These meanings of health have also changed over time. This change is no more evident than in Western society today, when notions of health and health promotion are being challenged and expanded in new ways.BFor much of recent Western history, health has been viewed in the physical sense only. That is, good health has been connected to the smooth mechanical operation of the body, while ill health has been attributed to a breakdown in this machine. Health in this sense has been defined as the absence of disease or illness and is seen in medical terms. According to this view, creating health for people means providing medical care to treat or prevent disease and illness. During this period, there was an emphasis on providing clean water, improved sanitation and housing.CIn the late 1940s the World Health Organisation challenged this physically and medically oriented view of health. They stated that "health is a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being and is not merely the absence of disease" (WHO, 1946). Health and the person were seen more holistically (mind/body/spirit) and not just in physical terms.DThe 1970s was a time of focusing on the prevention of disease and illness by emphasising the importance of the lifestyle and behaviour of the individual. Specific behaviours which were seen to increase risk of disease, such as smoking, lack of fitness and unhealthy eating habits, were targeted. Creating health meant providing not only medical health care, but health promotion programs and policies which would help people maintain healthy behaviours and lifestyles. While this individualistic healthy lifestyles approach to health worked for some (the wealthy members of society), people experiencing poverty, unemployment, underemployment or little control over the conditions of their daily lives benefited little from this approach. This was largely because both the healthy lifestyles approach and the medical approach to health largely ignored the social and environmental conditions affecting the health of people.EDuring the 1980s and 1990s there has been a growing swing away from seeing lifestyle risks as the root cause of poor health. While lifestyle factors still remain important, health is being viewed also in terms of the social, economic and environmental contexts in which people live. This broad approach to health is called the socio-ecological view of health. The broad socio-ecological view of health was endorsed at the first International Conference of Health Promotion held in 1986, Ottawa, Canada, where people from 38 countries agreed and declared that:"The fundamental conditions and resources for health are peace, shelter, education, food, a viable income,a stable eco-system, sustainable resources, social justice and equity. Improvement in health requires asecure foundation in these basic requirements."(WHO, 1986)It is clear from this statement that the creation of health is about much more than encouraging healthy individual behaviours and lifestyles and providing appropriate medical care. Therefore, the creation of health must include addressing issues such as poverty, pollution, urbanisation, natural resource depletion, social alienation and poor working conditions. The social, economic and environmental contexts which contribute to the creation of heath do not operate separately or independently of each other. Rather, they are interacting and interdependent, and it is the complex interrelationships between them which determine the conditions that promote health. A broad socio-ecological view of health suggests that the promotion of health must include a strong social, economic and environmental focus.FAt the Ottawa Conference in 1986, a charter was developed which outlined new directions for health promotion based on the socio-ecological view of health. This charter, known as the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, remains as the backbone of health action today. In exploring the scope of health promotion it states that:Good health is a major resource for social, economic and personal development and an important dimension of quality of life. Political, economic, social, cultural, environmental, behavioural and biological factors can all favour health or be harmful to it. (WHO, 1986)The Ottawa Charter brings practical meaning and action to this broad notion of health promotion. It presents fundamental strategies and approaches in achieving health for all. The overall philosophy of health promotion which guides these fundamental strategies and approaches is one of "enabling people to increase control over and to improve their health" (WHO, 1986).Answer the questions below using NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS from the passage for each answer.Write your answers in boxes 1-3 on your answer sheet.1.In which year did the World Health Organisation define health in terms of mental, physical and socialwell-being?______________________________________________________________________________________2.During which decade were lifestyle risks seen as the major contributors to poor health?______________________________________________________________________________________ the three broad areas which relate to people's health, according to the socio-ecological view of health.______________________________________________________________________________________Reading Passage 2Questions 4– 8Reading Passage 2 has six sections, A-F.Choose the correct heading for sections A-D and F from the list of headings below.Write the correct number i-ix in boxes 4-8.4.Section A ______5.Section B ______6.Section C ______7.Section D ______ExampleSection EVi 8.Section F ______Section AThe role of governments in environmental management is difficult but inescapable. Sometimes, the state tries to manage the resources it owns, and does so badly. Often, however, governments act in an even more harmful way. They actually subsidise the exploitation and consumption of natural resources. A whole range of policies, from farm-price support to protection for coal-mining, do environmental damage and (often) make no economic sense. Scrapping them offers a two-fold bonus: a cleanerenvironment and a more efficient economy. Growth and environmentalism can actually go hand in hand, if politicians have