<i><b>Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.</b></i>


We live on a wet planet. In fact, most of the surface of Earth is covered with water.
Oceans are the largest bodies of water on Earth. A body of water is a part of Earth’s surface
covered with water. You probably know that ocean water is salty. Do you know why? It is
mainly because rain brings salt from the land and into the ocean! Here is how that happens:
Rain falls onto rocks. The rainwater breaks down salt and minerals from the rocks. The
<b>water mixes with the salt and minerals. Then it flows into the oceans.</b>



Scientists have discovered two other sources of salty ocean water. Some salt comes
from underwater volcanoes. Other salt spurts from heated vents on the ocean floor. Most
ocean salt, however, starts on land. Lakes are large bodies of water. They are surrounded by
land. Lakes usually have fresh water, but some lakes have salt water. The Great Salt Lake in
Utah is a saltwater lake. Lake water does not move from place to place.


Rivers are filled with fresh water that moves from one place to another. The water in
rivers comes mostly from rain. Rivers usually flow into oceans. Streams and creeks are also
bodies of moving fresh water. They are smaller than rivers. Streams and creeks can come
together and form larger streams or rivers.

<i><b>Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.</b></i>


Most people know that a balanced diet and regular exercise are very important.
However, most people do not know how to exercise properly. Instead of concentrating on
how to get the best results efficiently and effectively, people usually rush through their
workouts, or they make the same common workout mistakes.


Exercising the right way is important for people who are worried about their health and
their appearance. However, if someone is not working out properly, it is rare that he or she
