this (54 ) was in an area called Newetowne, which was later renamed Cambridge (55 ) its English cousin and is the site of the present-day university When a young minister named John Harvard, who came from the neighboring town of Charlestowne, (56 ) from tuberculosis in 1638, he willed half of his estate of 1,700 pounds to the fledgling college In spite of the fact that only half of the bequest was actually (57 _ ), the General Court named the college after the minister in appreciation for (58 _ ) he had done The amount of the bequest may not have been large, particularly by today’s standard, but it was more than the General Court had found it necessary to appropriate in order to open the college Henry Dunster was appointed the first president of Harvard in 1640, and it should be noted that in (59 _) to serving as president, he was also the entire faculty, with an entering freshmen class of four students Although the staff did expand somewhat, for the first century of (60 _ ) existence the entire teaching staff consisted of the president and three or four tutors Question II: Read the following passage and then answer the questions Write your answers on your answer sheet Mutualism is a type of symbiosis that occurs when two unlike organisms live together in a state that is mutually beneficial It can exist between two animals, between two plants, or between a plant and an animal Mutualism is unlike the symbiotic state of commensalism in that commensalism is a one-sided state in which a host gives a guest takes, while in mutualism both partners live on a give-and-take basis In the African wilds, the zebra and the ostrich enjoy a symbiotic relationship that enhances the ability of each of these large land animals to survive Both serve as prey for the lion and neither has the capability alone to withstand an attack from this fierce hunter However, when the zebra and the ostrich collaborate in their defense by alerting each other to possible danger from an approaching predator, the lion is rarely able to capture more than the oldest or feeblest of the herd The complementary physical strengths and weaknesses of the ostrich and the zebra allow them to work in coordination to avoid succumbing to the lion The ostrich, the largest flightless bird possesses great speed and keen eyesight, which enable it to spot large predatory animals long before they are able to position themselves to attack The zebra, with a running speed equal to that of the ostrich, has excellent hearing and a good sense of smell but lacks the sharp eyesight of the ostrich When ostriches and zebras intermix for grazing, each animal benefits from the ability of the other to detect approaching danger If either animal senses danger, both animals are alerted and take off With the running speed that both of these animals possess, they are able to outrun any predator except the cheetah Question 61 How is the information in the passage organized?

A The ostrich is unable to fly B The ostrich is able to see better than the zebra C The zebra hears and smells well D The zebra is able to run faster than the ostrich Question 66 The word “collaborate” in line is closest in meaning to _ A make observation B make a stand C run and hide D work together Question 67 The pronoun “it” in line 13 refers to _ A eyesight B world C speed D ostrich Question 68 What is implied in the passage about the zebra and the ostrich? A Their relationship is not symbiotic B They share a mutualistic relationship C The lion is prey for both of them D They have a commensalist relationship Question 69 What is “commensalisms” in line 3? A A relationship in which both partners are hurt B A relationship that is beneficial for both partners C A specific kind of mutualistic relationship D A relationship that is beneficial to only one partner Question 70 What is stated in the passage about the lion? A It is usually able to catch only weaker zebras and ostriches B It does not hurt old or feeble zebras and ostriches C It is easily able to capture zebras and ostriches D It never hunts zebras and ostriches Question III: Read the following passage and then choose the most suitable word or phrase for each space Write the answers on your answer sheet Employers in many countries change jobs more often than previous generations of workers They don’t expect to find a job with a company that will take care of them for the (71) of their lives But what is the cause of this trend?