the courage to confront the vested interest that subsidies create.Section BNo activity affects more of the earth's surface than farming. It shapes a third of the planet's land area, notcounting Antarctica, and the proportion is rising. World food output per head has risen by 4 per cent between the 1970s and 1980s mainly as a result of increases in yields from land already in cultivation, but also because more land has been brought under the plough. Higher yields have been achieved by increased irrigation, better crop breeding, and a doubling in the use of pesticides and chemical fertilisers in the 1970s and 1980s.Section CAll these activities may have damaging environmental impacts. For example, land clearing for agriculture is the largest single cause of deforestation; chemical fertilisers and pesticides may contaminate water supplies; more intensive farming and the abandonment of fallow periods tend to exacerbate soil erosion; and the spread of monoculture and use of high-yielding varieties of crops have been accompanied by the disappearance of old varieties of food plants which might have provided some insurance against pests or diseases in future. Soil erosion threatens the productivity of land in both rich and poor countries. The United States, where the most careful measurements have been done, discovered in 1982 that about one-fifth of its farmland was losing topsoil at a rate likely to diminish the soil's productivity. The country subsequently embarked upon a program to convert 11 per cent of its cropped land to meadow or forest. Topsoil in India and China is vanishing much faster than in America.Section DGovernment policies have frequently compounded the environmental damage that farming can cause. In the rich countries, subsidies for growing crops and price supports for farm output drive up the price of land. The annual value of these subsidies is immense: about $250 billion, or more than all World Bank lending in the 1980s. To increase the output of crops per acre, a farmer's easiest option is to use more of the most readily available inputs: fertilisers and pesticides. Fertiliser use doubled in Denmark in the period 1960-1985 and increased in The Netherlands by 150 per cent. The quantity of pesticides applied has risen too: by 69 per cent in 1975-1984 in Denmark, for example, with a rise of 115 per cent in the frequency of application in the three years from 1981.In the late 1980s and early 1990s some efforts were made to reduce farm subsidies. The most dramatic example was that of New Zealand, which scrapped most farm support in 1984. A study of the environmental effects, conducted in 1993, found that the end of fertiliser subsidies had been followed by a fall in fertiliser use (a fall compounded by the decline in world commodity prices, which cut farm incomes). The removal of subsidies also stopped land-clearing and over-stocking, which in the past had been the principal causes of erosion. Farms began to diversify. The one kind of subsidy whose removal appeared to have been bad for the environment was the subsidy to manage soil erosion. Academic Reading sample task – Matching headingsIn less enlightened countries, and in the European Union, the trend has been to reduce rather than eliminate subsidies, and to introduce new payments to encourage farmers to treat their land in environmentally friendlier ways, or to leave it fallow. It may sound strange but such payments need to be higher than the existing incentives for farmers to grow food crops. Farmers, however, dislike being paid to do nothing. In several countries they have become interested in the possibility of using fuel produced from crop residues either as a replacement for petrol (as ethanol) or as fuel for power stations (as biomass). Such fuels produce far less carbon dioxide than coal or oil, and absorb carbon dioxide as they grow. They are therefore less likely to contribute to the greenhouse effect. But they are rarely competitive with fossil fuels unless subsidised - and growing them does no less environmental harm than other crops.Section EIn poor countries, governments aggravate other sorts of damage. Subsidies for pesticides and artificial fertilisers encourage farmers to use greater quantities than are needed to get the highest economic crop yield. A study by the International Rice Research Institute of pesticide use by farmers in South East Asia found that, with pest-resistant varieties of rice, even moderate applications of pesticide frequently cost farmers more than they saved. Such waste puts farmers on a chemical treadmill: bugs and weeds become resistant to poisons, so next year's poisons must be more lethal. One cost is to human health. Every year some 10,000 people die from pesticide poisoning, almost all of them in the developing countries, and another 400,000 become seriously ill. As for artificial fertilisers, their use world-wide increased by 40 per cent per unit of farmed land between the mid 1970s and late 1980s, mostly in the developing countries. Overuse of fertilisers may cause farmers to stop rotating crops or leaving their land fallow. That, in turn, may make soil erosion worse.Section FA result of the Uruguay Round of world trade negotiations is likely to be a reduction of 36 per cent in the average levels of farm subsidies paid by the rich countries in 1986-1990. Some of the world's food production will move from Western Europe to regions where subsidies are lower or non-existent, such as the former communist countries and parts of the developing world. Some environmentalists worry about this outcome. It will undoubtedly mean more pressure to convert natural habitat into farmland. But it will also have many desirable environmental effects. The intensity of farming in the rich world should decline, and the use of chemical inputs will diminish. Crops are more likely to be grown in the environments to which they are naturally suited. And more farmers in poor countries will have the money and the incentive to manage their land in ways that are sustainable in the long run. That is important. To feed an increasingly hungry world, farmers need every incentive to use their soil and water effectively and efficiently.Reading Passage 3[Note: This is an extract from an Academic Reading passage on the development of rockets. The text