Bacteria are extremely small living things While we measure our own sizes in inches or centimeters, bacterial size is measured in microns One micron is a thousandth of a millimeter a pinhead is about a millimeter across Rod shaped bacteria are usually from two to tour microns long,
while rounded ones are generally one micron in diameter Thus if you enlarged a founded bacterium a thousand times, it would be just about the size of a pinhead An adult human magnified by the same amount would be over a mile (1.6 kilometers) tall
Even with an ordinary microscope, you must look closely to see bacteria Using a magnification of 100 times, one finds that bacteria are barely visible as tiny rods or dots One cannot make out anything of their structure Using special stains, one can see that some bacteria have attached to them wavy - looking "hairs" called flagella Others have only one flagellum The flagella rotate, pushing the bacteria though the water Many bacteria lack flagella and cannot move about by their own power while others can glide along over surfaces by some little understood mechanism
From the bacterial point of view, the world is a very different place from what it is to humans To a bacterium water is as thick as molasses is to us Bacteria are so small that they are influenced by the movements of the chemical molecules around them Bacteria under the microscope, even those with no flagella, often bounce about in the water This is because they collide with the water molecules and are pushed this way and that Molecules move so rapidly that within a tenth of a second the molecules around a bacterium have all been replaced by new ones even bacteria without flagella are thus constantly exposed to a changing environment
Question 36: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A The characteristics of bacteria B How bacteria reproduce
(4)Question 37: Bacteria are measured in
A inches B centimeters C microns D millimeters
Question 38: Which of the following is the smallest?

A usual B distinctive C original C extraordinary
Question 40: According to the passage, someone who examines bacteria using only a microscope that magnifies 100 times would see
A tiny dots B small “hairs” C large rods D detailed structures Question 41: The relationship between a bacterium and its flagella is most nearly analogous to which of the following?
A A rider jumping on a horse's back B A ball being hit by a bat
C A boat powered by a motor D A door closed by a gust of wind
Question 42: The author compares water to molasses, in order to introduce which of the following topics? A.The bacterial content of different liquids
B.What happens when bacteria are added to molasses C.The molecular structures of different chemicals D.How difficult it is for bacteria to move through water
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 from 43 to 50.
Alexis de Tocqueville, the French political scientist, historian, philosopher and politician, is most famous for a four-volume book he wrote called “Democracy in America” He came to America in 1831 to study the American form of democracy and what it might mean to the rest of the world After a visit of only nine months, he wrote a remarkable book which is regarded as a classic De Tocqueville had unusual powers of observation He described not only the democratic system of government and how it operated, but also its effect on how Americans think, feel, and act Many scholars believe he had a deeper understanding of traditional American beliefs and values than anyone else who has written about the United States What is so remarkable is that many of these traits which he observed nearly 200 years ago, are still visible and meaningful today His observations are also important because the timing of his visit, the 1830s, was before America was industrialized This was the era of the small farmer, the small businessman, and the settling of the western frontier It was the period of history when the traditional values of the new country were newly established In just a generation, some 40 years since the adoption of the U.S Constitution, the new form of government had already produced a society of people with unique values He was, however, a neutral observer and saw both the good and bad sides of these qualities
