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 51 to 60
The goal of Internet-based encyclopedia Wikipedia (www.wikipedia.org) is to give everyone on the planet access to information Like other encyclopedias, Wikipedia contains lots of information: more than 2.5 million articles in 200 different languages covering just
about every subject Unlike other encyclopedias, however, Wikepedia is not written by experts, but by ordinary people These writers
are not paid and their names are not published They contribute to Wikipedia simply because they want to share their knowledge
Encyclopedias began in ancient times as collections of writings about all aspects of human knowledge The word itself comes
from ancient Greek, and means “a complete general education” Real popularity for encyclopedias came in the nineteenth century in Europe and the United States, with the publication of encyclopedias written for ordinary readers With the invention of the CD-ROM, the same amount of information could be put on a few computer discs Then with the Internet, it became possible to create an online encyclopedia that could be constantly updated, like Microsoft’s Encarta However, even Internet-based encyclopedias like Encarta were
written by paid experts At first, Wikipedia, the brainchild of Jimmy Wales, a businessman in Chicago, was not so different from these
In 2001, he had the idea for an Internet-based encyclopedia that would provide information quickly and easily to everyone Furthermore, that information would be available free, unlike other Internet encyclopedias at that time
But Wales, like everyone else, believed that people with special knowledge were needed to write the articles, and so he began by
hiring experts He soon changed his approach, however, as it took them a long time to finish their work He decided to open up the
encyclopedia in a radical new way, so that everyone would have access not only to the information, but also to the process of putting this information online To do this, he used what is known as “Wiki” software (from the Hawaiian word for “fast”), which allows users to create or alter content on web page The system is very simple: When you open the web site, you can simply search for information or you can log on to become a writer or editor of articles If you find an article that interests you – about your hometown, for example – you can correct it or expand it This process goes on until no one is interested in making any more changes

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 61 to 70
Ocean water plays an indispensable role in supporting life The great ocean basins hold about 300 million cubic miles of water From this vast amount, about 80,000 cubic miles of water are sucked into the atmosphere each year by evaporation and returned by
precipitation and drainage to the ocean More than 24,000 cubic miles of rain descend annually upon the continents This vast amount is required to replenish the lakes and streams, springs and water tables on which all flora and fauna are dependent Thus, the hydrosphere
permits organic existence
The hydrosphere has strange characteristics because water has properties unlike those of any other liquid One anomaly is that water upon freezing expands by about 9 percent, whereas most liquids contract on cooling For this reason, ice floats on water bodies instead of sinking to the bottom If the ice sank, the hydrosphere would soon be frozen solidly, except for a thin layer of surface melt water during the summer season Thus, all aquatic life would be destroyed and the interchange of warm and cold currents, which moderates climate, would be notably absent
Another outstanding charateristic of water is that water has a heat capacity which is the highest of all liquids and solids except
ammonia This characterisitc enables the oceans to absorb and store vast quantities of heat, thereby often preventing climatic extremes
