Their trajectory took them around the Earth and toward the moon when a third-stage rocket fired. Two modules-the Eagle, for landing, and the Columbia, a command and service center- entered the moon’s orbit on July 19. Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, piloting the Eagle landing module, stepped down on the moon on July 20,1969. The third US astronaut ,Michael Collins ,was in the orbiting command module overhead. “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind”, said Armstrong.

Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer: Sometimes forest fires have caused serious damage to both private and public property. They destroy many houses and cause deaths, particularly when they have reached villages which are close to the forests.

This can result in property damage in the immediate fire area, and can affect the water quality of streams, rivers and lakes. Wind sometimes makes contributions to forest fires.

Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer: Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship. Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboo in a particular culture. In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics. In Japan, China, and Korea, however, people are much more private. They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious business relationship they're trying to build. Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters. It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children. As a general rule, it's best not to talk about politics or religion with your business friends. This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views. In addition, discussing one's salary is usually considered unsuitable. Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport. Instead, be friendly and praise your host's team. 26.

Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer: The loss of the jobs and persistent unemployment in the industrial countries is due mainly to changes in technology. It is thought to be misleading to blame job losses on the shift of corporations from the industrial countries to the Third World. The present technological developments have been compared to a Third Industrial Revolution. The first coming in the 19th century, was characterized by the steam engine and the use of coal. In the 1920s the second emerged with the use of oil and the electrodynamo. The third, the present one, is driven by computers, biotechnology and information technology. However, there can be seen weaknesses in the newest of industrial revolutions. The technology is advancing so fast and productivity is rising so fast that we are left with a big problem. Because of the loss in jobs, caused largely by this new technology, there will not be enough people with money to buy all these products. Technology as definitely enhanced our standard of living, even our quality of life. But as the capacity to produce expands and the lack of purchasing power and consequent demand diminish, there can be overproduction and recession, and what happens to our standard of living? 26. What is the main point the author is making? a. That the industrial countries have more unemployment than the Third World. b. That technology is the main cause of unemployment. c. That corporations have shifted to the Third World. d. That the present situation is like in the Industrial Revolution. 27. Which of the following is not a characteristic of one of the industrial revolutions? a. The use of oil b. The use of computer c. The use of electricity d. The use of coal 28. What is stated as being the main weakness of the Third Industrial Revolution? a. There will be too few people who can afford to buy things. b. There won't be enough products for everyone to buy. c. There will not be enough money around. d. There will be too many machines in the factories. 29. Why does the author think that there won't be enough people to buy the products? a. People will not be able to keep up with technology. b. Productivity will not be high enough. c. There will be too many products. d. Many people will be unemployed. 30. What do we infer is the author's attitude to the technology? a. It has improved our purchasing power. b. It has improved our quality of life. c. It has created more jobs. d. It is not responsible for the recession. V. Choose the answer - a, b, c or d - that is nearest in meaning to the printed before it: 31. The company turned down Bob’s offer. a.
