For wild animals, there is only one rule for survival: eat or be eaten To survive in this difficult world, many animals have developed interesting techniques Some animals make loud noises to scare off their enemies Others give off a strange and unpleasant smell The most common way for animals to avoid being seen is to use camouflage to blend in with their environment

Blending in with the environment allows animals to either hide from animals that would want to eat them or sneak up on animals they would like to eat without being seen Male birds are brightly colored in order to attract mates, but female and baby birds are usually a dull brown or grey This makes them difficult for their enemies to see When they stay very still, they blend in with the tree branches around them It's a very effective protection method

Interestingly, tigers use their coloration for a different reason The tiger's orange and black stripes blend in with tire grass and shadows of the jungle This allows them to creep close enough to their prey without being seen Once the tiger is within striking range, it can leap from die shadows and attack before its prey has rime to escape

Whether it's blending with the environment to eat or to avoid being eaten, camouflage is a great adaptation The next time you see an animal with interesting colors, ask yourself why the animal is colored the way it is It may serve more than making the animal look beautiful

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the questions from 35 to 42

As the twentieth century began, the importance of formal education in the United States increased The frontier had mostly disappeared and by 1910 most Americans lived in towns and cities Industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life combined with a new emphasis upon credentials and expertise to make schooling increasingly important for economic and social mobility Increasingly, too, schools were viewed as the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society

The arrival of a great wave of southern and eastern European immigrants at the turn of the century coincided with and contributed to an enormous expansion of formal schooling By 1920 schooling to age fourteen or beyond was compulsory in most states, and the school year was greatly lengthened Kindergartens, vacation schools, extracurricular activities, and vocational education and counseling extended the influence of public schools over the lives of students, many of whom in the larger industrial cities were the children of immigrants Classes for adult immigrants were sponsored by public schools, corporations, unions, churches, settlement houses, and other agencies

Reformers early in the twentieth century suggested that education programs should suit the needs of specific populations Immigrant women were once such population Schools tried to educate young women so they could occupy productive places in the urban industrial economy, and one place many educators considered appropriate for women was the home

and outside the home, in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States, however, overproduction rather than scarcity was becoming a problem Thus, the ideal American homemaker was viewed as a consumer rather than a producer Schools trained women to be consumer homemakers cooking, shopping, decorating, and caring for children "efficiently" in their own homes, or if economic necessity demanded, as employees in the homes of others Subsequent reforms have made these notions seem quite out-of-date
