accuracy as you go. 
------------·--
Read the passage and answer the multiple-choice question. 
After years of focusing on the bad-and there are still legitimate concerns, for 
instance, about the psychological effects of certain violent games-scientists are 
increasingly examining the potential benefits of video games. Their studies are revealing 
that a wide variety of games can boost mental function, improving everything from vision 
to memory. Still unclear is whether these gains are long-lasting and can be applied to 
non-game tasks. But video games, it seems, might actually be good for the brain. 

What, according to the writer, are scientists not sure about in relation to video games? 
A If games can improve mental abilities. Does the text say they can? 
B If violent games have negative effects on the brain. Does the text say they can? 
C If there will still be benefits when you are doing other activities. Are there benefits? 
D If memory and vision are improved. Are they? 
2 Now reread the question. Which of these are scientists not sure about? 
Read the passage below and answer the multiple-choice questions 
Ifs payday or, more accurately, pocket money day, and Julia Spargo-Ryan, 15, is 
cashed up. Like clockwork, $50 is transferred every Wednesday from her parents·

account to hers. The Wesley College student also earns around $150 per week from 
a part-time job. Her parents pay for her mobile phone and occasionally give her extra 
money. Julia spends her money on clothes, movie tickets and snacks. She has to help 
out around the house, but does no specific tasks. 

What is the best way to describe how Julia gets her money? 
Now read the passages below and answer the True/False/Not Given questions. 
Han-Seok Seo, study leader of the Seoul National University in South Korea, and his 
colleagues conducted their tests on four groups of adult male Wistar rats stressed 
from sleep deprivation. The aim of the study was to demonstrate influences of roasted 
coffee aroma on rat brain functions and evaluate the impact. After testing, the impact 
was conclusive; roasted coffee bean aroma changes the mRNA and protein levels of the 
rat brain. This showed for the first time that valuable proteins with healthy antioxidant 
properties, which are important in protecting cells from stress, were found in the 
brains of the coffee-sniffing rats. 

The laboratory rats drank coffee. What was given to the rats? Does the passage say 
whether they drank coffee or not? 

The rats were stressed from being tested. Why were the rats stressed? 

The smell of coffee improved healthy proteins in the laboratory rats' brains. What 
improved in the rats· brains? What caused the improvement?
