When the first white men came to America, they found vast amounts of natural resources of tremendous value.
Forests covered a large part of the nation; later gas, oil and minerals were found in unbelievable amounts. There was a
great abundance of very fertile soil. Forests, prairies, streams and rivers abounded with wildlife. So vast were these
resources that it seemed that they could never be used up. So forests were destroyed to make way for farmland. Grass lands
and prairies were plowed and harrowed. Minerals and oil were used in great quantities to supply a young industrial nation.
Almost every river became the scene of factories, mills and power companies. Mammals and birds were slaughtered for
food and sports.
Within a short time, the results were obvious. Floods caused millions of dollars worth of damage yearly. The very
fertile soil was washed away or blown up in great clouds. The seemingly inexhaustible oil and minerals showed signs of

depletion. Rivers were filled with silt from eroding farms and wastes from factories. Many of the rivers were made unfit for
fish. Several species of birds disappeared, and some mammals seemed on the verge of going. Future timber shortages were
predicted. In short, Americans soon became to realize that some sort of conservation program must be set up, if future as
well as present Americans were to share in the resources that are the heritage of every American.

Question 40: The use of America's natural resources by the early settlers was ________.
A. scientific
B. predicted
C. unbelievable
D. careless
Question 41: Much of the fertile soil of America has ________.
A. been eroded by wind and water
B. been covered by lakes
C. become the scene of factories
D. sunk deep into the earth
Question 42:One reason why many of our rivers are no longer suitable living places for fish is that ________.

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 from 43 to 50
Lighthouses are towers with strong lights that help mariners plot their position, inform them that land is near, and
warn them of dangerous rocks and reefs. They are placed at prominent points on the coast and on islands, reefs, and
sandbars.
Every lighthouse has a distinctive pattern of light known as its characteristic. There are five basic characteristics:
fixed, flashing, occulting, group flashing, and group occulting. A fixed signal is a steady beam. A flashing signal has
periods of darkness longer than periods of light, while an occulting signal’s periods of light are longer. A group- flashing
light gives off two or more flashes at regular intervals, and a group – occulting signal consists of a fixed light with two or
more periods of darkness at regular intervals. Some lighthouses use lights of different colors as well, and today, most
lighthouses are also equipped with radio beacons. The three types of apparatus used to produce the signals are the catoptric,
in which metal is used to reflect the light; the dioptric, in which glass is used; and the catadioptric, in which both glass and
metal are used.
In the daytime, lighthouses can usually be identified by their structure alone. The most typical structure is a tower
tapering at the top, but some, such as the Bastion Lighthouse on the Saint Lawrence River, are shaped like pyramids, and
others, such as the Race Rock light, look like wooden houses sitting on high platforms. Still others, such as The American
Shoal lighthouse off the Florida Coast, are skeletal towers of steel. Where lighthouses might be confused in daylight, they
can be distinguished by day- marker patterns – designed of checks and stripes painted in vivid colors on lighthouse walls.
In the past, the job of lighthouse keeper was lonely and difficult if somewhat romantic. Lighthouse keepers put in
hours of tedious work maintaining the lights. Today, lighthouses are almost entirely automated with humans supplying
only occasional maintenance. Because of improvements in navigational technology, the importance of lighthouses has
diminished. There are only about 340 functioning lighthouses in existence in the United States today, compared to about
1,500 in 1900, and there are only about 1,400 functioning lighthouses outside the United States. Some decommissioned
lighthouses have been preserved as historical monument.
Question 43: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the functions of lighthouses?
A. To help sailors determine their location
B. To warn of danger from rocks and reefs
C. To notify sailors that bad weather is approaching
D. To indicate that land is near

Question 46: According to the passage, what kind of signal has long periods of light that are regularly broken by two or
more periods of darkness?
A. Flashing
B. Group occulting
C. Occulting
D. Group flashing

A. A lighthouse with day-marker patterns
