Once, a cap seller was passing through a jungle. He was dead tired and needed to rest. Then,
he stopped spread a cloth under a tree. He placed his bag of caps near him and lay down with
his cap on his head.

The cap seller had a sound sleep for one hour. When he got up, the first thing he did was to
look into his bag. He was startled when he found all his caps were not there. He was
wondering where they could have gone. Indeed, he was greatly puzzled.

When he looked up sky, he was very surprised to see monkeys sitting on the branches
of a tree, each wearing a cap on his head. They had evidently done it to imitate him.

He decided to get his caps back by making a humble request to the monkeys. In return,
the monkeys only made faces of him. When he began to make gestures, even when he raised
his fi st towards them to threaten them, they also imitated him.

At last he hit upon a clever idea. “Monkeys are a great imitator,” he thought. So he took
off his own cap and threw it down on the ground. As he had expected, all the monkeys took
off the caps threw them down on the ground. Quickly he stood up and collected the caps, put
them back into his bag and went away

Dear Sir or Madam,

Yesterday I moved to a house rented from your agency in Brighton Boulevard. To my

surprise, I found the house is not well maintained.

The master bedroom has no key. The air conditioner does not work. How could I use my
washing machine if the outlet is missing? The worst of all is that the main faucet has
broken that no water can flow. This makes me unable to wash, to cook and to do any
other things.

I had told Mr. David, one of your employees, about my problems but I got no response
from him. I also called your secretary Miss. Brown but again, there was no response.

I would appreciate if you send me a mechanic to have those problems fixed

immediately.

Your faithfully

Sarah Johnson

We Should Change the Payment System
Nowadays, the system of payment gradually changes. Most people use debit cards
instead of cash to make payment. They think it is more effective, efficient, easier, and
simpler. However, there are still arguments about the use of debit cards as a method of
payment.
Well, if you use the card, you will say that the card is so practical. You don’t need to
count how much you should pay. When paying in cash, people are afraid of making
mistakes in counting the banknote for both the payment and the change. With debit
cards the mistakes is made smaller.
Moreover, you should know that the debit cards are safer than money. Suppose you
bring a lot of money when travelling. If it is lost or stolen, you will be left with nothing
in your hands. However, if you bring a debit card, you can just phone the bank which
issues the card to block it.
On the other hand, people who disagree on the use of debit card will say that its use
is so limited. When you buy something in a traditional market, or a vendor, for example,
can you pay using a credit card? Of course not.
Another thing is that, if you want to use the card, you should make a purchase at
minimum amount. If you make less than the minimum transaction, you cannot make use
of the card.
For those reasons we think that credit cards are not fully effective as a means of
payment. We should trace the incoming and ongoing money in our account. Besides, we
have to control our habit of buying first, paying later habit. Otherwise, without being
realized we are charged a lot. You don’t have to use credit cards if not necessary.

18. What is the text about?

A. Differences between payments by cash and credit cards.
B. The disadvantages of paying in cash.
C. The advantages of using credit cards.
D. The advantages of using debit cards.
E. Different payment systems.

19. According to the text, one advantage of using the debit card is that ….
A. it cannot be stolen
B. it is as practical as using cash
C. we can use it everywhere for shopping
D. the possibility of mistakes in counting is smaller
E. we can make a purchase at minimum amount

20. What is paragraph 3 about?

A. Debit cards for travelling.
B. The advantage of debit cards over cash.
C. The safety system of debit cards.
D. What to do when you lose cash.
E. How to bring a debit card.

2012 Film Review

2012 is Roland Emmerich’s film which uses the Mayan Calendar and other end-of-days
prophecies for their doomsday scenario. It imagines the world coming to an end in
2012.
2012 film brings off a series of wonders. The movie hits its peak early on. It stars when
Cusack drives a limo through the streets of Los Angeles as freeway and skyscrapers
crumble all around him from the shock of a 10.5 earthquake. The preposterous flying
sequence is equally thrilling. The climax occurs aboard the giant ark. When an
equipment malfunction almost threatens the entire mission.
Unfortunately, the crucial sequence is not filmed or edited with the requisite
clarity. In 2012 film, Emmerich leaves us befuddled as to exactly what is happening to
whom. However, Emmerich’2012 deserves credit for offbeat casting. Cusack supplies
his trademark hangdog charm. McCarthy has perhaps his best role ever as Peet’s cocky.
Danny Glover lends dignity to the role of the tormented president. Chiwetel Ejiofor, as
the chief scientist, brings a moving sense of anguish to a stock role. Platt has fun playing
the villain of the piece, and Woody Harrelson also chews the scenery as a bug-eyed
radio prophet trying to warn his listeners about Armageddon.
All in one, 2012’s cinematography, production design and visual effects are
award-worthy. Music also propels the movie. It presents American Idol runner-up,
Adam Lambert, who provides a rousing anthem over the end credits.

34. The writer of the film 2012 was ....

A. Adam Lambert
B. Danny Glover
C. Cusack
D. Roland Emmerich
E. Nick Everhart

35. Which part of the film should be improved?

A. The music.
B. Visual effect.
C. The equipment.
D. Crucial sequence.
E. The design.

36. “The movie hits its peak early on “ (paragraph 2)

The underlined word is closest is meaning to ....
A. average
B. top
C. failure
D. name
E. descent

37. Read the following text and answer the question.

A lot has changed in the world since John Doe established “Doe Radio and Television
Service”. Because we are now a leader in computer and cellular telephone service, we are
