Many processes within our bodies are timed to a cycle of about twenty-four hours. If the
body temperature is taken every hour or so throughout the day or night, each person is
found to have a certain pattern. The temperature rises and falls about two degress every
twenty-four hours. Some people‟s temperature rise very rapidly after awakening and then
begin to fall in the afternoon and evening. For others their temperatures rise very slowly at
first, reach a peak in the late afternoon or evening, and do not begin to drop until quite late in
the day. In all cases, a person‟s temperature is at its lowest during the time of sleep. People
tend to feel most wide-awake and can work best at the high point of their temperature. You
may have noticed that some people jump out of bed bright and early and are cheerful and
active during the early part of the day, then grow tired in the evening and go to bed quite
early. Others find it difficult to get up in the morning and do not seem able to get going very
well until afternoon; during the evening, they wide-awake and hate to go bed. People can
usually adjust to a different schedule if necessary, but it seems to be more difficult for some
people than for others.

Most words in the English language have more than one simple, or basic, meaning. One
example is the word diet. The most general definition of the noun is "a person's or a group's
usual food choices and habits." In a more specific definition, diet means "an eating plan with
only certain kinds or amounts of food." For instance, a diet is often a plan to lose weight.
And as a verb, diet means "go on a diet."
All over the world, the global dietincludes fast food— prepared items from inexpensive
restaurants, snack bars, or food stands. Some examples of typically American fast food are
hamburgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, fried chicken, and so on. Some types of international
fast foods might be German sausage and schnitzel, Italian, pizza and pasta, Mexican tacos
and burritos, Middle Eastern shish kebab and falafel, Japanese sushi and tempura, Chinese
eggrolls and noodles, and the like. The variety of fast foods available on the planet is
growing. Even so, this kind or style of nourishment is becoming universal, or worldwide.
Fast-food places usually prepare and serve the items quickly.
Many are part of fast-food chains (eating places with the same name and company owner).
For instance, the biggest and most famous American fast-food chain serves hamburgers in
every continent on the planet except Antarctica. In over 120 different countries, its 25,000
eating places have the same look. They have a similar atmosphere. The menu items may
not be exactly alike from one culture to another, but the style and taste of the foods don't.

Some people seem to have capacity for learning languages. They can pick up new
vocabulary, master rules or grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly
than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes
language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps if we take close look at these successful
language learners we may discover a few of the techniques which make language learning
easier for them.
First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on
the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting
for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are
good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong,
they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes. Successful language learning is active
learning.
Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a
chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them
when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat
what they hear or to say strange things; they are willing to make mistake and try again. When
communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more
important for them to learn to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every
word.
35. The passage mainly discusses about.....
a. The differences between successful and unsuccessful learners
b. The outstanding profiles on good learner
c. How to be successful language learner
d. Language learning strategies
e. How to learn foreign language
36. The sentence best describes the main idea of the passage is....
a. Being independent learner is more important
b. Learning new language is easy
c. Most language learner are independent and active
d. Becoming successful language learner is difficult
e. Successful learners need strong effort
37. The closest meaning of the word „pick up‟ in paragraph 1 is....
a. Learn
b. Take
c. Use
d. Make
e. Define

Although the official position of the medical profession is to maintain life indefinitely,
regardless of the condition of the patient, but with certain cases, euthanasia, practice of
ending a life so as to release an individual from intolerable diseases, should be
administrated. I believe that Euthanasia should be legalized because of that option of dying.
People say that there should be an option to live, but I think that there should also be an
option to die. Many also think that they should stay alive because they do not want for their
own reason. Why not put those out of their suffering, if the pain that one goes through is
extremely painful why not let them die.
Many states have laws that state the condition of when a person is decreased. State believe
that they should authorize the death of an individual when it is not really impossible to safe
them. I believe that there should be a choice of death or life. I am not saying who should
make the decision, but all I am saying is that Euthanasia should be legalized.

Some people seem to have capacity for learning languages. They can pick up new
vocabulary, master rules or grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly
than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes
language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps if we take close look at these successful
language learners we may discover a few of the techniques which make language learning
easier for them.
First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on
the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting
for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are
good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong,
they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes. Successful language learning is active
learning.
Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a
chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them
when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat
what they hear or to say strange things; they are willing to make mistake and try again. When
communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more
important for them to learn to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every
word.

Although the official position of the medical profession is to maintain life indefinitely,
regardless of the condition of the patient, but with certain cases, euthanasia, practice of
ending a life so as to release an individual from intolerable diseases, should be
administrated. I believe that Euthanasia should be legalized because of that option of dying.
People say that there should be an option to live, but I think that there should also be an
option to die. Many also think that they should stay alive because they do not want for their
own reason. Why not put those out of their suffering, if the pain that one goes through is
extremely painful why not let them die.
Many states have laws that state the condition of when a person is decreased. State believe
that they should authorize the death of an individual when it is not really impossible to safe
them. I believe that there should be a choice of death or life. I am not saying who should
make the decision, but all I am saying is that Euthanasia should be legalized.
