CLOSE (1*15=15)
Decide which of the choices given below would best complete the passage if inserted in the
corresponding blanks. Mark the best choice for each blank on your answer.
Although
most
people
believe
it
is
wrong
to
lie,
it
is
doubtful
that
anyone
can
go
through his
entire life without
tell
a lie. But
are
all lies equally
wrong? Or are some lies
actually (1) ____? To answer this we must examine the four basic types of lies. Each type is
told for different reason.
The first, and probably the most common type of lie, is the lie of (2) ____. This is the
type
of
lie
we
tell
to
make
(3)
____
sound
more
interesting.
Or
we
may
lie
about
our
achievements to make ourselves seem more intelligent or clever. We justify this type of lie
by (4) ____ ourselves that we can not harm anyone. But there is one disadvantage of this
type of lie. If we are found out, we are (5) ____ feeling like a fool and wondering why we
(6) ____ to lie about something so unimportant.
The
second
type
of
lie
is
told
to
avoid
(7)
____
someone.
This
type
of
lie
is
often
considered necessary. When someone asked,
“
Do you like my new dress?
”
we (8) ____ to
answer yes because we know that is what she wants to hear. But even this type of lie is not
always wise. For example, if a patient asks his doctor if he has terminal cancer, he wants
and expects an (9) ____ answer is most cases.
The third type of lie is the exact opposite of the second. It is the (10) ____ malicious lie
told for the express purpose of hurting someone. Few (11) ____ adults tell this kind of lie,
but it is fairly common among children. They may shout
“
I hate you
”
at another child one
day but be back playing with him the next day.
The last type of lie is the one we tell to cover up something we should or should not
have done in the first place. Rather than (12) ____ we made a mistake, we lie about it. This
is the type of lie that gets us most into trouble. No one has a good enough memory to tell his
type of lie. One lie (13) ____ to another. Then before we know it, we have forgotten what
we said to whom, and we are afraid to open our month (14) ____ fear that we will put our
foot in it. Then we realize what is mean by the phrase,
“
Oh, what a tangled web we (15)

READING COMPREHENSION (2*15=30)
In this section there are three passages followed by questions or unfinished statements,
each with four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is
the best answer.
Mark your answers on your answer sheet.
TEXT A
Some 2,400 miners were on the day shift last Tuesday morning at the Kinross gold mine,
65 miles from Johannesburg. A welding team was repairing a broken track for one of the
trains that help carry gold ore to the surface. Suddenly, an acetylene tank sparked and flared
flames swept through the tunnel, igniting plastic-covered wiring, which in turn set
fire to
polyurethane foam that keeps the walls fry and solid. Within minutes the mine shaft filled
with
thick black smoke
containing toxic fumes
from the burning plastic. Choking miners
immediately fell and died of asphyxiation. When the initial several hours rescue operation
ended, 177 were dead, one was missing, and 235 were injured, making Kinross the worst
gold-mine disaster in South African history. All but five of the victims were black, and the
black-
dominated National Union of Mineworkers denounced the “unacc
eptably low safety
standards” in the mines. In fact, Kinross last year lost its top safety rating. But the mine’s
general
manager
said
the
plastics
that
burned
had
been
considered
safe.
A
government
investigation is now under way.
1. We know that the accident happened_____.
A. at night
B. in the daytime
C. at noon
D. in the afternoon
2. It was_____ that caused the fire.
