The Earth's Energy Budget
The way the Earth interacts (28)
the sun's energy can be displayed in a diagram

called the Earth’s energy budget. It displays the sun's energy that reaches us and how much of that
energy absorbed and reflected is by the earth and its atmosphere. Solar energy reaches earth as
electromagnetic radiation. Once the energy reaches earth, some of it is absorbed by the
atmosphere, (29)
_ clouds.
Some of it makes it to the earth's surface, and is absorbed by land and oceans. The (30)
of energy absorbed affects temperature. The energy (31)
is not absorbed by
the earth or its atmosphere is reflected back out to space in the same wavelengths in which it came
to earth. On average, the amount of energy coming in is equal to the amount of energy going out.
Therefore, we say the earth's energy budget is balanced. (32)
more energy was coming in
than was going out, the earth's temperature would increase. On the other hand, if too much energy is
reflected, and not absorbed, we'll see a decrease in the earth's temperatures. Of all of the sun's
energy that hits the Earth, about 70% is absorbed by the land, ocean, atmosphere and clouds and
about 30% is reflected back into space.

C. about
D. for
Question 29: A. include

Read the following passages and then choose the best answer A, B, C or D.
TEXT 1:
Before the 1500’s, the western plains of North America were dominated by farmers. One
group, the Mandans, lived in the upper Missouri River country, primarily in present – day North
Dakota. They had large villages of houses built close together. The tight arrangement enabled the
Mandans to protect themselves more easily from the attacks of others who might seek to obtain
some of the food these highly capable farmers stored from one year to the next.
The women had primary responsibility for the fields. They had to exercise considerable
skill to produce the desired results, for their northern location meant fleeting growing seasons.

Winter often lingered; autumn could be ushered in by severe frost. For good measure, during the
spring and summer, drought, heat, hail, grasshoppers, and other frustrations might await the wary
grower.
Under such conditions, Mandan women had to grow maize capable of weathering adversity.
They began as early as it appeared feasible to do so in the spring, clearing the land, using fire
to clear stubble from the fields and then planting. From this point until the first green corn could be
harvested, the crop required labor and vigilance.
Harvesting proceeded in two stages. In August the Mandans picked a smaller amount of the
crop before it had matured fully. This green corn was boiled, dried and shelled, with some of the
maize slated for immediate consumption and the rest stored in animal – skin bags. Later in the
fall, the people picked the rest of the corn. They saved the best of the harvest for seeds or for trade,
with the remainder eaten right away or stored for alter use in underground reserves. With
appropriate banking of the extra food, the Mandans protected themselves against the disaster of
crop failure and accompany hunger.
The woman planted another staple, squash, about the first of June, and harvested it near the time of
the green corn harvest. After they picked it, they sliced it, dried it, and strung the slices before they stored
them. Once again, they saved the seeds from the best of the year’s crop. The Mandans also grew sunflowers
and tobacco; the latter was the particular task of the older men.

TEXT 2:

Telecommuting is some form of computer communication between employees’ homes and
offices. For employees whose job involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data or
typing reports, the location of the computer is of no consequence. If the machine can communicate
over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office computer and
transmit the material to their employers. A recent survey in USA Today estimates that there are
approximately 8,7 million telecommuters. But although the numbers are rising annually, the trend
does not appear to be as significant as predicted when Business Week published “The
Portable Executive” as its cover story a few years ago. Why hasn’t telecommuting become more
popular?
Clearly, change simply takes time. But in addition, there has been active resistance on the
part of many managers. These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a large work
force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managing them
are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager’s responsibilities.
It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are reluctant to
accept the opportunity. Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and many
are concerned that they will not have the same consideration for advancement if they are not more
visible in the office setting. Some people feel that even when a space in their homes is set aside as
a work area, they never really get away from the office.

A. The advantages of telecommuting.
B. A definition of telecommuting.
C. An overview of telecommuting.
D. The failure of telecommuting.
Question 42: How many Americans are involved in telecommuting?
A. More than predicted in Business Week.

B. More than 8 million.
C. Fewer than estimated in USA Today.
D. Fewer than last year.
Question 43: The reason why telecommuting has not become popular is that the employees
.
A. need regular interaction with their families.
B. are worried about the promotion if they are not seen at the office.
C. feel that a work area in their home is away from the office.
D. are ignorant of telecommuting.
Question 44: The word “them” in the second paragraph refers to
_.
A. executives
B. telecommuters
C. systems
D. responsibilities
Question 45: The word “reluctant” in the third paragraph can best be replaced by