preceding this extract explored the slow development of the rocket and explained the principle of propulsion.]The invention of rockets is linked inextricably with the invention of 'black powder'. Most historians of technology credit the Chinese with its discovery. They base their belief on studies of Chinese writings or on the notebooks of early Europeans who settled in or made long visits to China to study its history and civilisation. It is probable that, some time in the tenth century, black powder was first compounded from its basic ingredients of saltpetre, charcoal and sulphur. But this does not mean that it was immediately used to propel rockets. By the thirteenth century, powder-propelled fire arrows had become rather common. The Chinese relied on this type of technological development to produce incendiary projectiles of many sorts, explosive grenades and possibly cannons to repel their enemies. One such weapon was the 'basket of fire' or, as directly translated from Chinese, the 'arrows like flying leopards'. The 0.7 metre-long arrows, each with a long tube of gunpowder attached near the point of each arrow, could be fired from a long, octagonal-shaped basket at the same time and had a range of 400 paces. Another weapon was the 'arrow as a flying sabre', which could be fired from crossbows. The rocket, placed in a similar position to other rocket-propelled arrows, was designed to increase the range. A smalliron weight was attached to the 1.5m bamboo shaft, just below the feathers, to increase the arrow's stability by moving the centre of gravity to a position below the rocket. At a similar time, the Arabs had developed the 'egg which moves and burns'. This 'egg' was apparently full of gunpowder and stabilised by a 1.5m tail. It was fired using two rockets attached to either side of this tail.It was not until the eighteenth century that Europe became seriously interested in the possibilities of using the rocket itself as a weapon of war and not just to propel other weapons. Prior to this, rockets were used only in pyrotechnic displays. The incentive for the more aggressive use of rockets came not from within the European continent but from far-away India, whose leaders had built up a corps of rocketeers and used rockets successfully against the British in the late eighteenth century. The Indian rockets used against the British were described by a British Captain serving in India as ‘an iron envelope about 200 millimetres long and 40 millimetres in diameter with sharp points at the top and a 3m-long bamboo guiding stick’. In the early nineteenth century the British began to experiment with incendiary barrage rockets. The British rocket differed from the Indian version in that it was completely encased in a stout, iron cylinder, terminating in a conical head, measuring one metre in diameter and having a stick almost five metres long and constructed in such a way that it could be firmly attached to the body of the rocket. The Americans developed a rocket, complete with its own launcher, to use against the Mexicans in the mid-nineteenth century. A long cylindrical tube was propped up by two sticks and fastened to the top of the launcher, thereby allowing the rockets to be inserted and lit from the other end. However, the results were sometimes not that impressive as the behaviour of the rockets in flight was less than predictable.Questions 9 – 12Look at the following items (Questions 9-12) and the list of groups below.

His death led his father to lobby for laws to be passed to improve how schools address bullying and suicide prevention and his tragedy uncovered the devastation wrought by cyber-bullying.With development in technology, cyber bullying has become more and more prevalent. And it also brings about increasing challenges for parents and educators. This bullying in the digital age affects millions of children throughout the world each year.A.Cyber-bullying, a term only coined when Internet became more accessible and affordable for people, take various different forms from physical bullying, including sending threatening messages, displaying private messages and posting embarrassing video and photos online. “It’s school-yard bullying taken to the next level,” says Justin Patchin, a criminologist at the University of Wisconsin. Nearly three in four teens say they were bullied online at least once during a recent 12-month period, and only one in 10 reported cyber-bullying to parents or other adults, according to Jaana Juvonen, leader of a study in University of California. Another study by UK-based internet market research firm YouGov in 2006 found that cyber-bullying is even worse than physical bullying.B.Research into the causes and effects of cyber-bullying is still in its infancy. But it is becoming clear that nature of online communication determines exactly how severe the problem is. An unreal online environment encourages people to act aggressively, prompting them to do things they wouldn’t dare to try in real life. What’s more, the ability to reach more people, and the always-on culture of the internet, means that cyber-bullying can have an even more detrimental effect on the victim than conventional playground bullying.What theatens people is the sheer number of people who can view something hat is posed online. “Girls send their boyfriends photos of themselves and then hey get dumped and everyboy within he year 12 groups has a copy,”says Susan Mclean, Senior Constable from Victoria Police in Australia, “they don’understand that their words or images intended for a small audience can find an audience of millions.” It would be bad enough o be cyber-bullied by one kid and nobody else knew about it, but a video seen by hundreds or thousands of peers could be devastating.Another point is the high probability of being bullied online. “When I was a kid, playground bullying stopped when the bell rang and you went back inside or when you went home at the end of the day,” says John Carr, chair of the Children’s Charities’ Coalition for Internet Safety in London.” But with cyber-bullying, it is 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. There is no escape.” While an adult could simply turn off the computer, that’s not really an option for today’s teen, who are dependent on the internet for communicating