It is a characteristic of human nature that people like to get together and have fun, and people live
during America's frontier days were no exception. However, because life was hard and the necessities

of day-to-day living took up their time, it was common for recreation to be combined with activities
necessary for survival. One example of such a form of recreation was logrolling. Many frontier areas
were heavily wooded, and in order to settle an area it was necessary to remove the trees. A settler
could cut down the trees alone, but help was needed to move the cut trees. After a settler had cut a
bunch of trees, he would then invite his neighbors over for a logrolling.
A logrolling is a community event where families got together for a combination of work and
fun. The women would bring food and have a much needed and infrequent opportunity to relax and
chat with friends, the children would play together exuberantly, and the men would hold lively
competitions that involved rolling logs from place to place as quickly as possible. This was a day of
fun for everyone involved, but as its foundation was the need to clear the land.

A. people combined work with recreation
A. people cleared land by rolling logs

B. a logrolling involved the community

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.
About 200 million years ago, as the Triassic Period came to a close, many species of animals
disappeared from the face of the Earth. Scientists previously believed that the series of extinctions
happened over a period of 15 to 20 million years. Recent discoveries in Nova Scotia suggest,
however, that the extinctions may have happened over a much shorter period of time, perhaps less
than 850,000 years.
Evidence for a rapid extinction of species at the end of the Triassic Period is found in the McCoy Brook
Formation along the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia. Fossils found in this formation indicate a rapid
disappearance of species rather than a slow and gradual change over time. One explanation for a
relatively sudden extinction at the end of the Triassic may be that a large meteorite struck the
earth at the time and is responsible for a 70- kilometer hole nearby. If geologists and other
researchers can find evidence, such as shocked quartz in the rock formations, that a meteorite did
strike the earth, it would give more credence to the theory of rapid Triassic extinctions. It is possible,
however, that even if a rapid extinction happened in and around Nova Scotia, it did not necessarily
occur in the rest of the world.

the Triassic Period B) evidence of a relatively sudden extinction of species C) the possibility of an

Environment contains water, soil, air, which are necessary to all of the livings. Therefore, we are trying to find solutions to
environmental pollution. People should stop cutting trees for timber instead of planting trees and forests. Besides, people
should reduce using cars, motorbikes that cause noise and air pollution. The next measure is that we should prevent
farmers from using fertilizers and pesticides that damage soil. In addition, people should not leave litter on land and in
water and we should prohibit factories from dumping industrial waste into rivers and lakes. It is high time governments had
suitable measures that require companies, as well as individuals, to stop cutting down and polluting activities.
