One of Shakespeare's most lasting impressions on civilisation is usually forgotten his influence on the English language. When Shakespeare wrote his plays, there were no dictionaries and almost no grammar, no standards of spelling or pronunciation. Well-educated men spelt the same word in different ways, and often pronounced it differently. The exact meanings of many words were as unsettled as grammar and spelling, and there were no English words for many ideas which are taken for granted today. New words and new expressions were being taken from other languages or invented for the English language. When the language was in such a state of development, it could be influenced for good or bad more easily than it can now. It is fortunate that at such a time, a writer like Shakespeare was writing plays which became popular. 28- The author believes that Shakespeare ..... . A) was the most famous playwright of his time B) was admired by his contemporaries due to his ability to spell difficult words C) became so famous due partly to his influential work as an educator D) invented a lot of new words for the English language E) helped with the improvement of the English language 29- The passage gives us the information that in Shakespeare's time, ..... A) only the well-educated people could spell English correctly B) English contained fewer words and hardly any rules about how to use them C) it was more difficult to pronounce English words than it is today D) there were few writers as good with the language as Shakespeare was E) most writers preferred to write in foreign languages

30- The author's aim in writing this passage is to remind the reader ..... A) how Shakespeare became popular in the absence of other playwrights B) the stages through which the English language improved C) that the English language survived thanks to Shakespeare D) of something Shakespeare is not usually remembered for E) that Shakespeare was fortunate to live when people were so illiterate

While the traditional English breakfast of two eggs, bacon, sausage, butter and toast is extremely unhealthy, new research shows that eggs are better for you than has been thought.

The year of the Spanish expulsion of the Jews 1492 happens to be the same year that Columbus 'discovered' America. This may be more than coincidence. History records that Columbus was financed by the Spanish king and queen, but many historians theorise that much of the money actually came from Spanish Jews, who sought an alternate homeland. Apparently, some thought that the lost tribe of Israel would be found at Colurnbus's destination. Accordingly, each ship carried one Jewish sailor who was fluent in Hebrew to act as a translator when the lost tribe was found. In fact, it is stated that one of these translators was on the boat that first rowed ashore in the New World to greet the Indians in person. Unfortunately, his 'shalom' was answered with a rain of arrows. 37- The author seems to be suggesting that Spanish Jews ..... . A) were actually wealthier than the king and queen of Spain B) persuaded Columbus to look for the lost tribe of Israel C) were the greatest stimulation behind Colurnbus's voyage D) may have financed Colurnbus's voyage E) escaped from Spain on Colurnbus's ships 38- It is clear from the passage that in 15th-century Spain, ...... . A) a lot of historians were searching for the lost tribe of Israel B) Jews were in general regarded highly in society C) there were people who believed Columbus would find the lost tribe of Israel D) there was a massive Jewish emigration to America E) Jews constituted a considerable part of the population 39- The passage implies that 'shalom' .... . A) is a Hebrew word that is used for greeting people B) means 'arrow' in the language used by the natives in the New World C) comes into modern Hebrew from a similar Spanish word D) is a Spanish word meaning something like 'be careful' E) is a word that is associated with hostility in the Indian language

fact, the use of human bodies for this purpose was forbidden. Instead, it was done to find the source of criminal actions. It wasn't until 1505, when the magistrates of Edinburgh, Scotland, granted the city's Guild of Surgeons and Barbers permission to dissect one executed criminal a year, that the study of anatomy was legally done. In 1 540, the allotment was increased to four a year for further and better knowledge, insight and instruction in the field of surgery. Many years later, it became common practice to add dissection onto the death sentence of a convicted criminal. 40- We can assume from the passage that in the 1200s in Italy, people believed that .... .

A) was a method of execution used for the most brutal crimes B) can be done equally skilfully both by surgeons and by barbers C) is the cutting apart of a dead body to obtain information about the human anatomy D) was believed to be the only way to prevent criminals from breaking the law E) is only legal today if it is carried out on people who were executed 43-45. sorular verilen paraya gre cevaplaynz. Heinrich Schliemann's story is quite extraordinary. The son of a poor churchman in Germany, he was brought up on tales of the ancient world.