with heir peers. A 2007 Pew study found that 93 percent of Us teens use the internet and 61 percent go online daily.C.Anonymity can also amplify bullying’s negative effects on the victim. “The psychological ramifications of not knowing who’s attacking you can be maddening,”says Robin Kowalski, a psychologist at Clemson University in South Carolina.”The bully could be your best friend, a sibling, or half the school.” In a recent, as yet unpublished survey she carried out, nearly half of the children she interviewed didn’t know who their cyber-bully was.The lack of face-to face contact migh also tempt bullies to new levels of cruelty. On the playground, seeing the stress and pain of the victim face-to-face can act as an inhibitor to some degree; however, in cyberspace, where there is no visual contact, online offenders tend to go extreme. Kowalski claims the effect is unique to computer-mediated communication. “There is a distancing of the self and immediacy in response that we don’t have in any other form of communication,” she says.” On the computer, it’s like it’s not really you.”D.So what can be done” Led by Ruth Aylet of Herio-Watt University in Edinburh, Uk, a consortium of European researchers recently developed a role-playing software called FearNot!, which aims to get children to empathise with a victim of bullying and feel in sympathy during the process. After watching a short animation of a child being bulled either in the playground or online, the viewer is asked to help the victim by typing advice into the computer. The software will be tested in schools in the Uk and Germany later this year.Meanwhile, some governments have taken legislative actions. In January 2006, the US Congress passed a law making it a federal crime to” annoy, abuse, theaten or harass” another person over the internet. Approximately 36 states have enacted similar legislation. And in South Korea, the”internet real-name system”’ introduced last month, forces online portals and news websites to record the identities of people who post content and to disclose their contact details if someone wants to sue them for libel or infringement of privacy.However, it can be difficult to persuade people to take these laws seriously, and in the Us They only apply to over-18s. “Many jurisdictions don’t want o investigate or prosecute these cases,”says A1 Kush of Wired , an internet safety advocacy group based in Seattle, Washington. “They are short-staffed and busy pursuing what hey call “real crime.”E.However, it can be difficult to persuade people to take these laws seriously, and in the US they only apply to over-18s. “Many jurisdictions don’t want to investigate or prosecute these cases,”says A1 Kush of , an internet safety advocacy group based in Seattle, Washington. “They are short-staffed and busy pursuing what they call real crime.”Questions 5-8Look at the following statements and he list of people below.Match each statement with the correct person.Write the correct letter A-F in boxes 5-8 on your answer sheet.5.The probability of cyber-bullying was higher than that of schoolyard bullying.6.The victimized rarely reported to their adult supervisors.7.It is usually considered as minor offences instead of crimes.8.Bullies don’t use real names and identifications.A.Robin KowalskiB.AI KushC.John CarrD.Ruth AylettE.Susan McleanF.Jaana JuvonenQuestions 9-13Do the following statements agree with the information given in reading passage1?

Applying the most conservative estimates to current demographic trends, the human population will increase by about three billion people by then. An estimated 109 hectares of new land (about 20% larger than Brazil) will be needed to grow enough food to feed them, if traditional farming methods continue as they are practised today. At present, throughout the world, over 80% of the land that is suitable for raising crops is in use. Historically, some 15% of that has been laid waste by poor management practices. What can be done to ensure enough food for the world’s population to live onThe concept of indoor farming is not new, since hothouse production of tomatoes and other produce has been in vogue for some time. What is new is the urgent need to scale up this technology to accommodate another three billion people. Many believe an entirely new approach to indoor farming is required, employing cutting-edge technologies. One such proposal is for the ‘Vertical Farm’.The concept is of multi-storey buildings in which food crops are grown in environmentally controlled conditions. Situated in the heart of urban centres, they would drastically reduce the amount of transportationrequired to bring food to consumers. Vertical farms would need to be efficient, cheap to construct and safe to operate. If successfully implemented, proponents claim, vertical farms offer the promise of urban renewal, sustainable production of a safe and varied food supply (through year-round production of all crops), and the eventual repair of ecosystems that have been sacrificed for horizontal farming.It took humans 10,000 years to learn how to grow most of the crops we now take for granted. Along the way, we despoiled most of the land we worked, often turning verdant, natural ecozones into semi-arid deserts. Within that same time frame, we evolved into an urban species, in which 60% of the human population now lives vertically in cities. This means that, for the majority, we humans have shelter from the elements, yet we subject our food-bearing plants to the rigours of the great outdoors and can do no more than hope for a good weather year. However, more often than not now, due to a rapidly changing climate, that is not what happens. Massive floods, long droughts, hurricanes and severe monsoons take their toll each year, destroying millions of tons of valuable crops.The supporters of vertical farming claim many potential advantages for the system. For instance, crops would be produced all year round, as they would be kept in artificially controlled, optimum growing conditions. There would be no weather-related crop failures due to droughts, floods or pests. All the food could be grown organically, eliminating the need for herbicides, pesticides and fertilisers. The system would greatly reduce the incidence of many infectious diseases that are