 Greeting with a "Wai"

"Sawasdi" is the Thai word of greeting. It is usually accompanied by a "wai," which is made by pressing the two palms together. The palms are  then raised atvarious levels depending on the seniority of the person one is greeting.          

The "wai" originated in India, but the Indians keep their "wai" to just one level. The Thaisrefined it, resulting in four levels of "wai"  

To pay respect to monks, the pressed palms are raised to the forehead, with the tips of the thumbs resting precisely between the two eyebrows and the fingers touching only the tip of the hair. 

The middle of the face is where palms rest when we pay respect to our parents, teachers,     and other elderly people we highly regard. The tips of the thumbs touch the tip of the nose while the tips of the index fingers rest between the eye­ brows. 
To greet people in general, the palms are lowered to the lower part of the face, with the       tips of the thumbs touching the chin and the tips of the index fingers touching the tip of the nose.    
To greet our equals, there is no need to bow the head, we simply raise the palms slightly in front of us.  
It is a convention that a greeting must be returned. So we reciprocate with the pressed       palms raised slightly at the level of the chest with a bowed head.                                            


1.What is "sawasdi"?
1. A word of thanking someone
2. A word of greeting
3. An expression of letting out emotion
4. An exclamation

2.When did the "wai" come from?
1. China

Part III : Reading Comprehension 
Direction: Read the following passage to answer the questions by choosing from a, b, c, d.
Passage I
            A vaccine against E. coli, the deadly food poisoning bacteria that forced the recall last year of millions of kilograms of US beef, has been tested successfully on a small group of volunteers, researchers said on Monday.
            Scientists at the US National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and the Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, report that a preliminary study using 87 volunteers showed that the vaccine causes an immune reaction that could protect against infection by E. coli 01570. “This is still very early in the research,” said Dr. Dwayne Alexander, director of the institute on child health and human and human development, one of the US national Institutes of Health. “This is the first human study of this proposed vaccine.”
            He said the important finding is that the vaccine produced a level on antibody in the volunteers that could kill E. coli 0157 in the test tube. “We don’t know yet if it will kill the bacteria in the body,” he said.
            Dr. Alexander said the next step is tests to determine if the vaccine will prevent E. coli infection in cattle, which are thought to be the most common source of the infection.
            E. coli 0157 is a deadly, new strain of bacteria that can contaminate beef, fruit juice and other food, causing severe food poisoning symptoms, including bloody diarrhea and damaged kidneys. People can also become infected by 
swimming in lakes or rivers contaminated with the organism.
            E. coli is formally known as Escherichia coli, named for Theodor Escherich, a German bacteriologist who first isolated it 111 years ago. A benign form of the organism lives in the human gut where it is essential for digestion.
            Researchers believe that some genes of a dangerous virus, called shigella, were transferred into E. coli during a shigella epidemic in Central America in the 1970s. This transformed one strain of a usually harmless germ into a pathogen that does not respond well to antibiotics and can cause severe food poisoning.

51.  This story is mainly about
a.  the discovery of what causes a new and deadly illness.
b.  the creation of a successful vaccine which protects people against a dangerous infection.
c.  an important step in the creation of a successful vaccine which might some day protect people against a dangerous infection.
d.  an explanation of how vaccines are made and tested.

52.  In paragraph two, why did the writer call the research “a preliminary study”?
a.  because it was successful
b.  because it used volunteers 
c.  because it has been going on for a very long time
d.  because there is still much more research to be done

53.  In what way was the vaccine considered a success?
a.  It protected the volunteers against an infection from E. coli.
b.  It was able to kill E. coli bacteria without harming the volunteers.
c.  It enabled the volunteers to produce effective antibodies against E. coli. 
d.  It stopped the volunteers from suffering the effects of an E. coli infection.

54.  Researcher suspect that E. coli 0157 was the result of
a.  a bacteria changing itself into a virus
b.  a bacteria getting some genetic material from a virus 
c.  a virus which became a bacteria.
d.  a person eating a piece of infected meat
55.  It is clear from the story that something which contaminates something else
a.  does not have any effect on it at all
b.  is most likely to benefit it in some way 
c.  helps protect it form a dangerous infection
d.  makes it impure or unclean in some way

56.  Which one of these is a pathogen (see paragraph 7)?
a.  an antibiotic                    
b.  an antibody
c.  a fruit juice
d.  a flu virus

