A exclusively B. boringly C. considerably D. insolently Passage 2 The first navigational lights in the New World were probably lanterns hung at harbor entrances. The first lighthouse was put up the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1716 on Little Brewster Island at the entrance to Boston Harbor. Paid for and maintained by "light dues" levied on ships, the original beacon was blown up in 1776. By then there were only a dozen or so true lighthouses in the colonies. Little over a century later, there were 700 lighthouses. The first eight erected on the West Coast in the 1850s featured the same basic New England design: a Cape Cod dwelling with the tower rising from the center and standing close by. In New England and elsewhere, though, lighthouses reflected a variety of architectural styles. Since most stations in the Northeast were built on rocky eminences, enormous towers were not the rule. Some were made of stone and brick, others of wood or metal. Some stood on pilings or stilts~ some

were fastened to rock with iron rods. Florida Keys, the coast was low and towers there - massive structures like lighthouse, which was lit in 1870. At the country.
Farther south, from Maryland through the sandy. It was often necessary to build tall the majestic Cape Hatteras, North Carolina 190 feet, it is the tallest brick lighthouse in
Notwithstanding differences in appearance and construction, most American lighthouses shared several features: a light, living quarters, and sometimes a bell (or, later, a foghorn). They also had something else in common: a keeper and, usually, the keeper's family. The keeper's essential task was trimming the lantern wick in order to maintain a steady, bright flame. The earliest keepers came from every walk of life they were seamen, farmers, mechanics, rough mill hands - and appointments were often handed out by local customs commissioners as political plums. After the administration of lighthouses was taken over in 1852 by the United States Lighthouse Board, an agency of the Treasury Department, the keeper corps gradually became highly professional. 60.

Homing pigeons are placed in a training program from about the time they are twenty-eight days of age. They are taught to enter the loft through a trap and to exercise above and around the loft, and gradually they are taken away for short distances in wicker baskets and released. They are then expected to find their way home in the shortest possible time.
In their trammg flights or in actual races, the birds are taken to prearranged distant points and released to find their way back to their own lofts. Once the birds are liberated, their owners, who are standing by at the home lofts, anxiously watch the sky for the return of their entries. Since time is of the essence, the speed with which the birds can be induced to enter the loft trap may make the difference between gaining a win or a second place. The head of the homing pigeon is comparatively small, but its brain is one quarter larger than that of the ordinary pigeon. The homing pigeon is very intelligent and will persevere to the point of stubbornness; some have been known the fly a hundred miles off course to avoid a storm. Some homing pigeon experts claim that this bird is gifted with a form of built-in radar that helps it find its own loft after hours of flight, for hidden under feathers are two very sensitive ears, while the sharp, prominent eyes can see great distances in daytime. Why do homing pigeons fly home? They are not unique in this inherent skill; it is found in most migratory birds, in bees, ants, toads, and even turtles, which have been known to travel hundreds of miles to return to their homes. But in the animal world, the homing pigeon alone can be trusted with its freedom and trained to carry out the missions that people demand. 69.

C. previewed D. proposed Passage 4 Carmen Lomas Garza's eloquent etchings, lithographs, and gouache paintings depict primal images of the rural environment and communal cultural experience of Mexican-descended people in the United States. In an introspective and personal language, she describes the customs, traditions, and way of life of her Texan-Mexican heritage. By 1972, Lomas Garza had evolved her distinctive monitos, paintings of stylized figures in culturally specific social environments. She transposes images and scenes from her past, combining cultural documentation with invention in an interplay of fact and fiction. Through selection, emphasis, and creation, these monitos delineate facets ofexperience, expressing deeper truths. Oral tradition is a mainstay of Chicano culture. In both urban and rural communities, a rich and varied repertoire of ballads, tales, and poetic forms is preserved in memory and passed from generation to generation. Lomas Garza's monitos function as an oral tradition in visual form. Her unique art of storytelling employs iconographic elements to create a concentrated narration. Visual episodes within an unfolding epic tale of cultural regeneration, the monitos keep alive the customs and daily practices that give meaning and coherence to Chicano identity. The;r basic aim is to delight and instruct. For those outside Chicano culture, the precise and minutely detailed monitos provide a glimpse into the rich and vibrant lifestyle of the largest Spanish-speaking cultural group within United States society. Although her art has an innocent earnestness and folkloric affinity, Lomas Garza's expression is neither naive nor instinctive. The artist is highly trained academically, but has chosen to remain independent of dominant artistic trends in order to work toward a private aesthetic response to social concerns. While her work does not posit an overt political statement, it originates from a desire to respond to the contemporary situation of Mexican Americans by expressing positive images of their culture. 78. What does the passage mainly discuss? A Cultural aspects of Garza's work B. Garza's artistic training C. Political aspects of Garza's work D. Critical reviews of Garza's work

Wood is a renewable source of industrial material. Unlike most mineral resources, which cannot be renewed within the normal time span of human civilization, many types of trees can be grown again and again, several times in a century. In fact, regrowth may be so rapid that one crop of timber may be harvested every fifteen to twenty years on a single woodlot This is especially true where large or mature trees are not necessary, as in the production of wood pulp. All of this has been made possible by the development of modern forestry techniques. There has been a wide-scale application of machinery in the harvesting, transportation, and processing of wood, as well as in the reduction of waste in logging and mill operations. Moreover, any wastes that are produced are now turned into useful industrial products. Today, 60 to 80 percent of a tree is used profitably, as compared to 40 or 50 percent in 1950 and only 30 percent in 1900. The structural use of wood in construction such as buildings, bridges, ships, and so on has undoubtedly given way in many areas to metal, plastics, glass, concrete, and other materials. As a fuel, wood has been replaced by coal, oil, natural gas, and atomic energy. But enormous quantities of timber are still consumed for various purposes, particularly in the construction of buildings, framework and scaffolding, furniture, utensils, handles, and various containers. A tremendous demand for wood is made by paper and pulp mills, by the chemical industries, and by plywood and hardwood manufacturers. Despite the tremendous demands these activities make on forest resources, the timber supply in some parts of the world is increasing because of management of forests and good timber harvesting practices.
87. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage? A. The use of machinery in logging operations B. The advantages of wood as an industrial material C. The preference for wood products in building construction D. The rapid regrowth of timber crops 88. The author contrasts the renewability ofwood resources with that of A. minerals B. waste products C. plastics D. atomic energy 89. Under the right circumstances it harvested every A. 15 to 20 years B. 30 to 40 years C. 40 to 50 years D. 60 to 80 years

Questions 25 through 27 are based on the following conversation between two friends. M: It's hard to believe it's become so complicated and expensive to buy a pair of glasses. F' I know.

I've noticed that things are sort of blurry sometimes, but I haven't seen an eye doctor yet. F : Oh, so you're looking for a place to go. Have you checked around? M: Yes. I just found out that designer eyeglasses can cost $200 or more just for the frame. F: And a pair oflenses could add well over $100 to that. M: Yes, depending on the material and special lens coatings. F : So, including the cost of an eye exam, a pair of spectacles can cost as much as a color TV set. M: It's incredible. It's a good thing that I don't need to buy anything fancy. But it sounds like you have a lot of information about glasses. Did you just buy some? F: I did, A few months ago. You might check the optometrist in the new mall. Maybe they're still having a sale. M: I did. They're having a promotion now.

Is it possible for my friends and me to rent your cabin for two nights? F : Sure, as long as it's free. Which days are you interested in? M: We'd like to go this Friday and Saturday, if possible. If not, the following weekend is fine too. F : Let me see, one couple is there now, but they're going to be leaving on Thursday of this week, so it should be fine on Friday and Saturday. M: We have six people in all. Is that OK? Do you have room for that many? F : Sure. There are two bedrooms and a pull-out bed in the living room, so it can sleep six. M: Thank you very much. By the way, how much should we pay? F : It's 100 dollars for the weekend. M: You mean 100 dollars for six of us for two nights? That sounds great. F : Good. The price is low because we expect you to clean up the cabin before you leave. Can you come by my office tomorrow for the key and instructions? My office hours are two to three P.M. M: All right. By the way, Professor Douglas, could you also show me how to get up to the cabin? I'll bring a map with me tomorrow. F : Of course.

M: Well, my professor was just discussing this yesterday. In most books it is written that Shakespeare was born in Stratford-on-Avon. F : Yeah, I know that. M: But for this man who was called Shakespeare, or Shagsper, or something that sounds like that, there is no evidence that he was literate. There are a few signatures that are written like an illiterate man and there is nothing else-not a single letter, not a single clue that he might have been a writer. And his parents were illiterate and so were his daughters! In addition, there is no evidence that he owned a single book or that he ever went to school. In fact, there is no evidence that there even was a school in the little village of Stratford. F: Wow, what a mystery. I didn't know all that. So what does your professor say about who wrote the plays? M: Well, one likely candidate is the Earl of Oxford, but nobody knows for sure. The Earl was a lord and a leading member of the court, so he couldn't sign his name to his own work. It seems possible that the Earl of Oxford, whose name was Edward de Vere, might have used William Shakespeare's name to fool people. F: But what about this Shakespeare then? Wouldn't he know his name was being used? M: Yes. So now some people are saying that the Earl of Oxford gave money to Shakespeare to keep him quiet. And that's the money that he used to build the house that tourists all go to now in Stratford! F : What a story. 1 wonder if it's true? I think I'll go read more about the Earl of Oxford!

Passage 1 The standard of living of any country means the average person's share of the goods and services which the country produces. A country's standard of living, therefore, depends first and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. 'Wealth' is this sense is not money, for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy; 'goods' such as food and clothing and 'services' such as transport and entertainment. A country's capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors, most of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a country's natural resources, such as coal, and other minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have fertile soil and a favorable climate; other regions possess perhaps only one of these things, and some regions possess none of them. The U.S.A. is one of the wealthiest regions of the world because she has vast natural resources within her borders, her soil is fertile, and her climate is varied. The Sahara Desert, on the other hand, is one ofthe least wealthy. Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use. China is perhaps as well off as the U.S.A. in natural resources, but has suffered for many years from civil and external wars, and for this and other reasons has been unable to develop her resources. Sound and stable political conditions, and freedom from foreign invasion, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and to produce more wealth than another country equally wen served by nature but less well ordered. Another important factor is the technical efficiency of a country's people. Old countries that have, through many centuries, trained up numerous skilled craftsmen and technicians are better places to produce wealth than countries whose workers are largely unskilled. Wealth also produces wealth. As a country becomes wealthier, its people have a larger margin for saving, and can put their savings into factories and machines which will help workers to turn our more goods in their working day. 51.
A country's standard of living depends on _ _ _ _ __ A. Its natural resources B. Goods and services C. Capacity to produce wealth D. How much money it has

money to buy goods natural resources foreign aid fertile land
54. China cannot fully make use of her natural resources because _ __ A. she has not enough natural resources B. her people have no idea of how to develop them C. she has a great number of illiterate people D. the unfavorable situations of the country make it unable to 55. A country well-served by nature might not be able to develop her resources fully because _ _ __ A. she lacks skilled work men and technicians B. her people have no education C. her people lack capacity to work hard D. she lacks money to invest in industries 56. A country's standard of living depends first and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. (line 3) What does this sentence means? A. The capacity to produce wealth is most important to a country's standard of living B. The level of standard of living of each country's rise or fall depends on wealth C.

