Edison once worked for the railroad. Something happened that changed the course of his career. Edison
saved the life of a station official's child, who had fallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train. For his
bravery, the boy's father taught Edison how to use the telegraph.  
     From 1862 to 1868, Edison worked as a roving telegrapher in the Midwest, the South, Canada, and
New  England.  During  this  time,  he  began  developing  a  telegraphic  repeating  instrument  that  made  it
possible to transmit messages automatically.  
     Edison moved to New York City. Within a year, he was able to open a workshop in Newark, New
Jersey. He produced the Edison Universal Stock Printer, the automatic telegraph, the quadruplex, as well
as other printing telegraphs, while working out of Newark.  
       Thomas  Alva  Edison  died  in  West  Orange,  New  Jersey  on  October  18,  1931.  At  the  time  of  this
death, he was experimenting on rubber from goldenrod. After his death, Edison became a folk hero of
legendary status. His inventions had truly and profoundly affected the shaping of modern society.

The following text is for questions 23 to 25.
 
Have you ever been stuck on the side of the road with a flat tire? Do you want to be able to change  a tire without
having to ask for help? Fortunately, changing a tire is a pretty simple task, provided you're prepared and willing to
exert a little effort.
1.  Find a flat, stable and safe place to change your tire. You should have a solid, level surface that will restrict
the car from rolling. If you are near a road, park as far from traffic as possible and turn on your emergency
flashers (hazard lights). Avoid soft ground and hills.
2.  Apply the parking brake and put car into "Park" position. If  you  have a standard transmission, put  your
vehicle in first or reverse.
3.  Place a heavy object (e.g., rock, concrete, spare wheel, etc.) in front of the front and back tires.
4.  Take  out  the  spare  tire  and  the  jack.  Place  the  jack  under  the  frame  near  the  tire  that  you  are  going  to
change. Ensure that the jack is in contact with the metal portion of your car's frame  
5.  Raise the jack until it is supporting (but not lifting) the car. The jack should be firmly in place against the
underside of the vehicle. Check to make sure that the jack is perpendicular to the ground.
6.  Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts by turning counterclockwise. Don't take them all the way off; just
break the resistance. By keeping the wheel on the ground when you first loosen the nuts, you'll make sure
that you're turning the nuts instead of the wheel.
7.  Pump or crank the jack to lift the tire off the ground. You need to lift it high enough to remove the flat tire
and replace it with a spare.
8.  Remove the nuts the rest of the way. Turn them counterclockwise until they are loose. Repeat with all lug
nuts, then remove the nuts completely.
9.  Remove the tire. Place the flat tire under the vehicle so in the event of a jack failure the vehicle will fall on
the old wheel, hopefully preventing injury. If the jack is placed on a flat, solid base, you shouldn't have any
problems.
10.  Place the spare tire on the hub. Take care to align the rim of the spare tire with the wheel bolts, then put on
the lug nuts.
11.  Tighten the nuts by hand until they are all snug
12.  Lower the car without applying full weight on the tire. Tighten the nuts as much as possible.
13. Lower the car to the ground fully and remove the jack. Finish tightening the nuts and replace the hubcap.

In 1991, Shark Bay was inscribed into the UNESCO World Heritage list in recognition of its outstanding
natural beauty, biological diversity, fascinating ecology and unique insights into the Earth's history. Here,
you  can  meet  the  Monkey  Mia  dolphins,  the  world's  largest  population  of  dugongs,  walk  among  the
largest  and  oldest  living  fossils  on  the  planet  and  discover  the  30,000  year  history  and  culture  of  its
Indigenous people.
     The only town in the Shark Bay region is Denham. It's an eight hour drive or a two hour flight from
Perth and, from here, you can join the Shark Bay World Heritage Drive, taking in all the main attractions.
If you don't have wheels, there are plenty of extended tours from Perth, or day and half-day adventures
from Denham.
     A closer look at this vast landscape will reveal an abundance of rare and unique plant and animal life,
some  of  which  are  found  nowhere else  on  Earth.  It's  home  to  over  100  known  species  of  reptiles  and
amphibians,  240  varieties  of  birds,  320  types  of  fish,  80  different  corals  and  820  species  of  plants,
including  700  flowering  species.  Protecting  many  endangered  species,  Shark  Bay's  Francois  Peron
National  Park  is  one  of  the  most  important  wilderness  areas  in  Australia.  
     Just  off-shore,  in  Shark  Bay  Marine  Park,  lies  Dirk  Hartog  Island  National Park  -  a  haven  for  rare
burrowing frogs and white fairy wrens, and a top spot for fishing, diving, snorkeling and four-wheel-drive
adventures. Today, you can arrive by barge with your 4WD, chartered flight or in your own boat.
     Further south in Shark Bay, you can walk along one of only two beaches in the world formed entirely
of tiny white shells, or visit the Hamelin Pool Stromatolites and get a glimpse of life on Earth over 3,500
million years ago.
     By far the most popular and spectacular attraction is Monkey Mia, where wild dolphins come in to
shore every day to meet and interact with people.  
     Choose from a huge variety of accommodation options in Denham, or base yourself in Monkey Mia
for an early morning dolphin encounter.

The following text is for questions 36 to 38.
 