Passage II
            One of the most successful commercial products ever launched is said to have come about as the result of a mistake. In 1896, Jacob’s Pharmacy in Atlanta, Georgia, was selling a nerve tonic known as ‘French Wine Cola-Ideal Nerve Tonic’. By accidentally adding fizzy water instead of still water to the 
recipe, a pharmacist called John S. Pemberton invented what has today become the most popular soft drink in the world: Coca-Cola. Along with its closest rival-Pepsi which appeared on the market three years later, Coke has enjoyed phenomenal success worldwide, particularly in the past fifty years. Indeed, old Coke bottles and ‘limited edition’ cans can often fetch considerable sums form collectors, and there are even stores which deal exclusively in Coke products and memorabilia.
            What could possibly account for the amazing success of Coca-Cola? How has this combination of carbonated water, sugar, acid and flavorings come to symbolize the American way of life for most of the world? After all, even the manufacturers could hardly describe Coke as a healthy product since it contains relatively high amounts of sugar (admittedly) not the case with Diet Coke which contains artificial sweeteners instead of sugar) and phosphoric acid, both of which are known to damage teeth 
            One explanation may be found in the name. The original recipe included a flavoring from the coca plant and probably included small amounts of cocaine (an addictive substance), but since the early part of this century all traces of cocaine have been removed. However, Coke (like all cola drinks) also includes a flavoring from the cola tree; cola extract contains caffeine, which is a stimulant, and  the Coca-Cola company adds extra caffeine for good measure. While caffeine is not thought to be an addictive substance in itself, there is considerable evidence that over a period of time the consumption of caffeine has to be increased in order for its stimulating effect to be maintained, and so sales of Coke perhaps benefit as a result.

57.  In paragraph 1, the writer points out that
a.  Coke is so popular that some shops sell noting else
b.  only certain people are allowed to enter the most popular Coke stores 
c.  some stores can successfully sell Coke at higher prices
d.  Coke is so popular that some shops only sell goods with the Coke label

58.  The writer uses ‘for good measure’ in paragraph 3 to emphasize the fact that
a.  there is a lot of caffeine in Coke
b.  the amount of caffeine in Coke is carefully measured
c.  the extra caffeine improves the taste of Coke
d.  the extra caffeine balances the amount found naturally in the cola extract

59.  ‘Coke has enjoyed phenomenal success’ paragraph 1 suggests the writer
a.  thinks that the success of Coke is very strange 
b.  believes that the success of Coke is very strange
c.  rater disapproves of the success of Coke
d.  considers the success of Coke to be undeserved

60.  ‘both of which’ in paragraph 2 refer to:
a.  phosphoric and acid
b.  sugar and artificial sweetener
c.  sugar and phosphoric acid
d.  artificial sweetener and phosphoric acid

61.  In paragraph 1, ‘cans can often fetch considerable sums’ means the same as:
a.  Coke is quite expensive in some parts of the world 
b.  collectors consider carefully how much they are paying for a can of Coke 

c.  some collectors will only drink Coke in exclusive stores
d.  certain Coke cans are worth a lot of money as collectable items

62.  Which of the following is closest in meaning to ‘memorabilia’ in paragraph 1:
a.  clothing
b.  souvenirs
c.  containers
d.  packages

63.  Which of the following statements about the passage is true 
a.  Cocaine and caffeine are addictive substances
b.  Al least one of the ingredients of Coke is addictive 
c.  The stimulating effect of caffeine is reduced over time unless consumption of it is increaded
d.  The Coca-Cola company has gradually increased the amount of caffeine it puts in Coke

Passage III
            It seems the art of survival-or continual positive projection-in the world of pop music these days, depends very much on change. If artists fail to recreate their persona-chameleon-like, over and over again-they risk facing accusations of dullness; that they are not fashionable
            This phenomenon is especiallly prevalent in the female ranks. It is not sufficient for an artist to be beautiful and sexy. These characteristics too mush be changed often, and remodeled to avid being bogged down by stereotype.
            Two examples of the rock ‘n’ roll art of move and change are Cher and Madonna, the latter a brilliant illustration of the trend. Her latest disc, ‘Something to Remember’, showcases her hit ballads and how she has so effectively been able to stay at the top without diminishing credibility in her particular field.
            This collection demonstrates how she has toned down her dominatrix image at relevant times to give contrast and definition to her career. But it offers more than simply a study in rock fashion history. There is also a solid assortment of quality music. 
            However, Cher’s latest package, ‘It’s a Man’s World’, cannot be reviewed in a lofty vein. In her past-the most memorable moment for this reviewer being her visit to a US warship amid cheering sailors for ‘If I Could Turn Back Time’-she has competed admirably. And she has demonstrated the classic features of the change syndrome. But this is a tired and dull Cher, perhaps attempting to tone down her sexy, boy-crazy, rollicking image in this session but failing.

