23161 . Read the passage and answer the questions that follow. The primary purpose of education is to make our lives easy and beautiful in all aspects. However, if we analyze the actions done and the endeavours undertaken by the educated people of all times, we find that those have not always been beneficial to humankind; some have even threatened the existence of human beings. Thus, education at many times has failed to serve its primary purposes. Why does it happen? Education gives us knowledge and skills, and eventually provides us with power. This power sometimes turns us into monsters and, sometimes, angels because the power of education can be used both for good and evil purposes depending on the intention of its users. The wars, for example, that took the lives of billions of innocent people were waged and executed by the educated people. Heinous scams and horrific incidents of corruption were also committed by the individuals having high academic degrees from world famous institutions. So, education does not always guarantee beauty and ennoble us unless it is imbued with morality, ethics and humanity. Choose the most suitable title for the passage.
- A. Benefits of education
- B. Bad effects of education
- C. Reconsidering the objectives of education
- D. Importance of education for human beings

23170 . Read the following passage and choose the alternative (A,B,C or D) to answer the questions (1-7): Culture is the cultivation of a plant or garden, not the eradication of its roots, it is an (L1) Understanding of the roots and seeds, their patient care and instructed nourishment, nor is it art, still less is the acquaintance with literature and art. By culture, (L3) one means first of all what the anthropologists mean, the way of life of a particular people (L4) living together in one place. That culture is made visible in their arts, in their social system, in (L5) their habits and customs, in their religion. It is and aggregate of customsinstitutions, manners, (L6) standards, testes, morals and beliefs. Now, these are transmitted rather by the family than by (L7) the school , hence when family life fails to play is part, we must expect our culture to (L8) deteriorate (L9) It is a delusion to think that the maladies of the modern world can be put right by a system of (L10) instruction. on the contrary, universal education, by lowering standards, morals and tastes to (L11) a common denominator and by sharpening the wits rather than disciplining character, tends to (L12) break down existing cheeks and balances. Education should be the drawing forth of potential (L13) values, it should not be the destruction of the safeguards that tradition place around young (L14) egos naturally inclined to wilful and precarious flights.

23173 . Read the following passage and answer the questions 'Bacteria' is the common name of a very large group of one-celled microscopic organism that, we believe, may be the smallest, simplest, and perhaps even the very first form of cellular life that evolved on earth. That is why they are observable only under a microscope. There are three main types of bacteria, which are classified according to their shape. The bacilli are a group of bacteria that occur in the soil and air. They are shaped like rods. If we look at them under a microscope, we find them in motion, they always seem to be rolling or tumbling under the microscope. These bacilli are largely responsible for food spoilage. There is another group of bacteria who tend to grow in chains. They are referred to as the cocci group. A common example of this type is streptococci that causes strep throat. Finally, there is the spiral shaped bacteria called spirilla. They look a little like corkscrews, and they are responsible for a number of diseases in humans. Some species of bacteria cause diseases, but mostly bacteria live harmlessly on the skin, in the mouth, and the intestines. In fact, bacteria are very helpful to researchers. Bacterial cells resemble the cells of other life forms in many ways, and may be studied to give us insights. What is the topic of this passage?
- A. Three major types of bacteria
- B. How microscopic organisms are measured
- C. How bacteria is used for research in genetics
- D. Diseases caused by bacteria
