Under the heading “survival”, (32)_______, students can learn car mainternance, first aid and cooking.

To a greater or lesser extent, good schools have always tried to (35)__________these skills.

 Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions
Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop.
Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not aliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating effects. No moistskinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated.
Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the word. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

A. “Man’s Life in a Desert Environment”	B. “Life Underground”

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions 
THE BODY CLOCK
Why is it that flying to New York from London will leave you feeling less tired than flying to London from New York? The answer may be a clear case of biology not being able to keep up with technology.
Deep inside the brain there is a “clock” that governs every aspect of the body’s functioning: sleep and wake cycles, levels of alertness, performance, mood, hormone levels, digestion, body temperature and so on. It regulates all of these functions on a 24-hour basis and is called the circadian clock (from the Latin, circa “about” + dies “day”).
This body clock programmes us to be sleepy twice a day, between 3-5 a.m and again between 3-5 p.m. Afternoon tea and siesta times are all cultural responses to our natural biological sleepiness in the afternoon.
One of the major causes of the travelers’ malady known as jet lag is the non-alignment of a person’s internal body clock with clocks in the external world.
Crossing different time zones confuses the circadian clock, which then has to adjust to the new time and patterns of light and activity. To make matters more complex, not all internal body functions adjust at the same rate. So your sleep/wake may adjust to a new time zone at one rate, while your temperature adjusts at a different pace. Your digestion may be on a different schedule altogether.
Though we live in a 24-hour day, the natural tendency of the body clock is to extend our day beyond 24 hours. It is contrary to our biological programming to shrink our day.
That is why travelling in a westward direction is more body-clock friendly than flying east. NASA studies of long haul pilots showed that westward travel was associated with significantly better sleep quantity and quality than eastward flights.
When flying west, you are “extending” your day, thus travelling in the natural direction of your internal clock. Flying eastward will involve “shrinking” or reducing your day and is in direct opposition to your internal clock’s natural tendency.
One of the more common complaints of travelers is that their sleep becomes disrupted. There are many reasons for this: Changing time zones and schedules, changing light and activity levels, trying to sleep when your body clock is programmed to be awake, disruption of the internal circadian clock and working longer hours
Sleep loss, jet lag and fatigue can seriously affect our ability to function well. Judgment and decision-making can be reduced by 50%, attention by 75 percent, memory by 20 percent and communication by 30 percent.
It is often suggested that you adjust your watch as soon as you board a plane, supposedly to try to help you adjust to your destination’s schedule as soon as you arrive. But it can take the body clock several days to several weeks to fully adjust to a new time zone.
44. The main function of the body clock is to________
A. help us sleep.	B. help us adapt to a 24-hour cycle.
C. regulate the body’s functions.	D. govern all the body’s responses.
45. The word “It” refers to________
A. the programme	B. the body clock	C. the function	D. the brain
46. The direction you fly in________
A. extends or shrinks your body clock	B. alters your body’s natural rhythms
C. helps you sleep better	D. affects the degree of jet lag
47. On the subject of avoiding jet lag the article________
A. suggests changing the time on your watch. B. proposes gradually adjusting your body clock.
C. says there is nothing you can do. D. makes no suggestions.
48. According to the author, which of the following reasons disrupt travelers’ sleep?
A. Travelers try to sleep between 3-5 p.m. 
B. Travelers’ attention is reduced by 75 percent.
C. Travelers fly in the natural direction of their internal clock.
D. The traveler’s internal circadian clock has to adjust to patterns of light and activity.
49. It can be inferred from the passage that________
A. there are more travelers in westward flights than in eastward ones.
B. westward travelers become friendlier than eastward ones.
C. travelers have to spend more money flying westward than eastward.
D. travelers do not sleep as well in eastward flights as in westward ones.
50. The word “fatigue” is closest in meaning to________
A. exhaustion B. obsession C. frustration D. sleeplessness
