The city of Orlando, located in sunny central Florida, has experienced enormous growth and is internationally known as a popular tourist destination. Founded in 1844, Orlando was a small town for more
than a century. With the arrival of the South Florida Railroad in 1880, Orlando was on its way to rapid growth. However, no one could have predicted the extent of what was to come. This growth was intensified with the development of the Cape Canaveral space complex in 1950.
Two decades later, Orlando experienced rapid growth again on an incredible scale when Walt Disney World opened its gates to tourists in 1971. Located 22 miles southwest of Orlando, the Disney complex alone covers some 28,000 acres. In addition to having Florida's largest hotel (with 1,509 rooms), Walt Disney World has a variety of thrilling attractions, including the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom. Though Orlando has other industries, the tourist industry is by far the leading area of employment for the region. Because of this increase in tourism, Orlando has undergone an amazing amount of growth, which will likely continue given the popularity of this city as a world tourist destination.

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 36 to 42.
Fifty million years ago, New Zealand was home to penguins that stood as tall as humans and weighed as much as adult gorillas. Scientists have discovered fossils of the largest penguin known to date, thought to have weighed between 148 and 160 kilograms (300 and 340 pounds). "It totally blew me away the first time I saw it," lead study author Daniel Ksepka told Quirks & Quarks host Bob McDonald. "This thing
was gigantic. It makes an emperor penguin look kind of like a little tiny robin." In a new study published in the Journal of Paleontology, scientists identified two new species of penguins based on fossils embedded in rocky formations on the Otago beaches of New Zealand's South Island: Kumimanu fordycei and Petradyptes stonehousei. Both species are thought to have existed around 55 to 59 million years ago during the Paleocene era.
Researchers compared the fossils to the bones of 20 modern penguin species to learn more about the ancient water birds. "We probably would recognize it as a penguin, but it would have been quite distinct from the little fellows we see in zoos and aquariums today," said Ksepka, who is a curator at the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, Conn.
Only a couple of bones belonging to the giant K. fordycei- named after New Zealand paleontologist Ewan Fordyce-were discovered. But they were enough to give researchers a clue about its appearance. "We measured hundreds of penguin bones from modern species to try to estimate the body mass [of the ancient penguins]. And we arrived at a total of about 340 pounds, which is just kind of mind-blowing. I mean, imagine a penguin the size of a gorilla," Ksepka said. Emperor penguins, the largest species alive today, weigh about 40 kilograms (90 pounds) which makes K. fordycei nearly four times heavier. The smaller of the two newly discovered species P. stonehousei-named after biologist Bernard Stonehouse - also outweighs the modern emperor penguin, weighing in at 50 kilograms.
