Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions from 46 to 55. In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe, recycling is big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle". The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging: usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy high-quality products. When low quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way, if a customer chooses a product
9. with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop. The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles. The third step is being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources. Question 46: What is the main topic of the passage? A. how to reduce garbage disposal B. what people often understand about the term 'recycle' C. what is involved in the recycling movement D. how to live sensitively to the environment. Question 47: Which is described as one of the most industrialized areas? A. Europe B. Asia C. Middle East D. South America Question 48: What does the word 'sensitive' in the phrase 'sensitive to the environment' mean? A. cautious B. logical C. friendly D. responding Question 49: People can do the following to reduce waste EXCEPT ___. A. buy high-quality product B. buy simply-wrapped things C. reuse cups D. buy fewer hamburgers Question 50: Why is it a waste and customers buy low-quality products?
10. A. Because people will soon throw them away. B. Because they have to be repaired many times. C. Because customers change their ideas all the time. D. Because they produce less energy. Question 51: What does it mean 'Customers can vote with their wallets'? A. they can choose the cheapest products B. they can cast a lot to praise a producer. C. they can ask people to choose products with less packaging D. they can tell the producers which products are good for environment by buying them. Question 52: The word 'motto' is closest in meaning to___. A. meaning B. value C. belief D. reference Question 53: What best describes the process of reuse? A. The bottles are collected, washed, returned and filled again. B. The bottles are filled again after being returned, collected and washed. C. The bottles are washed, retuned, filled again and collected. D. The bottles are collected, returned filled again and washed. Question 54: The garbage dumps in some areas have relatively little glass and plastic because___. A. people are ordered to return bottles. B. returned bottles are few. C. not many bottles are made of glass or plastic. D. each returned bottle is paid. Question 55: The word 'practice' is closest in meaning to___. A. drill B. exercise C. deed D. belief VII. 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. A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake, one of the world's largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The
11. lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth's core. The thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface. The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area. Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake. The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in more exposed areas. The downside of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this. Question 56: The word "hidden" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to___. A. undrinkable B. untouched C. unexploitable D. undiscovered Question 57: What is true of Lake Vostok? A. It is completely frozen. B. It is a saltwater lake. C. It is beneath a thick slab of ice. D. It is heated by the sun. Question Question 58: Which of the following is closest in meaning to "frigid" in paragraph 1? A. Extremely cold B. Easily broken C. Quite harsh D. Lukewarm Question 59: All of the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that it___. A. was conducted by air B. made use of radio waves
12. C. could not determine the lake's exact size D. was controlled by a satellite Question 60: It can be inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if___. A. there were no lake underneath B. the lake were not so big C. Antarctica were not so cold D. radio waves were not used Question 61: The word "microbes" in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by which of the following? A. Pieces of dust B. Tiny bubbles C. Tiny organisms D. Rays of light Question 62: Lake Vostok is potentially important to scientists because it ___. A. can be studied using radio waves B. may contain uncontaminated microbes C. may have elevated levels of ultraviolet light D. has already been contaminated Question 63: The word "downside" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to___. A. bottom level B. negative aspect C. underside D. buried section Question 64: The last paragraph suggests that scientists should be aware of___. A. further discoveries on the surface of Antarctica B. problems with satellite-borne radar equipment C. ways to study Lake Vostok without contaminating it D. the harsh climate of Antarctica Question 65: The purpose of the passage is to ___. A. explain how Lake Vostok was discovered B. provide satellite data concerning Antarctica C. discuss future plans for Lake Vostok D. present an unexpected aspect of Antarctica's geography
