Have you ever felt a sudden feeling of joy because you heard a favorite song playing? Then you know that music can have a strong effect on your emotions. Try to take advantage of this power of music. It can help get you out of a bad mood or stay in a good mood, says Alicia Ann Clair, professor of music therapy at the University of Kansas. Music can also help you relax and feel rejuvenated.
To cheer up or boost your energy, listen to Latin music or anything with a strong beat, lots of percussion, and a fast tempo. When you want to relax after a busy day, music with string instruments and woodwinds, less percussion, and a slower tempo can calm you.
Listen to calming music before you start any stressful activities, advises Dr. Clair. “Once you’re in a good state of mind, it’s easier to maintain it.” You can lower stress at work with music, too, by playing relaxing tunes. But only play them when you really need them. You can change your mood by switching from one kind of music to another. For example, first play some nice gentle ballads, and then listen to something more energetic. When you want to calm down after a busy week at work, just do the opposite.
(Adapted from Strategic Reading by Richards and Eckstut-Didier)

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 36 to 42.
The world's population reached five billion on the day I was born. That was in Indonesia back in 1987, and my parents were amazed that there were so many people on the planet. However, since then the population has continued to increase.
The growth of our human population is extraordinary. For more than two million years, humans lived with no permanent home, finding plants to eat and hunting animals for meat. Then, just 10,000 years ago, we invented agriculture. At that time, there were only about five million humans, but this figure quickly doubled. The population reached a billion in 1805, and since then it has multiplied seven times.
The human population has never been bigger, but in some ways the planet seems to be getting smaller. In the past, travellers from Europe to Indonesia spent months at sea. Now you just have to sit on a plane for a few hours. When you arrived in another country a hundred years ago, you saw unfamiliar styles of clothing and architecture and discovered a completely different culture. In many places today, clothing and new buildings are very similar, and people enjoy the same sports, music, films and TV shows. We also buy the same products from huge, global companies. In our different continents, we are starting to live the same lives. Even the languages that we use are becoming more global. There are around seven thousand languages in use today, but the number is decreasing fast.
The same thing is happening around the world. Experts think that the number of different languages will halve to just 3,500 by the end of this century. Where will it stop? Will there be a time in the future when Earth's billions all speak just one language, and there are no cultural differences to divide us? Perhaps the planet would be more peaceful if this happened, but I must admit that the idea is quite depressing. I prefer to think that, as our population grows, we can celebrate not the similarity but the fascinating diversity of the human race.
(Adapted from Insight by Roberts and Sayer)

Florists, personal trainers, professors, and nutritionists all have healthy jobs according to research. There are many reasons for this. A florist, for example, sells flowers and plants to customers. This is very relaxing work. A personal trainer, on the other hand, is usually very fit. He or she trains other people to lose weight and to keep fit.
However, research also shows that some jobs are 'unhealthy'. They cause a lot of stress and worry. For example, a taxi driver drives all day. He often faces traffic jams and difficult passengers too. A firefighter puts out dangerous fires and sometimes saves people from burning buildings.
Most people are looking for the perfect job. They want a job that is interesting, with a good salary and not much stress. However, it is difficult to get everything. Healthy, relaxing jobs are usually not very well paid. On the other hand, people with stressful jobs often get good salaries. For example, the head of a big company gets a lot of money, but he or she does not always have good health, or the time to enjoy life.

