Over time, different cultures have developed their own gift giving customs and traditions. In France, the gift of wine for the hostess of a dinner party is not an appropriate gift as the hostess would prefer to choose the vintage for the night.

And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop. Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating effects. No moist- skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the word. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees. Question 30. The author mentions all the following as examples of the behavior of desert animals EXCEPT . A. they are watchful and quiet. B. they sleep during the day. C. they dig home underground. D. they are noisy and aggressive. Question 31. The word “them” means . A. animals B. minutes C. people D. water Question 32. According to the passage, creatures in the desert . A. are smaller and fleeter than forest animals. B. are more active during the day than those in the tangled forest. C. live in an accommodating environment. D. are not as healthy as those anywhere else in the world. Question 33. The word “emaciated” in the passage mostly means . A. wild B. unmanageable C. cunning D. unhealthy Question 34. The title for this passage could be . A. “Man’s Life in a Desert Environment” B. “Desert Plants”
4. C. “Animal Life in a Desert Environment” D. “Life Underground” Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42. In American, although most men still do less housework than their wives , that gap has been halved since the 1960s. Today, 41 per cent of couples say they share childcare equally, compared with 25 percent in 1985. Mẹn’s greater involvement at home is good for their relationships with their spouses, and also good for their children. Hands-on fathers make better parents than men who let their wives do all the nurturing and childcare. They raise sons who are more expressive and daughters who are more likely to do well in school – especially in math and Science. In 1900, life expectancy in the United States was 47 years, and only four per cent of the population was 65 or older. Today, life expectancy is 76 years, and by 2025, it is estimated about 20 per cent of the us, population will be 65 or older. For the first time, a generation of adults must pay for the needs of both their parents and their children. Most Americans are responding with remarkable grace. One in four households gives the equivalent of a full day a week or more in unpaid care to an aging relative, and more than half say they expect to do so in the next 10 years. Older people are less likely to be impoverished or incapacitated by illness than in the past, and have more opportunity to develop a relationship with their grandchildren. Even some of the choices that worry people the most are turning out to be manageable. Divorce rates are likely to remain high, and in many cases marital breakdown causes serious problems for both adults and kids. Yet when parents minimize conflict, family bonds can be maintained. And many families are doing this. More non-custodial parents are staying in touch With their children. Child- support receipts are rising. A lower proportion of children from divorced families are exhibitive problems than in earlier decades. And stepfamilies are learning to maximize children’s access to supportive adults rather than cutting them off from one side of the family. (Source: Adapted from U.S. Society and Values) Question 35.
