Choose the item that best answers the question or completes the unfinished statement about the passage.
 A typical day at school starts at 8.40 a.m., with the first of the many bells ringing throughout the building. Pupils must then go to registration, which lasts until 9 o'clock.
 After registration, lessons begin. Sixth form pupils must attend the subject lessons that they choose, either at 'O' level or 'A' level standard. My first lesson on a Wednesday morning is English. During this lesson, we usually read a set 'A' level textbook, and then comment and discuss the language and style. After this I have two free study-periods.
 The courses chosen by sixth formers are all mixed, and occupy different amounts of time every week. Therefore students usually have a number of periods in which they may study privately. After my two free periods, I have three lessons of Geography, one before morning break, and two afterwards. During break, pupils may buy drinks, sweets, and crisps from the school tuck-shop.
 For lunch, many pupils bring sandwiches, but hot and cold meals are available in the school canteen. At 1.15 on Wednesday, school band practice is held. It is quite a big band with about thirty members.
 Lessons recommence at two o'clock. Most Lower Sixth pupils have social education on Wednesday afternoon, which is held in the library, and taken by the headmaster. This lesson lasts until quarter past three - the end of school.

Fill the following passage carefully and answer the questions below it:
THE ZIPPER
The zipper is a wonderful invention. How did people ever lived without zippers? Zippers are very common, so we forget that they are wonderful. They are very strong but they open and close very easily. They come in many colours and sizes. In the 1890s, people in the United States were high shoes with a row of buttons. Women's clothes often had rows of buttons, too. People wanted an easy way to put on and take off clothes.
Whitcomb L.Judson invented the zipper in 1893. He was an engineer in Chicago. He called the zipper a slide fastener. However, it didn't stay close very well. This was embarrassing and people didn't by many of them. Then Dr. Gideon Sundback from Sweden solved this problem.
A zipper has three parts. 1. There are dozens of metal or plastic hooks (called teeth) in two rows. 2. These are fastened to two strips of cloth. The cloth strips are flexible. They it slides the other way, it takes the hooks apart. Dr. Sundback put the hooks on the strips of cloths. The cloth holds the hooks in place. They don't come apart very easily. This solved the problem of the first zippers.
