Part III          Reading Comprehension           (40 minutes)

    This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfil. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.
Task 1
Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40 . for each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A),B),C),or D). You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Many of us have a vague feeling that things are moving faster. Doctors and executives often complain that they cannot keep up with the latest developments in their fields. Hardly a meeting or conference takes place today without some talk about "the challenge of change. " Among many there is an uneasy mood -a suspicion that change is out of control.
Not everyone, however, shares this anxiety. Millions sleepwalk their way through their lives as if nothing had changed since the 1930's ,and as if nothing ever will. Living in what is certainly one of thee most exciting periods in human history, they attempt to withdraw from it ,to block it out, as if it were possible to make it go away by ignoring it.
One sees then everywhere. Old people, resigned to live out their years, attempting to avoid, at any cost, the intrusion of the new. People of thirty-five and forty-five, nervous about student riots, sex, L.S.D., or miniskirts, feverishly attempting to persuade themselves that, after all ,youth was always rebellious, and that what is happening today is no different from the past. Even among the young we find an incomprehension of change: students so ignorant of the past that they see nothing unusual about the present.
The disturbing fact is that the vast majority of people find the idea of change so threatening that they attempt to deny its  existence. Even many people who understand intellectually that change is accelerating ,do not take this critical social fact into account in planning their own personal lives.

36. What is the main idea of the passage??
A) Things are moving faster.
B) Change is out of control.
C) People react differently to changes.
D) Young students are ignorant of changes.
37. Doctors and executives often complain because              .
A) people change their attitude towards them.

C) an easy mood catch up with them.
D) they cannot keep in step with the changes.

A) overlook                   B) discover 
C) understand                 D) are against
39. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A) Old people are in favour of new things that come into existence.
B)The middle-aged try their best to understand the young.
C)The young do not like things in the past.
D) Intellectuals find the change comprehensible.
40. Most people think that the idea of change is             .
