    Functioning mini human brains grown in a lab could helpcure Parkinson’s. It may sound incredible, yet thecreated blobs may help researchers defeat Parkinson’sdisease and other age-related brain conditions. The minibrain is an organoid grown from stem cells to imitate thehuman midbrain, the ‘information superhighway’ of thebrain that controls hearing, vision and movement. Otherresearchers have successfully grown brain tissue in alab, but a team made up of researchers from A StarGenome Institute of Singapore, the Duke-NUS MedicalSchool and the National Neuroscience Institute saytheirs is the first to contain neuromelanin, a darkpigment found within the human brain that is closelylinked to the development of Parkinson’s disease. It alsocontains specialised neurons that produce dopamine, aneurotransmitter involved with motor control as lowlevels of dopamine lead to slowed reactions anddisorders like Parkinson’s. Shawn Je, the leadresearcher of the team, says that their mini-brainorganoids mimic human midbrain development andthat now they can really test how these mini brains reactto existing or newly developed drugs before treatingpatients. This will be a game changer for future drugdevelopment.

    According to the passage, mini human brains mayhelp cure Parkinson’s disease since ----.

    researchers from various institutes worked together todevelop them

    newly produced and available drugs for Parkinson’shave been tested on them

    they have already worked really well on otherage-related brain conditions

    they are organoids grown from stem cells with highlevels of dopamine

    they are like a simulation of our midbrains, whichcontrol some of our senses and movement

    Low levels of dopamine can be related to some otherdisorders along with Parkinson’s disease.

    The presence of neuromelanin can help people withParkinson's disease to recover from the condition.

    Neuromelanin and dopamine are essentialcomponents to produce artificial organs.

    Compared to dopamine, neuromelanin can producemore neurotransmitters that enable motor control.

    Neuromelanin and dopamine cause deterioration inour midbrain, leading to impairment in our reactions.

    What is the author’s primary purpose in thispassage?

    To explain why other researchers have failed toproduce mini brains with neuromelanin

    To inform us about the development of Parkinson’sdisease and other brain conditions

    To illustrate the reasons behind the failure oftreatments for Parkinson’s disease

    The Zapotec are a group of American Indians who livein the state of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. The Zapotechave lived in what is now known as Oaxaca since about1500 BCE. In around 500 BCE, they built their capitalcity known as Monte Alban. This city had flat, step-stylepyramids, temples, and very elaborate and ornatetombs. Like the Zapotec people of today, the earlyZapotec people were farmers. They also made finepottery. In addition to this, they carved writing onto slabsof stone. This was one of the earliest forms of writing inthe Americas. Zapotec lands once stretched from whatis now Puebla – the state north of Oaxaca – to thePacific Ocean. But after around 500 AD, Monte Albanstarted to fall into ruin, and a people called the Mixtectook over the city. The Zapotec started to form a numberof small kingdoms, but these were conquered by theSpanish when they took over the region in the 1500s.

    What is true about the Zapotec people of today?

    They still carve their writing onto slabs of stone.

    They have migrated out of the Oaxaca region towardsPuebla.

    They continue to live in Monte Alban to this day.

    They rely on farming just like their ancestors.

    They are mostly of Spanish descent.

    Many cultures regard dreams as having greatsignificance for the dreamer, either by revealingsomething important about the dreamer’s presentcircumstances or predicting his or her future. TheAustrian psychologist Sigmund Freud analysed thedreams of his patients to understand their unconsciousneeds and desires, and psychotherapists still make useof this technique today. Freud believed that the primaryfunction of dreams was to wish fulfillment, or the ideathat dreaming allows us to act out the desires that wemust repress during the day. Although Freud focused onthe meaning of dreams, other theories about the causesof dreams are less concerned with their content. Onepossibility is that we dream primarily to help withconsolidation, or the moving of information intolong-term memory. Rauchs and Desgranges found thatrats that had been deprived of REM sleep, the sleepstage in which dreaming occurs, after learning a newtask were less able to perform the task again than ratsthat had been allowed to dream, and these differenceswere greater on tasks that involved learning unusualinformation or developing new behaviours.

    It can be understood from the passage that Freudbelieved that dreams ----.

    could help one recall past memories with moreaccuracy

    contributed to the prediction of patients' wishes morethan their desires

    were about wishes people had to suppress while theywere awake

    that occurred during REM sleep were easilyinterpreted

    should be examined for the reasons behindthem rather than for their content

    What can be concluded from Rauchs andDesgranges’s studies?

    They focused their studies more on the use ofinformation in dreams of rats.

    They found that rats were only able to learn a newtask during REM sleep.

    They discovered that when rats learned a new task,dreaming helped them successfully recall the new tasklater on.

    They showed the differences between rats thatlearned common information and those thatlearned unusual information.

    They found that dreaming resulted in poorperformance in different tasks in rats.

    The main purpose of this passage is to ----.

    inform readers about the effects of dreaming

    encourage readers to analyse their dreams

    explain the Freudian approach to dream analysis

    give information about different theories of dreams

    refute critical theories about the functions of dreaming

    Adam: I don't understand how meditation has become so

    popular and is practised everywhere fromhospitals to schools.

