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.

COLORS AND EMOTIONS

Colors are one of the most exciting experiences in life. I love them, and they are just as important to me as emotions are. Have you ever wondered how the two are so intimately related?

Color directly affects your emotions. Color both reflects the current state of your emotions, and is something that you can use to improve or change your emotions. The color that you choose to wear either reflects your current state of being, or reflects the color or emotion that you need.

The colors that you wear affect you much more than they affect the people around you. Of course they also affect anyone who looks at or sees you, but you are the one saturated with the color all day! I even choose items around me based on their color. In the morning, I choose my clothes based on the color or emotion that I need for the day. So you can consciously use color to control the emotions that you are exposed to, which can help you to feel better.

Colors, sound, and emotions are all vibrations. Emotions are literally energy in motion; they are meant to move and flow. This is the reason why real feelings are the fastest way to get your energy in motion. Also, flowing energy is exactly what creates healthy cells in your body. So, the fastest way to be healthy is to be open to your real feelings. Alternately, the fastest way to create disease is to inhibit your emotions.

Question 36: What is the main idea of the  passage?

    A. Colorful clothes can change your mood.  

    B.   Emotions and colors are closely related to each  other.

    C. Colors can help you become healthy.

    D. Colors are one of the most exciting.

Question 37: Which of the following can be affected by color?

    A. Your need for thrills        B. Your friend’s feeling

    C. Your appetite            D. Your mood

Question 38: According to this passage, what creates  disease?

    A. Wearing the color black        B. Exposing yourself to bright colors.

    C. Being open to your emotions    D. Inhibiting your emotions

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 43 to 50.

Long before they can actually speak, babies pay special attention to the speech they hear around them. Within the first month of their lives, babies' responses to the sound of the human voice will be different from their responses to other sorts of auditory stimuli. They will stop crying when they hear a person talking, but not if they hear a bell or the sound of a rattle. At first, the sounds that an infant notices might be only those words that receive the heaviest emphasis and that often occur at the ends of utterances. By the time they are six or seven weeks old, babies can detect the difference between syllables pronounced with rising and falling inflections. Very soon, these differences in adult stress and intonation can influence babies' emotional states and behavior. Long before they develop actual language comprehension, babies can sense when an adult is playful or angry, attempting to initiate or terminate new behavior, and so on, merely on the basis of  cues such as the rate, volume, and melody of adult speech.

Adults make it as easy as they can for babies to pick up a language by exaggerating such cues. One researcher observed babies and their mothers in six diverse cultures and found that, in all six languages, the mothers used simplified syntax, short utterances and nonsense sounds, and transformed certain sounds into baby talk. Other investigators have noted that when mothers talk to babies who are only a few months old, they exaggerate the pitch, loudness, and intensity of their words. They also exaggerate their facial expressions, hold vowels longer, and emphasize certain words.

More significant for language development than their response to general intonation is observation that tiny babies can make relatively fine distinctions between speech sounds. In other words, babies enter the world with the ability to make precisely those perceptual discriminations that are necessary if they are to acquire aural language.

Babies obviously derive pleasure from sound input, too: even as young as nine months they will listen to songs or stories, although the words themselves are beyond their understanding. For babies, language is a sensory-motor delight rather than the route to prosaic meaning that it often is for adults.

Question 43: What does the passage mainly discuss?

  1. How babies differentiate between the sound of the humanvoice and other sounds.

  2. The differences between a baby’s and adult’s ability to comprehend language.

  3. How babies perceive and respond to the human voice in their earliest stages of language development.

  4. The response of babies to sounds other than the human voice.

Question 44:  Why does the author mention "a bell and a rattle" in paragraph 1?

A. To contrast the reactions of babies to human and nonhuman sounds

B. To give examples of sounds that will cause a baby to cry

C. To explain how babies distinguish between different nonhuman sounds

D. To give examples of typical toys that babies do not like

Question 45: The word “they” in the passage refers to ________.

    A. responses        B. sorts of auditory stimuli        C. the babies        D. sounds

Question 46: The passage mentions all of the followings as the ways adults modify their speech when talking to babies EXCEPT ______________.

A. giving all words equal emphasis 

B. speaking with shorter sentences  

C. speaking more loudly than normal   

D. using meaningless sounds                           

Question 47: The word "emphasize" is closest in meaning to ______________.

A. stress          B. repeat                 C. explain                       D. leave out      

Question 48: Which of the following can be inferred about the findings described in paragraph 2?

A. Babies who are exposed to more than one language can speak earlier than babies exposed to a single language.

B. Mothers from different cultures speak to their babies in similar ways.

C. Babies ignore facial expressions in comprehending aural language.

D. The mothers observed by the researchers were consciously teaching their babies to speak.

Question 49: What point does the author make to illustrate that babies are born with the ability to acquire language?

A. Babies begin to understand words in songs.

B. Babies exaggerate their own sounds and expressions.

C. Babies are more sensitive to sounds than are adults.

D. Babies notice even minor differences between speech sounds.

Question 50: According to the author, why do babies listen to songs and stories, even though they cannot understand them?

A. They understand the rhythm.                          

B. They enjoy the sound.                               

C. They can remember them easily.                      

D. They focus on the meaning of their parents' word.