The ability to use the natural resources is related to the resources D. The ability to tum them for use comes close to the natural resources
59. 'things' in ........ for we do not live on money but on things (line 4) refers to
A. food and clothes
B. wealth and services C. goods and services D. transport and entertainment Passage 2 Fishing as a means of obtaining food is an occupation as old as mankind itself From the earliest times fishing as an industry has played an important part in the history of communities and nations and it was the knowledge of the sea and of navigation gained through fishing on the high seas that made possible the voyages of exploration which pushed back the frontiers of the world. Fishing fleet were the fore-runners of navies and merchant marines. The influence and commercial importance of many nations even today can therefore be traced directly back to the activities of fishermen in the pursuit of food from the sea. The proportion of the food supply derived from fish varies from country to country and from people to people. The consumption of fish as food throughout the world has increased greatly in recent years and there have been additional demands for processed fish for agricultural and industrial uses. On the supply side. the world catch has more than doubled since 1948.
The growth in the world catch of fish and in international trade in fish and fish products in the post-war period has so far exceeded world population growth, and there is enough fish for consumption. But further expansion is required to meet the ever increasing world demand for high protein food. The resources or the world's oceans, lakes and rivers have been tapped and though these sources are great they are not inexhaustible. There is the danger of some kinds of fish dying out because of over-fishing. Conservation is therefore essential to ensure the future supply to fish. In several heavily-fished areas there is a strong and growing demand for greater measures of conservation to ensure the highest possible yields. The individual country cannot by itself do much to conserve fish in its seas. The co-operation of a number of countries fishing in that particular area is necessary. Conservation of food from the sea has to be an international effort. With good planning and international co-operation the world's fisheries could be developed to yield a larger share of man's expanding requirements for food. 60.
In the first sentence the author implies that as an occupation fishing is very A. ancient

The study of ecology is important for everyone who cares about our world. Air water, and land - we could not live without any of these. But what do we mean by land? It is the earth beneath our feet, wherever we are. It is mountains and plains. It is wide fields for growing corn and wheat. Or it may be an airfield or
a parking lot or a highway or a whole city land covered with cement, asphalt, and buildings, land is the solid part of the Earth. Land is the soil plants grow in. That is the most important thing about the land - it is the place where green plants grow. Without green plants there would be no life on Earth. Green leaves make oxygen. All of us - ants, elephants, people, every living creature - must have oxygen to stay alive. '-"Ie breathe in oxygen and our bodies use it. Carbon dioxide is formed in the process and we breathe it out. Lea ves use carbon dioxide along with water to make food for plants. Then they give off oxygen. This process has been going on for millions of years. It is part of the pattern of our natural life on Earth. This pattern had changed very little for millions of years before people arrived on Earth. People found ways to improve their lives by changing nature, by trying to make nature fit in with their way of life. Warm houses in winter, electric lights at night, factories to produce our food, our clothes, our gadgets all this people have accomplished, And we learned to grow more food on the land than nature could grow without our help. All this is good up to a point. But it has gone too far. We have produced too much and we have failed to see what this was doing to our world. We have not understood the ways in which all living things on Earth depend on one another. We ourselves have increased until the sheer numbers of people on Earth have upset the balance of nature. 69.

Passage 4
[n 1900 Karl Landsteinner, then of Vienna, found the reason why blood transfusions from one person to another sometimes produced severe reactions of shock and sometimes even death of the recipient, while in other cases transfusion was successfuL Landsteiner found that all human being fall into four main groups according to the composition of their blood. The groups are known as 0, A, B, and AB. Blood transfusion from people of group 0 can safely be given to persons of any group, hence group 0 people are known as "universal donors'. Persons of group AB are universal recipients, since they can safely receive blood from any other person. But A blood cannot be given to 0 or B persons,· B blood should not be given to 0 or A persons while AB blood cause trouble when transfused into 0, A or B persons. The races differ in blood group type only in a relative ways. There are no absolute differences in which one race is all of one blood type, and another all of another type. Consider what this means. Suppose your blood is group 0, that you are wounded and need a blood transfusion, and that many persons have offered to donate their blood, whom should you choose as a blood donors? The old and obsolete theory of heredity, and the ideas about race based upon it, would counsel you that a blood most similar to yours would be found in a person of the same race and particularly in your close relatives, brothers or sisters. You may also hear that you should choose as blood donor a person of upright character and good disposition otherwise you may be contaminated by bad blood. A native of any land who possesses blood of group 0 will be a better donor regardless of his race or moral qualities. It is wiser to choose your donor according to his blood type, which is determined by his individual heredity, than according to the race from which he sprang. It is this property of his blood that matters, not his skin 'color, intelligence, or moraL By analogy, if you wish to hear good music it is wise to choose an artist who is a good musician; his blood group does not matter, nor is his skin color relevant. When you vote in a political election, the intelligence and honesty of the candidate, not his blood group or musical abilities, are relevant.

A wounded person who needs a transfusion could be safely given the blood of - - - - - " A. his own brothers or sisters, whatever their blood group are B. any healthy person C. anyone belonging to 0 group D. a member of his own race
82. Which one of the following statements is a logical inference? A. That another person's blood might clog one's own blood vessels B. People should not place too much trust in relatives C. It is risky to take the blood of another racial group D. The character and race of a blood donor are not relevant considerations.

Jazz was created by Black musicians in New Orleans in the late 1800s. It grew out of the "blues" music that reflected the hardships of life. w.e. Handy of Alabama was the 'tather l!f the blues." His most famous composition was "St. Louis Blues." Most of the early Black jazz musicians had little or no formal training in music. Yet they were superb performers. Their music was an eloquent outlet for their emotions. Bessie Smith, a leading singer of the 1920s, sang movingly about her own sorrowful experiences. Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong was the most famous jazz musician of the day. He won international fame both as a trumpeter and as a smger. Jazz musicians improvised much of their music. Taking a musical idea as a theme they chased a tune up and down the scales as they played. This technique gave musicians and listeners alike a sense of freedom. Jazz spread from New Orleans to Chicago and New York and then throughout most of the world. White musicians as well as Black performed it. The decade of the 1920s is sometimes called the Jazz Age. In part the popularity of its music is enough to explain this characterization. But jazz also symbolized the way many young people of the time felt about life in general. They
sought to break away from rigid, conventional rules and traditions, just as jazz trumpeters and saxophonists departed from written notes in order to express themselves. 87. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Famous Black Musicians B. North American Cities C. The Jazz Age D. The Trumpet and saxophone 88. In line 4, the author uses the expression <'father of the blues" to refer to a person who A. was a special teacher B. was a religious leader C. had raised many children D. had created a style of music 89. It can be inferred that when someone is feeling blue the person is most likely to be feeling A. calm B. sad C. guilty D. proud 90. The author implies that the excellence of early jazz performances might be considered surprising because the performers A. were musically untrained B. expressed unfamiliar emotions C. were informal with their audiences D. had unconventional life-styles 91. The author mentions Bessie Smith because she A. became a famous music teacher B. studied music with W.C.Handy C. played duets with Louis Armstrong D. was a talented jazz vocalist 92. It can be concluded from the passage that the main characteristic distinguishing jazz from other styles of music is that A. its musical scales are different from classical ones B. musicians can interpret its musical themes freely
C. only a saxophone or a trumpet can play it D. its popularity was limited to the 1920s 93. According to the passage, Jazz represented the attitudes of young people during the 1920s because it was A. expressive and unrestrained by conventional B. played up and down the city streets C. a vehicle for international peace D. a reflection of their early life experiences 94.

Questions 21 through 25 are based on the following conversation between an exercise teacher and her student. F:
M:
F:
Good afternoon. In today's class, I want to discuss and demonstrate one of the principles of relaxation exercise. This might be different from other ways you've been taught to exercise. What I want you to do is this: stretch your body to the point where you feel a little pull. Then stop stretching, but keep the same posture and exhale deeply. By doing this, you will allow your body to release the stress and reduce the resistance. Then you will be able to stretch further, relax, and have no pain. But Susan, I've been doing exercises for years, and for me it always hurts to stretch. And sometimes I feel that the pain is good. In fact, if I don't feel the pain, I think that maybe I'm not stretching enough. You know the old saying, "No pain, no gain!" . Sure, I know th'at saving too, and, in fact, I agree with it for some things. So let's look at this saying in another way. "No pain, no gain." It can be painful to gain a new concept. Sometimes, it's even more painful to change ideas than it is to have a tooth pulled.
M: WeB, you've got a point there. But I'm still not sure about this as it relates to exercise. F : Well, let's just give it a try as a new way of doing stretching exercises. OK, everybody? Watch me first, and then let's begin.
Questions 26 through 30 are based on the following conversation. The woman has just returned from being with her friend, Ana, who is new to the United States. F' M: F:

I told her I would help her learn her way around and today she was told she needed to apply for a social security card. So I took her to the social security office this afternoon. M: That was nice of you. F : But wait until you hear what happened! M: What happened? F : Well, I dropped Ana off at the social security office. I decided not to wait with her because there were so many people waiting in line. So I told her I would come back in an hour. M: And? F: And when I came back, she told me this story. She waited for a long time in line and when she got to the front of the line, the clerk gave her a form to fill out. She sat down to fill it out, but when she read it, she couldn't figure out how to answer the questions. She couldn't make any sense out of it. M: How awful! F : Yeah. She sat there for ages, feeling terrible. She has studied English for . several years, but she realized that she had never learned to read a form like this. So she sat there for a long time, hoping I would come back to help her. But I wasn't back yet, so she finally went up to the clerk and asked for help in filling out the form. He looked at the form quickly and then said, "Oh, I'm sorry. I gave you the wrong form. This one is in Spanish! Here, take a new form." M: Oh no. What a jerk. F : Ana told me that she couldn't believe that she hadn't realized that it was another language! She was really embarrassed. But she sat down and filled it out quickly. It really wasn't any problem for her at aIL When I arrived, she told me it was one of the most embarrassing things she has done here!

Questions 31 through 35 are based on the following conversation between two friends. M: Hi Sarah, where are you hurrying off to? F : Oh hi, Brian. I'm headed over to Linda's house. Her brother just flew in from Alaska with some King Salmon. They're cooking a big dinner. Do you like salmon? M: Yes, I like all kinds of fish, but I've never tasted King Salmon from Alaska. What's so special about it? F : Well, for one thing, it has a very short season; it's only about a month long each year. M: So what else makes this King Salmon so special? F : Well, this fish comes from the glacier water of the Copper River that flows into Prince William Sound in Alaska, and this river is really long and fast moving. So the King Salmon have to adapt to that environment. M: And that makes the King Salmon taste good, right? F: Right. M: I wonder why the season is so short? F : I don't know. Maybe the Fish and Game Department wants to limit the supply. M: So this is the only time of the year we can enjoy fresh King Salmon? F : I guess so. I'll let you know how it tastes. Hey, maybe you could join us? M: Oh, thanks, but I'm on my way out, too. But let me know how it is. After this build-up, I'm ready to fly to Alaska just to taste King Salmon!

Part 2 : Reading Comprehension Cloze
In recent year, numerous groups have offered _36_on how to be "good environmentalists", Although well-intentioned, the advice is too often _37_ on little more than uncritical acceptance of such core beliefs as "recycling is good". From the _38_ of the total environment, the advice is 39 wrong. Those who follow it may actually end up harming the environment more than if 40 were to ignore it altogether.
Here is one of the common myths: Plastics are bad. To most 4 of "green" consumerism, an aluminum container is best, glass second and plastic the worst However, _42_ to the economic and environmental research organization California Futures, of non-recycled containers, plastic _43_ the least energy to manufacture. Plastics are lighter and more efficient than many other kinds of_44_, A research organization in Germany _45_ the effects of _46_ all plastic containers in that country.
It found that energy _47_ would almost double, and the weight of solid _48_ would increase 404 percent.

