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.

If the salinity of ocean waters is analyzed, it is found to vary only slightly from place to place Nevertheless, some of these small changes are important There are three basic processes that cause a change in oceanic salinity One of these is the subtraction of water from the ocean by means of

evaporation-conversion of liquid water to water vapor In this manner, the salinity is increased, since the

salt behind If this is carried to the extreme, of course, white crystals of salt would be left behind

The opposite of evaporation is precipitation, such as rain, by which water is added to the ocean Here the ocean is being diluted so that the salinity is decreased This may occur in areas of high rainfall or in coastal regions where rivers flow into the ocean Thus salinity may be increased by the subtraction of water by evaporation, or decreased by the addition of fresh water by precipitation or runoff

Normally, in tropical regions where the sun is very strong, the ocean salinity is somewhat higher than

it is in other parts of the world where there is not as much evaporation Similarly, in coastal regions where rivers dilute the sea, salinity is somewhat lower than in other oceanic areas

A third process by which salinity may be altered is associated with the formation and melting of sea

ice When seawater is frozen, the dissolved materials are left behind In this manner, seawater directly

beneath freshly formed sea ice has a higher salinity than it did before the ice appeared Of course, when

this ice melts, it will tend to decrease the salinity of the surrounding water

In the Weddell Sea, off Antarctica, the densest water in the ocean is formed as a result of this freezing process, which increases the salinity of cold water This heavy water sinks and is found in the deeper portions of the oceans of the world

A evaporation B precipitation C runoff D melting Question 39: Which of the following statements about the salinity of a body of water can best be inferred

from the passage?

A The temperature of the water is the most important factor.

B The speed with which water moves is directly related to the amount of salt.

C Ocean salinity has little effect on sea life

D Various factor combine to cause variation in the salt content of water

Question 40: The word “altered” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to

Question 41: The word “it” in paragraph 4 refers to

Reference books are not designed to be read from the first page to the last but rather to be consulted to answer the questions and provide both general and specific pieces of information

One of the most (45) _ used reference books is a dictionary, which provides information about words It lists meanings spelling, (46) _ how a word is pronounced, gives (47) _

of how it is used, may reveal its origins and also lists synonyms and (48) _To help you find the words faster, there are guide words at the top of each page showing the first and last worlds on that page-and of course it (49) _to know the alphabet!

There may be numerous special sections at the back with (50) _ about famous people and places, lists of dates and scientific names, etc There is usually a section at the front (51) _ how to use the dictionary, which includes the special abbreviations or signs

An atlas is also a reference book and (52) _ charts, tables and geographical facts, as well

as maps Political maps locate countries and cities, physical maps show the formation of the land with its mountains and valleys, and economic maps show industries and agriculture To find a specific place, you need to look in the (53) _ at the back of the atlas and the exact position on the map There are numerous map (54) _ that you need to know in order to be able to read a map almost like a special language and these are explained at the front of the atlas

Glass is a remarkable substance made from the simplest raw materials It can be colored or colorless, monochrome or polychrome, transparent, translucent, or opaque It is lightweight impermeable

to liquids, readily cleaned and reused, durable yet fragile and often very beautiful Glass can be decorated

in multiple ways and its optical properties are exceptional In all its myriad forms as table ware, containers, in architecture and design-glass represents a major achievement in the history of technological developments

Since the Bronze Age about 3,000 B.C., glass has been used for making various kinds of objects

It was first made from a mixture of silica, line and an alkali such as soda or potash, and these remained the basic ingredients of glass until the development of lead glass in the seventeeth century When heated, the mixture becomes soft and malleable and can be formed by various techniques into a vast array of shapes and sizes The homogeneous mass thus formed by melting then cools to create glass, but in contrast to most materials formed in this way (metals, for instance), glass lacks the crystalline structure normally associated with solids, and instead retains the random molecular structure of a liquid In effect,

as molten glass cools, it progressively stiffens until rigid, but does so without setting up a network of

interlocking crystals customarily associated with that process This is why glass shatters so easily when dealt a blow Why glass deteriorates over time, especially when exposed to moisture, and why glassware must be slowly reheated and uniformly cooled after manufacture to release internal stresses induced by

uneven cooling

Another unusual feature of glass is the manner in which its viscosity changes as it turns from a

cold substance into a hot, ductile liquid Unlike metals that flow or “freeze” at specific temperatures glass progressively soften as the temperature rises, going through varying stages of malleability until it flows like a thick syrup Each stage of malleability allows the glass to be manipulated into various forms, by different techniques, and if suddenly cooled the object retains the shape achieved at that point Glass is thus amenable to a greater number of heat-forming techniques than most other materials

Question 55: Why does the author list the characteristics of glass in paragraph 1?

A To demonstrate how glass evolved

B To show the versatility of glass

C To explain glassmaking technology

D To explain the purpose of each component of glass

Question 56:The word “durable” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _

Question 57: What does the author imply about the raw materials used to make glass?

A They were the same for centuries B They are liquid.

C They are transparent D They are very heavy.

Question 58: According to the passage, how is glass that has cooled and become rigid different from

most other rigid substances?

A It has an interlocking crystal network B It has an unusually low melting temperature

C It has varying physical properties D It has a random molecular structure

Question 59:The word “customarily” in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by “ _”

A naturally B necessarily C usually D certainly

Question 60:The words “exposed to” in paragraph 2 most likely mean _

A hardened by B chilled with C subjected to D deprived of

Question 61:What must be done to release the internal stresses that build up in glass products during

manufacture?

A The glass must be reheated and evenly cooled

B The glass must be cooled quickly

C The glass must be kept moist until cooled

D The glass must be shaped to its desired from immediately

Question 62:The word “induced” I paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _

Question 63:The word “it” in paragraph 3 refers to _

Question 64: According to the passage, why can glass be more easily shaped into specific forms than can

metals?

A It resists breaking when heated B It has better optical properties

C It retains heat while its viscosity changes D It gradually becomes softer as its temperature rises
