Nasreddin and the Smell of Soup
One day, a poor man, who had only one piece of bread to
eat, was walking past a restaurant. There was a large pot
of soup on the table. The poor man held his bread over
the soup, so the steam from the soup went into the bread,
and gave it a good smell. Then he ate the bread.
The restaurant owner was very angry at this, and he
asked the man for money, in exchange for the steam from
the soup. The poor man had no money, so the restaurant
owner took him to Nasreddin, who was a judge at that
time. Nasreddin thought about the case for a little while.
Then he took some money from his pocket. He held the
coins next to the restaurant owner's ear, and shook them,
so that they made a jingling noise.
"What was that?" asked the restaurant owner.
"That was payment for you," answered Nasreddin.
"What do you mean? That was just the sound of coins!"
protested the restaurant owner.
"The sound of the coins is payment for the smell of the
soup," answered Nasreddin. "Now go back to your
restaurant."

hand.

would get angry.
d. So he didn‟t want
anybody steal his soup.

Questions from 57 through 63
The Death Car
It was a cold night in September. The rain was
drumming on the car roof as George and Marie Winston
drove through the empty country roads towards the house
of their friends, the Harrisons, where they were going to
attend a party to celebrate the engagement of the
Harrisons' daughter, Lisa. As they drove, they listened to
the local radio station, which was playing classical music.
They were about five miles from their destination when
the music on the radio was interrupted by a news
announcement:
"The Cheshire police have issued a serious warning
after a man escaped from Colford Mental Hospital earlier
this evening. The man, John Downey, is a murderer who
killed six people before he was captured two years ago.
He is described as large, very strong and extremely
dangerous. People in the Cheshire area are warned to
keep their doors and windows locked, and to call the
police immediately if they see anyone acting strangely."
Marie shivered. "A crazy killer. And he's out there
somewhere. That's scary."
"Don't worry about it," said her husband. "We're nearly
there now. Anyway, we have more important things to
worry about. This car is losing power for some reason -- it
must be that old problem with the carburetor. If it gets any
worse, we'll have to stay at the Harrisons' tonight and get

it fixed before we travel back tomorrow."
As he spoke, the car began to slow down. George
pressed the accelerator, but the engine only coughed.
Finally they rolled to a halt, as the engine died completely.
Just as they stopped, George pulled the car off the road,
and it came to rest under a large tree.
"Blast!" said George angrily. "Now we'll have to walk in
the rain."
"But that'll take us an hour at least," said Marie. "And I
have my high-heeled shoes and my nice clothes on.
They'll be ruined!"
"Well, you'll have to wait while I run to the nearest
house and call the Harrisons. Someone can come out and
pick us up," said George.
"But George! Have you forgotten what the radio said?
There's a homicidal maniac out there! You can't leave me
alone here!"
"You'll have to hide in the back of the car. Lock all the
doors and lie on the floor in the back, under this blanket.
No-one will see you. When I come back, I'll knock three
times on the door. Then you can get up and open it. Don't
open it unless you hear three knocks." George opened the
door and slipped out into the rain. He quickly disappeared
into the blackness.
Marie quickly locked the doors and settled down under
the blanket in the back for a long wait. She was frightened
and worried, but she was a strong-minded woman. She
had not been waiting long, however, when she heard a
strange scratching noise. It seemed to be coming from the
roof of the car.
Marie was terrified. She listened, holding her breath.
Then she heard three slow knocks, one after the other,
also on the roof of the car. Was it her husband? Should
she open the door? Then she heard another knock, and
another. This was not her husband. It was somebody -- or
something -- else. She was shaking with fear, but she
forced herself to lie still. The knocking continued -- bump,
bump, bump, bump.
Many hours later, as the sun rose, she was still lying
there. She had not slept for a moment. The knocking had
never stopped, all night long. She did not know what to do.
Where was George? Why had he not come for her?
Suddenly, she heard the sound of three or four
vehicles, racing quickly down the road. All of them pulled
up around her, their tires screeching on the road. At last!
Someone had come! Marie sat up quickly and looked out
of the window.
The three vehicles were all police cars, and two still
had their lights flashing. Several policemen leapt out. One
of them rushed towards the car as Marie opened the door.
He took her by the hand.
"Get out of the car and walk with me to the police
vehicle. miss. You're safe now. Look straight ahead. Keep
looking at the police car. Don't look back. Just don't look
back."
Something in the way he spoke filled Marie with cold
horror. She could not help herself. About ten yards from
the police car, she stopped, turned and looked back at the
empty vehicle.
George was hanging from the tree above the car, a
rope tied around his neck. As the wind blew his body back
and forth, his feet were bumping gently on the roof of the
car -- bump, bump, bump, bump.

