Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B , C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the

The Planets of Jupiter
The largest of the giant gas planets, Jupiter, with a volume 1,300 times greater than Earth’s,
contains more than twice the mass of all the other planets combined. It is thought to be a gaseous
and fluid planet without solid surfaces, Had it been somewhat more massive, Jupiter might have
attained internal temperatures as high as the ignition point for nuclear reactions, and it would
have flamed as a star in its own right. Jupiter and the other giant planets are of a low-density type
quite distinct from the terrestrial planets: they are composed predominantly of such substances as
hydrogen, helium, ammonia, and methane, unlike terrestrial planets. Much of Jupiter’s interior
might be in the form of liquid, metallic hydrogen, Normally, hydrogen is a gas, but under
pressures of millions of kilograms per square centimeter, which exist in the deep interior of Jupiter,

the hydrogen atoms might lock together to form a liquid with the properties of a metal. Some
scientists believe that the innermost core of Jupiter might be rocky, or metallic like the core of
Earth.
Jupiter rotates very fast, once every 9.8 hours. As a result, its clouds, which are composed
largely of frozen and liquid ammonia, have been whipped into alternating dark and bright bands
that circle the planet at different speeds in different latitudes. Jupiter’s puzzling Great Red Spot
changes size as it hovers in the Southern Hemisphere. Scientists speculate it might be a gigantic
hurricane, which because of its large size (the Earth could easily fit inside it), lasts for hundreds of
years.
Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as it receives from the Sun. Perhaps this is primeval heat or

beat generated by the continued gravitational contraction of the planet. Another star like
characteristic of Jupiter is its sixteen natural satellites, which, like a miniature model of the Solar
System, decrease in density with distance from rocky moons close to Jupiter to icy moons farther
away. If Jupiter were about 70 times more massive, it would have become a star, Jupiter is the bestpreserved sample of the early solar nebula, and with its satellites, might contain the most
important clues about the origin of the Solar System.
Question 45: The word attained in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____.
A. attempted
B. changed
C. lost
D. reached
Question 46: The word they in paragraph 1 refers to _____.
A. nuclear reactions
B. giant planets
C. terrestrial
D. substances
Question 47: According to the passage, hydrogen can become a metallic-like liquid when it is
_____.
A. extremely hot
B. combined with helium
C. similar atmospheres
D. metallic cores
Question 48: According to the passage, some scientists believe Jupiter and Earth are similar in that
they both have _____.
A. solid surfaces
B. similar masses
C. similar atmospheres D. metallic cores
Question 49: The clouds surrounding Jupiter are mostly composed of _____.
A. ammonia
B. helium
C. hydrogen

D. methane
Question 50: It can be inferred from the passage that the appearance of alternating bands circling
Jupiter is caused by _____.
A. the Great Red Spot
B. heat from the Sun
C. the planet’s fast rotation
D. Storms from the planet’s Southern
Hemisphere
Question 51: The author uses the word puzzling in paragraph 2 to suggest that the Great Red Spot
is _____.
A. the only spot of its kind
B. not well understood
C. among the largest of such spots
D. a problem for the planet’s continued
existence
Question 52: Paragraph 3 supports which of the following conclusions?
A. Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as the Sun.
B. Jupiter has a weaker gravitational force than the other planets.
C. Scientists believe that Jupiter was once a star.
D. Scientists might learn about the beginning of the Solar System by Studying Jupiter.
Question 53: Why does the author mention primeval heat in paragraph 3?
A. To provide evidence that Jupiter is older than the Sun

B. To provide evidence that Jupiter is older than the other planets
C. To suggest a possible explanation for the number of satellites that Jupiter has
D. To suggest a possible source of the quantity of heat that Jupiter gives off
Question 54: Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?
A. If Jupiter had fewer satellites, it would be easier for scientists to study the planet itself.
B. If Jupiter had had more mass, it would have developed internal nuclear reactions.
C. If Jupiter had been smaller, it would have become a terrestrial planet.
D. if Jupiter were larger, it would give off much less heat.
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 question s from 55 to 64 .
Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of
communicating without using speech. Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in every
known culture. The basic function of signal is to impinge upon the environment in such a way that
it attracts attention, as. For example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit. Coded to refer to
speech, the potential for communication is very great. Less adaptable to the codification of words,
signs also contain meaning in and of themselves. A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning
quickly and conveniently. Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs
because of their intricate relationship with the receiver’s cultural perceptions. In some cultures,
applauding in a theater provides performers with an auditory symbol of approval. Gestures such
as waving and handshaking also communicate certain cultural messages.
Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major
disadvantage. They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly
adjacent to the receiver. As a result, means of communication intended to be used for long
distances and extended periods are based upon speech. Radio, television, and the telephone are
only a few.
Question 55: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Gestures
B. Signs and signals
C. Speech
D. Communication

