For many years, scientists have speculated that the cataclysmic impact of an asteroid with the earth was responsible for
the demise of the dinosaurs approximately 65 million years ago Previous discoveries and results have hinted that an
asteroid two kilometers in diameter struck the Yucatan peninsula in Eastern Mexico This impact, stronger than one
thousand nuclear explosions, is speculated to have cast a cloud of dust and debris into the atmosphere, covering the
entire surface of the earth and blocking out the sun and consequently lowering the surface temperature of the earth With
such a radical change in the earth’s environment, scientists believe that over 99% of all animal and plant species were
eradicated Only after millions of years did plants and animals even begin to recover But, the reign of the dinosaurs had
ended and the age of mammals had begun
The crucial link that has held this theory together has been the element iridium Iridium is not commonly found on
either the surface of the earth or inside the crust It is more commonly found in asteroids or meteorites throughout the
solar system Scientists have hypothesized that after the asteroid impacted the earth, an even layer of iridium sediment settled over the globe and eventually became part of its surface The theory, of course, has depended on the discovery of such an existing layer of iridium
Unfortunately scientists have never been able to offer absolute proof that this asteroid impact ever occurred Recently, however, a discovery may go a long way toward validating these scientists’ theories In 1996, a team of marine biologists excavated samples of rock from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean just the coast of Bermuda Found thousands of meters below the sea, these samples contain iridium similar to those found in the Yucatan peninsula thousands of kilometers away At first, scientists were skeptical whether the samples were from the same time period But since carbon dating placed them to 65 million years ago, their doubts were quickly alleviated Since then many of the other theories for the demise of the dinosaur have been finally laid to rest

While many nineteenth-century reformers hoped to bring about reform through education or by eliminating specific social evils, some thinkers wanted to start over and remake society by founding ideal, cooperative communities The United States seemed to them a spacious and unencumbered country where models of a perfect society could succeed These communitarian thinkers hoped their success would lead to imitation, until communities free of crime, poverty, and other social ills would cover the land A number of religious groups, notably the Shakers, practiced communal living, but the main impetus to found model communities came from nonreligious, rationalistic thinkers
Among the communitarian philosophers, three of the most influential were Robert Owen, Charles Fourier and John Humphrey Noyes Owen, famous for his humanitarian policies as owner of several thriving textile mills in Scotland, believed that faulty environment was to blame for human problems and that these problems could be eliminated in a rationally planned society In 1825 he put his principles into practice at New Harmony, Indiana The community failed economically after a few years but not before achieving a number of social successes Fourier, a commercial employee in France, never visited the United States However, his theories of cooperative living influenced many Americans through the writings of
Albert Brisbane, whose Social Destiny of Man explained Fourier-ism and its self-sufficient associations or “phalanxes”
One or more of these phalanxes was organized in every Northern state The most famous were Red Bank, New Jersey, and Brook Farm, Massachusetts An early member of the latter was the author Nathaniel Hawthorne Noyes founded the most enduring and probably the oddest of the utopian communities, the Oneida Community of upstate New York Needless to say, none of these experiments had any lasting effects on the patterns of American society
Question 56: The main topic of the passage is _
A nineteenth-century schools
B model communities in the nineteenth century
C the philosophy of Fourierism
D American reformers
Question 57: Which of the following is NOT given in the passage as one of the general goals of communitarian
philosophers?
A To establish ideal communities
B To spread their ideas throughout the United States
C To create opportunities through education
D To remake society
Question 58: The Shakers are mentioned in line 6 as an example of _
C an influential group of writers D a communal religious group
Question 59: Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word impetus in line 7?
Question 60: The “phalanxes” described in the second paragraph were an idea originally conceived by _
Question 61: Why does the author mention Nathaniel Hawthorne in line 18?
A He was a critic of Charles Fourier
B He wrote a book that led to the establishment of model communities
C He founded Brook Farm in Massachu-setts
D He was at one time a member of the Brook Farm community
Question 62: Which of the following communities lasted longest?
