Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions from 22 to 28.
Music can bring us to tears or to our feet, drive us into battle or lull us to sleep. Music is
indeed remarkable in its power over all humankind, and perhaps for that very reason, no human
culture on earth has ever lived without it. From discoveries made in France and Slovenia, even
Neanderthal man, as long as 53,000 years ago, had developed surprisingly sophisticated,
sweet-sounding flutes carved from animal bones. It is perhaps then, no accident that music
should strike such a chord with the limbic system – an ancient part of our brain, evolutionarily
speaking, and one that we share with much of the animal kingdom. Some researchers even
propose that music came into this world long before the human race ever did. For example, the
fact that whale and human music have so much in common even though our evolutionary paths
have not intersected for nearly 60 million years suggests that music may predate humans. They
assert that rather than being the inventors of music, we are latecomers to the musical scene.

Humpback whale composers employ many of the same tricks that human songwriters do.
In addition to using similar rhythms, humpbacks keep musical phrases to a few seconds,

creating themes out of several phrases before singing the next one. Whale songs in general are
no longer than symphony movements, perhaps because they have a similar attention span. Even
though they can sing over a range of seven octaves, the whales typically sing in key, spreading
adjacent notes no farther apart than a scale. They mix percussive and pure tones in pretty much
the same ratios as human composers – and follow their ABA form, in which a theme is
presented, elaborated on and then revisited in a slightly modified form. Perhaps most amazing,
humpback whale songs include repeating refrains that rhyme. It has been suggested that whales
might use rhymes for exactly the same reasons that we do: as devices to help them remember.
Whale songs can also be rather catchy. When a few humpbacks from the Indian Ocean strayed
into the Pacific, some of the whales they met there quickly changed their tunes – singing the
new whales’ songs within three short years. Some scientists are even tempted to speculate that a
universal music awaits discovery.
Question 22: Why did the author write the passage?
A. To show that music is not a human or even modern invention
B. To describe the music for some animals, including humans
C. To suggest that music is independent of life forms that use it
D. To illustrate the importance of music to whales
Question 23: According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE of humpback whales?
A. they can sing over a range of seven octaves
B. their tunes are distinctively different from human tunes
C. they do not use rhyme, unlike humans
D. whale songs of a particular group cannot be learned by other whales
Question 24: The bold word “they” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.

A. human composers

B. whole songs

C. whales

D. octaves

Question 25: Which of the following is NOT true about humpback whale music?
A. It’s easy to learn by other whales
B. It’s in a form of creating a theme, elaborating and revisiting in rhyming refrains

the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 48.
Under certain circumstances, the human body must cope with gases at greater-thannormal atmospheric pressure. For example, gas pressures increase rapidly during a drive made
with scuba gear because the breathing equipment allows divers to stay underwater longer and
dive deeper. The pressure exerted on the human body increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10
meters of depth in seawater, so that at 39 meters in seawater a diver is exposed to pressure of
about 4 atmospheres. The pressure of the gases being breathed must equal the external pressure
applied to the body, otherwise breathing is very difficult. Therefore all of the gases in the air
breathed by a scuba diver at 40 meter are present at five times their usual pressure. Nitrogen,
which composes 80 percent of the air we breathe, usually causes a balmy feeling of well-being
at this pressure. At a depth of 5 atmospheres, nitrogen causes symptoms resembling alcohol
intoxication, known as nitrogen narcosis. Nitrogen narcosis apparently results from a direct

effect on the brain of the large amounts of nitrogen dissolved in the blood. Deep dives are less
dangerous if helium is substituted for nitrogen, because under these pressures helium does not
exert a similar narcotic effect.
As a scuba diver descends, the pressure of nitrogen on the lungs increases. Nitrogen then
diffuses from the lungs to the blood, and from the blood to body tissues. Nitrogen then diffuses
from the lungs to the blood, and from the blood to body tissues. The reverse occurs when the
diver surfaces, the nitrogen pressure in the lungs falls and the nitrogen diffuses from the tissues
into the blood, and from the blood into the lungs. If the return to the surface is too rapid,
nitrogen in the tissues and blood cannot diffuse out rapidly enough and nitrogen bubbles are
formed. They can cause severe pains, particularly around the joints.
Another complication may result if the breath is held during ascent. During ascent from a
depth of 10 meters, the volume of air in the lungs will double because the air pressure at the
surface is only half of what it was at 10 meters. This change in volume may cause the lungs to
distend and even rupture. This condition is called air embolism. To avoid this event, a diver
must ascend slowly, never at a rate exceeding the rise of the exhaled air bubbles, and must
