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.

Human memory, formerly believed to be rather inefficient, is really much more sophisticated than that of a computer Researchers approaching the problem from a variety of points of view have all

concluded that there is a great deal more stored in our minds than has been generally supposed Dr Wilder Penfield, a Canadian neurosurgeon, proved that by stimulating their brains electrically, he could elicit the total recall of complex events in his subjects’ lives Even dreams and other minor events supposedly forgotten for many years suddenly emerged in detail

The memory trace is the term for whatever is the internal representation of the specific information about the event stored in the memory Assumed to have been made by structural changes in the brain, the memory trace is not subject to direct observation but is rather a theoretical construct that we use to speculate about how information presented at a particular time can cause performance at a later time Most theories include the strength of the memory trace as a variable in the degree of learning, retention, and retrieval possible for a memory One theory is that the fantastic capacity for storage in the brain is the result of an almost unlimited combination of interconnections between brain cells, stimulated by patterns of activity Repeated references to the same information support recall Or, to say that another way, improved performance is the result of strengthening the chemical bonds in the memory

Psychologists generally divide memory into at least two types, short-term and long-term memory, which combine to form working memory Short-term memory contains what we are actively focusing

on at any particular time, but items are not retained longer than twenty or thirty seconds without verbal rehearsal We use short-term memory when we look up a telephone number and repeat it to ourselves until we can place the call On the other hand, long-term memory can store facts, concepts, and experiences after we stop thinking about them All conscious processing of information, as for example, problem solving, involves both short-term and long-term memory As we repeat, rehearse, and recycle information, the memory trace is strengthened, allowing that information to move from short-term memory to long-term memory

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.

Ensuring the reliability and purity of the water supply is one of the more significant challenges facing an ever growing world population Unfortunately, only about 3% of the world’s total water supply is fresh; the rest is sea water and is unusable for most of our purposes Furthermore, of that 3%, three fourths are largely inaccessible because it exists as frozen ice locked in the polar ice caps or as glaciers high in mountains The remaining percentage of fresh water that is available for human use exists in two forms: surface water and ground water

Surface water is found in rivers, lakes, and man-made reservoirs fed by either rainfall or snowmelt Surface water makes up nearly 80% of all the water utilized by humans, primarily due to its

Trang 6/8 - Mã đề thi 405

accessibility Nearly every river or lake in the world contains one or more pumping stations to divert a portion of its flow to nearby population centres However, surface water supplies present several disadvantages First, surface water is easily polluted Chemical pollution from the air enters surface water in the form of rain, and ground pollution is either dumped directly into lakes and rivers or washed into them by rainwater In addition, biological pollution, caused by the dumping of raw sewage into a water source, can lead to dangerous levels of bacteria A vast percentage of rivers and lakes have become so chemically and biologically polluted that the use of their water in untreated form is classified

as hazardous to humans Another problem in relying on surface water is that its supply is highly variable Water levels in lakes and rivers can fall drastically in periods of severe drought In places that

are prone to extended dry periods, such as Australia or much of California, some rivers are even known

to occasionally run dry due to a combination of drought and overuse

The other primary source of fresh water is ground water Although ground water is estimated to be

as much as 50 times more abundant than surface water, it constitutes only 20% of all the fresh water

used by humans, and much of this usage occurs in rural areas This is a reflection of the relative difficulty in obtaining ground water Ground water exists in underground deposits known as aquifers, layers of porous rock in the Earth As rainwater sinks into the ground it eventually reaches the aquifer where it is absorbed, much as a kitchen sponge absorbs water

To obtain ground water, a well must be drilled down to the level of the aquifer, and then the water must be pumped to the surface Aquifers occur at different depths in different areas, and the deeper the aquifer, the more difficult and more expensive it is to extract its water Furthermore, if water is taken from an aquifer at a higher rate than it is recharged naturally, its level will drop, necessitating ever deeper wells This also creates problems with ground stability As water is drained out of an aquifer, the ground naturally tends to sink and compress, leading to greater risk of subsidence and landslides Since aquifers are fed through a slow acting system of drainage, they have much slower recharge rates than surface water resources and are easily overtaxed Therefore, ground water is generally only used when surface water is unavailable, even though ground water is far more abundant

Like surface water, ground water can also become polluted, although not as easily The soil that water sinks through before reaching the aquifer acts as a natural filter, leaching out some of the pollutants Furthermore, the lack of oxygen in the aquifer generally restricts the growth of bacteria, so most ground water can be utilized safely without treatment However, pollution can enter an aquifer when pollution sources are buried underground, such as they are in landfills In other areas, the presence

of heavy metals, nearly all of which are highly toxic in the human body, may render ground water undrinkable

Question 71: What is the source of most surface water?

A Melting glaciers B Underground

C Precipitation D Filtration of sea water

Question 72: The word prone in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to

A inclined B experienced C recognized D associated

Question 73: According to paragraph 1, all of the following are true of fresh water EXCEPT:

A It makes up a minute proportion of the world’s total water supply

B Much of it is unavailable for human use

C Its supply is endangered by the melting of the ice caps

D Its reliable supply is a growing problem in the world

Question 74: Based on the information in paragraph 2, what can be inferred about most population centers?

A They have grown to sizes unsustainable by current water resources

B They generally can be found in close proximity to a source of surface water

C They always contribute to greater levels of pollution in surface water

D They are unable to cope with rising levels of bacteria in surface water.

Question 75: According to paragraph 2, what causes increases in bacteria levels in surface water?

A The dumping of human and animal waste

B Drops in the overall level of a surface water source

C Overexploitation of a surface water source

D Increased industrial pollution

Question 76: In paragraph 3, the author mentions the abundance of ground water in order to

A explain the lack of surface water in many areas

B suggest that it may offer a solution to the world’s water needs

C contract with its relatively low usage by humans

D explain why it is only used in rural areas

Question 77: According to paragraph 4, increased danger of subsidence is caused by

A the holes created by large numbers of wells B landslides beneath an aquifer

C the compression of water in an aquifer D excessive drops in the level of an aquifer

Question 78: Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 5 about heavy metals?

A They are generally water soluble B They only occur in aquifers

C They cannot be filtered out of water D They can be detected by their foul taste

Question 79: The word it in paragraph 3 refers to

A rainwater B fresh water C surface water D ground water

Question 80: According to paragraph 5, bacteria are generally not a concern in ground water because

A heavy metals prevent their growth B there is not enough air to support them

C they are filtered out before they reach the aquifer D bacteria would make the water undrinkable
