Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10, the Apollo 11 astronauts made their historic
landing on the surface of the Moon. This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with

</div>
<span class='text_page_counter'>(2)</span><div class='page_container' data-page=2>

an abudance of material for study; from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,
scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon (as well as to draw)
inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.

The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were
probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon. The bits of
glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil. Scientists found no
trace of animal or plant life in this soil.

In addition to the Moon soil, astronauts gather two basic types of rocks from the surface of
the Moon: Basalt and breccia . Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the Earth.
Since basalt is formed under extremely high temperatures, the presence of this type of rock is an
indication that the temperature of the Moon was once extremely hot. Breccia, the other kind of rock
brought back by the astronauts, was formed during the impact of falling objects on the surface of the
Moon. This second type of rock consists of small pieces of rock compressed together bythe force of
impact. Gases such as hydrogen and helium were found in some of the rocks, and scientists believe
that these gas were carried to the Moon by the solar wind, the streams of gases that are constantly
<b>emitted by the Sun.</b>

Câu 16:The paragraph preceding the passage most likely discusses:

A. astronaut training B. the inception of the Apollo space program.
C. a different space trip. D. previous Moon landings

A. Hydrogen and helium B. Large chunks of volcanic lava
C. Tiny pieces of stones and glass D. Streams of gases

Câu 19: Which of the following was NOT brought back to the Earth by the astronauts?

A. Basalt B. Soil C. Breccia D. Plant life

Câu 20: According to the passage, breccia was formed:

A. when objects struck the Moon B. from volcanic lava

hydrogen.

Câu 21:It is implied in the passage that scientists believe that the gases found in the Moon rocks:
A. caused the Moon’stemperature to rise. B. were created inside the rocks

Câu 24: It can be inferred from the passage that_______

A. scientists do not believe that it is necessary to return to the Moon.
B. scientists learned relatively little from the Moon rock and soil samples.

C. rock and soil samples were only some of a myriad of significant items from the Moon. D. the only
items of importance that astronauts brought back from the Moon were rock and soil samples.

Because writing has become so important in our culture, we sometimes think of it as more real
than speech. A little thought, however, will show why speech is primary and writing is secondary to
language. Human beings have been writing( as far as we can tell from surviving evidence) for at
least 5000 years; but they have been talking for much longer, doubtless ever since there have
been human beings.

</div>

To affirm the primacy of speech over writing is not, however, to <b>disparage the latter. One</b>
