Questions 31-34 Listen to a conversation between a student and a professor.

M: Doctor Cole, thank you for agreeing to this interview for the Daily Campus News Can you tell us

about what you and your colleagues discuss at the annual astronomy society meeting last month?

W: Yes For the first time ever the scientific community has established the existence of planets

outside our own solar system Of course we knew that certain distant stars existed, but only recently did we learn that several of them are orbited by their own planets

M: Why did it take so long to locate these planets?

W: Well, you have to understand that they are a billion times dimmer than their parent stars It

would be like trying to see the light of a candle next to a huge explosion We don't currently have a telescope that can be used to see them

M: But if the astronomers didn't see the planets through a telescope, how did they find them?

W: By a very indirect method The astronomers measured subtle distortions in the frequency of the

light from the parent stars and observed that some of the stars seem to rock back and forth They determined that this was caused by gravitational pull from orbiting planets

M: There is a powerful new telescope being built in Arizona Will that help them see these planets? W: They should be able to see them at least in the form of small spots of light And then the scientist

will be able to break down and analyze this light By doing this, they hope to learn about the

chemical composition of these planets – oxygen and ozone molecules, for example, would be telltale signs of life on these planets

M: I'm looking forward to hearing more when the telescope is in operation And I'm sure our

readers would be interested too

Questions 43-47 Listen to a talk by a marine biologist in an aquarium.

Welcome to our aquarium As we begin our tour, the first animal we'll see today is the starfish You probably have seen pictures of the starfish, but in a few minutes you'll see some live ones and learn

a little about their structure and life cycle First of all, starfish are not really fish, they belong to the family of echinoderms which are spiny skinned sea animal, that is, their skin is covered with thorny bumps Most starfish have five arm-like extensions on their bodies And so they look like a

five-pointed star But some other kinds have as many as 40 or more arms Starfish, like other members of the echinoderm family, have what's called radial symmetry All that means is that the body parts of these animals are arranged around the center, kind of like spokes of a wheel around a hub One of the special features of the starfish is that it can drop off arms as a defensive reaction, to get away from an attacker, for example They can then grow new arms to replace the old ones Starfish reproduce by releasing eggs into the sea These eggs develop into larvae, and can swim

freely These early forms, which are what larvae are, differ from adult starfish, because the larvae have bilateral symmetry That means that the two halves of the larvae look exactly the same, which makes them look a lot different from the later form of the starfish Eventually the larvae sink to the ocean bottom and change into the adult radial form If you don't have questions, we'll go in now and see some of the creatures in person

Questions 48-50 Listen to part of a talk in the United States history class The professor is

discussing the Civil War

Last time we outlined how the Civil War finally got started I want to talk today about the political management of the war on both sides, the north under Abraham Lincoln and the south under Jefferson Davis An important task for both of these presidents was to justify for their citizens just why the war was necessary In 1861, on July 4th, Lincoln gave his first major speech, in which he presented the northern reasons for the war It was, he said, to preserve democracy Lincoln

suggested that this war was a noble crusade that would determine the future of democracy
