A Dutch study found that Occupational Therapy (OT) - training to do simple things around the house - improved the lives of people with dementia such as Alzheimer's disease, as well as the people who care for them. In the study, researchers at the University Medical Centre Nijmegen divided 135 seniors diagnosed with mild to moderate dementia into two groups. One group received OT, while the other did not. The scientists discovered that 75 percent of the patients who had the OT training showed improvement in motor skills, and 82 percent needed less assistance in day-to-day tasks. Similar improvement was seen in only 10 percent of those who did not get the training. In addition, nearly half the caretakers who received the OT felt more competent to do their duties.

The long-expected decline in the dollar is now well under way. For years economists have predicted that America's huge current-account deficit would eventually cause its currency to plunge. So far the dollar's slide has been fairly gradual: it is down by 13% in trade-weighted terms over the past year, though it has dropped by almost twice as much against the euro since its 2001 peak. As the decline seemed to pick up speed this week, John Snow, George Bush's Treasury Secretary, declared that he favours a 'strong dollar policy'. That was surely the wrong answer, even leaving aside the debatable issue of whether cabinet secretaries can influence the level of exchange tales. A weaker, not a stronger dollar, is what the world needs now - so long as policymakers elsewhere respond appropriately. America promoted a strong dollar throughout the 1990s, when inflation was still thought to be the main enemy. Today it makes less sense. Even after its recent slide, the dollar seems overvalued. Moreover, with ample space capacity in America, deflation looks a bigger risk than inflation.
As we understand from the passage, the decline in the value of the American dollar has —.
A) had an adverse effect upon the value of the euro
B) bolstered American trade
C) been foreseen by economists over a long period of time
D) been a major headache for policy makers
E) followed an unpredictable pattern

By 1993, the world’s human population had reached 5.5 thousand million and, although the growth has slowed down in recent years, it will be many decades before it stops. The reason why this growth is causing so much concern is that we cannot keep up with the corresponding increase in demand for food, water, healthcare, jobs, education and housing. It also increases the likelihood of damage to the environment. Much of the growth has been in the poorer countries of the world, but overpopulation is also a problem for some rich countries, including Britain. With a population of approximately 58 million, Britain has 233 inhabitants per square kilometre. Furthermore, it is estimated that the number of people in the country will have increased to 62 million by 2031, at which time it will start to decline again. Populations not only increase because of higher birth rates, but also because of people moving from poor to rich countries, and from the countryside to the towns. In fact the latter cause is greater than general population growth and is creating many problems in the towns and cities, especially in poorer parts of the world.
58 . In the opinion of the author of the passage ____.
A) increase of world population is acceptable
B) goverments can supply the basic needs of people

Superstitions grow out of man's attempts to explain the unknown. When man disproves the old belief, and some still cling to the belief, it becomes a superstition. In Western Europe, prior to 600 B.C., man considered rabbits to be sacred, because of their belief that spirits inhabited the bodies of animals, and also because of their belief that man directly descended from some of these animals. Later, the ancient European Celts adopted portions of the older belief, that rabbits were sacred, and that spirits inhabited their bodies. The Celts, based upon the fact that these animals spent an inordinate amount of time in their underground burrows, held the belief that the rabbits' bodies were inhabited by underground spirits with whom they communicated. Another reason the Celts held the rabbit to be sacred, was because of their prowess in the field of reproduction. Since the rabbit itself was considered to be lucky, it follows that any of its body parts would also be considered lucky. People selected the rabbit's foot for good luck.

communism in
East and
the most prosperous of the Soviet satellite countries,
stagnation and environmental degradation. Waves of
East Germans registered their discontent with
worsening conditions by massive illegal emigration to
the West. This exodus together with evidence of
widespread official corruption led to the resignation of
Honecker. His successor, Egon Krenz, promised
reforms, but he was nevertheless faced with

the Cold War, the Iron Curtain, and the division of
East from West, was demolished by groups of
ordinary citizens. Jubilant crowds from both sides
walked through the gaping holes that now permitted
men, women, and children to take the few steps that

national unity.
