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

Humans have struggled against weeds since the beginnings of agriculture Marring our gardens is one

of the milder effects of weeds - any plants that thrive where they are unwanted They clog waterways,

destroy wildlife habitats, and impede farming Their spread eliminates grazing areas and accounts for one-third of all crop loss They compete for sunlight, nutrients, and water with useful plants

The global need for weed control had been answered mainly by the chemical industry Its herbicides are effective and sometimes necessary, but some pose serious problems, particularly if misused Toxic compounds threaten animal and public health when they accumulate in food plants, groundwater, and drinking water They also harm workers who apply them

In recent years, the chemical industry has introduced several herbicides that are more ecologically sound Yet new chemicals alone cannot solve the world's weed problems Hence, scientists are exploring

the innate weed-killing powers of living organisms, primarily insects and microorganisms

The biological agents now in use are environmentally benign and are harmless to humans They can be chosen for their ability to attack selected targets and leave crops and other plants untouched In contrast, some of the most effective chemicals kill virtually all the plants they come in contact with, sparing only

those that are naturally resistant or have been genetically modified for resistance Furthermore, a number

of biological agents can be administered only once, after which no added applications are needed

Chemicals typically must be used several times per growing season

Question 45: With what topic does this passage primarily deal?

A The importance of the chemical industry

B The dangers of toxic chemicals

C A proposal to ban the use of all herbicides

D Advantages of biological agents over chemical ones

Question 46: The word “marring” in bold is closest in meaning to

Many ants forage across the countryside in large numbers and undertake mass migrations; these activitiesproceed because one ant lays a trail on the ground for the others to follow As a worker ant returns home

after finding a source of food, it marks the route by intermittently touching its stinger on the ground and

depositing a tiny amount of trail pheromone - a mixture of chemicals that delivers diverse messages asthe context changes These trails incorporate no directional information and may be followed by otherants in either direction

Unlike some other messages, such as the one arising from a dead ant, a food trail has to be kept secret

from members of other species It is not surprising then that ant species use a wide variety of compounds

as trail pheromones Ants can be extremely sensitive to these signals Investigators working with the trailpheromone of the leafcutter ant Attatexana calculated that one milligram of this substance would suffice

to lead a column of ants three times around Earth

Trang 37

The vapor of the evaporating pheromone over the trail guides an ant along the way, and the ant detects

this signal with receptors in its antennae A trail pheromone will evaporate to furnish the highest

concentration of vapor right over the trail, in what is called a vapor space In following the trail, the ant

moves to the right and left, oscillating from side to side across the line of the trail itself, bringing first one

and then the other antenna into the vapor space As the ant moves to the right, its left antenna arrives inthe vapor space The signal it receives causes it to swing to the left, and the ant then pursues this newcourse until its right antenna reaches the vapor space It then swings back to the right, and so weaves backand forth down the trail
