A Because people were unable to understand signals, signs, and symbols B Because people wanted to communicate across long distances C Because people wanted new forms of communication D Because people believed that signals and symbols were obsolete Question 59: It may be concluded from the passage that A only some cultures have signals and symbols B signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are forms of communication C symbols are very easy to define and interpret D waving and handshaking are not related to culture Read the following passage and the mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 60 to 64 Dinosaurs were reptiles that lived during a period of earth’s history called Mesozoic Era, which is known as the Age of Reptiles The first dinosaurs appeared more than 200 million years ago For many millions of years, they dominated the land with their huge size and strength Then about 65 million years ago, they died out rather suddenly, never to reemerge The word “dinosaur” comes from two Greek words meaning “terrible lizard” Dinosaurs were not lizards, but their appearance could be truly terrifying The biggest ones weighed more than ten times as much as a mature elephant and nearly equaled the size of most modern-day whales The famous kinds of dinosaurs, including the brontosaur and tyrannosaurus rex, reached 80 to 90 feet in length Not all dinosaurs were giants, however, some were actually no larger than a chicken Scientists still not know what caused dinosaurs to disappear One theory involves a change of the earth’s climate It is believed that temperatures dropped significantly towards the end of the Cretaceous Period Too large to hibernate and not having fur or feathers for protection, it is possible that the climate became too chilly for dinosaurs In contrast, other species having protection, such as the mammals and birds, were able to survive Question 60: What is the best title for this passage?

A It made them the largest creatures ever on earth B It varied quite greatly C It guaranteed their survival D It was rather uniform Question 64: Which of the following can be inferred about mammals and birds?
