A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge fresh water lake, one of the world's

largest and deepest, lies hidden there, under four kilometers of ice Now known as Lake Vostok This huge body

of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth's core The thick glacier

above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface

The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake: the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake

The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific

community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon

thousands of years unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected

organisms in more exposed areas The downside of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting,

research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this

Question 46: The word “hidden” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to…………

A undrinkable B untouched C unexploitable D undiscovered Question 47: What is true of Lake Vostok'?

A It is completely frozen B It is a saltwater lake C It is beneath a thick slab of ice D It is heated by the sun Question 48: Which of the following is closest in meaning to "frigid" in paragraph 1?

A Extremely cold B Easily broken C Quite harsh D Lukewarm Question 49: All ol the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that it …… A was conducted by air B made use of radio waves

C could not determine the lake's exact size D was controlled by a satellite Question 50: It can he inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if……… A there were no lake underneath B the lake were not so big C Antarctica were not so cold D radio waves were not used

Question 51: The word “microbes" in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by which of the following? A Pieces of dust B Tiny bubbles C Tiny organisms D Rays of light Question 52: Lake Vostok is potentially important to scientists because it………

Question 55: The purpose of the passage is to………

A explain how Lake Vostok was discovered B provide satellite data concerning Antarctica C discuss future plans for Lake Vostok D present an unexpected aspect of geography

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 56 to 65

Psychologists have debated a long time about whether a child's upbringing can give it the ability to do outstandingly well Some think that it is impossible to develop genius and say that it is simply something a person

is born with Others, however, argue that the potential for great achievement can be developed The truth lies

somewhere between these two extremes

It seems very obvious that being born with the right qualities from gifted parents will increase a child's ability to do well However, this ability will be fully realized only with the right upbringing and opportunities As one psychologist says, "To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel."

Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins that were separated shortly after birth and brought up by different parents They found that achievement was based on intelligence, and later influenced by the child's environment

One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted One of' the twins received a normal upbringing, and performed well The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive parents and given every possible opportunity to develop its abilities That twin, though starting out with the Same degree of intelligence as the other,

performed even better This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability The more favorable the

environment, the more a child's intelligence and ability are developed However, there is no link between intelligence and the socio-economic level of a child's family In other words, it does not matter how poor or how rich a family is, as this does not affect intelligence

Gifted people cannot be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them One professor of music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary performers, often because their parents had recognized their ability These musicians then needed at least ten years' hard work and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining

People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice: ● Marry an intelligent person

●Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents ●Start a child's education early but avoid pushing the child too hard

●Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instruments is essential for a child who wants to become an outstanding musician

Question 56: The upbringing of highly intelligent children requires………

A an expensive education B good musical instruments C parental support and encouragement D wealthy and loving parents Question 57: The word "others" used in the first paragraph refers to………

A "other people" B "other scientists" C "other children" D "other geniuses" Question 58: When scientists studied intelligence and ability found that………

Question 59: Scientists chose twins for their study because……… A each twin has the same environment as his/her twin

B they are born into the same family, hence the same upbringing

C they have the same economic background and hence the same opportunities D they have the same genetic background, usually with similar intelligence

Question 60: Flow were great musicians different from ordinary musicians in their development'? A Their ability was realized at an early stage and then nurtured

B They practice playing their instruments for many years C They concentrated on music to the exclusion of other areas D They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic

Question 61: The writer advises that gifted children should be allowed to follow……… A their own interest

B their parents' interests

C only their interests in musical instruments D only their interests in computer games

Question 62: When encouraging their gifted children, parents should avoid ……… A pushing their children too hard

B letting them play their own way

C permitting them to follow their own interests D starting their education at an early age

Question 63: The remark: "To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel" in the passage means that

in order to become a genius………

A you need to have good health and good nourishment B you need intelligence and you need to develop it C you should try to move quickly and efficiently

D you must nourish your brain and train your muscles hard

Question 64: The word "favorable" in the passage mostly means……… A "good for someone and making him/her likely to be successful" B "helping somebody to be more intelligent compared to other people" C "of high quality or an acceptable standard"

D "under the control or in the power of somebody else"

Question 65: All of the following statements are true EXCEPT……… A educational development depends completely on economic well-being B a child's intelligence is influenced by that of his/her parents

C to become successful, a child needs both native intelligence and development D studying different twins is a useful scientific procedure

Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to show the underlined part that needs correction