64.  This article is primarily
a.  a review of Madonna’s new record
b.  a review of Cher’s new record 
c.  an analysis of Madonna’s success in Hollywood
d.  a review of Madonna’s career

65.  The main point of paragraph 1 is to tell the reader that artists need to
a.  keep an image that the public knows and loves
b.  recreate themselves to survive
c.  avoid being dull at all costs
d.  sty sexy to survive


66.  How would you describe the writer’s attitude towards Madonna:
a.  basically critical
b.  negative
c.  generally favorable
d.  uncritically admiring

67.  In paragraph 3 the main point is to:
a.  compare Cher’s and Madonna’s work
b.  describe some stories from Madonna’s past
c.  introduce Madonna’s new record
d.  detail the contents of the new record

68.  How would you describe the writer’s attitude towards Cher:
a.  enthusiastic
b.  negative
c.  favorable
d.  uncritically admiring

69.  In paragraph 2 ‘This phenomenon’ refers to:
a.  the recreation of persona
b.  the art of survival
c.  accusations of dullness
d.  prevalence in the female ranks

70.  In paragraph 2, ‘bogged down’ could be replaced by which of the following?
a.  enhanced
b.  improved
c.  restricted

d.  engrossed

Passage IV
            Job seekers have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes, or the relative importance to themselves of such matters as money, security, leadership and caring for others. An honest assessment of personal interests and abilities such as creative or scientific skills, or skills acquired from work experience, should also be given careful thought.
            The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. To do this, graduates can study job vacancies and information in newspapers or they can visit a careers office, write to possible employers for information or contact friends or relatives who may already be involved in a particular profession. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons *ไม่อนุญาต*ween various careers.
            Good personal presentation is essential in the search for a good career. Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors. When graduates are asked to attend for interview, employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also obviously important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much *ไม่อนุญาต*ter than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer. 

71.  In paragraph 1, ‘their’ refers to:

a.  job seekers 
b.  abilities
c.  academic qualifications
d.  special skills 

72.  ‘relatives’ in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by:
a.  family 
b.  friends
c.  acquaintances 
d.  spouses

73.  In paragraph 3, the writer seems to suggest that:
a.  interviewees should ask a question if they can’t think of an answer
b.  pretending to understand a question in *ไม่อนุญาต*ter than giving an unsuitable answer
c.  it is *ไม่อนุญาต*ter for interviewees to be honest than to pretend to understand
d.  it is not a good idea for interviewees to be completely honest in their answers

74.  Which of the following does ‘This’ in paragraph 3 refer to?
a.  not being afraid to be unsure
b.  giving positive and helpful answers to the questions 
c.  being prepared to ask questions about things they don’t understand
d.  being unsure about the questions

75.  According to paragraph 2, graduates should:
a.  find a good position and then compare with other careers 
b.  ask friends or relatives to secure then a good job
c.  get information about a number of careers before making comparisons
d. find out as much as possible and inform employers of the comparisons they want

76.  According to paragraph 1, job seekers should
a.  aim to give a balanced account of what the employer needs.
b.  divide the time equally *ไม่อนุญาต*ween listening to the interviewer and speaking 
c.  discuss their own abilities in relation to what the employer is looking for 
d.  attempt to show the employer have balanced abilities 

77.  In paragraph 1, the writer implies graduates should
a.  only consider careers which are suited to them as people
b.  include information about personal attitudes and values in their job applications 
c.  consider how lucky they are to be able to find careers that provide such things 
d.  consider the values of their parents and families as well as their own wishes

  Passage V
            There is no doubt China will burn more coal, exerting a major influence on global warming. In a paper presented to the Regional Conference on Environmental Challenges for Asian Pacific Energy Systems in the 1990s in Kuala Lumpur last year, Mr. Shen Longhai and Mr. Liu Lujun from China’s State Planning Commission explained energy consumption had increased by six percent each year over the last decade.
            China is the world’s third biggest energy consumer behind the US and the Confederation of Independent States, but it should be.

