Reading 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.

Today’s cars are smaller, safer, cleaner, and more economical than their predecessors, but the car

of the future will be far more pollution-free than those on the road today Several new types of automobile engines have already been developed than run on alternative sources of power, such as electricity, compressed natural gas, methanol, steam, hydrogen, and propane Electricity, however, is the only zero-emission option presently available

Although electric vehicles will not be truly practical until a powerful, compact battery or other dependable source of current is available, transport experts foresee a new assortment of electric

vehicles entering everyday life: shorter-range commuter electric cars, three-wheeled neighborhood cars, electric delivery vans, bikes and trolleys

As automakers work to develop practical electrical vehicles, urban planners and utility engineers are focusing on infrastructure systems to support and make the best use of the new cars Public

charging facilities will need to be as common as today’s gas stations Public parking spots on the

street or in commercial lots will need to be equipped with devices that allow drivers to charge their batteries while they stop, dine, or attend a concert To encourage the use of electric vehicles, the most convenient parking in transportation centers might be reserved for electric cars

Planners foresee electric shuttle buses, trains, buses and neighborhood vehicles all meeting at transit centers that would have facilities for charging and renting Commuters will be able to rent a

variety of electric cars to suit their needs: light trucks, one-person three-wheelers, small cars, or

electric/gasoline hybrid cars for longer trips, which will no doubt take place on automated freeways

capable of handling five times the number of vehicles that can be carried by freeway today

Question 45: The following electrical vehicles are all mentioned in the passage EXCEPT

Question 46: The author’s purpose in the passage is to

A criticize conventional vehicles

B support the invention of electric cars

C narrate a story about alternative energy vehicles

D describe the possibilities for transportation in the future

Question 47: The passage would most likely be followed by details about

A automated freeways B pollution restrictions in the future

C the neighborhood of the future D electric shuttle buses

Question 48: The word “compact” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to

A long-range B inexpensive C concentrated D squared

Question 49: In the second paragraph, the author implies that

A a dependable source of electric energy will eventually be developed.

B everyday life will stay much the same in the future.

C a single electric vehicle will eventually replace several modes of transportation

D electric vehicles are not practical for the future

Question 50: According to the passage, public parking lots of the future will be

A more convenient than they are today B equipped with charging devices

C much larger than they are today D as common as today’s gas stations

Question 51: The word “charging” in this passage refers to

A electricity B credit cards C aggression D lightning

Question 52: The word “foresee” in this passage could best be replaced with

Question 53: The word “commuters” in paragraph 4 refers to

A daily travelers B visitors C cab drivers D shoppers

Question 54: The word “hybrid” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to

A combination B hazardous C futuristic D automated

Read the following passage, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer.

Biological diversity has become widely recognized as a critical conservation issue only in the

past two decades The rapid destruction of the tropical rain forests, which are the ecosystems with the highest known species diversity on Earth, has awakened people to the importance and fragility of

biological diversity The high rate of species extinctions in these environments is jolting, but it is

important to recognize the significance of biological diversity in all ecosystems As the human population continues to expand, it will negatively affect one after another of Earth’s ecosystems In terrestrial ecosystems and in fringe marine ecosystems (such as wetlands), the most common problem is habitat destruction In most situations, the result is irreversible Now humans are beginning to destroy marine ecosystems through other types of activities, such as disposal and runoff

of poisonous waste; in less than two centuries, by significantly reducing the variety of species on Earth, they have irrevocably redirected the course of evolution

Certainly, there have been periods in Earth’s history when mass extinctions have occurred The extinction of the dinosaurs was caused by some physical event, either climatic or cosmic There have also been less dramatic extinctions, as when natural competition between species reached an extreme conclusion Only 0.01 percent of the species that have lived on Earth have survived to the present, and it was largely chance that determined which species survived and which died out

However, nothing has ever equaled the magnitude and speed with which the human species

is altering the physical and chemical world and demolishing the environment In fact, there is wide agreement that it is the rate of change humans are inflicting, even more than the changes themselves,

that will lead to biological devastation Life on Earth has continually been in flux as slow physical

and chemical changes have occurred on Earth, but life needs time to adapt-time for migration and genetic adaptation within existing species and time for the proliferation of new genetic material and new species that may be able to survive in new environments

Question 55: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The variety of species found in tropical rain forests

B The cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs

C The time required for species to adapt to new environments

D The impact of human activities on Earth’s ecosystems

Question 56: The word “critical” is closest in meaning to

A essential B negative C complicated D interesting

Question 57: The word “jolting” is closest in meaning to

Question 58: The author mentions the reduction of the variety of species on Earth in line 7-8 to

suggest that

A humans are often made ill by polluted water

B new habitats can be created for species

C some species have been made extinct by human activity

D understanding evolution can prevent certain species from disappearing

Question 59: The author mentions all of the following as examples of the effect of humans on the

world’s ecosystems EXCEPT

A damage to marine ecosystems

B habitat destruction in wetlands

C the introduction of new varieties of plant species

D destruction of the tropical rain forests

Question 60: The author mentions the extinction of the dinosaurs in the 2nd paragraph to emphasize that

A not all mass extinctions have been caused by human activity

B.actions by humans could not stop the irreversible process of a species’ extinction

C Earth’s climate has changed significantly since the dinosaurs’extinction

D the cause of the dinosaurs’ extinction is unknown

Question 61: The word “magnitude” is closest in meaning to .

A.carelessness B extent C determination D concern

Question 62: According to the passage, natural evolutionary change is different from changes

caused by humans in that changes caused by humans

A affect fewer ecosystems B are occurring at a much faster rate

C are reversible D are less devastating to most species

Question 63: Which of the following can best replace “in flux” ?

Question 64: With which of the following statements would the author be most likely to agree?

A The extinction of a few species is an acceptable consequence of human progress.

B Technology will provide solutions to problems caused by the destruction of ecosystems.

C Human influence on ecosystems should not be a factor in determining public policy.

D Humans should be more conscious of the influence they have on ecosystems.