Passage I Here in the United States, before agricultural activities destroyed the natural balance, there were great migrations of Rocky Mountain locusts (Melanoplus spretus). Great migrating hordes of these insects once darkened the skies on the plains east of the Rockies where crops were often destroyed; the worst years were those from 1874 to 1877. One of these migrating swarms was estimated to contain 124 billion locusts. During another migration in Nebraska it was estimated that the swarm of locusts averaged half a mile high and was 100 miles wide and 300 miles long. Usually, these swarms take off from the ground against the wind, but, once airborne, they tum and fly with it. Warm convection currents help t6 lift them, often to great heights. During the great locust plagues the situation in Nebraska became so serious that the original state constitution had to be rewritten to take care of the economic problems. The new document was known as "The Grasshopper Constitution." It is now believed that these locusts were a migratory form or phase ofthe lesser migratory locust, which is still.common there. In this respect, the North American migratory locusts resemble their African relative. In both regions the migratory forms arise as a result of crowding and climatic factors. Migratory forms are apparently natural adaptations which bring about dispersal when locust populations become too crowded. Fortunately for our farmers, the migratory form -the so -called spretus species - no longer seems to occur regularly, although there was a serious outbreak as late as 1938 in Midwestern United States and Canada. Actually, there is no reason why the destructive migratory form might not again appear if circumstances should become favorable.
51. Which of the following is the best title for thepassage? A. The Life Cycle ofLocusts B. Migratory Locusts in the United State C. Locust Plagues in Nebraska D. The Reproductive Capability of the Locust 52. According to the passage, the worst destruction by locusts in the plains area east of the Rockies occurred during the A. eighteenth century B. early nineteenth century C. late nineteenth century D. twentieth century 53.

The family lived in an alley, where her widowed mother earned a living by taking in laundry. A gifted child, Walker completed high school at the age of sixteen and began a teaching career. After taking a course in business, she left teaching in 1889 to become the executive secretary of the independent Order of S1. Luke. Within ten years she had become secretary-treasurer, and she held this position for thirty-five years. The purpose of the Order of S1. Luke was to provide assistance to its members in sickness, in old age, and in meeting funeral expenses. Walker's duties were to collect the 'dues, verify the claims, and keep the books. She conceived the idea of training the members to save and invest their money. When she assumed the job of secretary-treasurer, the order had only 3,408 members, no reserve funds, and no property.

Luke Herald.
In 1902 she had proposed the plan for the founding of the St. Luke Penny Savings Bank, of which she later became president. In time, the bank became the St. Luke Bank and Trust Company, a depository for gas and water accounts and for city taxes.

Passage 3 "The Lady from Philadelphia," Marian Anderson, became the world's leading concert contralto in the twentieth century and one of the best-known Black singers in the history of music. She studied music as a child with Mary Patterson, who refused to accept a fee, and sang in the choir of the local Union Baptist Church. Encouraged by her family and friends, she began giving recitals in churches, schools, and YMCA halls when barely in her teens. Roland Hayes took an interest in her career and appeared with her in cantatas and oratorios as early as 1916. Her church invested in the future oftheir gifted young singer by setting up a
trust fund to pay for advanced study with the Italian voice teacher Giuseppe Boghetti. In 1924 Anderson's career got otT to an auspici(}us beginning when she won first prize over three hundred contestants in a competition conducted by the New York Philharmonic Orchestra at Lewisohn Stadium. But her recitals at Town Hall in New York and at Witherspoon Hall in Philadelphia received little attention from the press. On the advice of her management, Anderson went to Europe to travel and study, drawing up(}n a Julius Rosenwald Fellowship that she received in . 1920. Marian Anderson's debut recital in Berlin in 1933 was followed by two years of successful concerts in the leading capitals of Europe. At Salzburg in August 1935, an event took place which decided her future when she sang a recital before a gathering of the most eminent musicians in the world. As customary, she sang the conventional Bach and Schubert, but ended the program with a group of spirituals. The illustrious Toscanini, who was among those present. declared, "A voice such as this comes once in a hundred years." Similar praise came from the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius.

Passage 4 In Colonial North America, people made the most of daylight. Work started at sunrise and ended at sundown. At night the candle and fireplace were the chief sources of light, but their light was poor. Open lamps made of wrought iron similar to the pottery and stone examples of the Greeks and Romans were used, but their wicks were difficult to keep evenly trimmed and in place. Whether burning fat, or tallow, they smoked and smelled bad, and were not popular. Tallow candles, which have changed little during the past thousand years, were made in every household. Sometimes the sweet-smelling bayberry was used. Edward Holyoke, president of Harvard College from 1737 to 1769, meticulously noted in his diary the making of candles. On March 22, 1743, he wrote "Made 112 bayberry candles, 15 lbs. 12 oz.," and the following day "Made 62 lbs. Tallow candles, 29 small, 33 112 great." On September 17, he added, "Candles all gone." Repeatedly, his diary made explicit his interest in the problem of lighting. In 1761 he figured comparative costs per hour for light from four kinds of candles, including the then relatively new spermaceti candles made from whale oil. Both homemade and store-bought, or "common sale," candles, ranging in size from nine to eighteen per pound, burned between five and six hours each, at a cost of one to one and three-quarters pennies per hour. Thus, according to Holyoke, minimal light of four to five candles cost at least four cents per hour - at which rate, the light from a 100-candle-power light would have cost four hundred cents per hour - probably forty or fifty dollars per hour in present day money purchasing power. It is not surprising that each household carefully saved its tallow, made its own candles, and went to bed early. 78. What is the author's main purpose in the passage? A To describe open lamps made of wrought iron, pottery, and stone B. To present information about Edward Holyoke C. To discuss the methods of lighting available to American Colonists D. To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of bayberry candles 79.

The word "its" at the end ofthe passage refers to A. tallow B. light e. household D. candles 83 . . It can be inferred from the passage that in Holyoke's time people A. saved their candles to sell for profit B. worked chiefly by candlelight e. used 100 candles per hour D. used their candles frugally 84.

86. In the first paragraph, the word "wrought" is closest in meaning to which of the following? A. made B. decorated C. coated D. raw. Passage 5 An important new industry, oil refining, grew after the Civil War. Crude a dark, thick ooze from the earth - had been known for oil, or petroleum hundreds of years. But little use had ever been made of it. In the 1850s Samuel M. Kier, a manufacturer in western Pennsylvania began collecting the oil from local seepages and refining it into kerosene. Refining, like smelting, is a process of removing impurities from a raw material. Kerosene was used to light lamps. It was a cheap substitute for whale oil, which was becoming harder to get. Soon there was a large demand for kerosene. People began to search for new supplies of petroleum. The first oil well was drilled by E.L. Drake, a retired railroad conductor. In 1859 he began drilling in Titusville, Pennsylvania. The whole venture seemed so impractical and foolish that onlookers called it "Drake's Folly." But when he had drilled down about 70 feet (21 meters), Drake struck oil. His well began to yield 20 barrels of crude oil a day. News of Drake's success brought oil prospectors to the scene. By the early 1860s these wildcatters were drilling for "black gold" all over western Pennsylvania. The boom rivaled the California gold rush of 1848 in its excitement and Wild West atmosphere. And it brought far more wealth to the prospectors than any gold rush. . Crude oil could be refined into many products. For some years kerosene continued to be the principal one. It was sold in grocery stores and door - to door. In the 1880s and 1890s refiners learned how to make other petroleum products such as waxes and lubricating oils. Petroleum was not then used to make gasoline or heating oil.
87. What is the best title for the passage? A. Oil Refining: A Historical Perspective B. The Calif9rnia Gold Rush: Get Rich Quickly C. Private Property: Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted D. Kerosene Lamps: A Light in the Tunnel 88. It can be inferred from the passage that kerosene was preferable to whale oil because whale oil was too A. expenSIve B. thick C. hot D. polluted 89.

Hi, Jeannie. Are you heading over to the library? No, it's closed now. Closed already? It's still early! I know. Didn't you hear about the new hours? They're only open for a half day now. What's going on? I heard that they are putting in a new special resource center. They have to rebuild the basement and the whole library shakes when they begin using their tools. Oh, well. I guess it's just as well that they're closed, then. What do you know about the new resource center? What's it for? I think it's for projects that focus on global concerns in the twenty-first century. They're trying to attract community people as well as students who need resources concerning new technology, the environment, and such. That sounds great. I wish it were ready now. I'm doing a report on increasing global economic cooperation. That should be a twenty-first-century concern. I've been spending a lot of time in different sections of the main library looking up material. This new center should be excellent. I guess it's worth putting up with bi.1ilding noise and shortened hours for the time being.

Passage I The railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at high speeds. Railroad executives wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating iron ore. Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace would burn out the impurities that made the iron brittle. As the air shot through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel. Now three to five tons of iron could be chaflged into steel in a matter of minutes. Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.
Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to depots on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With dizzying speed, Gary, Indiana, and Toledo, Youngstown, and Cleveland, Ohio, became major steel-manufacturing centers. Pittsburgh was the greatest steel city of all. Steel was the basic building material. of the industrial age. Production skyrocketed from seventy-seven thousand tons in 1870 to over eleven million tons in 1900. 51. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Railroad Industry B. Famous Inventors C. Changing Iron into Steel D. Steel Manufacturing Centers 52. According to the passage, the railroad industry preferred steel to iron because steel was A. cheaper and more plentiful B. lighter and easier to mold C. cleaner and easier to mine D. stronger and more durable 53. According to the passage, how did the Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible? A. It directed air at melted iron in a furnace, removing all impurities. B. It slowly heated iron ore, then stirred it and heated it again. C. It changed iron ore into iron, which was a substitute for steel. D. It could quickly find deposits of iron ore under the ground. 54. The furnace that Bessemer used was called a A. heater B. steamer C. converter D. shower 55. Where were farge deposits of iron ore uncovered? A. In Pittsburgh B. In the Mesabi Range C. Near Lake Michigan D. Near Lake Erie .
56. "Barges and steamers" in the fourth paragraph could best be replaced by which of the following? A. Trains B. Planes C. boats D. Trucks
57. The mass production of steel most likely caused A. a decline in the railroad industry B. a revolution in the industrial world C. an increase in the price of steel D. a feeling of discontent among steel workers 58. In the second paragraph, the word "brittle" is closest in meaning to which of the following? A. hard B. fragile C. recyclable D. irate 59.

She wrote other farces, as well as an anti Federalist pamphlet, Observations on the New Constitution. and on the federal and State ConW11IiOlls (1778). There is no modem edition of her works, but there are two twentieth-century biographies, one facsimile edition of The Group, and a generous discussion of her farces and plays in Arthur Hobsop Quinn's A History (?f
the American Drama: From the Beginning to the Civil War. Of her nondramatic poetry, critics rarely speak. Mercy Otis was born into a prominent family in Barnstable, Massachusetts. In 1754, she married James Warren, a Harvard friend of James Otis and John Adams. James Warren was to become a member of the Massachusetts legislature just before the war and a financial aide to Washington during the war fwith the rank of major general). The friendship of the Warrens and Adamses was lifelong and close; Abigail Adams was one of Mercy Warren's few close friends. Following the war, James Warren reentered politics to oppose the Constitution because he feared that it did not adequately provide for protection of individual rights. Mercy warren joined her husband in political battle, but the passage of the Bill of Rights marked the end of their long period of political agitation. In whatever literary form Warren wrote, she had but one theme -liberty. In her farces and history, it was national and political freedom. In her poems, it was imellectual freedom. In her anti-Federalist pamphlet, it was individual freedom. Throughout all of these works, moreover, runs the thread of freedom (equal treatment) for women. Not militant, she nevertheless urged men to educate their daughters and to treat their wives as equals. 60. Mercy Otis Warren wrote about the Constitution in A. 1776 B. 1788 C. 1790 D. 1805 61.

