When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child's name. And in some cases, the time of a child's birth influences how the child's name is determined.
In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents' choice for their child's name may be based on names of relatives or ancestors within their particular family. For example, in Italy, children are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father's parents' names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother's parents' names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death.
Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child's grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child's name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child's name is chosen to influence the child's character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness.
In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child's name. In Ghana's Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child's name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua are names meaning "wanderer” or “explorer." Children with these names are seen as travelers.
No matter where the name comes from, a child's name is the first gift in life. Whether it is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, the name reflects something about a child's culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.
Question 36. The word "means" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.

B. The choice of a child's name should be based on names of his or her relatives.
C. A child’s name shouldn't be connected with certain elements of nature.
D. The choice of a child’s name is believed to have an impact on his or her personality.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 46 to 50.
Marcel Bich, a French entrepreneur who manufactured traditional ink pens, revolutionized the ballpoint pen industry by creating an affordable and high-quality writing instrument. Bich was shocked at the poor quality of the ballpoint pens that were available, and also at their high cost. However, he recognised that the ballpoint was a firmly established invention, and he decided to design a cheap pen that worked well and would be commercially successful.
Bich sought permission from the Biro brothers to use their original invention's design in one of his pens and offered to compensate them for each pen sold. For two years, Bich meticulously studied the construction of every ballpoint pen available, even using a microscope to aid him in his research.
In 1950, Bich introduced the Bic Cristal, a plastic pen with a transparent barrel that wrote smoothly, didn't leak, and cost just a few cents. The public embraced the new pen, which became a practical writing instrument. In the UK, the pens are still referred to as Biros, and some Bic models bear the name "Biro" on their side as a nod to their original inventors.
Bich became extremely wealthy thanks to his invention, which had worldwide appeal. Over the next six decades, his company, Société Bic, expanded its product line to include inexpensive lighters, razors, and other goods. Today, Bic is renowned for its range of products, and consumers can even purchase Bic mobile phones.

B. a cheap pen could be designed with great commercial success
C. a firm was not established to produce high-quality ballpoint pens

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 20 to 24.
Marcel Bich, a French entrepreneur who manufactured traditional ink pens, revolutionized the ballpoint pen industry by creating an affordable and high-quality writing instrument. Bich was shocked at the poor quality of the ballpoint pens that were available, and also at their high cost. However, he recognised that the ballpoint was a firmly established invention, and he decided to design a cheap pen that worked well and would be commercially successful.
Bich sought permission from the Biro brothers to use their original invention's design in one of his pens and offered to compensate them for each pen sold. For two years, Bich meticulously studied the construction of every ballpoint pen available, even using a microscope to aid him in his research.
In 1950, Bich introduced the Bic Cristal, a plastic pen with a transparent barrel that wrote smoothly, didn't leak, and cost just a few cents. The public embraced the new pen, which became a practical writing instrument. In the UK, the pens are still referred to as Biros, and some Bic models bear the name "Biro" on their side as a nod to their original inventors.
Bich became extremely wealthy thanks to his invention, which had worldwide appeal. Over the next six decades, his company, Société Bic, expanded its product line to include inexpensive lighters, razors, and other goods. Today, Bic is renowned for its range of products, and consumers can even purchase Bic mobile phones.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 37 to 43.
When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child's name. And in some cases, the time of a child's birth influences how the child's name is determined.
In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents' choice for their child's name may be based on names of relatives or ancestors within their particular family. For example, in Italy, children are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father's parents' names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother's parents' names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death.
Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child's grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child's name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child's name is chosen to influence the child's character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness.
In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child's name. In Ghana's Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child's name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua are names meaning "wanderer” or “explorer." Children with these names are seen as travelers.
No matter where the name comes from, a child's name is the first gift in life. Whether it is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, the name reflects something about a child's culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.
Question 37. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The choice of name for a child in Asia
B. The practice of child naming in Europe
C. The history of child naming around the world
D. The tradition of child naming in different cultures
Question 38. The word "treasured" in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ______.

B. A child’s name shouldn't be connected with certain elements of nature.
C. The choice of a child's name should be based on names of his or her relatives.

When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child's name. And in some cases, the time of a child's birth influences how the child's name is determined.
In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents' choice for their child's name may be based on names of relatives or ancestors within their particular family. For example, in Italy, children are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father's parents' names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother's parents' names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death.
Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child's grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child's name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child's name is chosen to influence the child's character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness.
In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child's name. In Ghana's Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child's name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua are names meaning "wanderer” or “explorer." Children with these names are seen as travelers.
No matter where the name comes from, a child's name is the first gift in life. Whether it is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, the name reflects something about a child's culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.
Question 25. According to the passage, in many European cultures, names are typically selected by ______.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 20 to 24.
Marcel Bich, a French entrepreneur who manufactured traditional ink pens, revolutionized the ballpoint pen industry by creating an affordable and high-quality writing instrument. Bich was shocked at the poor quality of the ballpoint pens that were available, and also at their high cost. However, he recognised that the ballpoint was a firmly established invention, and he decided to design a cheap pen that worked well and would be commercially successful.
Bich sought permission from the Biro brothers to use their original invention's design in one of his pens and offered to compensate them for each pen sold. For two years, Bich meticulously studied the construction of every ballpoint pen available, even using a microscope to aid him in his research.
In 1950, Bich introduced the Bic Cristal, a plastic pen with a transparent barrel that wrote smoothly, didn't leak, and cost just a few cents. The public embraced the new pen, which became a practical writing instrument. In the UK, the pens are still referred to as Biros, and some Bic models bear the name "Biro" on their side as a nod to their original inventors.
Bich became extremely wealthy thanks to his invention, which had worldwide appeal. Over the next six decades, his company, Société Bic, expanded its product line to include inexpensive lighters, razors, and other goods. Today, Bic is renowned for its range of products, and consumers can even purchase Bic mobile phones.
