Read the passage and answer these following questions.
Chromium Compounds
Most chromium compounds have brightly colored hues, and as a result they are widely used as coloring agents, or pigments, in paints. In addition to having a pleasing color, a paint must protect the surface to which it is applied and be easy to apply in a thin, uniform coat.
All paints consist of two parts. One is a powder of solid particles that is the source of the color and the opaqueness and is known as the pigment. The other, called the binder, is the liquid into which the pigment is blended. The binder used in some paints is made from oily solvents such as those derived from petroleum resources. When applied, these solvents evaporate, leaving deposits of pigment on the surface.
1. The word “they” in paragraph 1 refers to ________________.
- A. chromium compounds
- B. brightly colored hues
- C. coloring agents
- D. pigments
2. The word “it” in paragraph 1 refers to _______________.
- A. a pleasing color
- B. a paint
- C. the surface
- D. a thin, uniform coat
3. The word “that” in paragraph 2 refers to _____________.
- A. a-powder
- B. solid particles
- C. the source
- D. the color
4. The word “which” in paragraph 2 refers to ________________.
- A. powder
- B. paint
- C. liquid
- D. pigment
5. The word “those” in paragraph 2 refers to ______________.
- A. some paints
- B. oily solvents
- C. Petroleum resources
- D. deposits of pigment
Read the passage and answer these following questions.
Hawaii was originally settled by the natives of the South Pacific, who arrived in the islands in canoes laden with breadfruit, yams, taro, coconut, bananas, pigs, and chickens. Supplementing these foods were over a hundred different edible fishes and 40 kinds of seaweed from the surrounding waters. Hawaiian food was eaten raw or wrapped in taro leaves, seasoned with coconut, and cooked.
In the early 1800s, the whalers and missionaries introduced stews, chowders, curries, corned beef, dried beef, salt salmon, and Indian and cornstarch puddings. Most likely, pipkaula (jerked beef), lomi lomi salmon, and haupia (coconut pudding) evolved during this period.
In the late nineteenth century immigrants from China, Japan, and Korea were brought to Hawaii to work the sugar plantations. The Chinese brought rice, soybeans, and vegetables and their ways of cooking them. The Japanese brought sukiyaki and teriyaki, among many other foods. Settlers from the Continental United States also brought their favorite recipes and in the spirit of aloha, the Hawaiians have accepted each group’s offerings and drawn the best from them. Thus a Hawaiian feast is a gastronomic experience, the essence of Hawaii and its many cultures.
1. What is the main topic of the passage?
- A. Whalers and missionaries introduced new kinds of foods to the people of Hawaii.
- B. Sugar plantations were worked by immigrants from Asia, who brought their native foods with them.
- C. Hawaiian food is a combination of the foods of many peoples and a reflection of Hawaii’s history.
- D. The natives of the South Pacific who first settled in Hawaii ate raw food, whereas other immigrants cooked theirs.
Read the passage and answer these following questions.
Limestone Caves
Limestone caves can be spectacular structures tilled with giant stalactites and stalagmites. These caves are formed when rainwater, which is a weak acid, dissolves calcite, or lime, out of limestone. Over time, the lime-laden water drips down into cracks, enlarging them into caves. Some of the lime is then redeposited to form stalactites and stalagmites.
Stalagmites are formed on the floor of a limestone cave where water containing dissolved lime has dripped either from the cave ceiling or from a stalactite above. They develop in the same way as stalactites, when water containing dissolved limestone evaporates. In some limestone caves with mature limestone development, stalactites and stalagmites grow together, creating limestone pillars that stretch from the cave floor to the cave ceiling.
Stalactites, which grow down from cave ceilings, are formed in limestone caves when groundwater containing dissolved lime drips from the root of the cave and leaves a thin deposit as it evaporates. Stalactites generally grow only attraction of an inch each year, but over time a considerable number may grow to be several yards long. In cases where the supply of water is seasonal, they may actually have growth rings resembling those on tree trunks that indicate how old the stalactites are.
1. It is indicated in paragraph 1 that all of the following are part of the process of forming limestone caves EXCEPT that ________________.
- A. rainwater dissolves lime from limestone
- B. the lime-tilled water seeps into breaks in the ground
- C. the lime in the water evaporates
- D. the cracks in the ground develop into caves
2. According to paragraph 2, it is NOT true that stalactites ________________.
- A. enlarge cave ceilings
- B. are found in limestone caves
- C. grow in a downward direction
- D. grow quite slowly
3. It is NOT mentioned in paragraph 2 ___________________.
- A. how long stalactites may grow
- B. how the age of a stalactite is determined
- C. what one of the effects of a limited water supply is
- D. what causes stalactites to disappear
4. According to paragraph 3, stalagmites are NOT formed _________________.
- A. on cave floors
- B. from lime dissolved in water
- C. above stalactites
- D. as water containing lime evaporates
5. It is NOT indicated in paragraph 3 that limestone pillars ______________.
- A. result when a stalactite and a stalagmite grow together
- B. are attached to both the floor and the ceiling of a cave
- C. are relatively aged limestone formations
- D. are more durable than stalactites and stalagmites
Read the passage and answer these following questions.
