II. 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 61 to 70. (5.0 pts)

Coincident with concerns about the accelerating loss of species, habitats has been a growing

appreciation of the importance of biological diversity, the number of species in a particular ecosystem, to
the health of the Earth and human well-being. Much has been written about the diversity of the terrestrial
organisms, particularly the exceptionally rich life associated with tropical rainforest habitats. Relatively little
has been said, however, about diversity of life in the sea even though coral reef systems are comparable to
rain forests in terms of richness of life.

An alien exploring Earth would probably give priority to the planet’s dominant, most-distinctive
feature-the ocean. Humans have a bias toward land that sometimes gets in the way of truly examining global issues.
Seen from far away, it is easy to realize that landmasses occupy only one-third of the Earth’s surface. Given
that two-thirds of the Earth’s surface is water and that marine life lives at all levels of the ocean, the total
three-dimensional living space of the ocean is perhaps 100 times greater than that of land and contains more
than 90 percent of all life on Earth even though the ocean has fewer distinct species.

The fact that half of the known species are thought to inhabit the world’s rain forests does not seem
surprising, considering the huge numbers of insects that comprise the bulk of the species. One scientist found
many different species of ants in just one tree from a rain forest. While every species is different from every
other species, their genetic makeup constrains them to be insects and to share similar characteristics with
750,000 species of insects. If basic, broad categories such as phyla and classes are given more emphasis than
differentiating between species, then the greatest diversity of life is unquestionably the sea. Nearly every
major type of plant and animal has some representation there.

To appreciate fully the diversity and abundance of life in the sea, it helps to think small. Every spoonful
of ocean water contains life, on the order of 100 to 100,000 bacteria cells plus assorted microscopic plants
and animals, including larvae of organism ranging from sponges and corals to starfish and clams and much
more.

61.What is the main point of the passage?

A. There are thousands of insect species. B. Humans are destroying thousands of species.

C. Coral reefs are similar to rain forests. D. The sea is even richer in life than the rain forests.
62.The word “appreciation” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.

A. ignorance B. recognition C. tolerance D. forgiveness
63.Why does the author compare rain forests and coral reefs in paragraph 1?

A. They are approximately the same size. B. They share many similar species.
C. Most of their inhabitants require water. D. Both have many different forms of life.
64.The word “bias” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to __________

A. concern B. disadvantage C. attitude D. prejudice
65.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “accelerating”?

A. ceasing B. rising C. swelling D. increasing

66.The passage suggests that most rain forest species are __________.

A. insects B. bacteria C. mammals D. birds

67.The word “there” refers to __________.

A. the sea B. the rain forests C. a tree D. the Earth’s surface

68.The author argues that there is more diversity of life in the sea than in the rain forests because
__________.

A . more phyla and classes of life are represented in the sea.
B. There are too many insects to make meaningful distinctions.
C. Many insect species are too small to divide into categories.
D. Marine life-forms reproduce at faster rate.

A. Sponges B. Coral C. Starfish D. Shrimp

70.Which of the following conclusions is supported by the passage?
A.Ocean life is highly adaptive.

III/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 71 to 80.( 5.0 points)

Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the
crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since
man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely
comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop.

Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand
its desiccating effects. No moist- skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found.
The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is
open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is
largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated.

Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the
word. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive
if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes.
So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to
hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches
down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

71. The title for this passage could be .

A. “Animal Life in a Desert Environment” B. “Desert Plants”
C. “Man’s Life in a Desert Environment” D. “Life Underground”
72. The word “tissues” in the passage mostly means .

A. “the smallest units of living matter that can exist on their own”

B. “the simplest forms of life that exist in air, water, living and dead creatures and plants”
C. “collections of cells that form the different parts of humans, animals and plants”
D. “very small living things that cause infectious disease in people, animals and plants”

73. Man can hardly understand why many animals live their whole life in the desert, as .
A. water is an essential part of his existence

B. water composes the greater part of the tissues of living things
C. very few lager animals are found in the desert

</div>
(7)<div class='page_container' data-page=7>

D. sources of flowing water are rare in a desert

74. The phrase “those forms” in the passage refers to all of the following EXCEPT

A. many large animals B. water-loving animals

C. moist-skinned animals D. the coyote and the bobcat
75. According to the passage, creatures in the desert .

A. are more active during the day than those in the tangled forest
B. are not as healthy as those anywhere else in the world

C. run and leap more slowly than those in the tangled forest
D. run and leap faster than those in the tangled forest

76. The author mentions all the following as examples of the behavior of desert animals EXCEPT .
A. they dig home underground B. they sleep during the day

C. they are watchful and quiet D. they are noisy and aggressive
77. The word “emaciated” in the passage mostly means .

A. “living or growing in natural conditions, not kept in a house or on a farm”
B. “large and strong, difficult to control or deal with”

C. “thin and weak because of lack of food and water”

D. “able to get what one wants in a clever way, especially by tricking or cheating”
78. According to the passage, one characteristic of animals living in the desert is that
A. they are smaller and fleeter than forest animals

B. they can hunt in temperature of 150 degrees
C. they live in an accommodating environment

D. they are less healthy than animals living in other places

79. The word “burrows” in the passage mostly means .

A. “places where a particular type of animal or plant is normally found”
B. “holes or tunnels in the ground made by animals for them to live in”

C. “places where insects or other small creatures live and produce their young”
D. “structures made of metal bars in which animals or birds are kept”

80. We can infer from the passage that .

A. desert life is colorful and diverse B. living things adjust to their environment
C. healthy animals live longer lives D. water is the basis of desert life

work. She was sure that she heard a noise outside the window, so
she looked up. A shadow was moving slowly through garden. Her
heart raced. She turned out the light that she could see better. There
was nobody there. But she saw that it had snowed earlier evening

and across the grass was a line of footprints. A fox had walked
across right in front of the window, and now it was looking her
from far corner of the garden.
