READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT AND CHOOSE THE OPTION WHICH BEST COMPLETES EACH QUESTION ACCORDING TO IT:
Saving Energy 
Just a century ago, humans used very little energy because we had less of the things that consume it. There were no computers, phones, TV, cars, lights, washing machines and all that. After the industrial revolution, people started using a lot more manufactured items such as electronics, automobiles, and home appliances. These items use a lot of energy, but if we all cut its use by half, that would be huge savings, and make a great difference.
Saving energy can be achieved in different ways: 1. Energy conservation, 2. Energy Efficiency, and 3. Recycling. These first two are not the same, even though people often use them to mean the same thing.

1- Energy Conservation: This is the practice that results in less energy being used. For instance, turning the taps, computers, lights, and TV off when not in use. It also includes running in the park or outside instead of running on the treadmill in the gym. Energy conservation is great because we can all do this everywhere and anytime. It is a fundamental behavior we must acquire.

2- Energy Efficiency: This is the use of manufacturing techniques and technology _______ produce things that use less energy for the same result. For example, if a heater is designed to warm your home with less energy than regular heaters, that would be an energy efficient heater. If your washing machine uses less energy to do the same job as other washers, that is an energy efficient washer. An interesting fact is that homes built in the U.S. after 2000 are about 30% bigger, but they use less energy than older homes.
3- Recycling: This involves the use of waste or old materials to make new ones, like collecting all old newspapers from the town at the end of every day and turning the papers into fresh paper for printing again. We can collect all plastic bottles and send them to be used for new plastic bottles or used for children plastic toys. Recycling saves energy __________ less energy is used to recycle than to turn new raw materials into new products.
This means that to save energy, we should use all these great ways. If we all try to do this, together we can save some money and use less natural resources too.

The Operations Function


Although somewhat ‘invisible’ to the marketplace the operations function in a typical company accounts for well over half the employment and well over half the physical assets. That, in itself, makes the operations function important. In a company’s organization chart, operations often enjoys parity with the other major business functions: marketing, sales, product engineering, finance control (accounting), and human resources (personnel, labor relations). Sometimes, the operations function is organized as a single entity which stretches out across the entire company, but more often it is embedded in the district, typically product-defined divisions into which most major companies are organized.


In many service businesses, the operations function is typically more visible. Service businesses are often organized into many branches, often with geographic responsibilities – field offices, retail outlets. In such tiers of the organization, operations are paramount.


The operations function itself is, often divided 

.................two major groupings .................tasks:

line management and support services. Line management generally refers.................those managers directly concerned................the manufacture of the product or the delivery of the service. They are the ones who are typically close enough to the product or service that they can ‘touch’ it. Line management supervises the hourly, blue-collar workforce. In a manufacturing company, line management frequently extends to the stockroom (where material, parts, and semi-finished products – termed ‘work-in-process inventory – are stored), materials handling, the tool room, maintenance, the warehouse (where finished goods are stored), and distribution, as well as the so-called ‘factory floor’. In a service operation, what is considered line management can broaden considerably. Often, order-taking roles, in addition to orderfilling roles, are supervised by service line managers.


Support services for line management’s operations can be numerous. Within a manufacturing environment, support services carry titles such as quality control, production planning and scheduling, purchasing, inventory control, production control (which determines the status of jobs in the factory and what to do about jobs that may have fallen behind schedule), industrial engineering (which is work methods oriented), manufacturing engineering (which is hardware-oriented), on-going product engineering, and field service. In a service environment, some of the same roles are played but sometimes under vastly different names.


Thus, the managers for whom operational issues are central can hold a variety of titles. In manufacturing, the titles can range from vice-president – manufacturing, works manager, plant manager, and similar titles at the top of the hierarchy, through such titles as manufacturing or production manager, general superintendent, department manager, materials manager, director of quality control, and down to general foreman or foreman. Within service businesses, ‘operations manager’ is sometimes used but frequently the title is more general – business manager, branch manager, retail manager, and so on.

