Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater, 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 warned by geothermal heat from the
earth's core This thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from frigid temperatures (the
lowest ever recorded on Earth) 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; 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 fresh water 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 upon 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
Question 36: The purpose of the passage is to .
A explain how Lake Vostok was discovered
B provide satellite data concerning Antarctica
C discuss future plans for Lake Vostok
D present an unexpected aspect of Antarctica's geography
Question 37: What is true of Lake Vostok?
Trang 5A It is completely frozen.
B It is a saltwater lake
C It is beneath a thick slab of ice
D It is heated by the sun
Question 38: Which of the following is closest in meaning to "frigid" in the first paragraph?
Question 39: 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 did not measure the exact size of the lake
D was controlled by a satellite
Question 40: It can be interfered from the passage that ice would not be flat if .
C Antarctica were not so cold D radio waves were not used
Question 41: The word "microbes" in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by which of the following?
Question 42: The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses _.
A further discoveries on the surface of Antarctica
B problems with satellite-borne radar equipment
C ways to study Lake Vostok without contaminating it
D the harsh climate of Antarctica
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.
It is estimated that over 99 percent of all species that ever existed have become extinct What
causes extinction? When a species is no longer adapted to a changed environment, it may perish The
exact causes of a species' death vary from situation to situation Rapid ecological change may render an environment hostile to a species For example, temperatures may change and a species may not be adapted 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 analyses have 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, when approximately 95 percent of all species died Mass extinctions can be caused by a relatively rapid change in the environment 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, even affect 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 The periodic extinction might be due to intersection
Trang 6of the earth's orbit with a cloud of comets, but this theory is purely speculative Some researchers have also speculated that extinction may often be random That is, certain species may be eliminated and others may survive for no particular reason A species' survival may have nothing to do with its ability or inability to adapt If so, some of revolutionary history may reflect a sequence of essentially random events
Question 43: The word "it" refers to _.
Question 44: he word "ultimately" is closest meaning to .
Question 45: 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 are no longer in existence
C they have been able to adapt to ecological changes
D they have caused rapid change in the environment
Question 46: The word "demise" is closest in meaning to .
Question 47: Why is "plankton" mentioned?
A to illustrate a comparison between organisms that live on the land and those that live in the ocean
B to point out that certain species could never become extinct
C to demonstrate the interdependence of different species
D to emphasize the importance of food resources in preventing mass extinction
Question 48: According to paragraph 2, evidence from fossils suggests that
A extinctions on Earth have generally been massive
B dinosaurs became extinct much earlier than scientists originally believed
C there has been only one mass extinction in Earth's history
D extinction of species has occurred from time to time throughout Earth's history
Question 49: Which of the following can be inferred from the theory of periodic extinction mentioned in
paragraph 3?
A many scientists could be expected to disagree with it
B most scientists believe the theory to be accurate
C the theory is no longer seriously considered
D evidence to support the theory has recently been found
Question50: In paragraph 3, the author makes which of the following statements about a
species' survival?
A it may depend on chance events
B it does not vary greatly from species to species
C it reflects the interrelationship of many species
D it is associated with astronomical conditions
