II. Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question.
One of the most important discoveries of the nineteenth century was a method of using natural
gas for cooking and heating. Large amounts of natural gas are found in the United States, usually
several feet below the surface of the earth. Natural gas is most often found in places where
petroleum, the oil from which gasoline is made, is found. Often the natural gas must be removed
before the oil itself can be reached.
For many years after natural gas was first discovered, it was thought to have no value. Finally,
however, people began to understand its use and to find ways of storing it and moving it from
place to place. Today natural gas is stored in large tanks and used for lighting, cooking and
heating. It has also been used for electric generators and hybrid cars recently. In many ways
natural gas is one of our finest fuels. It can be used for cooking without making the room hot. It is
cheap and can be moved easily from one place to another through long pipelines, some of which
are hundreds of miles in length.
1. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. natural gas is useless
B. people once wasted natural gas
C. natural gas is moved in trucks
D. natural gas is found where there is no petroleum
2. This passage as a whole is about ________.
A. discovering natural gas
B. finding petroleum
C. using natural gas and petroleum
D. natural gas and its use
3. Which of the following is NOT true about natural gas?

A. It is not used for heating.
B. It moves through pipes.
C. It is cheap.
D. It can be stored.
4. According to the passage, the easiest way to move natural gas from one place to another is
________.
A. to store it in large tanks to move
B. to liquidize it and move it by trucks
C. through pipelines
D. to liquidize it and move it through pipelines
5. How many uses of natural gas are mentioned?
A. two
B. three
C. four
D. five
III. Fill in each numbered blank of the following passage with ONE suitable word.
