Text 4 The MV Akademik Shokalsky, a “highly ice - strengthened” Russian tour ship built in Finland in 1984 “for polar and oceanagraphic research.” is stranded in Antarctica’s summer ice with 74 passengers and crew members aboard, The group, which includes two Guardian journalists, is retracing the harrowing 1911 Antarctic expedition led by sir Douglas Mawson, who Iost many of his team members and nearly died himself on the frigid continent a century a ago. The ship's passengers include an Australian research team led by University of New South Wales Professor Chris Turney, who said in November that the voluminous data collected by Mawson 100 years ago is critical to understanding global warming. But Turney reported that blizzard-like conditions and thick ocean ice are preventing the latest expedition from leaving. "Unfortunately proceeding north we found our path blocked by ice 10 pushed in by an increasingly strong southeasterly wind, On Christmas Eve we realized we could not get through, in spite of being just 2 nautical miles from open water, Turney reported in his blog. "According to reports nobody is in present danger and three nearby icebreakers are being sent to assist", said Expeditionsonline.com, which books polar expeditions. The ship is "stuck part-way through her Australasian Antarctic Expedition towards Mawson's Hut at Cape Denison," located about 100 nautical miles east of Dumont 15 D'Urville, a French base on Antarctica, and 1,500 nautical miles south of Hobart in Tasmania. Three icebreakers-China's Xue Long, Australia's Aurora Australis, and France's L'Astrolabe-have been dispatched to the scene, according to the Australian Maritime' Safety Authority (AMSA), which is coordinating the international rescue after the Falmouth Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre in the United Kingdom received a satellite distress call Christmas morning. However, it will take the icebreakers at least two days to get to the 20 stranded ship, which "is experiencing very strong winds and limited Visibility." The closest rescue ship is not expected to get to the scene until sometime Friday night "While it is early winter in the Arctic, it is early summer in the Antarctic. Continuing patterns seen in recent years, Antarctic sea ice extent remains unusually high, near or above previous daily maximum values," according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC). Which of the followning statement is NOT stated in the text? A. The MC Akademic Shokalkiy is a rusian tour ship which is intanded for polar and oceanographic research. B. Three icebreakers - Xue Long, Aurora Australis and L'Astrolabe - were experiencing very strong winds and limited visibility for two days in the sea. C. Professor cina turney is an Australian research team leader, who reported that Mawson had collected lots of detailed data related to global warming D. Sir Douglas Mawson, who led an Antarctic expedition in 1911, lost many of his team members and nearly died himself on the Antarctic. E. It was the National Snow and Ice Data Center which reported that the Antactic see ice remained unusually high

Text 3 Parents send their children to school with the best of intentions, believing that formal educationis what kids need to become productive, happy adults. Many parents do have qualms about how well schools are performing, But the conventional wisdom is that the issues can be resolved with more money, better teachers, more challenging curricula, or more rigorous tests. But what if the real problem is school itself? The unfortunate fact is that one our most cherished institutions is, by its very nature, failing our children and our society. Children are required to be in school, where their freedoms is greatly restricted. Far more than most adults would tolerate in their workspaces. In recent decades, we have been compelling them to spend ever more time in this kind of setting, and there is strong evidence that this is causing psychogical damage to many of them. And as scientists have investigated how children naturally learn, they have realized that kids do so most deeply and fully, and with greatest enthusiasm, in condihons that are almost opposite to those of school. Compulsory education has been a fixture of culture now far several generations. President Obama and secretary of Education Arne Duncan are so enamored of it that they want even longer school days and years. Most people assume that the basic design of today’s schools emerged from scientific evidence about how children learn. But nothing could be further from the truth. Schools as we know them today are a product of history, not of research. The blueprint for them was developed during the protestant reformation, when schools were created to teach children to read the bible, to believe scripture without questioning it, and to obey authority figures without questioning them. When schools were taken over by the state; made compulsory, and directed toward secular ends, the basic structure and methods of teaching remained enchanged. Subsequent attempts at reform have failed because they have not altered basic blueprint. The top down, teach - and - test method in which learning is motivated by a system of rewards and punishments rather than by curiosity or by any real desire to know, is well designed for indoctrination and obedience training but not much else, it is no wonder that many of the world’s greatest entrepreneurs and innovators either left school early (like Thomas Edison ) or said they hated school and learned despite it, not because of it (like Albert Einstein ). 11. What is the purpose of the text? (A) To remind American parents that the formal school is basically a product of-culture (B) To discuss if the American school system is truly effective to educate children (C) To tell the readers that formal schools in the USA have been constantly developed for a long time (D) To review how compulsory education in the USA has met parents expectation (E) To describe how American children learn at school and in real - life settings.

