READING COMPREHENSION (20) C1.c Researchers from the University of
Arizona studied colonies of rock ants across the western US, both by following
them in the wild and by taking whole colonies back to the lab.They found that
certain risky behaviours, like foraging widely for food and responding aggressively
to a threat, went together, and colonies further north tended to take more of these
risks The

C2.Scotland has voted to stay in the United Kingdom Around 85% of voters turned
out to vote in the referendum A total of 2,001,926 people voted 'No' to
independence, whilst 1,617,989 voted 'Yes' It's been history in the making The
people of Scotland have decided to continue their 300-year union with England So
the UK survives Pro-independence campaigners say they're disappointed, but insist
the high turnout shows there's an appetite for change Few would disagree, and
accept the result doesn't mean Britain goes back to business as usual In the hours
and days ahead, the Prime Minister David Cameron and the other party leaders will
now have to deliver on their promise in the last days of the campaign to give
Scotland more powers And no-one believes that can be done without a wider

C3 Walking or cycling to work instead of driving a car can improve people's
feelings of health and happiness That's what a study at the University of East
Anglia in the UK suggests For many people commuting is a necessary evil Most
see going by car or van as the 'least worst' option This study by the researchers at
the University of East Anglia challenges that assumption It suggests walking,
cycling or travelling by public transport can lift the mood Crucially, it suggests
those who switch from the car to an active commute feel better across a range of
psychological measures, including concentration, decision making and the ability
to face up to problems The researchers say policies encouraging people to leave
their cars at home could have a dramatic impact on public wellbeing The benefits
of walking or cycling?
A Improve people's feelings of health
B Improve people's feelings happiness

C4 The Earth's protective ozone layer is starting to repair itself, according to a
panel of United Nations scientists The main reason behind its recovery, they say, is
the fact that certain chemicals, such as those used in aerosol cans, were gradually
banned in the 1980s It was in the 1980s that many of us became aware that small
individual actions could harm the planet itself.Hairsprays were cited as one of the
causes of the hole in the Antarctic ozone layer People were told to wear sunscreen
to avoid skin cancer as the layer thinned and more UV light got through.By 1987
world governments had agreed to ban most of the ozone-eating chemicals.The
World Meteorological Organisation say at last the ozone layer is showing signs of
thickening, although it will be a while before they know if the hole is actually

healing.The same organisation warned earlier this week that climate change was
heading in the opposite direction with greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at a
record level What's going on with ozone?
A finishing to repair itself
B starting to repair itself
C starting to repair atmosphere
D Being contaminated
The main reason behind its recovery?
A It’s certain chemicals
B It’s used in aerosol cans
C A&B are correct
D A&B are wrong
What were cited as one of the causes of the hole in the Antarctic ozone layer?
A Trash
B Hairsprays
C Vehicle
D Factory
How the government protects the ozone layer in 1987?
A They ban most of the ozone-eating chemicals
B They put forth the policy of environmental protection
C Ban on chemical production

C5 You can live without air conditioning and indoor plumbing, but there are some
true necessities of life You can't survive for long without food, water, sleep, or air
Survival experts apply the ‘rule of threes’ to lasting without essentials You can go
about three weeks without food, three days without water, three hours without
shelter, and three minutes without air However, the ‘rules’ are more like general
guidelines Obviously, you can last a lot longer outside when it's warm than when
it's freezing Similarly, you can last longer without water when it's humid and cool
than when it's hot and dry.The technical name for starvation is inanition It is
extreme malnutrition and calorie deficiency A starving person is less sensitive to
thirst, so sometimes death is from the effects of dehydration Vitamin deficiency
may also lead to death If a person lasts long enough, the body starts using protein
from muscles, including the heart, as an energy source Usually, the cause of death
is cardiac arrest from tissue damage and electrolyte imbalance What is the
necessities of life?
A Air conditioning and indoor plumbing
B Food, water, sleep, or air
C Family and community
D All are correct
The rule that survival experts apply?
A Nutritious food
B Fresh air
C Rule of threes for food, water, shelter and air
D Environmental
What is the technical name for starvation?
A Inanition


B Catastrophe
C Eradication
D Casualties

Which factor is more important to life?
A Sleep
B Food
C Enviroment
D Water
What is the cause of death?
A Cardiac arrest
B Tissue damage
C Electrolyte imbalance
D All are correct #####
C6 Water is an essential molecule for life Depending on your age, gender, and
weight, you consist of around 50-65% water, which is used to digest food, carry
oxygen and nutrients through the bloodstream, remove wastes, and cushion organs
Since water is so critical, it should come as no surprise that dying from dehydration
is an unpleasant way to go Oh, in the end, a victim is unconscious, so the actual
dying part isn't so bad, but that only occurs after days of pain and misery.Lack of
water causes cracked skin and a dry, raspy cough Coughing won't be the worst,
though While you might be out of fluids, that won't prevent vomiting The
increased acidity of the stomach can produce dry heaves Blood thickens,
increasing heart rate Another unpleasant result of dehydration is a swollen tongue
While your tongue swells, your eyes and brain shrink As the brain shrinks, the
membrane or meninges pulls away from the bones of the skull, potentially tearing
Death can result from liver failure, kidney failure, or cardiac arrest What
is an essential molecule for life?

