In this section you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions about it. For questions 26-50
you are to choose the one best answer, (A), (B), (C), or (D), to each question. Then, on your answer sheet, find the
number of the question and fill in the space that corresponds to the letter of the answer you have chosen.
Answer all questions following a passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage.
"The railroad was not the first institution to impose regularity on society, or to draw attention to the importance of
precise timekeeping. For as long as merchants have set out their wares at daybreak and communal festivities have been
celebrated, people have been in rough agreement with their neighbors as to the time of day. The value of this tradition is
today more apparent than ever. Were it not for public acceptance of a single yardstick of time, social life would be
unbearably chaotic; the massive daily transfers of goods, services, and information would proceed in fits and starts; the
very fabric of modern society would begin to unravel."
Example I
What is the main idea of the passage?
(A) In modern society we must make more time for our neighbors.
(B) The traditions of society are timeless.
(C) An accepted way of measuring time is essential for the smooth functioning of society.
(D) Society judges people by the times at which they conduct certain activities.
The main idea of the passage is that societies need to agree about how time is to be measured in order to function
smoothly. Therefore, you should choose (C),
Example II
In line 5, the phrase “this tradition” refers to....
(A) The practice of starting the business day at dawn.
(B) Friendly relations between neighbors.
(C) The railroad’s reliance on time schedules.
(D) People’s agreement on the measurement of time.
The phrase “this tradition” refers to the preceding clause, “people have been in rough agreement with their neighbors as
to the time of day. “ therefore, you should choose (D).

Questions 51-60 refer to the following passage
All mammals feed their young. Beluga whale mothers,for example, nurse their calves for some twenty months, until
they are about to give birth again and their young are able to find their own food. The behavior of feeding of the young is
built into the reproductive system. It is a non elective part of parental care and the defining feature of a mammal, the
most important thing that mammals -- whether marsupials, platypuses, spiny anteaters, or placental mammals – have in
common.
But not all animal parents, even those that tend their offspring to the point of hatching or birth, feed
their young. Most egg-guarding fish do not, for the simple reason that their young are so much smaller than the parents
and eat food that is also much smaller than the food eaten by adults. In reptiles, crocodile mother protects her young after
they have hatched and takes them down to the water, where they will find food, but she does not actually feed them. Few
insects feed their young after hatching, but some make other arrangement, provisioning their cells and nests with
caterpillars and spiders that they have paralyzed with their venom and stored in
a state of suspended animation so that their larvae might have a supply of fresh food when they hatch.
For animals other than mammals, then, feeding is not intrinsic to parental care. Animal add it to their
reproductive strategies to give them an edge in their lifelong quest for descendants. The most vulnerable moment in any
animal’s life is when it first finds itself completely on its own, when it must forage and fend for itself. Feeding
postpones that moment until a young animal has grown to such a size that it is better able to cope. Young that are fed by
their parents become nutritionally independent at a much greater fraction of their full adult size. And in the meantime
those young are shielded against the vagaries of fluctuating of difficult-to-find supplies. Once a species
does take the step of feeding its young, the young become totally dependent on the extra effort. If both parents are
removed, the young generally do no survive.

Question 61-70 refer to the following passage.
The first peoples to inhabit what today is the southeastern united states sustained themselves
as hunters and gathers. Sometimes early in the first millennium A.D, however, they began to cultivate corn and other
crops. Gradually, as they became more skilled at gardening, they settled into permanent villages and developed a rich
culture, characterized by the great earthen mounds they erected as monuments to their gods
and as tombs for their distinguished dead. Most of these early mound builders were part of the adena-Hopewell culture,
which had its beginnings near the ohio river and takes its name from sites in ohio. The culture spread southward into the
present-day states of louisiana, alabama, georgia, and florida. Its peoples became
great traders, bartering jewellery, pottery, animal pelts, tools, and other goods along
extensive trading networks that stretched up and down eastern north america and as far west as the rocky mountains.
About A.D. 400 the hopewell culture fell into decay. Over the next centuries, it was supplanted by another culture, the
missippian, named after the river along
which many of its earliest villages were located. This complex civilization dominated the southeast
from A.D. 700 until shortly before the europeans began arriving in the sixteenth century. At the peak of its strength,
about the year 1200, it was the most advanced culture in north america. Like their hopewell predecessors, the
mississippians became highly skilled at growing food, although on a grander scale.
they developed an improved strain of corn, which could survive in wet soil and a relatively cool climate, and
also learned to cultivate beans. Indeed, agriculture became so important to the mississippians that it became closely
associated with the sun --- the guarantor of good crops. Many tribes called themselves “children of the sun” and believed
their omnipotent priest-chiefs were descendants of the great sun god.
although most mississippians lived in small villages, many others inhabited large towns. Most of these towns
boasted at least one major flat-topped mound on which stood a temple that contained a sacred flame. Only priest and
those charged with guarding the flame could enter the temples. The mounds also served as ceremonial and trading sites,
and at times they were used as burial grounds.

