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
Visitors to Prince Edward Island, Canada, delight in the ‘unspoiled’ scenery - the well-kept farms and peaceful hamlets
of the island’s central core and the rougher terrain of the east and west. In reality, the island ecosystems are almost

entirely artificial.
Islanders have been tampering with the natural environment since the eighteenth century and long ago broke down
the Island’s natural forest cover to exploit its timber and much clear land for agriculture. By 1900, 80 percent of the
forest had been cut down and much of what remained had been destroyed by disease. Since then, however, some
farmland has been abandoned and has returned to forest through the invasion of opportunist species, notably spruce.
Few examples of the original climax forest, which consisted mostly of broadleaved trees such as maple, birch, and oak,
survive today.
Apart from a few stands of native forest, the only authentic habitats on Prince Edward Island are its sand dunes and
salt marshes. The dunes are formed from sand washed ashore by waves and then dried and blown by the wind to the
land beyond the beach. The sand is prevented from spreading farther by marram grass, a tall long-rooted species that
grows with the dunes and keeps them remarkably stable. Marram grass acts as a windbreak and allows other plants
such as beach pea and bayberry to take hold. On dunes where marram grass is broken down, for instance, where it is
trampled -the dunes may spread inland and inundate agricultural lands or silt up fishing harbors. The white dunes of
the north coast are the most impressive. There are also white dunes on the east and west coasts. Only in the south are
there red dunes, created when the soft sandstone cliffs crumble into the sea and subsequently wash ashore as red
sand. The dunes were once used as cattle pasture but were abandoned as the early settlers moved inland.

Salt marshes are the second remaining authentic habitat. These bogs are the result of the flooding of low coastal areas
during unusually high tides. In the interval between tides, a marsh area remains and plants take root, notably cord
grass, the ‘marsh hay’ used by the early settlers as winter forage for their livestock. Like the dunes, though, the
marshes were soon dismissed as wasteland and escaped development.

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
To date, Canada has produced only one classic children’s tale to rank with Alice’s Adventures in wonderland and the
works of Mark Twain; this was Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables. Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in
Clinton, Prince Edward Island. Her mother died soon after her birth, and when her father went to Saskatchewan to
assume a business position, she moved in with her grandparents in Cavendish, Prince Edward Island. There she went
to school and later qualified to be a teacher.
Montgomery wrote the Anne books while living in Cavendish and helping her grandmother at the post office. The first
of the books, Anne of Green Gabbles, was published in 1908, and in the next three years she wrote two sequels. Like
Montgomery, the heroine of the book is taken in by an elderly couple who lives in the fictional town of Avonlea, and
Montgomery incorporated many events from her life in Cavendish into the Anne books.
In 1911, Montgomery married Evan Macdonald and the couple soon moved to Ontario, where she wrote many other
books. However, it was her first efforts that secured her prominence, and the Anne books are still read all around the