During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, European traders started to get involved in the Slave Trade.
European  traders  had  previously  been  interested  in  African  nations  and  kingdoms,  such  as  Ghana  and
Mali, due to their sophisticated trading networks. Traders then wanted to trade in human beings.  
     They took enslaved people from western Africa to Europe and the Americas. At first this was on quite
a  small  scale  but  the  Slave  Trade  grew  during  the  seventeenth  and  eighteenth  centuries,  as  European
countries conquered many of the Caribbean islands and much of North and South America.  
     Europeans who settled  in  the Americas  were  lured  by  the  idea  of  owning  their  own  land  and  were
reluctant to work for others. Convicts from Britain were sent to work on the plantations but there were
never enough so, to satisfy the tremendous demand for labor, planters purchased slaves.
     They wanted the enslaved people to work in mines and on tobacco plantations in South America and
on  sugar  plantations  in  the  West  Indies.  Millions  of  Africans  were  enslaved  and  forced  across  the
Atlantic, to labor in plantations in the Caribbean and America.  
      Slavery changed when Europeans became involved, as it led to generation after generation of peoples
being taken from their homelands and enslaved forever. It led to people being legally defined as chattel
slaves.  
     A chattel slave is an enslaved person who is owned forever and whose children and children's children
are automatically enslaved. Chattel slaves are individuals treated as complete, property to be bought and
sold. Chattel slavery was supported and made legal by European governments and monarchs. This type of
enslavement was practiced in European colonies from the sixteenth century onwards.

 
36.  What is the topic of the text?
A.  Slavery in Europe
B.  The abolition of slavery  
C.  C. Countries in which slaves were taken  
D.  Human beings trade committed by Europeans
E.  Slaves in plantations in the Caribbean and America

A.  Chattel slavery occurred  in Europe

Singapore had the highest global average peak internet connection speed in the third quarter of this year,
and ranked third in the world in average internet connection speed, according to a new report.
     South Korea and Hong Kong took the top spots in average connection speed at 26.3 megabytes per
second (Mbps) and 20.1 Mbps respectively, according to the Akamai State of the internet report for Q3,
released by Massachusetts-based content delivery network services provider Akamai.
     Singapore came in third at 18.2 Mbps, but led the pack in average peak connection speed at 162 Mbps,
with Hong Kong and South Korea trailing behind at 116.2 Mbps and 114.2 Mbps respectively.
    This is the fifth consecutive quarter for which Singapore has snagged the top spot.
    To  explain  the  difference  between  average  connection  speed  and  average  peak  connection  speed,
executive  director  of  Deloitte  Consulting  in  South-east  Asia  Jan  Wupperman  used  an  analogy  of  a
highway, The Straits Times reported in July.
    "When the highway is empty,  your car can go at its maximum speed, or peak speed," he said. "But
when  there  are  many  cars  on  the  highway  -  such  as  when  everyone  is  using  the  same  bandwidth  for
streaming, surfing and downloading during peak hours - you end up with traffic jams, or a lower average
speed."
    Connectivity has grown globally, with the average connection speed growing 2.3 per cent quarter-on-
quarter and increasing 21 per cent to 6.3 Mbps year-on-year, according to Akamai's report.
    The global average peak connection speed increased 3.4 per cent quarter-on-quarter and 16 per cent
year-on-year to 37.2 Mbps.
     In the Asia-Pacific region, India had the lowest average connection speed at 4.1 Mbps, and the lowest
average peak connection speed at 27.0 Mbps.

A.  Internet connection speed in Asia.
B.  Internet use in different countries.
C.  Internet connection speed in Asean countries.
D.  Internet connection speed in American region.
E.  Internet connection speed in different countries.

Ability to speak in public is an asset and it comes with several benefits. It can not only boost some aspects
of your personal life, but your professional life as well.
     Public speaking can contribute to the growth of knowledge. It helps you share whatever valuable ideas
and thoughts you might have, with a larger group of people. In return, you also learn a lot when those
people challenge your ideas and question your opinions. It allows you to develop a clearer picture of the
subject.
      Public  speaking  helps  you  develop  the  ability  to  persuade.  When  you  speak  confidently  and
convincingly  to  a  large  group  of  people,  persuading  an  individual  to  carry  out  a  task  becomes  much
easier.
     Besides persuasion attempt and knowledge growth, public speaking can  improve your critical thinking
abilities. When you sit and prepare a speech for a seminar or a workshop, you automatically tend to focus
on the quality of your work. You will be forced to do a lot of research in order to get the content right. It
will help you develop better ways to deliver your content and design it with relevance.
     Your  personal  life  also  gains  a  lot  from  public  speaking.  The  confidence  you  develop  from  public
speaking can support you with building more personal relationships. It becomes much easier to socialize
and make new friends.
      So,  public  speaking  skills  enhance  your  professional  and  personal  lives.  These  will  boost  your
personal quality in connecting with people.

A developed country, industrialized country, or "more economically  developed country" (MEDC), is a
sovereign state that has a highly developed economy and advanced technological infrastructure relative to
other  less  industrialized  nations.  Most  commonly,  the  criteria  for  evaluating  the  degree  of  economic
development  are  gross  domestic  product  (GDP),  gross  national  product  (GNP),  the  per  capita  income,
level  of  industrialization,  amount  of  widespread  infrastructure  and  general  standard  of  living.  Which
criteria are to be used and which countries can be classified as being developed are subjects of debate.
     Developed countries have post-industrial economies, meaning the service sector provides more wealth
than  the  industrial  sector.  They  are  contrasted  with  developing  countries,  which  are  in  the  process  of
industrialization, or undeveloped countries, which are pre-industrial and almost entirely agrarian. As of
2015, advanced economies comprise 60.8% of global GDP based on nominal values and 42.9% of global
GDP based on purchasing-power parity (PPP) according to the International Monetary Fund. In 2015, the
ten largest advanced economies by GDP in both nominal and PPP terms were Australia, Canada, France,
Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