acquired at theagricultural interface. Although the system would consume energy, it would return energy to the grid via methane generation from composting nonedible parts of plants. It would also dramatically reduce fossil fuel use, by cutting out the need for tractors, ploughs and shipping.A major drawback of vertical farming, however, is that the plants would require artificial light. Without it, those plants nearest the windows would be exposed to more sunlight and grow more quickly, reducing the efficiency of the system. Singlestorey greenhouses have the benefit of natural overhead light: even so, many still need artificial lighting.A multi-storey facility with no natural overhead light would require far more. Generating enough light could be prohibitively expensive, unless cheap, renewable energy is available, and this appears to be rather a future aspiration than a likelihood for the near future.One variation on vertical farming that has been developed is to grow plants in stacked trays that move on rails. Moving the trays allows the plants to get enough sunlight. This system is already in operation, and works well within a single-storey greenhouse with light reaching it from above: it is not certain, however, that it can be made to work without that overhead natural light.Vertical farming is an attempt to address the undoubted problems that we face in producing enough food for a growing population. At the moment,though, more needs to be done to reduce the detrimental impact it would have on the environment, particularly as regards the use of energy. While it is possible that much of our food will be grown in skyscrapers in future, most experts currently believe it is far more likely that we will simply use the space available on urban rooftops.Complete the sentences below.Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the passage for each answer.Indoor farming1.Some food plants, including __________________, are already grownindoors.2.Vertical farms would be located in __________________, meaningthat there would be less need to take them long distances to customers.3.Vertical farms could use methane from plants and animals to produce__________________.4.The consumption of __________________ would be cut becauseagricultural vehicles would be unnecessary.5.The fact that vertical farms would need _______________ light isa disadvantage.6.One form of vertical farming involves planting in __________________which are not fixed.7.The most probable development is that food will be grown on_______________ in towns and cities.Section 3:Listening (15 Mins)__________________________________________________________ _Questions 1-6Complete the notes below.Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.Questions 5 and 6Choose TWO letters A-E.Which two things are included of the tourA. fishing tripB. guided bushwalkC. reptile park entryD. table tennisE. tennisQuestions 7-10Complete the sentences belowWrite NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.7.

Although it is late in the school year; you should take action by reassuring your son that he did nothing to bring this on and that you will help him. Many parents; unfortunately; think that bullying and being bullied are rites of passage; something all kids endure at some point in their lives just like suffering through boring assemblies and bad cafeteria food. But bullying is not; and should not be; considered a normal part of growing up.Studies done in Norway show that bullying is most common in the younger age groups but is still present even in the mid –teens. The percent of children who are bullied ranges from 17% in the second grade to about 5% in the ninth grade. A recent survey in the United States shows that 10% of children reported being bullied; 13% reported being a bully; and 6% reported being both bullied and being the bully. This survey was limited to sixth through tenth graders. What is bullyingBullying involves intentional and repeated actions and words designed to intimidate or hurt another person. There is usually an imbalance of power; either physical or psychological; between the perpetrator and his or her victim. Occasional name calling and shoving are not considered bullying because they are usually not repetitive events. On the other hand; if a child is on the receiving end of aunts and name calling by any persons regularly; then that is considered bullying. Physical aggression; social alienation; verbal aggression; and intimidation are the four main categories of bullying.Many parents are shocked when they find out their child has been the victim of a bully; and a few parents are shocked to find out that their child has been a bully .Victims tend to be more passive; anxious; and insecure than non-victims and to have more negative views of themselves. A small percentage of victims are termed“provocative”because they are both anxious and aggressive; often seeking the attention of the perpetrator.The bullies; by comparison; tend to be aggressive children and frequently lack empathy for others. Bullies usually have a positive self-image and a desire to be in control. The bully cherishes power. The cherished myth of the bully as a loner with a poor self-image seeking to bolster his own self-worth by attacking others didn’t hold up to scrutiny of scientific study. Of course; there will always be victims and perpetrators who do not fit these profilesAny child can be a bully; and any child can be bullied if the circumstances are right.Although bullying is common; studies report that only half the children report what is happening to a parent; and even fewer to a teacher. Few adults witness the acts of the bully because most aggression occurs at school and places where there is little oversight by an adult. The playground; cafeteria; and rest rooms are common locations for the perpetrator to act.Children who are victims may develop a variety of vague health complaints to avoid going to school or wherever the bullying is taking place. Sometimes this kind of school avoidance behavior can be a red flag for parents; so ask your child if he or she is being picked on and bullied.What go do about bullyingIf your child reveals to you that he or she is being bullied; take action. Parents can help the child by teaching him how to demonstrate an air of