For a time, the Hubble telescope was the brunt of jokes and subject to the wrath of those who believed the U.S government had spent too much money on space projects that served no valid purpose The Hubble was sent into orbit with a satellite by the Space Shuttle Discovery in 1990 amid huge hype and expectation Yet after it was in position, it simply did not work, because the primary mirror was misshapen It was not until 1993 that the crew of the Shuttle Endeavor arrived like roadside mechanics, opened the hatch that was installed for the purpose, and replaced the defective mirror with a good one
(5)already forming The distant galaxies are speeding away from Earth, some traveling at the speed of light
Hubble has viewed exploding stars such as the Eta Carinae, which clearly displayed clouds of gas and dust billowing outward from its poles at 1.5 million miles an hour Prior to Hubble, it was visible from traditional telescopes on earth, but its details were not ascertainable But now, the evidence of the explosion is obvious The star still burns five million times brighter than the sun and illuminates clouds from the inside
Hubble has also provided a close look at black holes, which are described as cosmic drains Gas and dust swirl around the drain and are slowly sucked in by the incredible gravity It has also looked into an area that looked empty to the naked eye and, within a region the size of a grain of sand, located layer upon layer of galaxies, with each galaxy consisting of billions of stars
The Hubble telescope was named after Edwin Hubble, a 1920s astronomer who developed a formula that expresses the proportional relationship of distances between clusters of galaxies and the speeds at which they travel Astronomers use stars known as Cepheid variables to measure distances in space These stars dim and brighten from time to time, and they are photographed over time and charted All the discoveries made by Hubble have allowed astronomers to learn more about the formation of early galaxies
Question 31: The author states that the Hubble was not always popular because
A it was more expensive than most space shuttles
B many people believed space exploration was a waste of time C people were afraid of what might be found
D it was defective for its first three years in space
Question 32: The word burnt in the first sentence is closest in meaning to A expense B unhappiness C subject D contentment
Question 33: The author implies that at the time the Hubble was initially deployed from the Earth _
A there was little attention paid to it
(6)C there was considerable excitement about potential uses D all attention was focused on the space shuttle, not the Hubble
Question 34: The author implies that the satellite that carries the Hubble was specifically designed so that
A maintenance could be done by traveling astronauts B the Hubble could move easily
C the mirror could contract and expand
D the known defective mirror could be replaced in space rather than on Earth Question 35: The author compares the astronauts of the Endeavor to A astronomers B mechanics C politicians D scientists Question 36: The author states that Edward Hubble _
A developed the Hubble telescope
B developed a mathematical formula to measure speed and distances between galaxies C was the first person to use the Hubble telescope
D was a politician who sponsored funding in Congress
Question 37: According to the passage, a Cepheid variable is
A a mirror B a star
C a Hubble calculations D the dimming and brightening of a star Question 38: The word billowing in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to
A sitting B exploding C stopping D pouring

Starting with three camels in 1996, but more recently expanding the service to six camels, the Mobile Camel Library serves over one million people Twice a month, the camel library can be seen carrying books all around the Carissa region These hard-working animals need little water and can carry up to 500 pounds of books across the sands A librarian, a library assistant, a herdsman, and a lookout all travel with the camels The lookout helps protect the books from thieves
The children of Carissa love the camel library and appreciate Oluoch’s effort Eleven-year-old Mohamud Mohamed reads his library books carefully and always returns them on time He knows the Carissa library punishes people for losing books, just like any other library However, the punishment is very stiff compared to that of other libraries If a village loses a book, the camel library stops visiting