Question 56: What does the author say about speech?
A. It is dependent upon the advances made by inventors.
B. It is the most advanced form of communication.
C. It is necessary for communication to occur.
D. It is the only true form of communication.
Question 57: According to the passage, what is a signal?
A. A form of communication that interrupts the environment.
B. The most difficult form of communication to describe
C. A form of communication which may be used across long distances.
D. The form of communication most related to cultural perception.
Question 58: The phrase “ impinge upon” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
_______________.
A. prohibit
B. intrude
C. vary
D. improve
Question 59: The word “it” in paragraph refers to _______________.
A. way
B. environment
C. function
D. signal
Question 60: The word “ potential” in paragraph 1 could be replaced by ______________.
A. advanced
B. possibility
C. organization
D. signal

Question 61: The word “intricate” in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by ________
A. inefficient
B. complicated
C. historical
D. uncertain
Question 62: Applauding was cited as an example of ______________.
A. a signal
B. a sign
C. a gesture
D. a symbol
Question 63: Why were the telephone, radio, and television invented?
A. Because people were unable to understand signs, signals, and symbols.
B. Because people wanted to communicate across long distances.
C. Because people believed that signs, signals, and symbols were obsolete.
D. Because people wanted new forms of communication.
Question 64: It may be concluded from this passage that___________.
A. only some cultures have signs, signals, and symbols
B. signs, signals, symbols, and gestures are forms of communication
C. symbols are very easy to define and interrupt
D. waving and handshaking are not related to culture

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.
Every drop of water in the ocean, even in the deepest parts, responds to the forces that create
the tides. No other force that affects the sea is so strong. Compared with the tides, the waves
created by the wind are surface movements felt no more than a hundred fathoms below the
surface. The currents also seldom involve more than the upper several hundred fathoms
despite their impressive sweep.
The tides are a response of the waters of the ocean to the pull of the Moon and the more
distant Sun. In theory, there is a gravitational attraction between the water and even the
outermost star of the universe. In reality, however, the pull of remote stars is so slight as to be
obliterated by the control of the Moon and, to a lesser extent, the Sun.
Just as the Moon rises later each day by fifty minutes, on the average, so, in most places, the
time of high tide is correspondingly later each day. And as the Moon waxes and wanes in its
monthly cycle, so the height of the tide varies. The tidal movements are strongest when the
Moon is a sliver in the sky, and when it is full. These are the highest flood tides and the lowest
ebb tides of the lunar month and are called the spring tides. At these times the Sun, Moon,

and Earth are nearly in line and the pull of the two heavenly bodies is added together to bring

the water high on the beaches, to send its surf upward against the sea cliffs, and to draw a
high tide into the harbors. Twice each month, at the quarters of the Moon, when the Sun,
Moon and Earth lie at the apexes of a triangular configuration and the pull of the Sun and
Moon are opposed, the moderate tidal movements called neap tides occur. Then the
difference between high and low water is less than at any other time during the month.

The forest‘s basement is a secret world. As different from our own world as water is from air, the
soil seems quiet, even dead. But life bustles down below: a cubic inch of topsoil may contain
billions of creatures.
Predators and prey roam beneath as well as above the forest floor. Furthermore, those upstairs
and downstairs forest denizens live closely linked lives soil-dwelling bacteria and fungi break
down deal organic matter into molecules that above ground plants use for food. Those plants, as
well as animals, mature and die, leaving more organic matter to fuel the folks downstairs.
Like a well -insulated house, the soil protected its tenants from extreme temperatures, and from
rain and snow. It also provides a bulwark against predators that roam the surface world. But the
dense, protecting soil also limits mobility. Soil creatures must be specially equipped in order to
travel easily through their dark, constricting realm.

