Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word(s) CLOSEST in meaning to the 
 Page 1 of 5 viruses show no traces of biological activity by themselves. Unlike bacteria, they are not living agents in the 
strictest sense Viruses are very simple pieces of organic material composed only of nucleic acid, either DNA 
or RNA, enclosed in a coat of protein made up of simple structural units (Some viruses also contain 
carbohydrates and lipids.) They are parasites, requiring human, animal, or plant cells to live. The virus 
replicates by attaching to a cell and injecting its nucleic acid. Once inside the cell, the DNA or RNA that 
contains the virus genetic information takes over the cell's biological machinery, and the cell begins to 
manufacture viral proteins rather than its own.

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 from 36 to 42. 
 In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a greater 
priority on harnessing alternative energy sources. Fortunately, there are a number of readily available, 
renewable resources that are both cost-effective and earth-friendly. Two such resources are solar power and 
geothermal power. Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet 
the needs of worldwide energy consumption 6,000 times over. And solar energy is easily harnessed through 
the use of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into electricity. In the United States alone, more than 100,000 
homes are equipped with solar electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles. And in other parts 
of the world, including many developing countries, the use of solar systems is growing steadily. Another 
alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power, which creates 
energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth. Hot water and steam that are trapped in 
underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which produces electricity. 
Geothermal energy is 50,000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources. And 
as with solar power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple. A prime example of 
effective geothermal use is in Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity, where over 80 percent of private 
homes are heated by geothermal power. Solar and geothermal energy are just two of a number of promising 
renewable alternatives to conventional energy sources. The time is long overdue to invest in the development 
and use of alternative energy on a global scale. 
Question 36. What is the main topic of this passage? 
 A. The benefits of solar and wind power over conventional energy sources. 
 B. How energy resources are tapped from nature. 
 C. Two types of alternative energy sources that should be further utilized. 
 D. Examples of the use of energy sources worldwide. 
Question 37. According to the passage, why should we consider using alternative energy sources? 
 A. Because fossil fuels are no longer available. 
 B. Because global warming has increased the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth. 
 C. Because conventional energy resources are being depleted, and they cause environmental damage. 
 D. Because they are free and available worldwide 
Question 38. Which of the following words could best replace the word "harnessing"? 
 Page 3 of 5 Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that best combines each pair of 
sentence in the following questions.
Question 49. I put the phone down. My boss rang back right after. 
 A. Hardly had my boss rung back when I put the phone down.
 B. No sooner had I put the phone down than my boss rang back.
 C. Only after my boss had rung back did I put the phone down. 
 D. I had put the phone down as soon as my boss rang back.
Question 50. I don’t study English well. I can’t get a good job.
 A. If only I studied English well so that I could get a good job.
 B. As long as I study English well, I can get a good job.
 C. To study English well, I want to get a good job.
 D. If I could get a good job, I would study English well.
