  13. 2 5 4 Sports ▶Reading Comprehension 'Spider Girl‘ Kim Ja-in, 22, young and charming, is just like any other college girls in their early twenties. But like her nickname ‘Spider Girl,’ she has a special talent in climbing. Kim has been long regarded as the best female climber in Korea and in Asia as well. She established herself in the international level by winning the International Federation of Sport Climbing Climbing World Cup 2009 held in Brno, Czech Republic last November. She started climbing at the age of nine. Behind Kim’s success is her constant practice. Now, she climbs for four hours everyday. Her legs are full of bruises and her fingers are constantly taped and bandaged due to injuries she gets from hitting the holds on a 15m artificial rock wall. ”I had a rough year two years ago because of continuing injuries. Once you’re injured, you’re unable to practice and compete as much as you want to. So I always try to be careful,” she said. She says, although not many people know about sports climbing, it is a fascinating event. “I hope to make climbing more popular in Korea,” the climber says. “You feel like you are becoming one with the climbing wall, and I love that feeling of togetherness.” Kim is currently ranked second in world rankings. She is now aiming to produce good results in the next IFSC Climbing Worldcup to be held in Switzerland this May. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 11 -

She must deal with her mysterious uncle who shows up after the death of her father. Firth plays the girl’s uncle, while Kidman takes the role of her mother, according to reports. Details about the roles for the movie will be announced by this month. ”Stoker” is also making headlines as the script was written by Wentworth Miller, popular among Korean fans for his role in the famous TV series “Prison Break.” Park is expected to start shooting the film by this summer.

  19. 2 5 6 Issue & Debate ▶Reading Comprehension Courses Lectured in All English English-lectured classes have become prevalent in the nation’s top universities including the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology in recent years. However, with the recent serial suicide cases of students at KAIST, criticism over implementing all-English lectured courses as part of the school’s policies is mounting. Opponents emphasize that they should not force students to take all-English classes and study in English. It gives too much stress and burden to students and teachers who have to prepare for lectures in English. They also say that it is important for students to have pride in their mother tongue by studying in Korean and Korean students should learn to speak and write in Korean more perfectly. In addition, well-trained competitive human resources in the era of globalization cannot be nurtured simply by teaching and learning different subjects in English. On the other hand, some students and graduates say that it is useful since they can be in an English-only environment by studying, thinking, and doing required assignments even though they are not in a foreign country. They also point out bearing the burden of studying in English rests on the shoulders of students since they choose and come to study in universities conducting lectures in English. Additionally, English is a must in Korean society nowadays not only in schools, but also at work. Therefore, English lectures can help students upgrade their English level and get familiar with English as they start working after graduating from university. English lectures have been offered in all classes offered at KAIST since the incumbent president Suh Nam-pyo came into office in 2006 to upgrade the competitiveness and internationalization of students and faculty members. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 17 -

  22. 2 5 7 History ▶Reading Comprehension Introduction of the Jury System For many centuries in England, it had been regarded as the king's duty to see that justice was done and every freeman in the land had the right to appeal to the king if he believed himself to be wronged. Such pleas had to be presented to the king in person, but matters of lesser importance could be taken to the sheriff, who was empowered to make a decision in the king’s name. Under this system, a man accused of a criminal act was tried by the local sheriff, and he could not always be sure of a fair and impartial hearing. Many sheriffs were open to bribery, and this meant that the man who could pay the most could be sure of the verdict, whether or not he was guilty. King Henry made changes to the old system by transferring the sheriff’s chief judicial powers to barons on circuit. Since they were constantly travelling around the country, they were less likely to have local interests. They were unlikely to be open to corruption. Henry devised a system of writs for those whose land was seized by an overlord during the civil wars. A writ was a royal command which restored to a freeman lands which had been forcibly seized from him. The writ commanded the sheriff to order the overlord of any seized land to restore it at once to its rightful owner. The writ also ordered the sheriff to summon 12 free and lawful men of the neighborhood to recognize and declare before the king’s judges who had the rightful possession. These 12 men, called jurymen, were men who were experienced in questions of this kind and who had special knowledge of the circumstances of the claim. The system of jurymen was extended to criminal justice. These 12 ordinary men heard the facts of a case presented and were required to determine whether the facts were true or not. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 20 -

