Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the past decades, there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the middle of the 20th century would probably have been in her early twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, several of whom lived till they were only five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which customs, opportunities and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years, and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her world is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods.

This important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they got married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before the first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full- or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage: with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for example, which 'once roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct.

What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in personal satisfaction. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world's ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival - and the survival of our planet.

Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products made from endangered species. This has' had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed.

Question 39. What is the main topic of the passage?

A. International boycotts B. The Bengal tiger

C. Problems with industrialization D. Endangered species

Question 40. According to the passage, Bengal tigers__________.

A. became extinct B. will become popular

C. have increased in popularity D. are an endangered species

Question 42. The word “they” in the third paragraph refers to ______.

A. animal reserves B. some countries C. problems D. ways

Question 43. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to protect animals from extinction?

A. Establish wildlife reserves

B. Raise money to invest in equipment and patrol.

C. Introduce laws to prohibit the killing of endangered animals.

D. boycott animal products

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Along with the rapid growth of the national economy and increased living standards, the use of disposables and over-packaged products has become common, which causes a waste of resources, and brings about a negative impact on the environment. Many countries have started to act to control the use of disposables and over-packaged, products.

In 1994, the Ministry of Environment in Korea has put restrictions on packaging methods. Korea's legal regulations require businesses to restrict their use of disposable products by reducing unnecessary packaging materials or not giving them out to customers for free. The use of materials are difficult to recycle is also prohibited.

Thanks to development of technology, biodegradable materials were invented to produce packaging products. They are able to decay naturally by bacteria. Therefore, biodegradable packaging helps to limit the amount of harmful chemicals released into the environment. In 2008, biodegradable bags were put in use in most of the supermarkets in Korea. Paper cups and paper bags are also given to shoppers for free, but in a limited use.

The ministry also established the detailed Guidelines on the Restrictions of Use of Disposable Products in order to ensure that local governments could conduct systematic checks and inspections of businesses, and implemented reductions on over-packaged products during national holidays, and school admission and graduation seasons.

II. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.

Preparation is a key to a successful interview. Does the idea of going to a job interview make you feel a little nervous? Many people find that it is the hardest part of the employing process. But it is not really true. The more you prepare and practice, the more comfortable you will feel. You should find out as much as possible about the company before you go to the interview. Understand the products that they produce and the services that they provide. It is also good to know who the customers are and who the major competitors are. Practice makes perfect. It will also make you feel more confident and relaxed. So, practice your answers to common questions. Make a list of questions to ask, too. Almost all interviewers will ask if you have questions. This is a great opportunity for you to show your keenness, enthusiasm, and knowledge.

Make a great impression. The interview is your chance to show that you are the best person for the job. Your application or résumé has already exhibited that you are qualified. Now it is up to you to show how your skills and experience match this position and this company. The employer will be looking and listening to determine if you are a good fit. He/she will be looking for a number of different qualities, in addition to the skills that you possess. To make the best impression, dress appropriately; express your strengths; arrive early, by about 10-15 minutes; be enthusiastic; shake hands firmly; be an active listener; sit up straight and maintain eye contact; and ask questions.

After the interview, follow up with a thank-you note. This is a chance for you to restate your interest and how you can benefit the company. Your best bet is to try to time it so that the note gets there before the hiring decision is made. You should also follow up with a phone call if you do not hear back from the employer within the specified time.

28. The pronoun it refers to ________.

A. the job B. the interview C. the interviewer D. the preparation

29. What does the writer advise you to practice?
