Boxing is popular in many countries. Two fighters wear boxing gloves on their hands. A bell rings. The boxers hit each other until one knocks out the other. Each part of the fight is 3 minutes long. It is called a round. Thai boxing is different. The boxing match begins with music from drums and flutes. Then the two fighters kneel and pray to God. Next, they do a slow dance that copies the movements of Thai boxing. During this dance, each fighter tries to show the other he is the best. 
Then the fight begins. In Thai boxing, the fighters can kick with their feet and hit each other with the bows and knees, of course they hit with their hand too. After each round, the boxers have a two- minute rest. Most boxers can fight only 5 rounds because this kind of fighting is very difficult.
Thai boxing began over 500 years ago. If a soldier lost his weapons in a battle, he needed to fight with just his body. The soldiers learned how to use all the parts of their body. In 1560, the Burmese army captured Naresuen, the King of Thailand in a war. King Naresuen was a very good boxer. He won his freedom from Burma by defeating all the best Burmese fighters.

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.
“Culture shock” describes the impact of moving from a familiar culture to one which is unfamiliar .It is an experience described by people who have travelled abroad to work, live or study ;it can be felt to certain extent even when abroad on holiday. It includes the shock of a new environment, meeting lots of new people and learning the ways of a different country. It also includes the shock of being separated from the important people in your life, maybe family, friends, colleagues, teachers: people you would normally talk to at times of uncertainty, people who give support or guidance. When familiar sights, sounds, smells or tastes are no longer there you can miss them very much. If you are tired and jet-lagged when you arrive, small things can be upsetting and out of all proportion to their real significance.
	Climate: Many students find that the British climate affects them a lot. You may be used to a much warmer climate, or you may just find the greyness and dampness, especially during the winter months, difficult to get used to.
	Food: You may find British food strange. It may taste different, or be cooked differently, or it may seem tasteless or heavy compared with what you are used to.
	Language: Constantly listening and speaking in a foreign language is tiring. Although you may have learned English very thoroughly, it is possible that the regional accents you discover when you arrive in the UK make the language harder to understand than you thought. People may also speak quickly and you may feel too embarrassed to ask them to repeat what they have said
	Dress: If you come from a warm climate, you may find it uncomfortable to wear heavy winter clothing. Not all students will find the style of dress different but for others people’s dress may seem immodest, unattractive, comical or simply drab.
	“Rules” of behavior: Every culture has unspoken rules which affect the way people treat each other. For example, the British generally have a reputation for punctually. In business and academic life keeping to time is important. You should always be on time for lectures, classes and meetings with academic and administrative staff. Social life is a little more complicated. Arranging to meet and see a film at 8 p.m. means arriving at 8 p.m. But if you are invited someone’s home at 8 p.m. you should probably aim to arrive at about 8.10,but not later than 8.20.When going to a student party an invitation for 8 p.m. probably means any time from 9.30 p.m. onwards!