C7.Any new parent can verify it's possible to go days without sleeping Yet,
it's an essential process While scientists are still unraveling the mysteries of sleep,
it's known to play roles in memory formation, tissue repair, and hormone synthesis


Lack of sleep (called agrypnia) leads to decreased concentration and reaction time,
diminished mental processes, reduced motivation, and altered perception.How long
can you go without sleep? Anecdotal reports indicate soldiers in battle have been
known to stay awake for four days and that manic patients have lasted three to four
days Experiments have documented normal people staying awake for eight to ten
days, without any apparent permanent damage after a night or two of normal sleep

to recover.The world record holder was Randy Gardner, a 17-year-old high school
student, who stayed awake for 264 hours, around 11 days, for a science fair project
in 1965 While he was technically awake at the conclusion of the project, he was
completely dysfunctional by the end.However, there are rare disorders, such as
Morvan's syndrome, which can cause a person to go without sleep for several
months! The question of how long people can stay awake ultimately remains
unanswered What is the role of sleep? A Memory formation, tissue repair, and
hormone synthesis B Memory formation, tissue repair, and metabolically C
Memory formation, improve immune system, and hormone synthesis D Increased
longevity, tissue repair, and hormone synthesis The impact of lack of sleep? A
Decreased concentration and reaction time B Diminished mental processes C
Reduced motivation, and altered perception D All are correct How many days
ordinary people may not sleep? A – days B 6- days C – 10 days D 10 – 12 days
What syndrome that person not sleep for months? A Morvan's syndrome B Lack of
sleep syndrome C Insomnia syndrome D Incubus syndrome According to research,
how long can a person sleep? A 10 – 12 days B – 10 days C 6- days D There is no
answer ##### C8.How long a person can go without air is really a question of how
long he can go without oxygen It's further complicated if other gases are present
For example, breathing the same air over and over is more likely to be lethal
because of the excess carbon dioxide rather than the depleted oxygen Death from
removing all oxygen,like a vacuum, may occur from the results of the pressure
change or possibly temperature change.When the brain is deprived of oxygen,
death occurs because there is insufficient chemical energy to feed brain cells How
long this takes depends on temperature, metabolic rate, slower is better, and other


factors.If oxygen deprivation occurs some other way, perhaps from drowning, for
example, a person loses consciousness between 30 and 180 seconds At the 60
second mark brain cells start to die After three minutes, lasting damage is likely
Brain death typically occurs between five and ten minutes, possibly fifteen

minutes.However, people can train themselves to make more efficient use of
oxygen The world record holder for free diving held his breath for 22 minutes and
22 seconds without suffering brain damage! What is the content of the article? A
Breath B Food C Enviroment D Air Why breathing the same air over and over is
more likely to be lethal? A Because of the excess carbon dioxide rather than the
depleted oxygen B Because it lacks some important air C Because there’s not
enough chemical energy D Because it slows down metabolism What happens when
the brain has not oxygen? A Death occurs because of swelling of the brain B Death
occurs because there is insufficient chemical energy to feed brain cells C Death
occurs because the brain cells die D Death occurs because the brain is not
metabolized When the brain starts dying when drowning? A At the 60 second mark
brain cells start to die B After three minutes, lasting damage is likely C A & B are
correct D A & B are wrong How long the man who holds the world record for free
diving? A 20 minutes and 22 seconds B 21 minutes and 22 seconds C 22 minutes
and 22 seconds D 21 minutes and 21 seconds #####
C9 Studies suggest that teenagers often sacrifice their sleep time when it comes to
making choices about time management The problem is, studies also show that
they need a lot more sleep than they probably get More and more studies are
showing that there is a direct link between sleep and academic success.According
to a study by sleep expert Mary Carskadon, PhD, teens should receive more than
nine hours of sleep every night.Dr Carskadon's study suggests biology might be the
cause for sleep deprivation among teens Their internal time clocks are just a little
different during teenage years and late nights and sleep-ins are a natural part of
growing into adulthood.Lack of sleep makes it more difficult for students to
concentrate in school, especially during those early-morning classes.A more recent


study shows that sacrificing sleep to study actually does more harm than good The
sleep that you miss when you stay up late to study will cause ‘academic problems’
the following day It's just not worth sacrificing sleep to study!