self-confidence by making good eye contact; speaking clearly and loudly enough to be heard. Remind the child to walk away from the encounter; tell the bully firmly that he is in the wrong; and to tell a teacher; parent or other adult what is happening.Parents of bullies should also intervene to stop the behavior and make it clear that bullying will not be tolerated or ignored. One study showed that 60% of boys who were identified as bullies in grades six through nine had at least one criminal conviction by age 24 years; between 35%and 40% of these children had three or more criminal convictions by that same age. Psychological counseling is often helpful and may identify the underlying problems such as depression or conduct disorder.There are many resources for parents and teachers. There are a number of good books such as Tackling Bullying in Your School: A Practical Handbook for Teachers by Sharp and Smith as well as Bully Proofing Your School by Garrity; Jens and Porter.Questions1-4Based on your reading of the text; complete the sentences below with words taken from the passage. Use NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Write your answers in boxes 1-4 on your answer sheet.1.The four main categories of bullying include physical aggression; socialalienation; ----; and intimidation.2.Victims of bullying are said to have more negative views of themselves andtend to be more passive; anxious; and ----3.The bullies tend to be ----and frequently lack empathy for others.mon locations of bullying include the playground; cafeteria; and ----Questions 5-10Read the following statements and say how they reflect the information in the reading passage.T if it accurately reflects the information givenF if it does not reflect the informationNG if the information is not clearly given in the passage5.According to the author; bullying and being bullied should be consideredas a normal part of growing up.6.Occasional name calling and shoving are not considered bullying becausethey usually do no harm to the victims.7.Victims are described as more passive; anxious; and insecure thannon-victims and are diffident.8.Studies reveal that children trust their teachers more than their parentswhen they are confronted with bullying.9.Children who are bullying sometimes even play truant.10.

Sturgeon displayed its power by lifting nine pounds with a seven-ounce piece of iron wrapped with wires through which the current of a single cell battery was sent.In 1830; an American; Joseph Henry 1797-1878; demonstrated the potential of Sturgeon’s device for long-distance communication by sending an electronic current over one mile of wire to activate an electromagnet which caused a bell to strike. Thus the electric telegraph was born. Samuel F. B. Morse 1797-1872; whose sketches of a “magnetized magnet”in operation are shown here; successfully exploited Henry’s invention commercially.While a professor of arts and design at New York University in 1835; Samuel Morse proved that signals could be transmitted by wire. He used pulses of current to deflect an electromagnet; which moved a marker to produce written codes on a strip of paper---the invention of Morse Code. The following year; the device was modified to emboss the paper with dots and dashes. He gave a public demonstration in 1838; but it was not until five years later that Congress reflecting public apathy funded $30;000 to construct an experimental telegraph line from Washington to Baltimore; a distance of 40 miles.Six years later; members of Congress witnessed the sending and receiving of messages over part of the telegraph line. Before the line had reached Baltimore; the Whig party held its national convention there; and on May 1; 1844; nominated Henry Clay. This news was hand-carried to Annapolis Junction between Washington and Baltimore where Morse’s partner; Alfred Vail; wired it to the Capitol. This was the firs news dispatched by electric telegraph.The message;“What hath God wrought”sent later by “Morse Code”from the old Supreme Court chamber in the United States Capitol to his partner in Baltimore; officially opened the completed line of May 24;1844. Morse allowed Annie Ellsworth; the young daughter of a friend; to choose the words of the message; and she selected a verse from Numbers XXIII; 23:“What hath God wrought” which was recorded onto paper tape. Morse’s early system produced a paper copy with raised dots and dashes; which were translated later by and operator; Painting: Self Portrait by Samuel Morse -- Inventor of the TelegraphSamuel Morse and his associates obtained private funds to extend their line to Philadelphia and New York .Small telegraph companies; meanwhile began functioning in the East; South; and Midwest. Dispatching trains by telegraph started in 1851; the same year Western Union began business. Western Union built its first transcontinental telegraph line in 1861; mainly along rights-of-way. In 1881; the Postal Telegraph System entered the field for economic reasons; and merged with Western Union in 1943.The original Morse telegraph printed code on tape. However; in the United States the operation developed into sending by key and receiving by ear. A trained Morse operator could transmit 40 to 50 words per minute. Automatic transmission; introduced in 1914; handled more than twice that number.In 1913 Western Union developed multiplexing; which made it possible to transmit eight messages simultaneously over a single wire four in each direction Teleprinter machines came into use about 1925. Varioplex; introduced in 1936; enabled a single wire to carry 72 transmissions at the same time 36 in each direction. Two years later Western Union introduced the first of its automatic facsimile devices. In 1959 Western Union inaugurated TELEX which enables subscribers to the teleprinter service to dial each other directly. Until 1877; all rapid long-distance communication depended upon the telegraph. That year; a rival technology developed that would again change the face of communication ----the telephone. By 1879; patent litigation between Western Union and the infant telephone system was ended in an agreement that largely separated the two services.Samuel Morse is best known as the inventor of the telegraph; but he is also esteemed for his contributions to American portraiture.

