THE SNOWY SLOPES OF DUBAI People who enjoy skiing dream of skiing in exotic places. These days they don’t have to limit themselves to just the Rocky Mountains or the Swiss Alps. Now they can ski in Dubai as well! That’s right. Dubai, the most populated city in the United Arab Emirates, has a ski resort. Ski Dubai opened for business in 2005. Other than being the world’s third largest indoor ski facility, Ski Dubai has a number of things to amaze visitors. First and foremost, this ski facility was built in a place where there are no natural hills and it never snows. While the desert outdoors can reach 45° C in the summer, the slopes of Ski Dubai are kept at a cool -2° C all year round. Like any other ski resort, Ski Dubai has a chairlift and ski instructors. It also boasts a Swiss style café on the slopes where skiers can rest and warm up. However, that’s not all. Along with being able to enjoy the five indoor slopes, including a black diamond slope, visitors are welcome to build snowmen in a designated area. Children can also enjoy snowball fights in the snowball throwing gallery, or they can explore a snow cavern filled with amazing things for kids to see and do. As if all of that were not enough, it is also possible for guests to experience falling snow from time to time. When it is time to make new snow inside the facility, the temperature drops to -8° C. Then snow guns shoot out chilled water to make a cloud near the ceiling. Tiny particles of ice are shot into the cloud to form snow crystals. This manmade snow falls from the ceiling on excited guests below. When Raed Al Yousofi, a guest at Ski Dubai, experienced his first snowfall, he said, “It’s very strange but wonderful.” That is certainly an apt description of Ski Dubai as well. Question 36: What is the main idea of this reading? A. What Ski Dubai has B. Where the idea of Ski Dubai came from C. Who made Ski Dubai possible D. Why Ski Dubai needed to be built Question 37: Where was Ski Dubai built? A. In a city B. In a place with hills C. In a resort with a large hotel D.

All the guests are asked to exit. C. Chilled water is put on the slopes. D. Particles of ice are mixed with real snow.

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 following questions. During the nineteenth century, women in the United States organized and participated in a large number of reform movements, including movements to reorganize the prison system, improve education, ban the sale of alcohol, grant rights to people who were denied them, and, most importantly, free slaves. Some women saw similarities in the social status of women and slaves. Woman like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucy Stone were feminists and abolitionists who supported the rights of both women and blacks. A number of male abolitionists, including William Lloyd Garrison and Wendell Phillips, also supported the rights of women to speak and to participate equally with men in antislavery activities. Probably more than any other movement, abolitionism offered women a previously denied entry into politics. They became involved primarily in order to better their living conditions and improve the conditions of others. When the civil war ended in 1865, the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution adopted in 1868 and 1870 granted citizenship and suffrage (= vote) to blacks but not to women. Discouraged but resolved, feminists worked tirelessly to influence more and more women to demand the right to vote. In 1869, the Wyoming Territory had yielded to demands by feminists, but the states on the East Coast resisted more stubbornly than before. A women’s suffrage bill had been presented to every Congress since 1878, but it continually failed to pass until 1920, when the Nineteenth Amendment granted women the right to vote.
