animals were aquatic The very first vertebrates, or animals with backbones, of which we have any fossil record, lived in the water These vertebrates, the fish, were adapted to underwater living Their streamlined bodies were covered with scales to reduce surface friction: they had muscular tails so that they could swim swiftly in such a dense medium as water; and they were endowed with gills for breathing underwater Descendants of fish-type ancestors crossed the seashore barrier and accommodated themselves to life on land As amphibians, they possessed limbs instead of fins and lungs instead of gills But they never became completely free of the bonds that tied them to the water; even today many amphibians return to the water to lay their eggs Millions of years after the first clumsy amphibians crawled over the land, newer types of land dwellers appeared; these animals gave rise to the present-day reptiles and mammals They were more completely converted for land dwelling, with bodies and biological activities far different from those of fish With these special adaptations, mammals have been able to colonize the woods and meadows, the deserts and high mountains, often far

A doesn’t he B does he C don’t they D they 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 46 to 55 Because the low latitudes of the Earth, the areas near the equator, receive more heat than the latitudes near the poles, and because the nature of heat is to expand and move, heat is transported from the tropics to the middle and high latitudes Some of this heat is moved by winds and some by ocean currents, and some gets stored in the atmosphere in the form of latent heat The term “latent heat” refers to the energy that has to be used to convert liquid water to water vapor We know that if we warm a pan of water on a stove, it will evaporate, or turn into vapor, faster than if it is allowed to sit at room temperature We also know that if we hang wet clothes outside in the summertime, they will dry faster than in winter, when temperature are colder The energy used in both cases to change liquid water to water vapor is supplied by heat – supplied by the stove in the first case and by the Sun in the latter case This energy is not lost It is stored as vapor in the atmosphere as latent heat Eventually, the water stored as vapor in the atmosphere will condense to liquid again, and the energy will be released to the atmosphere In the atmosphere, a large portion of the Sun’s incoming energy is used to evaporate water, primarily in the tropical oceans Scientists have tried to quantify this proportion of the Sun’s energy By analyzing temperature, water vapor, and wind data around the globe, they have estimated the quantity to be about 90 watts per square meter, or nearly 30 percent of the Sun’s energy Once this latent heat is stored within the atmosphere, it can be transported, primarily to higher latitudes, by prevailing, large – scale winds Or it can be transported vertically to higher levels in the atmosphere, where it forms clouds and subsequent storms, which then release the energy back to the atmosphere Question 46: The passage mainly discusses how heat _ A is transformed and transported in the Earth’s atmosphere B is transported by ocean currents C can be measured and analyzed by scientists D moves about the Earth’s equator Question 47: The passage mentions that the tropics differ from the Earth’s polar regions in which of the following ways? A The height of cloud formation in the atmosphere B The amount of heat they receive from the Sun C The strength of their large scale winds D The strength of their oceanic currents Question 48: The word “convert” is closest in meaning to A mix B change C adapt D reduce Question 49: Why does the author mention “the stove” in line 9th ? A To describe the heat of the Sun B To illustrate how water vapor is stored C To show how energy is stored D To give an example of a heat source Question 50: According to the passage, most ocean water evaporation occurs especially _ A around the higher latitudes B in the tropics C because of large – scale winds D because of strong ocean currents Question 51: According to the passage, 30 percent of the Sun’s incoming energy _ A is stored in clouds in the lower latitudes B is transported by ocean currents C never leaves the upper atmosphere D gets stored as latent heat Question 52: The underlined word “it” refers to _ A square meter B the Sun’s energy C latent heat D the atmosphere Question 53: The word “primarily” is closest in meaning to A chiefly B originally C basically D clearly Question 54: The word “prevailing” is closest in meaning to _ A essential B dominant C circular D closest Question 55: All of the following words/ phrases are defined in the passage EXCEPT A low latitudes (line 1st) B latent heat (line 4th) C evaporate (line 6th) D atmosphere (line 10th) 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 56 to 65 Most people can remember a phone number for up to thirty seconds When this short amount of time elapses, however, the numbers are erased from the memory How did the information get there in the first place? Information that makes its way to the short term memory (STM) does so via the sensory storage area The brain has a filter which only allows stimuli that is of immediate interest to pass on to the STM, also known as the working memory There is much debate about the capacity and duration of the short term memory The most accepted theory comes from George A Miller, a cognitive psychologist who suggested that humans can remember approximately seven chunks of information A chunk is defined as a meaningful unit of information, such as a word or name rather than just a letter or number Modern theorists suggest that one can increase the capacity of the short term memory by chunking, or classifying similar information together By organizing information, one can optimize the STM, and improve the chances of a memory being passed on to long term storage When making a conscious effort to memorize something, such as information for an exam, many people engage in "rote rehearsal" By repeating something over and over again, one is able to keep a memory alive Unfortunately, this type of memory maintenance only succeeds if there are no interruptions As soon as a person stops rehearsing the information, it has the tendency to disappear When a pen and paper are not handy, people often attempt to remember a phone number by repeating it aloud If the doorbell rings or the dog barks to come in before a person has the opportunity to make a phone call, he will likely forget the number instantly Therefore, rote rehearsal is not an efficient way to pass information from the short term to long term memory A better way is to practice "elaborate rehearsal" This involves assigning semantic meaning to a piece of information so that it can be filed along with other pre-existing long term memories Encoding information semantically also makes it more retrievable Retrieving information can be done by recognition or recall Humans can easily recall memories that are stored in the long term memory and used often; however, if a memory seems to be forgotten, it may eventually be retrieved by prompting The more cues a person is given (such as pictures), the more likely a memory can be retrieved This is why multiple choice tests are often used for subjects that require a lot of memorization Question 56: According to the passage, how memories get transferred to the STM? A.They revert from the long term memory B.They are filtered from the sensory storage area C.They get chunked when they enter the brain D.They enter via the nervous system Question 57: The word “elapses” in paragraph is closest in meaning to: A passes B adds up C appears D continues Question 58: All of the following are mentioned as places in which memories are stored EXCEPT the: A STM B long term memory C sensory storage area D maintenance area Question 59: Why does the author mention a dog's bark? A To give an example of a type of memory B To provide a type of interruption C To prove that dogs have better memories than humans D To compare another sound that is loud like a doorbell Question 60: How theorists believe a person can remember more information in a short time?
