Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the

Have you ever felt a sudden feeling of joy because you heard a favorite song playing? Then you
know that music can have a strong effect on your emotions. Try to take advantage of this power of
music. It can help get you out of a bad mood or stay in a good mood, says Alicia Ann Clair, professor
of music therapy at the University of Kansas. Music can also help you relax and feel rejuvenated.
To cheer up or boost your energy, listen to Latin music or anything with a strong beat, lots of
percussion, and a fast tempo. When you want to relax after a busy day, music with string instruments
and woodwinds, less percussion, and a slower tempo can calm you.
Listen to calming music before you start any stressful activities, advises Dr. Clair. “Once you’re in
a good state of mind, it’s easier to maintain it.” You can lower stress at work with music, too, by
playing relaxing tunes. But only play them when you really need them. You can change your mood by
switching from one kind of music to another. For example, first play some nice gentle ballads, and
then listen to something more energetic. When you want to calm down after a busy week at work, just
do the opposite.
(Adapted from Strategic Reading by Richards and Eckstut-Didier)

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 36 to 42.
The world's population reached five billion on the day I was born. That was in Indonesia back in
1987, and my parents were amazed that there were so many people on the planet. However, since then
the population has continued to increase.
The growth of our human population is extraordinary. For more than two million years, humans
lived with no permanent home, finding plants to eat and hunting animals for meat. Then, just 10,000
years ago, we invented agriculture. At that time, there were only about five million humans, but this
figure quickly doubled. The population reached a billion in 1805, and since then it has multiplied
seven times.
The human population has never been bigger, but in some ways the planet seems to be getting
smaller. In the past, travellers from Europe to Indonesia spent months at sea. Now you just have to sit
on a plane for a few hours. When you arrived in another country a hundred years ago, you saw
unfamiliar styles of clothing and architecture and discovered a completely different culture. In many
places today, clothing and new buildings are very similar, and people enjoy the same sports, music,
films and TV shows. We also buy the same products from huge, global companies. In our different
continents, we are starting to live the same lives. Even the languages that we use are becoming more
global. There are around seven thousand languages in use today, but the number is decreasing fast.
The same thing is happening around the world. Experts think that the number of different
languages will halve to just 3,500 by the end of this century. Where will it stop? Will there be a time in
the future when Earth's billions all speak just one language, and there are no cultural differences to
divide us? Perhaps the planet would be more peaceful if this happened, but I must admit that the idea is
quite depressing. I prefer to think that, as our population grows, we can celebrate not the similarity but
the fascinating diversity of the human race.
(Adapted from Insight by Roberts and Sayer)
