Read the following passage and mark A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for
each of the bank from 1 to 10:
Why did you decide to read, and will you keep reading to the end? Do you expect to understand every single part of
it and will you remember anything about it in a fortnight’s (1) _______? Common sense (2) ________ that the
answers to these questions depend on “readability”- whether the (3) _______ matter is interesting, and the argument
clear and the (4) _______ attractive. But psychologists are trying to (5) _______ why people read – and often don’t
read certain things, for example technical information. They also have examined so much the writing as the readers.

the sources of nectar to one another by doing a dance in a figure-eight pattern. The orientation of the dance conveys

the position of the food relative to the sun’s position in the sky, and the speed of the dance tells how far the food
source is from the hive. Most researchers assume that the ability to perform and encode the dance is innate and
shows no special intelligence. But in one study, when experimenters kept changing the site of the food source, each
time moving the food 25 percent father from the previous site, foraging honeybees began to anticipate where the
food source would appear next. When the researchers arrived at the new location, they would find the bees circling
the spot, waiting for their food. No one has yet explained how bees, whose brains weigh four ten-thousandths of an
ounce, could have inferred the location of the new site.
Other behaviors that may indicate some cognition include tool use. Many animals, like the otter who uses a stone to crack
mussel shells, are capable of using objects in the natural environment as rudimentary tools. One researcher has found that mother
chimpanzees occasionally show their young how to use tools to open hard nuts. In one study, chimpanzees compared two pairs of
food wells containing chocolate chips. One pair might contain, say, five chips and three chips, the other four chips and three chips.
Allowed to choose which pair they wanted, the chimpanzees almost always chose the one with the higher total, showing some sort of
summing ability. Other chimpanzees have learned to use numerals to label quantities of items and do simple sums.