Questions from 64 through 70
Horse owners who plan to breed one or more mares
should have a working knowledge of heredity and know
how to care for breeding animals and foals. The number of
mares bred that actually conceive varies from about 40 to
85 percent, with the average running less than 50 percent.
Some mares that do conceive fail to produce living foals.
This means that, on average, two mares are kept a whole
year to produce one foal, and even then, some foals are
disappointments from the standpoint of quality.
By careful selection, breeders throughout history have
developed various kinds of horses with a wide variety of
characteristics to suit many different needs. The Great
Horse of the Middle Ages, for example, was bred for size
and strength to carry a heavily armored knight. The
massive horses of such breeds are often called "cold
blooded." The Arabs bred lithe desert horses that were
small and swift. These animals are often referred to as
"hot blooded. " Cross-breeding of hot-blooded and cold-
blooded horses for certain characteristics produced
breeds ranging from riding horses to draft horses.
The Thoroughbred is considered by many to be the
highpoint of elegance and fine selective breeding. Many
persons mistakenly apply the name Thoroughbred to any
purebred horse. But a Thoroughbred is a distinct breed of
running horses that traces its ancestry through the male
line directly back to three Eastern stallions: the Byerly
Turk, the Darley Arabian, and the Godolphin Barb. For
convenience the breeds of horses are often divided into
three major groups: (1) ponies, (2) heavy, or draft horses,
and (3) light horses.
64. Which of the following is not an example of an
Eastern stallion?
a. Byerly Turk b. Darley Arabian
c. Thoroughbred d. Godolphin Barb
65. Which of the following was NOT a characteristic of
the Great Horse of the Middle Ages?
a. Large Size b. Swiftness
c. Strength d. Cold-bloodedness
66. It can be inferred from the passage that cold-
blooded and hot-blooded horses were cross-bred
for what reason?
a. Such cross-breeding
was a safer means of
reproduction.
b. Cross-bred horses were
preferred by Arabs.
c. By cross-breeding,
horses with desirable
mixed characteristics
could be produced.
d. Cross-breeding
produced Thoroughbred
horses.
67. In line 16, "lithe" most nearly means
a. graceful. b. clumsy.
c. massive. d. bulky.
68. Which of the following is NOT one of the major
divisions of horse breeds?
a. Draft horses b. Ponies
c. Foals d. Light horses
69. According to the passage, which of the following
horses is considered to be the finest purebred?
a. Darley Arabian b. Thoroughbred
c. Godolphin Barb d. Byerly Turk
70. To conceive is to
a. become sick. b. become pregnant.
c. die. d. be born.
Questions from 71 through 75
Animals that produce large amounts of offspring depend
upon the sheer size of the litter for the perpetuation of their
species. The young mature very quickly and are not
educated, as the parents are usually involved with
obtaining their own food and with reproduction. Should
some of the offspring become endangered, the parent will
not interfere, because it is not expected that all the young
survive, which is the reason for a large litter.
One animal that produces large litters is the hamster. A
female hamster is able to bear young when she is six
weeks to two months old. The gestation period is about 16
days.
Although an average litter size is from five to ten,
hamsters commonly have as few as three or as many as a
dozen offspring at a time. Mothers will sometimes eat their
own young, particularly when the number of offspring is
large. Females may produce litters up to an age of about
15 months at monthly intervals. The blind, hairless young
begin to grow fur in two to three days. Their eyes open
after about two weeks. After ten days they begin eating
solid food, though the mother will continue to nurse them
for about two more weeks. In captivity, a typical hamster
may live for two to three years.
71. The gestation period for hamsters is about
a. nine months. b. one month.
c. 16 days. d. six weeks.
72. Female hamsters will sometimes eat their young
for what reason?
a. Hunger b. Because of a large
number of offspring
c. Deformed babies d. The young mature too
quickly
73. Female hamsters may reproduce as young as
a. six weeks old. b. six months old.
c. 15 months old. d. two weeks old.
74. "Perpetuation" in line 2 means
a. extinction. b. annihilation.
c. variation. d. continuation.
75. Hamsters can produce offspring until what age?
a. two years b. six weeks
c. 15 months d. 16 days

