Abandon all hope, ye who enter here: Dante's

medieval classic the Divine Comedy has been

condemned as racist, antisemitic and Islamophobic

by a group calling for it to be removed from

classrooms.

The epic poem, written in the 14th century, is split

into three parts, tracing the poet's journey through

Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso. It is seen as one of

the cornerstones of world literature. But the

Italian human rights organisation Gherush92, which

advises UN bodies on human rights issues, wants it

to be removed from school curriculums, or at least

used with more caution, because it is "offensive and

discriminatory" and young people lack the "filters" to

understand it in context.

Gherush92 singled out some particular cantos from

Dante's masterwork for criticism: Inferno's 34th,

which tells of Judas, endlessly chewed in the teeth of

Lucifer, and 28th, in which Mohammed is depicted

torn "from the chin down to the part that gives out the

foulest sound", as well as Purgatorio's 26th, which

shows homosexuals under a rain of fire in purgatory.

The work, it says, slanders the Jewish people,

depicts Islam as a fallacy and is homophobic.

35. It is pointed out in the passage that The Divine

Comedy _____

A) dwells on world religions assets

B) became a classic after Dantes death

C) has been studied in schools since medieval

times

D) is recommended by human rights activists

E) is considered a mainstay of world literature

Gherush92 to Divine Comedy is that _____.

A) the approach to religions is too objective

B) the language is too archaic

C) it is both disrespectful and biased

D) todays school children have a different

vision

E) social comedies are losing popularity



37. One can infer from the passage that Gherush 92

wants the UN to _____.

A) have ultimate control over international

curriculums

B) take the subject as a human rights issue

C) approach schools with caution

D) assume responsibility for only international

issues

E) cautiously advise books like Divine Comedy

38. As one understands from the passage,

Comedy in order to _____.

A) justify its objections

B) prove childrens lack of capacity

C) emphasize the importance of schooling

Scientists are concerned that global warming could

cause much of the world's permafrost to thaw,

releasing vast quantities of greenhouse gases that

would accelerate climate change an example of

a positive feedback loop.

Measurements have shown that southerly permafrost

regions have already started to thaw and some

additional thawing is unavoidable. Even if all man-

made emissions ceased today, an additional global

warming of about 0.6C would be expected due to the

inertia of the climate system. Furthermore, due

to polar amplification, man-made warming affects

permafrost regions disproportionately: they warm

around 50% more than the globe as a whole.

However, according to recent modelling work, if

global emissions are cut rapidly and deeply enough

to meet the world's stated target of limiting the

average global temperature rise to 2C above pre-

industrial levels, the majority of the world's

permafrost will remain frozen.

39. It is stated in the passage that parts of the worlds

deep frozen soils _____.

A) are found in the southern hemisphere

B) have been solidifying even more

C) began to defrost some time ago

D) are not exposed to man-made emissions

E) are fast releasing greenhouse gasses

40. One learns from the passage that the impact of

man-made warming on permafrost regions is

_____.

A) rather uneven

B) surprisingly little

C) extreme

D) moderate

E) irreversible

41. It is possible to understand from the passage that

authorities have already _____.

A) set a target as regards the average global

temperature rise

B) succeeded in restricting global temperature

rises

C) taken measures to accelerate thawing in

permafrost regions

D) underestimated the magnitude of global

warming

E) managed to pull rises back to pre-industrial

levels

42. One can conclude from the passage that the

more greenhouse gasses, _____.

A) the colder the weather

B) the faster the climate change

C) the wetter it is

D) the more abundant water resources

E) the more optimistic people are

The resignation of Michael Pinto-Duschinsky from a

government commission last week is a vivid

reminder of the risky, sometimes fraught, relationship

between social scientists and politicians.

Pinto-Duschinsky said he was forced to resign from

the commission set up to examine the establishment

of a British bill of rights, because it had "paralyzed

parliament and the prime minister". As he told the

BBC's Sunday Politics show: "After one year it is now

clear that it has been intended all along to issue a

report in favour of the status quo. We have actually

considered the question of parliamentary sovereignty

only once in the whole year that we have been in

existence."

Furores such as this one raise the issue of

how academics can conduct research or contribute

expertise that feeds the development of policy,

without compromising their independence. For social

scientists, investigating and producing evidence on

how society works is the basis of all we do. It drives

our research and is the reason we get out of bed in

the morning. We want our work to be relevant, but

the practical application of research often takes place

in political settings, where particular policies and

ideas already have momentum. Academics often

worry they are only being brought in to sanction a

policy that has already been decided.

43. The writer of the passage openly states that it is

social scientists job to _____.

A) observe the operations of the society

scientifically

B) scrutinize the link between the society and

the national policy

C) run counter to the sovereignty of the

parliament

D) reconcile the society and politicians

E) question every step the government takes

44. According to the passage, Michael Pinto-

Duschinskys move illustrates that the politician-

social scientist relationship could be _____.

A) surprisingly fruitful

B) insecure and at times perilous

C) both equitable and open

D) either biased or impartial

E) neither progressive nor dogmatic

45. One learns from the passage that Michael Pinto-

Duschinsky quit the commission when _____.

