1(Reading in Depth) Section AQuestions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.Wise buying is a positive way in which you can make your money go further. The way you go about purchasing an article or a service can actually _47_ you money or can add to the cost. Take the _48_ example of a hairdryer. If you are buying a hairdryer, you might think that you are making the _49_ buy if you choose one whose look you like and which is also the cheapest _50_ price. But when you get it home you may find that it takes twice as long as a more expensive _51_ to dry your hair. The cost of the electricity plus the cost of your time could well make your hairdryer the most expensive one of all.So what principles should you _52_ when you go out shopping? If you keep your home, your car or any valuable _53_ in excellent condition, youll be saving money in the long run. Before you buy a new _54_ , talk to someone who owns one. If you can, use it or borrow it to check it suits your particular purpose. Before you buy an expensive _55_, or a service, do check the price and what is on offer. If possible, choose _56_ three items or three estimates.Apossession Bsave Cbest Dappliance EmaterialFfrom GsimpleHwith Iin JelementKmodel Litem Measy Nadopt OreasonableSection BPassage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.Friendship is one of the basic bonds between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft. If, however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to articulate their feelings, they are more likely to recover from their grief.“No man is an island.” In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love, admiration, respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will provide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.2As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree of intimacy of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Extroverts enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas introverts are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships.Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of intimacy is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in ones life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of intimacy, all friendships are based on reciprocity, honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.57.The second paragraph implies that_ .Ateenagers without friends will suffer from psychological problemsBa widow or a widower will die very soon without companionshipChuman beings need companionship and a sense of belongingDboth A and B58. “No man is an island”(Line 1, Para. 3) implies that _.Aeveryone is a part of an islandBman cannot be an islandCeveryone is just a part of societyDsociety is an island59.

Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a good-bye close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them.Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from homethe highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride
