Question 31-34
A : Come in Jack. Are you any better today?
B : Not really. I still feel terrible.
A : I just got your tests back from your first visit the other day, and it looks like you have a
virus. There aren’t any signs of bacterial infection. Your lungs are clear, so it’s not
pneumonia. You just need to get lots of rest and let your body recover.
B : Can you give me antibiotics or something to fight it?
A : I’m afraid antibiotics only work against bacteria. A virus is quite another type of infection.
We’ve seen several cases like this recently. The incubation period of the virus is about
four days, followed by three to six days of fever and general cold symptoms. Then, if the
person takes care of himself, he gets better.

16
B : Jeez. I guess I don’t have any choice but to take it easy.
A : Get lots of rest- that’s number one. And drink plenty of fluids. I’m going to write you out a
prescription for some regular cold medication-antihistamines, decongestants, that kind of
thing.
B : Thanks a lot, Doctor Brandon.

W : How’s your paper coming? M
: Well, it’s really going slowly. I thought I had all the books I needed but then when the
library closed, of course I discovered there were a few more I should have. Still, I’m
making progress. How about you?
W : I almost have a first draft finished. It’ really rough, though. It’ll take a lot of revision, and I’m
really afraid that when I finally turn it into my advisor, he’ll want me to redo it.
M : At least we’ve got all our course work out of the way.
W : Say Patrick, what are you going to do when you finally get a degree?
M : I’d like to look around for a teaching job. I heard there might be an opening at
Central High next fall. Do you have any plans?

I was a high school student.

Questions 39-42
Most people are not aware that there was a real-life Uncle Sam. This symbol of the United
States in striped pants and top hat was a meat packer and politician from upstate New York who
came to be known as Uncle Sam as the result of a joke. The proof of Uncle Sam’s existence was
unearthed only a quarter of a century ago, when someone found the evidence in the yellowed
pages of a newspaper printed in 1830.
Uncle Sam was Samuel Wilson. He was born in Massachusetts in 1766. At age eight he
served as a drummer boy in the Revolutionary War, and later joined the army as a soldier in that
war. After the war he moved to Troy, New York, where he opened a meat-packing company.
Because of his friendly nature, he was known by the townspeople as Uncle Sam. During the War
of 1812, government troops were stationed near Troy, and Wilson had the contract to provide
them with meat. The crates of meat that were for the military he marked with the letters U.S.,
though this abbreviation for the country was not commonly used at the time. When government
inspectors saw the letters they asked what they meant. A worker at the plant joked that the letters
must represent the initials of his employer’s name, Uncle Sam. Soon soldiers began to refer to all
military rations as supplies from Uncle Sam, and they even saw themselves as Uncle Sam’s men.
39. Where was Samuel Wilson born?
40. What did Wilson intend for the letters U.S. to mean when he stamped them on the
crates of meat?
41. When did the name Uncle Sam become associated with the military?
42. What is not true of Samuel Wilson?

Questions 43-46
Good afternoon students. Today I’m going to continue my discussion of non-infectious
disease. When you become nurses-and I hope some of you won’t stop there- you will be the
primary care-givers in your hospital or clinic. And even though it’s not supposed to be part of your

