2012/2013 ADMISSION EXAMINATION PAPERPart A Reading (30%)Suggested time: 30 minutes Each question is worth onepoint.PASSAGE ONEA.Public transportation receded into a cultural backwater in the 1950s as prosperousmiddle class people took advantage of cheap gas to put into their vehicles. With access to and use of fossil fuels a growing concern in the climate-changing, post-9/11 world, people are beginning to re-evaluate. And while buses and trains are really on the same team in terms of sustainable transportation—either option a vast improvement over the one-car, one-rider model—outspoken camps have sprung up around each. The two are worth comparing.B.AccessA fixed-rail system will never have the reach of a city bus, which can get just aboutany place there’s a paved road. For folks in some parts if there’s no train nearby, their mass-transit commuting will have to be done by bus.fortStudies suggest that light rail appeals to actual riders in a way that buses do not.Commuters tend to see light rail as more modern, more upscale and safer, with no real possibility of operator error.Rail cars are more spacious, offer more freedom of movement and are easier to board and exit. And the ride is smoother: fewer sharp turns, no potholes, no sudden stops.D.Initial CostBuilding new light rail is stunningly expensive, costing tens of millions of dollars per mile. And anti-light rail types love to massage those numbers into cost comparisons to make bus travel look like a bargain. Of course, those studies tend to ignore the cost of building and maintaining the roads on which buses travel. Still, light rail can’t win this game.E.Operation and Management CostOnce light rail is up and running, both infrastructure and train cars are more durable and less expensive to maintain than a fleet of buses and the roads they use. A rail car can last up to 60 years; a bus can last maybe a quarter of that. Every bus needs one driver, while one driver can pilot a train several cars long. That means a lower payroll. And electricity is cheaper than gas.F.StyleFace it, light rail is kind of cool. Buses are not that cool.G.Resources Used/Environmental ImpactLight-rail trains run on electricity. Much of that is generated by coal, and that’s a nonrenewable resource that leaves an ecological footprint in all stages of itsproduction and use. Yet buses run on petroleum products. There aren’t many people touting fossil fuels as the energy of the future these days.H.VisionOpponents of light rail have created a category of public transportation called Bus Rapid Transit — express buses that travel at higher speeds, with fewer stops, in designated lanes.It’s a project that has been implemented successfully in places and may be integrated into a larger transit package in the future. But dozens of American cities are insisting that light rail be a part of that future.BRT may be forward-thinking, but light rail is a breakthrough, a bold move that seeks to face down our dependence on oil.[Used with permission from the Portland Tribune (Pamplin Media Group). “Bus vs. Light Rail” by Eric Bartels, 13 November 2007.]Vocabulary in ContextBelow are words and phrases from Passage One.

Some people worry that because wind is very variable, we might suddenly lose all of our electricity and find ourselves plunged into a “blackout” if we rely on it too much.B.The reality of wind is quite different. Wherever you live, your power comes froma complex grid, or network, of highly interconnected power-generating unitsranging from giant power plants to individual wind turbines. Utility companies are highly adept at balancing power generated in many different places, in many different ways, to match the total power demand as it varies from hour to hour and day to day. The power from any one wind turbine will fluctuate as the wind rises and falls, but the total power produced by thousands of turbines, widely dispersed across an entire country, is much more regular and predictable. While it’s true that you might need 1,000 wind turbines to produce as much power as a giant coal or nuclear plant, it’s also true that if a single wind turbine fails or stops turning, it causes only 1/1000th (0.1 percent) of the disruption you get when a coal or nuclear plant fails (which happens more often than you might think). It’s also worth bearing in mind that wind is extremely predictable several days in advance so it’s easy for power planners to take account of its variability as they figure out how to make enough power to meet expected demands.C.Opponents of wind power have even suggested that it might be counter-productive,because we’d still need to have backup coal or nuclear plants or some way of storing wind-generated electricity for those times when there’s not enough wind blowing. That would certainly be true if we made all our energy from one, single mega-sized wind turbine—but we don’t! In reality, even countries that have large supplies of wind energy have plenty of other sources of power too. Denmark, for example, makes 20 percent of its electricity—and meets 43 percent of its peak load—with wind. As long as wind power is making less than half of a country’s total energy, the variability of the wind is not a problem.Vocabulary in ContextBelow are words and phrases from Passage Two.

