Today, I’d like to begin a discussion on the problem of the heating up of the earth. First,
we’ll touch on the relationship between fluorocarbons and the ozone layer. You probably
remember that the ozone layer is the protective shield around the earth. It is important to all
life, because it filters out harmful ultraviolet light from the sun. Ozone itself, a form of oxygen,

is regularly made by the action of the sun in the upper atmosphere. It is also regularly
destroyed by natural chemical processes.
The problem now is that too much of the ozone layer is being destroyed. Scientists
suspect that certain chemicals, such as fluoro-carbons, are contributing to the depletion of the
ozone layer. And how do we use fluoro-carbons? The most common uses are in spray cans
and cooling systems. The chemical pollution from these fluoro-carbons can account for some
of the ozone losses that have been reported. There are, however, new studies linking the sun
itself to the depletion of the ozone layer. We’ll go into that new study more next time.
Question 33. Who is the most likely speaker?
A. A doctor

B. A professor

C. A mechanic

D. A chemist

Question 34. What does the word "filters out" in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. stops

B. separates

C. prevents

D. keeps

C. Shields

D. Oxygen

Question 35. What is the ozone layer made of?
A. Ultraviolet light B. Fluorocarbons
Question 36. The speaker’s main topic is_________.
A. ultraviolet light

B. air-conditioning systems

C. the use of spray cans

D. fluoro-carbons and the ozone layer

Question 37. What will the speaker probably discuss next?
A. The make-up of the ozone layer.
B. Harmful effects of ultraviolet light.
C. How to make air conditioners with fluorocarbons.
D. The sun as a cause of ozone layer depletion.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B. C, or D on, your answer sheer to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Have you ever thought about inventing something? Did you worry that your idea was too
strange or unrealistic? Well, maybe you should think again. Strange or unrealistic ideas never
stopped Arthur Pedrick. Pedrick was a British inventor. Originally a government clerk, he
spent his retirement in the 1960s and 1970s developing new and unusual ideas. Some of these
ideas contradicted basic physics, but that didn’t stop Pedrick. One of his strangest ideas was a
plan to connect large tubes from the continent of Australia all the way to Antarctica, a distance

of 10,000 km! These tubes would carry giant ice balls from Antarctica to Australia. This ice
would then melt in the Australian desert, and the water would be used in irrigation. Another of
Pedrick’s inventions was a radio-controlled golf ball. A golfer could change the speed and
direction of the golf ball by small flaps, controlled by computer chips. Using radio waves, the
golfer could also find lost golf balls. Arthur Pedrick had thousands of bizarre ideas for
inventions, most of which were never built.
Though many of Pedrick’s inventions were never developed, a lot of other strange ideas
were. In 1989, a company designed and sold a theft-prevention device for expensive cars. As
part of this device, several tubes were attached to the bottom of a car. If someone tried to steal
the car, super hot flames would come out of the tubes and burn the car thief. Some people who
were not thieves, however, were seriously injured. They accidentally set off the device by
walking past the car. Other strange inventions include underwear for dogs and pens with
drinkable ink. The underwear keeps dogs from making a mess when they go out for a walk.
Also, if you are ever thirsty during a test, a pen with drinkable ink would be very handy! If
you have an idea that seems a little out in left field, don’t let that stop you from trying it.
You’ll be in good company.
Question 38. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Some inventions are very strange.
C. Inventions are necessary for a good life.

B. Some devices can help reduce crime.
D. Inventing something is easy.