Passage 3 Ocean and teeming river waters were the essential sources of wealth to the Northwest Coast tribes, and they knew how to exploit these waters to their fullest. They supplemented foraging by hunting big sea mammals; the Nootka of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, and their Makah neighbors to the south on Cape Flattery became specialized whalers as skillful as the Inuit farther north. The Wishram, KwakiutI, and Haida, like most Northwest tribes, thrived equally well by gathering catch less challenging than whales or seals. Marine life in many other forms small mammals, shellfish, giant halibut, and sturgeon - was plentiful and the most abundant of all was salmon. Fighting currents to swim upriver at regular intervals and spawn in the freshwater streams and lakes inland where they had originally hatched, the salmon seemed to ask to be picked out of the water, they could be harvested with nets and spears, or occasionally just with a quick hand. Although every able-bodied member of a tribe participated in the gathering of wealth, the primary owners of goods were the chiefs and nobles. But these aristocrats were obliged to give away some of their riches in a potlatch. (The word is derived from a form of the verb '10 give" used by many of the tribes.) When a chief held a potlatch, he handed out much of his wealth to his guests, confident that he would be repaid as a guest at a later potlatch. One aim of such prodigal partying was to impress important neighbors; the recipients took the opportunity to evaluate him. He had to demonstrate inexhaustible wealth and generosity by distributing food and goods. If the event proved a fizzle - the presents too few and the feast skimpy - the host's position became precarious; on the other hand, a truly spectacular potlatch assured him of the loyalty of his people and of the support of neighboring chiefs. 69.

Passage 4 Born on November 8, 1732, in Talbot county, Maryland, John Dickinson was educated at home by a private tutor. In 1750 he began the study of law in the office of a leading Philadelphia lawyer and in 1753 went to London to continue his study in the Middle Temple, where he remained for four years. In 1762 he was elected to the Pennsylvania legislature where he ('Pposed violence and force between the colonies and Great Britain. As a member of the First and Second Continental Congresses, he worked for conciliation with Great Britain. He voted against the Declaration of Independence. But after it passed, he was one of the leaders in drafting the Articles of Confederation. In the Constitutional Convention Dickinson took an active and useful part. He felt that one branch of the legislature should be drawn from the people and that the other should be chosen by the legislatures of the states. He was opposed to a strong executive, feeling that such was not consistent with a republic and that a firm executive could only exist in a Jimited monarchy. He thought that representation in the national legislature, as it might affect states of different sizes must end in mutual agreement, but he hoped that each state would retain equal voice, at least in one branch. He thought the President should be removed on application of a majority of the state legislatures. He advocated a national judiciary distinct from that of the states and proposed that judges be removed by application of Congress. He objected, however, to granting judges the power to set aside law. He considered it inadmissible on every principle of honor and safety that the importation of slaves by the states should be authorized by the Constitution.

Passage 5 In the past oysters were raised in much the same way as dirt farmers raised tomatoes - by transplanting them. First, farmers selected the oyster bed, cleared the bottom of old shells and other debris, then scattered clean shells about. Next, they "planted" fertilized oyster eggs, which within two or three weeks hatched into larvae. The larvae drifted until they anached themselves to the clean shells on the bottom. There they remained and in time grew into baby oysters called seed or spat. The spat grew larger by drawing in seawater from which they derived microscopic particles of food. Before long, farmers gathered the baby oysters, transplanted them in other waters to speed up their growth, then transplanted them once more into another body of water to fatten them up. Until recently the supply of wild oysters and those crudely farmed were more than enough to satisfy people's needs. But today the delectable seafood is no longer available in abundance. The problem has become so serious that some oyster beds have vanished entirely.
Fortunately, as far back as the early 1900s, marine biologists realized that if new measures were not taken, oysters would become extinct or at best a luxury food. So they set up well-equipped hatcheries and went to work. But they did not have the proper equipment or the ski]] to handle the eggs. They did not know when, what, and how to feed the larvae. And they knew little about the predators that attack and eat baby oysters by the mi1lions. They failed, but they doggedly kept at it. Finally, in the 1940s a significant breakthrough was made. The marine biologists discovered that by raising the temperature of the water, they could induce oysters to spawn not only in the summer but also in the fall, winter, and spring. Later they developed a technique for feeding the larvae and rearing them to spat. Going still further, they succeeded in breeding new strains that were resistant to diseases, grew faster and larger, and flourished in water of different salinities and temperatures. In addition, the cultivated oysters tasted better! 87. What would be the best title for the passage? A The Threatened Extinction of Marine Life B. The Cultivation of Oysters C.

One of the primary materials used in the construction of buildings and roads is cement, a powder made primarily from limestone and clay. Even though ancient Egyptians and Romans used a kind of cement, it was not until 1824 that an English bricklayer developed a cement strong enough for modem roads and buildings. While experimenting in his kitchen, the bricklayer found that a mixture of limestone and clay that had been heated together formed a hard stonelike chunk as it cooled. When this substance was ground into a fine powder, it could be stored indefinitely. When the powder was mixed with water, it made an excellent quality of cement that quickly hardened in sunlight or even underwater. With only a few variations, this is how cement is made today. Questions 20 through 26 refer to the following biography.

Several years later, a miracle came into Helen's life when Anne Sullivan, a strong and loving person, became Helen's teacher. Miss Sullivan's teaching changed the near savage child into a responsible human being. Through her help, Helen Keller learned to communicate with those around her. And as she grew older, others benefited from her unique insights and courage. Miss Keller died in 1968, but her spirit lives on.

Passage I The cost of the First World War to the United States, exclusive of the loss of life and suffering involved and the' subsequent payments to veterans, runs into figures almost beyond human comprehension. Including nearly $9,500,000,000 lent to foreign governments, the direct cost for the three years following the declaration of war was around $35,500,000,000. This was three times the total expenditures of the federal government during the first 100 years of its existence, and over $1,000,000 an hour during the 25 months following the declaration of war. The first problem to be settled in financing the war was, "What proportion of the cost was to be borne by taxes, and what proportion by loans?" In other words, what part of the cost was to be placed on the backs of subsequent generations? As it turned out, about one-third was raised by taxation, and the rest by loans. Beginning with the War Revenue Bill, Congress raised the income, inheritance, and excise taxes, and inaugurated taxes on excess profits and luxuries. Congress, however, stood firm on the principle of low tariffs. The money that the government borrowed was obtained by means of four "Liberty Loans" and one "Victory Loan." Unlike their practice during former wars, the government made a direct appeal to the people, and by selling the bonds in
denominations as low as $50 received aid from millions who until then had never seen a government bond. Over 22,000,000 people subscribed to the "Fourth Liberty Loan." All ofthe loans were oversubscribed, and about 521,500,000,000 were allotted. Never during the war did the government suffer from inadequate funds or credit. 51. What is the main topic ofthe passage? A. The patriotism of the United States military B. One hundred years of United States finance C. Investment opportunities for the middle class D. Paying for the First World War 52. In line I, the expression "exclusive of' could best be replaced by A. considering B. restricted to C. not including D. unacceptable to 53. Which of the following is included in the $35,500,000,000 mentioned in the passage? A. Payments to retired soldiers B. Loans to foreign governments C. Interest payments on government bonds D. Salaries paid to members of Congress 54. In line 6, the word "its" refers to A. war B. hour C. declaration D. federal government 55. Which of the following represents the $1,000,000 mentioned in line 7 ? A. The hourly cost of the war for approximately two years B. One-third the amount spent by the federal government between 1776 and 1876 C. The amount raised through government bonds for the war effort D. The daily interest on short-term loans to foreign governments

Passage 2 To understand how the elaborate social systems of honeybees or ants may have arisen, let us consider first some members of the order Hymenoptera (bees, wasps, and ants) 'in which sociality is less highly developed, A female bee of the sub social genus Halictus constructs an underground
comb of up to 20 cells, lays an egg in each, provisions the cells with food, and then closes the nest, after which she may remain on guard until her offspring emerge, In some species the young bees leave and build their own nests elsewhere, but in
some they remain in the parental nest, enlarging it and laying their. Though there are no castes, and each female is capable of reproduction, there is a breakdown of spatial barriers; and the communal sharing of a nesting site can easily be imagined as the evolutionary forerunner of more complex social systems in other bees. At a more advanced stage of sociality are the bumblebees. Here again the nest is founded in spring by a single female. But unlike the offspring of the Halictus bee, the young that hatch from the founding bumblebee's eggs do not become reproductive in their own right; they serve as workers, enlarging the nest, gathering nectar and pollen, and caring for the young that hatch from later eggs laid by the founder. The founder, who remains in the nest as the queen, now devotes almost all her energy to egg laying. E.'entually there may by several hundred, or even a thousand, bees in the colony. As the season nears its end, some unfertilized eggs are laid that give rise to males, and some of the fertilized eggs give rise to queens when the young that hatch from them are treated in a special fashion. These new reproductive individuals fly out and mate. The bees in the old hive die with the advent of winter, but the fertilized young queens hibernate and found their own nests the next spring. Because bumblebees have division of labor correlated with sterile castes, they are said to be eusocial (i.e., truly social), but their colonies, which must be founded anew each year because they cannot survive the winters are by no means as complex as those of honeybees. 60. What is the best title for the passage? A Treatment of the Young by Halictus Bees and Bumblebees B. Division of Labor Among Halictus Bees and Bumblebees C. Nest Designs of Halictus Bees and Bumblebees D. Social System ofHalictus Bees and Bumblebees 61. According to the passage, what does a female Halictus bee generally do after closing a nest? A. Migrates to a warmer climate B. Constructs larger underground combs C. Returns to her parental nesting site D. Protects the nest until her offspring hatch 62. What trait of Halictus bees may have evolved into more complex social systems in other bees? A. The lack of a labor caste system B. The communal sharing of a nesting site C. The capacity of each female to reproduce D. The founding of the nest by a single individual
63.
Worker bumblebees do NOT A. lay eggs B. enlarge the nest C. care for younger bees D. collect food