Mark the letter on the Answer Sheet.How to Keep Chickens as PetsThere are many breeds of chickens. Some are better for laying; some are fancier 13 appearance, and some chicken breeds are 14 than others, making them suited for pets.The Orpington is a good all-round bird, suited for 15 and as pets. The Sussexand Rhode Island Chickens are also suited for all purposes. The Silkie Chickens and Cochin are 16 birds generally kept as pets or for eggs, and they make terrific parents if you do have a rooster.Chickens come in different sizes. Bantam chickens are smaller and 17 great pets in a limited space. Some chicken breeds only come in bantam size, 18 others only come in standard sizes. A few come in both.If you want eggs, you will note that some breeds lay more than others, with most hens producing 4 – 6 eggs a week.Typically, white hens lay white eggs and brown hens lay brown eggs. Some breeds even lay colourful green/blue eggs. It is actually the colour of 19 bird’s ear that determines what colour eggs it will lay; egg colour has 20 to do with nutrition.Most hens start laying eggs at 5 months of age and only lay during the spring, summer, and early fall. They molt and stop laying for the winter. A few breeds lay year 21, while others 22 a break. Chickens can be induced to lay at other times by providing artificial light but their bodies do need to rest. As they get older, they lay fewer eggs.Laying hens need a special ration 23 is high in protein and calcium. They can also be given extra calcium in the form of oyster shell or actual crushed egg shells.24 their proper diet, chickens should be given some chicken scratch (a corn mixture) every day, and can be given some kitchen leftovers such as old bananas, ends of brown bread, apples, and so forth. They should not be given onions. Offering scratch and other treats is a good way to make your birds friendly.Chicken should also be given grit to help with digestion and should always have fresh water.If eggs are not removed, some hens become broody and will sit on them to hatch out chicks, but not all hens have this habit. It takes 21 days for chicken eggs to hatch. Only fertile eggs will hatch. 25 there is no rooster, the eggs are not fertile.If you are collecting eggs for eating, you will have to check in the morning and again at noon and refrigerate any eggs you gather.[Used with permission from a Creative Commons 3.0 licence. “How to Keep Chickens as Pets” by Brenda Nelson, 6 October 2011.]13.

A2011/2012 ADMISSION EXAMINATION PAPERPart AReading (30%)Suggested time: 40 minutesEach question is worth two points.PASSAGE ONEA.When I first met Mark Zuckerberg, he seemed as much a visitor to his surroundingsas I was. It was earlier this summer, in Facebook's boardroom in Palo Alto, and it was clear Zuckerberg hadn't spent a lot of time there. He wondered aloud to his media aide why we were meeting in such a big and off-putting formal space. His comments caught me off-guard. I expected a guy who has become as rich and famous as Zuckerberg to more fully embrace it. And then I thought, "Of course he feels awkward about his surroundings. He's only 23 years old."B.It's been like that from the beginning for Zuckerberg. Ever since he startedFacebook out of his Harvard dormitory room four years ago, he has been scrambling to keep up with epic growth in his and the company's fame and fortune.The last year has been particularly remarkable. Users have quadrupled while employees and revenues have tripled. Zuckerberg was mocked briefly in 2006 for turning down a near $1-billion buyout from Yahoo. Now, there is talk that Google and Microsoft both want to buy a chunk of or all of Facebook for a valuation exceeding $10 billion. Meanwhile, in bars and at cocktail parties, Silicon Valley people ask "Do you think he's more like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates?"C.Another round of Silicon Valley hype, you say? Perhaps. It does defy a certain logicthat a 23-year-old might be worth – based on his 30% stake in Facebook – $3 billion. But the facts are these: Facebook is the hottest social networking company on the planet right now. And two very smart companies – Google and Microsoft – along with most of Silicon Valley believe that Facebook, or its kind of technology, is going to completely change the way you use the Internet in five years. Is that worth $5 billion? $10 billion? $15 billion? I don't know, but I know it's worth a lot.D.When I first met Zuckerberg, I hadn't figured that out. Sure, MySpace – owned byRupert Murdoch's News Corp. – had more than 100 million users, and Facebook had 40 million. But these were all teenagers sharing party pictures online, right? At their best, the two websites seemed like a more technologically advanced version of Internet chat rooms. At worst, they were a hangout for scammers and sexualE.It all sounds way too complicated for ordinary people to understand until you hearZuckerberg explain it. Boiled down, it goes like this: Humans get their informationfrom two places – from mainstream media or some other centralized organization such as a church, and from their network of family, friends, neighbours and colleagues. We've already digitized the first. Almost every news organization has a website now. What Zuckerberg is trying to do with Facebook is digitize the second.F.Think about what this means. Right now, the interactions among friends,neighbours and colleagues – a.k.a. word of mouth – is still analogue. You go to a cocktail party, and a friend tells you about this incredible restaurant he's found. You ask a few other friends to confirm that data and eventually two things happen: You go to the restaurant regularly, and the place becomes a favourite in town. Now imagine that information automatically pushed out to all your friends, tested, verified and returned to you in 24 hours, and you have Zuckerberg's vision for Facebook.[Source: Adapted from Fred Vogelstein, “The Facebook Revolution,” Los Angeles Times, 7 October 2007.]Vocabulary in ContextBelow are words and phrases from reading Passage One.

