[FONT=&quot]Eliminating poverty is largely a matter of helping children born into poverty to rise out of it. Once families escape from poverty they do not fall back into it. Middle-class children rarely end up poor. The primary reason poor children do not escape from poverty is that they do not acquire basic mental skills. They cannot read, write, calculate or articulate. Lacking these skills, they cannot get or keep a well-paid job. The best mechanism for breaking this vicious circle is to provide the poor with better educational opportunities. Since children born into poor homes do not acquire the skills they need from their parents, they must be taught these skills in school.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]83.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] The writer makes the point that, once people have overcome poverty, ____[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A) the skills of reading and writing cease to be important for them.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B) they cease to mix socially with the poor.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C) they soon learn to adopt middle-class manners and ways.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]84.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] According to the writer, if poverty is to be overcome, ____[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A) the only effective means for this would be to provide better education.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B) more well-paid jobs should be offered to the poor.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C) all children, regardless of their social class, should receive the same formal education.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]D) middle-class children should be given better educational opportunities.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]E) the education of children should be based on mental skills alone. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]85.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] The main argument of the passage is that ____ [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A)he elimination of poverty can only be achieved if the poor and the rich attend the same school.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B)middle-class children do not need to learn basic mental skills at school, since they learn them at home.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C)he children of the poor must learn basic mental skills at school so that they can escape from poverty.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Work is central in British culture. When someone asks one ‘What do you do?’, they really mean ‘What work do you do?’. When a woman is asked ‘Do you work?’, what is meant is ‘Are you doing a paid job?’. Yet many people without a paid job work at other kinds of productive activities. Women, notably, perform an unpaid ‘double shift’ in the home as housekeepers and mothers. To confine the term ‘work’ to paid employment, therefore, restricts it far too narrowly. There are many other kinds of work, some of which can take more time and energy than we put into our paid employment from the voluntary working in the garden to repairs to the house or the car. In other cultures, work is not as highly valued as this; some people value leisure more, and work only as much as they need in order to provide basic necessities. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]89.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] The writer suggests that people tend to regard the word ‘work’ as ____ [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A) referring only to paid employment.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B) being limited only to voluntary work.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C) relating only to physical effort.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]D) interchangeable with “leisure”.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]E) an activity with an end-product. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]90.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] The writer points out that, unlike the case in Britain, in some cultures ____ [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A) work in any form is highly respected.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B) unpaid activities such as housework make up virtually the whole of a woman’s day.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C) voluntary work is held in high respect.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Alcohol, nicotine and caffeine are psychoactive drugs that are freely available in our society. Their wide spread use shows that they provide a common solution to the problems of vast numbers of individuals. The extent and the nature of their use is not , however, uniform but varies with the particular sub-culture involved. To take alcohol, for example, there are wide differences between the drinking habits and rituals of merchant, seamen and businessmen, between Italians and Jews. Each sub-group in society will have a conception of what the permissible and desirable effects of alcohol are, how much it is necessary to drink to achieve this desired state; what is normal and what is deviant drinking behaviour.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]In the early 1970s, there was a great deal of optimism about improving women’s position, ending male privilege and doing away with gender divisions and even gender difference. Equal opportunities legislation was enacted in many countries, and the voice of the women’s movement was heard criticising discrimination between the sexes in every sphere of working life. Now it is clear that legislation can make only a marginal difference to entrenched patterns of job segregation and inequality. The voices of feminism, too, are varied; some demand equality with men while others pursue the revaluation of women’s skills and ‘womanly’ virtues.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]95.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] It is pointed out in the passage that many people in the early 1970s ____ .[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]All of us are born, all of us will die; but there is infinite variety in the nature and circumstances of these two events themselves and in what happens to our bodies and our minds in between. Some individuals, for example, are born without difficulty and grow uninterruptedly during childhood and adolescence, suffering at worst only minor infectious diseases and accidents. As adults, they reproduce their kind. They age gradually until, in extreme old age, they die peacefully without pain or discomfort. This is an idealised picture of how we would like things to be, rather than the reality that most people experience. Death comes to many of us, not when we are old, but during or before birth, in infancy, in adolescence, in early adulthood or in middle age.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]98.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] One point made by the author in this passage is that we, as human beings, ____ .[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A) must face the fact that accidents in old age are inevitable[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B) have all similar opportunities but use them differently[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C) all enjoy a happy childhood and a healthy adolescence[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]D) ought to take certain measures to avoid infections diseases in childhood[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]E) have widely differing experiences of birth, life and death[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]99.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] The writer points out that, though most people expect life to be free of care and death easy, ____ .[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A) this is not likely to happen either in adolescence or in adulthood[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]B) they have to strive hard to attain this idealised condition[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]C) this is, in fact, very rarely the case[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]D) for many people a worthwhile life has more to it than this[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]E) this is seldom the case except in old age[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]C) the early happy years of our lives, and the later tragic ones[/FONT]
