( ID: 104112 ) 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.
Ever since humans inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of
communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral
speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign
language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute
have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very
picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or
unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A
nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots
read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture
signs also guide, warn, and instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques
also express human thoughts and feelings.

Health is considered to be the most valuable thing one possesses. And the simplest,
cheapest, but the most effective way to better one‟s health is doing regular exercise. One
advantage of doing exercise is to reduce stress. Doing regular exercise helps the body produce
happy chemicals that make the exercisers reduce the worries about life and work as well as
forget the boredom and unhappiness. Another benefit exercising brings us is that we will feel
more energetic to face and overcome our daily difficulties. Doing exercise helps us reduce the
possibilities of being ill, protects us from some fatal diseases as heart disease, cancers and
diabetes. Regular exercisers are believed to have healthier, happier and longer lives. The other
good thing is that doing exercise helps us feel more self-confident. We know exactly what we
can do or what abilities, talents we have. We will think positively, do confidently, and lead an
optimistic life if we practice exercising regularly. Controlling our weight effectively is another
value. Perspiration occurs when we exercise, which helps our bodies get rid of bad things inside.
Fats are burnt during our practicing exercise, which helps us to keep fit. To sum up, doing
exercise enables people to have good body-buildings, keep fit and brings exercisers many
benefits. Sparing time doing exercise will ensure us a longer, healthier and happier life.
