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

            Fungi are a group of organisms that, despite being plants, have no leaves or flowers. In fact, fungi do not even share the green colour that most other plants display. Scientists estimate that there are over 1.5 million different species of fungi in the world. Though, to date, only 100.000 have been identified, leaving many more that have not been found. One interesting feature of fungi is that they often interact with oilier organisms in order to survive. These relationships are at times beneficial to both organisms. Other times, the fungus benefits without causing harm to the other organism.

            Many types of fungus have beneficial relationships with plants. Initially many gardeners would be concerned to know that their plants were colonised by a fungus. This is because some fungi can cause plants to die. In fact, the Irish potato famine was caused by a fungus that killed entire crops of potatoes. However, many plants actually depend on certain types of fungi to help it stay healthy. Fungi are important to plants because they help plants absorb more minerals from the soil than they could on their own. The reason for this has to do with how fungi obtain food. Unlike green plants, fungi cannot make their own food. They must absorb their food. When the fungi absorb minerals from the soil, they draw the nutrients closer to the roots of the plants, so the plant is able to use them as well. The fungus also benefits from this relationship. Using the minerals from the soil, as well as sunlight, the plants is able to produce sugars and other nutrients. Then the fungus absorbs the nutrients from plant roots and uses them to survive.

            Not all relationships are beneficial for both organisms: in some interactions, only the fungus benefits. Still, for some fungus species, contact with other organisms is essential. And though the fungi do not provide any benefits for the other organism, they do not harm it either. One example of this is a species called Pilobolus. This fungus relies on other animals to help it reproduce. The Pilobolus grows in animal dung. When it becomes mature, it shoots its spores away from the dung pile. The spores land in the grass where cows graze. The spores are consumed by the animal but do not grow while inside the stomach. They travel through the body of the animal until they are passed and deposited in another area, where they continue to grow.

Question 31: It can be inferred from paragraph 1 that___________

            A. Many species of fungi have yet to be discovered

            B. Fungi do harm to the organism they interact with

            C. Fungi can have green or dull brown colors

Question 34: The word "them" in the passage 2 refers to_________.

            A. minerals      B. plant roots  C. fungi           D. nutrients

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

Traditional methods of teaching no longer suffice in this technological world. Currently there are more than 100,000 computers in schoolrooms in the United States. Students mediocre and bright alike, from the first stage through high school not only are not intimidated by my computers, but have become avid participants in the computer epoch.

            Kids operating computer implement their curriculum with great versatility. A music student can program musical notes so that the computer will play Beethoven or the Beatles. For a biology class, the computer can produce a picture of the intricate envisage human biology in a profound way. A nuclear reactor is no longer an enigma to students who can see its workings in minute detail on a computer. In Wisconsi, the Chippewa Indians are studying their ancient and almost forgotten language with the aid of a computer. More commonly, the computer is used for drilling math and language concepts so that youngsters may learn at their own speed without trying the patience of their human teachers. The simplest computers aid the handicapped, who learn more rapidly from the computer than from humans. Once irksome, remedial drills and exercises now on computer are conducive to learning because the machine responds to correct answers with praise and to incorrect answers with frowns and even an occasional tear.

            Adolescents have become so exhilarated by computers that they have developed their own jargon, easily understood by their peers but leaving their disconcerted parents in the dark. They have shown so much fervor for computer that they have formed computer clubs, beguile their leisure hours in computer stores, and even attend computer camps. A Boy Scout can get a computer merit badge. One ingenious young student devised a computer game for Atari will earn him $100,000 in royalties This is definitely the computer age. Manufacturers of computers are presently getting tax write – offs for donating equipment to colleges and universities and are pushing for legislation to obtain further deductions for contributions to elementary and high school. Furthermore, the price of computer for home or office is being sold for less than $100. At that price every class in the country will soon have computer kids.

            Today we take electricity for granted and perhaps we do not realize just how useful this discovery has been. Steam was the first invention that replaced wind power. It was used to drive engines and was passed through pipes and radiators to warm rooms. Petrol mixed with air was the next invention that provided power. Exploded in a cylinder, it drove a motor engine. Beyond these simple and direct uses, those forms have not much adaptability. On the other hand, we make use of electricity in thousands of ways. From the powerful voltages that drive our electric trains to the tiny current needed to work in a simple calculator, and from the huge electric magnet in steel works that can lift 10 tons to the tiny electric magnet in a doorbell, all are powered by electricity. An electric current can be made with equal ease to heat the huge mass of molten metal in a furnace, or to boil a jug for a cup of coffee. Other than atomic energy, which has not as yet been harnessed to the full, electricity is the greatest power in the world. It is flexible, and so adaptable for any task for which it is wanted. It travels so easily and with incredible speed along wires or conductors that it can be supplied instantly over vast distances. To generate electricity, huge turbines or generators must be turned. In Australia, they use coal or water to drive this machinery. When dams are built, falling water is used to drive the turbines without polluting the atmosphere with smoke from coal. Atomic power is used in several countries but there is always fear of an accident. A tragedy once occurred at Chernobyl, in Ukraine, at an atomic power plant used to make electricity. The reactor leaked, which caused many deaths through radiation. Now scientists are examining new ways of creating electricity without harmful effects to the environment. They may harness the tides as they flow in and out of bays. Most importantly, they hope to trap sunlight more efficiently. We do use solar heaters for swimming pools but as yet improvement in the capacity of the solar cells to create more current is necessary. When this happens, electric cars will be viable and the world will rid itself of the toxic gases given off by trucks and cars that burn fossil fuels.