The next time you're out in a public place, like a park or a restaurant, look around you. What is happening? Some people are surfing the internet on their phones. Others are wearing headphones, listening to music on their MP3 players. That's just the way life is today. We all spend a fair amount of our time connected to technology.
Now imagine living in a world without smartphones, tablets or any of the electronic gadgets we take for granted these days. There's no internet and you go to the library and look at a book when you want to find anything out. You play outside with friends in the real world instead of playing online video games in virtual worlds. There are no texts, no DVDs and no email. Welcome to 1986!
That's the world the McMillan family from Ontario, Canada, decided to live in for a year. Blair, 27, Morgan, 28, and their two sons Trey and Denton, aged five and three, got rid of their cable TV, smartphones, internet, new games console, digital camera, DVD player and sat nav, and instead used an old TV, a radio, old telephones, a VHS video player, an old games console and maps. They decided to try it after seeing how their young children were becoming dependent on technology. They aren't alone. More and more parents today worry about the effect technology is having on their children, particularly very young children.
The McMillans decided to get back to basics to see how things have changed. So how did they find their year without modem technology? ‘I thought Blair was mad when he suggested doing this whole thing,’ says Morgan, but it's made me realise how much time we wasted. We seem much more relaxed now, not checking in on email or Facebook all the time.’ The McMillans are now back in the present with a different attitude to today's technology. Blair said, ‘I'm not anti-technology. I wanted to taste, and I wanted my kids to taste what it would be like without it, and to see if we could actually do it.”
(Adapted from Optimise by Malcolm Mann and Steve Taylore-Knowles)

Sleep is very important for the brain. While we are asleep, the brain repairs itself. It also stores information that it learned during the day. If we do not get enough sleep, the brain cannot do these things. We become tired and we cannot remember things so well. Our body's 'immune system', which is its self- defence system, becomes weaker, so we are more likely to get ill.
Most people find sleep difficult because they are not relaxed. They do not exercise enough during the day, and in the evening, they are still thinking about their work or studies. In addition, they make phone calls or look at email messages until late at night. They also have too many drinks which contain caffeine, such as coffee, and eat dinner just before they go to bed. All of this is bad for sleeping.
So, what can we do? Of course, it is important to be relaxed. However, there are other things we can do to help us get a good night's sleep. First of all, we should make sure that the bed is comfortable, with a good mattress and pillows. The bedroom should be dark and quiet, so that we are not disturbed by light or noise. We should also have the same routine every evening before we go to bed. For example, we should read a book, have a hot bath, or listen to relaxing music. Finally, we should try to go to bed at the same time every night. In this way, we will start to sleep better and feel more active the next day.
(Adapted from New Headway Academic Skills by Richard Harrison)

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 36 to 42.
There is a poem in Sanskrit, the classical language of India, which says that friendship must consist of the following elements: giving, taking, sharing secrets, knowing where your friends are, and giving and sharing food with them. This ancient definition seems like a very apt description. Shared interests and opinions are essential. It isn't easy to get on with someone who can't stand your taste in music or fashion.
Most of us have friends - but it's likely that only a few of them can be described as close friends. Robin Dunbar, a British professor of evolutionary psychology, believes that the maximum number of people we can have in our social group at one time is 150. Many of these are acquaintances. We don't meet them very often, but we might invite them to a big party, for instance. But - according to Dunbar - we don't normally have more than five close friends.
So, who is a best friend? It is someone who's there for you when you're feeling miserable - to give you advice when you want it and to just listen when you need someone to talk to. It might be someone you have known all your life, or someone you've recently met. It might be someone you only see once a year, but when you do get together it feels like you saw him or her only last week. But can you have a best friend of the opposite sex? In theory, the answer should be yes, but in practice, things can get complicated!
These days, social networking sites offer many opportunities to get to know people online. These are usually people who are into the same things as you are (such as music and films), and can give you advice about the different issues you face. For some people, especially those who aren't so self-assured, making friends online is easier. Online friends aren't going to be as demanding as your friends from the real world might be. Moreover, if you get bored with a conversation online, or if someone's messages are getting on your nerves, you can just ignore them. On the other hand, it may not be realistic to expect your online friends to give you real support when you need it - so a balance of online and real-world friends is probably ideal!
(Adapted from Oxford Exam Trainer by Helen Weale)

Many people assume that video games have a negative effect on young people. A lot of time in front of a screen is bad for the mind and the body, they believe. Newspaper headlines often express the same opinion - and combat games cause the most concern because of the violence. But is there any evidence for this view? According to a report in American Psychologist, the truth is not so simple. Playing video games is sometimes good for children's education, health and social skills.
Research shows that video games can actually improve certain mental skills. This is especially true for combat games. These games teach players to think about objects in three dimensions and this makes them better at studying science, technology, engineering and maths. Other types of video game do not usually provide these benefits.
Video games can improve social skills too, the report says. More than 70% of gamers play with a friend, not alone, and millions of people take part in huge online games like Minecraft and Farmville. The players learn useful social skills: how to lead a group, how to work together and how to make decisions. Overall, the report does not deny that some video games can have negative effects; but it is important to think about the benefits too. And remember: you mustn't believe everything you read in the newspapers!