C10 What can you if you know you aren't getting enough sleep?Turn off the TV at
night The TV noises and flashing lights will only keep you from getting a sound
sleep If you can remember anything you hear during your sleep, it's a sure sign
you're not sleeping well.Reduce caffeine by switching to something healthier, like
bottled water.Limit after-school activities It's hard to do, but try to limit your

extracurricular activity Sometimes you just have to make a hard choice and stick to
it.Don't think too hard right before bed time Turn off the cell phone Keep track of
time Often, students have great intentions, but other tasks seem to keep them up
late, time after time Play music if you want, but not too loud Many people play
music at night If it doesn't bother you, go ahead Do you really need that afterschool job? This might be a really tough decision, too Some students need to work
so they can pay for car insurance or save up for college You'll just have to decide
on your own, what's necessary and what's not

C11 Sleeping in the ocean is definitely different than sleeping on land As we learn
more about sleep in marine life, we're learning that marine animals don't have the
same requirements for long periods of undisturbed sleep that we Here you can
learn more about how different types of marine animals sleep.Cetaceans,i.e whales,
dolphins and porpoises are voluntary breathers, meaning they think about every
breath they take A whale breathes through the blowholes on top of its head, so it
needs to come up to the water surface to breathe But that means the whale needs to
be awake to breathe How's a whale going to get any rest? The answer may surprise
you Research on captive animals shows that cetaceans rest one half of their brain at
a time, while the other half stays awake and makes sure the animal breathes.Sharks
need to keep water moving over their gills so that they receive oxygen So that
means they need to keep moving all the time or they? Some sharks need to move
all the time, and these sharks seem to be ‘sleep swimming,’ with some parts of
their brain more active than others Other sharks can rest, using spiracles to draw in
oxygenated water
What is the content of the article?


A Sleeping in the ocean
B Life in the ocean C Sea animals

D Whales need more air than sharks #####


C12 Money doesn't have any inherent value Unless you enjoy looking at pictures
of deceased national heroes, money has no more use than any other piece of paper
until, as a country and an economy, we assign value to it At that point, it does have
value, but the value isn't inherent; it's assigned and generally agreed upon by users
worldwide It didn't always work this way In the past, money generally took the
form of coins composed of precious metals such as gold and silver.The value of the
coins was roughly based on the value of the metals they contained, because you
could always melt the coins down and use the metal for other purposes Until a few
decades ago paper money in different countries was based on the gold standard or
silver standard or some combination of the two This meant that you could take
some paper money to the government, who would exchange it for some gold or

some silver based on an exchange rate set by the government The gold standard
lasted until 1971 when President Nixon announced that the United States would no
longer exchange dollars for gold This ended the Bretton Woods system, which will
be the focus of a future article Now the United States is on a system of fiat money,
which is not tied to any other commodity So these pieces of paper in your pocket
are just that: pieces of paper
By the text, what is the author talking about?
A Money
B Value of money C Denomination of money 12

C13.If we print more money, prices will rise such that we’re no better off than we
were before Why will prices go up after a money supply increase?In short, prices
will go up after a drastic increase in the money supply because:If people have more
money, they’ll divert some of that money to spending Retailers will be forced to
raise prices, or run out of the product.Retailers who run out of product will try to
replenish it Producers face the same dilemma of retailers that they will either have
to raise prices, or face shortages because they not have the capacity to
create an extra product and they cannot find labor at rates which are low enough to
justify the extra production.Inflation is caused by a combination of four factors:
The supply of money goes up.The supply of goods goes down.Demand for money
goes down.Demand for goods goes up.This gets us to why drastically increasing


the money supply on the surface seems like a good idea When we say we’d like
more money, what we’re really saying is we’d like more wealth The problem is if
we all have more money, collectively we’re not going to be any more wealthy
Increasing the amount of money does nothing to increasing the amount of wealth
or more plainly the amount of stuff in the world Since the 13 same number of
people are chasing the same amount of stuff, we cannot on average be wealthier
than we were before
What happens when printing more money?
A Prices will rise
B Inflation fell C
Wealthy people
D The government is out of control
Why will prices go up after a money supply increase? A If people have more

money, they’ll divert some of that money to spending
B Retailers will be forced to raise prices
C Retailers who run out of product will try to replenish it
D All are correct
If people have a lot of money, what happen?
A They’ll divert some of that money to spending
B They will save money
C They will deposit into the bank
D They will buy gold to hoard
What factors cause inflation?
A The supply of money goes down.The supply of goods goes up Demand for
money goes down Demand for goods goes up
B The supply of money goes up.The supply of goods goes down Demand for
money goes down Demand for goods goes up


C The supply of money goes up.The supply of goods goes down Demand for
money goes up Demand for goods goes down
D The supply of money goes down.
The supply of goods goes up Demand for money goes up Demand for goods goes
down How does the amount of money affect wealth?
A Increasing the amount of money will increase the amount of wealth
B Increasing the amount of money will decrease the amount of wealth
C Increasing the amount of money does nothing to increasing the amount of wealth
D Increasing the amount of money will affect to increasing the amount of wealth