18
job, you may be able to help diagnose disease and save some lives. So listen carefully. At
present, about two-thirds of all people seeking medical treatment for cancer already have distant
metastases -meaning cancer has spread elsewhere in their bodies. This is because cancer is still
seldom detected in its early stages. People rarely come in for tests before they experience
discomfort, and by the time they experience discomfort it’s too late- the cancer may be well along
in its development and usually has spread beyond its point of origin. Occasionally, of course,
cancer is detected during treatment of other disease or routine screening, but the big problem is
still that we don’t get diagnosis early enough. If, as nurses, you are able to keep your eyes open
for symptoms in patients - or in friends - that may be cancer-related, you may be helping
someone in a way that they will be very grateful for.
43. What is the main topic of this talk?
44. What does the speaker say about the principle problem in diagnosing cancer?
45. Who is the audience for this talk?
46. What does the speaker ask the listeners to do?
Questions 47-50
Just how do our eyes rate as optical instruments? According to experts, the human eye
is a nearly perfect device, sensitive enough to respond to a single light particle, or photon. When it
hits the retina, the photon’s tiny amount of energy must be amplified many times before it can
register in the brain. This electrical amplification is accomplished by retinal cells. These cells react
to light by opening to allow electrically charged sodium ions to enter. This electrical current passes
from cell to cell until it stimulates the optic nerve, which then sends a message to the brain. The
dimmer the image you are trying to see, the more sodium ions are needed. This explains why your
eyes must adjust when you move from a bright room into the dark one. It takes a few moments for
your eyes to accumulate enough sodium ions to activate the optic nerve.
47. What is the main topic of this talk?
48. According to the experts, how do our eyes rate as optical instruments?
49. What role do sodium ions play in the eye?
50. Why do our eyes need time to adjust when we enter a dark room?

Oceanography

In the nineteenth century, oceanography benefited from the new


desire to study phenomena on a global scale. Many scientists collected
information on the chemical composition, temperature, and pressure of
the ocean at various depths and in different regions. The difficulty of
Line 5 gathering information about the ocean depths was immense. At first it
was believed that the temperatures in the depths never fell below 4
degrees Celsius, until it was shown that the figures were distorted by the
effect of pressures on the thermometers. There was intensive study of
tides and ocean currents, and a number of physicists examined the forces Line
10 responsible for the movements of the water. For example, James Rennell
provided the first accurate map of the currents in the Atlantic Ocean, and
the United States Coast Survey made extensive studies of the Gulf
Stream. The zoologist Edward Forbes argued that no life existed below a
depth of 300 fathoms (about 600 meters), a view widely accepted until Line
15 disproved by the voyage of the British research vessel HMS Challenger
(1872-1876).

The HMS Challenger expedition provided valuable information about


the seabed, including the discovery of manganese nodules that are now
being seen as a potentially valuable source of minerals. The first detailed
Line 20 map of the seabed was provided for the Atlantic by the American
geographer Matthew F. Maury. He devised new techniques for measuring
ocean depths, and his work proved of great value in laying the first
transatlantic telegraph cables. He also studied global wind patterns and
was able to provide sailors with guides that significantly reduced the time
Line 25 taken on many routes. Some oceanographers believed that the winds

54
were responsible for producing ocean currents such as the Gulf Stream,
but Maury disagreed. He argued that they were produced by changes in
the density of seawater due to temperature, which set up systems of
movement between warm and cool regions of the world. Maury believed Line
30 that the circulation of a warm current would produce ice-free sea around
the North Pole, a claim not disproved until Fridtjof Nansen allowed his
vessel The Fram to be carried to within a few degrees of the pole in the
years 1893-1896.

Baltimore was settled by the British in 1661, and flourished initially as a busy tobacco port.
Maryland was at that time on a par with Virginia where tobacco farming was concerned, and the
area surrounding Baltimore abounded with small tobacco farm as well as a handful of larger
plantations. The relatively warm and frost-free climate of Maryland, along with its fertile growing
5 regions such as Piedmont, suited tobacco farming perfectly. Furthermore, high prices for the
commodity did nothing to discourage farmers from cultivating the lucrative crop.

As is the case with the majority of port towns, Baltimore’s shipbuilding industry also grew
rapidly, Indeed, the Baltimore Clipper, a fast-sailing ship, is still renowned in shipbuilding circles.
Although the origins of the Baltimore Clipper are fairly obscure, it would be reasonable to assume
10 that the ships were customarily built in the port itself. What is clear is that the clipper was
internationally respected as a high-performance sailing ship. It also had the dubious honor of
being favored by pirates and smugglers alike.

