The Planets of Jupiter The largest of the giant gas planets, Jupiter, with a volume 1,300 times greater than Earth’s, contains more than twice the mass of all the other planets combined. It is thought to be a gaseous and.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(3)</span> fluid planet without solid surfaces, Had it been somewhat more massive, Jupiter might have attained internal temperatures as high as the ignition point for nuclear reactions, and it would have flamed as a star in its own right. Jupiter and the other giant planets are of a low-density type quite distinct from the terrestrial planets: they are composed predominantly of such substances as hydrogen, helium, ammonia, and methane, unlike terrestrial planets. Much of Jupiter’s interior might be in the form of liquid, metallic hydrogen, Normally, hydrogen is a gas, but under pressures of millions of kilograms per square centimeter, which exist in the deep interior of Jupiter, the hydrogen atoms might lock together to form a liquid with the properties of a metal. Some scientists believe that the innermost core of Jupiter might be rocky, or metallic like the core of Earth. Jupiter rotates very fast, once every 9.8 hours. As a result, its clouds, which are composed largely of frozen and liquid ammonia, have been whipped into alternating dark and bright bands that circle the planet at different speeds in different latitudes. Jupiter’s puzzling Great Red Spot changes size as it hovers in the Southern Hemisphere. Scientists speculate it might be a gigantic hurricane, which because of its large size (the Earth could easily fit inside it), lasts for hundreds of years. Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as it receives from the Sun. Perhaps this is primeval heat or beat generated by the continued gravitational contraction of the planet. Another star like characteristic of Jupiter is its sixteen natural satellites, which, like a miniature model of the Solar System, decrease in density with distance from rocky moons close to Jupiter to icy moons farther away. If Jupiter were about 70 times more massive, it would have become a star, Jupiter is the best-preserved sample of the early solar nebula, and with its satellites, might contain the most important clues about the origin of the Solar System. Question 35. Which of the following statements is supported by the passage? A. If Jupiter had fewer satellites, it would be easier for scientists to study the planet itself. B. If Jupiter had had more mass, it would have developed internal nuclear reactions. C. If Jupiter had been smaller, it would have become a terrestrial planet. D. if Jupiter were larger, it would give off much less heat. Question 36. The word attained in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to___________. A. attempted B. lost C. changed D. reached Question 37. The word they in paragraph 1 refers to___________. A. nuclear reactions B. giant planets C. terrestrial D. substances Question 38. According to the passage, hydrogen can become a metallic-like liquid when it is___________. A. extremely hot B. combined with helium C. similar atmospheres D. metallic cores Question 39. According to the passage, some scientists believe Jupiter and Earth are similar in that they both have___________. A. solid surfaces B. similar masses C. similar atmospheres D. metallic cores Question 40. The clouds surrounding Jupiter are mostly composed of___________. A. ammonia B. helium C. hydrogen D. methane Question 41. It can be inferred from the passage that the appearance of alternating bands circling Jupiter is caused by___________. A. the Great Red Spot B. heat from the Sun C. the planet’s fast rotation D. Storms from the planet’s Southern Hemisphere Question 42. The author uses the word puzzling in paragraph 2 to suggest that the Great Red Spot is ___________. A. the only spot of its kind B. not well understood C. among the largest of such spots D. a problem for the planet’s continued existence Question 43. Paragraph 3 supports which of the following conclusions? A. Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as the Sun. B. Jupiter has a weaker gravitational force than the other planets. C. Scientists believe that Jupiter was once a star..

<span class='text_page_counter'>(4)</span> D. Scientists might learn about the beginning of the Solar System by Studying Jupiter. Question 44. Why does the author mention primeval heat in paragraph 3? A. To provide evidence that Jupiter is older than the Sun. B. To provide evidence that Jupiter is older than the other planets. C. To suggest a possible explanation for the number of satellites that Jupiter has. D. To suggest a possible source of the quantity of heat that Jupiter gives off.

Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions. Large animals that inhabit the desert have evolved a number of adaptations for reducing the effects of extreme heat. One adaptation is to be light in color, and to reflect rather than absorb the Sun’s rays. Desert mammals also depart from the normal mammalian practice of maintaining a constant body temperature. Instead of trying to keep down the body temperature deep inside the body, which would involve the expenditure of water and energy, desert mammals allow their temperatures to rise to what would normally be fever height, and temperatures as high as 46 degrees Celsius have been measured in Grant’s gazelles. The overheated body then cools down during the cold desert night, and indeed the temperature may fall unusually low by dawn, as low as 34 degrees Celsius in the camel. This is an advantage since the heat of the first few hours of daylight is absorbed in warming up the body, and an excessive buildup of heat does not begin until well into the day. Another strategy of large desert animals is to tolerate the loss of body water to a point that would be fatal for non-adapted animals. The camel can lose up to 30 percent of its body weight as water without harm to itself, whereas human beings die after losing only 12 to 13 percent of their body weight. An equally important adaptation is the ability to replenish this water loss at one drink. Desert animals can drink prodigious volumes in a short time, and camels have been known to imbibe over 100 liters in a few minutes. A very dehydrated person, on the other hand, cannot drink enough water to rehydrate at one session, because the human stomach is not sufficiently big and because a too rapid.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(5)</span> dilution of the body fluids causes death from water intoxication. The tolerance of water loss is of obvious advantage in the desert, as animals do not have to remain near a water hole but can obtain food from grazing sparse and far-flung pastures. Desert-adapted mammals have the further ability to feed normally when extremely dehydrated, it is a common experience in people that appetite is lost even under conditions of moderate thirst. Question 55: What is the main topic of the passage? A. Weather variations in the desert B. Adaptations of desert animals. C. Diseased of desert animals D. Human use of desert animals. Question 56: According to the passage, why is light coloring an advantage to large desert animals? A. It helps them hide from predators B. It does not absorb sunlight as much as dark colors C. It helps them see their young at night. D. It keeps them cool at night. Question 57: The word “maintaining” is closest in meaning to___________. A. measuring B. inheriting C. preserving D. delaying Question 58: The author uses of Grant’s gazelle as an example of___________. A. an animal with a low average temperature B. an animal that is not as well adapted as the camel C. a desert animal that can withstand high body temperatures D. a desert animal with a constant body temperature Question 59: When is the internal temperature of a large desert mammal lower? A. Just before sunrise B. In the middle of the day C. Just after sunset D. Just after drinking Question 60: The word “tolerate” is closest in meaning to___________. A. endure B. replace C. compensate D. reduce Question 61: What causes water intoxication? A. Drinking too much water very quickly B. Drinking polluted water C. Bacteria in water. D. Lack of water.
