the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your ans wer sheet to indicate the correct ans wer to each of the questions from 31 to 40

The conservatism of the early English colonists in North America, their strong attachment to

the English way of doing things, would play a major part in the furniture that was made in New England The very tools that the first New England furniture makers used were, after all, not

much different from those used for centuries – even millennia: basic hammers, saws, chisels,

planes, augers, compasses, and measures These were the tools used more or less by all people who worked with wood: carpenters, barrel makers, and shipwrights At most the furniture makers might have had planes with special edges or more delicate chisels, but there could not have been much specialization in the early years of the colonies

The furniture makers in those early decades of the 1600‟s were known as “joine rs”, for the

primary method of constructing furniture, at least among the English of this time, was that of mortise-and- tenon joinery The mortise is the hole chiseled and cut into one piece of wood,

while the tenon is the tongue or protruding element shaped from another piece of wood so that

it fits into the mortise; and another small hole is then drilled (with the auger) through the

mortised end and the tenon so that a whittled peg can secure the joint – thus the term “joiner”

Panels were fitted into slots on the basic frames This kind of construction was used for making everything from houses to chests

Relatively little hardware was used during this period Some nails – forged by hand – were used, but no screws or glue Hinges were often made of leather, but metal hinges were also used The

cruder varieties were made by blacks miths in the colonies, but the finer metal elements were imported Locks and escutcheon plates – the latter to s hield the wood from the metal key –

would often be imported

Above all, what the early English colonists imported was their knowledge of, familiarity with,

and dedication to the traditional types and designs of furniture they knew in England

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your ans wer sheet to indicate the correct ans wer to each of the questions from 51 to 60

Birds that feed in flocks commonly retire together into roosts The reasons for roosting

communally are not always obvious, but there are some likely benefits In winter especially, it is

important for birds to keep warm at night and conserve precious food reserves One way to do

this is to find a sheltered roost Solitary roosters shelter in dense vegetation or enter a cavity – horned larks dig holes in the ground and ptarmigan burrow into snow banks – but the effect of

sheltering is magnified by several birds huddling together in the roosts, as wrens, swifts, brown

creepers, bluebirds, and anis do Body contact reduces the surface area exposed to the cold air, so

the birds keep each other warm Two kinglets huddling together were found to reduce their heat

losses by a quarter and three together saved a third of their heat

The second possible benefit of communal roosts is that they act as "information centers." During

the day, parties of birds will have spread out to forage over a very large area When they return

in the evening some will have fed well, but others may have found little to eat Some

investigators have observed that when the birds set out again next morning, those birds that did not feed well on the previous day appear to follow those that did The behavior of common and lesser kestrels may illustrate different feeding behaviors of similar b irds with different roosting habits The common kestrel hunts vertebrate animals in a small, familiar hunting ground,

whereas the very similar lesser kestrel feeds on insects over a large area The common kestrel roosts and hunts alone, but the lesser kestrel roosts and hunts in flocks, possibly so one bird can learn from others where to find insect swarms

Finally, there is safety in numbers at communal roosts since there will always be a few birds awake at any given moment to give the alarm But this increased protection is partially

counteracted by the fact that mass roosts attract predators and are especially vulnerable if they

are on the ground Even those in trees can be attacked by birds of prey The birds on the edge are

at greatest risk since predators find it easier to catch small birds perching at the margins of the roost

Question 51: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A How birds find and store food

B How birds maintain body heat in the winter

A caused

B modified

C intensified

D combined

Question 55: The author mentions kinglets in paragraph 1 as an example of birds that

A protect themselves by nesting in holes

B nest with other species of birds

C nest together for warmth

D usually feed and nest in pairs
