Passage 2 (From Unit 9)
Words are signs. They have meanings, not one but many. These meanings are related in various ways. Sometimes they shade from one into anther, sometimes one word will have two or more sets of totally unrelated meanings. Through their meanings words are related to one another ― as synonyms sharing in the same meaning even though they differ in its shading; or as antonyms through opposition or contrast of meanings. Furthermore, it is in their capacity as signs that we distinguish words as proper or common names (according as they name just one thing or many which are alike in some respect); and as concrete or abstract names (according as they point to some thing which we can sense, or refer to some aspect of things which we can understand by thought but not observe through our senses).
5.According to the passage, why do people have difficulty snapping negative loops of thinking?A
[A] Because trying to think about something new in the brain is more difficult than keeping a built path.
Passage 3(From Unit 15)
The race will intensify year by year — with far-reaching impacts on society. Who “owns” the bottom of the ocean and the marine life that covers it? As ocean mining becomes feasible and economically advantageous, we can expect the resource balance among nations to shift. The Japanese already extract 10,000,000 tons of coal each year from underwater mines; tin is already being ocean-mined by Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. Beforelong nations may go to war over patches of ocean bottom. We may also find sharp changes in the rate of industrialization of what are now resource-poor nations.
5. Don’t just chatter or repeatedly embellish your speech needlessly with social noises such as “you know,” “I mean”, and “as a matter of fact.”
