Read the passage and choose the best answer for each question ( 45-54) below.

It is estimated that over 99 percent of all species that ever existed have become extinct What causesextinction? When a species is no longer adapted to a changed environment, it may perish The exact causes of aspecies’ death vary from situation to situation Rapid ecological change may render an environment hostile to aspecies For example, temperatures may change and a species may not be able to adapt Food Resources may

be affected by environmental changes, which will then cause problems For a species requiring these resources

Other species may become better adapted to an Environment, resulting in competition and, ultimately, in the

death of a species

The fossil record reveals that extinction has occurred throughout the history of Earth Recent analyseshave also revealed that on some occasions many species became extinct at the same time – a mass extinction

One of the best-known examples of mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago with the demise of

dinosaurs and many other forms of life

Perhaps the largest mass extinction was the one that occurred 225 million years ago, Whenapproximately 95 percent of all species died, Mass extinctions can be caused by a relatively rapid change in theenvironment and can be worsened by the close interrelationship of many species If, for example, something

were to happen to destroy much of the plankton in the oceans, then the oxygen content of Earth would drop,

affection even organisms not living in the oceans Such a change would probably lead to a mass extinction

One interesting, and controversial, finding is that extinctions during the past 250 Million years have

tended to be more intense every 26 million years This periodic extinction might be due to intersection of theEarth’s orbit with a cloud of comets, but this theory is purely speculative Some researchers have also

speculated tat extinction may often be random That is, certain species may be eliminated and others maysurvive for no particular reason A species’ survival may have nothing to do with its ability or inability toadapt If so, some of evolutionary history may reflect a sequence of essentially random events

45 The word “it” in line 2 refers to

A environment B species C extinction D 99 percent

46 The word “ultimately” in line 7 is closest in meaning to

A exceptionally B dramatically C eventually D unfortunately

47 What does the author say in paragraph 1 regarding most species in Earth’s history

A They have remained basically unchanged from their original forms

B They have been able to adapt to ecological changes

C They have caused rapid change in the environment

D They are no longer in existence

48 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in paragraph 1 as resulting from rapid ecological change?

A Temperature changes B Availability of food resources

C Introduction of new species D Competition among species

49 Why is “ plankton” mentioned in line 15?

A To demonstrate the interdependence of different species

B To emphasize the importance of food resources in preventing mass extinction

C To illustrate a comparison between organisms that live on the land and those that live in the ocean

D To point out that certain species could never become extinct

50 According to paragraph 2, evidence from fossils suggests that

A extinction of species has occurred from time to time throughout Earth’s history

B Extinctions on Earth have generally been massive

C there has been only one mass extinction in Earth’s history

D dinosaurs became extinct much earlier than scientists originally believed

51 The word “finding” in line 18 is closest in meaning to

A published information B research method

C ongoing experiment D scientific discovery

52 The word “demise” in line 11 is closest in meaning to

A change B recovery C help D death

53 In paragraph 3, the author makes which of the following statements about a species’ survival?

A It reflects the interrelationship of may species B It may depend on chance events

C It does not vary greatly from species to species D It is associated with astronomical conditions

54 According to the passage, it is believed that the largest extinction of a species occurred

A 26 million years ago B 65 million years ago

C 225 million years ago D 250 million years ago

Read the passage and choose the best answer for each question (55-64) below.

By far the most important United States export product in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was

cotton, favored by the European textile industry over flax or wool because it was easy to process and soft to

tile touch Mechanization of spinning and weaving allowed significant centralization and expansion in thetextile industry during this period, and at the same time the demand for cotton increased dramatically.American producers were able to meet this demand largely because of tile invention of the cotton gin by EliWhitney in 1793 Cotton could be grown throughout the South, but separating the fiber – or lint – from theseed was a laborious process Sea island cotton was relatively easy to process by hand, because its fibers werelong and seeds were concentrated at the base of the flower, but it demanded a long growing season, availableonly along the nation's eastern seacoast Short-staple cotton required a much shorter growing season, but theshortness of the fibers and their mixture with seeds meant that a worker could

hand-process only about one pound per day Whitney's gin was a hand-powered machine with revolving drumsand metal teeth to pull cotton fibers away from seeds Using the gin, a worker could produce up to 50 pounds

of lint a day The later development of larger gins, powered by horses, water, or steam, multiplied productivityfurther

The interaction of improved processing and high demand led to the rapid spread of the cultivation of

cotton and to a surge in production It became the main American export, dwarfing all others In 1802, cotton

composed 14 percent of total American exports by value Cotton had a 36 percent share by 1810 and over a 50percent share

in 1830 In 1860, 61 percent of the value of American exports was represented by cotton In contrast, wheatand wheat flour composed only 6 percent of the value of American exports in that year Clearly, cotton wasking in the trade of the young republic The growing market for cotton and other American agricultural

products led to an unprecedented expansion of agricultural settlement, mostly in the eastern half of the United

States -west of the Appalachian Mountains and east of the Mississippi River

55 The main point of the passage is that the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were a time when

A the European textile industry increased its demand for American export products

B mechanization of spinning and weaving dramatically changed the textile industry

C cotton became a profitable crop but was still time-consuming to process

D cotton became the most important American export product

56 The word "favored" in line 2 is closest in meaning to

A preferred B recommended C imported D included

57 All of the following are mentioned in the passage as reasons for the increased demand for cotton EXCEPT

A cotton's softness B cotton's ease of processing

C a shortage of flax and wool D the growth that occurred in the textile industry

58 The word "laborious" in line 6 is closest in meaning to

A unfamiliar B primitive C skilled D difficult

59 According to the passage, one advantage of sea island cotton was its

A abundance of seeds B long fibers

C long growing season D adaptability to different climates

60 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about cotton production in the United States after

the introduction of Whitney's cotton gin?