Question 1: The author mentions the sources of energy such as wind, steam, petrol in the first paragraph to ____________.

Question 3: What does the author mean by saying that electricity is flexible?

            A. It can be adapted to various uses.  B. It can be made with ease.

            C. It is used to drive motor engines    D. It is cheap and easy to use.

Question 4: What do we call machines that make electricity?

            A. electric magnets                 B. generators or turbines

            C. pipes and radiators             D. voltages

            A. harmful effects       B. scientists     C. the tides      D. new ways

Question 7: Electric magnets are used in steel works to ________.

            A. lift heavy weights up to ten tons    B. boil a jug of water

            C. test the steel for strength    D. eat the molten steel

Question 8: The advantage of harnessing the power of the tides and of sunlight to generate electricity is that they _______.

            A. are more reliable                 B. do not require attention

            C. are more adaptable             D. do not pollute the environment

Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have no resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of the whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally: spelling, however, can not. 

Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. 

Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.

Question 13: Which of the following best summarizes this passage?

            A. Everybody uses only one form of communication

            B. When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication.

            C. Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners.

            D. Although other forms of communication exist, verbalization is the fastest.

Question 14: The word “these" is the first passage refers to_________.

            A. tourists                   B. the deaf and the mute

            C. thoughts and feelings         D. sign language motions

Question 15: All of the following statements are true EXCEPT______________

            A. the deaf and the mute use an oral form of communication

            B. verbalization is the most common form of communication

            C. there are many forms of communication in existence today

            D. ideas and thoughts can be transmitted by body language

            A. Body language       B. Picture signs           C. Braille         D. Signal flags

Question 17: How many different forms of communication are mentioned here?

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

The classic Neanderthals, who lived between about 70,000 and 30,000 years ago, shared a number of special characteristics. Like any biological population, Neanderthals also showed variation in the degree to which those characteristics were expressed. Generally, they were powerfully built, short and stocky, with the lower parts of their arms and legs short in relation to the upper parts, as in modern peoples who live in cold environments. Neanderthal skulls were distinctive, housing brains even larger on average than those of modern humans, a feature that may have had more to do with their large, heavy bodies than with superior intelligence. Seen from behind, Neanderthal skulls look almost spherical, but from the side they are long and flattened often with a bulging back. 

            The Neanderthal face, dominated by a projecting and full nose, differed clearly from the faces of other hominids; the middle parts appear to be pulled forward (or the sides pulled back), resulting in a rather streamlined face shape. This peculiarity may have been related to the greater importance (in cultural activities as well as food processing) of the front teeth, which are large and part of a row of teeth that lies well forward in the head; it may reflect a reduction in importance of certain jaw muscles operating at the sides of the face; or it may reflect an adaptation to cold. Whether it results from any or all of these three factors or from other, undiscovered causes, this midfacial projection is so characteristic that it unfailingly identifies a Neanderthal to the trained eye. Neanderthal teeth are much more difficult to characterize: the front teeth are large, with strong roots, but the back teeth may be relatively small. This feature may have been an adaptation to cope with heavy tooth wear.

Question 3: Which of the following explanations is not cited as a possible explanation of the Neanderthal’s streamlined face shape?

            A. The nose was set far back

            B. Some jaw muscles had limited use

            C. The front teeth were particularly important

            D. The facial features were well adapted to the cold

Question 4: The paragraph following this passage most probably discusses

            A. cave painting of prehistoric time   B. flora and fauna of 70000 years ago

            C. other features of the Neanderthal anatomy.           D. difficulites in perserving fossils.

Question 5: Where in the passage does the author specifically stress the contrast between the Neanderthal face and that of other biologically related population?

            A. Lines 1-4    B. Line 18-20  C. Lines 7-9    D. Line 10-11

Question 6: What does the passage mainly discuss?

            A. The effect of climate on human development

            B. A comparison of various prehistoric populations

            C. The eating habits of the Neanderthals

            D. The physical characteristics of the Neanderthals

Question 7: The author describes the Neanderthals as being all of the following EXCEPT _________

            A. short           B. stocky         C. strong         D. swift

Question 8: In paragraph 2, the author uses the expression “heavy tooth wear” to imply that the Neanderthals _________

            A. used their teeth extensively            B. regularly pulled our their teeth

            C. used teeth for ornamentation         D. had unusually heavy teeth

Question 9: Which of the following most likely accounts for the fact that the Neanderthal brain was larger than that of the modern human?

            A. The Neanderthal’s midfacial projection   

            B. The swelling behind the Neanderthal’s head

            C. The relatively large size of the Neanderthal’s body.

            D. The superior intelligence of the Neanderthal.

Question 10: The phrase “the trained eye” most likely refers to which of the following professionals?

            A. A dentist    B. An anthropologist   C. A photographer      D. An optometrist
