IX. Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question.
WHO IS REALLY ON THE INTERNET?
One of the great things about the Internet, as well as one of its biggest problems, is that people are
basically anonymous on it In Internet chat rooms and web cafes, people can use a different name and even
create an entirely different identity if they want to.
In some ways,this is a good thing. For many people, it gives them the chance to do things that they could
never do in real life. For example, a person might be very shy in real life, but that same person may find the
courage to make friends on the Internet because it feels safer. In addition, people in some countries are not
free to express their opinions, especially if they don't like the government. By using a different identity on the
Internet, they can express their opinions without worrying about getting in trouble.
That same freedom to be "another person" on the Internet, however, causes many problems as well. The
major problem is Internet fraud. Many dishonest people use the Internet to pretend to be a different person.
Then they trick a J person into trusting them in some way and take their monev. In one case, two Japanese
men lied to Filipinos who wanted to travel to Japan. The two Japanese men told them that they could help
them get visas to Japan for a small price (about $ 400 per person). The two Japanese men took thousands of
dollars from hopeful Filipinos, but none of the people ever got their visas. The number of these kinds of
crime is quickly rising. Last year, Internet criminals stole over $ 350 million from trusting people. When you
consider that only $ 57 million was stolen in bank robberies in all of Europe, it is easy to see that Internet
crime is a serious problem.
1. The word "anonymous" in bold in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to______.
A. nameless B. dishonest C. trusting D. criminal
2. According to paragraph 2, all of the following are true of the Internet EXCEPT______
A. it allows people to safely oppose their government
B. it makes it easier for people to express themselves.
C. it gets people in trouble
D. it helps shy people make friends
3. The word "they" in bold in paragraph 2 refers to______
A. people B. countries C. opinions D. friends
4. The author mentions two Japanese men in order to ________ .
A. suggest that there is a lot of Internet crime in Japan.
B. show that getting a visa is very difficult in Japan.
C. show that you shouldn't trust anyone on the Internet
D. give an example of fraud on the Internet.
5. Why does the author mention bank robberies?
A. To show that there is more money in Internet crime than in robbing banks.
B. To suggest that Internet crime is easier than robbing banks.
C. To show that Internet crime is much more common than other types of crime.
D. To show that banks are safer than file Internet.
X. Complete the second sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first sentence, using the given

III. Read the passage and choose the best answer to the question by circling A, B, C or D.
Students are always saying to me, "English is So difficult," but is it? Well, in my opinion English is one of
the easiest languages to learn for beginners. To be able to talk simply in the past present and future is really
easy. When you get to an intermediate level of English things start to get more difficult. For upper
intermediate students English becomes quite difficult.
Let's look at nouns. In French or Spanish, all nouns have to be either male or female, so you don't just have
to learn the noun, but you have to learn its gender. In German it is worse, because there are three noun cases,
masculine, feminine and neuter, and in Swahili, an African language, there are sixteen! So, nouns are easy to
leam.
Let's look at verbs. The verb work is a regular verb as we know. There are only two forms of this verb in
the present simple, work and works. Compare this with Italian or Portuguese, where you have to learn a
different ending for each pronoun. In the past, you only have one form in English, not six, and in the simple
future, you have to use will and the verb, not another six forms, so we've got four forms to learn in English
and eighteen in, for example, Spanish.
Okay, I know if s more complicated than that, and that when you get to the present perfect or the difference
between going to and will, things aren't so straightforward, but if you just want to use your verb to say
something in the present past or future it’s easy. So make the most of this elementary stage in your English
language learning programme, because the better you get, the harder it becomes!
1. What is the writer's opinion of the present perfect tense?
A. If s the most difficult tense in English.
B. If s as easy as the other tenses.
C. It’s not as easy as the present, past or future.
D. If s more difficult in English than in other tenses.
2. What does straightforward mean in this passage?
A. Difficult B. Easy C. Regular D. Irregular
3 What is the writer's advice to students?
A. Study hard at elementary level.
B. Don't study after elementary level
C. Enjoy learning English before it gets difficult
D. Start to learn more difficult English.
4. What is this passage about?
A. How to study English.
B. The differences between English and other languages.
C. How easy English is.
D. The wrong opinion some people have of how difficult English is to learn.
5. How does the difficulty of learning English change?. .
A. As you Learn more it gets more difficult
B. As you learn more it gets easier.
C. If you study hard it doesn't change.
D. For some people it changes, for others it doesn't