Lethargic? In dire need of 40 winks? Join the club. But how to boost ourenergy levels without putting in too much effort? I finally accepted the urgent need to sort out my energy levels when the clocks went back last year. The days were suddenly short, drab, dark. I snored through the alarm every morning, then kick-started myself with strong coffee. By midday, I'd be working out ways to fit ina sneaky nap. In the evening, I'd drink wine to wind down, before sliding into bedwith a laptop, promising myself sleep by midnight at the latest, then Skyping friends, ordering groceries and reading tomorrow's papers until past 2am. It didn't seem stupid at the time. Of course it didn't – my mind was in a permanent tired yet over-stimulated fog. And anyway, everyone I knew was the same.B.I came to my first conclusion early. The main reason we're all so incrediblyexhausted is – sorry to blind you with science – we're not getting enough sleep.Obvious, perhaps, but also not so obvious. We all seem fully aware that we need, for example, eight hours, but always get five, yet we do nothing constructive about it. I think the reason for that is that getting good sleep requires sacrifice and strong willpower.。

Mark the letter on the Answer Sheet. Please note that these questions below are worth 1 point each.Passage 1: Do Video Games Really Cause Bad Behaviour in Children?1Video games are the lifelines to kids whoare looking for things that they call “cool and fun,” but there are many studies that prove video games are one of the causes why kids (1) are misbehaved in school and the big reason why they are getting failing grades.Lengthy hours in front of gaming could make it (2) hardly for kids to focus on school activities. “What we don’t know at this point is why TV and video games in fact would cause attention problems,” said Douglas A. Gentile, who worked on the research.Researchers, who run the Media Research Lab at Iowa State University (3) in Ames, explained that excessive screen time had also been associated with (4) increases aggression and, perhaps less surprisingly, expanding waistlines. 1.

NO CHANGE4. A. increase aggressionB. increased aggressionC. increasingly aggressionD. NO CHANGEThe researchers followed a group of more than 1,300 school-age children, who, joined by their parents, logged their TV and gaming hours for over a year. The researchers then asked teachers to answer questions about how the children behaved in school—whether they had difficulty (5) staying within task, for instance, or often interrupted others. 5. A. staying in taskB. staying on taskC. staying upon taskD. NO CHANGEThe findings concluded that those who watched a lot of TV or played a lot of video games had slightly more problems (6) concentrate on schoolwork. Distinctively, those children who spent more than 2 hours every day sitting in front of the TV or playing video games—the limit recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics—increased their odds of exceeding (7) any average level of attention problems by 67%. 6. A. concentratedB. concentratesC. concentratingD. NO CHANGE7. A. an average levelB. the average levelC. some average levelD. NO CHANGEA well-known doctor has said that not all games are created equal. In fact, not all games of the same type offer the same kind of experience. The classic case is people who watch TV news and see a lot of violence and crime (8) tend to predict more crime for their neighborhood, even if they live (9) in a low-crimes area. And that is an effect seen in the games. People who played violent games were much more likely than the comparison group to think the world was a more dangerous place in terms of (10) being attacked with weapons. 8. A. tendsB. are tendedC. is tendedD. NO CHANGE9. A. in a low-crime-areaB. in a low-crimes-areaC. in a low-crime areaD. NO CHANGE10.A. to be attacked withweaponsB. to attack with weaponsC. attacking with weaponsD. NO CHANGEResearchers suggest that a child should not be allowed more than 2 hours of TV or video games a day. Parents should guide their kids and control their leisure time on the screen. It is not a (11) help gesture to ban kids from playing games completely, and doing so could worsen the kid’s behaviour. Parents should instead balance their children’s screen time and study time, and guide them on the video games and TV shows that they are watching. Kids are very curious about many things they have seen and heard, and (12) the more curious they are the more they ask questions. The asking of questions can be considered a kind of learning, so a little guidance by parents will probably make them good and responsible kids. 11.A. helpfullyB. helpingC. helpedD.

