Every year about two million people visit Mount Rushmore, were the faces of four U.S

presidents were carved in granite by sculptor Gutzon Borglum and his son, the late Lincoln Borglum The creation of the Mount Rushmore monument Line took 14 years – from 1927 to

1941 – and nearly a million dollars There were times when money was difficult to come by and many people were jobless To move more than 400,000 tons of rock, Borglum hired laid-off workers from the closed-down mines in the Black Hills area He taught these men to dynamite,

drill, carve, and finish the granite as they were hanging in midair in his specially devised chairs, which had many safety features Borglum was proud of the fact that no workers were killed or

severely injured during the years of blasting and carving

During the carving, many changes in original design had to be made to keep the carved

heads free of large fissures that were uncovered However, not all the cracks could be avoided,

so Borglum concocted a mixture of granite dust, white lead, and linseed oil to fill them

Every winter, water from melting snows gets into the fissures and expands as it freezes, making the fissures bigger Consequently, every autumn maintenance work is done to refill the cracks The repairers swing out in space over a 500-foot drop and fix the monument with the same mixture that Borglum used to preserve this national monument for future generations

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

In the late 1960’s, many people in North America turned their attention to environmental problems and new steel-and-glass skyscrapers were widely criticized

Ecologists pointed out that a cluster of tall buildings in a city often overburdens public

transportation and parking lot capacities

Skyscrapers are also lavish consumers, and waster, of electric power In one recent

year, the addition of 17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City raised the peak daily demand for electricity by 120,-000 kilowatts-enough to supply the entire

city of Albany, New York, for a day

Glass-walled skyscrapers can be especially wasteful The heat loss (or gain) through a wall of half-inch plate glass is more than ten times that through a typical masonry wall filled

with insulation board To lessen the strain on heating and air-conditioning equipment,

builders of skyscrapers have begun to use double glazed panels of glass, and reflective glasses coated with silver or gold mirror films that reduce glare as well as heat gain However, mirror-walled skyscrapers raise the temperature of the surrounding air and affect neighboring buildings

Skyscrapers put a severe strain on a city’s sanitation facilities, too If fully occupied, the two World Trade Center towers in New York City would alone generate 2.25 million gallons

of raw sewage each year-as much as a city the size of Stamford, Connecticut, which has a population of more than 109,000

Skyscrapers also interfere with television reception, block bird flyways, and obstruct air traffic In Boston, in the late 1960’s some people even feared that shadows from skyscrapers

would kill the grass on Boston Common

Still, people continue to build skyscrapers for all the reasons that they have always built them – personal ambition, civic pride, and the desire of owners to have the largest possible amount of rentable space

Question 43: The main purpose of the passage is to _

A compare skyscrapers with other modern structures

B describe skyscrapers and their effects on the environment

C advocate the use of masonry in the construction of skyscrapers

D illustrate some architectural designs of skyscrapers

Question 44: According to the passage, the attitude of many people in North America towards

skyscrapers could be best described as _

A unemotional B skeptical C critical D bitter

Question 45: The word “overburden” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _

A overwhelm B overload C overachieve D overcome

Question 46: According to the passage, what is one disadvantage of skyscrapers that have

mirrored walls?

A The exterior surrounding air is heated B The windows must be cleaned daily

C Construction time is increased D Extra air-conditioning equipment is needed Question 47: According to the passage, in the late 1960’s some residents of Boston were

concerned with which aspect of skyscrapers?

A The noise from their construction B The removal of trees from building sites

C The harmful effects on the city’s grass D The high cost of rentable office space

Question 48: The author raises issues that would most concern which of the following groups?

A Electricians B Environmentalists C Aviators D Teachers

Question 49: In which paragraph does the author compare the energy consumption of

skyscrapers with that of a city?

A paragraph 2 B paragraph 3 C paragraph 4 D paragraph 5

Question 50: According to the passage, all of the following are mentioned as reasons for

building skyscrapers EXCEPT

A people’s strong desire to build high

B people’s pride for their towns or cities

C the greed of the owners to have more place for lease

D the need to accommodate more people
