How do Seasons Happen?

Seasons come to us regularly. We have probably notice that it gets warmer in summer or dry season
while it get colder in the winter or wet season. However do we know how these seasons change?

Season happen and change every year. This happens because the Earth tits back and forth as it goes
around the Sun. During the summer, the Earth tits toward the sun. it makes half of the Earth hotter.
This condition is what we call summer. During the other half of the year, the Earth tilts away from the
Sun. As a result, it makes that half of the Earth cooler. This cool condition is then what we call winter.

The different parts of the world have the same season at different times. In the northern half of the
world, winter happens during the months of December, January, and Febuary. The regions are such
North America and Europe. In the other land, the southern half of the world have winter during the
months of June, July, and August. The regions are like South America and Australia. How does this
difference happen? The same season happens at different times because the top and bottom halves
of the Earth tilt away from the Sun at different times.

The following text is for questions 37 to 40.

Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to built up new cells and replace
the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substances that can be
carried in the blood to the places where they are needed. This process is called digestion.

The first digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by
the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains
digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.

From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach. Here, the
food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then the food
enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and
moving the food onwards.

In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch
projections from the intestine walls) and passed into the bloodstream.

37. What is the text about?

A. The digestive system

B. The digestive juice

C. The method of the digestive system

D. The process of intestine work

E. The food substances


38. How can we swallow the food easily?

A. The food changes into acids absorbed by the villi.

B. The food must be digested first through the process.

C. The food is directly swallowed through esophagus into the stomach.

D. The food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach.

E. The food we take must be changed into substances carried in the blood to the places.

39. From the text above, we imply that ….

A. a good process of digestive system will help our body becoming healthier.

B. no one concerned with the process of digestive system for their health.

C. the digestive system is needed if we are eating the food instantly.

D. every body must conduct the processes of digestive system well.

E. the better we digest the food we eat, the healthier we will be.

40. “Human body is made up of countless millions of cells.” (Paragraph 1)

The underlined phrase means ….

A. produced

B. managed

C. arranged

D. completed

E. constructed

This text is for questions 11 to 14.

Biodiesel is a clean burning substitute for petroleum based diesel fuel. Biodiesel is made of vegetable
oil.

To make or manufacture Biodiesel, you must first start with raw materials. The raw materials needed
in the production of Biodiesel are a small amount of methanol and a ready supply of vegetable
product. One of the most common vegetables used in the production of Biodiesel is corn, although
depending on the geographic location of the manufacturing facility many other plants are used as well
(rapeseed, soybeans, flaxseed, etc.). The first step is to use the raw vegetable product to make
vegetable oil. Vegetable oil by itself will not be what you need to power a car, from here it has to be
processed into Biodiesel.

The process for converting vegetable oil into Biodiesel is sometimes called ester interchange. To
complete this process the vegetable oil has to be combined with a smaller amount of methanol and
then put in the presence of a small quantity of an alkaline catalyst (for example, 5% to 1% sodium
hydroxide). Vegetable oil is made up of so-called triglycerides, which is a compound of the trivalent
alcohol glycerin with three fatty acids. The goal of ester interchange is to separate the glycerin
molecule from the three fatty acids and replace it with three methanol molecules. This process then
yields roughly 90% Biodiesel and 10% of a glycerin byproduct. The glycerin byproduct can be used in a
number of other chemical processes for different industries.

11. What is the text about?

A. The process of making Biodiesel.

B. The use of the Biodiesel.

C. The advantage of using the Biodiesel.

D. The benefit of producing the Biodiesel.

E. The development of the Biodiesel product.

12. What are interchanged in the process of ester interchange?

A. The three fatty acids with the glycerin molecules.

B. The glycerin molecule with three methanol molecules.

C. Methanol with the three fatty acids.

D. Vegetable oil with methanol

E. Methanol and alkaline catalyst.

13. According to the text, one of the advantages in using biodiesel is…

A. it is cheap.

B. it only uses vegetable oil.

C. it uses replaceable materials.

D. it can be done in small industry.

E. it gives less pollution than petroleum.

14. “The process for converting vegetable oil…”(Paragraph 3)

The underline word is closest in meaning to…

A. Producing

B. Separating

C. Attaching

D. Processing

E. Changing
