The "Square Mile", as the City of London is often called, is, in fact, 677 acres, within which live a mere 6,500 permanent residents, although an additional working population of about 350,000 pours into its offices daily. It is a governing body in its own right, for it has its own Parliament, and even its own police force. Within its perimeter it encloses St. Paul's Cathedral, Guildhall and the Bank of England but not the Tower of London, which was excluded in the 17th century. 25- It's clear from the passage that Londoners ...... .

If he is unlucky, poor or sick, he is bound to bring bad luck, poverty, sickness or all three to the house. In certain parts of the country, the very worst omen used to be the accidental arrival of any woman on the doorstep as the first visitor of the New Year though she was, and still is, acceptable in parts of Scotland and Wales. Normally, however, families choose a suitable man to be the first visitor. This could be a member, or a friend, of the family, who would go out before midnight and come in again immediately after. 31- According to the passage, in English tradition, ...... .

They later imposed a heavy tax on the people's daily beverage, an act which was one of the factors that led to the American War of Independence. In protest against this tax, the colonists dumped a valuable cargo of tea into the Boston Harbour in 1773. Following this, coffee gained popularity as the democratic beverage and a symbol of resistance. American patriots plotted their strategies for independence in the coffeehouses of the colonies. Coffee quickly became the favourite drink of the young nation. It moved west with the pioneers. To this day, coffee ranks as the number two drink among American adults, after plain water. 34- We understand that the tax mentioned in the passage ...... .

Many of them were simply descriptive: Ketil Flatnose, Hallgard Longlegs... . Among the Turkanas of Kenya it is customary to give descriptive names for a very good reason. The Turkanas are a nomadic people, keeping sheep, goats and camels. It is therefore useful for them to be able to recognise people from a long distance away. Hence nicknames such as "Ichang ichang", meaning "crab", to identify someone who takes quick little steps and "hiproll" for a large woman with a swaying walk are common in everyday use. 28- The Vikings, as is related in the passage, ..... .

No country has a general standard of living for everyone, any more than it has an average citizen. We speak of China and india as having very low living standards, but many Chinese live in great luxury, and some of the world's richest men live in India. The size of the average paycheck is no indication of a country's standard of living. The cost of living varies over the world. The man who earns $100 a month in one part of the world may live better than one who is paid $100 a week in another place because his lower wages buy more goods and services to satisfy his needs. 37- The author seems to feel that statistics about what is average ......

A road along the coast, three to four metres wide, was marked with stones or mud walls. The highland roads were narrower but required greater engineering skill. Workmen paved the roads with large flat stones and built retaining walls on the steep hillsides. They hung rope bridges across rivers and canyons and built rest stations at regular intervals along the roads. Because of their superior road system, the Incas maintained an efficient postal service. Runners stationed every few kilometres relayed the messages, which sometimes travelled as much as 250 kilometres a day, making it possible to get a letter from one end of the empire to another in just a few days. 40- The highland roads mentioned in the passage ...... .
