 Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become 
extinct or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the 
jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will 
become extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused 
almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material 
gain but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the 
problem of extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are 
valuable parts of the world's ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to 
ensure their survival - and the survival of our planet.
 Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, 
in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They 
then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must 
also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and 
patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international 
boycott of products made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not 
prevent animals from being hunted and killed.

19. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage as a way to protect animals from 
 extinction?
A. Introduce laws to prohibit the killing of endangered animals. B. Establish wildlife reserves.
C. Refuse to buy animal products. D. Raise money to invest in equipment and patrol.
20. Which of the following best describes the author's attitude?
A. Forgiving B. Surprised C. Vindictive B. Concerned

simple meals while you are way. They will be much happier and probably they will enjoy the 
experience. If you will be eating alone a good deal, choose good restaurants. In the end, they will be

and papers you no longer need on the trip. And make sure you have a briefcase so that you can keep

 Common Wedding Rituals in the USA
Being a country of different cultural races, there is a great variety of wedding styles in the United 
States. However, the majority of weddings nowadays still follow a number of traditions. One of the 
traditions dating back to the nineteenth century is about what a bride should wear on her wedding day. 
It is commonly believed that on her wedding day, the bride should carry with her ‛something old, 
something new, something borrowed, and something blue’. This is because each of these things has a 
special meaning for the bride on this big day.
When a bride wears ‛something old’, it reminds her of her family and the past. Thus, some brides may 
wear their mother’s wedding dress or a piece of her jewellery.
‛Something new’ that the bride wears means good luck and hope for a happy future with her husband. 
This new item is usually a pair of new shoes, or it can be the wedding dress or something else.
When the bride wears ‛something borrowed’, it symbolizes the help and support she gets from her 
friends and her family whenever she needs it. An example of ‛something borrowed’ can be a married 
friend’s bridal veil or a friend’s handkerchief.
‛Something blue’ means trust and faith between the bride and the groom. Nowadays, some brides are 
creative with this item. For example, they may have their fingernails painted blue. Nevertheless, the 
most popular blue item is the garter that the bride wears on her leg.
Things are changing fast these days; however, the rituals about what the bride should wear on her 
wedding day remain kept strictly by a lot of women in the USA.
1. When did the tradition about what the bride should wear on her wedding day start?
 A. From the 8th century B. From the 9th century
 C. From the 18th century D. From the 19th century
2. What might the bride wear to remind her of her family and the past?
 A. Her mother’s wedding dress B. A pair of new shoes
 C. A friend’s handkerchief D. A blue garter
3. Which item symbolizes good luck and hope for a happy future?
 A. Something old B. Something new C. Something borrowed D. Something blue
4. When the bride wears something borrowed, what does it symbolize?
 A. Her past memories B. Her wish for a better future
 C. Support from her family and friends
 D. The trust and faith between the bride and the groom
5. Why do some brides have their fingernails painted blue?
 A. To show the importance of something blue they wear
 B. Because so many brides paint their fingernails a blue colour
 C. To show how creative some brides are
 D. To explain why some brides don’t wear blue garters

PART B: READING 
Read the following passage and answer the questions. INTERNATIONAL GIFT-GIVING CUSTOMS
The tradition of gift giving is a worldwide practice that is said to have been around since the beginning 
of human beings. Over time, different cultures have developed their own gift giving customs and 
traditions.
In France, the gift of wine for the hostess of a dinner party is not an appropriate gift as the hostess 
would prefer to choose the vintage for the night. In Sweden, a bottle of wine or flowers are an 
appropriate gift for the hostess. In Viet Nam, a gift of whisky is appropriate for the host, and some 
fruit or small gifts for the hostess, children or elders of the home. Besides, gifts should never be 
wrapped in black paper because this color is unlucky and associated with funerals in this country. 
Gifts that symbolize cutting such as scissors, knives and other sharp objects should be avoided 
because they mean the cutting of the relationship. Also, in some countries you should not open the gift 
in front of the giver and in others it would be an insult if you did not open the gift.
Beyond the gift itself, give careful consideration to the manner in which it is presented. Different 
cultures have different customs regarding how a gift should be offered - using only your right hand or 
using both hands, for example. Others have strong traditions related to the appropriate way to accept a 
gift. In Singapore, for instance, it is the standard to graciously refuse a gift several times before finally 
accepting it. The recipient would never unwrap a gift in front of the giver for fear of appearing greedy.
Understanding these traditions and customs, as well as taking time to choose an appropriate gift, will 
help you to avoid any awkwardness or embarrassment as you seek to build a better cross-cultural 
relationship.
Questions:
1. When did the tradition of gift-giving become popular all over the world?
2. Which gifts should you bring when you are invited to a dinner party in Sweden?
3. Why don’t they give scissors, knives and other sharp objects to the hostess? 
4. Are gift-giving customs the same in different cultures?
5. What is the way to accept a gift in Singapore?
