Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 34.
It's often said that we learn things at the wrong time. University students frequently do the
minimum of work because they're crazy about a good social life instead. Children often scream before
their piano practice because it's so boring. They have to be given gold stars and medals to be persuaded to
swim, or have to be bribed to take exams. But the story is different when you're older.
Over the years, I've done my share of adult learning. At 30, I went to a college and did courses in
History and English. It was an amazing experience. For starters, I was paying, so there was no reason to
be late — I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor was late, not the other way round.
Indeed, if I could persuade him to linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus, not a nuisance. I wasn't
frightened to ask questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I passed an exam, I had
passed it for me and me alone, not for my parents or my teachers. The satisfaction I got was entirely personal.
Some people fear going back to school because they worry that their brains have got rusty. But the
joy is that, although some parts have rusted up, your brain has learnt all kinds of other things since you
were young. It has learnt to think independently and flexibly and is much better at relating one thing to
another. What you lose in the rust department, you gain in the maturity department.
In some ways, age is a positive plus. For instance, when you're older, you get less frustrated.
Experience has told you that, if you're calm and simply do something carefully again and again,
eventually you'll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas — from being able to drive a
car, perhaps — means that if you can't, say, build a chair instantly, you don't, like a child, want to destroy
your first pathetic attempts. Maturity tells you that you will, with application, eventually get there.
I hated piano lessons at school, but I was good at music. And coming back to it, with a teacher who
could explain why certain exercises were useful and with musical concepts that, at the age of ten, I could
never grasp, was magical. Initially, I did feel a bit strange, thumping out a piece that I'd played for my
school exams, with just as little comprehension of what the composer intended as I'd had all those years
before. But soon, complex emotions that I never knew poured out from my fingers, and suddenly I could
understand why practice makes perfect.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.
Humans have struggled against weeds since the beginnings of agriculture. Marring our gardens is
one of the milder effects of weeds - any plants that thrive where they are unwanted. They clog waterways,
destroy wildlife habitats, and impede farming. Their spread eliminates grazing areas and accounts for
one-third of all crop loss. They compete for sunlight, nutrients, and water with useful plants.
The global need for weed control had been answered mainly by the chemical industry. Its herbicides
are effective and sometimes necessary, but some pose serious problems, particularly if misused. Toxic
compounds threaten animal and public health when they accumulate in food plants, groundwater, and
drinking water. They also harm workers who apply them.
In recent years, the chemical industry has introduced several herbicides that are more ecologically
sound. Yet new chemicals alone cannot solve the world's weed problems. Hence, scientists are exploring
the innate weed-killing powers of living organisms, primarily insects and microorganisms.
The biological agents now in use are environmentally benign and are harmless to humans. They can
be chosen for their ability to attack selected targets and leave crops and other plants untouched. In
contrast, some of the most effective chemicals kill virtually all the plants they come in contact with,
sparing only those that are naturally resistant or have been genetically modified for resistance.
Furthermore, a number of biological agents can be administered only once, after which no added
applications are needed. Chemicals typically must be used several times per growing season.
Question 35: With what topic does this passage primarily deal?
A. The importance of the chemical industry.
B. The dangers of toxic chemicals..
C. A proposal to ban the use of all herbicides

B. It is occasionally required.
C. It should be increased.
D. It has become more dangerous recently.
Question 39: Which of the following is NOT given as an advantage of using biological agents over chemical herbicides?
A. They are safer for workers.
B. They are less likely to destroy desirable plants.
C. They are more easily available.
D. They do not have to be used as often.