Passage 3 The total quantity of fresh water on the Earth exceeds all conceivable needs of the human population. Much of the water is inaccessible or otherwise unavailable, however, and the remainder is unevenly distributed from place to place and from season to season. In most parts of the world, therefore, an adequate and reliable supply of water can be had only by active management of water resources, especially under conditions of intrinsic water scarcity. In order to meet the large demands of agriculture and industry and the small but imperative demand of domestic consumption, water must be collected, stored, allocated, and distributed. Water falls freely from the sky but, contrary to popular opinion, water is not free. Human intervention in the natural water cycle invariably entails some cost, and occasionally the cost is exorbitant. By far the most common method of controlling and augmenting the available water supply is to construct dams for impounding the seasonal floods of streams and rivers. Indeed, since the Neolithic period, human settlements have been clustered in the major river basins precisely because water is readily available there. Today, other techniques of water management are also feasible, such as tapping underground reservoirs and diverting rivers from one basin into another. The importance of limiting demand and improving the efficiency with which water is delivered to the site of ultimate use has also been recognized since the early twentieth century. A drawback common to practically all these methods of water management is a need for substantial capital investments. Dams, canals, and other devices for regulating the water cycle and compensating for geographical disparities in water resources are among the most elaborate and extravagant of all engineering projects. 69. What is the main topic of the passage? A. Water cycles B. Water shortages C. Water resource management D. Water retrieval engineering 70. According to the passage, the worldwide supply of water suitable for human use IS A. now inadequate B. declining rapidly C. not accurately measured D. more than sufficient
71. According to the passage, the most widely used technique for increasing the water supply is A digging wells B. building dams C. diverting rivers D. finding underground reservoirs 72. According to the passage, for how long have people settled in river basins to be near water? A Since prehistoric times B. Since the beginning of the twentieth century C. Since shortages of water were first publicized D. Since the development of modern engineering 73. The passage mentions all of the following as barriers to a plentiful water supply EXCEPT A inefficiency of water delivery systems B. the expense of building dams and canals C. uneven geographical distribution of water D. a decrease in annual rainfall 74. According to the passage, one major disadvantage of using artificial devices to intervene in the water cycle is that such devices require A. great engineering skill B. cooperation among nations C. large amounts of money D. long periods of time to completed 75. Where in the passage does the author compare the needs of industry, agriculture and those of private individuals for water? A. Lines 2-4 B. Lines 6-9 C. Lines 10-11 D. Lines 18-20 76. In the first paragraph, the word "inaccessible" is closest in meaning to which of the following? A. drinkable B. unapproachable
recyclable D. reusable
C.
77. In the second paragraph, the word "augmenting" is closest in meaning to which of the following? A. decreasing B. treating C. increasing D. cleaning
Passage 4
In 1907 a typical farm in the United States Com Belt consisted of about 160 acres of land on which the farmer grew com, oats, and hay, usually taking care to rotate the crops among the fields from year to year. Farmers generally kept horses, cattle, pigs, and poultry, which contributed to the operation in various ways. The family grew its own vegetables and kept a fruit orchard. Virtually all the labor was supplied by the farmer and the farmer's family, sometimes with the help of a hired person. Farm sales consisted mainly of meat, eggs, and milk. The family's purchases consisted mainly of wagons, harnesses, a few simple pieces of farm machinery, cloth and thread, and such items of food as flour, salt, sugar, and spices. Today the average Com Belt farm has from 500 to 750 acres of land on which the farmer grows mainly com, rotated every few years with soybeans. Livestock are either absent or few in number. Although most of the labor is still done by the family with occasional hired help, many specialized services are purchased. They include equipment repair, soil testing, fertilizer application, and crop spraying. Sales consist almost exclusively of the crops grown. The family's purchases have expanded to include large farm equipment, farm chemicals, almost all the seed for the crops, and essentially all the needs of the household. Indeed, the owner may not be a family now; it is likely to be a large corporation. 78. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Farming Then and Now B. Farming in the Early 1900s C. How to Make a Living from Farming D. The Advantage of Crop Rotation

Passage 5 Diamonds are the hardest substance on earth. The word "diamonds" comes from the Greek word adamas, meaning "cannot be conquered." The mineral is made up of pure carbon from deep within the earth under great pressure and temperature. A diamond is sought and treasured by everyone, from king and queen to the common man and woman. It is a symbol of strength, wealth and ever lasting love. A diamond's weight is measured in carats, equal to one-fifth of a gram. It is the wonderful 'fire' of diamonds that attracts all of us. The 'fire' is actually thought split by the diamond which reflects the colors of the spectrum. A diamond must be cut first in order to show this 'fire' and the cutting must be exact. Next the stone is carefully polished. Another diamond is used as a cutting tool. The largest diamond ever found was the Cullinan diamon

Oh yes. When I was young, I lived in Erie County, New York, and I used to go swimming in Lake Erie all the time. We also went to Lake Ontario in Canada. But I thought that Lake Erie was so polluted that almost everything living in it had died. At one time, Lake Erie was almost dead. There was so much algae that the oxygen supply was practically used up. It was the amount of phosphates in detergents that caused the successive 'growth of algae, wasn't it? Yes, but since both the United States and Canada have now limited phosphates in detergents, there have been tremendous gains in the fight against water pollution. In fact, all the Great Lakes will be ninety percent improved within the next generation. I'm glad to hear an environmental success story at last.
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following report. Man's traditional friend in the sea has been the porpoise, but this marine mammal is now endangered. Tuna fishermen threaten its very existence with their present fishing methods. Their strategy is to find tuna by locating the porpoises which usually swim close to the surface of the water above the tuna. Fishermen then set their nets for the tuna. In this way, catches of tuna tend to be large, but many porpoises are also accidentally caught in the nets and drowned. Tuna fishermen say that the killing of porpoises can't be helped if the industry is to survive. Conservationists, on the other hand, say that the porpoises can be saved if fishermen are more careful with their nets. Questions 21 through 25 refer to the following talk. I would like to conclude today's geography lecture with this brief bit of information. Have you ever wondered why some highways in the United States have names like Mohawk Trail? These highways are no longer trails, but they started out as such. Animals made paths to and from watering places and feeding grounds. Later, prehistoric Indian hunters followed the animals and widened the trails. Early settlers then used the same paths --first on foot, later on horseback Next. wagons were taken over the same trails, widening them even more. Then, railroad engineers found that often these same gently graded wagon roads provided the best routes for the railroads. Finally, when automobile roads were needed,
engineers often made use of some of the grades that the Indians had first discovered so long ago. For this reason, many highways now have Indian names in addition to their state or national designations.
Questions 26 through 29 refer to the following talk. Welcome to our city. I'm glad you could all take a break from your studies long enough to spend a few hours with us touring the city. We'll see lots of interesting sights today, ranging from famous landmarks to some little-known and out-of-the- way places that most tourists never see. We'll spend an hour or so at the state museum so that you can catch the highlights of their exhibits, Then we'll stroll through the oldest section of town where you'll get a feel for what the city was ]ike when it was first settled. After driving through what I am sure you'll agree is the most beautiful park you've ever been in, we'll stop off for a superb seafood dinner on the wharf You might be tired by tonight, but I guarantee that you'll feel like you've had a real vacation.
Questions 30 through 35 are based on the following lecture. Today, we're going to continue our discussion of agricultural products of the western United States by talking for a few minutes about raisins. Raisins are actually extremely sweet grapes, carefully dried in the sun. Few regions in the world produce raisins since the growers must have many weeks of hot, rainless; weather in which to dry the grapes. Parts of Southern California are ideal for cultivating these grapes since the period from August to November there is hot and dry. During the growing season, the nearby mountains provide water for irrigation. As the grapes ripen, they are cut from the vines and set in trays for drying. When the raisins are dry, they are packaged in boxes to be shipped to stores. Now, let's go on to some other agricultural products of California.

Passage 1 Icebergs are among nature's most spectacular creations, and yet most people have never seen one. A vague air of mystery envelops them. They come into being somewhere - in faraway, frigid waters, amid thunderous noise and splashing turbulence, which in most cases no one hears or sees. They exist only a short time and then slowly waste away just as unnoticed. Objects of sheerest beauty, they have been called. Appearing in an endless variety of shapes, they may be dazzlingly white, or they may be glassy blue, green or purple, tinted faintly or in darker hues. They are graceful, stately, and inspiring in calm, sunlit seas. But they are also called frightening and dangerous, and that they are - in the night, in the fog, and in storms. Even in clear weather one is wise to stay a safe distance away from them. Most of their bulk is hidden below the water, so their underwater parts may extend out far beyond the visible top. Also, they may ro11 over unexpectedly, churning the waters around them. Icebergs are parts of glaciers that break off, drift into the water, float about awhile, and finally melt. Icebergs afloat today are made of snowflakes that have fallen over long ages of time. They embody snows that drifted down hundreds, or many thousands, or in some cases maybe a million years ago. The snows fell in polar regions and on cold mountains, where they melted only a little or not at all, and so collected to great depths over the years and centuries. As each year's snow accumulation lay on the surface, evaporation and melting caused the snowflakes slowly to lose their feathery points and become tiny grains of ice. When new snow fell on top of the old, it too turned to icy grains. So blankets of snow and ice grains mounted layer upon layer and were of such great thickness that the weight of the upper layers compressed the lower ones. With time and pressure from above, the many small ice grains joined and changed to larger crystals, and eventually the deeper crystals merged into a solid mass of ice. 51.
Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Melting 'of Icebergs B. The Nature and Origin of Icebergs C. The Size and Shape of Icebergs D. The Dangers ofIcebergs

Passage 2 Born in 1830 in rural Amherst, Massachusetts, Emily Dickinson spent her entire life in the household of her parents. Between 1858 and 1862, it was later discovered, she wrote like a person possessed, often producing a poem a day. It was also during this period that her life was transformed into the myth at Amherst. Withdrawing more and more, keeping to the room, sometimes even refusing to see visitors who called, she began to dress only in white - a habit that added to her reputation as an eccentric. In their determination to read Dickinson's life in terms of a traditional romantic plot, biographers have missed the unique pattern of her life - her struggle to create a female life not yet imagined by the culture in which she lived. Dickinson was not the innocent, lovelorn, and emotionally fragile girl sentimentalized by the Dickinson myth and popularized by William Luce's 1976 play, The Belle of Amherst. Her decision to shut the door on Amherst society in the 1850s transformed her house into a kind of magical realm in which she was free to engage her poetic genius. Her seclusion was not the result of a failed love affair, but rather a part of a more general pattern of renunciation through which she, in her quest for self-sovereignty, carried on an argument with the Puritan fathers, attacking with wit and irony their cheerless Calvinist doctrine, their stem patriarchal God, and their rigid notions of' 'true womanhood." 60.

Which of the following is NOT'mentioned as being one of Emily Dickinson's eccentricities? A. Refusing to eat B. Wearing only white C. Avoiding visitors D. Staying in her room' 63. Why does the author mention William Luce's play? A. To give an example of the sentimentalized Emily Dickinson myth B. To show how popular Emily Dickinson's poems have become C. To show that Emily Dickinson was also an actress D. To illustrate the theatrical quality of Emily Dickinson's poems 64. According to the passage, biographers of Emily Dickinson have traditionally A. criticized most of her poems B. ignored her innocence and emotional fragility C. seen her life in romantic terms D. blamed her parents for restricting her activities 65. The author implies that many people attribute Emily Dickinson's seclusion to A. physical illness B. a failed love affair C. religious fervor D. her dislike of people 66.

