corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
The human nose is an underrated tool. Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers
compared with animals, __21__ this is largely because, __22__ animals, we stand upright. This means
that our noses are __23__ to perceiving those smells which float through the air, __24__ the majority of
smells which stick to surfaces. In fact, __25__, we are extremely sensitive to smells, __26__ we do not
generally realize it. Our noses are capable of __27__ human smells even when these are __28__ to far
below one part in one million.
Strangely, some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, __29__ others
are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes
necessary to generate __30__ smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense
smells and send __31__ to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a
certain smell __32__ can suddenly become sensitive to it when __33__ to it often enough.
The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that brain finds it __34__ to keep all smell
receptors working all the time but can __35__ new receptors if necessary. This may __36__ explain
why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells we simply do not need to be. We are not __37__ of

Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points: 2×20)
Direction: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or
statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D You are expected to make
the best choice.
Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:
Moral responsibility is all very well, but what about military orders? Is it not the soldier’s first
duty to give instant obedience to orders given by his military superiors? And apart from duty, will not
the soldier suffer severe punishment, even death, if he refuses to do what he is ordered to do? If, then, a
soldier is told by his superior to burn this house or to shoot that prisoner, how can he be held criminally
accountable on the ground that the burning or shooting was a violation of the laws of war?
These are some of the questions that are raised by the concept commonly called “superior orders”,
and its use as a defense in war crimes trials. It is an issue that must be as old as the laws of war
themselves, and it emerged in legal guise over three centuries ago when, after the Stuart restoration in
1660, the commander of the guards at the trial and execution of Charles I was put on trial for treason
and murder. The officer defended himself on the ground “that all he did was as a soldier, by the
command of his superior officer whom he must obey or die,” but the court gave him short shrift, saying
that “when the command is traitorous, then the obedience to that command is also traitorous.”
Though not precisely articulated, the rule that is necessarily implied by this decision is that it is the
soldier’s duty to obey lawful orders, but that he may disobey—and indeed must, under some
circumstances—unlawful orders. Such has been the law of the United States since the birth of the
nation. In 1804, Chief Justice John Marshall declared that superior orders will justify a subordinate’s
conduct only “if not to perform a prohibited act”, and there are many other early decisions to the same
