V. READING COMPREHENSION (20 PTS)

Passage 1. Read the following passage and choose the best option to complete the blank or answer
the question.

May 7, 1840, was the birthday of one of the most famous Russian composers of the nineteenth
century Peter Illich Tchaikovsky. The son of a mining inspector, Tchaikovsky studied music as a child and
later studied composition at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. His greatest period of productivity occurred
between 1876 and 1890, during which time he enjoyed the patronage of Madame von Meck, a woman he
never met, who gave him a living stipend of about $1,000.00 a year. Madame von Meck later terminated
her friendship with Tchaikovsky, as well as his living allowance, when she, herself, was facing financial
difficulties. It was during the time of Madame von Meck's patronage, however, that Tchaikovsky created
the music for which he is most famous, including the music for the ballets of Swan Lake and The Sleeping
Beauty.

Tchaikovsky's music, well known for its rich melodic and sometimes melancholy passages, was one of
the first that brought serious dramatic music to dance. Before this, little attention had been given to the
music behind the dance. Tchaikovsky died on November 6, 1893, ostensibly of cholera, though there are
now some scholars who argue that he committed suicide.

A. development of Tchaikovsky's music for ballets
B. Tchaikovsky's relationship with Madame Von Meck
C. the life and music of Tchaikovsky

A. the music behind the dance had been taken seriously

B. the music behind the dance had been given very little attention.
C. serous dramatic music had been already brought to dance
D. music had been famous for its rich melodic passages

Passage 2. Read the passage and choose the best option.

Water scarcity is fast becoming one of the major limiting factors in world crop production. In many
areas, poor agricultural practices have led to increasing desertification and the loss of formerly arable

lands. Consequently, those plants species that are well adapted to survival in dry climates are being looked
at for an answer in developing more efficient crops to grow on marginally arable lands.

Plants uses several mechanisms to ensure their survival in desert environments. Some involve purely
mechanical and physical adaptations, such as the shape of the plant’s surface, smaller leaf size, and

extensive root systems. Some of the adaptations are related to chemical mechanisms. Many plants, such as
cacti, have internal gums and mucilages which give them water-retaining properties. Another chemical
mechanism is that of the epicuticular wax layer. This wax layer acts as an impervious cover to protect the
plant. It prevents excessive loss of internal moisture. It also protects the plant from external aggression,
which can come from inorganic agents such as gases, or organic agents which include bacteria ant plant
pets.
