Exercise
9. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct word or phrase
that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
Humanitarian
Dorothea Dix was born in Hampden, Maine, in 1802. At the age of 19, she
established a school for girls, the Dix Mansion School, in Boston, but had to
close it in 1835 due to her poor health. She wrote and published the first of many books for
children in 1824. In 1841, Dix accepted an invitation to teach classes at a
prison in East Cambridge, Massachusetts. She was deeply disturbed by the sight
of mentally-ill persons thrown in the jail and treated like criminals. For the
next eighteen months, she toured Massachusetts institutions where other mental
patients were confined and reported
the shocking conditions she found to the state legislature. When improvements
followed in Massachusetts, she turned her attention to the neighbouring states
and then to the West and South.
Dix's
work was interrupted by the Civil War; she served as superintendent of women
hospital nurses for the federal government.
Dix
saw special hospitals for the mentally-ill built in some fifteen states.
Although her plan to obtain public land for her cause failed, she aroused
concern for the problem of mental illnesses all over the United States as well
as in Canada and Europe.
Dix's
success was due to her independent and thorough research, her gentle but
persistent manner, and her ability to secure the help of powerful and wealthy
supporters.
106. In what year was the
Dix Mansion School closed?
A.
1802 B.
1824 C. 1835 D.
1841
107.

A.

She was doing research for a book.
108.

A.
Canada B.
Europe C. Massachusetts D.
The West and the South

Exercise
10. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate
the correct
answer to each of the questions.
All
over the country, young people are entering a world of homelessness and
poverty, according to a recent report by the housing group, Shelter.
Nearly
150,000 young people aged between sixteen and twenty-five will become homeless
this year, says Shelter. Some of the young homeless may sleep out in the open
in such places as the "cardboard city” in London, where people of all ages
sleep in the open air in their only homes - cardboard boxes. Others may find accommodation in
shelters run by voluntary organisations or get a place in a hostel, which gives
them board up to ten weeks.
But
who are these people? Those who are seeking a roof over their heads are mostly
not runaways but “throwaways" - people who have been thrown out of their
homes or forced to leave because of parental divorce, an unsympathetic
step-parent or one of many other reasons.
Take
the case of one sixteen-year-old schoolgirl, Alice. She did not come from a
poor home and had just passed her exams with good results. The Shelter team met
her in a hostel where she was doing her physics homework. Her parents had
thrown her out of her home for no other reason that she wanted to do Science
Advanced Level Exams - which her parents refused her permission to do, saying
that studying sciences was unladylike!
Shelter
says that the government's laws do nothing to help these youngsters. Rising
rents, the shortage of cheap housing and the cut in benefits for young people under the age of twenty-five are causing
a national problem, according to Shelter. The recent changes in the benefit
laws mean that someone aged between sixteen and twenty-five gets less than
older people and they can only claim state help if they prove that they left
home for a good reason.
Shelter
believes that because of the major cuts in benefits to young people, more and
more are being forced to sleep on the streets. Shelter also points out that if
you are homeless, you can't get a job because employers will not hire someone
without a permanent address; and if
you can't get a job, you are homeless because you don't have any money to pay
for accommodation. It's an impossible situation.
111.
According to a recent report by Shelter, it appears that ____.
A.
hostels are too full to offer accommodation to homeless young people
B.
more and more young people all over the world are finding themselves homeless
C.
nearly 150,000 young people live out in the open
D. young homeless people live in places
like "cardboard city”
112.

____.
A. circumstances make it impossible for
them to live at home
B.
they do not want to live with a divorced parent
C.
they have run away from home
D.
they have thrown away any chances of living at home by behaving badly
114.
Why was Alice turned out of her home?
A. Her parents didn't agree with what
she wanted to do.
B.
She didn't want to study for her Advanced Level Exams.
C.
She had not obtained high marks in her exams.
D.
She refused to do her homework in the evening.
115.
According to the passage, “benefits"
are ____.
A.
extra wages for part-time workers B.
gifts of food and clothing
C.
laws about distributing money D. subsidies for those in need
116.
The changes in the system of benefits mean that ____.
A.
anyone under twenty-five and not living at home will receive help with food and accommodation
B.
the under twenty-fives can claim money only if they have left home
C. young people do not receive as much
money as those over twenty-five
D.
young people cannot claim money unless they are under sixteen or over twenty-five
117.
According to Shelter, once young people have been forced onto the streets, ____.
A.
their benefits will be severely cut B. they will find it difficult to find
work
C.
they will never go back home again D. they will encourage
their friends to do the same
