A set of documents includes as follows:
Invoice appears: 60 packages of goods
Certificate of Origin appears: 60 boxes of goods
In accordance with UCP 500 Article 13a, as the word "packages" is different from "boxes", they are the discrepant documents.
But in accordance with UCP 600 Article 14d:
"Data in a document......need not be identical to, but must not conflict with, data in that document, any other stipulated document or the credit."
As "packages" is a general packing term, "box" is a concrete packing unit, these two words are not ______, so that invoice and certificate of origin are ______.

We live in a society in which the medicinal and social use of substances (drugs) is pervasive: an aspirin to quiet a headache, some wine to be sociable, coffee to get going in the morning, a cigarette for the nerves. When do these socially acceptable and apparently constructive uses of a substance become misuses？ First of all, most substances taken in excess will produce negative effects such as poisoning or intense perceptual distortions. Repeated use of a substance can also lead to physical addiction or substance dependence. Dependence is marked first by an increased tolerance, with more and more of the substance required to produce the desired effect, and then by the appearance of unpleasant withdrawal symptoms when the substance is discontinued.
Drugs (substances) that affect the central nervous system and alter perception, mood, and behavior. are known as psychoactive substances. Psychoactive substances are commonly grouped according to whether they are stimulants, depress ants, or hallucinogens. Stimulants initially speed up or activate the central nervous system, whereas depressants slow it down. Hallucinogens have their primary effect on perception, distorting and altering it in a variety of ways including producing hallucinations. These are the substances often called psychedelic (from the Greek word meaning "mind-manifesting") because they seemed to radically alter one's state of consciousness.
Substance abuse (Line 5, Paragraph 1) is preferable to "drug abuse" in that ______.
A．substances can alter our bodily or mental functioning if illegally used
B．drug abuse is only related to a limited number of drug takers
C．alcohol and tobacco are as fatal as heroin and cocaine
D．many substances other than heroin or cocaine can also be poisonous

You should assume that today’s date is 1 March 2014.
George, a software developer, was born on 11 June 1986. He has accepted a one-year contract to update software for Xpee plc.
(1) The contract will run from 6 April 2014 to 5 April 2015, with a fee of ￡40,000 payable for the entire year of the contract. A condition of the contract is that George will have to do the work personally and not be permitted to sub-contract the work to anyone else.
(2) George will work from home, but will have to attend weekly meetings at Xpee plc’s offices to receive instructions regarding the work to be performed during the following week.
(3) George will not incur any significant expenses in respect of the contract apart from the purchase of a new laptop computer for ￡3,600 on 6 April 2014. This laptop will be used 100% for business purposes.
(4) During the term of the contract, George will not be permitted to work for any other clients. He will therefore not have any other income during the tax year 2014–15.
(5) George’s tax liability for the tax year 2013–14 was collected through PAYE, so he will not be required to make any payments on account in respect of the tax year 2014–15.

(b) Calculate George’s income tax liability and national insurance contributions for the tax year 2014–15 if he is treated as self-employed in respect of his contract with Xpee plc. (4 marks)
(c) If George is treated as being an employee of Xpee plc instead of self-employed:

There is an experiment for this, or at least an observation, make long ago by Karl Von Frisch and more recently confirmed by James Gould at Princeton, Biologists who wish to study such things as bee navigation, language, and behavior. in general have to train their bees to fly from the hive to one or another special place. To do this, they begin by placing a source of sugar very close to the hive so that the bees (considered by their trainers to be very dumb beasts) can learn what the game is about. Then, at regular intervals, the dish or whatever is moved progressively father and farther from the hive in increments (增长) of about 25 percent at each move. Eventually, the target is being moved 100 feet or more at a jump, very far from the hive. Sooner or later, while this process is going on, the biologists shifting the dish of sugar will find the bees are out there waiting for them, precisely where the next position had been planned. This is an uncomfortable observation to make.
With what subject is the passage mainly concerned？
A．The bee, a social animal.
B．Navigational techniques of bees.
C．Testing the awareness of bees.
D．The bee hive, nature's candy shop.
