Read the following passage Extracted from Succeed in Cambridge CAE 10 Practice Tests and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the blanks. 
By the summer of 2007 England is set to be almost smoke-free, with a total ban on smoking in all public places- and that includes those designated smoking rooms in the office. Does this spell the end of smoking feuds in the workplace?
Eleven per cent of non- smoking adults are exposed to tobacco smoke at work. Approximately 700 people a year die from lung cancer or stroke because of passive smoking at work. Bar and pub workers account for a large proportion of these statistics, but this is a problem for office workers too. Smoking in the workplace has been a growing issue of contention for quite some time, becoming one of the most emotive and potentially damaging to office harmony and the biggest issue in the office rights' battle. And now that the non-smokers have won the battle with a total ban, what effect will this have in the office?
	Until the new law comes into being, employers can provide their workers with specifically designated smoking area within their office. But not all offices are so accommodating. For those who send their smoking employees outside, the source of friction- the fag break- remains, which can prove problematic for company productivity. In 1996, one study estimated that lost productivity due to smoking was costing employers in Scotland more than £1.2 million per day, or £292 million per annum.

	A. Bringing about the office harmony

	A. Bar and pub workers are exposed to tobacco smoke at work most
	B. Passive smoking can cause lung cancer or stroke
	C. Smoking in the workplace has brought about the office harmony 
	D. 11 percent of adults who don't smoke are exposed to tobacco smoke at work.
 Question 39. The word "those" in the third paragraph refers to __________.
	A. employees	B. offices	C. workers	D. employers
 Question 40. Approximately 700 people a year die from lung cancer or stroke ______________.
	A. even they don't like smoking	B. because they smoke at work
	C. even they don't smoke at work	D. because they go to bars or pubs often

	A. it can make the office rights' battle worse

	C. they do not have enough accommodation

 Question 43. What is the main topic of the reading passage?
	A. Smoke in the work place	B. Consequences of smoking	C. Passive smoking	D. How to punish the smokers at work
 Read the following passage extracted from Recycling Advanced English and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions. 
 Education was not formally integrated into European Union policy portfolio until the 1993 Maastricht Treaty, although the first Community legislation with an impact on the education sector was adopted as long as the 1960s. These early laws dealt with mutual recognition of qualifications. Achieving recognition by one member state of a qualification obtained in another was an important pre-condition for implementing the free movement of workers.
	Citizens of EU countries who are students now enjoy the same rights of access to higher education in all member states as they do in their home country, provided that they have the relevant qualifications for entry. Growing numbers of students exchange activities have been developed, of which the oldest and most famous is the 1987 Erasmus program. By recognized course credits, Erasmus allows university students to study for one year in a different member state. A separate program, Leonardo, gives young school leavers, students and graduates the chance to receive vocational training.
Few EU initiatives enjoy such wholehearted and widespread political support as these higher education programmes. The key issue for future initiatives is to build on this success without being over-ambitious. Unfortunately, these programmes are becoming very expensive, and this is now the primary focus of concern. 
 Question 44. What is the main idea of the reading passage?
	A. The 1993 Maastricht Treaty	B. The 1987 Erasmus program	
	C. The Leonardo program 	D. Education in European Union countries
 Question 45. The important point of the 1993 Maastricht Treaty is ______________.
	A. to provide qualifications to one member state	
	B. to join European Unity policy portfolio
	C. to make allowance for the worker's free movement
	D. to make qualification recognized
 Question 46. The word "widespread" is closest in meaning to ____________.
	A. all over the world	B. on the small scale	C. on a large scale 	D. everywhere
 Question 47. According to the passage, the oldest program for students in EU is __________.
	A. the first Community legislation	B. the 1987 Erasmus program
	C. the 1993 Maastricht Treaty	D. the Leonardo program
 Question 48. According to the passage, the following are true EXCEPT ___________.
	A. Leonardo provides students the chance to receive postgraduate training.
	B. European citizens who are students can access to higher education in all member states.
	C. Erasmus allows university students to study for one year in a different member state. 
	D. The 1987 Erasmus program is the program for students exchange activities. 
 Question 49. Education was formally integrated into European Union policy portfolio ________.
	A. before the 1960s	B. before the 1993 Maastricht Treaty
	C. in the 1993 Maastricht Treaty	D. in the 1960s

	A. rights	B. students	C. EU countries	D. member states
