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 sister”—corn, 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.

Marianne Moore (1887-1972) once said that her writting could be called poetry only because there was no other name for it. Indeed her poems appear to be extremely compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the page. Her subjects were varied: animals, labores, artist, and the craft of poetry. From her general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful. She included these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks and sometimes identified in footnotes. Of this practice, she wrote, “ ‘why the many quotation marks?’ I am asked. . . when a thing has been said so well that it could not be said better, why paraphrase it?Hence my writting is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a kind of collection of flies in amber.” Close observation and consentration on detail are the methods of her poetry.

Marianne Moore grew up in kirkwood, Missouri, near St. Louis. After graduation from Bryn Mawr College in 1909, she taught commercial subjects at the Indian school in Carlisle, Pennsylvannia. Later she became a librarian in New York City. During the 1920’s she was editor of The Dial, an importan literary magazine of the period. She lived quietly all her life, mostly in Brooklyn, New York. She spent a lot of time at the Bronx Zoo, fascinated by animals. Her admiration of the Brooklyn Dodgers – before the team moved to Los Angeles- was widely known.

Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends associeted with the imagist movement. From that time on her poetry has been read with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers. In 1952 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems. She wrote that she did not write poetry “for money or fame. To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine ways. One writes because one has a burning desire to objectivy what it is indispensable to one’s happiness to express...”

Questions 23-30
What makes it rain?Rain falls from clouds the same reason anything falls to Earth. The Earth’s gravity pulls it. But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystals. Why doesn’t 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”.

23. What is the main topic of the passage?
(A) the mechanics of rain
B the weather patterns of North America
C how Earth’s gravity affects agriculture
D types of clouds.

24. The word “ minute “ in line 4 is closest in meaning to which of the following?

(B) Tiny
C Slow
D Steady
25. The word “ motion “ in line 5 closest in meaning to..

B Change
(C) Movement

26. Ice crystals do not immediately fall to Earth because,
(A) ~ they are kept aloft by air currents
B they combine with other chemicals in the atmosphere
C most of them evaporate
D their electrical charges draw them away from the earth.

27. The word “ random “in line 7 is closest in meaning to..
(A) Unpredictable
B Perplexing
C Independent
D abnormal

28. what can be inferred about drops of water larger than 0,008 inch in diameter?
A they never occur
B they are not affected by the force of gravity
(C) in still air they would fall to earth.
D in moving air they fall at a speed of thirty-two miles per hour.

29. how much bigger drop than a cloud droplet?
A 200 times bigger

B the growth of droplest
C the effect of gravity on precipitition
D the movement of dust particles in the sunlight
Questions 31-40
People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy – one plate, one knife,one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are capable of nothing that they have placed five knives, spoons, and forks on the table and, a bit later, that this amounts to fivteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction. It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a desert island at birth and retrevied seven years later, he or she could enter a second – grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjusment.
Of course, the truth is not so simple. This century, the work of cognitive psychologists has illuminated the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they slowly grasped-or, as the case might be, bumped into-concept that adults take for granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as water pours from q short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have since demonstrated that young children asked to count the pencils in a pile, readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the rudiments if mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers- the idea of oneness, a twoness, a threeness taht applies to any class of objects and is a prerequisite for doing anything more mathematically demanding than setting a table- is itself from innate.

31. what does the passage mainly discuss?
A trends in teaching mathematics to children.
B the use of mathematics in child psychology
(C) the development mathematical ability in children
D the fundamental concepts of mathematic that children must learn.
32. it can be inferred from the passage that children normally learn simple counting?
(A) soon after they learn to talk
B by looking at the clock
C when they begin to be mathematically mature
D after they reach second grade in school.
33. the word “ illuminated “ in line 11 is closests in meaning to..
A illustrated
B accepted
(C) clarified
D lighted
34. the author implies that most small children believe that the quantity of water changes when it is transfered to a container of a different..
A color
B quality
C weight
(D) shape
35. According to the passage , when small children were asked to count a pile of red and blue pencils they..
(A) counted the number of pencils of each color.
B guessed at the total number of pencils.
C counted only the pencils of their favorite color.
D subtracted the number of red pencil from the number of blue pencils.
36. the word “ they “ in line 17 refers to
A mathematicians
B children
C pencils
(D) studies
37. the word “ prerequisite “ in line 19 is closest in meanin g to..
(A) reason
B theory
C requirement
D technique
38. the word “itself “ in line 20 refers to ..
A the total
(B) the concept abstract numbers
C any class of objects
D setting a table
39. with which of the following statements would the author be LEAST likely to agree?
A children naturally and easily learn mathematics.
(B) children learn to add before they learn to subtract
C most people follow the same pattern of mathematical development
D mathematical development is subtle and gradual.
40. where in the passage does the author give an example of a hypothetical experiment?
(A) lines 3-6
B lines 7-9
C lines 11-14
D lines 17-20
Questions 41-50
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.

41. 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
42. the word “ peculiar” in line 1 is closest in meaning to ...
A clear
B large
(C) unusual
D important
43. 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.

44. the phrase “properties of each” in line 10 refers to each..
A tribe
B hundred
(C) plant
D purpose

45. 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

46. in line 15, what is the author’s purpose in mentioning a rose,an apple,or an orchid”?
A to make the passage more poetic