Is there a right way to bring up children? Some parents read guides to find an answer, many just follow their instinct. Whatever they do, a doubt always remains: could I have done a better job?
A recent contribution to the subject is Amy Chua's controversial book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, which describes the approach to child-rearing of an ambitious Chinese parent living in the west. According to Chua, western mothers are far too soft on their children. She says they are always praising their children for every effort they make, even if the result is coming last in a race or playing a piano piece badly. These are the kind of parents who will give in to their children's demands to go out and play rather than do their homework, if they protest loud enough.
The tiger mother method is very different and the key is total control. Tiger mothers will accept nothing less than 'A' grades in every subject - failure to achieve these is just proof that they have not worked hard enough. They will encourage not with praise and reward, but by punishing and shaming. Chua told her own daughter that she would take her doll's house to a charity shop if she failed to master a difficult piano piece. She even rejected a homemade birthday card from her daughter Sophia because she had drawn it in a hurry.
But that highlights another difference, says Chua, which is directness and honesty. A tiger mother will not hesitate to tell their child that they are lazy, whereas western parents are always telling their children not to worry, that they will do better next time, even if they think they have been lazy. The constant nagging of the tiger mother, the banning of TV and computer games seems harsh, but perhaps it works. Chua's children have not rebelled, and they don't resent their strict upbringing. They regularly get the top grades at school and are proficient at violin and piano - stereotypical symbols of success, critics would say. By contrast, children with more freedom and more laid-back parents will often lack self-discipline and will fail to push themselves to achieve more.

Another change from the past is that people don't stay in the place (36) _______ they were born. They go to different cities and countries for education and jobs. This means that we have more (37) _______ to meet and make friends with people from different cultures and different backgrounds. One thing is definitely true though, it doesn't matter how old we are or how many friends we have on social media, friendship is good for our health. People who spend time with friends have fewer mental health problems and are generally happier and in a better physical (38) _______ of health than people who spend their free time alone.

Have you ever thought about leaving school and learning at home? Thousands of young people do exactly that. It's called 'homeschooling' or 'home education'. So why do parents make the decision to do this? Some parents take their children out of school due to bullying or other serious problems, but there is a growing number of British parents who choose to home-educate their children from the start.
We spoke to Erin Morgan, who chose home-schooling for her children. “We took our children out of school when my son Joseph was six and daughter Lily was eight. There were no problems with teachers and neither of the children was being bullied - in fact they were quite popular – but they were simply bored. With large class sizes, little money and other problems, it's difficult for teachers to give some children the individual attention they need.”
“When we started home-schooling, I was worried the children wouldn't fit in socially, so they have a few organized activities a week. Joseph is learning the trumpet and plays in a band. Lily goes to ballet classes and they both have swimming lessons. This means they learn skills and enjoy the company of other children at the same time. Whatever the age of your children, home-schooling is a challenge, but in my opinion the worst thing to do is to turn the home into a formal school. Learning should be fun, and children and young people need to feel happy in order to achieve.”