  Passage VI
            The romance with which Charles Dodgson surrounded young Alice Liddell resulted in the classic children’s tales ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking Glass’, which appeared under his pen name, Lewis Carroll. Poet Robert Graves drew inspiration from a series of young and attractive muses who threatened or destroyed his marriages and confused his children. 
            Graham Greene, at the age of 20, played Russian roulette after his first love, Gwendoline Howell, 30, wed her finance. The first edition volume of his first book, Bobbling April, bears the inscription in Greene’s own hand: “From Graham Greene to GHS, to whom the little that is good here belongs by right.”
            It seems that unfulfilled love produces excellent creative results. Would Ludwig van Beethoven have composed his greatest works if he had not been
 torn with longing for romantic fulfillment? Beethoven wrote in his personal diaries: “Only love, yes! Love alone can give you a happier life. O God grant me the grace to find her at last, the woman who will strengthen me in virtue and whom I can possess with a quiet conscience.” 
            The composer may have been infatuated with a woman named Antonie Brentano, to whom his poem ‘Immortal Beloved’, discovered after his death in 1827, may have been addressed. ‘Be calm-love me-today-yesterday-what tearful longings for you-my life-my all-farewell. Oh continue to love me-never misjudge
            Composer Robert Schumann’s passionate devotion to his fiancée, Clara, and anguish that the marriage was opposed by her father Frienrich Wieck resulted, says author Basil Howitt, in some of his most stupendous work. “Intense and unfulfilled longing for his beloved drew some heavenly music from Schumann, “says Howitt, in his recently published book, ‘Love Lives of the Great Composer’. No less than four major works grew out of all his pain and anguish.” Howitt says: “My cumulative impression is that suffering and angst in love have produced more great art than has happiness.” Pointed out its per capita energy use was less than half the global average in 1987 and only eight percent of the US figure. Dr. Hills said some observers believed China would pursue its economic goals before making a serious effort on the environment.
            “Some people believe China will follow the Japanese model and that is you get dirty, you get rich and then you clean it up,” he said. “Japan got dirty and rich *ไม่อนุญาต*ween 1950 and 1970 and cleaned up *ไม่อนุญาต*ween 1970 and 1980 “If you accept the Japanese model and that kind of reasoning, it becomes a race against time. The question is can China really get rich enough quickly enough before the costs of cleaning up become so horrendous that it is impractical.”
78.  According to the passage :
a.  it is certain that China will burn more coal in the future
b.  it is likely that China will burn more coal in the future
c.  it is doubtful that China will burn more coal in the future
d.  it is possible that China will burn more coal in the future

79.  According to the passage the individual energy consumption of the Chinese:
a.  is slightly above the global average 
b.  is about the global average 
c.  is modest compared to world standards 
d.  is about one fifth of the US average 

80.  The Japanese experience is mentioned
a.  as a good example that the Chinese may follow
b.  as a bad example that the Chinese should not follow 
c.  as an example that the Chinese may be able to follow 
d.  as an example that the Chinese should be able to follow if they manage to expand their economy quickly enough 

81.  The central thesis of this article is that
a.  fulfilled love is an uncreative phenomenon
b.  unfulfilled love is a great pain 
c.  unfulfilled love produces creative results 
d.  unfulfilled love produces infatuation

82.  Which of the following does the writer NOT use to make his case :
a.  example                              b.  quotation from another source

  Passage VII
            Late on shady afternoons, young couples throng to the city’s parks, lakes and boulevards for ice-cream, coffee and courtship. This holiday they are freer and more wealthy than ever before. The rickety Chinese bicycles, nylon pyjamas and green army shirts of just two years ago are gone for the new urban elite.
            Mooching under the trees, they compare jeans, hair gel and Honda Dreams. But the differences are not merely cosmetic. They mark deep and stark changes in a youth once famed for romance and idealism. Take young Kiem, for example. At 22, like thousands of other young men from poor northern provinces, Kiem came to Hanoi to get any sort of work and get rich, wanting to end his family’s reliance on the paddy field forever.
            He followed his childhood sweetheart, Nguyet, to Hanoi. Smart and tall and with long eyelashes and hair to her waist, Nguyet swiftly hopped from job to job, working her way up among Hanoi’s emerging private retailers. As a laborer on hotel building sites, Kiem found he could not compete for her against the smooth-talking traders and entrepreneurs making thousands. “I met Nguyet one day and asked her straight: ‘What is going on?’ She told me straight: ‘You don’t even have a motorbike’,” Kiem said.
            “So I worked and slaved for a year. I finally took a loan as well and got a second-hand motorbike. The first thing I did was ride around to see her. She laughed in my face. My bike was old and slow and also had pedals. It made a lot of smoke, but was still a motorbike. Nguyet just walked away. “But as Kiem is finding, his tale of woe is not unique.
