VIII. Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question:

A geyser is the result of underground water under the combined conditions of
temperatures and increased pressure beneath the surface of the earth. Since temperature
rises approximately one degree F for every sixty feet under the earth’s surface and the
increases with depth, water that seeps down in cracks and fissures until it reaches to the
rocks in the earth’s interior becomes heated to a temperature in excess of 290degree.
Because of the greater pressure, it shoots out of the surface in the form of steam and hot
water. The result is a geyser.

For the most part, geysers are located in three regions of the world: New Zealand, Ice
land, and the Yellowstone National Park area of the United States. The most geyser in the
world is Old Faithful in Yellowstone Park. Old Faithful erupts almost every an hour, rising

3. Old Faithful erupts ...
A. every 10 minutes B. every 60 minutes

C. every 125 minutes D. every 170 minutes

4. A geyser is ...
A. hot water and steam B. cracks and fissures

C. hot rocks D. great pressure

5. As depth increases ...
A. pressure increases but temperature does not

B. temperature increases but pressure does not
C. both pressure and temperature increases

Jefferson, “ the object is to make the most of their land, labor being abundant; here it is to
make the most of our labour, land being abundant”. It was in America, therefore, that the
great advances in nineteen-century agricultural machinery first came.

At the opening of century, with the exception of a crude plow, farmers could have carried
practically all of the existing agricultural implements on their backs; by 1860, most of the
machinery in use today had been designed in an early form. The most important of the early
inventions was the iron plow. As early as 1790 Charles Newbold of New Jersey had been
working on the idea of a cast-iron plow and spent his entire fortune in introducing his
invention. The farmers, however, would have none of it, claiming that the iron poisoned the
soil and made the weeds grow. Nevertheless, many people devoted their attention to the
plow, until in 1869 James Oliver of South Bent, Indiana, turned out the first chilled-steel
plow.