During the 18th century, Baltimore experienced something of a development explosion due
to the wheat growing taking place around Pennsylvania and Maryland. This activity generated a
15 huge amount of income, and cities in the region, particularly Baltimore and Philadelphia,
benefited greatly. The market for the crop appeared infinite, and in order to meet the huge
demand, mills sprang up all over Baltimore. Mill owners contributed to the booming economy by
building warehouses and offices. The advertising industry also profited from the intense
competition between merchants of different towns.

20 The wheat milling industry, in fact, turned Baltimore into the economically diverse city that it
is today. Yet, the city’s present industries reflect two centuries’ worth of development.

The Great Plains of North America cover about a million square miles. The Plains’ immense
size and few natural barriers create almost inconceivable space that seems to reach in all
directions. Persistent winds sweeping through this vastness meet little resistance.

Coping with the extremes of this environment was a skill that the Native Americans commonly
5 called “Plains Indians” perfected, and it was only during usually bitter winters, or when an
accident of fate created a dangerous situation, that there was any real threat to the survival of
their nomadic communities. In a sheltered wooded valley with the teepees tucked well back into
a grove of cottonwoods and banked high with brush, a Plains Indian camp was secure against all
but the most severe winter storms.

10 Since families were usually too small to offer adequate protection and tribes too large to be
supported by the conditions of Plains’ environment, the band was the basic unit to which a
person belonged. It was a social entity consisting of a series of families united both politically and
economically under the leadership of a chief and a council; it averaged about three hundred
members. The security offered by the band was of essential economic importance in winter when
15 unpredictable and often extremely harsh weather could make it impossible to hunt or travel.

The children of the Plains tribes were encouraged to follow the moral values that emphasized
respect for tribal rules and elders and to avoid greed, egotism, and irresponsibility. The young
men were taught that it was their duty to provide food and to protect the community, while
young women were instructed to uphold a virtuous life of service to their parents, their future
20 husbands, their children, and their tribe.

When the early European immigrants arrived in North America in the late 16 th century,
they brought their dolls with them. It was not until 1858, however, that the first original North
American doll was patented by Ludwig Greiner, a German-born toy-maker in Philadelphia. By
1862, several designers had developed dolls that could walk and say simple words or phrases,
5 such as “mama” or “papa”. The next two decades saw a flurry of activity by doll-makers to try
to get them to perform actions typical of human children, like nursing, swimming or
consuming food. Even the famous inventor Thomas Edison became involved. In the early
1880’s, he succeeded in reducing the size of the record player he had invented so one could
fit inside the body of a doll, making it able to speak. Other patents were issued for dolls that
10 could wave their hands or walk.
During the first half of the 20th century, the emphasis among doll-makers was on
developing new types of materials for the construction of dolls. Consumers demanded
durability and realism, both in form and feel. Dolls modeled after newborn babies were
popular in the 1920’s, and in the 1930’s the rising popularity of motion pictures led to the
15 creation of portrait dolls, dolls made to resemble well-known people, especially movie stars.
The late 1940’s represented a watershed in the history of dolls. With the development of
modern plastics, notably vinyl, the degree of realism doll manufactures could attain increased
dramatically. The close of the 1950’s saw the introduction of the Barbie doll. Unlike the
fashion dolls of the previous century, these dolls were first and foremost meant to be played
20 with, rather than being intended primarily as way of displaying clothing fashions.

Bacteria are among the smallest of living creatures and their identification is often
difficult. Among the kinds of information used for their classification are their size, shape, and
appearance, the structure of their bacterial “ colonies” and the chemical changes they
undergo as they multiply. Many kinds of bacteria that have been identified have been studied
5 very little; hundreds of other kinds wait to be discovered.

