Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
Brown bears are found in Alaska and western of Canada. They are first cousins of the grizzly, each
belonging to the species Ursus arctos. The chief difference in them is size, as brown bears on the
average are slightly larger. A full-grown male may weigh 1,500 pounds and stand 9 to 10 feet tall.
Like bears everywhere they are creatures of habit that tread the same trails year after year. Brown
bears have three gaits: an even, deliberate one that takes them over rough or boggy ground at a
steady clip, a quick shuffle, and a fast gallop. They are not only surprisingly fast, but also, for such
huge beasts, amazingly inclines. Fishing the streams in summer, they pounce on swift-moving

salmon and snatch them with almost simultaneous movements of their paws and mouths. Brown
bears are excellent swimmers and love to loll and wallow in the water on warm days. They are also
curious and playful. Most manifest a fear of humans, but Alaskans prefer not to test these creatures
and usually carry noisemakers of some kind to warn the bears of their presence.

Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
In the 1960s, the first human explorations of space began. Today, scientists often debate the future
of manned space flight. Should we aim for the moon again, or for Mars? It always comes down to
concern about the length and expense of such journeys. Mars is a much more difficult challenge
than the moon.
Mars is so far away that it would take about two years for a human crew to complete the round trip,
including time spent on the planet’s surface. On the other hand, we know the moon can be visited in
a fraction of that time, as was proven by the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Distance poses other
dilemmas. A popular movie, Apollo 13, tells the exciting story of how NASA managed to rescue the
astronauts if the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission to the moon. With the tremendous distance between
Earth and Mars, emergency retrievals like this would be possible. The moon seem more feasible
from this point of view.


As with most projects, the crux of the matter is economics. In fact, NASA has estimated that a

managed flight to Mars would cost five hundred billion dollars. Critics argue that Mars is too far
and the moon is too useless to us to justify any manned space flights at all. Nevertheless, should we
choose to go ahead with space travel, it seems that returning to the moon is much more likely
proposition than Mars

Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
Brown bears are found in Alaska and western of Canada. They are first cousins of the grizzly, each
belonging to the species Ursus arctos. The chief difference in them is size, as brown bears on the
average are slightly larger. A full-grown male may weigh 1,500 pounds and stand 9 to 10 feet tall.
Like bears everywhere they are creatures of habit that tread the same trails year after year. Brown
bears have three gaits: an even, deliberate one that takes them over rough or boggy ground at a
steady clip, a quick shuffle, and a fast gallop. They are not only surprisingly fast, but also, for such
huge beasts, amazingly inclines. Fishing the streams in summer, they pounce on swift-moving
salmon and snatch them with almost simultaneous movements of their paws and mouths. Brown
bears are excellent swimmers and love to loll and wallow in the water on warm days. They are also
curious and playful. Most manifest a fear of humans, but Alaskans prefer not to test these creatures
and usually carry noisemakers of some kind to warn the bears of their presence.

Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
In the 1960s, the first human explorations of space began. Today, scientists often debate the future
of manned space flight. Should we aim for the moon again, or for Mars? It always comes down to
concern about the length and expense of such journeys. Mars is a much more difficult challenge
than the moon.
Mars is so far away that it would take about two years for a human crew to complete the round trip,
including time spent on the planet’s surface. On the other hand, we know the moon can be visited in
a fraction of that time, as was proven by the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Distance poses other
dilemmas. A popular movie, Apollo 13, tells the exciting story of how NASA managed to rescue the
astronauts if the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission to the moon. With the tremendous distance between
Earth and Mars, emergency retrievals like this would be possible. The moon seem more feasible
from this point of view.
As with most projects, the crux of the matter is economics. In fact, NASA has estimated that a
managed flight to Mars would cost five hundred billion dollars. Critics argue that Mars is too far
and the moon is too useless to us to justify any manned space flights at all. Nevertheless, should we
choose to go ahead with space travel, it seems that returning to the moon is much more likely
proposition than Mars