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 44 to 50.
Every summer, three billion birds of some 300 species-songbirds, waterbirds, and many others migrate from northern Africa to Europe and Asia. In the winter, they return to Africa's warmer shores. As they travel from one place to another, they navigate using the sun, the stars, smells, and land forms to help them find their way. Both large and small birds travel thousands of kilometers, often stopping at locations along the way to rest.
The birds’ migration is long and difficult, and some of the animals inevitably die during each trip. However, it is not this twice-a-year journey that poses the greatest risk to these animals. The main threat to the birds’ survival comes from human hunters. All over the Mediterranean, millions of migrating birds are killed for food, profit, and sport every year. As a result, bird populations are dropping all over the region. In nations along the Mediterranean, many migratory birds are illegally trapped or shot. In addition to traps, hunters also use electronic calls to catch birds. This tool, which a hunter can operate from a cell phone, mimics bird sounds and is very effective in attracting the animals so effective that in some countries, bird populations have plummeted.
Countries all over the Mediterranean are aware that bird populations are in danger, and many are working to address this problem. In the European Union, hunting migratory birds is illegal in some countries, while in others, it is strictly controlled - the birds can only be hunted at a certain time of year. This hasn't completely stopped bird poaching in Europe, but more nature-protection groups are making sure that laws are obeyed.
Across the Mediterranean, another group - Nature Conservation Egypt - is working to increase protection of its country's natural scenery and wildlife, including its migratory birds. As part of a current project, the organization is trying to promote activities such as eco-tourism along the coasts. Wildlife organizations around the Mediterranean are helping to bring about change. Hunting bans are working, says Martin Schneider-Jacoby, a bird specialist for the German organization EuroNatur. But there is still more to do. Conservationists hope to stop hunting and restore bird habitats all over the Mediterranean. If this can be done, the birds’ numbers will increase. There's a long way to go, Schneider-Jacoby says, but like an Oasis in the desert after a long journey, there is hope.

Stress is worry and anxiety in your life. Stress stops you from relaxing. It is the most common cause of heart disease and it can lead to cancer. Stress can cause poor concentration, can affect judgement and can result in accidents. Stress can be the cause of family break-ups, violence and even suicide. So what are the main causes of stress in a typical modem lifestyle?
A study has identified between 50 and 60 possible causes of stress. The most common cause of stress is having financial problems. People cannot do the things they want to do because they lack money. Debts are growing because mortgage repayments are increasing and credit card bills need to be paid. The cost of living is rising, and it all adds up to worry. Pressure and worry at work is another cause of stress. People worry that there is change and people worry when there is no change. They may feel that their boss does not understand them or that he makes life difficult for them.
People have found ways to deal with stress. Some do yoga or other forms of relaxation exercise to prevent them from becoming over-anxious, while others claim that taking part in hard physical activity helps them to work off stress. Everyone should make sure that they spend some time every day doing what makes them happy. Stress is a killer.

Kai Kensavaong will never again walk along the muddy lanes of Sop On, the village in southern Laos where she was born. Her old home now lies at the bottom of a reservoir of brown water created to feed a hydroelectric power plant, the first to be funded by the World Bank for over twenty years.
The World Bank stopped financing hydroelectric dam projects in developing countries twenty years ago because of criticism that such projects were harming local communities and the environment. But Nam Theun 2- a 39-metre-high dam on the Mekong River that generates over 1,000 megawatts of electricity - is the showpiece for the bank's new policy of supporting sustainable hydropower projects. For Laos it is part of a longer-term strategy to revitalise the economy and become the battery of South- East Asia.
In 2010 the dam brought $5.6 million in sales of electricity and it is estimated that during the next 25 years Nam Theun 2 will generate around $2 billion in revenue to Laos, one of Asia's poorest countries, since most of the electricity will be exported to its power-hungry neighbour, Thailand. Seventeen villages in the flooded area have now been rebuilt and the 6,200 people - mostly farmers - who lived in them have been retrained to make a living from the reservoir.
But the old criticisms have not gone away. Environmental and human rights groups warn that the dam will have a negative impact on water quality and fish and that the local people who were relocated after the area was flooded may not be able to support themselves economically in future. 'People are happy with these new amenities, but the real problem is how to restore sustainable livelihoods for communities who used to rely on the natural resources - forests, fish and grazing lands for their animals - now that they’ve lost these,' says Ikuko Matsumoto, programme director for the environmental group, International Rivers.
But the World Bank says it is responsive to these problems. A 4,100-square kilometre protected area has been established around the dam to safeguard flora and fauna. It admits though that rebuilding the lives of the villagers is not a short-term process and everyone is trying to learn and readjust as they go along.
