In 1764, there was a serious quarrel over taxation between the British government and its colonies in
America. The British government continued to think
of the colonists as British subjects. In 1700, there had
been only 200.000 colonists, but by 1770 this number
rose to 2.5 million. Obviously, such large numbers
needed to be dealt with carefully. Some American
colonists decided that it was not lawful for the British
government to tax them without their agreement.
Political opinion in Britain was divided. Some felt that
the tax was fair because the money would be used to
pay for the defence of the American colonies against
French attack. But several important politicians
agreed with the colonists that there should be “no
taxation without representation”. Hence, in 1773, at
the port of Boston, a group of colonists threw a
shipload of tea into the sea rather than pay tax on it.
The event became known as “the Boston Tea Party”.
The British government responded by closing the
port. But the colonists then decided to prevent British
goods from entering America until the port was
opened again. The colonists’ action was regarded as
a rebellion, and the British government decided to
defeat it by force. Thus, the American War of
Independence got underway. The war lasted from
1775 until 1783. The British government had no
respect for the colonists’ fighting ability. The result
was a disastrous defeat for the British forces. At the
end of the war, Britain lost all the American colonies
except Canada.
One understands from the passage that, because of the tax crisis, ----.
A) the American colonists imposed sanctions on
British goods
B) the port of Boston was closed for over half a
century
C) Britain took urgent precautions in order to
increase its military capacity in America
D) the import of tea into the American colonies
came under the British monopoly
E) France expressed its willingness to aid the
American colonies against Britain

Flightless birds evolved from flying ancestors; there are about forty species in existence today. The best-known flightless birds are the ostrich, emu, cassowary, rhea and penguins. Most flightless birds evolved in the absence of predators, on islands, and lost the power of flight because they had few enemies. A notable exception, the ostrich, which lives in the African savannas, has claws on its feet to use as a weapon against predators. Two key differences between flying and flightless birds are the smaller wing bones of flightless birds and the absent (or greatly reduced) keel on their breastbone. The keel anchors muscles needed for wing movement. Flightless birds also have more feathers than flying birds.
We can learn from the passage that ...............
A) flying birds evolved from the flightless birds
B) there are forty types of flying birds
C) flying birds are threats for the flightless birds
D) flightless birds used to have the ability of flying before they began to evolve
E) the evolution of the flightless birds began with the increase in the number of the predators

Mine-clearing efforts made more progress last year than ever before. But there is concern about future progress because international support decreased for the first time. The European Commission, the United States and eight other major donors decreased their financing of 'mine action,' which is defined as clearing mines and destroying supplies of them. It also includes mine risk education and survivor assistance. Seven hundred forty square kilometers, an area about the size of New York City, was cleared of mines last year. It is the most land cleared in one year since modern de-mining efforts started in nineteen eighty. Yet the number of reported casualties from landmine explosions was eleven percent higher than in the previous year. Landmines killed at least two thousand people and wounded more than five thousand others last year. About eighty percent of the victims were civilians. What is more, numbers of reported casualties are often less than half of the real number. More than one hundred fifty governments have joined the Mine Ban Treaty, banning the use, production and trade of landmines. Twenty-nine still have to finish mine-clearing within the next few years. But thirteen might not meet that goal.
We learn from the passage that the concern about mine-clearing ----.
A) has decreased due to increasing
international interest
B) has proved to be baseless
C) has resulted from diminishing support
D) has vanished thanks to the Mine Ban
Treaty

Everybody has been talking about detox recently. What is this detox? Even though for some people detox is a kind of spring cleaning they do at home to their bodies, detox is not a new recovery method or a program that people can employ during the weekend and go back to their normal life again. It is a process that our cells are especially used to and helps our bodies rejuvenate themselves. Just as antibiotics kill bacteria in the body, detox is a system that enables the cells to get the best nourishment and helps in the elimination of toxins from the body. The liver, which is responsible for the removal of the body’s toxins, turns toxins into harmless substances that can be discharged from the body as feces, urine, perspiration, breath, tears and other bodily fluids. These excretion channels should work properly for an effective toxin discharge. If toxins cannot be discharged from the body, they overload the lymph system and can destroy the immune system’s balance.

A) most of the people should go to springs to detox themselves