‘…line management frequently extends to the stockroom…’ and ‘…management can broaden considerably.’

         Drinking coffee could help you live longer Coffee not only helps you feel full of beans, it might add years to your life as well, two major studies have shown. Scientists in Europe and the US have uncovered the clearest evidence yet that drinking coffee reduces the risk of death.

         One study of more than half a million people from 10 European countries found that men who downed at least three cups of coffee a day were 18% less likely to die from any cause than non-coffee drinkers. Women drinking the same amount benefited less, but still experienced an 8% reduction in mortality over the period measured.

        Similar results were reported by American scientists who conducted a separate investigation, recruiting 185855 participants from different ethnic backgrounds. Irrespective of ethnicity, people who drank two to three cups of coffee daily had an 18% reduced risk of death.

        Each of the studies, both published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, showed no advantage from drinking either caffeinated or decaffeinated coffee. Experts believe the antioxidant plant compounds in coffee rather than caffeine are responsible for the life-extending effect. Previous research has suggested that drinking coffee can reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, liver disease, and some cancers.

         Dr Marc Gunter, from the International Agency for Research on Cancer, who led the European study with colleagues from Imperial College London, said: “We found that higher coffee consumption was associated with a lower risk of death from any cause and specifically for circulatory diseases and digestive diseases. Importantly, these results were similar across all of the 10 European countries, with variable coffee drinking habits and customs. Our study also offers important insights into the possible mechanisms for the beneficial health effects of coffee.”

We were on a flight to Tokyo, and we’d been flying for about five hours. I was reading a book, and my wife was watching a film when suddenly we heard a very loud noise. It sounded as if an engine had exploded. The pilot didn’t tell us what had happened until half an hour later.

Netherlands: Phone ban announced to stop school disruptions


(1º§) Devices including mobile phones are set to be banned from classrooms to stop them from disrupting learning, the Dutch government has announced. The initiative is being introduced in collaboration with schools and is to take effect at the start of next year.


(2º§) There will be some exceptions, including for students with medical needs or a disability, and for classes focused on digital skills. The ban is not legally enforceable but may become so in the future. "Even though mobile phones are almost intertwined with our lives, they do not belong in the classroom," said Education Minister Robbert Dijkgraaf. "Students must be able to concentrate there and be given every opportunity to learn well. We know from scientific research that mobile phones disrupt this."


(3º§) Various studies have found limiting children's screen time is linked to improved cognition and concentration. Other tech including tablets and smartwatches are also included in the Dutch ban. The government said it would be up to individual schools to agree the exact rules with teachers, parents and pupils - including whether they wanted to completely ban devices __ schools.


(4º§) The scheme is the result of an agreement between the ministry, schools and related organisations. It will be reviewed at the end of the 2024/2025 school year to see how well it had worked and whether a legal ban is needed. The announcement follows a similar decision by Finland last week.


(5º§) Its government announced it would change the law to make it easier __ restrict the use of phones in schools. Other countries, including England and France, have also proposed banning mobile phones to improve learning.

In the text, which conjunction is used to introduce a contrast between the idea of mobile phones being intertwined with our lives and the belief that they do not belong in the classroom?

    In a nutshell, police officers maintain law and order, protect the general public, investigate crimes and prevent criminal activity from happening.
    If you become a police officer, your career will be all about crime prevention, prosecution and punishment. Policing is such a varied career path that you could find yourself doing all kinds of activities.
    You might be responsible for preventing heinous crimes and stopping dangerous criminal groups, such as organised crime syndicates. Alternatively, you might be working to diminish anti-social behaviour, or you might be taking part in counter-terrorism activities.
    Moreover, you might be responsible for investigating crimes against people and their property, or maintaining public peace and order at large events, public gatherings and protests.
     At all times, police officers must make sure their actions comply with current legislation. Consequently, police officers must keep up to date with the latest developments in crime detection and prevention.

