Ancient people made clay pottery because they needed it for their survival They used the pots they made for cooking, storing food, and carrying things from place to place Pottery was so important to early cultures that scientists now study it to learn more about ancient civilizations The more advanced the pottery in terms of decoration, materials, glazes and manufacture, the more advanced the culture itself
The artisan who makes pottery in North America today utilizes his or her skill and imagination to create items that are beautiful as well as functional, transforming something ordinary into something special and unique
The potter uses one of the Earth's most basic materials, clay Clay can be found almost everywhere Good pottery clay must be free from all small stones and other hard materials that would make the potting process difficult Most North American artisan-potters now purchase commercially processed clay, but some find the clay they need right in the earth, close to where they work
The most important tools potters use are their own hand; however, they also use wire loop tools, wooden modeling tools, plain wire, and sponges Plain wire is used to cut away the finished pot from its base on the potter's wheel
After a finished pot is dried of all its moisture in the open air, it is placed in a kiln and fired The first firing hardens the pottery, and it is then ready to be glazed and fired again For areas where they not want any glaze, such as the bottom of the pot, artisans paint on melted wax that will later burn off in the kiln They then pour on the liquid glaze and let it run over the clay surface, making any kind of decorative pattern that they want
45 It can be inferred from the passage that clay is processed commercially in order to ……… A make it easier to color B remove hard substances
C prevent the glaze from sticking D make it dry more evenly 46 What does the passage mainly discuss?

48 According to the passage, how most North American potters today get the clay they need?
A They buy it B They barter for it
C They did it from the earth D They make it
49 The word "basic" in line is closest in meaning to which of the following? A Dirty B Fundamental C Familiar D Versatile 50 The word "pattern" in line 15 is closest in meaning to which of the following?
A Color B Model C Puzzle D Design
51 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way that ancient people used pottery?

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 question s from 55 to 64
The Moon has been worshipped by primitive peoples and has inspired humans to create everything from lunar calendars to love sonnets, but what we really know about it? The most accepted theory about the origin of the Moon is that it was formed of the debris from a massive collision with the young Earth about 4.6 billion years ago A huge body, perhaps the size of Mars, struck the Earth, throwing out an immense amount of debris that coalesced and cooled in orbit around the Earth
The development of Earth is inextricably linked to the moon; the Moon's gravitational influence upon the Earth is the primary cause of ocean tides In fact, the Moon has more than twice the effect upon the tides than the Sun does The Moon makes one rotation and completes a revolution around the Earth every 27 days, hours, and 43 minutes This synchronous rotation is caused by an uneven distribution of mass in the Moon (essentially, it is heavier on one side than the other) and has allowed the Earth's gravity to keep one side of the Moon permanently facing Earth It is an average distance from Earth of 384,403 km
The Moon has no atmosphere; without an atmosphere, the Moon has nothing to protect it from meteorite impacts, and thus the surface of the Moon is covered with impact craters, both large and small The Moon also has no active tectonic or volcanic activity, so the erosive effects of atmospheric weathering, tectonic shifts, and volcanic upheavals that tend to erase and reform the Earth's surface features are not at work on the Moon In fact, even tiny surface features such as the footprint left by an astronaut in the lunar soil are likely to last for millions of years, unless obliterated by a chance meteorite strike The surface gravity of the Moon is about one-sixth that of the Earth's Therefore, a man weighing 82 kilograms on Earth would only weigh 14 kilograms on the Moon
The geographical features of the Earth most like that of the Moon are, in fact, places such as the Hawaiian volcanic craters and the huge meteor crater in Arizona The climate of the Moon is very unlike either Hawaii or Arizona, however; in fact the temperature on the Moon ranges between 123 degrees C to -233 degrees C
55 The word "uneven" is closest in meaning to _.
A equally distributed B orderly C heavier D not uniform 56 A person on the Moon would weigh less than on the Earth because _.
(5)B the surface gravity of the Moon is less C of the composition of lunar soil
D the Moon has no atmosphere
57 According to the passage, the Moon is _.
A protected by a dense atmosphere B composed of a few active volcanoes C older than the Earth D the primary cause of Earth's ocean tides 58 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A The Moon is not able to support human life.
B People living in Hawaii and Arizona would feel at home on the Moon. C If the Moon had no gravitational influence, the Earth would not have tides. D Mars could have been formed in a similar way to the Moon.
59 The word "erase" is closest in meaning to _.
A change B impact C obliterate D erupt
60 All of the following are true about the Moon EXCEPT _. A it has a wide range of temperatures
B it is unable to protect itself from meteorite attacks C it has less effect upon the tides than the Sun D it is heavier on one side than the other
61 The word "massive" is closest in meaning to _.
A impressive B dense C huge D unavoidable
62 The word "debris" is closest in meaning to _.
A rubbish B earth C satellites D moons
63 Why does the author mention "impact craters"?
A to show the result of the Moon not having an atmosphere. B to explain the corrosive effects of atmospheric weathering. C to explain why the Moon has no plant life because of meteorites.
D to show the result of the Moon not having active tectonic or volcanic activity. 64 What is the passage primarily about?
A the Moon's effect upon the Earth.
B a comparison of the Moon and the Earth. C the origin of the Moon.
D what we know about the Moon and its differences to Earth WRITING
