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 43 to 50

A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake, one of

the world’s largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice Now known

as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its

waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth’s core The thick glacier above Lake

Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface.

The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size It was not until much more recently that data collected

by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake

The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the

scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that

have survived for thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and

elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in more exposed areas The downside

of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this

A undrinkable B untouched C unexploitable D undiscovered Question 44: What is true of Lake Vostok?

Question 45: Which of the following is closest in meaning to “frigid” in paragraph 1?

Question 46: All of the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that

it

A was conducted by air B made use of radio waves

C could not determine the lake’s exact size D was controlled by a satellite

Question 47: It can be inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if .

A there were no lake underneath B the lake were not so big

C Antarctica were not so cold D radio waves were not used

Question 48: The word “microbes” in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by which of the

following?

A Pieces of dust B Tiny bubbles C Tiny organisms D Rays of light Question 49: Lake Vostok is potentially important to scientists because it .

A can be studied using radio waves

B may contain uncontaminated microbes

C may have elevated levels of ultraviolet light

D has already been contaminated

Question 50: The purpose of the passage is to .