Passage 3 Native Americans from the southeastern part of what is now the United States believed that the universe in which they lived was made up of three separate. but related, world: the Upper World, the Lower World, and This World. In the last there lived humans, most animals, and all plants. This World, a round island resting on the surface of waters, was suspended from the sky by four cords attached to the island at the four cardinal points of the compass. Lines drawn to connect the opposite points of the compass. from north to southCU1d from east to west. intersected This World to divide it into four wedge-shaped segments. Thus a symbolic representation of the human world was a cross within a circle, the cross representing the intersecting lines and the circle the shape of This ·World. Each segment of This World was identified by its own color. According to Cherokee doctrine. east was associated with the color red because it was the direction of the Sun, the greatest deity of all. Red was also the color of fire, believed to be directly connected with the Sun. with blood, and therefore with life. Finally, red was the color of success. The west was the Moon segment. It provided no warmth and was not life-giving as the Sun was. So its color was black. North was the direction of cold, and so its color was blue (sometimes purple). and it represented trouble and defeat. South was the direction of warmth~ its color. white, was associated with peace and happiness.
The southeastern Native Americans' universe was one in which opposites were constantly at war with each other, red against black, blue against white. This World hovered somewhere between the perfect order and predictability of the Upper World and the disorder and instability of the LOW'er World. The goal was to find some kind of halfway path, or balance, between those other worlds. 69. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. One Civilization's View of the Universe B. The Changing of the Seasons in the Southeast C. The Painting of Territorial Maps by Southeastern Native Americans D. The War Between Two Native American Civilizations 70.

Passage ~ It was not "the comet of the century" experts predicted it might be. Nevertheless, Kohoutek has provided a bonanza of scientific information. It was first spotted 370 million miles from Earth by an astronomer who was searching the sky for asteroids and after whom the comet was named. Scientists who tracked Kohoutek the ten months before it passed the Earth predicted the comet would be a brilliant spectacle. But Kohoutek fell short of these predictions, disappointing millions of amateur sky watchers when it proved too pale to be seen with the unaided eye. Researchers were delighted nonetheless with the information they were able to glean from their investigation of the comet. Perhaps the most significant discovery was the identification of two important chemical compounds - methyl cyanide and hydrogen cyanide - never before seen in comets, but found in the far reaches of interstellar space. This discovery revealed new clues about the

rhaouml:l1Oonql:l CU-TFP
origin of comets. Most astronomers agree that comets are primordial remnants from the fonnation of the solar system, but whether they were born between Jupiter and Neptune or much farther out toward interstelJar space has been the subject of much debate. If compounds no more complex than ammonia and methane, key components of Jupiter, were seen in comets, it would suggest that comets form within the planetary orbits. But more complex compounds, such as the methyl cyanide found in Kohoutek, point to formation far beyond the planets; there the deep freeze of space has kept them unchanged. 78.

It did not provide valuable scientific infonnation. D. It was moving too rapidly for scientists to photograph. 81. Before the investigation of Kohoutek, where had methyl cyanide been known to exist? A. In comets B. On asteroids C. Between Jupiter and Neptune D. Beyond the Earth's solar system 82. According to the passage, what is one major component of Jupiter? A. Hydrogen cyanide B.

Passage 5 American Indians played a central role in the war known as the American Revolution.

Questions t 1 through 15 refer to the following dialogue. M: Have you ever visited a redwood forest? ) recently had a chance to go to Muir Woods National Monument, north of San Francisco. W: I've never seen a redwood tree. I really can't imagine how big they are.
M:
W: M. W: M: W: M:
W:
The coastal redwoods are the taBest living things. Some are more than 350 feet high, but none of the trees in Muir Woods is that tall. You have to go further north in California to see the tallest trees. You said that Muir Woods is near San Francisco? r guess it must be quite a tourist attraction. Yes, It's less than an hour's drive away, so it's easy to get to. I've heard that many redwood trees are thousands of years old. Are the ories in Muir Woods that old? The oldest documented age for a coastal redwood is more than 2,000 years. The trees in Muir Woods are 400 to 800 years old. Why have they survived so long? They have remarkable resistance to forest fires. Their tough, thick bark protects the tree during a fire. The coastal redwoods also like a damp, foggy climate. Then, since Muir Woods is near foggy San Francisco, it must be ideal for the tree's survival. I can't wait to go there and see them.

The ] 970's search for alternative energy sources had a counterpart some 2,500 years ago in Greece and Rome-according to three California researchers who say the reason for the search then was a shortage of wood, not oil. In an extensive study of ancient Greek and Roman archaeological and literary records, the researchers found documentation for the extensive use of solar power to heat homes, .baths and greenhouses, when wood, then the main energy source, became scarce. Solar-oriented architecture was widely adopted for individual houses and even for cities. The results ofthe study suggest that the use of solar heat is probably applicable to modem urban settings.

W: It waS difficult, but the articles we were supposed to look at before class made it a little easier. M: Did you understand what Professor AHen meant when he said neutrinos were originally thought to have no mass, but now some scientists believe that they do? W: Sure. In 1956, when neutrinos were first detected, scientists reported that they were nothing more than bits of energy. They said that neutrinos had no mass. M: Fine. So neutrinos were just energy. What made the scientists change their minds? W: Recent research has shown that neutrinos can change from one form to another. Do you remember that law of physics that says a particle must have mass in order to change into another particle? M: Oh, sure. So what Professor Allen was saying was that neutrinos must have mass because they changed form. They aren't simply energy after aIL Next time, ['II be sure to do the homework.

Passage 1
The classic Neanderthals, who lived between about 70,000 and 30,000 years ago, shared a number of special characteristics. Like any biological population, Neanderthals also showed variation in the degree to which those characteristics were expressed. Generally, they were powerfully built, short and stocky, with the lower parts of their arms and legs short in relation to the upper parts, as in modern peoples who live in cold environments. Neanderthal skulls were distinctive, housing brains even larger on average than those of modern humans, a feature that may have had more to do with their large, heavy bodies than with superior intelligence. Seen from behind, Neanderthal skulls look almost spherical, but from the side they are long and flattened, often with a bulging back. The Neanderthal face, dominated by a projecting and full nose, differed clearly from the faces of other hominids; the middle parts appear to be pulled forward (or the sides pulled back), resulting in a rather streamlined face shape. This peculiarity may have been related to the greater importance (in cultural activities as well as food processing) of the front teeth, which are large and part of a row of teeth that lies well forward in the head; it may reflect a reduction in importance of certain jaw muscles operating at the sides of the face; or it may reflect an adaptation to cold. Whether it results from any or aJi of these three factors or from other, undiscovered causes, this midfacial projection is so characteristic that it unfailingly identifies a Neanderthal to the trained eye. Neanderthal teeth are much more difficult to characterize: the front teeth are large, with strong roots, but the back teeth may be relatively small. This feature may have been an adaptation to cope with heavy tooth wear. 51.
What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The eating habits of the Neanderthals B. A comparison ofvarious prehistoric populations C. The physical characteristics of the Neanderthals D. The effect of climate on human development
52.
The author describes the Neanderthal as being all ofthe following EXCEPT A. short B. swift C. strong D. stocky
53. Which of the following most likely accounts for the fact that the Neanderthal brain was larger than that of the modem human? A. The relatively large size of the Neanderthal's body B. The superior intelligence of the Neanderthal C. The swelling behind the Neanderthal's head D. The Neanderthal's midfacial projection 54. Where in the passage does the author specifically stress the contrast between the Neanderthal face and that of other biologically related populations? A. Lines 1-4 B. Lines 9-10 C. Lines 11-13 D. Lines 21-23 55. Which of the following explanations is NOT cited as a possible explanation ofthe Neanderthal's streamlined face shape? A. Some jaw muscles had limited use. B. The facial features were well adapted to the cold. C. The front teeth were particularly important. D. The nose was set far back in the skull. 56. The phrase "the trained eye" in line 20 most likely refers to which of the following professionals? A. An optometrist B. A dentist C. An anthropologist D. A photographer 57. The author uses the expression "heavy tooth wear" to imply that Neanderthals A. had unusually heavy teeth B. used their teeth extensively C. regularly pulled out their teeth D. used teeth for ornamentation 58. The paragraph following this passage most probably discusses A. other features of the Neanderthal anatomy B. cave paintings of prehistoric time C. flora and fauna of 70,000 years ago D. difficulties in preserving fossils
59. In the first paragraph, the word 'bulging' could be replaced by which of the following? A. runmng B. swelling C. threatening D. .confusing
Passage 2 Scattered through the seas of the world are billions of tons of small plants and animals called plankton. Most of these plants and animals are too small for the human eye to see. They drift about lazily with the currents, providing a basic food for many larger animals. Plankton has been described as the equivalent of the grasses that grow on the dry land continents, and the comparison is an appropriate one. In potential food value, however, plankton far outweighs that of the land grasses. One scientist has estimated that while grasses of the world produce about 49 billion tons of valuable carbohydrates each year, the sea's plankton generates more than twice as much. Despite its enormous food potential, little effort was made until recently to farm plankton as we farm grasses on land. Now, marine scientists have at last begun to study this possibility, especially as the sea's resources loom even more important as a means of feeding an expanding world population. No one yet has seriously suggested that plankton-burgers may soon become popular around the world. As a possible farmed supplementary food source, however, plankton is gaining considerable interest among marine scientists. One type of plankton that seems to have great harvest possibilities is a tiny shrimplike creature called krill. Growing to two or three inches long, krill provide the major food for the giant blue whale, the largest animal ever to inhabit the Earth. Realizing that this whale may grow to 100 feet and weigh 150 tons at maturity, it is not surprising that each one devours more than one ton of krill daily. Krill swim about just below the surface in huge schools sometimes miles wide, mainly in the cold Antarctic. Because of their pink color, they often appear as a solid reddish mass when viewed from a ship or from the air. Krill are very high in food value. A pound of these crustaceans contains about 460 calories about the same as shrimp or lobster, to which they are related.
If the krill can feed such huge creatures as whales, many scientists reason, they must certainly be contenders as a new food source for humans. 60. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage? A. The .author presents the advantages and disadvantages of plankton as a food source. B. The author quotes public opinion to support the argument for farming plankton. C. The author classifies the different food sources according to amount of carbohydrate. D. The author makes a general statement about plankton as a food source and then moves to a specific example. 61. According to the passage, why is plankton more valuable than land grasses? A It is easier to cultivate. B. It produces more carbohydrates. C. It does not require soil. D. It is more palatable. 62. Why does the author mention "plankton-burgers"? A. To describe the appearance of plankton B. To show how much plankton a whale consumes C. To suggest plankton as a possible food source D. To show the food values of beef and plankton 63. Blue whales can weigh how much at maturity? A Oneton B. Forty tons C. One hundred and fifty tons D. Four hundred and sixty tons 64. What is one distinguishing feature of krill? A. They are the smallest marine animals. B. They are pink in color. C. They are similar in size to lobsters. D. They have grasslike bodies.
65. All of the following are cited as reasons why plankton can be a human food EXCEPT that it is A. high in food value B. in abundant supply in the oceans C. an appropriate food for other animals D. free ofchemicals and pollutants 66. Where is plankton first compared to land grasses? A. Lines 2-4 B. Lines 5-6 C. Lines 15-16 D. Lines 19-20 67. In the second paragraph, the word 'potential' could be replaced by which of the following? A. didactic B. possible C. inconsistent D. opiate 68. In the fourth paragraph, the word 'supplementary' could be replaced by which of the following? A. dangerous B. sufficient C. additional D. zealous
Passage 3 During her New York days, Mabel Dodge had preached the gospel of Gertrude Stein and spread the fame of her new style. Like Miss Stein, Mabel Dodge had long planned to "upset America ... with fatal disaster to the old order of things." Gertrude 'Stein had no interest in anything that was not aggressively modern. She had conceived it as a part of her mission to "kill" the nineteenth century "dead," and she was convinced that her work was "really the beginning of modern writing." Her story "Melanctha" in Three Lives, privately printed in 1907, was the "first definite step," as she wrote later, "into the twentieth century." There was at least a grain (?flruth in this.

