We tend to forget that all of our present-day pets, livestock, and food plants were taken from the wild and developed into the forms we know today

As centuries passed and human cultures evolved and blossomed, humans began to organize their

knowledge of nature into the broad field of natural history One aspect of early natural history concerned the use of plants for drugs and medicine The early herbalists sometimes overworked their imaginations

in this respect For example, it was widely believed that a plant or part of a plant that resembles an internal organ would cure ailments of that organ, Thus, an extract made from a heart-shaped leaf might be

prescribed for a person suffering from heart problems

Nevertheless, the overall contributions of these early observers provided the rudiments of our present knowledge of drugs and their uses

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 following questions

Although most universities in the United States are on semester system, which offers classes in the fall and spring, some schools observe a quarter system comprised of fall, winter, spring and summer quarter The academic year, September to June, is divided into three quarters of eleven weeks each, beginning in September, January, and March; the summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of varying length

There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system On the plus side, students who wish to complete three degrees in less than the customary four years may take advantage of the opportunity to study year round by enrolling in all four quarters In addition, although most students begin their programs in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any of the other quarters Finally, since the physical facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used efficiently to serve the greatest number of students But there are several disadvantages as well Many faculty complain that the

eleven-week term is simply not long enough for them to cover the material required by most college

courses Students also find it difficult to complete the assignments in such a short period of time

In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester system, some

colleges and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system In fourteen weeks, faculty and

students have more time to cover material and finish course requirements, but the additional term provides more options for admission during the year and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate early

Question 43 How many terms are there in a quarter system?

A 1 regular term and four summer term B 3 regular terms and one summer term.

C 2 regular terms and two summer term D 4 regular terms and one summer term.

Question 44 A semester system .

A not very popular in the United States B has eleven-week sessions

C has two major sessions a year D gives students the chance study year round.

Question 45 The word “them" in paragraph 2 refers to .

Question 46 The word “instituted" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .

Question 47 When may students begin studying in a school that uses a quarter term?

A At the beginning of any quarter B Summer semester only.

Question 48 Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A Universities in the United States B The Academic Year

Question 49 When is the academic year?

Question 50 Which of the following characteristics does NOT apply to trimester?