Applying the most conservative estimates to current demographic trends, the human population will increase by about three billion people by then. An estimated 109 hectares of new land (about 20% larger than Brazil) will be needed to grow enough food to feed them, if traditional farming methods continue as they are practised today. At present, throughout the world, over 80% of the land that is suitable for raising crops is in use. Historically, some 15% of that has been laid waste by poor management practices. What can be done to ensure enough food for the world’s population to live on?The concept of indoor farming is not new, since hothouse production of tomatoes and other produce has been in vogue for some time. What is new is the urgent need to scale up this technology to accommodate another three billion people. Many believe an entirely new approach to indoor farming is required, employing cutting-edgetechnologies. One such proposal is for the ‘Vertical Farm’.The concept is of multi-storey buildings in which food crops are grown in environmentally controlled conditions. Situated in the heart of urban centres, they would drastically reduce the amount of transportation required to bring food to consumers. Vertical farms would need to be efficient, cheap to construct and safe to operate. If successfully implemented, proponents claim, vertical farms offer the promise of urban renewal, sustainable production of a safe and varied food supply (through year-round production of all crops), and the eventual repair of ecosystems that have been sacrificed for horizontal farming.It took humans 10,000 years to learn how to grow most of the crops we now take for granted. Along the way, we despoiled most of the land we worked, often turning verdant, natural ecozones into semi-arid deserts. Within that same time frame, we evolved into an urban species, in which 60% of the human population now lives vertically in cities. This means that, for the majority, we humans have shelter from the elements, yet we subject our food-bearing plants to the rigours of the great outdoors and can do no more than hope for a good weather year. However, more often than not now, due to a rapidly changing climate, that is not what happens. Massive floods, long droughts, hurricanes and severe monsoons take their toll each year, destroying millions of tons of valuable crops.The supporters of vertical farming claim many potential advantages for the system. For instance, crops would be produced all year round, as they would be kept in artificially controlled, optimum growing conditions. There would be no weather-related crop failures due to droughts, floods or pests. All the food could be grown organically, eliminating the need for herbicides, pesticides and fertilisers. The system would greatly reduce the incidence of many infectious diseases that are acquired at the agricultural interface. Although the system would consume energy, it would return energy to the grid via methane generation from composting nonedible parts of plants. It would also dramatically reduce fossil fuel use, by cutting out theneed for tractors, ploughs and shipping.A major drawback of vertical farming, however, is that the plants would require artificial light. Without it, those plants nearest the windows would be exposed to more sunlight and grow more quickly, reducing the efficiency of the system. Singlestorey greenhouses have the benefit of natural overhead light: even so, many still need artificial lighting.A multi-storey facility with no natural overhead light would require far more. Generating enough light could be prohibitively expensive, unless cheap, renewable energy is available, and this appears to be rather a future aspiration than a likelihood for the near future.One variation on vertical farming that has been developed is to grow plants in stacked trays that move on rails. Moving the trays allows the plants to get enough sunlight. This system is already in operation, and works well within a single-storey greenhouse with light reaching it from above: it is not certain, however, that it can be made to work without that overhead natural light.Vertical farming is an attempt to address the undoubted problems that we face in producing enough food for a growing population. At the moment, though, more needs to be done to reduce the detrimental impact it would have on the environment, particularly as regards the use of energy. While it is possible that much of our food will be grown in skyscrapers in future, most experts currently believe it is far more likely that we will simply use the space available on urban rooftops.Complete the sentences below.Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the passage for each answer.Indoor farming1.Some food plants, including __________________, are already grown indoors.2.Vertical farms would be located in __________________, meaning that therewould be less need to take them long distances to customers.3.Vertical farms could use methane from plants and animals to produce __________________.4.The consumption of __________________ would be cut because agriculturalvehicles would be unnecessary.5.The fact that vertical farms would need _______________ light is a disadvantage.6.One form of vertical farming involves planting in __________________ whichare not fixed.7.The most probable development is that food will be grown on _______________in towns and cities.Section 3:Listening (15 Mins)___________________________________________________________ Questions 1-6Complete the notes below.Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.

