The Singapore Science Centre is located on a six-hectare site in Jurong. At the centre, we can discover
the wonders of science and technology in a fun way. Clap your hands and colorful bulbs will light up. Start
a wheel spinning and it will set off a fan churning. It is a place to answer our curiosity and capture our
imagination.
The centre features over four hundred exhibits covering topics like solar radiation, communication,
electronics, mathematics, nuclear energy and evolution. It aims to arouse interest in science and technology
among us and the general public. The centre is the first science one to be established in South East Asia. It
was opened in 1977 and it now receives an average of one thousand, two hundred visitors a day. The
exhibits can be found in four exhibition galleries. They are the Lobby, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences and
Aviation. These exhibits are renewed annually so as to encourage visitors to make return visits to the centre.
Instead of the usual “Hands off” notices found in exhibition halls, visitors are invited to touch and feel
the exhibits, push the buttons, turn the cranks or pedals. This is an interesting way to learn science even if
you hate the subject. A Discovery Centre was built for children between the ages of three and twelve. This
new exhibition gallery was completed in 1985. Lately this year a stone-age exhibit was built. It shows us
about the animals and people which were extinct.

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 following questions.
A survey into the media habits of teenagers in the USA reveals some surprising statistics. The average
teenager spends an incredible eleven hours each day on their mobile phones, computers, games consoles or
TVs. That's more hours than they are awake outside school time! How are they able to do this? The answer,
of course, is multitasking.
The results of the survey came as no surprise to fifteen-year-old participant Jake Kendall. He told
researchers that he multitasked every second that he was online. He said that he was completing their survey
at the same time as watching a TV show, chatting to friends online and reading reviews of the latest film
releases. For sixteen year-old Marisa Sanchez, the survey simply confirmed the facts. She said that she had
watched two hours of TV in the three hours since the end of school, and also researched her homework
about volcanoes, played an online game for two hours, and arranged her weekend plans by texting friends.
Some experts are worried about the survey results. Sylvia de Lupis of the Family Action Institute
told our reporter that teenagers would have difficulties because of their multitasking habits. She added that,
as adults, they would struggle to focus their attention. However, Dr. Michael Rich from the Center on
Media and Child Health said that worries about multitasking had become pointless a long time ago, and that
high levels of media use were now a part of young people's environment, 'like the air that they breathe, the
water that they drink and the food that they eat'.

Question 44: Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The Art of Multitasking: A to Z for Teens
B. Teens: More Media Use Than Hours in The Day
C. Teens: Learning through Media
D. Multitasking of Teens' Everyday Life
Question 45: According to paragraph 1, which device may not be used daily by teens?
A. televisions B. game consoles C. phones D. e-book readers
Question 46: The word “reviews" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______________.
A. plots B. discussions C. complaints D. comments
Question 47: The word "they" in paragraph 3 refers to __________
A. adults B. difficulties C. teenagers D. habits
Question 48: The word “pointless" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _________
A. ineffective B. useful C. invaluable D. worthless
Question 49: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. An average teen in America spends nearly half a day using media.
B. Frequent media use is possibly a matter of course to young people.
C. Marisa Sanchez could complete her school assignment and relax at the same time.
D. Dr. Michael Rich expected teenagers to get distracted due to multitasking.
Question 50: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Young people should concentrate on only one medium at a time.
B. Jake Kendall and Marisa Sanchez got good academic results.
C. Family Action Institute must work to stop multitasking.
D. Youngsters' multitasking habits in media use meet with mixed reactions from the public.
