Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C ,or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for
each of the questions.

Coincident with concerns about the accelerating loss of species and 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 terrestrial organisms,
particularly the exceptionally rich life associated with tropical rain-forest 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 oflife.
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 twothirds of the Earth's surface is water and that marine life lives at all levels of the ocean, the total threedimensional 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 bacterial cells plus assorted microscopic plants and
animals, including larvae of organisms ranging fromsponges and corals to starfish and clams and much more.
Question 36: What is the main point of the passage?
A.Humans are destroying thousands of species.

B. There are thousands of insect species.
C.The sea is even richer in life than the rainforests.
D. Coral reefs are similar to rainforests.
Question 37: Why does the author compare rain forests and coral reefs in paragraph 1?
A. They are approximately the samesize.
B.They share many similarspecies.
C. Most of their inhabitants requirewater.
D.Both have many different forms of life.
Question 38. The word "bias" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____.
A.concern
B.disadvantage
C.attitude
D.prejudice
Question 39. Which of the following is true about the oceanaccording to the passage?
A. It’s 100 times greater thanland.
B. It contains more species than land.
C. It contains a vast majority of life on Earth.
D. It occupies on-third of the Earth’ssurface.
Question 40: The passage suggests that most rain forest species are _____.
A.insects
B.bacteria
C. mammals
D.birds
Question 41. The word "there" in paragraph 3 refers to ______.
A.the sea
B. the rainforests
C.a tree
D. the Earth's surface
Question 42. The author argues that there is more diversity of life in the seathan 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 a faster rate
Question 43. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an example of microscopic sea life?
A. Sponges B.Coral
C.Starfish
D.Shrimp


Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C ,or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer for each of the questions.
A massage is relaxing, and makes you feel great, but did you know that it's also good for you? That's what
doctors are now saying. Massage relieves pain and anxiety, eases depression and speeds up recovery from
medical problems.
Research has shown that people of all ages benefit from touch. Premature infants who are held develop faster
than those left alone, and healthy babies who get a lot of physical contact cry less and sleep better. Researchers
are not sure why this occurs but they have also found out that touch can slow heart rate, lower blood pressure and
increase levels of seratonin, the brain chemical that is linked to well-being. It also decreases levels of the stress
hormone cortisol, and this in turn increases your resistance to illness.
Massage also speeds up healing. Bone-marrow transplant patients who were given massages had better
neurological function than those who weren't. Furthermore, massage reduced pain by 37% in patients with
chronic muscle aches.
Giving someone a massage may be as good as getting one. A study conducted by the university of Miami found
that mothers suffering from depression felt better after massaging their infants. In that same study, elderly
volunteers who massaged infants reported feeling less anxious and depressed.
It even works when you do it yourself; 43% of headache sufferers reported getting relief after massaging their
temples and neck and smokers who were taught self-massage while trying to quit felt less anxiety and smoked
less.
Question 44: What has recently been said about getting a massage?
A. It relaxes you.

B. It makes you feel good.
C. It improves your physical condition.
D. It requires a special technique.
Question 45: Babies born before their time …..
A. cry less and sleep better if they are massaged.
B. grow faster if they are held.
C. develop faster than healthy babies if they get a lot of physical contact. D. don't survive if they are not held.
Question 46: The author suggests that touch ….
A. increases levels of the stress hormone cortisol. B. makes your heart beat faster.
C. increases the feeling of well-being.
D. helps you deal with your feelings.
Question 47: Patients who get massages ….
A. don't experience muscle pain.
B. avoid having surgery.
C. make a quicker recovery.
D. are not better off than those who do not.
Question 48: According to the article….
A. massage has no effect on smokers.
B. massage relieves headaches by 43%.
C. smokers who gave others massages felt less anxious and smoked less.
D. massaging yourself is as effective as being massaged.
Question 49: What did the study conducted in Miami show?
A. Elderly volunteers who got massages felt less anxious.
B. Mothers were depressed after massaging their babies.
C. Babies who got massages felt better.
D. Giving a massage is as beneficial as getting one.
Question 50: What is NOT true according to the article?
A. Mothers will suffer from depression if they don't massage their babies.
B. People can learn to massage themselves.
C. Massage is good for you regardless of whether you're giving or getting one.

