Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Questions 1-5We live, it is said, in a world of standardization: a place in which increasingly you can buy the same thingscappuccinos, food, cosmetics, fashionsin similar shops, in similar malls, in similar cities. The heart laments this and hopes it isnt really happening. The head, though, has to accept that it has advantages, for standardized products save time, reduce confusion, and may be cheaper and more predictable, especially when attached to a trusted brand. There is one market, however, in which hearts and heads alike are forcing things in a different direction: womens clothing. There, the customer is queen, and she seems to prefer confusion.It is not the fashions themselves that are flouting standardization. It is the sizes in which they are sold. Once upon a time these were predictable and numerological, even if the numbers used varied from country to country. It did not matter if a size 12 dress in Britain was called a 38 in Germany and a 44 in Italy, for a simple conversion chart would suffice. No longer. Increasingly, size is a matter of vanity not of measurement, for women have, well, become larger in various ways. Not surprisingly, they would like to have their cake, eat it, and stay exactly the same dress size. Some clothing firms have accommodated such delusional desires by sticking to the same sizing numbers but making the clothes larger. Others have resorted to therapeutic wordspetite, regular, “missy”. In America, it is even possible to buy womens clothes in size 0; presumably negative sizing cannot be far behind. Men are, of course, going through the same dimensional change. They are not, however, encountering, or inviting, the same confusion. Occasionally it may be hard to work out what exactly is meant by “medium” or “extra large”, but mainly real measurements still rule. This may be because men have another option: for suitwearers the best trick is to buy not the right new size but a size too big, for then the suit looks loose and people may be fooled into thinking you are getting slimmer, not fatter. Or perhaps their vanity is of a more primitive sort. A (possibly apocryphal) story about Winston Churchill has the great man recommending that among aid shipments sent during the second world war should be packages of British condoms, all large size but labeled “small”.But for women, meanwhile, shopping is becoming harder: more things must be tried on, taking more time, and buying online is a poor option. Central planners, ignoring the fact that this is the result of expressed female preferences, would want standardization reimposed. Heres an alternative suggestion for our freer era: clothing firms could agree a standard sizing to be put on some sort of bar code or tag. Then those who want speed and clarity could buy (or be given) an electronic reader to find out the easily comparable truth. Those who would rather fool themselves can continue to do so by reading the written labels. Such are the workings of invisible hands. 1.Which of the following topics is mainly discussed in the passage?A.World Standardization OrganizationB.some new development in womens clothesC.standardization in various aspects of social lifeD.the dynamics of free market economy in the world of fashion2.Which of the following best explains the sentence “Increasingly, size is a matter of vanity not of measurement” in paragraph 2?A.Women are proud of getting larger in size.B.Women are eager to have their sizes precisely measured.C.Women feel good when their sizes are measured smaller.D.Womens vanity cannot be measured correctly.3.Which of the following is NOT implied in the sentences “Men are, of course, going through the same dimensional change.

Almost half the secondary schools surveyed and one in five primaries have increased class sizes as a result.The report, by Professor Alan Smithers and Dr Pamela Robinson from the University of Liverpool, shows the budget crisis is worse than thought. It also questions Government claims that the number of “loser” schools are in a minority, with an estimate that between 14 000 and 15 000 of the countrys 23 000 state schools suffered a budget cut in real terms. In all, 56 percent of primary schools and 63 percent of secondaries surveyed reported that this years budget was worse than last year. The funding cuts were the first since Labour came to power in 1997, pledging to make education a top priority. “The consequences for the majority of schools have been disastrous,” Professor Smithers said.The report shows 8 800teaching posts (5 502in primary schools and 3 115in secondaries) were cut along with 12 300support staff. About 2 000teachers were made redundant, compared with the 500 redundancies estimated by Prime Minister Tony Blair earlier in the summer. The report said some schools emerged as “winners”, taking on teachers. But the net reduction in teachers jobs was 4 537, putting the pressure on Labours election pledge to employ 10 000 extra teachers in its second term.Doug McAvoy, general secretary of the National Union of Teachers, which commissioned the research, said ministers were “deliberately underfunding schools” so that heads were forced to employ cheaper classroom assistants. The union is opposed to a national agreement on reducing teachers workload which allows classroom assistants to take control of lessons. “The impact on the pupils could be devastating,” Mr.McAvoy said, “We dont think this is happening by chance. It is a deliberate government policy.”Professor Smithers said schools would struggle to avoid further redundancies, despite800 million in funding pledged for the next two years. Many schools had slashed their reserves and could not protect teachers jobs. He said class sizes were “nudging upwards” as a result of the funding cuts, and over 40 percent of secondary schools said more classes would be taken by teachers not trained in the relevant subject.Primary schools said that head teachers and senior staff would have to do more teaching. “Primary schools were often planning to reduce the teachers already very limited planning, preparation, marking and assessment time,” the report said. Under the new teachers contract, however, they should be guaranteed 10 percent of time away from the classroom by 2005.The report was based on a survey of 980 primary schools and 368 secondaries. The Department of Education has questioned the findings, saying the report “appears to have lost touch with reality.” “The scale of these figures, based on a very small sample, does not tally with assessments we have seen from other teachers unions,” a spokesman said. Graham Lane, Labour education chairman of the Local Government Association, said: “In surveys like this, the schools that have got problems respond.”6.Which of the following is NOT an impact of the policy on classes involved?A.some teachers will be laid offB.the size of some classes will be increasedC.teachers workload will be increasedD.some classroom assistants will help teaching7.Which of the following word is closest in meaning to “devastating” in paragraph 4?A.destructiveB.delusiveC.devaluatingD.demonizing8.Whats the response of the Department of Education towards the report by Profe