A More cotton came from sea island cotton plants than before

B More cotton came from short-staple cotton plants than before

C Most cotton produced was sold domestically

D Most cotton produced was exported to England

61 The word "surge" in line 14 is closest in meaning to

A sharp increase B sudden stop C important change D excess amount

62 The author mentions "wheat and wheat flour" in line 17 in order to

A show that Americans exported more agricultural products than they imported

B show the increase in the amount of wheat products exported

C demonstrate the importance of cotton among American export products

D demonstrate that wheat farming was becoming more profitable

63 The word "unprecedented" in line 18 is closest in meaning to

A slow B profitable C not seen before D never explained

64 According to the passage, the Mississippi River was

A one of the boundaries of a region where new agricultural settlement took place

B a major source of water for agricultural crops

C the primary route by which agricultural crops were transported

D a main source of power for most agricultural machinery

Human Nutrition is the study of how food affects the health and survival of the human body Human beings require food to grow, reproduce, and maintain good health Without food, our bodies could not stay warm, build or repair tissue, or maintain the heartbeat Eating the right foods can help us avoid certain diseases or recover faster when illness occurs These and other important functions are fueled by chemical substances in our food called nutrients Nutrients are classified as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water

When we eat a meal, nutrients are released from food through digestion Digestion begins in the mouth

by the action of chewing and the chemical activity of saliva, a watery fluid that contains enzymes, certain proteins that help break down food Further digestion occurs as food travels through the stomach and the small intestine, where digestive enzymes and acids liquefy food and muscle contractions push it along the digestive tract Nutrients are absorbed from the inside of the small intestine into the bloodstream and carried to the sites in the body where they are needed At these sites, several chemical reactions occur, which ensures the growth and function of body tissues The parts of foods that are not absorbed continue to move down the intestinal tract and are eliminated from the body as feces

Once digested, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats provide the body with the energy it needs to maintain

its many functions Scientists measure this energy in kilocalories, the amount of energy needed to raise one kilogram of water one degree Celsius In nutrition discussions, scientists use the term calorie instead of kilocalorie as the standard unit of measure in nutrition

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

Nutrients are classified as essential or nonessential Nonessential nutrients are manufactured in the bodyand do not need to be obtained from food Examples include cholesterol, a fatlike substance present in all animal cells Essential nutrients must be obtained from food sources, because the body either does not produce them or produces them in amounts too small to maintain growth and health Essential nutrients include water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals

An individual needs varying amounts of each essential nutrient, depending upon such factors as gender and age Specific health conditions, such as pregnancy, breast-feeding, illness, or drug use, make unusual

demands on the body and increase its need for nutrients Dietary guidelines, which take many of these

factors into account, provide general guidance in meeting daily nutritional needs

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 55 to 64.

Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural environment surrounding their homes This method of harvesting from nature's provision is the oldest known subsistence strategy and has been practised for at least the last two million years It was, indeed, the

only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced

about 10,000 years ago

Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their

numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts and

arctic wastelands In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant

life Such conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and

waterways The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has

provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants In short, the environmental differences haverestricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies

Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors We know from the observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting and gathering must be very mobile While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp When the food in the area has become exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site We also notice seasonal migration patterns evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes These patterns

of behavior may be similar to those practised by mankind during the Paleolithic Period

Question 55: A typical feature of both modern and prehistoric hunter-gatherers is that .

A they don't have a healthy and balanced diet B they live in the forests for all their life

C they don't have a strong sense of community D they often change their living places

Question 56: The word "marginal" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to

A suburban B disadvantaged C forgotten D abandoned

Question 57: According to the passage, studies of contemporary subsistence societies can provide a

A only the way of duty division B some restricted daily rules

C some methods of production D some patterns of behavior

Question 60: Which of the following would serve as the best title of the passage?

A Hunter-gatherers: Always on the Move B Evolution of Humans' Farming Methods

C Hunter-gatherers and Subsistence Societies D A Brief History of Subsistence Farming

Question 61: In the lower latitudes of the tropics, hunter- gatherers .

A have better food gathering from nature B live along the coasts and waterways for fishing

C harvest shorter seasonal crops D can free themselves from hunting

Question 62: According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned?

A The environmental differences produce no effect on subsistence societies.

B Hunting or fishing develops where there are no or short growing seasons.

C The number of hunter-gatherers decreases where farming is convenient.

D Harvesting from the natural environment had existed long before farming was taken up.

Question 63: The word "conditions" in the second paragraph refers to .

A the situations in which hunter-gatherers hardly find anything to eat

B the places where plenty of animals and fish can be found

C the environments where it is not favorable for vegetation to grow

D the situations in which hunter-gatherers can grow some crops