D. It helps smokers quit smoking.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C ,or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer for each of the questions.
A massage is relaxing, and makes you feel great, but did you know that it's also good for you? That's what
doctors are now saying. Massage relieves pain and anxiety, eases depression and speeds up recovery from
medical problems.
Research has shown that people of all ages benefit from touch. Premature infants who are held develop faster
than those left alone, and healthy babies who get a lot of physical contact cry less and sleep better. Researchers
are not sure why this occurs but they have also found out that touch can slow heart rate, lower blood pressure and
increase levels of seratonin, the brain chemical that is linked to well-being. It also decreases levels of the stress
hormone cortisol, and this in turn increases your resistance to illness.
Massage also speeds up healing. Bone-marrow transplant patients who were given massages had better
neurological function than those who weren't. Furthermore, massage reduced pain by 37% in patients with
chronic muscle aches.
Giving someone a massage may be as good as getting one. A study conducted by the university of Miami found
that mothers suffering from depression felt better after massaging their infants. In that same study, elderly
volunteers who massaged infants reported feeling less anxious and depressed.
It even works when you do it yourself; 43% of headache sufferers reported getting relief after massaging their
temples and neck and smokers who were taught self-massage while trying to quit felt less anxiety and smoked
less.
Question 19: What has recently been said about getting a massage?
A. It relaxes you.
B. It makes you feel good.
C. It improves your physical condition.
D. It requires a special technique.
Question 20: Babies born before their time …..
A. cry less and sleep better if they are massaged.
B. grow faster if they are held.
C. develop faster than healthy babies if they get a lot of physical contact. D. don't survive if they are not held.
Question21: The author suggests that touch ….
A. increases levels of the stress hormone cortisol. B. makes your heart beat faster.

C. increases the feeling of well-being.
D. helps you deal with your feelings.
Question 22: Patients who get massages ….
A. don't experience muscle pain.
B. avoid having surgery.
C. make a quicker recovery.

A. Elderly volunteers who got massages felt less anxious.
B. Mothers were depressed after massaging their babies.
C. Babies who got massages felt better.
D. Giving a massage is as beneficial as getting one.
Question 25: What is NOT true according to the article?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C ,or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for
each of the questions.

Coincident with concerns about the accelerating loss of species and 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 terrestrial organisms,
particularly the exceptionally rich life associated with tropical rain-forest 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 oflife.
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 twothirds of the Earth's surface is water and that marine life lives at all levels of the ocean, the total threedimensional 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 bacterial cells plus assorted microscopic plants and
animals, including larvae of organisms ranging fromsponges and corals to starfish and clams and much more.
Question 43: What is the main point of the passage?
A.Humans are destroying thousands of species.
B. There are thousands of insect species.
C.The sea is even richer in life than the rainforests.

D. Coral reefs are similar to rainforests.
Question 44: Why does the author compare rain forests and coral reefs in paragraph 1?
A. They are approximately the samesize.
B.They share many similarspecies.
C. Most of their inhabitants requirewater.
D.Both have many different forms of life.
Question 45. The word "bias" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____.
A.concern
B.disadvantage
C.attitude
D.prejudice
Question 46. Which of the following is true about the oceanaccording to the passage?
A. It’s 100 times greater thanland.
B. It contains more species than land.
C. It contains a vast majority of life on Earth.
D. It occupies on-third of the Earth’ssurface.
Question 47: The passage suggests that most rain forest species are _____.
A.insects
B.bacteria
C. mammals
D.birds
Question 48. The word "there" in paragraph 3 refers to ______.
A.the sea
B. the rainforests
C.a tree
D. the Earth's surface
Question 49. The author argues that there is more diversity of life in the seathan 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 a faster rate
Question 50. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an example of microscopic sea life?
A. Sponges B.Coral
C.Starfish
D.Shrimp

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C ,or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for
each of the questions.

