Animals have an intuitive awareness of quantities They know without analysis the difference between a number of objects and a smaller number In his book “ The natural History of Selboure ” (1786 ) , the naturalist Gilbert White tells how he surreptitiously removed one egg a day from a plover’s nest , and how the mother laid another egg each day to make up for the missing one He noted that other species of birds ignore the absence of a single egg but abandon their nests if more than one egg has been removed It has also been noted by naturalists that a certain type of wasp always provides five – never four, never six - caterpillars for each of their eggs so that their young have something to eat when the eggs hatch Research has also shown that both mice and pigeons can be taught to distinguish between odd and even numbers of food pieces
These and similar accounts have led some people to infer that creatures other than humans can actually count They also point to dogs that have been taught to respond to numerical questions with the correct number of barks, or to horses that seem to solve arithmetic problems by stomping their hooves the proper number of times
Animals respond to quantities only when they are connected to survival as a species – as in the case of the eggs – or survival as individuals - as in the case of food There is no transfer to other situations or from concrete reality to the abstract notion of numbers Animals can “count” only when the objects are present and only when the numbers involved are small – not more than seven or eight In lab experiments, animals trained to “count” one kind of object were unable to count any other type The objects, not the numbers, are what interest them Animals admittedly remarkable achievements simply not amount to evidence of counting, nor they reveal more than innate instincts, refined by the genes of successive generations, or the results of clever, careful conditioning by trainers
Question 36: What is the main idea of this passage?
A Careful training is required to teach animals to perform tricks involving numbers B Animals cannot “count” more than one kind of object
C Of all animals, dogs and horses can count best D Although animals may be aware of quantities, they cannot actually count. Question 37: Why does the author refer to Gilbert White’s book in line 2?
A To show how attitudes have changed since1786 B To contradict the idea that animals can count. C To provide evidence that some birds are aware of quantities D To indicate that more research is needed in this field. Question 38: The word “surreptitiously” is closest in meaning to
A quickly B secretly C occasionally D stubbornly
Question 39: The word “odd” refers to which of the following?
A unusual numbers B numbers such as 1, 3, and so on C lucky numbers D numbers such as 2, 4, and so on Question 40: The author mentions that all of the following are aware of quantities in some ways EXCEPT
A Plovers B mice C caterpillars D wasps Question 41: The word “accounts” is closest in meaning to
A invoices B reasons C reports D deceptions
Question 42: According to information in the passage, which of the following is LEAST likely to occur as a result of animals’ intuitive awareness of quantities?
A A pigeon is more attracted by a box containing two pieces of food than by a box containing one piece. B When asked by its trainer how old it is, a monkey holds up five fingers.
C When one of its four kittens crawls away, a mother cat misses it and searches for the kitten
D A lion follows one antelope instead of the herd of antelopes because it is easier to hunt a single prey.
Question 43: How would the author probably characterize the people who are mentioned in the first line of the second paragraph
A As mistaken B As demanding C As clever D As foolish
Question 44: The word “ they ”refer to
(3)Question 45: Where in the passage does the author mention research that supports his own view of animals’ inability to count.
A “In his book ……… the missing one.” B “Research has shown that ……… food pieces.” C “These and similar accounts ……….count ” D “In lab experiments……….other type” Mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the word that differs from the rest in the position of the main stress Question 46: A information B considerate C explanation D preparation
Question 47: A essential B different C important D negation
Question 48: A ensure B picture C capture D pleasure
Question 49: A elaborately B mysteriously C necessarily D originally Question 50: A documentary B occupation C competitive D individual Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D :
Lighthouses are towers with strong lights that help mariners plot their position, inform them that land is near, and warn them of dangerous rocks and reefs They are placed at prominent points on the coast and on islands, reefs, and sandbars
Every lighthouse has a distinctive pattern of light known as its characteristic There are five basic characteristics: fixed , flashing , occulting , group flashing , and group occulting A fixed signal is a steady beam A flashing signal has periods of darkness longer than periods of light , while an occulting signal’s periods of light are longer A group- flashing light gives off two or more flashes at regular intervals, and a group – occulting signal consists of a fixed light with two or more periods of darkness at regular intervals Some lighthouses use lights of different colours as well, and today , most lighthouses are also equipped with radio beacons The three types of apparatus used to produce the signals are the catoptric , in which metal is used to reflect the light ; the dioptric , in which glass is used ; and the catadioptric , in which both glass and metal are used
In the daytime, lighthouses can usually be identified by their structure alone The most typical structure is a tower tapering at the top, but some , such as the Bastion Lighthouse on the Saint Lawrence River , are shaped like pyramids , and others , such as the Race Rock light , look like wooden houses sitting on high platforms Still others, such as The American Shoal lighthouse off the Florida Coast, are skeletal towers of steel Where lighthouses might be confused in daylight, they can be distinguished by day- marker patterns – designed of checks and stripes painted in vivid colors on lighthouse walls

A period of darkness B person who operates a lighthouse C pattern painted on a lighthouse D distinctive light signal Question 54: According to the passage, what kind of signal has long periods of light that are regularly broken by two or more periods of darkness?
A Group occulting B Flashing C occulting D Group flashing
Question 55: According to the passage, a catoptric apparatus is one that uses

C A lighthouse with day-marker patterns D A lighthouse that resembles a house on a platform Question 57: The word “tapering” is closest in meaning to which of the following ?
A Narrowing B Soaring C Opening D Rotating

A the weather is frequently bad B the structure themselves cannot be easily seen by passing mariners C there are not many lighthouses D there are a number of lighthouses with similar structures
Question 59: The author implies that, compared to those of the past, contemporary lighthouses