Just then the movement of modem art, so called for many years, was also beginning in Paris with Matisse and Picasso, and Gertrude Stein and her brother Leo were friends of these protagonists. The Steins had the means to buy their pictures. Gertrude shared, moreover, the point of view of these avant-garde artists, and she endeavored to parallel in words their effects in paint. Gertrude Stein wrote her '·'Melanctha" while posing for Picasso's portrait of herself. Picasso had just discovered African sculpture, previously interesting only to curio hunters, and this may have set her mind running on the Black girl Melanctha, whose story was the longest and most moving of her Three lives. It was not difficult to find in these a trace of the influence of African art, with the influence alike of Matisse and Picasso. 69. With what topic is the passage primarily concerned? A. Gertrude Stein's most important works B. The avant-garde community in New York C. Gertrude Stein's contribution to the development of modem literature D. The reactions of various critics to modem art and literature 70. The author uses the phrase "preached the gospel" at the beginning of the passage in order to emphasize Mabel Dodge's A. intense devotion to Gertrude Stein B. wide popularity with religious groups C. competitive feelings toward Gertrude Stein D. deep admiration for nineteenth-century, literature 71. According to the passage, Gertrude Stein was not interested m anything that was not A. controversial B. modern C. literary D. aggressive 72. According to the passage, Gertrude Stein planned to "kill" the nineteenth century by . A. ridiculing the writers of that period B. creating a form of writing for the twentieth century C. destroying all the books written during that period D. printing booklets promoting the merits of twentieth-century literature
73. The story "Melanctha" first appeared in the A mid-nineteenth century B. late nineteenth century C. early twentieth century D. mid-twentieth century 74. Which of the following' statements about the relationship between Gertrude Stein's and Henri Matisse's work can be inferred from the Passage? . ~ A. Matisse and Stein had very different ways of depicting reality. B. Matisse's later paintings were influenced by Stein's work. C. Steein preferred Matisse's work to that of other artists because it was more abstract. D. Stein tried to recreate in her writing the effects in Matisse's Paintings. 75. Which ofthe following is mentioned as one of Picasso's interest? A. African art B. Classical literature C. American art D. Modem literature 76. In the second paragraph, the expression 'grain of truth' could be replaced by which of the fol1owing? A. much of truth B. some but not much truth C. many kinds of crops D. inherent truth 77. In the fourth paragraph, the word 'avant-garde' could be replaced by which of the following? A. rich B. conservative C. moderate D. revolutionary

Passage 4 Years ago it was very difficult to travel from one place to another. The journeys were often long, tiring and dangerous. Today the picture had changed. Science has improved transportation and communication facilities a great deaL Travelling has become safer, more enjoyable and, above all, more economical. Traveling whether within one's s;ountry or abroad-brings many rewards. People travel for pleasure, business or for education and knowledge.
In the world of yesterday most people were only able to read about strange and fascinating places across the mountains and seas.

There are first class ships and airplanes to take him where his dreams lie. We travel to increase our knowledge of the world in which we live. Knowledge obtained from books alone is not enough. First-hand knowledge of different lands and people enriches our mind. Many books generally do not give us a very true picture of lands beyond our shores. Some of them are even misleading. Travelling will open our minds. When we visit other countries, we become ambassadors of our own. We not only learn about other countries, but we also show others a little of own. There is no better way to advertise one's country. 78.

PassageS Fortunately Schweitzer had a wonderful helper-his wife, Helene. He had met her at the University of Strassburg when she was studying to be a teacher. She, too, had dreamed about some special service to mankind and they had planned together over the years. When Schweitzer decided to go to Africa as a doctor, she took up nursirig in order to be a help to him in his work. So as he worked in the tiny hospital in the jungle she was always by his side or nearly helping him in every possible way. When Schweitzer made his decision to go Africa, he had given up three things. He had given up his music, his preaching and his teaching. His friends in Paris sent him a piano. For months he did not play on this instrument. He was busy with his medical work and the construction of new buildings for his rapidly growing practice. He felt, too, that if he began to play on this piano, he might want to go back to Europe. He did not want to be tempted, so he refused to play. One evening after a very difficult day he finally decided to play the piano. It was the only way he could find to relax. Besides, why shouldn't he use his spare time doing what he loved? Some day he would need to go back to Europe to raise funds for the hospital. If he kept on practice, he could perhaps give concerts and raise money for his work in Africa. From that time on he would often sit down after a hard day's work and play for hours at a time. He would be tired when he was through, but he would feel refreshed.
As time moved along he was accepted by other missionaries in the part of Africa. He was allowed to do his preaching. Schweitzer was very pleased with this. Now he could preach through words as well through deeds. 86.

Qu~tions
28 through 31 are based on the following talk.
One of my main goals in tbis survey course of American pamtmg, sculpture, and architecture is to train you to see. I want you to increase your stock of visual experiences by using the slide library at least five hours a week. The library, which is maintained by the Art History Department, is located in the basement of the Art Center and is open seven days a week. By the end of this course, I expect you to be able to identify 2,000 slides-of various American works of art. Slide. identification questions will appear on the weekly exams and the final. During each of the ten weeks of this course, I will show a set of 200 slides during my lectures. You should plan on looking at each set twice in the slide library, once before the week's lectures and once after. This pattern of three exposures will improve your visual memory. Please do not remove the slides from the slide library. Doing so is cause for dismissal from the course. Although becoming familiar with 2,000 slides may sound difficult, experience has shown me that this is the best way to increase the visual abilities of students, such as yourselves, who have never taken an art history course before.
Questions 32 through 35 refer to the following talk about libraries. The earliest library in the United States was established at Harvard University, the nation's oldest institution of higher learning. The library was set up in 1638 with 400 books given by a young minister named John Harvard. Most people in those days who wanted to read subscribed to circulating libraries. These libraries were stocked with books from England. There was little publishing in the colonies at that time, although the earliest printing done here dates from 1647. By the time of the American Revolution, there were twenty-nine public libraries in the thirteen colonies. The Library of Congress was established in 1800, and the first children's library opened its doors in Dublin, New Hampshire, in 1822. Today, libraries are found in almost every community. Furthermore, library services have expanded into specialized areas, such as books for the blind, for the hospitalized, and for prisoners. Towns too small to support their own libraries often share the services of a library on wheels, called a bookmobile, which brings books to a number of communities.

The Chinese fill the bottles with _40_ liquid and line them up to form beautiful figurines 41_ peacocks and flowers. If this is not yet enough to _42_ you, how about a statue of the goddess of Mercy (whom Thais call Guan-im) who blinks her eyes, turns a little bit, and sprinkles perfumed water on onlookers? The Goddess is most popular among Thai fairgoers as they take turns standing stageside, 43 their hands in the air, and _44~ awaiting the sprinkling of holy water on them.

Passage 1 For more than 60 years the tropical Indonesian island of Bali has been portrayed to the outside world as a heavenly paradise where a strong culture and sense of community protect its inhabitants from the rigors of the modem world. It is an image supported by many millions of dollars from the international hotel community which provides luxury accommodation and facilities for nearly a million foreign visitors now travelling annually to the holiday island. Yet behind the marketing hype lies another story - one which exists in stark contrast to the sun, sand and sea "dream". The truth is that the lives of Bali's 2.7 million local inhabitants are often marked by poverty, suffering and family strife. Ketut is a 22-year-old maid who works part-time for an expatriate resident in Ubud, in the center of the island. Her husband works as a driver for a white-water rafting company which provides day trips to tourists. "Sometimes I have no money for my baby because my husband gambles all his wages," she says, adding she has twice left the family compound and returned to live with her mother in Kintamani, in the north. Each time she has returned to her husband's family, where tradition dictates she must live. The husband's father, unfamiliar with Western support systems, combats his son's behavior by calling in the dukun, a spiritual "healer" who makes offerings to the "bad" spirits at play in his mind.

This same family has also had to deal with Bali's rapid acceleration into the 20th century world of business, exacerbated by an enormous volume of investment made in the island by property developers out to make a fast buck from a massive influx of tourists. "Ten years ago we sold our land to another Balinese man for 50,000 rupiah per acre," says Wayan, mother of four. "Now the same land is worth 15 million rupiah per acre, and we have nothing. " Bali's image as an earthly paradise was first created by the writers and artists who visited the island in the 1930s, according to University of New South Wales lecturer Adrian Vickers in his widely acclaimed book, Bali, A Paradise Created. "Decades of tourist promotion, travel and academic writing bear down on the island, making the image almost irrefutable," says Mr. Vickers. " National Geographic, presidents, prime ministers, anthropologists film-makers and poets are all too much to argue with," he says. One 1930s writer, Helen Eva Yates, described the island as "aJorgonen medieval community where sun-bronzed women dress as Eve, a land where nobody hurries, and all is peace". The image continues to this day, but the reality is often different. One Balinese girl, a barmaid, has had three abortions in the last two years. She has just turned 18. "It shows they are able to bear children, which is necessary in our culture," said her Balinese employer. Unfortunately, none of the girl's Balinese suitors were prepared to marry her. Prostitution and drug use are also becoming more common in Bali as an increasing number of girls from all over the Indonesian archipelago discover they can make fast money from the island's booming trade in foreign tourists. Once a problem more associated in Asia with Thailand and the Philippines, Bali is now coming under increasing pressure from a growing trade in sex. "There is one part of the island which is a maze of brothels," said a long -term expatriate resident. "Prostitutes are obvious in many bars and discos." Bali's problems are not confined to the Balinese. The island's image as a spiritual retreat continues to draw a healthy number of European, American and Australian travelers in search of self-revelation amid the undeniably beautiful landscape and ceremonial life. As long as they comply with visa restrictions, they are entitled to stay. Some, however, never leave. A 34-year-old called David arrived in Bali in 1992 with his girlfriend. He soon dropped into a thriving nightlife scene in Legian, a beach community on Bali's southern coast, found a drugs supplier, bought himself a classic Mercedes and indulged himself in an endless round of parties. Last year he died after consuming a lethal mixture of heroin and cocaine.
With the influx of tourists has also come the problem of pollution. One Australian sewage treatment expert - who asked not to be named - estimated 80 per cent of all hotels near Kuta beach, the island's most popular resort area, disgorge untreated liquid waste directly into the sea. A cholera scare late last year brought home the scale of the problem. Following an unsubstantiated report in a Japanese newspaper,thousands of tourists from that country boycotted the island for fear of catching the disease. Many hotels in the luxury resort enclave ofNusa Dua are still suffering from the effect ofthe cholera rumors. At the end of the day, says one travel industry expert, it may be the tourists who are to blame for the flaws in the island's magical image: "Bali is known around. the world as a tropical resort island with a stunning local culture. Nobody wants to hear about its problems, especially while they are on holiday." That is cold comfort to 20-year-old Nyoman, a Balinese prostitute from the west of the island. "If my parents found out what I do for a living they would kill me, II she said. 51.

