First, there are those words 1 which we become acquainted in daily conversation, which we 2 , that is to say, fromthe 3 of our won family and from our familiar associates, and 4 we should know and use 5_we could not read or write. They 6 the common things of life, and are the stock in trade of all who 7 the language. Such words may be called “popular”, since they belong to the people 8 and are not theexclusive 9 of a limited class. On the other hand, our language 10 a multitude of words which are comparatively 11 used in ordinary conversation. Their meanings are known to every educated person, but there is little 12 to use them at home or in themarket-place. Our 13 acquaintance with them comes not from our mothers 14 or from the talk of our schoolmates, 15 from books that we read, lectures that we 16 , or the more 17 conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular 18 in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual 19 of everyday life. Such words are called “learned” words, and the 20 between them and the “popular” words is of great importance to a right understanding of linguistic process...8.19.20.A) atC) byA) studyC) stimulateA) matesC) membersA) whichC) thoseA) even C) even ifA) mindC) careA) hireC) adoptA) in publicC) at largeA) rightC) shareA) consistsC) constitutesA) seldomC) neverA) prospectC) reasonA) primaryC) principalA) tipsC) lipsA) besidesC) orA) hear ofC) hear fromA) formerC) formalA) themeC) ideaA) borderC) degreeA) diversionC) diversityB) withD) throughB) imitateD) learnB) relativesD) fellowsB) thatD) onesB) despiteD) in spite ofB) concernD) relateB) applyD) useB) at mostD) at bestB) privilegeD) possessionB) comprisesD) composesB) muchD) oftenB) wayD) necessityB) firstD) priorB) mouthD) tongueB) andD) butB) attendD) listenB) formulaD) formativeB) topicD) pointB) linkD) extentB) distinctionD) similarityPassage 2The Chinese New Year is a big traditional holiday in Singapore. On its Eve, while many will 1 for the reunion dinner, others will head for the airport or train station to “flee” 2 such festivities.With a 3 number of Singaporeans going on overseas tours during this time, the Chinese New Year holiday has in recent years become a 4 season for travel agents, 5 it used to be a lull period for them.Isnt Chinese New Year the 6 important traditional festival for the Chinese? Well, for those who choose to 7 a flight, it means an opportunity to enjoy a holiday out of the country.

The Chinese, Malays and Indians all have their own traditional festivals 10 which they derive “a sense of belonging to a particular community”.

The problem is: You cannot deny your ethnic origins or change your skin color. We are 13 with a certain skin color which cannot be “bleached” if one has a “yellow face” and yet refuse to 14 with the Chinese, who else can he or she identify with?Secondly, the 15 spirit of the more than 2000-year-old Chinese New Year is closely intertwined with the traditional culture and values of the Chinese. 16 its core is the Confucian value of good interpersonal relationships. Traditional Chinese festivals 17 center on maintaining and improving human relations.Reunion dinner helps to 18 family ties while the exchange of gifts and greetings enhance relations among friends. To skip the reunion dinner and stay 19 from Chinese New Year means losing many great opportunities to forge stronger kinship and friendship ties.A tradition must be capable of being 20 down from one generation to another. Yet this does not mean traditions cannot be changed...8.19.20.A) separateC) gatherA) fromC) overA) constantC) stableA) moderateC) gloomyA) althoughC) soA) lessC) desiredA) denyC) takeA) in publicC) at largeA) preserveC) noteA) fromC) onA) haveC) inA) takeC) rejectA) bornC) havingA) liveC) identifyA) superficialC) essenceA) InC) ByA) seldomC) invariablyA) improveC) maintainA) awakeC) homeA) preservedC) passedB) inviteD) longB) forD) back toB) decreaseD) increasingB) peakD) festivalB) despiteD) becauseB) moreD) mostB) delayD) missB) at mostD) at bestB) concealD) disguiseB) toD) likeB) asD) onB) refuteD) endureB) givenD) coveredB) recognizeD) realizeB) marginalD) fundamentalB) AtD) WithB) frequentD) hardlyB) deepenD) refurbishB) awayD) aloftB) handledD) changedPassage 3People from different cultures sometimes do things that make each other uncomfortable without meaning to or sometimes without even realizing it.