Questions 71-78 refer to the following passage.
Overland transport in the united states was still extremely primitive in 1790. Roads were few and short, usually
extending from inland communities to the nearest river town or seaport. Nearly all interstate commerce was carried out
by sailling ships
threshold of a new era of road development. Unable to finance road construction, states turned for help to
private companies, organized by merchants and land speculators who had a personal interest in improved
communications with the interior. The pioneer in this move was the state of pennsylvania, which chartered a company in
1792 to construct a turnpike, a road for the use of which a toll, payment, is collected,
from philadelphia to lancaster. The legistlature gave the company the authorityto erect tollgates at points along
the road where payment would be collected, though it carefully regulated the rates. ( the states had unquestioned
authority to regulate private business in this period.)
The company built a gravel road within two years, and the succes of the lancaster
pike encouraged imitation. Northern states generally relied on private companies to build their toll roads, but
virginia constructed a network at public expense. Such was the road building fever that by 1810 new york had some
1,500 miles of turnpikes extending from the atlantic to lake erie
Transportation on these early turnpikes consisted of freight carrier wagons and
passenger stagecoaches. The most common road freight carrier was the conestoga wagon, a vehicle developed
in the mid-eighteenth century by german immigrants in the area around lancaster, pennsylvania. It featured large, broad
wheels able to negotiate all but the deepest ruts and holes, and its around bottom prevented the freight from shifting on a
hill. Convered with canvas and drawn by four to six horses,
the conestoga wagon rivaled the log cabin as the primary symbol of the frontier. Passengers traveled in a
variety of stagecoaches, the most common of which had four benches, each holding three persons. It was only a platform
on wheels, with no springs; slender poles held up the top leather curtains kept out dust and rain.

Question 79 to 83
We believe the Earth is about 4.6 billion years old. At percent, we are forced to look to other bodies in the solar system
for hints as to what the early history of the Earth was like. Studies of our moon, Mercury, Mars, and the large satellites
of Jupiter and Saturn have provided ample evidence that all these large celestial bodies had formed. This same
bombardment must have affected Earth as well. The lunar record indicates that the rate of impacts decreased to its
present low level about 4 billion years ago. On Earth, subsequent erosion and crustal motions have obliterated the craters
that must have formed during this epoch.
Scientists estimate the Earth’s age by measuring the ratios of various radioactive elements in rocks. The oldest Earth’s
rocks tested thus far are about 3 1/3 billion years old. But no one knows whether these are oldest rocks on Earth. Tests on
rocks from the moon and on meteorites show that these are about 4.6 billion years old. Scientists believe that this is the
true age of the solar system and probably the true age of the Earth.

Question 89 - 98
In death valley, california, one of the hottest, most arid places in north america, there is much salt, and salt can damage
rocks impressively. Inhabitants of areas elsewhere, where streets and higways are salted to control ice, are familiar with
the of salt, but it is not the way salt destroys rocks. Salt breaks rocks apart principally by a procces called crystal prying
and wedging. This happens not by soaking the rocks in salt water, but by moistening their bottoms with salt water. Such
conditions exist inmany areas along the eastern edge of central death valley. There, salty water rises from the
groundwater table by capillary action through tiny spaces in sediment until it reaches the surface
Most stones have capillary passages that suck salt water from the wet ground. Death valley provides
an ultra-dry atmosphere and high daily temperatures, which promote evaporation and the formation of salt crystals along
the cracks or other openings within stones. These crystal grow as long as salt water is available. Like
tree roots breaking up a sidewalk, the growing crystal exert pressure on the rock and eventually pry the rock apart along
planes of weakness, such as banding in metamorphic rocks, bedding in sedimentary rocks, or preexisting or incipient
fractions, and along boundaries between individual mineral crystal or grains. Besides crystal growth, the expansion of
halite crystals (the same as everyday table salt) by heating
and of sulfates and similar salts by hydration can contribute additional stesses. A rock durable enough to have withstood
natural conditions for a very long time in other areas could probably be shattered into small pieces by salt weathering
within a few generations.
The dominant salt in death valley is halite, or sodium chloride, but other salts, mostly carbonates and
sulfates, also cause prying and wedging, as does ordinary ice. Weathering by a variety of salts, though often subtle, is a
worldwide phenomenon. Not restricted to arid regions, intense salt weathering occurs mostly in salt-rich places like the
seashore, near the large saline lakes in the dry valleys of antartica, and indesrt sections of australia, new zealand, and
cenral asia.
