Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.- It is said that most people have no more than 5 friends at any given time, and 400 over the whole of their lives.  However, on social  networking sites, most users have about 150 friends. If these numbers are correct, then friendship means different things in different  situations.- One of the reasons for having more online friends than real friends at a certain  point  in time  is that online friendships  do not require much time and energy: it is easy to accept friendships  and keep them forever. Another possibility is that it is difficult  to say 'no' when somebody asks us to be their friend online,  even if we feel we don't really know them. The fact that they ask us suggests that they do consider us a friend, which is a nice feeling.  Alternatively, they may be 'collectors' of online friends and just want to use us to get a higher  number of friends and appear to be popular.- Online friendships are quite  easy, but in the real world decisions about friendships are harder to make. There are no rules about friendship. There are no guidelines  about how to make friends,  how to keep friendships going, and how to finish friendships  if we want to move on.  People have very different opinions about this:  some people would die for their friends and they value them more than family. Others say that friends are temporary, only there to help each other until they are no longer needed.  If people with such different  views  become friends,  this can lead to problems.- Because of these different definitions  of friendship,   it is easy to be unhappy about our friendships. We may want them to be deeper or closer, or we may want to have more friends  in our lives. Sometimes we simply do not have the time to develop our friendships,  or we fear we have left  it too late in  life to start. If we move to another country or city, we have to find ways to make new friends again.- This dissatisfaction shows us how important friendships are for most of us. We should not think that it could be too late to build friendships. We also need to understand that the need to be around other people is one that is shared by many. Therefore, we should not be too frightened about starting to talk to people who in the future may become our friends: it is likely that they too would like to get closer to us.  Remember what people say: strangers are friends we have not met yet.How many friends do the majority of people probably have?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.- Last weekend, six students from the Donoho School went on a fascinating trip back in time. These students accompanied Jacksonville State University professor William Bannister on a fossil hunt. The students, professor, and three graduate assistants headed to a valley near Cheaha Mountain. The valley was not previously known to have any fossils in it. However, two months ago, some campers in the valley stumbled upon some bones sticking out from the ground. When they brought them to the museum, they were told that the bones were those of a brontosaurus, a species of dinosaur.- Thanks to a generous grant from the Damke Foundation, the students were able to accompany the professor on his dig. They spent most of both Saturday and Sunday carefully digging in the area. - "We found a few bones," said Wendy Jacobs, a Donoho senior. "We're not sure which animal they're from, but the professor assured us they were from a dinosaur." - The students, all of whom intend to major in science at college, are looking forward to returning this coming weekend. "There's enough money in the grant for the next month, so we should get to return at least three more times." said Donoho student Philip Peters.What would be the most appropriate headline for this article?

When I asked her, she said that you wanted to bake a cake.I am not an expert in baking but I have baked quite a few cakes before. Let me share some useful tips with you.If your butter is taken directly from the refrigerator, it will be cold and hard. Try to slice it thinly or grate it and put it over some warm water for about ten minutes. This will make it easier to mix it with the other ingredients.Most importantly, make sure that you set the correct temperature for the oven. Besides turning on the oven before putting in the mixture, remember to check that the oven rack is placed in the centre. This helps to bake the cake evenly. What type of baking tray are you using? If you are using a glass tray, do adjust the oven temperature by about 5°C.I hope you have fun baking your cake.Love,Mary(Adapted from Comprehension Fast Forward 4-J. Lee& G. Y.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions When we go and watch a movie in the cinema, we see real people moving and talking on a big screen in front of US. But how are movies filmed and shown to US? In actual fact, movies do not really 'move' like we think they do. It is our eyes that play tricks on US and make the movies look as if they are moving.A movie is filmed using a camera which takes pictures at a very fast speed. The camera can take 4 pictures in one second! If it is taking pictures of somebody walking, the pictures will show the different movements of the person in that one second. Since the pictures are taken so quickly, the difference between each picture is very slight.The pictures are developed into long strips of film which are then shown, using a film projector. As we watch, 4 pictures flash before our eyes every second. The pictures go by so fast that we cannot see each one by itself. What we see is just one picture that seems to move. Our eyes play a part by blending the pictures with each other.The same method applies to cartoons. In a cartoon, instead of taking pictures of real people, the camera takes pictures of drawings. Many drawings have to be made just to show a simple action. Each drawing is again made only slightly different from the others. The drawings are then photographed orderly. When everything is complete and the cartoon is shown, it also looks as though the characters are really moving.(www. englishdaily61.com/comprehension...)How is the difference between each of the 4 pictures?

When everything is complete and the cartoon is shown, it also looks as though the characters are really moving.(www. englishdaily61.com/comprehension...)To film a cartoon, ____________ have to be photographed.