  25. 2 5 8 Places In The News ▶Reading Comprehension The Libyan Protests Influenced by Jasmine and Egyptian revolutions, on January 13 this year, an anti-government protest took place in Benghazi, Libya. Its goal as a pro-democracy protest was to demand the resignation of Libyan leader, Muammar Gaddafi and the release of political prisoners. The Libyan protests have developed into a civil war. Located by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, Libya faces Egypt to the east, Sudan to the southeast, Chad and Niger to the south, and Algeria and Tunisia to the west. Its capital city is Tripoli. Benghazi is the second city of Libya. In Libya, there are about five hundred tribes. Three tribes of them account for one third of the nation’s population. One of the three is the Gaddafa tribe. Gaddafi is the leader of the Gaddafa tribe. Gaddafi had kept his power strong, getting rid of his enemies. But through these protests, the leaders of the other two tribes demanded that Gaddafi step down because he broke a cooperative system, sliding into civil war. All tribes in Libya have united against Gaddafi. Libyan people have suffered from tyranny, high unemployment, and the gap between the rich and the poor under Gaddafi’s 41-year hold on power. Nobody predicts Libya’s future as of now. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 23 -

  28. 2 5 9 TOEFL Reading ▶Reading Comprehension Post-it Notes It is believed by many that successful inventions are made possible through careful planning, research, development and a number of laboratory experiments. However, sometimes, amazing things are made available by accident. Post-it Notes were invented by the 3M Company in Minnesota in the 1970s. Some researchers were working on different types of adhesives. During their research, they developed a weak adhesive, a compound of acrylate copolymer microspheres. They asked themselves if they could use this type of adhesive. They discovered that this weak adhesive could be reused. It could be applied to a piece of paper to use as a bookmark that would stay in place in a book. It could also be attached to a report that was to be sent to a colleague with a request for comments on the report. The colleague could make his comments on the paper attached to the report and return the report. The piece of paper could be easily removed because of the weak adhesive. The company decided that it would carry out a test of the newly invented product in four American cities in 1977. Sales of the new product in test cities were not very successful because it was not familiar to people. The sales staff did not give up. They wanted to give it another try. They made a final attempt in the city of Boise. To introduce the innovative product, the salesmen gave demonstrations of the product in offices throughout Boise and gave away free samples of the product. A week later, they came back to the offices where they gave demonstrations of the product and gave away free sample of the product. A number of office workers were interested in purchasing the product, having noted how useful the innovative pieces of paper could be. The company understood the huge potential of the new product and developed a wide variety of Post-it products. More than 400 types of Post-it products in different colors, shapes and sizes have been developed over the past few decades. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 26 -

  31. 2 5 10 Economy ▶Reading Comprehension Productivity Productivity refers to the amount of output per unit of input. In other words, it is the amount of product created by one unit of a given factor of production over a certain period of time. The term expresses the marginal relationship of inputs to outputs and measures the economic efficiency of production. Productivity indicators ordinarily relate output to a single factor of production, creating measures like labor productivity, capital productivity, and land productivity. Productivity can be measured by quantity of output per time spent or numbers of the employed. Input can be labor, equipment or capital while output is product. When a factory makes its product, it requires raw materials, machines and labor. For example, to make a pencil, a factory requires wood and lead (raw materials), machines and workers. When the factory makes 100 pencils per hour, it can be said the factory productivity is 100. Similarly, if the factory makes 100 pencils per worker, it can be said the factory productivity is 100. These are most commonly used measures, measures of labor productivity. Productivity has a close relationship with a country’s material standard of living. When labor productivity rose in the American car industry during the 1920s, it took fewer and fewer hours to assemble a Model T at a Ford factory. Due to the rise in labor productivity, the price of automobiles fell, and the standard of living of Americans increased. This was reflected in the number of cars registered in the country, which rose from 6.7 million in 1919 to 23.1 million in 1929. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 29 -

