Most sore throats are caused by an infection which treatment with antibiotics cannot cure. But with simple remedies the patient normally gets better in 4 or 5 days。 Tonsillitis, however, usually starts with a sore throat which causes pain on swallowing。 With children and some adults there may be a fever and the patient is obviously not feeling well. It may be possible to see white spots on the back of the throat. The neck may also swell, both of which are the normal response to infection. Sometimes a sore throat may occur with the common cold, and with influenza there may be dryness of the throat， pain on coughing and loss of voice。TREATMENTAspirin: To help relieve the pain on swallowing and (if there is one) the fever, use aspirin tablets dissolved in water, so that the patient can gargle before swallowing. Repeat the treatment every 4 hours。Drink： Encourage the patient to drink plenty of liquids。 Food: Food should not be forced on a patient who does not want to eat.Steam： If there is pain in the throat on coughing， breathing in steam may help.CHILDREN Young children， who may not be able to gargle， should be given aspirin dissolved in water every 4 hours at the right dose for their age。At one year： a single junior aspirin。At five years： half an adult aspirin。At eight years: one whole adult aspirin。WHEN TO SEE THE DOCTORIf the sore throat is still getting worse after 2 days。If the patient complains of earache.If the patient or parent is very worried.46.

World War II had just ended. Millions of people had died， and there was destruction everywhere。 People hoped they could build a future of world peace through this new organization。 The United Nations has four main goals and purposes: 1。To work together for international peace and to solve international problems。 2.To develop friendly relations among nations。 3。To work together for human rights for everyone of all races， religions, and of both sexes。 4。To build a center where nations can work together for these goals.Today almost every country in the world is a member of the UN. Each country has signed an agreement that says:1。 All members are equal。2. All members promise to solve international problems in a peaceful way。3. No member will use force against another member。4. All members will help the UN in its actions。5。The UN will not try to solve problems within countries except to enforce international peace. Obviously, the United Nations has not been completely successful in its goals. There have been several wars since 1945. However， the organization has helped bring peace to some countries that were at war. It has helped people who left their countries because of wars。 It has helped bring independence to colonies. The main United Nations organization is in New York City, but the UN has a “family” of other related organizations all over the world。 These organizations try to provide a better life for everyone. One example is UNICEF， an organization that provides food， medical care, and many other services for poor children wherever they live. Another example is the World Health Organization， which develops medical programs all over the world。 There are thousands of UN workers in developing countries。 They work as planners to increase production in farming and industry. They provide medical services， improve education programs, and spread scientific information。 They develop programs that provide jobs and better living conditions. They help countries control their population growth。 The United Nations also holds large international conferences, where people meet to discuss important world issues。 One conference was about the uses and ownership of oceans。 Another was about women. There are also International Years. In these special years， people work together to improve situations and solve problems。 One year was the International Year of the Child. For centuries countries have fought each other， and powerful countries have taken control of weaker ones. It is very difficult to persuade nations to live together in peace. Nevertheless， the United Nations is attempting to do this. It is the only organization that unites the world in the search for peace.50。 The United Nations was organized at a meeting in California in 1945。51。 The United Nations works for international peace.52. Kuwait is a member of the UNICEF。53. The United Nations has its main organization in San Francisco.54.

Some are spoken by millions of people。 Other languages have only a few speakers。 All languages have rules for forming words and for ordering those words in sentences. In written languages， meaning is expressed through a system of characters and rules for combining those characters。 In spoken languages， meaning is expressed through a system of sounds and rules for combining those sounds. Many deaf people use sign languages, in which gestures do the work of the sound system of spoken languages. Word order is more important in English than it is in some other languages, such as Russian. The sound system is very important in Chinese and in many languages spoken in West Africa。 Languages are always changing, but they change very slowly. People invent new words for their language, borrow words from other languages， and change the meanings of words as needed. For example， the English word byte was invented by computer specialists in 1959. the English word tomato was borrowed from Nahuatl， and American Indian language spoken in Mexico。 The English word meat once referred to food in general。 There are several major language families in the world. The languages in each family are related, and scientists think they came from the same parent family。 Language families come in different sizes。 The Austronesian family contains at least 500 languages, including Pilipino， Malay， and Maori。 The Basque language, spoken in northern Spain， is the only member of its language family. The Indo-European language family contains 55 languages, including English， German， Spanish， Russian， and Hindi. Another language family is Sino-Tibetan, which includes Chinese, Burmese, and Tibetan。 The AfroAsiatic family includes Arabic， Hebrew, and Amharic。 There are about 150 American Indian languages spoken today。 These languages have many differences and have been divided into more than 50 language families。 People learn languages by listening， copying what they hear, and using the language。 Most children learn their first languages easily, and sometimes other languages as well。 Adults often must work harder at learning a second language.Questions:60。 How many languages are spoken all over the world？61. What are the language rules for?62. How is meaning expressed in sign language?63。 What is more important in English compared with other languages？64. Which language is the only member of its language family?Section D (12 marks)In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary。 Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the spaces， 65-70。 Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet。Questions 6570 are based on the following passage. Welcome to “Software World” - bringing you the very latest information on what is currently available on CD-ROM。 Are you a director or producer looking for an unusual actor to play a part in a new movie project, or with that special look for a new commercial on TV？ OK. The usual procedure would be to contact a theatrical agency, who would try and sell you the idea of using one of the actors listed on their books。 Books？ Too oldfashioned for you？ Then get yourself a copy of this latest electronic database called “The Electronic Curtain”. The brainchild of casting agent Fred Harkney of the Better Talent Agency, he says he got the idea of an actors directory from his son playing computer games. Noting that junior had to type in the details of the characters in his favorite game， he realized he could do the same for the actors he represents。 Eventually， he came to include information on nearly three quarters of the approximately 34，000 actors registered and looking for work in Britain. With some theatrical agencies boasting that they represent over 500 performers, the need for this product is not hard to fathom。 It can be a nightmare trying to remember just which actor has done what, or just what an actor can do. The database lists details of over 5,500 actors： TV shows they have appeared in， special skills they possess - everything down to the color of their eyes and other disti
