b. He employed a wide range of colors
c. He disdained color.
d. He rejected whatever was considered innovative.

Read the text and answer the question.
An example of a bizarre occurrence regarding a species of frog dates from the summer of
1995, when 'an explosion' of multi-coloured frogs of the species Rana klepton esculenta
occurred in the Netherlands. Normally these frogs are brown and greenish-brown, but
some unknown contributory factor is turning these frogs yellow and/or orange.
Nonetheless, so far, the unusual bi- and even tri-coloured frogs are functioning similarly
to their normal-skinned contemporaries. It is thought that frogs with lighter coloured
skins might be more likely to survive in an increasingly warm climate due to global
warming.
What is best heading for the paragraph?

a. The mystery of amphibian decline.
b. Multi-coloured frog species cause problems
c. Frogs making changes to the ecosystem.

You are aware that the enzyme hunters have been replaced by a new breed of hunters
who are tracking genes-the blueprints for each of the enzymes-and are discovering the
defective genes that cause inherited diseases-diabetes, cystic fibrosis. These gene hunters,
or genetic engineers, use recombinant DNA technology to identify and clone genes and
introduce them into bacterial cells and plants to create factories for the massive
production of hormones and vaccines for medicine and for better crops for agriculture.
Biotechnology has become a multibillion-dollar industry.

The World Wide Web, an enormous collection of Internet addresses or sites, all of which
can be accessed for information, has been mainly responsible for the increase in interest
in the Internet in the 1990s. Before the World Wide Web, the 'Net' was comparable to an
integrated collection of computerised typewriters, but the introduction of the 'Web' in
1990 allowed not only text links to be made but also graphs, images and even video. A
Web site consists of a 'home page', the first screen of a particular site on the computer to
which you are connected, from where access can be had to other subject related 'pages' at
the site and to thousands of other computers all over the world. This is achieved by a
process called 'hypertext'. By clicking with a mouse device on various parts of the screen,
a person connected to the 'Net' can go travelling, or 'surfing' through a web of pages to
locate whatever information is required.

Almost everyone with or without a computer is aware of the latest technological
revolution destined to change forever the way in which humans communicate, namely,
the Information Superhighway, best exemplified by the ubiquitous Internet. Already,
millions of people around the world are linked by computer simply by having a modem
and an address on the 'Net', in much the same way that owning a telephone links us to
almost anyone who pays a phone bill. In fact, since the computer connections are made
via the phone line, the Internet can be envisaged as a network of visual telephone links. It
remains to be seen in which direction the Information Superhighway is headed, but many
believe it is the educational hope of the future.

The first two decades of this century were dominated by the microbe hunters. These
hunters had tracked down one after another of the microbes responsible for the most
dreaded scourges of many centuries: tuberculosis, cholera, diphtheria. But there remained

some terrible diseases for which no microbe could be incriminated: scurvy, pellagra,
rickets, beriberi. Then it was discovered that these diseases were caused by the lack of
vitamins, a trace substance in the diet. The diseases could be prevented or cured by
consuming foods that contained the vitamins. And so in the decades of the 1920's and
1930's, nutrition became a science and the vitamin hunters replaced the microbe hunters.
In the 1940's and 1950's, biochemists strived to learn why each of the vitamins was
essential for health. They discovered that key enzymes in metabolism depend on one or
another of the vitamins as coenzymes to perform the chemistry that provides cells with
energy for growth and function. Now, these enzyme hunters occupied center stage.
You are aware that the enzyme hunters have been replaced by a new breed of hunters
who are tracking genes-the blueprints for each of the enzymes-and are discovering the
defective genes that cause inherited diseases-diabetes, cystic fibrosis. These gene hunters,
or genetic engineers, use recombinant DNA technology to identify and clone genes and
introduce them into bacterial cells and plants to create factories for the massive
production of hormones and vaccines for medicine and for better crops for agriculture.
Biotechnology has become a multibillion-dollar industry.

In view of the inexorable progress in science, we can expect that the gene hunters will be
replaced in the spotlight. When and by whom? Which kind of hunter will dominate the
scene in the last decade of our waning century and in the early decades of the next? I
wonder whether the hunters who will occupy the spotlight will be neurobiologists who
apply the techniques of the enzyme and gene hunters to the functions of the brain. What
to call them? The head hunters. I will return to them later.

As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and Zuni Indians of North
America were building with adobe — sun-baked brick plastered with mud. Their homes
looked remarkably like modem apartment houses. Some were four stories high and
contained quarters for perhaps a thousand people, along with storerooms for grain and
other goods. These buildings were usually put up against cliffs, both to make construction
easier and for defense against enemies. They were really villages in themselves, as later
Spanish explorers must have realized since they called them “pueblos,” which is Spanish
for towns.
The people of the pueblos raised what are called “the three sisters” — corns, beans, and
squash. They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous baskets, some so fine that they
could hold water. The Southwest has always been a dry country, where water is scarce.
The Hopi and Zuni brought water from streams to their fields and gardens through
irrigation ditches. Water was so important that it played a major role in their religion.
They developed elaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring rain.

The way of life of less-settled groups was simpler and more strongly influenced by
nature. Small tribes such as the Shoshone and Ute wandered the dry and mountainous
lands between the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. They gathered seeds and

hunted small animals such as rabbits and snakes. In the Far North the ancestors of today’s
Inuit hunted seals, walnises, and the great whales. They lived right on the frozen seas in
shelters called igloos built of blocks of packed snow. When summer came, they fished for
salmon and hunted the lordly caribou.

The Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Sioux tribes, known as the Plains Indians, lived on the
grasslands between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River. They hunted bison,