He was the illegitimate son of a Florentine lawyer and
property owner. His artistic bent obviously appeared at an
early age for when he was 15 he was apprenticed to the
painter Verocchio. In 1472 he was accepted in the
painters‟ guild in Florence, where he remained until 1481.
86 ___________________________________________
And among his early drawings were many sketches of
mechanical apparatus and weapons, evidence of his
interest in, and knowledge of things mechanical.
87. ___________________________________________
His artistic achievements in Milan reached their peak with
the mural „The Last Supper‟ completed in 1497.
88. ___________________________________________
In the 1490s he began monumental treatises on painting,
architecture, human anatomy and mechanics. He set
down his observations on these themes in voluminous
notes and sketches, which he would later assemble in his
notebooks. There remain of his notebooks a prodigious
7000 pages, all in characteristic „mirror-writing‟.
89. ___________________________________________
He then went back to Milan and entered the service of the
French King Louis XII. Later he was to work in Rome with
Raphael and Michelangelo on designs for the new church
of St Peter. In 1516 he settled in France, at Cloux, near
Amboise, where he died three years later.
90. ___________________________________________
He was no mere theorist advancing fanciful ideas. He was
a practical man, who designed things that would work,
because he could see how they would work.
91. ___________________________________________
There is no evidence that Leonardo actually built the
machines and mechanical devices he sketched and
described. And in many cases their practical importance

The rain was drumming on the car roof as George and Marie Winston drove through the empty country roads towards the house of their friends, the Harrisons, where they were going to attend a party to celebrate the engagement of the Harrisons' daughter, Lisa. As they drove, they listened to the local radio station, which was playing classical music. They were about five miles from their destination when the music on the radio was interrupted by a news announcement: "The Cheshire police have issued a serious warning after a man escaped from Colford Mental Hospital earlier this evening. The man, John Downey, is a murderer who killed six people before he was captured two years ago. He is described as large, very strong and extremely dangerous. People in the Cheshire area are warned to keep their doors and windows locked, and to call the police immediately if they see anyone acting strangely." Marie shivered. "A crazy killer. And he's out there somewhere. That's scary." "Don't worry about it," said her husband. "We're nearly there now. Anyway, we have more important things to worry about. This car is losing power for some reason -- it must be that old problem with the carburetor. If it gets any worse, we'll have to stay at the Harrisons' tonight and get
  • 5. ENGLISH PLACEMENT TEST EXAM ID: DATE OF EXAM: PAGINA: 5 de 8 it fixed before we travel back tomorrow." As he spoke, the car began to slow down. George pressed the accelerator, but the engine only coughed. Finally they rolled to a halt, as the engine died completely. Just as they stopped, George pulled the car off the road, and it came to rest under a large tree. "Blast!" said George angrily. "Now we'll have to walk in the rain." "But that'll take us an hour at least," said Marie. "And I have my high-heeled shoes and my nice clothes on. They'll be ruined!" "Well, you'll have to wait while I run to the nearest house and call the Harrisons. Someone can come out and pick us up," said George. "But George! Have you forgotten what the radio said? There's a homicidal maniac out there! You can't leave me alone here!" "You'll have to hide in the back of the car. Lock all the doors and lie on the floor in the back, under this blanket. No-one will see you. When I come back, I'll knock three times on the door. Then you can get up and open it. Don't open it unless you hear three knocks." George opened the door and slipped out into the rain. He quickly disappeared into the blackness. Marie quickly locked the doors and settled down under the blanket in the back for a long wait. She was frightened and worried, but she was a strong-minded woman. She had not been waiting long, however, when she heard a strange scratching noise. It seemed to be coming from the roof of the car. Marie was terrified. She listened, holding her breath. Then she heard three slow knocks, one after the other, also on the roof of the car. Was it her husband? Should she open the door? Then she heard another knock, and another. This was not her husband. It was somebody -- or something -- else. She was shaking with fear, but she forced herself to lie still. The knocking continued -- bump, bump, bump, bump. Many hours later, as the sun rose, she was still lying there. She had not slept for a moment. The knocking had never stopped, all night long. She did not know what to do. Where was George? Why had he not come for her? Suddenly, she heard the sound of three or four vehicles, racing quickly down the road. All of them pulled up around her, their tires screeching on the road. At last! Someone had come! Marie sat up quickly and looked out of the window. The three vehicles were all police cars, and two still had their lights flashing. Several policemen leapt out. One of them rushed towards the car as Marie opened the door. He took her by the hand. "Get out of the car and walk with me to the police vehicle. miss. You're safe now. Look straight ahead. Keep looking at the police car. Don't look back. Just don't look back." Something in the way he spoke filled Marie with cold horror. She could not help herself. About ten yards from the police car, she stopped, turned and looked back at the empty vehicle. George was hanging from the tree above the car, a rope tied around his neck. As the wind blew his body back and forth, his feet were bumping gently on the roof of the car -- bump, bump, bump, bump. 57.Where were the Winstons going when this incident happened? a. Home. b. To Coldform Mental Hospital. c. To a party. d. To a Police Station. 58.What was the reason for the news announcement on the radio? a. Six people, including John Downey, had been murdered. b.

