57. Read the text below and think of the word which best fits each space. Use only one word in each gap.
Men and women experience the same level of sadness while watching tearjerkers like Titanic (1) ______ women are more likely to reach for a box of tissues. That is the conclusion of Vanderbilt University psychologist Ann Kring, (2) _____ findings on sex differences in emotion have appeared in the American Psychological Association's Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
“It is incorrect to make a blanket statement that women are more emotional than men,” she says. “It is correct to say that women show their emotions (3) _____ than men.” Kring conducted two studies – one to determine (4) ____ women are “more emotional” or just “more expressive”, and the other to explore whether gender roles account for expressive differences between women and men. In both, women were shown to be more facially expressive of both positive and negative emotions.
In both studies, university students were brought individually into a laboratory setting and told that they were participating in a study of the psychology of movies and what aspect of a movie draws people into the plot (to prevent them from modifying their behaviour). Subjects were then secretly videotaped. (5) _____, electrodes were attached to their hands to monitor palm-sweating – a measure of emotion. They were later given a self-report survey on expressivity. “We decided to see if maybe sex isn’t the important variable in emotional expressiveness (6) _____ there are such predominant stereotypes about sex and emotion,” says Kring. “Maybe it’s not sex that contributes to these emotion differences, (7) _____ something called gender role.”
Feminine gender roles traditionally include such attributes (8) ______ being nurturing, affectionate, warm and caring, while masculine characteristics are generally the opposite: aggressive, powerful and assertive. Significantly, (9) ______ male and female participants endorsing a high number of characteristics traditionally associated with both masculinity and femininity were more facially expressive. They also reported having a more expressive disposition (10) _____ participants reporting only a high number of either masculine or feminine characteristics.

58. Speak about the most unforgettable moment your life.
You should say:
What happened to you
When and where it happened
What you felt and explain what caused those feelings.
Example:
To start with I could say that there is not only one happy moment in my life that I can share, but a lot of them that I am not even able to describe them with my words. But if I talk about the happiest moment of my life, it is when I got accepted to YES Program, it means Youth Exchange and Study Program. Basically this program was one year scholarship for high school students.
On top of that I should say that I was earnest to strive for the best result and spent most of the time in sitting for a test. I studied as if having 3 meals a day. From morning to night, from Monday to Sunday, all I could do was kept studying. There was an illusion that I was in the dessert, keeping walking ahead and feeling the sand full of my mouth. Sometimes I felt lost in the dessert, wondering where I was and whether I could go through the hardship.
Once on one of school days afternoon I was really exhausted as it was my midterm exams. I was tired of going to school, but I was happy since it was my last year in school. I was studying that day. I remembered that I hadn’t prayed yet so I went out of my room to pray. While I was praying my mom’s cell phone rang, I had a feeling that this phone call is for me. My older sister picked up the phone and she was looking at me, it made me curious why she was looking at me. I felt a vague apprehension. But I needn’t have worried. After a while she cut the phone and started shouting with unconcealed amusement. It was good news. I passed the final test for YES Program to become one of the finalists.
So I felt absolute bliss to have passed the final exam and become a participant of the program. This was the happiest and the most unforgettable moment of my life because I’ve struggled to accomplish a dream and it did come true!
