5888 States's rights versus federal rights 5889 The participation of state governments in railroad, canal, and turnpike construction 5890 The roles of state and federal governments in the economy of the nineteenthcentury 5891 Regulatory activity by state governments 5889 The word “effect” in bold in paragraph is closest in meaning to A value B argument C influence D restraint All of the following are mentioned in the passage as areas that involved statevernments in the nineteenth century EXCEPT _ A mining B banking C manufacturing D higher education The word “distinct” in bold in paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A separate B innovative C alarming D provocative It can be inferred from the first paragraph that in the nineteenth century canals and railroads were _ built with money that came from the federal government much more expensive to build than they had been previously built predominantly in the western part of the country sometimes built in part by state companies The regulatory activities of state governments included all of the following EXCEPT _ A licensing of retail merchants B inspecting materials used in turnpike maintenance C imposing limits on price-fixing D control of lumber The word “setting” in bold in paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A discussing B analyzing C establishing D avoiding The word “ends” in bold in paragraph is closest in meaning to A benefits B decisions C services D goals According to the passage, which of the following is true of the Homestead Act of 1862?

by sight alone In many conditions, such as flying at night and landing in dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating Since human eyes are not very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby planes are moving The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave The echo of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave With radar, however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves Radio waves travel at the speed of light, about 300,000 kilometers in one second A radar set sends out a short burst of radio waves Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects By determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can determine the distance between the radar set and other objects The word ―radar‖, in fact, gets its name from the term ―radio detection and ranging‖ ―Ranging‖ is the term for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and storms 66 What is the main topic of this passage? B History of radar A The nature of radar D Types of ranging C Alternatives to radar 67 According to the passage, what can radar detect besides location of objects?

A argumentative B explanatory C humorous D imaginative According to the passage, the distance between a radar set and an object can be determined by _ the time it takes for a burst of radio waves to produce echoes when the waves bounce off the object the term ―ranging‖ used for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set the time it takes for the radio waves to produce echoes and bounce off the object 680 D the time it takes for the echoes produced by the radio waves to return to the radar set 72.Which type of waves does radar use?
