*Read the passage and mark the letter A,B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer
to each of the following questions (10)
Large animals that inhabit the desert have evolved a number of adaptations for reducing the effects
of extreme heat. One adaptation is to be light in color, and to reflect rather than absorb the Sun’s rays.
Desert mammals also depart from the normal mammalian practice of maintaining a constant body
temperature. Instead of trying to keep down the body temperature deep inside the body, which would
involve the expenditure of water and energy, desert mammals allow their temperatures to rise to what
would normally be fever height, and temperatures as high as 46 degrees Celsius have been measured in
Grant’s gazelles. The overheated body then cools down during the cold desert night and indeed the
temperature may fall unusually low by dawn , as low as 34 degrees Celsius in the camel. This is an
advantage since the heat of the first few hours of daylight is absorbed in warming up the body, and an
excessive buildup of heat does not begin until well into the day.
Another strategy of large desert animals is to tolerate the loss of body water to a point that would be
fatal for non – adapted animals. The camel can lose up to 30 percent of its body weight as water
without harm to itself, whereas human beings die after losing only 12 to 13 percent of their body
weight. An equally important adaptation is the ability to replenish this water loss at one drink. Desert
animals can drink prodigious volumes in a short time, and camels have been known to imbibe over 100
liters in a few minutes. A very dehydrated person, on the other hand, cannot drink enough water to
rehydrate at one session, because the human stomach is not sufficiently big because a too rapid dilution
of the body fluids causes death from water intoxication. The tolerance of water loss is of obvious
advantage in the desert, as animals do not have to remain near a water hole but can obtain food from
grazing sparse and far- flung pastures. Desert – adapted mammals have the further ability to feed
normally when extremely dehydrated, it is a common experience in people that appetite is lost even

under conditions of moderate thirst.
Question 11:What is the main topic of the passage ?
A. Weather variations in the desert
B. Adaptations of desert animals
C. Diseases of desert animals
D. Human use of desert animals
Question 12:According to the passage , why is light coloring an advantage to large desert animals?
A. It helps them hide from predators.
B. It does not absorb sunlight as much as dark colors.
C. It helps them see their young at night.
D. It keeps them cold at night.
Question 13:The word “ maintaining ”in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.
A. measuring B. inheriting C. preserving D. delaying
Question 14:The author uses Grant’s gazelle as an example of ________ .
A. an animal with a low average temperature
B. an animal that is not as well adapted as the camel

People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and
so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their
growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive
accuracy- one plate, one knife, one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are
capable of noting that they have placed five knives, spoons and forks on the table and, a bit

later, that this amounts to fifteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they

move on to subtraction. It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a
desert island at birth and retrieved seven years later, he or she could enter a second- grade
mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjustment.
Of course, the truth is not so simple. This century, the work of cognitive psychologists has
illuminated the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children
were observed as they slowly grasped – or as the case might be, bumped into- concepts that
adults take for granted, as they refused for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as
water pours from a short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have since demonstrated
that young children, asked to count the pencils in a pile , readily report the number of blue or
red pencils , but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the
rudiments of mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also suggested
that the very concept of abstract numbers – the idea of a oneness, a twoness, a threeness that
applies to any class of objects and is a prerequisite for doing anything more mathematically
demanding than setting a table - is itself far from innate.
Question 51: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Trends in teaching mathematics to children
B. The use of mathematics in child psychology
C. The development of mathematical ability in children
D. The fundamental concepts of mathematics that children must learn
Question 52:It can be inferred from the passage that children normally learn simple counting
A. soon after they learn to talk
B. by looking at the clock
C. when they begin to be mathematically mature
D. after they reach second grade in school
Question 53: The word “illuminated ” in line 11 is closest in meaning to
A. illustrated B. accepted C. clarified D. lighted
Question 54:The author implies that most small children believe that the quantity of water changes
when it is transferred to a container of a different
A. color B. quality C. weight D. shape
Question 55:According to the passage, when small children were asked to count a pile of red and

blue pencils they
A. counted the number of pencils of each color
B. guessed at the total number of pencils
C. counted only the pencils of their favorite color
D. subtracted the number of red pencils from the number of blue pencils
Question 56:The word “ They ” in line 17 refers to
A. mathematics B. children C. pencils D. studies
Question 57:The word “prerequisite ” in line 19 is closest in meaning to
A. reason B. theory C. requirement D. technique
Question 58:The word “ itself ” in line 20 refers to
A. the total B. the concept of abstract numbers
C. any class of objects D. setting a table
Question 59:With which of the following statements would the author be LEAST likely to agree?
A. Children naturally and easily learn mathematics.
B. Children learn to add before they learn to subtract.
C. Most people follow the same pattern of mathematical development.
D. Mathematical development is subtle and gradual.
Question 60:Where in the passage does the author give an example of a hypothetical experiment?
A. Lines 3- 6 B. Lines 7 -9 C. Lines 11- 14 D. Lines 17- 20