TEXT 2 Passage A The first of material ever taken from the inside of a rock on another planet has been obtained by NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity. NASA just released new images showing the drilled material. The sample material will give researchers a look into what mars was like during the rock material’s formation. Curiosity’s drill, located on one of its many robotic arms, obtained the sample powder as it made a 2.5 - inch hole in the flat Martian bedrock on February 8th. the sample will now be analyzed by the scientific instruments inside of the rover. The area where the sample was obtained is a “fine-grained”, veiny sedimentary rockcalled ‘john klein,’ named in memory of a mars science labolatory deputy project manager who died in 2011. The rock was selected for the first sample drilling because it may hold evidence of wet eviromental conditions log ago. The rover's laboratory analysis of the powder may provide information about those conditions. Passage B A possible alien planet discovered by NASA‘s kepler space telescope is the most Earth-like world yel detected beyond our solar system, scientist say. With a radius that is just 1.5 times that of earth, the potential planet is a so - called “super-Earth,” meaning it is just slightly larger than the Earth, The candidate planet orbits a star similar to the sun at a distance that falls within the “habitable zone” - the region where liquid water could exist on the planet's surface. Scientists say the planet, if confirmed, could be a prime candidate to host alien life. The object takes 242 days to orbit its star (compared to Earth's 365 days) and is about three quarters of the Earth-sun distance from its parent. The Earth orbits 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from the sun on average, distance known as one astronomical unit. 8. Based on both passages, it can be hypothesized that ... (A) Human will travel around the universe soon (B) Human needs spacecraft reaching the speed of light (C) The closer planet to the sun, the higher chance to live on (D) The more water exists in a planet, the higher possibility of life is (E) Humans will create advanced technology to survive on other planets

TEXT 1 Every January, many people start working out, hoping to lose weight: but as studies attest, exercise often produces little or no weight loss - and even weight gain - and resolutions are soon abandoned. But new science suggests that if you stick with the right kind of exercise, you may change how your body interacts with food. It is more than a matter of burning calories; exercise also affects hormones. A study in 2012 from the University of Wyoming looked at a group of women who either ran or walked and, on alternate days, sat quietly for an hour. After the running walking or sitting, researchers drew blood to test for the levels of certain hormones and then directed the women to a room with a buffet. Human appetite is complicated, driven by signals from the brain, g u t fat cells, glands, genes and psyche. But certain appetite related hormones, in particular ghrelin, which stimulates hunger, are known to be instrumental in determining how much we consume. The study has shown that exercise typically increases the production of phretin. Workouts make you hungry. In the Wyoming study, when the women ran, their ghrelin levels spiked, which should have meant they would attack the buffet with gusto. But they did not. In fact after running, these women consumed several hundred fewer calories than the burned. 4. The author presents an effect of having specific exercise followed by ... (A) Explaining why ghrelin increase does not affect appetite (B) Arguing for importance of having sufficient exercise (C) Discussing the relation between appetite and exercise (D) Exemplifying reasons tor the increase of ghrelin (E) Demonstrating why hunger comes after exercise