NO CHANGEPassage 2: Birthday Party Traditions around the World2No matter where you live, you have probably celebrated your birthday in one way (13) or another. Birthday parties mark another year (14) going; this can be exciting especially as we get old enough to drive, or frightening as we get older and want to celebrate 29 again and again.Birthdays are celebrated in many ways around the world. In countries such as Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico and Uruguay, they celebrate (15) a girls’ 15th birthday with the Waltz. At this age she is considered of suitable age and dances the waltz first with her father and grandfather, then (16) with possibly suitors. When a girl turns 15 in Ecuador, there is a great celebration, and the girl wears a pink dress. The father puts the first pair of high heels on the birthday girl and dances the waltz with her while 14 girls and 14 boys also dance. In the United States, when a girl turns 16 she has a great celebration known as “a sweet sixteen.” Family and friends are invited, and it is an elaborate celebration of (17) her turning into a young woman.Many countries include special food into the celebration. In China and the Philippines, they serve (18) noodles which are a sign of good fortune. (19) When in Russia the birthday child is presented with a pie that has a special greeting carved into it, Ghana and Guyana include traditional dishes into the celebration.Some celebrations include marking the child or the house, as they do in Nepal with a mark on the forehead or in Canada (20) whom they ambush the child and grease his/her nose. In Lithuania, garlands are hung around the entire door. In Denmark, flags are flown from all the windows to show that someone in the house is having a birthday.No matter how you celebrate your birthday, it is a special day in your life, an ancient tradition that still holds today with candles, gift giving and well wishing, and a celebration of life. 13.A. and anotherB. or the otherC. and the otherD.

Then answer the questions that follow.Passage One3A.The Internet has brought information to those who have access to it. Through thedissemination of information via the Internet, we have learned about the history of the establishment of dictatorships around the world as well as the roles that many Western governments played in their establishment. Today, this freedom to exchange information through the Internet is being threatened by the actions of some governments.B.Reporters Without Borders (Reporters Sans Frontières) has compiled a “PressFreedom Index,” which provides information about the level of press freedom in any given country. This information is compiled through a survey completed by various professionals working in journalism. Questions in the survey include asking reporters whether efforts were made to prevent them from obtaining information. These efforts can include but are not limited to physical and economic pressures placed on the journalists. According to this index, the same two countries, North Korea and Turkmenistan, have held the top two spots for countries with the least amount of press freedom in Asia in both 2009 and 2012 (see Tables 1 and 2).Table 14. Table 25.Press Freedom Rankings in Asia (Least to Most), 2009 Press Freedom Rankings in Asia (Least to Most), 2012Rank Country WorldRank Change*Rank Country WorldRankChange*1 North Korea2 ↑ 1 North Korea 2 ↑2 Turkmenistan3 ↑ 2 Turkmenistan 3 ↑3 Iran4 ↑ 3 Syria 4 ↑4 Myanmar5 ↑ 4 Iran 5 ═5 Laos 7 ↑ 5 MainlandChina6 ↑6 MainlandChina8 ↑ 6 Bahrain 7 ↑↑7 Yemen 9 ↑↑7 Vietnam 8 ↑8 Vietnam 10 ↑8 Yemen 9 ↑9 Syria 11 ↑9 Myanmar 11 ↑10 Saudi Arabia 13 ↑10 Laos 15 ↑*Reflects movement from the previous year. *Reflects movement from the previous year.3 Adapted from /global_issues/press_freedom.html and/feature/asia/least_free_national_press.html4Data from Reporters Without Borders (/press-freedom-index-2009,1001.html)C.Although it may appear that the countries listed in the top ten are all developingcountries with a recent or current history of dictatorship, the amount of press freedom enjoyed in Western nations has also decreased. Increasingly, ownershipof mainstream media in developed countries rests in the hands of very rich individuals. A case in point is media mogul Rupert Murdoch, whose company owns Fox (operating in North and South America), Sky (operating in Europe), and Star (operating in Asia). Murdoch also owns a number of print media and publishers. Thus, it can be argued that the mainstream media today tends to exhibit clear biases towards a certain viewpoint.D.Citing breaches to its national security, the United States is making a concertedeffort to clamp down on the freedom to exchange information through the Internet by actively taking steps to prosecute WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, whose controversial website collects and posts highly classified documents and videos. Washington wants to press charges against WikiLeaks for revealing confidential U.S. diplomatic cables and has also threatened to prosecute businesses and others who have relationships with WikiLeaks. Under pressure from the United States, governments all over the world—with the exception of Ecuador, which is currently sheltering Assange in its London Embassy—are calling for his arrest after the release of thousands of classified documents.E.Meanwhile, Assange argues that websites such as WikiLeaks are needed in theworld to fight back against dictatorships, challenge media monopolies, and reveal violations against human rights. He further argues that the people have a fundamental right to know what is being done to them and how their rights are being violated. If the media is controlled by fewer and fewer people, the type of information released and the perspectives that are discussed will decrease.WikiLeaks offers people an alternative where they can get a straight answer.Assange cautions that if WikiLeaks is allowed to disappear, it may be the beginning of the end of press freedom.Vocabulary in ContextBelow are words and phrases from Passage One.

