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
Three mile island nuclear power plant
America‟s worst accident at a civilian nuclear power plant occurred on March 28, 1979, at Three Mile
Island. Operators were trying to repair a problem with piping in the water circulation system, and they
accidentally blocked the flow of water. This stopped the removal of heat from the reactor, and began a series
of events that would change the way America thought about nuclear power.
Within ten seconds after the flow of water was blocked, the reactor vessel became hotter and the pressure
rose. Safety control rods were automatically thrust down into the reactor, causing the chain reaction to stop
completely. Pressure, however, continued to build. A relief valve opened but failed to close. As a result, too
much water escaped, and the reactor began to melt down.


[1] Large quantities of radioactivity began to leak from the reactor. [2] Most of the radioactivity was
contained, and it is likely that no one received a harmful amount of radiation. [3] “Three Mile Island”

became the reason that many Americans are afraid of nuclear power to this day. [4]
Question 45: What is the main topic of this passage?
A. A near-disaster at a nuclear power plant
B. American attitudes toward nuclear power
C. The release of radioactive steam
D. The fact that no one was harmed by radiation
Question 46: Where did the first problem occur at Three Mile Island?
A. In the control rods
B. In the reactor vessel
C. In the water circulation system
D. In the reactor‟s core
Question 47: The word „this” in the passage refers to _____
A. Water
B. The circulation system
C. Repairing the piping
D. Blocking the flow of water
Question 48: It can be inferred that removing heat from a reactor is important because
A. It keeps pressure low enough to avoid accidents
B. It keeps the reactor producing energy
C. It stops a chain reaction
D. It stops radioactivity from leaking out of the reactor
Question 49: The word “thrust” in the passage is closest in meaning to
A. Carried
B. Repaired
C. Pushed
D. Removed
Question 50: which word refers to the part of a nuclear reactor in which the nuclear reaction takes place?
A. Vessel
B. Core
C. Circulation system

D. Control rods
Question 51: According to the passage, how was the chain reaction stopped at Three Mile Island?
A. By a built-in safety device
B. By the plant operators
C. By the loss of fuel
D. By water flooding the plant
Question 52: What is the most likely reason why many Americans are still afraid of nuclear island?
A. They have heard about many accidents like the one at Three Mile Island.
B. They were at Three Mile Island
C. They believe that a situation like Three Mile Island could happen again
D. Nuclear power plants are always dangerous.
Question 53: The word “contained” in the text is closest in meaning to
A. Kept inside
B. Cleaned up
C. Escaped from
D. Kept out

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
Stellar Astronomy
Many parameters are used to describe a star. One of them is its temperature, which can be determined by
simple observation; the color of a star and its temperature are related. Once the color of a star is identified,
its temperature can be calculated through the use of scientific principles such as Wien‟s Law.
There are different types of stars in the universe. For our purposes, we can classify them into two categories:
variable and binary. Variable stars are those which show some degree of variability in their luminosity and

magnitude. Luminosity refers to the amount of energy radiated by a star, while magnitude refers to its
brightness. At time the degree of variability may be high, requiring a telescope with an equally high lightgathering power. This can be achieved by using a lens of large diameter, such as that of a reflecting
telescope.
Binary stars are those found in pairs that revolve around a common center. The closest star to the sun,
Proxima Centauri, is a binary star. To observe a binary star, the resolving power of a telescope – its ability to
distinguish between two close objects having a small angular separation – must be very high.
Stellar astronomy is possible for a everyone, well beyond mere looking at the sky with the naked eye in
order to identify constellations. With two basic of telescopes and rudimentary knowledge, much exploration
can be achieved.
Question 55: What is the topic of the passage?
A. Types of stars and how to observe them.
B. The differences between binary and variable stars
C. Types of telescopes
D. The color and temperature of stars
Question 56: The temperature of a star can be determined by its
A. Size
B. Color
C. Movement
D. Luminosity
Question 57: Which of the following is true of variable stars?
A. They vary in brightness
B. They rotate around each other.
C. They vary in color.
D. The size of the telescope must vary in order to observe them.
Question 58: Why does the author write that “stellar astronomy is possible for everyone”?
A. To emphasize that it is easy to become an astronomer
B. To encourage people to try observing stars
C. To show that most people know a lot about stars

D. To explain why astronomy is popular
Question 59: Why does a telescope need to have a high-gathering ability?
A. To view stars which do not give off very much light
B. To view stars with a high variability
C. To support a lens of large diameter
D. All of the above
Question 60: The word “parameters” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
A. Measurements
B. Laws
C. Categories
D. Numbers
Question 61: The word “ rudimentary” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to
A. Advanced
B. Formal
C. Basic
D. Important
Question 62: The word “radiated” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to
A. Received
B. Sent out
C. Burnt
D. Controlled
Question 63: Complete the summary by choosing one sentence (A, B, C or D) that is among the most
important information to fill in the blank.
A. Variable stars may differ in the amount of energy they radiate or in their luminosity.
B. Variable stars change in brightness and luminosity, and require a telescope with a large lens.
C. Proxima Centauri, the closest star to Earth, is a binary star and requires a large telescope for
observation.
D. Many different types of stars exist, but the most important categories are variable and binary stars.
SUMMARY: This passage discusses types of star. One way to categorize stars is by temperature, which can
be determined from the star‟s color and Wien‟s Law. _______________ . Binary stars revolve around a

common center and call for telescopes with high resolving power.
Question 64: Complete the table by choosing a phrase to match the heading.
A. Include the sun
B. Can be viewed without a telescope


C. Display the greatest luminosity
D. Include Proxima Centauri
BINARY STARS VARIABLE STARS
*Are pairs of stars with small angular separation

*______
*need a telescope with a large lens
