Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question. (5 points)Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the need of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kms of the sea coast. In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man’s needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. A lot of valuable minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined. Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people. Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy. Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2050s the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.1.

The word Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably means ___________.A. European people.C. Asian people.B. African people.D. American people.5. We can conclude from the passage that ___________.A. the sea resources have largely been used up.B. the sea, in a broad sense, hasn’t yet been developed.C. the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the sea have already been solved.D. by the year 2050, the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources.II.

One of the most important discoveries of the nineteenth century was a method of using natural gas for cooking and heating Large amounts of natural gas found in the United States, usually several thousand feet below the surface of the earth

For many years after natural gas first discovered, it was thought to have no value Finally,

however, people began to understand its uses and to find ways of storing it and of moving it from place to place

Today natural gas is stored in large tanks and used for lighting, cooking, and heating In many ways, natural gas is one of our finest fuels It is cheap and can be used for cooking without

making the room hot It can be moved easily from one place to another through long pipelines, some of which are hundreds of miles in length

In a short time, the snow started to melt Day after day, we watched furious clouds pile up highover the hills to the west Sinister grey clouds extended over the valleys (3) _ We hadseen enough of the sky; now we began to watch the river, which every day was becoming fullerand wilder

The snow was gradually washed away as more and more rain streamed from the clouds, but high

up in the hills the reservoir was filling and was fast approaching danger level And then ithappened – for the 1st time in years the reservoir overflowed (4) _

The river seemed maddened as the waters poured almost horizontally down to its lower stretches.Just a couple of meters from our cottage, the stream seemed wild beneath the bridge (5) _ For three days we prayed that it would stay below its wall Fortunately, our prayers

were answered as the dam held and the waters began to subside Thanks to this protection, we canfeel our home in the valley is still secure and safe.