C14.Between 2000 and 2012, deforestation occurred on 888,000 square miles
globally This was partially offset by 309,000 square miles where forests grew back
The net result is an average forest loss of 31 million acres per year during that
period – that’s about the size of the state of Mississippi, each year.This forest loss

trend is not distributed evenly over the planet Several areas are experiencing
important reforestation, the regrowth of recently cut forest, and afforestation, the
planting of new forests were none were in recent history, i.e., 14 less than 50
years.Intensive forestry in subtropical areas and in boreal forests is a major agent
of forest loss The vast majority of forest loss in tropical areas occurs when forests
are converted to agriculture production and pastures for cattle Forests are not
logged for the commercial value of the wood itself, but instead they are burned as
the fastest way to clear land Cattle are then brought in to graze on grasses that now
replace the trees In some areas plantations are put in, notably large palm oil
operations In other places, like Argentina, forests are cut to grow soybeans, a major
ingredient in pig and poultry feed

A Tourist resorts & industrial zones
B Residential area C Agriculture production and pastures for cattle
D Cut to grow soybeans #####

C15.The loss of forests means disappearing habitats for wildlife and degraded
watersheds, but it also impacts our climate in a multitude of ways Trees absorb
atmospheric carbon dioxide, the number one greenhouse gas and contributor to
climate change By cutting down forests we reduce the planet’s capacity to pull
carbon out of the atmosphere and achieve a balanced carbon dioxide budget Slash


from forestry operations is often burned, releasing in the air the carbon stored in
the wood In addition, the soil left exposed after the machinery is gone 15 continues
to release stored carbon into the atmosphere.Forest loss affects the water cycle, too
The dense tropical forests found along the equator release phenomenal amounts of
water in the air through a process called transpiration This water condenses into
clouds, which then release the water further away in the form of torrential tropical
rains It is too soon to really understand how deforestation’s interference with this
process affects climate change, but we can be assured that it has consequences
within and outside tropical regions
What does forest loss mean?
A Disappearing habitats for wildlife and degraded watersheds
B Disappearing food for wildlife and degraded watersheds
C Disappearing habitats for wildlife and reduce water in the rivers

C16.Behavior is what we humans Behavior is observable and measurable Whether
it is walk from one place to another or to crack our knuckles, behavior serves some
‘function’ or the other.Applied Behavior Analysis, the research based approach to
modifying behavior, seeks to find the ‘function’ of an inappropriate behavior in
order to find a replacement behavior to replace it 16 Every behavior serves some
function, and provides a consequence, reinforcement, for the behavior.When we

successfully identify the ‘function’ of the behavior we can reinforce an alternate,
acceptable behavior that will replace it When the student has that particular ‘need’
or function fulfilled by an alternate means, the mal-adaptive or unacceptable
behavior is less likely to reappear If a child needs attention, and we give them
attention in an appropriate way because of appropriate behavior, we cement the
appropriate behavior and make the inappropriate or unwanted behavior less likely
to appear What is behavior?
A Behavior is what we humans
B Behavior is observable
C Behavior is measurable


D All correct

behavior less likely to appear
C We cement the appropriate behavior and make the inappropriate or wanted
behavior less likely to appear 17


D We cement the appropriate behavior and make the inappropriate or unwanted
behavior isn’t likely to appear #####
C17 The clearest evidence of how a behavior functions for a child is seen in the
Antecedent and the Consequence The Antecedent is everything that happens
immediately before the behavior occurs It is sometimes also referred to as ‘the
Setting Event’ but a setting event may be part of the antecedent, but not the whole
The teacher/ABA practitioner needs to ask ‘Is there something in the environment
that may lead to the behavior i.e., escaping loud noises, a person who always
presents demand, a change in routine that might seem frightening to a child?’ Is
there something that happens in that environment that seems to have a causal
relationship, like the entrance of a pretty girl, attention, or a loud noise? The
Consequence In ABA, the term consequence has a very specific meaning, which at
the same time is broader than the use of ‘consequence’, as it usually is, to mean
‘punishment’ The consequence is what happens as the result of the behavior That
consequence is usually the ‘reward’ or ‘reinforcement’ for the behavior
The best evidence of how a child's behavior is seen?
A In the Antecedent and the Consequence
B In the Antecedent and the Reason
C In the Reason and the Consequence
D In the Antecedent and the Result What is the The Antecedent?
A The Antecedent is nothing that happens immediately before the behavior occurs

B The Antecedent is everything that happens immediately after the behavior occurs
C The Antecedent is everything that happens immediately before the behavior
occurs
D The Antecedent is everything that happens immediately before the behavior
