Passage 1
Culture is by no means a separate part of society or politics. Elizabethan era is generally known as
one of the most glorious periods in English history not simply because of its political and military
strength, but also because of its vigorous cultural power. For those of us in the twenty-first century,
the success of William Shakespeare's plays is as well known as Queen Elizabeth's defeat of the
Spanish Armada. By permitting the establishment of permanent public playhouses, Elizabethan era
created the cultural conditions that nurtured theatrical creativities. "Literature is part of history," Jean
E. Howard writes, just as "the literary text [is] as much a context for other aspects of cultural and
material life as they are for it." Shakespeare's works, which constitute a part of the Elizabethan history,
worked hand in hand with other aspects of material life at that time to shape our conceptualization
of the Elizabethan era. Thus seen, a seemingly minor cultural policy that permits the building of
playhouses had enormous effects on subsequent ages' impression of the era. Cultural policies are
undeniably integral parts of society and politics, and they might have a lasting effect on history.
36. What is the main idea of this paragraph?
(A) Culture separates society and politics.
(B) Elizabethan era was militarily strong.
(C) Queen Elizabeth's defeat of the Spanish Armada.
(D) Culture has colossal influence.
37. What is the meaning of "era"?
(A) A long and distinct period of history.
(B) A beautiful piece of memory.
(C) A mistake in Elizabeth's court.
(D) A statue.
38. According to the passage, what happened between Queen Elizabeth and the Spanish?
(A) Queen Elizabeth won a victory over Spanish warships.
(B) Spain triumphed over Queen Elizabeth.
(C) Queen Elizabeth conquered Spain.
(D) Queen Elizabeth beat Spanish infantry.
39. Which of the following is closest to the meaning of "conceptualization"?
(A) The action of giving orders authoritatively.
(B) The action or process of forming an idea of something.
(C) The action or process of examining something.
(D) The action or process of remembering something.

Passage 2
During the past 10 years, there have been many studies showing a positive association
between religion and health. In general, many of the effects of religion on health are thought to be
attributable to better health behavior habits and social support, although many studies have found
independent effects of religiousness. Another possibility is that religiousness and religious coping
are related to positive outcomes through their enhancement of self-regulation. Religions posit
desirable and undesirable characteristics and encourage their adherents to develop the former and
suppress the latter. Take, for example, the seven deadly sins in Christianity: pride, envy, gluttony,
lust, sloth, anger, and greed. We know that gluttony, anger, and sloth lead to poor physiological
regulation and poorer health. But greed for material gain, envy at the possessions or abilities of
others, and overweening pride may also result in poorer emotional regulation.
At their best, religions also provide ways of developing self-regulation. For example,
Christians are enjoined to practice certain virtues to help combat the "deadly sins"—patience is the
antidote to anger, liberality to greed, diligence to sloth, kindness to envy, abstinence to lust, and
humility to pride. All of the world's major religions—Buddhism, Islam, Judaism, Vedanta, and
Taoism—at their best promote temperance, self-control, patience, and compassion. The relationship
between religion and health may become a fascinating topic for discussion.
41. According to the passage, which of the following statement about religion is TRUE?
(A) The connection between religion and health remains negative.
(B) Non-religious people tend to be healthier than religious people.
(C) Religion can promote self-regulation.
(D) Intolerance, injustice, and hatred are virtues that should be promoted and cultivated.
42. Better health behavior habits and social support could _____.
(A)facilitate interpersonal communication (B) contribute to good health
(C) make one stay away from compassion (D)develop virtues
43. The word "adherents" in the passage is closest in meaning to "_____".
(A) promoters (B) examiners (C) founders (D) followers

45. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?

(D) Religions may promote specific beliefs that facilitate self-regulation.
Passage 3
It would be hard to find a work of science fiction with a greater real-world impact than Star
Trek. The futuristic television show, created by Gene Roddenberry, debuted in the USA in 1966.
While creating exciting stories about "strange new worlds and new civilizations," Roddenberry used
the space drama to comment on social and ethical issues.
The crew of the starship Enterprise was racially diverse, a landmark achievement in the
1960s. Working together, they used reason, compassion, and determination to solve problems while
exploring the unknown. Of course, as the show took place hundreds of years in the future, the crew
possessed an endless supply of fantastic weapons and devices. Many of these creations went on to
influence real-world medical, military, communication, and other inventions.
The original series aired for just three seasons, but fan interest steadily grew, leading to the
release of a cartoon series in the 1970s. That was followed by a number of live action movies. Then,
in 1987, a brand new television series set in the Star Trek universe debuted. Even after Gene
Roddenberry's death in 1991, more TV series and movies were made. Eventually, the franchise was
"rebooted" with the 2009 blockbuster film simply entitled Star Trek.
Over the decades, the franchise has stayed true to Roddenberry's vision. Star Trek continues
to address important issues such as medical ethics, disease, and war. So, despite taking place in the
distant future, each Star Trek movie as well as TV show has something to say about the world we
live in now.
46. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
(A) To celebrate the achievement of new civilizations.
(B) To trace back to the development of science fiction.
(C) To demonstrate the impact of Star Trek on the world.
(D) To criticize some historical events of Star Trek series.
