TEXT 5 (QUESTIONS 21-23)
Charles Robert Darwin was born in Shrewsbury,
England, on February 12, 1809. He came from a wealthy
family and never had to work. He studied medicine and
theology. In 1831 he graduated from University of
Cambridge with a degree of theology.
He began a career as a scientist quite by chance. On
December 27,1831, 22 years old Charles Darwin joined
the crew of the HMS Beagle as a naturalist.The five years
expedition collected hydrographic, geologic, and
meteorologic data from South America and many other
regions around the world. Darwin's own observation on
this voyage led to his theory of natural selection.
Charles Darwin was greatly influenced by the geologist
Adam Sedgwick and naturalist John Henslow in his
development of the theory of natural selection, which
was to become the foundation concept supporting the
theory of evolution. Darwin's theory holds that
environmental effects lead to varying degrees of
reproductive success in individuals and groups of
organisms. Natural selection tends to promote adaptation
in organisms when necessary for survival. This
revolutionary theory was published in 1859 in Darwin's
now famous On the Origin of Species by Means of
Natural Selection.

TEXT 6 (QUESTIONS 30-32)
A natural disaster is a terrible accident, e.g. a great flood,
a big fire or an earthquake. It usually causes great
suffering and loss of a large sum of money. The
casualties are injured or died. Some people are homeless
and need medical care.

Floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes, or streams

overflow their banks and pour onto the surrounding land.
Floods are caused by many different things. Often heavy
rainstorms that last for a brief can cause a flood. But not
all heavy storms are followed by flooding. If the
surrounding land is flat and can absorb the water, no
flooding will occur. If, however, the land is hard and
rocky, heavy rain cannot be absorbed. Where the banks
are low, a river may overflow and flood adjacent
lowland.
In many part of the world flood are caused by tropical
storms called hurricanes or typhoons. They bring
destructive winds of high speed, torrents of rain, and
flooding. When a flood occurs, the destruction to
surrounding land can be severe. Whole villages and
towns are sometimes swept away by water pouring
swiftly over the land. Railroad track blocked and
uprooted from their beds. Highways are washed away.
When a building caught fire, the firemen pitched in to
help battle the blaze. Before the pumps were invented,
people formed bucket brigades to fight fires. Standing
side by side, they formed a human chain from the fire to
nearby well or river. They passed buckets of water from
to hand to be poured on the flames.
The damage of the fire did depend a great deal on where
it happened. In the country or a small village, only a
single house might burn down. But in crowded cities, fire
often destroyed whole blocks and neighborhoods before
being controlled.
