Questin for 11- 22
As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and Zuni indians
of North america were building with adobe sun-baked brick plastered with mud. There
homes looked remarkably like modern apartement houses some were four stories high
and contained quartersfor perhaps thousand people. Along with store rooms for grain
and other goods. This building were usually put up against cliffs, both to make
construction easier and for defense against enemies. They were really villages in them
selves as later spanish explorers must have realized since they called them pueblos,
which is spanish for towns.
The people of the pueblos raised what are called the three sistercorn, beans,
and squash. They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous baskets, some so fine
that they could hold water. The Southwest has always been a dry country, where water
is scarce. The Hopi and Zuni brought water from streams to their fields and gardens

through irrigation ditches. Water was so important that it played a major role in their
religion. They developed elaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring rain.
The way of life of les-settled groups was simpler and more strongly influenced by
nature. Small tribes such as the Shosone and Ute wandered the dry and mountainous
lands between the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. They gathered seeds and
hunted seals, walruses, ang the great whales. They lived right on the frozen seas in
shelters called igloos built of blocks of packed snow. When summer came, they fished
for salmon and hunted the lordly caribou.
The Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Sioux tribes, known as the Plains Indians, lived on
the grassland between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River. They hunted
bison, commonly called the buffalo. Its meat was the chief food of these tribes, and its
hide was used to make their clothing and the covering of their tents and tipis

Questions 37-44
What makes it rain?Rain falls from clouds the same reason anything falls to
Earth. The Earths gravity pulls it. But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice
crystals. Why doesnt rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice
crystals in clouds are exceedingly small. The effect of gravity in them is minute. Air
currents move and lift droplets so that the net down ward displacement is zero, even
though the droplets are in constant motion.
Droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air made visible in a
shaft of sunlight. To the casual observer, dust seems to act in a totally random fashion,
moving about chaotically without fixed direction. But in fact dust particles are much
larger than water droplets and they finally fall. The average size of a cloud droplest is
only 0,004 inch in diameter. It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a
mile in perfectly still air,and it does not fall out of moving air at all. Only when the droplet

grows to a diameter of 0,008 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud. The average
raindrop contains a million times as much water as a tiny cloud droplet. The growth of a
cloud to a size large enough to fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of
precipitation. This important growth is called coalescence.

41. The word random in line 8 is closest in meaning to..

Questions 46-50
Botany, the study of plants,occupies a peculiar position in the history of human
knowledge. For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which
humans had anything more than the vaguest of insights. It is impossible to know today
just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of
preindustrial societies that still exists, a detailed learning of plants and their properties
must be extremely ancient. This is logical. Plants are the basis of the food piramid for all
living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the
welfare
of
people,
not
only
for
food,
but
also
for
clothing,
weapons,tools,dyes,medicines,shelter,and a great many other purpose. Tribes living

today in the jungles of the Amazon recognize literally hundreds of plants and know
many properties of each. To them botany,as such,has no name and is probably not
even recognized as a special branch of knowledge at all.
Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become the farther away we move from
direct contact with plants, and the list distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet
everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few
people will file to recognize a rose,an apple,or an orchid. When our Neolithic ancestors,
living in the Middle East about 10.000years ago, discovered that certain grasses couls
be harvested and their seeds planted for richers yields the next season, the first great
step in a new association of plants and humans was taken. Grains were discovered and
from them flowed the marvel of agriculture : cultivated crops. From then on, humans
would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather
than getting a little here and a little their from many varieties that grew wild- and the
acculumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience and intimacy
with plants in the wile would begin to fade away.
46. Which of the following assumptions about early humans expressed in the
passage?
a. they probably had extensive knowledge of plants
b. they divided knowledge into well-defined fields
c. they did not enjoy the study of botany
d. they placed great importance on ownership of property
e. they placed most important the study
47. The word peculiar in line 1 is closest in meaning to ...
a. Clear
b. Large
c. Unusual
d. Important
e. Trust
48. What does the comment this is logical in lines 5-6 mean?
a. there is no clear way to determine the extent of our ancestors knowledge
of plants
b. it is not suprising that early humans had a detailed knowldege of plants
c. it is reasonable to assume that our ancestors behaved very much like
people in preindustrial societies
d. human knowledge of plants is well organized and very detailed.

e. Knowledge is very important well organized


49. The phrase properties of each in line 10 refers to each..
a. Tribe
b. Hundred
c. Plant
d. Purpose
e. Elements
50. According to the passage,why has general knowledge of botany declined?
a. People no lorger value plants as a useful resource
b. Botany is not recognized as a special branch of science
c. Research is unable to keep up with the increasing number of plants
d. Direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased
e. Botany was recognized as a special resource