Each such innovation has changed the industry irreversibly; each has been accompanied by a period of fear mixed with exhilaration. The arrival of digital technology, which translates music, pictures and text into the zeros and ones of computer language, marks one of those periods.B .This may sound familiar, because the digital revolution, and the explosion of choice thatwould go with it, has been heralded for some time. In 1992, John Malone, chief executive of TCI, an American cable giant, welcomed the '500-channel universe'. Digital television was about to deliver everything except pizzas to people's living rooms. When the entertainment companies tried out the technology, it worked fine - but not at a price that people were prepared to pay.C .Those 500 channels eventually arrived but via the Internet and the PC rather than throughtelevision. The digital revolution was starting to affect the entertainment business in unexpected ways. Eventually it will change every aspect of it, from the way cartoons are made to the way films are screened to the way people buy music. That much is clear. What nobody is sure of is how it will affect the economics of the business.D .New technologies always contain within them both threats and opportunities. They have thepotential both to make the companies in the business a great deal richer, and to sweep them away. Old companies always fear new technology. Hollywood was hostile to television, television terrified by the VCR. Go back far enough, points out Hal V arian, an economist at the University of California at Berkeley, and you find publishers complaining that 'circulating libraries' would cannibalise their sales. Y et whenever a new technology has come in, it has made more money for existing entertainment companies. The proliferation of the means of distribution results, gratifyingly, in the proliferation of dollars, pounds, pesetas and the rest to pay for it.E .All the same, there is something in the old companies' fears. New technologies may notthreaten their lives, but they usually change their role. Once television became widespread, film and radio stopped being the staple form of entertainment. Cable television has undermined the power of the broadcasters. And as power has shifted the movie studios, the radio companies and the television broadcasters have been swallowed up. These days, the grand old names of entertainment have more resonance than power. Paramount is part of Viacom, a cable company; Universal, part of Seagram, a drinks-and-entertainment company;MGM, once the roaring lion of Hollywood, has been reduced to a whisper because it is not part of one of the giants. And RCA, once the most important broadcasting company in the world, is now a recording label belonging to Bertelsmann, a large German entertainment company.F.Part of the reason why incumbents got pushed aside was that they did not see what was coming. But they also faced a tighter regulatory environment than the present one. In America, laws preventing television broadcasters from owning programme companies were repealed earlier this decade, allowing the creation of vertically integrated businesses.Greater freedom, combined with a sense of history, prompted the smarter companies in the entertainment business to re-invent themselves. They saw what happened to those of their predecessors who were stuck with one form of distribution. So, these days, the powers in the entertainment business are no longer movie studios, or television broadcasters, or publishers;all those businesses have become part of bigger businesses still, companies that can both create content and distribute it in a range of different ways.G .Out of all this, seven huge entertainment companies have emerged - Time Warner, WaltDisney, Bertelsmann, Viacom, News Corp, Seagram and Sony. They cover pretty well every bit of the entertainment business except pornography. Three are American, one is Australian, one Canadian, one German and one Japanese. 'What you are seeing', says Christopher Dixon, managing director of media research at PaineWebber, a stockbroker, 'is the creation of a global oligopoly. It happened to the oil and automotive businesses earlier this century; now it is happening to the entertainment business.' It remains to be seen whether the latest technology will weaken those great companies, or make them stronger than ever.Questions 21-28Reading Passage 2 has seven paragraphs A-G.Which paragraph mentions the following (Questions 21-28)?Write the appropriate letters (A-G) in boxes 21-28on your answer sheet.NB Some of the paragraphs will be used more than once.21.the contrasting effects that new technology can have on existing business22.the fact that a total transformation is going to take place in the future in the delivery of allforms of entertainment23.the confused feelings that people are known to have experienced in response to technologicalinnovation24. the fact that some companies have learnt from the mistakes of others25.the high cost to the consumer of new ways of distributing entertainment26.uncertainty regarding the financial impact of wider media access27.the fact that some companies were the victims of strict government policy28.the fact that the digital revolution could undermine the giant entertainment companies Questions 29-32The writer refers to various individuals and companies in the reading passage.
