What do you think of when you hear the word "zoo?" Do you picture a nice habitat or a spacious enclosure? Perhaps you think a zoo is a vacation for animals before they are returned to the wild? These ideas couldn't be further from the truth. Many animals who live in zoos never return to the wild. Zoos are ultimately harmful to animals for three main reasons. First, zoos breed animals inhumanely. Second, they do not effectively help animals get back into the wild. Third, they do not provide enough resources for the animals in their care. For these reasons, zoos should be shut down and banned, or stopped altogether.

Which supporting detail BEST supports the main idea that zoos should be banned?

Today, there are more than 3.3 million Smiths living in the United States and perhaps another million Smiths living in other English-speaking countries worldwide.

An electronic calculator is a small, portable electronic device used to perform both arithmetic operations and complex mathematical operations.

The first solid electronic calculator was created in the 1960s, building on the extensive history of tools such as the abacus (developed around 2000 BC), and the mechanical calculator (developed in the 17^th century AD). It was developed in parallel with the analog computers of the day.

In addition to general purpose of calculators, there are those designed for specific markets, for example, there are scientific calculators which include trigonometric and statistical calculations. Some calculators even have the ability to do computer algebra. Graphing calculators can be used to graph functions defined on the real line, or higher dimensional Euclidean space.

What is the meaning of “extensive” in the second paragraph?

Read the passage carefully and answer the question that follows.

Curiosity is as clear and definite as any of our urges. We wonder what is in a sealed telegram or in a letter which someone else is absorbed or what is being said in the telephone booth or in low conversation. This inquisitiveness is vastly stimulated by jealousy. Suspicion or any hint that we ourselves are directly or indirectly involved in. But there appears to be a fair amount of personal interest in other people's affairs even when they do not concern us except as a mystery to be unraveled or a tale to be told. The reports of a divorce suit will have news 'value' for many weeks; They constitute a story like a novel, a play or a moving picture. This is not an example of pure curiosity. However, since we readily identify ourselves with others' their joys and despair then become our own concern.

Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

Economist: Every business strives to increase its

productivity, for this increases profits for the

owners and the likelihood that the business will

survive. But not all efforts to increase

productivity are beneficial to the business as a

whole. Often, attempts to increase productivity

decrease the number of employees, which clearly

harms the dismissed employees as well as the

sense of security of the retained employees.

Which one of the following most accurately expresses

the main conclusion of the economist’s argument?

A century in certain ways is like a life, and as the end

of a century approaches, people behave toward that

century much as someone who is nearing the end of

life does toward that life. So just as people in their last

years spend much time looking back on the events of

their life, people at a century’s end _______.

Which one of the following most logically completes

the argument?

Double-blind techniques should be used whenever

possible in scientific experiments. They help prevent

the misinterpretations that often arise due to

expectations and opinions that scientists already hold,

and clearly scientists should be extremely diligent in

trying to avoid such misinterpretations.

Which one of the following most accurately expresses

the main conclusion of the argument?

A cup of raw milk, after being heated in a microwave

oven to 50 degrees Celsius, contains half its initial

concentration of a particular enzyme, lysozyme. If,

however, the milk reaches that temperature through

exposure to a conventional heat source of 50 degrees

Celsius, it will contain nearly all of its initial

concentration of the enzyme. Therefore, what destroys

the enzyme is not heat but microwaves, which generate

heat.

Which one of the following, if true, most seriously

weakens the argument?

A recent study found that people who drink coffee daily have higher productivity at work. Therefore, drinking coffee improves work performance. Which of the following, if true, most weakens the argument?

CR1.Will power is the key to success and accomplishment. It requires great determination. Laziness and procrastination are the main obstacles of will power. Perseverance and patience are some of the basic requirements for achieving success. What it needs is the inner power which overcomes the desire of indulging in all the useless and meaningless habits. This needs the inner strength to overcome the inner emotional and mental resistance. Will power is about…

CR2. Self-discipline is the first step towards achieving will power. To be disciplined, one should be consistent. For example, you wish to do well in your exam because you know how good it is for your future and for what you can achieve afterwards. Unfortunately, you feel lazy and prefer to do something else, such as playing computer games, going online chatting with friends, or watching TV instead. You might be aware that you need to change your studying habits or stop procrastinating, but there is a lack of inner power and consistency to change these habits. We often say to ourselves how we wish we had the will power and self-discipline, but we tend to quit after a short period of time. We tend to give up things easily when obstacles occur. What we need is self-discipline which enables us to withstand hardships and difficulties. Besides self-discipline, you also require time and effort. When we are lazy, we….

CR4. Will power requires strength and determination and it gets stronger by holding back and not allowing the expression of unimportant, unnecessary and unhealthy thoughts, feelings, actions and reactions Will power is like a battery stored within us and is always available at the time of need. We should be conscious of its benefits. Unfortunately, many people do nothing about it even though we acknowledge that the adoption of will power in life will help us greatly. The author use “battery” to emphasis that our will power...

3.4 Birds are the most visible wildlife and so they are great indicators of how healthy our environment is. When they face extinction, our survival is also at stake. The biggest threat to birds is the loss of their natural habitat due to human activity. Thus, conservation efforts are vital to look after wild areas and also set up sanctuaries for both local species and migratory birds. Langkawi, the Hornbill Island of the World, has 221 bird species along its coast and in the forested interior. Large areas of lush natural vegetation are protected and a geopark encourages eco tourism activities. Tangung Tuan, Port Dickson has a gazetted forest reserve and is the spot for the annual migratory raptor watch. We have to care for our feathered friends.

4.1 A wolf devoured his prey so ravenously that a bone got stuck in his throat, and in extreme agony, he ran and howled throughout the forest, beseeching every animal he met to pull out the bone. He even offered a generous prize to anyone who succeeded in pulling it out. Moved by his pleas as well as the prospect of the reward, a crane ventured her long neck down the wolf’s throat and drew out the bone. She then modestly asked for the promised reward, but the wolf just grinned and bared his teeth.

“Ungrateful creature!” he replied with seeming indignation. “How dare you ask for any other reward than your life? After all, you’re among the very few who can say that you’ve put your head into the jaws of a wolf and were permitted to draw it out in safety.”

5.As the saying goes, where there is will, there is a way. Hence, one of the effective ways to improve our will power is to perform certain activities which we would rather avoid doing. We should overcome our subconscious resistance and train our mind to obey us. When we do that, our thought processes will get stronger and we will attain our will power eventually. We should always say ‘yes’ to will power and most of all should discipline ourselves. We will feel more powerful in taking charge of ourselves and our surroundings with will power and self-discipline.

What does the expression ‘where there is will, there is a way’ mean?
