Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the 
questions.

It used to be that people would drink coffee or tea in the morning to pick them up and get them going for the
day. Then cola drinks hit the market. With lots of caffeine and sugar, these beverages soon became the
pick-me-up of choice for many adults and teenagers. Now drink companies are putting out so-called "energy drinks."
These beverages have the specific aim of giving tired consumers more energy.

One example of a popular energy drink is Red Bull. The company that puts out this beverage has stated in
interviews that Red Bull is not a thirst quencher. Nor is it meant to be a fluid replacement drink for athletes. 
Instead, the beverage is meant to revitalize a tired consumer's body and mind. In order to do this, the makers of
Red Bull, and other energy drinks, typically add vitamins and certain chemicals to their beverages. The added
chemicals are like chemicals that the body naturally produces for energy. The vitamins, chemicals, caffeine, and
sugar found in these beverages all seem like a sure bet to give a person energy.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the

HYDROGEN

Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe and was perhaps the first to form. It is among the ten
most common elements on Earth as well and one of the most useful for industrial purposes. Under normal

conditions of temperature, hydrogen is a gas. Designated as H, hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table
because it contains only one proton. Hydrogen can combine with a large number of other elements, forming
more compounds than any of the others. Pure hydrogen seldom occurs naturally, but it exists in most organic
compounds, that is, compounds that contain carbon, which account for a very large number of compounds.
Moreover, hydrogen is found in inorganic compounds. For example, when hydrogen burns in the presence
ofoxygen, it forms water.

The lightest and simplest of the elements, hydrogen has several properties that make it valuable for many
industries. It releases more heat per unit of weight than any other fuel. In rocket engines, tons of hydrogen and
oxygen are burned, and hydrogen is used with oxygen for welding torches that produce temperatures as high
as 4,000 degrees F and can be used in cutting steel. Fuel cells to generate electricity operate on hydrogen and
oxygen.

Hydrogen also serves to prevent metals from tarnishing during beat treatments by removing the oxygen from
them. Although it would be difficult to remove the oxygen by itself, hydrogen readily combines with oxygen to 
form water, which can be heated to steam and easily removed. Furthermore, hydrogen is one of the coolest
refrigerants. It does not become a liquid until it reaches temperatures of-425 degrees F. Pure hydrogen gas is
used in large electric generators to cool the coils.

Future uses of hydrogen include fuel for cars, boats, planes, and other forms of transportation that currently
require petroleum products. These fuels would be lighter, a distinct advantage in the aerospace industry, and
they would also be cleaner, thereby reducing pollution in the atmosphere.

Hydrogen is also useful in the food industry for a process known as hydrogenation. Products such as
margarine and cooking oils are changed from liquids to semisolids by combining hydrogen with their molecules. 
Soap manufacturers also use hydrogen for this purpose. In addition, in the chemical industry, hydrogen is used
to produce ammonia, gasoline, methyl alcohol, and many other important products.

Question 38: What is the author's main purpose in the passage?

A. To describe the origin of hydrogen in the universe