A) controversy arouse within the commission

B) he was asked to change his ultimate report

C) a new commission was set up for the same

purpose

D) it was accused of undermining parliament

and the PM

E) he felt the bill was sure to fall short of

expectations

46. What the writer of the passage emphasizes is

that _____.

A) the report published is not in favour of the

status quo

B) social scientists will get used to making

deals with politicians

C) some policies and ideas are more

applauded than others

D) academics contribute to policy making more

than politicians themselves

E) research results of social scientists are

being dictated by the government

The head of the International Monetary Fund has

warned that the outlook for the global

economy remains uncertain following meetings in

China with the country's communist party leadership.

Christine Lagarde congratulated Beijing for its

stewardship of the world's second largest economy

and said "China remains a bright spot" in the global

growth league.

But she warned the situation could still deteriorate if

the world's major powers failed to react with policies

to stimulate growth and spread prosperity among all

their citizens.

"While the global economic outlook is certainly less

gloomy than when I was here last November, there

are still major economic and financial vulnerabilities

we must confront. There is not a great deal of room

for manoeuvre and no room for policy mistakes," she

said.

Her warning comes amid a slowdown in global

growth while oil prices continue to climb. Some

economists said the rising price of oil was an

increasing threat to growth after Brent crude hit $126

a barrel last week.

Lagarde said Chinese officials needed to move more

quickly "away from investment and exports, and

towards domestic consumption".

She said: "I am encouraged that the Chinese

authorities are focusing, not just on the level of

growth, but on growth that is more widely shared

across the entire population, as underscored by the

policy agenda in the recent 12th five-year plan.

47. According to the passage, what could hinder

global growth _____.

A) could be domestic consumption

B) would be increasing world population

C) was governments lack of capacity

D) could be being too bright a spot

E) was soaring oil prices

48. In the passage Lagarde clearly points out that

unless _____.

A) China promotes democracy, she cannot

maintain her brightness

B) financial manoeuvres continue to be made,

growth cannot be maintained

C) everybody gets their share of wealth, the

situation remains volatile

D) Beijing pulls costs down even further, growth

rates cannot be sustained

E) people are optimistic about vulnerabilities,

the gloomy outlook will remain

49. Lagarde recommends that Beijing should _____.

A) give up all her foreign investments

B) focus on domestic consumption

C) stop importing manufactured goods

D) quit her current introvert financial policy

E) be a bigger partner in global markets

50. Lagarde seems pleased with _____.

A) the fact that climbing oil prices do not effect

China

B) Chinas adaptability to changing situations

C) how China responds to foreign investment

demands

D) what Chinas 12th 5-year plan targets

E) Chinese way of distribution of wealth

The big metal roof is as deeply ingrained in British

architectural tradition as thatched cottages and stone

churches. The idea was invented for greenhouses,

then applied to the great Victorian railway stations

and to the Crystal Palace, that wondrous

achievement of scale and ingenuity, whose mythic

power is made all the greater by the fact that it no

longer exists. Big metal roofs speak of confidence

and boldness and of the time of this country's

greatest industrial might.

The concept has been exported, leading, for

example, to the geodesic domes of American

visionary Buckminster Fuller, potentially vast

structures with which he hoped to rehouse humanity.

More recent versions include the great over-sailing

structures of Norman Foster's airports at Stansted,

Hong Kong and Beijing, and Lord Rogers's

Millennium Dome. It manages to be futuristic and

nostalgic at once; the concept may be pushing two

centuries old, but the likes of Foster and Rogers still

present it as the acme of modernity. With the new

western concourse at King's Cross station, designed

by John McAslan and Partners, the big metal roof is

coming home. It is situated between two famous

examples of the genre, King's Cross station of 1852

and the later, more daring, St Pancras station, of

1868, and it is part of the 500m creation of a

"transport super-hub", completed in time for the

Olympics, when hundreds of thousands will pass

through here on their way to the Javelin train from

St Pancras to Stratford.

51. It is possible to conclude about the writer of the

passage that he _____.

A) finds metal roofs both economical and

practical

B) thinks the roof type in question is too

extravagant

C) is against importing ideas from other

countries

D) advices all stations have similar architectural

designs

E) very much applauds the type of roof

mentioned

52. Throughout the passage, the reader learns

_____.

A) why big metal roofs became fashionable

B) where there are examples of big metal roofs

C) about the impact of big metal roofs

D) about architects accounts for their

preferences

E) which architect designed which roof where

53. We know from the passage that big metal roofs

_____.

A) were initially used in greenhouses

B) are ideal for palaces with crystal glass

panes

C) can be seen in bold stations of our times

D) used to have mystic powers

E) have always conveyed a sense of

achievement

54. According to the passage, the big metal roof, an

feature of British architecture, _____.

A) owes its current popularity to foreign

architects

B) has never ceased to be popular in Britain

C) symbolizes a countrys might over others

D) is ahead of the times while being

reminiscent of the past

E) has always been considered a daring aspect

of architecture
