Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop
Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating
effects No moist- skinned, water – loving animals can exist there Few large animals are found: the giants of the North America desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat Since desert country is open, it holds more swift – footed, running, and leaping creatures than the tangled forest Its population are largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth Yet they are not emaciated Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere in the world
The secret of their adjustment lies in a combination of behavior and physiology None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night The surface of the sun – baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees

C animals are noisy and aggressive D animals dig homes underground

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the question from 26 to35.
For many year, scientists have speculated that the cataclysmic impact of an asteroid with the earth was responsible for the demise of the dinosaurs approximately 65 million years ago Previous discoveries and results have hinted that an asteroid two kilometers in diameter struck the Yucatan peninsula in Eastern Mexico This impact, stronger than one thousand nuclear explosions, is speculated to have cast a cloud of dust and debris into the atmosphere, covering the entire surface of the earth and blocking out the sun and consequently lowering the surface temperature of the earth
With such a radical change in the earth’s environment, scientists believe that over 90% of all animal and plant species were eradicated Only after millions of years did plants and animals even begin to recover But, the reign of the dinosaurs had ended and the age of mammals had begun
The crucial link that has held this theory together has been the element iridium Iridium is not commonly found on either the surface of the earth or inside the crust. It is more commonly found in asteroids or meteorites throughout the solar system Scientists have hypothesized that after the asteroid impacted the earth, an even layer of iridium sediment settled over the global and eventually became part of its surface The theory, of course, has depended on the discovery of such an existing layer of iridium
Unfortunately, scientists have never been able to offer absolute proof that this asteroid impact ever occurred Recently, however, a discovery may go a long way toward validating these scientists’ theories In 1996, a team of marine biologists excavated samples of rock from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean just off the coast of Bermuda Found thousands of meters below the sea, these samples contain iridium similar to those found in the Yucatan peninsula thousands of kilometers away At first, scientists were skeptical whether the samples were from the same time period But sissnce carbon dating placed them to 65 million years ago, their doubts were quickly alleviated Since then, many of the other theories for the demise of the dinosaur have been finally laid to rest