  43. 2 6 4 Sports ▶Reading Comprehension Rivera Records No. 602 Save New York Yankees' closer Mariano Rivera rewrote the history of Major League Baseball by earning his 602nd save of his career on September 19. Rivera retired Trevor Plouffe, Michael Cuddyer and Chris Parmelee in the 9th inning to secure the Yankees’ 6-4 win over the Minnesota Twins, breaking Trevor Hoffman’s record of 601 saves. “I think it shows what he means to baseball and what he’s done,” said Yankees manager Joe Girardi, praising his best choice player for the last inning of a winning game. Born in 1969 in Panama, the right-handed pitcher joined the Yankees organization in 1990. He made his major league debut in 1995. He started his career in the major league level as a starting pitcher, but converted to a relief pitcher and became the Yankees’ closer in 1997. Since then, he has established himself as one of the best closers in baseball history. Rivera is not the type of pitcher with a variety of pitches. In fact, he mostly uses only one type of pitch, cut fastball. Most batters facing Rivera know what’s coming and they have seen it for years. But still, it is good enough to make the 41-year-old stand dominant on the mound and close the game. Rivera marked 602 saves in 674 games. In his 17-year-career, he helped the Yankees win five World Series champion titles and Rivera has been selected as All Star 12 times. Rivera is expected to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame after retirement. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 41 -

  46. 2 6 5 Culture ▶Reading Comprehension ‘Please Look after Mom’ Boom Famed Korean novelist Shin Kyung-sook’s bestseller “Please Look After Mom,” translated into English is now a sensation, capturing the hearts of overseas readers. The book has been listed in the bestselling books list of Amazon.com and in the U.S. market since its debut in early April. First published in Korean in November 2008, the book sold more than 1.7 million copies in Korea. The book has created a boom of “mother syndrome” in Korea. Stage adaptations of the book and other literary works on mother were also produced. ”Please Look After Mom” tells the story of an old mother living in a rural area. She comes to Seoul with her husband to celebrate their birthdays with their children. However, she goes missing in a busy subway station in the big city. The story is unfolded as the family members including the eldest daughter, the eldest son, and the husband take turns and tell about the mother. Shin’s success comes from the writer’s touch of the theme “mom” that appeals to the readers around the world.

  49. 2 6 6 Issue & Debate ▶Reading Comprehension Jeju Naval Base Row Tension mounts in the resort island of Jeju as conflicts over the planned construction of a new naval base in the island escalate. Some hundreds of residents and civic organization activists held rallies, protesting against the plan. In 2007, the Navy decided to build a new base by 2014 near Gangjeong Village in the southern part of the nation’s largest island. The 480,000-square-meter base can accommodate 20 warships and serve as the home for the strategic mobile fleet composed of Aegis destroyers, frigates, submarines, and anti-submarine Lynx helicopters. Government and naval officials claim that the base is not only crucial for military operations but also important for the local economy. Capable of holding two 150,000-ton cruise liners, the base can increase tourism profits of the island, they say. ”We’re confident that the Jeju base will have many positive effects on the island in terms of tourism, commerce, as well as job creation,” said an official. On the other hand, residents and civic groups strongly oppose the Navy’s plan, claiming that the construction will cause environmental problems, destroying the eco-system and ruining the beautiful island. They point out the possible use of the base by the U.S. Navy for joint operations and various training exercises, raising military tensions in the region. Citing the case of Japanese island Okinawa hosting American troops including U.S. marines, they are also concerned that it can cause various problems including crimes and pollution. Moreover, they argue that the new base won’t bring economic benefits to residents as suggested by the government, also citing the case of Okinawa with stagnant economy. As clashes between law enforcement authorities and residents and civic organization members get fierce, experts call for more efforts by the government to finetune for a consensus on the issue. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. - 47 -