Coincident with concerns about the accelerating loss of species and 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 terrestrial organisms,
particularly the exceptionally rich life associated with tropical rain-forest 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 oflife.
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 twothirds of the Earth's surface is water and that marine life lives at all levels of the ocean, the total threedimensional 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 bacterial cells plus assorted microscopic plants and
animals, including larvae of organisms ranging fromsponges and corals to starfish and clams and much more.
Question 36: What is the main point of the passage?
A.Humans are destroying thousands of species.
B. There are thousands of insect species.
C.The sea is even richer in life than the rainforests.
D. Coral reefs are similar to rainforests.
Question 37: Why does the author compare rain forests and coral reefs in paragraph 1?
A. They are approximately the samesize.
B.They share many similarspecies.
C. Most of their inhabitants requirewater.
D.Both have many different forms of life.
Question 38. The word "bias" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____.
A.concern
B.disadvantage
C.attitude
D.prejudice
Question 39. Which of the following is true about the oceanaccording to the passage?
A. It’s 100 times greater thanland.

B. It contains more species than land.
C. It contains a vast majority of life on Earth.
D. It occupies on-third of the Earth’ssurface.
Question 40: The passage suggests that most rain forest species are _____.
A.insects
B.bacteria
C. mammals
D.birds
Question 41. The word "there" in paragraph 3 refers to ______.
A.the sea
B. the rainforests
C.a tree
D. the Earth's surface
Question 42. The author argues that there is more diversity of life in the seathan 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

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

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C ,or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer for each of the questions.


A massage is relaxing, and makes you feel great, but did you know that it's also good for you? That's what
doctors are now saying. Massage relieves pain and anxiety, eases depression and speeds up recovery from
medical problems.

Research has shown that people of all ages benefit from touch. Premature infants who are held develop faster
than those left alone, and healthy babies who get a lot of physical contact cry less and sleep better. Researchers
are not sure why this occurs but they have also found out that touch can slow heart rate, lower blood pressure and
increase levels of seratonin, the brain chemical that is linked to well-being. It also decreases levels of the stress
hormone cortisol, and this in turn increases your resistance to illness.
Massage also speeds up healing. Bone-marrow transplant patients who were given massages had better
neurological function than those who weren't. Furthermore, massage reduced pain by 37% in patients with
chronic muscle aches.
Giving someone a massage may be as good as getting one. A study conducted by the university of Miami found
that mothers suffering from depression felt better after massaging their infants. In that same study, elderly
volunteers who massaged infants reported feeling less anxious and depressed.
It even works when you do it yourself; 43% of headache sufferers reported getting relief after massaging their
temples and neck and smokers who were taught self-massage while trying to quit felt less anxiety and smoked
less.
Question 44: What has recently been said about getting a massage?
A. It relaxes you.
B. It makes you feel good.
C. It improves your physical condition.
D. It requires a special technique.
Question 45: Babies born before their time …..
A. cry less and sleep better if they are massaged.
B. grow faster if they are held.
C. develop faster than healthy babies if they get a lot of physical contact. D. don't survive if they are not held.
Question 46: The author suggests that touch ….
A. increases levels of the stress hormone cortisol. B. makes your heart beat faster.
C. increases the feeling of well-being.
D. helps you deal with your feelings.
Question 47: Patients who get massages ….
A. don't experience muscle pain.
B. avoid having surgery.

C. make a quicker recovery.
D. are not better off than those who do not.
Question 48: According to the article….
A. massage has no effect on smokers.
B. massage relieves headaches by 43%.
C. smokers who gave others massages felt less anxious and smoked less.
D. massaging yourself is as effective as being massaged.
Question 49: What did the study conducted in Miami show?
A. Elderly volunteers who got massages felt less anxious.
B. Mothers were depressed after massaging their babies.
C. Babies who got massages felt better.
D. Giving a massage is as beneficial as getting one.
Question 50: What is NOT true according to the article?
A. Mothers will suffer from depression if they don't massage their babies.
B. People can learn to massage themselves.
C. Massage is good for you regardless of whether you're giving or getting one.
