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 35 to 44
Geographers say that what defines a place are four properties: soil, climate, altitude, and aspect,
or attitude to the Sun Florida’s ancient scrub demonstrates this principle Its soil is pure silica, so
barren it supports only lichens as ground cover (It does, however, sustain a sand-swimming lizard that
cannot live where there is moisture or plant matter the soil.) Its climate, despite more than 50 inches of
annual rainfall, is blistering desert plant life it can sustain is only the xerophytic, the quintessentially
dry Its altitude is a mere couple of hundred feet, but it is high ground on a peninsula elsewhere close to
sea level, and its drainage is so critical that a difference of inches in elevation can bring major changes
in its plant communities Its aspect is flat, direct, brutal – and subtropical Florida’s surrounding
lushness cannot impinge on its desert scrubbiness
This does not sound like an attractive place It does not look much like one either; Shrubby little
oaks, clumps of scraggly bushes, prickly pear, thorns, and tangles “It appear Said one early
naturalist,” to desire to display the result of the misery through which it has Passed and is passing.” By
our narrow standards, scrub is not beautiful; neither does it meet our selfish utilitarian needs Even the
name is an epithet, a synonym for the stunted, the scruffy, the insignificant, what is beautiful about
such a place?
The most important remaining patches of scrub lie along the Lake Wales Ridge, a chain of paleo
islands running for a hundred miles down the center of Florida, in most places less than ten miles wide
It is relict seashore, tossed up millions of years ago when ocean levels were higher and the rest of the
peninsula was submerged That ancient emergence is precisely what makes Lake Wales Ridge so
precious: it has remained unsubmerged, its ecosystems essentially undisturbed, since the Miocene era
As a result, it has gathered to itself one of the largest collections of rare organisms in the world Only
about 75 plant species survive there, but at least 30 of these are found nowhere else on Earth
Question 35: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A How geographers define a place
B The characteristics of Florida’s ancient scrub
C An early naturalist’s opinion of Florida
D The history of the Lake Wales Ridge

Question 37: It can be inferred from the passage that soil composed of silica _
A does not hold moisture C nourishes many kinds of ground cover
B is found only in Florida D provides food for many kinds of lizards

Question 39: The author mentions the prickly pear (line 11) as an example of

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 45 to 54
Most people can remember a phone number for up to thirty seconds When this short amount of time
elapses, however, the numbers are erased from the memory How did the information get there in the first place?
Information that makes its way to the short term memory (STM) does so via the sensory storage area The brain
has a filter which only allows stimuli that is of immediate interest to pass on to the STM, also known as the
working memory
There is much debate about the capacity and duration of the short term memory The most accepted
theory comes from George A Miller, a cognitive psychologist who suggested that humans can remember
approximately seven chunks of information A chunk is defined as a meaningful unit of information, such as a
word or name rather than just a letter or number Modern theorists suggest that one can increase the capacity of
the short term memory by chunking, or classifying similar information together By organizing information, one
can optimize the STM, and improve the chances of a memory being passed on to long term storage
Making a conscious effort to memorize something, such as information for an exam, many people
engage in “rote rehearsal” By repeating something over and over again, one is able to keep a memory alive
Unfortunately, this type of memory maintenance only succeeds if there are no interruptions As soon as a person
stops rehearsing the information, it has the tendency to disappear When a pen and paper are not handy, people
often attempt to remember a phone number by repeating it aloud If the doorbell rings or the dog barks to come
in before a person has the opportunity to make a phone call, he will likely forget the number instantly Therefore,
rote rehearsal is not an efficient way to pass information from the short term to long term memory A better way
is to practice “elaborate rehearsal” This involves assigning semantic meaning to a piece of information so that it
can be filed along with other pre-existing long term memories
Encoding information semantically also makes it more retrievable Retrieving information can be done
by recognition or recall Humans can easily recall memories that are stored in the long term memory and used
often; however, if a memory seems to be forgotten, it may eventually be retrieved by prompting The more cues
a person is given (such as pictures), the more likely a memory can be retrieved This is why multiple choice tests
are often used for subjects that require a lot of memorization
Question 45: According to the passage, how do memories get transferred to the STM?
A They revert from the long term memory
B They are filtered from the sensory storage area
C They get chunked when they enter the brain
D They enter via the nervous system
Question 46: The word “elapses” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _

Question 47: All of the following are mentioned as places in which memories are stored
EXCEPT the _
A STM B long term memory C sensory storage D maintenance area
Question 48: Why does the author mention a dog’s bark?
A To give an example of a type of memory
B To provide a type of interruption
C To prove that dogs have better memories than humans
D To compare another sound that is loud like a doorbell
Question 49: How do theorists believe a person can remember more information in a short time?
A By organizing it B By repeating it C By giving it a name D By drawing it
Question 50: The author believes that rote rotation is
A the best way to remember something C ineffective in the long run
B more efficient than chunking D an unnecessary interruption
Question 51: The word “it” in the last paragraph refers to _
A encoding B STM C semantics D information
Question 52: The word “elaborate” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to
A complex B efficient C pretty D regular
Question 53: Which of the following is NOT supported by the passage?
A The working memory is the same as the short term memory
B A memory is kept alive through constant repetition
C Cues help people to recognize information
D Multiple choice exams are the most difficult
Question 54: The word “cues” in the passage is closest in meaning to _
A questions B clues C images D Tests
