Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of

communicating without using speech Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in every known

culture The basic function of signal is to impinge upon the environment in such a way that it attracts

attention, as For example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit Coded to refer to speech, the

potential for communication is very great Less adaptable to the codification of words, signs also contain

meaning in and of themselves A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently

Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their intricate relationship

with the receiver’s cultural perceptions In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers

with an auditory symbol of approval Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain

cultural messages

Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage

They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver As

a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods are based

upon speech Radio, television, and the telephone are only a few

Question 50: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A Gestures B Signs and signals C Speech D Communication

Question 51: What does the author say about speech?

A It is dependent upon the advances made by inventors

B It is the most advanced form of communication

C It is necessary for communication to occur

D It is the only true form of communication

Question 52: According to the passage, what is a signal?

A A form of communication that interrupts the environment

B The most difficult form of communication to describe

C A form of communication which may be used across long distances

D The form of communication most related to cultural perception

Question 53: The phrase “ impinge upon” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _

A prohibit B intrude C vary D improve

Question 54: The word “it” in paragraph refers to _

Question 55: The word “ potential” in paragraph 1 could be replaced by

Question 56: The word ―intricate‖ in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by

A inefficient B complicated C historical D uncertain

Question 57: Applauding was cited as an example of

Question 58: Why were the telephone, radio, and television invented?

A Because people were unable to understand signs, signals, and symbols

B Because people wanted to communicate across long distances

C Because people believed that signs, signals, and symbols were obsolete

D Because people wanted new forms of communication

Question 59: It may be concluded from this passage that _

A only some cultures have signs, signals, and symbols

B signs, signals, symbols, and gestures are forms of communication

C symbols are very easy to define and interrupt

D waving and handshaking are not related to culture

Dinosaurs were reptiles that lived during a period of earth’s history called the Mesozoic Era,

which is known as the Age of Reptiles The first dinosaurs appeared more than 200 million years ago For

many millions of years, they dominated the land with their huge size and strength Then about 65 million

years ago, they died out rather suddenly, never to reemerge

The word dinosaur comes from two Greek words meaning ―terrible lizard‖ Dinosaurs were not

lizards, but their appearance could be truly terrifying The biggest ones weighed more than ten times as

much as a mature elephant and nearly equaled the size of most modern—day whales The famous kinds

of dinosaurs, including the brontosaur and tyrannosaurus rex, reached 80 to 90 feet in length Not all

dinosaurs were giants, however, some were actually no larger than a chicken

Scientists still do not know what caused dinosaur to disappear One theory involves a change in the

earth’s climate It is believed that temperature dropped significantly towards the end of the Cretaceous

Period Too large to hibernate and not having fur or feathers for protection, it is possible that the climate

became too chilly for dinosaurs In contrast, other species having protection, such as the mammals and

birds, were able to survive

Question 60: What is the best title for this passage?

A The Domination of the Land B The Metabolism of Dinosaurs

C Earth’s Largest Reptiles D The History of Earth

Question 61: It can be inferred from the passage that the Age of Reptiles lasted about

A 200 million years B 135 million years C 80 million years D 65 million years

Question 62 : The author uses the phrase ―never to reemerge‖ to indicate that the dinosaurs

A became extinct B went into hiding C never died out D lost their way

Question 63: According to the passage, what is true about the size of dinosaurs?

A It made them the largest creatures ever on earth B It varied quite greatly

C It guaranteed their survival D It was rather uniform

Question 64: Which of the following can be inferred about mammals and birds

A Most have either fur or feathers over their bodies B They preceded the dinosaurs

C They were too large to hibernate D They could not survive the chilly temperatures