A recent study, performed with children aged 2 months to 10 years, produced clinicai evidence delineating the stages a child goes through in developing a self-image. It involved exposing the child to his reflection in both a true mirror and then one that was convexly distorted. Children from 9 to 10 months old were highly responsive to both the true and the distorted mirror images. Their excitement, attention, and activity seemed to be unaffected by the distortion, indicating they had no self-image. Slightly older children, aged 10 to 11 months, made rhythmic circular movements when exposed to their distorted image as though attempting to correct the distortion. This change in response indicates the child may have some idea of his image and perhaps recognizes the distorted image is wrong. Amarked change in response changes when a child reaches 18 to 22 months of age. The child avoids both images, having begun to develop a self-image which does not match the mirror image. From 2 to 5 years, the child has developed a definite self-image which is recognizable in the mirror, since the child literally flees the distorted image. Children ages 7 to 10 had reached a levei of cognitive development which allowed them to laugh at the distorted images, play with the mirror and observe the changes they could effect.

Read the text below and answer questions 35 to 40


  1. A new study from archaeologists at University of Sydney and Simon
  2. Fraser University in Vancouver, has provided important new evidence
  3. to answer the question "Who exactly were the Anglo‐Saxons?" New
  4. findings based on studying skeletal remains clearly indicate the Anglo‐
  5. Saxons were a melting pot of people from both migrant and local
  6. cultural groups and not one homogenous group from Western Europe.
  7. Professor Keith Dobney said the team’s results indicate that "the
  8. Anglo‐Saxon kingdoms of early Medieval Britain were strikingly similar
  9. to contemporary Britain ‐‐ full of people of different ancestries sharing
  10. a common language and culture." The collaborative study looked at the
  11. three‐dimensional shape of the base of the skull. "Baased on this, we
  12. collected 3D data from suitably dated skeletal collections from Britain
  13. and Denmark, and then analysed the data to estimate the ancestry of
  14. the Anglo‐Saxon individuals in the sample."
  15. The researchers found that between two‐thirds and three‐quarters of
  16. early Anglo‐Saxon individuals were of continental European ancestry,
  17. while between a quarter and one‐third were of local ancestry. When
  18. they looked at skeletons dated to the Middle Anglo‐Saxon period
  19. (several hundred years after the original migrants arrived), they found
  20. that 50 to 70 percent of the individuals were of local ancestry, while
  21. 30 to 50 percent were of continental European ancestry, which
  22. probably indicates a change in the rate of migration and/or local
  23. adoption of culture over time. "These findings tell us that being Anglo‐
  24. Saxon was more likely a matter of language and culture, not genetics."
  25. Although Anglo‐Saxon origins can clearly be traced to a migration of
  26. Germanic‐speaking people from mainland Europe between the 5th
  27. and 7th centuries AD, the number of individuals who settled in Britain
  28. is still contested, as is the nature of their relationship with the pre-
  29. existing inhabitants of the British Isles, who were Romano‐Celts.
  30. The ongoing and unresolved argument is whether hordes of European
  31. invaders largely replaced the existing Romano‐British inhabitants, or
  32. did smaller numbers of migrants settle and interact with the locals,
  33. who then rapidly adopted the new language and culture of the Anglo‐
  34. Saxons? "The reason for the ongoing confusion is the apparent
  35. contradiction between early historical texts (written sometime after
  36. the events that imply that the newcomers were both numerous and
  37. replaced the Romano‐British population) and some recent
  38. biomolecular markers directly recovered from Anglo‐Saxon skeletons
  39. that appears to suggest numbers of immigrants were few," said
  40. Professor Dobney. "Our new data sits at the interface of this debate
  41. and implies that early Anglo‐Saxon society was a mix of both
  42. newcomers and immigrants and, instead of wholesale population
  43. replacement, a process of acculturation resulted in Anglo‐Saxon
  44. language and culture being adopted wholesale by the local
  45. population." "It could be this new cultural package was attractive,
  46. filling a vacuum left at the end of the Roman occupation of Britain.
  47. Whatever the reason, it lit the fuse for the English nation we have today
  48. ‐‐ still comprised of people of different origins who share the same
  49. language," Professor Dobney said.
