tive way. 
In this sense, many Chinese cartoons are different from Western cartoons in so far as they do not 
depend chiefly on telling jokes. Often, there is nothing to laugh at when you see Chinese cartoons. 
This is not their primary aim. In addition to commenting on serious political and social matters, 
Chinese cartoons have aimed at spreading the traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely as 
possible among the people. 
Today, however, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading knowledge. They offer 
a very attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout the world, regardless of the particular 
country in which they live. Thus, through cartoons, the thoughts and teachings of the old Chinese 
philosophers and sages can now reach people who live in such countries as Britain, France, America, 
Japan, Malaysia or Australia and who are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture. 
Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly from the West to 
the East and not vice versa. By means of cartoons, however, publishing companies in Taiwan, Hong 
Kong and Singapore are now having success in correcting this imbalance between the East and the 
West. 
Cartoons can overcome language barriers in all foreign countries. The vast increase in the 
popularity of these cartoons serves to illustrate the truth of Confucius’s famous saying “One picture is 
worth a thousand words.”

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 from 51 to 60. 
It’s often said that we learn things at the wrong time. University students frequently do the 
minimum of work because they’re crazy about a good social life instead. Children often scream 
before their piano practice because it’s so boring. They have to be given gold stars and medals to be 
persuaded to swim, or have to be bribed to take exams. But the story is different when you’re older. 
Over the years, I’ve done my share of adult learning. At 30, I went to a college and did courses in 
History and English. It was an amazing experience. For starters, I was paying, so there was no 
reason to be late – I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor was late, not the 
other way round. Indeed, if I could persuade him to linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus,

not a nuisance. I wasn’t frightened to ask questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I 
passed an exam, I had passed it for me and me alone, not for my parents or my teachers. The 
satisfaction I got was entirely personal. 
Some people fear going back to school because they worry that their brains have got rusty. But the 
joy is that, although some parts have rusted up, your brain has learnt all kinds of other things since 
you were young. It has learnt to think independently and flexibly and is much better at relating one 
thing to another. What you lose in the rust department, you gain in the maturity department. 
In some ways, age is a positive plus. For instance, when you’re older, you get less frustrated. 
Experience has told you that, if you’re calm and simply do something carefully again and again, 
eventually you’ll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas – from being able to drive 
a car, perhaps – means that if you can’t, say, build a chair instantly, you don’t, like a child, want to 
destroy your first pathetic attempts. Maturity tells you that you will, with application, eventually get 
there. 
I hated piano lessons at school, but I was good at music. And coming back to it, with a teacher 
who could explain why certain exercises were useful and with musical concepts that, at the age of ten, 
I could never grasp, was magical. Initially, I did feel a bit strange, thumping out a piece that I’d 
played for my school exams, with just as little comprehension of what the composer intended as I’d 
had all those years before. But soon, complex emotions that I never knew poured out from my 
fingers, and suddenly I could understand why practice makes perfect.
