A thirteen-year-old does not spend as much money as his parents suspect - at least not (21) according to the findings of recent survey, Money and Change. The survey (22) included three hundred teenagers, 13-17 years old from (23) all over Britain. By the time they (24) reach their teens, most children see their weekly allowance rise dramatically to an amazing national average of $5.14. Two thirds think they get (25) enough money but most expect to have to do something to get it. Although they have more cash, worry about debt is (26) increasing among teenagers. Therefore, the majority of children make an effort to save for the future. Greater access to cash (27) among teenagers does not, however, mean that they are more irresponsible as a result. The economic recession seems to have encouraged cautious attitudes to money, even in the case of children at these ages. Instead of wasting what pocket (28) money they have on sweets or magazines, the teenagers who took (29) part in the survey seem to respond to the situation by saving more than half (30) of their cash. 21. a. counting b. based on c. relying d. according to 22. a. included b. contained c. counted d. enclosed 23. a. entire b. all over c. complete d. the whole 24. a. reach b. get c. make d. arrive 25. a. acceptable b. adequate c. satisfactory d. enough 26. a. gaining b. heightening c. increasing d. building 1 27. a. among b. through c. between d. along 28. a. cash b. money c. change d. savings 29. a. part b. place c. share d. piece 30. a. from b. as c. of d. for Choose the best answer. 31.

An Arab traveler in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played "long, long ago". Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name "chess" is interesting. When one player is attacking the other's king, he says in English "check"; when the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says "check mate". These words come from Persian. "Shah mat" means "the king is dead". That is the game is over and one player has won. Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only more one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It would be interesting to know why this has happened! Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You don't have to be champion in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able to play many people at the same tine. The record was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world. 59. What is the main idea of the reading? a. Chess is an unusual game. b. The history of chess as an interesting game c.

One player has won the game when ________. a. he attacks the other player's king b. he says some Persian words c. he says "check" to the other player d. the other player's king could not move anywhere 62. All of the following are correct except a. All kinds of people can play chess b. Some people write to each other in order to play chess c. Only two people can play chess sitting at the same table d. The Russians lost the game played by radio 63. According to the old rules of the game a. the queen was the strongest piece on the board b. the king had to be attacked all the time c. the queen could move no more than one square at a time d. the king could move diagonally Choose the correct sentence which has the same meaning as the given one. 64.

The very first vertebrates, or animals with backbones, of which we have any fossil record, lived in the water. These vertebrates, the fish, were adapted to underwater living. Their streamlined bodies were covered with scales to reduce surface friction: they had muscular tails so that they could swim swiftly in such a dense medium as water; and they were endowed with gills for breathing underwater. Descendants of fish-type ancestors crossed the seashore barrier and accommodated themselves to life on land. As amphibians, they possessed limbs instead of fins and lungs instead of gills. But they never became completely free of the bonds that tied them to the water; even today many amphibians return to the water to lay their eggs. 8 Millions of years after the first clumsy amphibians crawled over the land, newer types of land dwellers appeared; these animals gave rise to the present-day reptiles and mammals. They were more completely converted for land dwelling, with bodies and biological activities far different from those of fish. With these special adaptations, mammals have been able to colonize the woods and meadows, the deserts and high mountains, often far removed from the sea. 61.
