get fewer chances than people living in the richer more populous south Oxford and Cambridge University now take the majority of their students 53 percent from publicly funded schools Elite 精英 private schools such as Eton and Harrow account for the other 47 percent even though they serve only 7 percent of secondary students A BBC reporter had seen notes of Spence s interview at Magdalen As with other comprehensive school pupils she s low in confidence and difficult to draw out of herself in spite of being able to think on her feet the BBC quoted the notes as saying Still the notes concluded that Spence will be an excellent doctor 7 It appears as if some of our institutions have admissions procedures which may be because of absurd prejudices against children from comprehensive schools are not giving these children a fair crack of the whip Education Minister Wicks told the BBC 60 Laura Spence was rejected by Oxford University because A she was a girl of 18 years old B she lacked confidence and she couldn t think by herself C she didn t win excellent grades D she was a shy girl from a comprehensive school in the poorer less populous north 61 If Laura Spence was from such a school as Eton A she would be admitted to Oxford B she would be accepted by Harvard C she could cause long running problems about elitism in British education D she wouldn t be an excellent doctor 62

historian Alan Brinkley D Doors and windows can t keep them out airport immigration officers can t stop them and the Internet is a complete reproduction soil They seem harmless in small doses but large imports threaten Japan s very uniqueness say critics They are foreign words and they are infecting the Japanese language Sometimes I feel like I need a translator to understand my own language says Yoko Fujimura with little anger a 60 year old Tokyo restaurant worker It s becoming incomprehensible It s not only Japan who is on the defensive Countries around th globe are wet through their hands over the rapid spread of American English Coca Cola for example is one of the most recognized terms on Earth It is made worse for Japan however by its unique writing system The country writes all imported utterances 言论 except Chinese in a different script called katakana 片假名 It is the only country to keep up such a difference Katakana takes far more space to write than kanji the core pictograph 象形文字 characters that the Japanese borrowed from China 1 500 years ago Because it stands out readers complain that sentences packed with foreign words start to look like extended strings of lights As if that weren t enough katakana terms tend to get puzzling For example digital camera first appears as degitaru kamera Then they became the more ear pleasing digi kamey But kamey is also the Japanese word for turtle It s very disappointing not knowing what young people are 9 talking about says humorously Minoru Shiratori a 53 year old bus driver Sometimes I can t tell if they re discussing cameras or turtles In a bid to stop the flood of katakana the government has formed a Foreign Words Committee to find suitable Japanese replacements The committee is slightly different from French style language police which try to support a law that forbids advertising in English Rather committee members and traditionalists hope a non stop campaign of persuasion gentle criticism and leadership by example can turn the tide 67 According to the author the reason why the Japanese is infectd greatly by English is A that nothing can prevent it from entering into Japan B that English is the most recognized language in the world C that the government has not set up a special administration department to control this trend before it becomes popular in Japan D not clearly mentioned in this passage 68 By saying counties around the globe are wet through their hands over the rapid spread of American English the author infers that A even a restaurant worker in Japan may feel the English infection on Japanese B the flood of katakana has covered most of countries in the world C Coca Cola is the most popuar on the earth and this product covers all the global market D many other countries are affected greatly by American English 69 According to the author the last paragraph mainly deals with A how French style language police has prevented the infection of English B how Japanese Foreign Words Committee prevents the infection of foreign words C the suitable Japanese replacements D why committee members and traditionalists begin to declare a war against the infection of foreign words 70 Which conclusion can be drawn based on the opinions from the Japanese people in paragraph 2 and 4 of this passage A The elders strongly advocates replacing the foreign words than young people B All the people dislike speaking the foreign words such as digi kamey C They are so old that it is necessary to give some language assistance by a specialist D People s work determines the language they speak E More surprising perhaps than the present difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and thriving As Skolnick 10 notes Americans are a marrying people relative to Europeans more of us marry and we marry at a younger age Moreover after a drop in the early 1970s the rate of marriage in the United States is now increasing Even the
