Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
In September of last year, I joined a tour group and visited several Kenyan national parks on a tour that lasted about two weeks. It was an absolutely exhilarating experience. The awe-inspiring wildlife, pristine natural settings, and warm interactions with the local people seemed to affect everyone, even the most jaded of tourists. [I]
We saw an impressive array of wildlife at the Maasai Mara National Reserve-lions, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, giraffes, elephants, and many more. [II] Most of us were initially rather apprehensive to be in such close proximity to the animals, but slowly grew to appreciate the intimate experience. A woman screamed when a large lion came up to our minibus and started to lick the window. Our driver just laughed and said we had nothing to worry about-the lion was just offering his car-wash services. This calmed the woman down and she giggled along with the rest of us at his jokes.
At Amboseli National Park, we had our first encounter with the Maasai people. [III] This famous warrior tribe still lives a semi-nomadic lifestyle, meaning they move around from time to time in search of food, water, and grazing land for their cattle. We were invited to one of their villages to learn more about their traditional culture and practices, and to browse and buy handmade jewelry made from small colorful glass beads. The villagers were exceptionally friendly and gregarious, and we were made to feel very welcome.
On our last day in Amboseli, our tour guide had a special surprise-a group of Maasai were to perform traditional dances and songs for us. They sang without the accompaniment of any musical instruments and created wonderfully intricate music just by harmonizing their voices. The Maasai dancers were very vigorous, with the men leaping high in the air. These dances are considered a ritual among the men to display their strength: the higher the jump, the stronger the warrior. Some people in our group joined in, dancing and leaping with the Maasai, but of course none of us could jump as high as them! The memory of the wonderful performance stayed with us long after the trip. [IV]

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), global demand for meat has increased over 500 percent in the past 50 years. Two things explain this: the Earth’s population is rising rapidly, and people with higher incomes tend to consume more meat.
If meat production rises to match demand, the consequences could be catastrophic for the planet. Thirty percent of Earth’s entire land surface – a massive 70 percent of all land available for agricultural use – is used for raising livestock.
Fortunately, food scientists have been anticipating this need for change. They are working on some interesting alternatives to current methods of meat production. A group of Dutch scientists are engineering meats that can be grown in laboratories. This involves using cells taken from cows to grow “muscle” that can be mixed with other things to make beef.
They say that this process could reduce the amount of energy and land needed to raise cattle by about 40 percent. Twenty other scientists from the United States and China are working to create “meaty” flavors from mushrooms, which could be used to flavor foods. They feel people can detect chemical flavors, and that natural flavors are better for the body.
For now, lab-grown meat is not a threat to traditional farming. Although scientists say that their beef could be ready for testing (and eating) soon, large-scale manufacturing won’t be possible for another ten years. It’s far too exorbitant to develop in large quantities – the Dutch team will spend over $200,000 making enough meat for one burger – and not everyone will be keen on the idea of eating lab-grown meat. While the general public isn’t quite ready to accept “fake” meat, the day will come when we may not have a choice.
Question 16. In paragraph 2, the word “catastrophic” is closest in meaning to ________.
A. beneficial
B. unnecessary
C. unattractive
D. disastrous
Question 17. In paragraph 4, the word “exorbitant” is opposite in meaning to __________.
A. prohibitive
B. efficient
C. affordable
D. extortionate
Question 18. In the first line of paragraph 3, the word “They” refers to __________.
A. methods
B. incomes
C. scientists
D. consequences
Question 19. Which of the following best paraphrases the final sentence of the text?
A. Even if consumers are hesitant about “fake” meat now, they might one day find themselves with no other option.
B. The general public may currently accept “fake” meat; however, a time could arrive when no alternative remains.
C. Because people are not yet fully prepared to embrace so-called “fake” meat, there is less likelihood that it becomes unavoidable.
D. “Fake” meat is widely accepted by the public, so the future may force us to adopt it whether we like it or not.
Question 20. Based on the text, which of the following statements can be inferred?
A. Environmental stability is incompatible with current meat production trends.
B. Technological advancements have already made factory farming obsolete today.
C. Global meat demand is driven primarily by cultural shifts in Western nations.
D. Natural mushroom flavorings are considered safer than laboratory-grown cells.
Question 21. Which paragraph discusses the specific percentage of land used for animal agriculture?
A. Paragraph 3
B. Paragraph 1
C. Paragraph 2
D. Paragraph 4
Question 22. Which paragraph mentions the specific financial cost of producing a single lab-grown burger?

B. Paragraph 1
C. Paragraph 4
D. Paragraph 2
Question 23. According to paragraph 3, which of the following is NOT mentioned as a focus of scientific research?

B. Developing new plant-based feed to make traditional cows grow faster.