  • 6. ENGLISH PLACEMENT TEST EXAM ID: DATE OF EXAM: PAGINA: 6 de 8 Questions from 64 through 70 Horse owners who plan to breed one or more mares should have a working knowledge of heredity and know how to care for breeding animals and foals. The number of mares bred that actually conceive varies from about 40 to 85 percent, with the average running less than 50 percent. Some mares that do conceive fail to produce living foals. This means that, on average, two mares are kept a whole year to produce one foal, and even then, some foals are disappointments from the standpoint of quality. By careful selection, breeders throughout history have developed various kinds of horses with a wide variety of characteristics to suit many different needs. The Great Horse of the Middle Ages, for example, was bred for size and strength to carry a heavily armored knight. The massive horses of such breeds are often called "cold blooded." The Arabs bred lithe desert horses that were small and swift. These animals are often referred to as "hot blooded. " Cross-breeding of hot-blooded and cold- blooded horses for certain characteristics produced breeds ranging from riding horses to draft horses. The Thoroughbred is considered by many to be the highpoint of elegance and fine selective breeding. Many persons mistakenly apply the name Thoroughbred to any purebred horse. But a Thoroughbred is a distinct breed of running horses that traces its ancestry through the male line directly back to three Eastern stallions: the Byerly Turk, the Darley Arabian, and the Godolphin Barb. For convenience the breeds of horses are often divided into three major groups: (1) ponies, (2) heavy, or draft horses, and (3) light horses. 64. Which of the following is not an example of an Eastern stallion? a. Byerly Turk b. Darley Arabian c. Thoroughbred d. Godolphin Barb 65. Which of the following was NOT a characteristic of the Great Horse of the Middle Ages? a. Large Size b. Swiftness c. Strength d. Cold-bloodedness 66. It can be inferred from the passage that cold- blooded and hot-blooded horses were cross-bred for what reason? a. Such cross-breeding was a safer means of reproduction. b. Cross-bred horses were preferred by Arabs. c. By cross-breeding, horses with desirable mixed characteristics could be produced. d. Cross-breeding produced Thoroughbred horses. 67. In line 16, "lithe" most nearly means a. graceful. b. clumsy. c. massive. d. bulky. 68. Which of the following is NOT one of the major divisions of horse breeds? a. Draft horses b. Ponies c. Foals d. Light horses 69. According to the passage, which of the following horses is considered to be the finest purebred? a. Darley Arabian b. Thoroughbred c. Godolphin Barb d. Byerly Turk 70. To conceive is to a. become sick. b. become pregnant. c. die. d. be born. Questions from 71 through 75 Animals that produce large amounts of offspring depend upon the sheer size of the litter for the perpetuation of their species. The young mature very quickly and are not educated, as the parents are usually involved with obtaining their own food and with reproduction. Should some of the offspring become endangered, the parent will not interfere, because it is not expected that all the young survive, which is the reason for a large litter. One animal that produces large litters is the hamster. A female hamster is able to bear young when she is six weeks to two months old. The gestation period is about 16 days. Although an average litter size is from five to ten, hamsters commonly have as few as three or as many as a dozen offspring at a time. Mothers will sometimes eat their own young, particularly when the number of offspring is large. Females may produce litters up to an age of about 15 months at monthly intervals. The blind, hairless young begin to grow fur in two to three days. Their eyes open after about two weeks. After ten days they begin eating solid food, though the mother will continue to nurse them for about two more weeks. In captivity, a typical hamster may live for two to three years. 71. The gestation period for hamsters is about a. nine months. b. one month. c. 16 days. d. six weeks. 72. Female hamsters will sometimes eat their young for what reason? a. Hunger b. Because of a large number of offspring c. Deformed babies d. The young mature too quickly 73. Female hamsters may reproduce as young as a. six weeks old. b. six months old. c. 15 months old. d. two weeks old. 74. "Perpetuation" in line 2 means a. extinction. b. annihilation. c. variation. d. continuation. 75. Hamsters can produce offspring until what age? a. two years b. six weeks c. 15 months d. 16 days