Daniel, and Crystal A. BakerA.Relatively rare just 10 years ago, most publishers of introductory-level textbooksin higher education now offer e-book alternatives to the vast majority of their titles.Although not necessarily grounded in practical application, e-books have many supporters, at least in concept. One potential advantage is the greater flexibility and accessibility of e-books over paper-based texts; others include increased visual appeal of e-books due to features such as still and moving graphics, and video clips, as well as the potential to add supportive materials such as audio collections, links to activities and websites, etc. It is important to evaluate electronic texts as learning tools before recommending or requiring their use as a substitute for print textbooks.B.Often marketed as lower cost options for students on a budget, there is scantpeer-reviewed research regarding the use and preference of electronic texts as educational tools, especially in higher education. Factors such as gender, comfort with computers, familiarity, and appropriate design have yet to be fully investigated with respect to e-books. For example, gender differences in the use of, and comfort with, computers have been reported since computers emerged into the college classroom (Young, 2000). Although efforts to increase comfort with computer use and specific training seem to lessen these differences (Shashaani, 1997), such interventions are not typically employed with e-book adoption nor is there evidence to suggest that they may or may not be needed. The possibility that e-texts could have differential effects on learning based on gender or other variables is an important consideration in the adoption of a text option for every student.6 From/S0360131510001120/1-s2.0-S0360131510001120-main.pdf?_tid=b9768ff4-1d9f-11e2-82a6-00000aab0f6bC.As Schumacher and Waller (1985) so eloquently argued in the context of readingresearch in general, we risk losing important information by not focusing upon the process variables associated with the reader’s use and interaction with the text. For example, user variables associated with the manner in which students interact withe-books as well as their comfort and familiarity with the medium are important considerations. The design of the text, for example, whether electronic or print, can influence its effectiveness, as well as student motivation to interact with it.The placement of illustrations and other textbook features, for example, has been demonstrated to impact learning (Levin & Mayer, 1993; Mayer, Steinhoff, Bower, & Mars, 1995) as well as student preference (Marek, Griggs, & Christopher, 1999).Many e-textbooks are often a pdf of the actual textbook page (or html/php equivalents) with the possible addition of hyperlinks and other features. Although e-books tend to mimic their print counterparts, students may not read e-books the same way as they do textbooks. For example, readers report skimming computer-based text more often than paper-based text (Nielson, 1997; Rho & Gedeon, 2000) and reading e-text in an “F” pattern, searching for key terms rather than reading line by line (Nielson, 2006). Thus, although differences in comprehension may not be immediately evident (Aust, Kelley, & Roby, 1993), process variables such as student effort, differences in processing, and eye strain from computer screens can lead to a level of discomfort and differential usage of this medium (Kropman, Schoch, & Teoh, 2004) that could affect students’ preferences.Vocabulary in ContextBelow are words and phrases from Passage Two.
