Read the following two passages and choose the correct answer to each of the
questions.
Rock and soil samples brought back from the moon by the Apollo astronauts have taught scientists much about the composition of the moon Moon soil contains small bits of rock and glass and was probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the moon Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in the moon soil In addition to the moon soil, astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the moon: basalt and breccia Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the earth Since basalt is formed under extremely high temperatures, the presence of this type
of rock is an indication that the temperature of the moon was once extremely hot Breccia, the other kind of rock brought back by the astronauts, was formed during the impact of falling objects on the surface of the moon This second type of rock
consists of small pieces of rock compressed together by the force of impact Gases such as hydrogen and helium were found in some of the rocks, and scientists believe that these gases were carried to the moon on the streams of gases that are constantly emitted from the sun
31.Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for this passage?

ZOOS – THEN AND NOW Modem zoos are very different from zoos that were built fifty years ago At that time, zoos were places where people could go to see animals from the parts of the world The animals lived in cages that were made of concrete with iron bars, cages that were easy to keep clean Unfortunately for the animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in The zoo environment was anything but natural Although the zookeepers took good care of the animals and fed them well, many of the animals did not thrive; they behaved in strange ways, and they often became ill
In modem zoos, people can see animals in more natural habitats The animals are given more freedom in large areas so that they live more as they would in nature Even the appearance of zoos has changed Trees and grass grow in the cages, and the streams of water flow through the areas that the animals live in There are few bars; instead, there is often only a deep ditch, filled with water, which is called a moat The moat surrounds an area where several species of animals live together as they would naturally For example,
in the San Diego Zoo, the visitors can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with trees, some small animals, and many birds This particular kind of cage is called an aviary;
it is large enough that the birds can live naturally The birds in the aviary fly around, make
Trang 5nests in the trees, and hunt for food At the Zoological Park in New York City, because of special night lights, people can observe nocturnal animals that most people have never seen; these animals are active only at night, when most zoos are closed In a zoo like the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, people can see animals that live in the special
environments like the desert Some other zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live under water like fish Still other zoos have special places for animals that live in cold polar surroundings like the great white bear from the Arctic region
Modem zoos not only display animals for visitors, but they also preserve and save
