(ID: 104718) Read the following passage and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer
sheet to indicate the correct answer to each for the questions.
The official residence of the president of the United States is the White House, located at
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, in Washington, D.C. The Commissioners of the District of Columbia
held a meeting in 1792 and decided to hold a contest for the best design for the Presidential
House. James Hoban, an architect born in Ireland, was the winner. His bid for the construction of
the mansion asked for $200,000, but the final cost of the building came to twice that amount. The
work on the project began during the same year, and the grounds of approximately one and a half
miles west of the Capitol Hill were chosen by Major Pierre-Charles L’Enfant, who was in charge
of city planning. However, the construction continued for several more years, and George
Washington had stepped down as president before the building was habitable. When John Adams,
the second president of the United States and his wife Abigail moved in 1800, only six rooms had
been completed.
The grey sandstone walls of the house were painted white during construction, and the

color of the paint gave the building its name. The building was burned on August 24, 1814, and
James Hoban reconstructed the house for President James Monroe and his family, who moved

there in 1817. The north portico was added to the building in 1829, water pipes were installed in
1833, gas lighting in 1848, and electricity in 1891. In 1948, inspectors announced that the
building was so dilapidated that it was beyond repair and suggested that it was cheaper to
construct a new one than repair the existing dwelling. However, the national sentiment was to
keep the original form intact, and Congress appropriated $5.4 million dollars for repairs. In
1961, Jacqueline Kennedy launched a program to redecorate the rooms and appointed a Fine
Arts Committee to make choices of furnishing and colors.
The house of the president accords its residents a great deal of space. The living quarters
contain 107 rooms, 40 corridors, and 19 baths. The White House contains a doctor’s suite, a
dentist’s office, a large solarium, a broadcasting room, and a two-floor basement for storage and

service rooms. The office in which the president works is not located in the White House, but in a
separate building called the West Wing. The White House stands on 16 acres of parklike land and
overlooks a broad lawn, flower gardens, and wood groves.

(ID: 104729) Read the following passage and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer
sheet to indicate the correct answer to each for the questions.
In the course of history, human inventions have dramatically increased the average amount of
energy available for use per person. Primitive people in cold regions burned wood and animal
dung to heat their caves, cook food, and drive off animals by fire. The first step toward the
developing of more efficient fuels was taken when people discovered that they could use
vegetable oils and animal fats in lieu of gathered or cut wood. Charcoal gave off a more intensive
heat than wood and was more easily obtainable than organic fats. The Greeks first began to use
coal for metal smelting in the 4th century, but it did not come into extensive use until the
Industrial Revolution.
In the 1700s, at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, most energy used in the United
States and other nations undergoing industrialization was obtained from perpetual and renewable
sources, such as wood, water streams, domesticated animal labor, and wind. These were
predominantly locally available supplies. By mid-1800s, 91 percent of all commercial energy
consumed in the United States and European countries was obtained from wood. However, at the
beginning of the 20th century, coal became a major energy source and replaced wood in
industrializing countries. Although in most regions and climate zones wood was more readily
accessible than coal, the latter represents a more concentrated source of energy. In 1910, natural
gas and oil firmly replaced coal as the main source of fuel because they are lighter and, therefore,

cheaper to transport. They burned more cleanly than coal and polluted less. Unlike coal, oil could
be refined to manufacture liquid fuels for vehicles, a very important consideration in the early
1900s, when the automobile arrived on the scene.
By 1984, nonrenewable fossil fuels, such as oil, coal, and natural gas, provided over 82
percent of the commercial and industrial energy used in the world. Small amounts of energy were
derived from nuclear fission, and the remaining 16 percent came from burning direct perpetual
and renewable fuels, such as biomass. Between 1700 and 1986, a large number of countries
shifted from the use of energy from local sources to a centralized generation of hydropower and
solar energy converted to electricity. The energy derived from nonrenewable fossil fuels has been
increasingly produced in one location and transported to another, as is the case with most
automobile fuels. In countries with private, rather than public transportation, the age of
nonrenewable fuels has created a dependency on a finite resource that will have to be replaced.
Alternative fuel sources are numerous, and shale oil and hydrocarbons are just two
examples. The extraction of shale oil from large deposits in Asian and European regions has
proven to be labor consuming and costly. The resulting product in sulfur-and nitrogen-rich, and
large-scale extractions are presently prohibitive. Similarly, the extraction of hydrocarbons from
tar sands in Alberta and Utah is complex. Semi-solid hydrocarbons cannot be easily separated
from the sandstone and limestone that carry them, and modern technology is not sufficiently
versatile for a large-scale removal of the material. However, both sources of fuel may eventually