Although bacteria are popularly believed to be disease- causing, they are in reality
essential to life on earth. Soil, air, and even water are to some extent “produced” by bacteria.
In practical terms, because bacteria often use the same vitamins as human beings or animals,
they are valuable aids in the laboratory. For instance, the amount of vitamin in a given
10 solution can be measured, under carefully controlled conditions, by observing the
multiplication of a particular kind of bacterium. In many instances, a few dozen test tubes of
growing bacteria can measure in several days what would require many weeks and hundreds
of animals to accomplish.

To grow bacteria one must use a “culture medium”. This is a food prepared usually in
15 liquid form. Bacteria grow on the surface of the culture medium and spread into colonies that
can be easily seen under a microscope. The foods provided for bacterial colonies vary
depending on the species. Some bacteria grow best on powdered sulfur and other inorganic
substances. Other kinds thrive on sugars, amino acids, or vitamins. There is practically no limit
to the varieties of food that support bacteria.

Bird Molting
Molting is one of the most involved processes of a bird’s annual life cycle.

Notwithstanding preening and constant care, the marvelously intricate structure of a bird’s

feather inevitably wears out. All adult birds molt their feathers at least once a year, and

Line upon close observation, one can recognize the frayed, ragged appearance of feathers that

(5) are nearing the end of their useful life. Two distinct processes are involved in molting.

The first step is when the old, worn feather is dropped, or shed. The second is when a new

feather grows in its place. When each feather has been shed and replaced, then the molt

can be said to be complete. This, however, is an abstraction that often does not happen:

incomplete, overlapping, and arrested molts are quite common.

(10) Molt requires that a bird find and process enough protein to rebuild approximately

one-third of its body weight. It is not surprising that a bird in heavy molt often seems

listless and unwell. But far from being random, molt is controlled by strong evolutionary

forces that have established an optimal time and duration. Generally, molt occurs at the

time of least stress on the bird. Many songbirds, for instance, molt in late summer, when

(15) the hard work of breeding is done but the weather is still warm and food still plentiful.

This is why the woods in late summer often seem so quiet, when compared with the

exuberant choruses of spring.

Molt of the flight feathers is the most highly organized part of the process. Some species,

for example, begin by dropping the outermost primary feathers on each side (to retain

(20) balance in the air) and wait until the replacement feathers are about one-third grown before

shedding the next outermost, and so on. Others always start with the innermost primary

feathers and work outward. Yet other species begin in the middle and work outward on both

weeks while the replacement feathers grow. Most ducks shed their wing feathers at once, and

remain flightless for two or three weeks while the replacement feathers grow.

Phillis Wheatley, ignored as a poet for almost two hundred years was not only a talented
writer, recognized in Europe more than in the United States, but she was also the first African
American to publish a book, the first woman writer whose publication was promoted and
nurtured by a community of women, and the first American woman author who for a while
5 earned a living by means of her writing. She was also a slave and survived the horrific “middle
passage” from Africa to North America.

Phillis Wheatley was born in West Africa, along the fertile lowlands of the Gambia River.
But when she was seven or eight, she was captured by salve traders, transported to Boston,
and on July 11, 1761, sold to John and Susanna Wheatley. Unlike most slave owners of the
10 time, the Wheatleys permitted the young girl to learn to read her new language, and soon
after, her poetic talent began to emerge. Her earliest published poem appeared when she
was fourteen and relates how two men narrowly escaped being drowned of Cape Cod in
Massachusetts. Much of her subsequent poetry also deals with mortality. Of her surviving
fifty-five poem, for instance, nineteen are elegies, poems written about herself and her
15 career.

Wheatley’s first book, simply entitled Poems, having been turned down for publication in
Boston because of her race and sex, appeared in London in 1773. The following year she was
granted her freedom, probably because a group of British women, her literary patrons, paid
for her release from slavery. In 1778 Wheatley married John Peters, a free African American
20 who managed a store and sometimes represented African Americans in the courts of law. But
neither her writing nor her husband’s work could protect their family from tragedy, and in
1784, she died after a difficult child-birth with her newborn infant in a shack on the edge of
Boston.