Brown bears are found in Alaska and western Canada. They are first cousins of the grizzly, each belonging to the species Ursus arctos. The chief difference in them is size, as brown bears on the average are slightly larger. A full-grown male may weigh 1,500 pounds and stand 9 to 10 feet tall. Like bears everywhere they are creatures of habit that tread the same trails year after year. Brown bears have three gaits: an even, deliberate one that takes them over rough or boggy ground at a steady clip, a quick shuffle, and a fast gallop. They are not only surprisingly fast, but also, for such huge beasts, amazingly agile. They can charge up and climb down nearly vertical inclines. Fishing the streams in summer, they pounce on swift-moving salmon and snatch them with almost simultaneous movements of their paws and mouths. Brown bears are excellent swimmers and love to loll and wallow in the water on warm days. They are also curious and playful. Most manifest a fear of humans, but Alaskans prefer not to test these creatures and usually carry noisemakers of some kind to warn the bears of their presence.
1. It can be inferred from the passage that _______________.
- A. Grizzlies are smaller than brown bears
- B. Brown bears do not have the same habits as most bears
- C. Grizzlies are not found in western Canada
- D. Grizzlies and brown bears are not related
2. It is most probable that if a brown bear came across a human in the wild it would ________.
- A. attack the human
- B. avoid the human
- C. not be the least interested in the human
- D. be friendly toward the human
3. The passage implies that brown bears _______________.
- A. are huge, awkward animals
- B. can negotiate almost any terrain
- C. are fierce and bad-tempered
- D. are not afraid of loud noises
4. The passage suggests that ___________________.
- A. it would not be unusual to see a bear cross a deep river
- B. brown bears catch salmon in quiet pools
- C. brown bears like to range over new territory
- D. brown bears are slow but agile
5. Which of the following can be implied from the passage?
- A. Alaskans have no fear of the brown bear.
- B. Alaskans do not know very much about the habits of the brown bear.
- C. Alaskans are not creatures of habit.
- D. Alaskans have a cautious respect for the brown bear.
Read a text about home design and choose the correct answer.
Welcome to the home of the future
The 2009 British Homes Awards challenged the industry to design a house that can adapt to different life stages.
The participants were asked to rethink the construction and design of individual homes, so that they were easily adaptable to less mobile inhabitants, and also to create communities in which ageing occupants could continue to enjoy shared amenities.
The top design also had to be attractive to its potential buyers, because the competition was put to the public vote.
The winner, gaining 12,000 votes from Mail on Sunday readers, was the strikingly modern SunnySideUp, designed by Kosi Architects. Here are its three main features:
1. Upside Down House
The architects took as a starting point the accepted norm for a house – rows of houses facing onto streets crammed with cars, with living rooms on the ground floor and bedrooms above. Then they scrapped it.
They ended up with the living room, dining room and kitchen on the top floor where they can benefit from the light and views, and maximise energy efficiency. And they put the bedrooms on the ground floor where the garden aspect gives inhabitants increased privacy, and a cool temperature is maintained throughout the day. The two floors are linked by wide, gentle gradient stairs, which are designed to allow for a stair lift to be fitted if necessary as owners age.
2. Concealed Parking Spaces
But the feature that, according to Warren Rosing, one of the Kosi architects responsible for the design, was particularly popular with the public, is actually the parking.
In a SunnySideUp development no one has to look out onto a street full of cars, or worry about their kids being run over, because the terrace zone at the first floor level link all the homes and is a car-free zone.
Vehicles are tucked away on the lower floor, leaving safe and pleasant spaces outside the houses for people to meet, and kids to play.
A lift takes people directly from garage to living area, so that all residents, including the elderly and those with heavy shopping, can move comfortably between the floors. The natural feel of the front area is enhanced by the planters that are placed outside the kitchens at the front to encourage residents to grow vegetables and flowers where they can be seen.
The idea is that not only would they look pretty, but they would be a talking point, encouraging interaction between residents on the terrace area outside.
3. Flexible Spaces
But it’s the fact that the space is designed to adapt to the changing needs, including the fluctuating income of its owners, that makes it a thought-provoking, as well as a winning, design.
The lower-floor bedrooms have separate outdoor access so they can be easily let. The idea is that owners can get some extra money to pay for their mortgages during the first years. And later in the future, those bedrooms can be used as a granny flat, or an office, and can easily be converted into a separate one-bed flat if your kids won’t leave home.
And if more space is required, as well as the usual loft that can be converted, there is potential for a gallery floor to be inserted in the living room.
4. Where can you get one?
At the moment the SunnySideUp house is still just a set of drawings. But Warren Rosing says, “We are hoping to have it built.”
The organisers are in talks with builders, but due to the economic climate it may take longer than we would like.”Weʼre sure it will be worth the wait” they say.
