When

One day, we put on our swimming‐shorts before breakfast. Then, we ran down to the sea across the sand and jumped in. We were in the sea or on the beach until late at night.

Questions 26 to 28 refer to the following text.

Recycling is a collection, processing, and reuse of materials that would otherwise be thrown away. Materials ranging from precious metals to broken glass, from old newspapers to plastic spoons, can be recycled. The recycling process reclaims the original material and uses it in new products. In general, using recycled materials to make new products costs less and requires less energy than using new materials. Recycling can also reduce pollution, either by reducing the demand for high‐pollution alternatives or by minimizing the amount of pollution produced during the manufacturing process.

Paper products that can be recycled include cardboard containers, wrapping paper, and office paper. The most commonly recycled paper product is newsprint. In newspaper recycling, old newspapers are collected and searched for contaminants such as plastic bags and aluminum foil. The paper goes to a processing plant where it is mixed with hot water and turned into pulp in a machine that works much like a big kitchen blender. The pulp is screened and filtered to remove smaller contaminants. The pulp then goes to a large vat where the ink separates from the paper fibers and floats to the surface. The ink is skimmed off, dried and reused as ink or burned as boiler fuel. The cleaned pulp is mixed with new wood fibers to be made into paper again.

Questions 29 to 32 refer to the following text.

Should Americans be Forced to Use Public Transportation?

by Jack Davis

First, let me define what the question is and isn’t asking. It isn’t asking if we should all abandon cars right now, nor is it asking if we should abandon them completely, nor is it asking if every American should do so. It is asking whether some Americans should have to take public transit some of the time, and I would say yes.

Oil use and pollution aside, in some cities like Los Angeles and New York, there just isn’t room for any more roads, so in order for large cities to grow, they need more people to take public transit or risk permanent traffic jam. One bus can safely hold 40 people, so even at half capacity that’s nearly 20 cars’ worth of space in traffic cleared up, and nearly 20 parking spaces that don’t need to

be built. There are a lot of people that can take public transit with little inconvenience but simply don’t because they never have in the past. If residents in areas with plenty of transit had to buy transit passes as part of their property taxes, then they would have little excuse not to bus occasionally. A number of universities already bundle a ‘U‐Pass’ with their tuition fees, forcing their students to take the bus. When given the chance the majority of those students have voted to keep these programs.

A similar system in apartments where a portion of the tenants are not issued parking spaces in exchange for a discount on their rent would also be forcing people to use public transit. This is already being done with the assignment of one community car to several apartment tenants that arrange a schedule for the car, and this program gets many positive reviews.

So yes, I would say that Americans should be forced to use public transit, as Americans whom are already forced to do so find that it works well for them. Adapted from: www.helium.com

29. What does the writer suggest?

A. American should give up their cars.

B. The government should limit the number cars.

C. Americans should learn to use public transportations.

D. Americans should be forced to use public transportations.

E. The government should charge extra taxes for those who use cars.

30. The following is one of the writer’s suggestions in forcing people to use public transportations …

A. Make people buy transit passes as part of their property taxes.

B. Fine people who do not use public transportations.

C. Stop automobiles productions.

D. Limit the number of gasoline.

32. In the article you find the word “transit” a few times. What does it mean?

A. exit

B. stop

C. entrance

D. bus stop

E. transportation

Music and Lyrics Movie Review

Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant) is a washed‐up 80’s pop star who’s been reduced to working the nostalgia circuit at county fairs and amusement parks. The charismatic and talented musician gets a chance at a comeback when reigning diva Cora Corman (Haley Bennett) invites him to write and record a duet with her, but there’s a problem‐‐Alex hasn’t written a song in years, he’s never written lyrics, and he has to come up with a hit in a matter of days, enter Sophie Fisher (Drew Barrymore), Alex’s attractively quirky lady, whose flair for words strikes a chord with the struggling songwriter. On the rebound from a bad relationship, Sophie is reluctant to collaborate with anyone, especially commitment‐probe Alex. As their chemistry heats up at the piano and under it, Alex and Sophie will have to face their fears‐‐and the music‐‐if they want to find the love and success they both deserve.

Questions 36 to 38 refer to the following text.

Should Students Take Part‐time Jobs?

One of the biggest things a student must figure out upon entering school is what to do with all that time. Free to schedule as they please and free from the obligations of life at home, students find themselves with a wealth of time they may or may not have. There are things which you might consider working. First of all, if you want to be cool and go out with your classmates and buy some cool stuff, well you need money! By getting a job, you get money. Of course, you have to work for it, but still, it can ‐ and probably will be useful. There is not only money to consider though. Experience is an important asset for after finishing your school. When you work during your school year and add it to your resume, it will show your future employers that you are able to manage to pursue two activities at the same time, or more if you are involved elsewhere. Another interesting thing to consider is the contacts you might make by working. By contacts, I mean people that can be useful to you later in life. If you have different jobs, you make new references you can later add to your CV along with the experience. Also, if you are lucky enough to get a job in your area of studies, it may later become a permanent job.

The main disadvantage on your life is that you will have less time for schoolwork ‐ and social life of course. This also means you get less free time to just hang out or party or do other stuff than work and study. This is an important part of your life if you do not want to go all crazy! It is also important if you want to be cool. Having a job can also add another source of stress to your life. Depending on the type of job you are looking for, you may get a boss that always wants more hours and presses you to be more available. One of the things you can do is to set yourself a maximum number of hours you want to work per week and make this clear with your employer at the beginning of the year.

My biggest recommendation is not to rush into anything. It’s perfectly acceptable to spend the first few weeks of school adjusting and having fun, and then slide a job into the mix when you’ve grown comfortable with everything else. Finally, never allow an outside job to get in the way of your health and school years in general. While work may keep you motivated and get you needed money, it’s not worth losing your education or well‐being over. Obtain what you need, but if you feel yourself slipping take some time off, or find a better place to work. You’ll have plenty of time to work post school.

Adapted from: www.epinions.com

37. The followings are the disadvantages of taking part‐time jobs, except …

A. You will have less time for your social life.

B. You may get a boss that always presses you.

C. You will get another source of stress to your life.

D. You will have less free time to hang out with your friends.

E. You can prove that you can manage to pursue two activities at the same time.

38. What does the word ‘they’ in paragraph 1 line 2 refer to?

A. schools

B. students

C. the readers

D. cool stuff

E. the reader and the writer

Questions 39 to 41 refer to the following text.

There is a holiday called Labor Thanksgiving Day (Kinrô kansha no hi) in Japan. It is a national holiday in Japan and it takes place annually on November 23. It is held as an occasion for commemorating labor and production and giving one another thanks. Events are held throughout Japan in this holiday, such as Nagano Labor Festival. The event encourages thinking about the environment, peace, and human rights. It is not unusual for early grade elementary students to create drawings for the holiday and give them as gifts to local kobans, or police stations.

Labor Thanksgiving Day is actually the modern version for an ancient rice harvest festival known as Niiname‐sai, believed to have been held as long ago as November of 678. Traditionally, it celebrated the year’s hard work; during the Niiname‐sai ceremony, the Emperor would dedicate the year’s harvest to kami (spirits), and taste the rice for the first time.

The modern holiday was established after World War II in 1948 as a day to mark some of the changes of the postwar constitution of Japan, including fundamental human rights and the expansion of workers’ rights. Currently Niiname‐sai is held privately by the Imperial Family while Labor Thanksgiving Day has become a national holiday.