Passage 2 "ALL my works, all my operas contain one painful love," wrote the Czech composer Janacek. Janacek, who died in 1928, was tortured by unrequited passion for a married woman 37 years his junior, Kamila Stosslova. Kamila was Janacek's muse; from his adoration and torment poured the musical masterpieces that made his name. Janacek is not the only one of the poets, artists, musicians and authors whose greatest works were inspired by love, and whose craving for someone usually inaccessible - dominated their lives. The romance with which Charles Dodgson surrounded young Alice Liddell resulted in the classic children's tales 'Alice in the Wonderland' and 'Through the Looking Glass', which appeared under his pen name, Lewis Carroll. Poet Robert Graves drew inspiration from a series of young and attractive muses who threatened or destroyed his marriages and confused his children. Graham Greene, at the age of 20, played Russian roulette after his first love, Gwendoline Howell, 30, wed her fiancee. The first edition volume of his first book, Bobbling April, bears the inscription in Greene's own hand: "From Graham Greene to GHS, to whom the little that is good here belongs by right." It seems that unfulfilled love produces excellent creative results. Would Ludwig van Beethoven have composed his greatest works if he had not been torn with longing for romantic fulfillment? Beethoven wrote in his personal diaries: "Only love, yes! Love alone can give you a happier life. 0 God grant me the grace to find her at last, the woman who will strengthen me in virtue and whom I can possess with a quiet conscience." The composer may have been infatuated with a woman named Antonie Brentano, to whom his poem 'Immortal Beloved', discovered after his death in 1827, may have been addressed. "Be calm - love me - today - yesterday - what tearful longings for you - my life - my all - farewell. Oh continue to love me never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved - ever thine - ever mine ever ours." Composer Robert Schumann's passionate devotion to his fiancee, Clara, and anguish that the marriage was opposed by her father Friedrich Wieck resulted, says author Basil Howitt, in some of his most stupendous work. "Intense and

Passage 3 Film director Oliver Stone is embroiled in another controversy, over his latest film, Nixon. Some say the film rides roughshod over the truth. Winnie Chung meets Hollywood's bad boy. The Watergate scandal has just broken and White House aide Alexander Haig hands over the damning tapes to Richard Nixon in the darkened Lincoln Sitting Room at the White House. Fumbling with the tapes, Nixon launches into a tirade, ending with: " ... they jump an over me 'cause it's Nixon ... they've always hated Nixon." This is the opening scene from Oliver Stone's 190-minute dramatization of the life of the 37th President of the United States. That one line probably sums up how unpopular Nixon felt he was in the eyes of the American public, a
sentiment Stone can probably relate to. Like Nixon, it seems the controversial director has become America's favorite whipping boy, the man they all love to hate. He cannot seem to do anything right in the eyes of America. Stone knows it, even if he is a little perplexed by it. "The press has given me a hard time, especially in America," said the director, who flew into the territory for a short, private visit last week. "I've taken a lot of hard knocks. Sure, I . feel whipped and I have a lot of scars. " Mixing Nixon and Stone together was a lethal cocktail: America's most controversial president and Hollywood's bad boy director. It is probably fair to say that had any other director made the film, they would never have created the amount of controversy that Stone has. A lot of it, he feels, is because people have confused the films' messages with the messenger: linking his personality with his movies. "The bad boy tag I can live with. I've become accustomed to it. But . . . the press in America has personalized me and I don't even know why," he said. "In Platoon, I was a macho, tough guy who didn't like women and all that stuff. "In The Doors, I was Jim Morrison - excessive, drugs, I couldn't be reined in . . . they're confusing me with the subject. In JFK I became a conspiracy nut." Attempts by the press to analyze his psyche amuse Stone at times, but on the whole he wishes the spotlight would swing from him to his work. "They talk about other film-makers' works and techniques, but my subject ideas are so subject to interpretation because I tend to choose things that evoke strong emotions. " Perhaps Stone has become bigger than his films? "That may be good at the end of the day when I'm an old man, but it's not good for me now because I make good films."
Despite his long track record in Hollywood, Stone is still stunned by the ferocity of the attacks made against him, ranging from being nutty to unpatriotic. With Nixon, Stone has now become" paranoid", a man who "hated the press" and ran around with "a list of enemies". "They were all saying, 'May Oliver Stone rot in Hell, may Oliver Stone rot in Hell,," he said, with a wry laugh. "They don't want a film-maker to deal with contemporary history. That's a shame.
"The problem with the country is that the historians are all in consensus. They want their tenure at the university, get their awards, be in the Historical Review. They don't want to push the edges of the envelope and be respected in their lifetime so they will never explore the shadows of the Nixon presidency .... I think the historians of this era are pretty limited." "Not that I'm a historian, but movie~makers have a right - given the lack of scholarship - to interpret (history) as a dramatist has a right to interpret it, which isn't to say that this is definitive or is history." Much of the fuss over Nixon has been the liberties the two-time Oscar winner took in condensing history and the conjectures he made with regard to events that happened behind closed doors, something he admits to readily. "I don't believe in censorship. We're dramatists and [ think a dramatist can distort if he wants to. But I don't think I'm distorting. We're sticking to the spirit of the truth. " "A dramatist is responsible (for doing) his homework, to research and read up everything he can on the subject matter and we have done that." Stone agreed that bringing Nixon to the screen probably opened up a lot of old wounds and reminded Americans of an embarrassing chapter in their history which many would prefer to be swept under the carpet. "It's a film we found was of limited interest to the public. The mainstream does not come. The kids don't care about Nixon, which is a shame. But for people my age, the psyche problem is that Nixon represents pain. Some people hate him and don't want to deal with him,.and some people like him and they think I distorted it," he said. "But my point was, let's go beyond loving or hating Nixon. II The reviews have not all been bad, of course. ln fact, Stone said, Nixon has probably received the best reviews he has had since Born On The Fourth Of July, for which he received an Academy Award for best director. Stone meshes real-life footage of the former president with new scenes so masterfully that it becomes difficult to tell them apart. Anthony Hopkins as Nixon is excellent and gives what may be his best performance since his chilling portrayal of the cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter in the Silence of the Lambs. Although Hopkins bears little resemblance to the former president, he manages to capture the tortured soul behind the rigid, repressed mask.
James Wood, who plays Nixon sidekick H. R. Haldeman, called Hopkins' performance "pure alchemy" and stage actress Joan Allen matches his performance stroke for stroke as the uptight Pat Nixon. After the attacks prompted by JFK and Nixon, Stone does not think he will be making another film about US Presidents for a while. "If I do there would be this chorus of 'there he goes again!' I am pre-censored and I hate that because there are so many good subjects that are important to the US. It seems to me now that I should work more with metaphors." "Maybe I should do period pieces or historical pieces that are farther away so that people don't relate so much to it. I am at a crossroads at the moment. I am cut off from what I do best, which is the melange that I do. I managed to (create) a documentary-kind of look in a drama and people were confused. Instead of going along with the ride and enjoying it, purists get upset. I think I did it too well. I really do." 83. Oliver Stone feels America: A adores him B. doesn't like him C. is indifferent to him D. should rot in hell 84. The main point of paragraph 6 is to: A describe Stone's past films B. suggest that Stone gets mixed up with the subjects of his films C. imply that Stone has been landed with the 'bad boy tag' D. suggest that Stone is as crazy as the subjects of some of his films 85. Stone thinks that historians are: A useful in reassessing critically recent American history B. writing definitive historical books on contemporary history C. more interested in professional advancement than truth D. producing respectable history which future generations will admire 86.

M: This is the green line subway to the shopping mall and northern suburbs. If you want to go to the airport, you're on the wrong train. Get off at this station and catch the ,next gray line train to the airport.
Questions 11 through 14, are based on the following talk. Good morning. As part of your orientation to campus life, the dean's office has scheduled this short tour of the medical clinic and infirmary. We on the nursing staff hope that none of you get sick, but just in case you do become ill, we want you to know what procedures to follow. If you have a really bad cold, it's a good idea to have one of us check you over at the clinic. Several students last year didn't see a nurse about their bad colds. and they developed terrible coughs. It's possible to get pneumonia when you neglect a cough. If you do get something as serious as pneumonia, you'll have to come and stay in the infirmary. A doctor visits the infirmary regularly. On the other hand, it you just have an ordinary cold, you can usually stay in your dormitory room. Many students try to keep up with their usual activities when they don't feel well. As a result they often get much sicker. I think it's wise to rest more and skip a few classes. If you are ill, you can always get a medical excuse from one ofus or from the doctor. The clinic hours are from nine to twelve every weekday morning, but there's an emergency number you can call any time. The emergency number is on the front of your campus telephone book. You'll find a phone book in each dormitory room. Before we start on our tour of the infirmary, do you have any questions?
Questions 15 through 18 refer to the following conversation. Oh! Am I glad to see you! You took Introduction to Science, didn't you? I sure did. Well, I'm thinking about taking it next year. Don't do it. Why not? Is the professor awful? The professor is nice enough, but the course is nothing but physics and chemistry with lots of equations. You can't just mix the right chemicals and watch what happens. As you go along, you have to keep careful notes, and tum it all into a 'bunch of numbers and formulas after an experiment is over. It was the worst course I've ever taken. W: I like formulas and numbers. M: Well, you'll love this. But all I was interested in was biology, and we didn't get to that till the last three weeks of class. What a year! W: M: W: M: W: M:
Questions 19 through 23 refer to the following talk. W: Hi, John. I haven't seen you for a few weeks. M: Oh, hi, Mary. I've been studying a lot for my final exams. W: Well, the semester is almost over now. M: Ye~h. My brother's coming for a visit this summer, and we'd like to see some of the country. But traveling is so expensive. W: Have you thought about camping? M: Camping! I've never done that. W: I think you'd really like it. You can rent the equipment you need. It's much cheaper than buying it or staying at a hotel. And being close to nature is a good way to forget about school for a while. M: What a good idea! We could drive until we find a nice spot and then just camp wherever we like. W: Well, not exactly. It's usually illegal unless you camp in a designated area. But there are many national parks, state parks, and even privately owned campgrounds around the country. M: But that takes all the fun out of it. W: Not really. Besides, there are almost always conveniences like showers at the. campgrounds to make it a little easier. It's a good way to make new friends, too. M: Sounds great. Here's my bus. I'll talk to you about this again and get all the details.
Questions 24 through 29 refer to the following lecture. Good morning, students. I hope you have been able to read the two books about speech and hearing problems that [ put in the library. Today's lecture deals with the presence of the unusually large deaf population that existed on the Massachusetts island of Martha's Vineyard for about three centuries. From the settlement of the island in the 1640's to the twentieth century, the people there, who were descended from only twenty-five or thirty original families, married mainly other residents of the island. They formed a highly inbred group, producing an excellent example of the genetic patterns for the inheritance of deafness. Indeed, in the late 1800's, one out of every twenty-five people in one village on the island was born deaf, and the island as a whole had a deafness rate at least seventeen times greater than that of the rest of the United States.
Even Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone and a prominent researcher into hearing loss, visited Martha's Vineyard to study the population. But, because the principles of genetics and inheritan~e' were still unknown, he was not able to explain the patterns of deafness and why a oeaf parent did not always have deaf children. In the twentieth century, the local population has mixed with people off the island and the rate of deafuess has fallen. Questions 30 through 35 are based on the following discussion. W: Come in, officer. M: I understand you had some things stolen. Can you tell me when it happened? W: Only a short time ago, sir. We left to go see a movie at eight o'clock or so. We were only gone a couple of hours and we called just after we got home. M: So, sometime between 8:00 and 10:00. What's missing? W: Small things: a camera, money, jewelry. They didn't take the really valuable things. 1 guess they didn't want to carry away anything big or heavy. M: Okay. I'll need a complete list. How did the thieves get in? W: Through the bedroom window. M: Was it locked or did they break it? W: The lock has been broken for some time. I've meant to have it fixed, but I kept forgetting. M: May I see it? All right. I'll file a report at the station. Please bring us a list of the stolen goods as soon as you can.
