Scientists have discovered the bones of what may be the largest meat-eating dinosaur ever to walk the earth.

Besides the interesting fact that the dinosaur was huge and horrifying, it is even more astounding that the bones of a number of the dinosaurs were found together. This discovery challenges the prior theory that the biggest meat-eaters lived as loners and instead indicates that they may have lived and hunted in packs. The Tyrannosaurus Rex lived in North America and was believed to hunt and live alone. The newly discovered meat-eater appears to be related to the Giganotosaurus family, being as closely related to it as a fox would be to a dog. It is actually not of the same family at all as the Tyrannosaurus Rex, being as different from it as a cat is from a dog. The fossilized remains indicate that the animals lived about 100 million years ago. With needle-shaped noses and razor sharp teeth, they were larger than the Tyrannosaurus Rex, although their legs were slightly shorter, and their jaws were designed to be better able to dissect their prey quickly and precisely. 36. The author states that the newly discovered dinosaur remains are evidence that it was the largest A. dinosaur ever. B. carnivorous dinosaur. C. herbivorous dinosaur. D. South American dinosaur. 37.

The author implies that the most interesting fact about the find is that this dinosaur ________ . A. lived and hunted with others. B. had a powerful jaw and sharp teeth. C. was found in the Andes. D. was larger than Tyrannosaurus Rex. 41. The passage indicates that prior to this discovery scientists believed that ________. A. meat-eating dinosaurs lived alone. B. there were no meat-eating dinosaurs in the Andes. C. Tyrannosaurus Rex lived in the Andes. D. meat-eating dinosaurs were small in stature. 42. The word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ________. A. newly discovered meat-eater B. relationship C. Giganotosaurus D. dog 43.

Even a muddy pond contributes to the ecosystem that affects the environment. A vernal or springtime pool is only a few feet deep and lasts only from March until midsummer but yields a considerable number of diverse life forms. Like all of nature, there are predators and victims, and a particular living being may be one or the other, depending on its age and characteristics. One may find masses of spotted salamander eggs floating just under the surface of the pond, left behind by adults who entered the pond early in the season before predators arrived. Other amphibians and reptiles return to the recurrent pond year after year to reproduce, as their ancestors have done for years. Various forms of algae grow well in the murky water, if there is sufficient sunlight. They in turn produce and transmit oxygen to the salamander embryos and other young that are not yet able to survive outside of water. Diving beetles feast on eggs and larvae deposited in the pond by the salamanders and other amphibians that have called it home. Tadpoles are born in the late spring and feed on the algae. The pond also invites wood frogs staking their territory and courting potential mates, calling as loud as quacking ducks.