Earthworms and ants are the champion earth-movers, creating channels that allow air and water
to enter the soil. While
ants travel relatively far from their nests, earthworms work small areas, reprocessing vast amount
of soil into fertile “waste”. In a single year, as much as 36 tons of soil may pass through the
alimentary tracts of all the earthworms living in an acre of soil.

A. life in the forest soil
B. the habitats of the forest animals
C. the life cycle of ants and worms
D. a description of a forest scene
Question 56: The word “ bustles” in the passage is closest in meaning to ________ .
A. is very active
B. threatens
C. continues.
D. waits
Question 57: It can be inferred from the passage that the forest soil is_____ .
A. sparsely inhabited
B. devoid of life
C. unknown to man
D. densely
inhabited
Question 58: According to the passage, what is the main function of bacteria and fungi?
A. to build walls in the soil
B. to help aerate the soil
C. to kill mature plants
D. to provide food for plant life
Question 59: The word “bulwark” in the passage is closest in meaning to_______ .
A. tomb
B. radar
C. barrier

D. gateway
Question 60: According to the passage, the soil offers creatures who live underground protection
from all of the following EXCEPT__________.
A. bacteria and fungi
B. bad weather

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 number.
Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the
crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare.
And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he
can scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single
drop.
Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to
withstand its desiccating effects. No moist-skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large
animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the
bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than
the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by
stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as
healthy as animals anywhere else in the word.
The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could
survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a
matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows
underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert
averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

One of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramid of Giza was a monument of
wisdom and prophecy built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 B.C . Despite its antiquity,
certain aspects of its construction makes it one of the truly wonders of the world. The thirteen- acre
structure near the Nile river is a solid mass of stone blocks covered with limestone. Inside are the
number of hidden passageways and the burial chamber of the Pharaoh. It is the largest single
structure in the world. The four sides of the pyramid are aligned almost exactly on true north,
south, east and west-an incredible engineering feat. The ancient Egyptians were sun worshippers
and great astronomers, so computations for the Great Pyramid were based on astronomical
observations.

In recent years, there has been a remarkable increase into happiness. The researchers have come up
a number of factors which contribute to a definition of happiness.
First of all, there is, in some people, a moderate genetic predisposition to be happy, in other
words, happiness (40)_______ in families. And happiness seems to correlate quite strongly with the
main dimensions of personalities: extroverts are generally happier, neurotics are less so.
Second, people often report good social relations as a reason for their happiness. In
particular, friends are a great (41) ______ of joy, partly because of the agreeable things they do
together, partly because of the way friends use positive non-verbal (42) ______ such as caressing
and touching, to affirm their friendship. Marriage and similar (43) ______ relationships can also
form the basis of lasting happiness.
Third, job satisfaction undoubtedly (44) ______ overall satisfaction, and vice versa - perhaps
this is why some people are happy in boring jobs: it (45) ______ both ways. Job satisfaction is
caused not only by the essential nature of the work, but (46)_____ by social interactions with coworkers. Unemployment, on the contrary, can be a serious cause of unhappiness.
Fourth, leisure is important because it is more under individual (47) ______ than most other
causes of happiness. Activities (48) _____ sport and music, and participation in voluntary work and
social clubs of various kinds, can give great joy. This is partly because of the (49) ______themselves,

Read the following passage and circle the letter (A, B, C or D) to indicate the correct answer to
each of the following questions from 50 to 59.
American Online is one of the big names on the Internet, and unlike many other digital companies,
it actually makes a profit. But the company which its rivals call the “Cyber –cockroach” was
launched only in 1992. Before that, it was a small firm called control Video Corporation, and it
made video games. Then Steve Case, a former Pizza Hut marketing executive arrived and took the
company online, innovative, fast moving, and user-friendly, American online appeals to people
who want to search the Internet, but who do not have a lot of experience. For the same reason
“teachies”, people who think they are more expert with computers, look down on American
Online and its users. Recently, American Online (or AOL, as it calls itself) joined with Time Warn –
a multi-million dollar movie and magazine company-to create a multi media giant.

Kingdom, it is hard to buy a computer magazine that does not have a free AOL introductory offer.

introductory disks at places like train stations. As the Internet gets faster, AOL is changing. With

technology, the “Cyber-cockroach” will have to show that like real cockroaches, it can survive in
