(20 pts)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 | It was the human factor that contributes to the absolute majority of road accidents which involves the tremendous toll of fatalities each year. Other, less decisive, causes are vehicle functions or road shortcomings. Speeding motorists are notorious about failing to give way at junctions, judging the situation on the road or being unable to accurately estimate the distance while overtaking the “snailpacers” ahead. Drinkers who settle behind the wheel after one glass or two may be running the risk of causing a tragedy through their impairing perception, which is not so rare a case, again. Unfortunately, it is much simpler to introduce the necessary alterations in the traffic system that change the behavioural patterns of drivers. There are voices that more severe disciplinary resolutions ought to put into practice if the vehicle users are to benefit from greater security on the road. The idea of producing safe road users through pre-school parental instruction or through incorporating the safety regulations for school curriculum has been widely acclaimed in many communities and are expected to yield the required results as the first step in bettering the qualifications of the future drivers and acquaint them with the potential hazards that may arise en route. |

SOME OF THE PROBLEMS FACING LEARNERS OF ENGLISH.
Today I’d like to talk about some of the problems that students face when follow a course of study through the medium of English- if English is not their mother’s tongue.
The problems can be divided into three board categories: psychological, cultural or linguistic. The first two categories main affect those who come to study in Britain. I’ll comment only brief on these two categories and then spend most of the time to look at linguistic difficulties which apply to everyone. Some of the common psychological problem really involve fear of the unknown: in example, whether one's academic studies will be too difficult. Looking at the cultural problem, we can see that some of them are of a very practical nature, e.g arranging satisfactory accommodations. Others are much easier to define.

Section C: READING
I. Read the text and choose the best option to answer the question.
The prison in the usa
In the United States today there are more than half a million criminals serving time in prison. Most prisoners are male high-school dropouts between the ages of 18 and 19. Even more shocking in the fact that the number and rate of imprisonment has more than doubled over the past twenty years, and the recidivism - that is, the rate for rearest - is more than 60 percent.
Although the stated goal of most prison systems, on both federal and state levels, is to rehabiliatate the inmates and reintagrate them into society, the systems themselves do not support such a result. Prisons are usually geographically or psychologically isolated and terribly overcrowded. Even in the more enlightened prisons, only one-third of the inmates have vocational training opportunities or work release options.
If prisons are indeed to achieve the goal of rehabilitating offenders, then the prisons themselves will have to change. First, they will have to be smaller, housing no more than five hundred prisoners. Second, they will have to be built in or near population centers with community resources available for gradual reintegration into society. Finally, prison programs must be restructured to include work release and vocational and academic training that promises carry over into the inmate’s life after release. Models for such collaborative efforts between the criminal justice system and the community already exist in several hundred half-way houses throughout the country.
1. What is the author’s main point?
A. Prisons must be restructured if they are to accomplish the goal of rehabilitation.
B. Models for community collaboration have been successful.
C. Most of the criminals serving time in prison are high-school dropouts.
D. The criminal justice system must establish a better goal.
2. According to the author, how many prisoners are offered training or work release?
A. None B. 33.33 percent C. 50 percent D. 60 percent
3. The author mentions all the following as necessary to prison reform EXCEPT
A. newer buildings C. vocational training
B. smaller institutions D.collaboration with the community
4. The word “recidivism” in line 4 refers to
A. all people who are imprisoned
B. people who return to prison after release
C. people who drop out of high school
D. people who have been in prison for a long time
5. The paragraph following this passage most probably discusses
A. the goals of most state and federal prisons
B. the cost of prison reform
C. examples of models for community collaboration
D. problems with the current criminal justice system
