Wei Qi or Go, as it is commonly known outside of China, is considered by most Oriental game experts to be the world's greatest strategic skill game, far surpassing chess in it's complexity and scope. Most people who have played it would agree with this conclusion and, unlike chess, no computer program has yet been written which has been able to compete with the best Go players. Of all the serious board games, Go has the fewest rules and yet, the game itself is the most intellectually challenging. The mathematical elegance of the rules is complemented by the great beauty of the boards and stones - of all board games in the world, Go has been raised by the Japanese to a pinnacle of aesthetic beauty.

50- It's obvious from the passage that,
This report examines the irreversible effects of cigarette smoking on various organ systems and challenges the notion that a few years of exposure to smoking will have no lasting adverse consequences. Our hope is to discourage young people from taking up this deadly habit by appealing to their common sense and better judgement, thereby allowing them to choose for themselves not to smoke. We will not recite the familiar litany of smoking-related health problems such as emphysema, cancer, and heart disease. Rather, we will show that smoking cigarettes for as few as five years can have a permanent effect on the lungs, the heart, the eyes, the throat, etc. — even if the smoker quits. We do not mean to dishearten long-term smokers.

diseases

Like so much of the earth's bounty, water is unevenly distributed. While people in some parts of the world pile up sandbags to control seasonal floods or struggle to dry out after severe storms, others either shrivel and die or move as an environmental refugees. In Canada -which has about the same amount of water as China but less than 2.5% of its population - the resource has been labelled as "blue gold." In parched Botswana, dominated by the Kalahari Desert, water is so precious that the national currency is called pula - "rain" in the Setswana language
54- It's obvious from the passage that, A) Canada is luckier than China in that its
population is less than China's B) most of the important resources on
earth are not found at similar amounts everywhere
C) the bounties on earth are unjustly distributed

E) people living in Botswana suffer from severe storms
55- The main idea of the passage is ,
Over the past few decades, the number of great white sharks' attacks has increased steadily, partly because more people are using the water. But fatal attacks, which have occured only 60 times in the past 100 years, have decreased. Forty years ago nearly a quarter of all attack victims died; today 90 percent survive. Improvements in emergency medical care have saved many lives, but some biologists believe that sharks may simply change their minds when they realise they have made a mistake. In other words, they stop eating-their victim when they know it isn't their normal prey.
57- It can be understood from the passage that the growth in great white sharks' attacks...
A) has led to an increase in illegal hunting in the oceans
B) is expected to continue as long as man keeps on using the seas
C) remains steady partially because people have begun taking more precautions D) is attributed, to some extent, to the
increasing number of people using the water

B) to show the struggle for water around the world
C) to indicate how environmental conditions differ from place to place D) to show that China is in urgent need of
water
E) to illustrate the conditions of the most unfortunate people in the world 56- We can infer from the passage that...
A) Canada is a good country for refugees B) Canada has more water than China A) hot and arid weather affects Canada
very badly
B) floods inundate some parts of the world
E) water is attached great importance both in Canada and Botswana
A) nobody ever dies from great white attacks
B) a century ago sharks frequently attacked human beings
C) there have been some deaths because of shark attacks

59- The author has made it clear that A) the violence by sharks has ceased over
the past four decades

catch

Generally, adults need to sleep one hour for every two hours awake, which means the most need about eight hours of sleep a night. Of course, some people need more and some less. Children and teenagers need an average of about ten hours. The brain keeps an exact accounting of how much sleep it is owed. My colleagues and 1 coined the term sleep debt because accumulated lost sleep is like a monetary debt: it must be paid back. If you get an hour less than a full night's sleep, you carry an hour of sleep debt into the next day - and your tendency to fall asleep during the time becomes stronger. 60- It's implied in the passage that
A) one should not waste time sleeping B) half of twenty-four hours is spent
asleep
C) children become overcome by sleep if they don't sleep sufficiently
D) a person spends approximately one-third of his life asleep

precise biological clock which regulates sleeping and waking C) is one of the most important organs in
our body

if we don't meet our sleep needs sufficiently,...
A) the brain cannot carry out its functions properly
B) we will have great difficulty getting on well with our friends
C) our brain will lack its most crucial properties
D) it is very probable that we will feel sleepy during the day
E) we will have a tendency to sleep whenever and wherever possible
Gulliver's TVavelswas not really a children's book, but it had long been seen as a children's story: little people, big people, floating island, talking horses... There was no separate literature for children at the time and whatever came to hand may have been drafted to the purpose. Over time what was considered fit for children has changed. Most modern children's and school editions of the Travels are edited in one way or another. For younger children, the tale is often retold in a simpler, modern idiom, and some episodes, sometimes the whole third and fourth books, are eliminated. School versions may use Swift's original text and include all four parts, but remove the "nasty bits" considered inappropriate for young readers.
63- It's obvious from the passage that today, A) the Travels is considered inappropriate
for children

during the passage of time

read the Travels

C) the purpose of Gulliver's Travels had not been understood correctly
D) the Travels is not suitable for young readers
E) it's hard to understand the main idea of the Travels
The difference in temperatures between the tropics and the poles drives the global climate system. The excess heat that collects in the tropics is dissipated at the poles, about half of it through what has been nicknamed the ocean conveyor, a vast deepwater current equivalent to 100 Amazon Rivers. Much of the rest of the heat is conveyed as energy in the storms that move north from the tropics, the vigour of this planetary circulatory system may diminish, radically altering prevailing winds, ocean currents and rainfall patterns. One consequence: grain production in the breadbaskets of the U.S. and Canada could be in jeopardy if rainfall becomes less steady and predictable. Already, severe and unpredictable storms across the northern hemisphere may be a sign that the global system is changing.

circulatory system

production rate in the U.S. and Canada 68- As a result of the drastic changes in the
planetary circulatory system... A) grain production in the U.S. and
Canada is facing a danger