    Jennifer: ----

    Adam: Yeah, you're right, all you need is a comfortable

    posture and wish for self-transformation anddesire for others' well-being.

    Jennifer: Of course the beneficial psychological effects can

    also be the reason.

    It may be because it is derived from various branchesof Buddhism.

    Because scientists proved that its practitioners areless prone to stress.

    I think it’s very easy to practise, I mean no equipmentand workout is needed.

    You know, meditation also leads to some physiologicalchanges in the brain.

    Especially three types that developed throughBuddhism are very commonly practised.

    Car makers are looking for ways of reusing metaland plastic parts instead of throwing them awaywhen a car is scrapped.

    It is essential for car manufacturers to make use ofmetal and plastic parts from old cars before their totalremoval.

    Metal and plastic parts from unused cars should betaken advantage of, according to car manufacturers.

    Before cars are disposed of, all their parts, whethermetal or plastic, can be re-used by car manufacturersin many ways.

    Utilisation of metal and plastic parts without wastingthem when a car is discarded is what carmanufacturers are attempting to achieve.

    What makes recycling significant for carmanufacturers is that most car parts, including metaland plastic ones, are used again.

    A scientist at Japan’s Osaka University built arobot for one purpose: to pretend to listen to you.When two or more are placed together, they willsimulate people having a conversation. If a humanattempts to join in, the robots will smile, nod, andrespond to comments by saying things like "I see"or "interesting point". They will not actuallyunderstand what has been said, but will appear to.---- But the motivation behind the robot was to tryand model the subtle body language and politeniceties that are so important to conversation.

    This is, of course, an entirely pointless achievement.

    Robots that seem more ‘human’ and less intimidatingare being built.

    Equally important for roboticists is an understanding ofhuman psychology.

    The team hope to make robots with more realisticbehaviours.

    There must be a balance between the psychologicaland the scientific when building a robot.

    Forests, conserved land, and natural habitats arenot important just for the sake of saving trees andanimals. Forests and all greenery are important inkeeping the climate in check. Plants take in thecarbon in the atmosphere and give back oxygen,and older trees hold on to that carbon, storing it forthe duration of their lives. By taking in carbondioxide, they are reducing the greenhouse effect. ---- And now, deforestation is responsible for abouta quarter of greenhouse gas emissions.

    In other words, greenhouse gases trap heat in theEarth’s atmosphere, which increases global averagetemperature.

    Unfortunately, many of the world’s forests have beencut down to make way for farmland, highways, andcities.

    Yet, some countries have chosen sustainabledevelopment plans instead of economic plans thatwould produce greenhouse gases.

    In fact, it is not only the trees and oceans that storecarbon, soil does, too, and by exposing the carbon tothe oxygen in the air, it helps to produce carbondioxide.

    Although the soil on a treeless hillside washes away ina mudslide, a tree-covered hillside’s soil stays put.

    Children’s furniture stresses the social position ofthe child in relation to both the environment and toadults. ---- The very existence of children’s furniturepromotes the child’s position because it is theproperty of the child and it also physically occupiesspace – a choice that excludes other furniture andreflects a priority, stressing the child’s socialimportance. If a child has a piece of furniture of hisor her own, this acknowledges the status and rankof the child. The special form of children’s furnituresignals that childhood is considered an importantperiod.

    Furniture made especially for children is not a modernphenomenon but has existed independent of the waysin which adult views of children have changed.

    Having an individual piece of furniture for children indicates the child's status and the right to status insociety.

    Children’s furniture has historically been defined notjust by scale but also by aesthetic purposes.

    The design of children’s furniture is influenced byperiod, material, form, function, pedagogical views,and children’s games and status.

    Of the children’s furniture that has survived fromearlier periods, chairs tend to show the most variety.

    Following the last Ice Age, humans had to adapttheir diet and ways of life.

However,other food sources, such as shellfish, smallmammals, and freshwater fish, could be found allyear round.

    Bones and shells recovered from archaeological sitesare the most obvious remains of whathunter-gatherers ate.

    In some favoured regions, early humans could remainin one location with abundant resources.

    Hunter-gatherers in warmer areas often huntedgazelle, the most common mammal in the region.

    In most regions, some foods were available in differentplaces at certain times of year.

It is found in a wide variety ofproducts, including coffee, tea, soft drinks, candy,and desserts. Caffeine acts as a mood enhancer andprovides energy. ---- When heavy coffeedrinkers reduce their caffeine intake, for example,they often report being irritable, restless, anddrowsy, as well as experiencing strong headaches,and these symptoms may last up to a week.

    While most experts feel that consuming small amountsof caffeine during pregnancy is safe, larger amounts ofcaffeine can be harmful to the foetus.

    It causes accelerated heart and breathing rates, andincreases in blood sugar accompanied by decreasesin appetite, thus it is used to stay awake and controlweight.
