Read each selection carefully, then choose the correct answer to each of the questions asked after the selection. pod “Thou canst not stir a flower without troubling of a star,” stated the mystical poet Francis Thompson. He exaggerated the links in the fabric of life, but his was, nonetheless, ‘a true insight into the fact that there do exist ecological relationships between living things here on earth and the movements of the heavenly bodies. Not only are earthly organisms affected by light and warmth from. the distant moon and sun, but many animals have also been shown to possess mechanisms which accurately measure the sun's position and react to the rhythm of the tides, the phases of the moon, and the motion of our planet. ‘Twice each day, at dusk and at dawn, there is a shift in the activity of the population that inhabits a community, amounting to almost a complete turnover of the species. Some kinds of plants and animals are stimulated to activity by light; other kinds retreat from it. The varying amounts of light and darkness act as triggers upon the physiology of numerous kinds of, animals and plants, signaling them to many activities. Many forms of life display fairly definite tendencies towards daytime or nighttime activity and many animals can alter their pattern in response to changing needs. In regions where game is hunted persistently, the hunted animals tend to become nocturnal, whereas the same species is diurnal in areas where man has not made deep inroads. Man, as an animal, also apparently possesses a number of built-in rhythms, and his body chemistry has been shown to operate in a rhythmic pattern. GO ON TO THE NEXT PAGE D>21. The statement "Thou canst not stir a flower without troubling of a star” ~~ means that (A)_ one should not disturb things in yp pature ) (©) plants should be treated carefully (0) some life-forms are largely unaffected by the heavenly bodies 22. Based on the selection, which of the following statements is correct? (A) Most forms of life have biological rhythms which are permanent and unchanging. (B) Reactions to the seasonal cycle are uniform in different communities. (C) Ofall the creatures in nature, man alone is independent of its revolving cycles. Selection 2 Gitanjali (1961-1977), terminally ill of cancer at 16, wrote one hundred eleven (111) poems in English, most of them about. death, Not wishing to alarm her mother, she kept her poems. It was only several months after her death that her mother, Khushi Badruddin, discovered that her daughter was India's Emily Dickinson. ~ ‘The comparison with the American poet is inevitable, since both women wrote secretly about death, nature, and God. Gitanjali likens death to an "honoured guest," as Dickinson does in "Because I Could Not Stop for Death." Gitanjali' grammatical lapses, in fact, recall those of Dickinson's. But the similarities stop there, because Gitanjali was actually facing death. Athough Jove of fe sometimes overpowers. her, Gitanjali_ ‘repeated welcomes death “with open arms." This fot mere Tesignation, ‘The poct feela that With ‘more time on earth, she may end up PS .NMAT P1_0814 having less faith in God. Dying young seems to assure salvation, The poems are indeed deeply religious; many of them are prayers, Gitanjali's parents are Sikhs, and she attended a Catholic school, but she always said her religion was love. Curiously, some of the poems speak of the poet in the third person, as though Gitanjali was looking at herself objectively. She writes “Illness too is/A gift of God/And Gitanjali accepts it/With grace and in good stride.” Perhaps, the strain had become too strong even for the brave young poct. Gitanjali means “song-offering," and the whole volume is an offering of songs to God about what it means to die so young. phe ‘pose of the author in waiting the selection is to show (A) the similarities between Dickinson's and Gitanjali's poems.

But who can claim that for the vast majority of people, these devices are anything other than agents of noise? They are not listened to; they are only heard. Modern man begins his day with radio noise to wake him up, he has a car radio or CD player to carry him to his work, continues with pipe-in music in the elevator and "on hold” on the office telephone, relaxes by the videoke at the bar, and concludes his day with television chatter. Those who cannot sleep in the silence that descends when the TV is shut off resort to machines that produce "white noise." Silence has become a vacuum which modern man abhors. It is no longer normal or good in itself. It is understood only as absence of noise. Before noise (B.N.), there were sounds distinguishable from noise, because sounds came out of silence. Silence was the background for sounds. City dwellers, awash in constant noise, become nervous in the country because the sounds of the country ~ from the crickets, birds, and animals - are made against the background of silence. There is also less tall jin the country because to interrupt the silence, one must have something to say. In the city, words are part of the general noise ~ one can say anything in order not to stop talking - and silence is always interpreted as awkwardness. There seems to be a fear that if the noise stops, the city will collapse in silence. Before the days of widespread TV, the Swiss thinker, Max Picard, offered the notion that people play the radio to make sure that they are still there. ‘This proposition neatly reverses the'old-conundrum: Ifa tree falls in @ forest, does it make-a-sound if there is no one there to hear it? This question presumes man exists and asks if sound exists without man’s hearing it. The modern form of this question, a la Picard, would reverse these PS_NMAT_P1_0814 presumptions and have modern man asking, "If there is no noise, how do I know I am really here?” Solitude and silence ake the crucibles of serious thought. To fiée them is to flee the conditions necessary for the self-examination that makes life worth living. It is to flee as well the peace that comes only from the orientation of one's life to the ultimate realities — realities that can intrude only when one is still and quiet and open to them. Tam often told that people turn on the radio and television because they are lonely. Noise is used as a tonic for loneliness. It is an acoustic drug. But loneliness is a longing for something which should not be drowned in noise. If one quietly searches for loneliness, one can begin to ask why one is lonely and for what. Loneliness lets us know that we really have nothing adequate for our deepest longing ~ not in our friends, not in our family, nor in our worldly goods or pleasures. In what then or in whom are we to find the object of our deepest desire? This is perhaps the most important question that can be asked, and it can be answered only in SILENCE. 26. What conclusion can be deduced from “the second paragraph? (A) Man is a lover of noise-producing Co js on sounds to keep “him functioning. (C) Man tikes inventions because these are signs of progress. (D) Man finds complete relaxation only when surrounded by noise: 27. As used in-the selection, what does (‘comundrum! mean?

Our defects as a people are mostly due to (A) attitudes and superstitions from our pre-Spanish past {B) ideas taught us by the Spaniards o 7 (D) our refusal to face reality Selection § Buddhism is both a philosophy and a practice. Buddhist philosophy is rich and. profound. Buddhist practice is called Tantra, a Sanskrit word meaning ‘to weave.” Buddhist philosophy reached its ultimate development in the second century A.D. No one has been able to improve much on it since then. The distinction between Buddhist philosophyand Tantra is well defined.” Buddhist philosophy can be) Gintellectualized, Tantra~cannot.—“Buddhist philosophy is a function of the rational mind, tra transcends rationality. ‘The most profound thinkers of the Indian civilization discovered that words and concepts can take them only so far. Beyond that point came the actual doing of a practice, the experience of which was ineffable. This did not prevent them from progressively refining the practice into an extremely effective and sophisticated set of techniques, but it did prevent them from being able ‘to describe the experience which the techniques produce. PS.NMAT P1814 The practice of Tantra,does not mean the end of rational thought. It means the integration of thought based on symbols into larger spectrums of awareness. ‘The development of Buddhism in India shows that a profound and penetrating intellectual quest into the ultimate nature of reality can culminate in, or at least, set the stage for, a quantum leap beyond rationality. In fact, on an individual level, this is one of the roads to enlightenment. Tibetan Buddhism calls it the Path without Form or the Practice of the Mind. The Path without Form is prescribed for the people of intellectual temperament. The science of physics is following a similar path. ‘The development of physics in the twentieth century has already transformed the consciousness of those involved with it. The study - of complementarity, the uncertainty principle, the quantum field theory, and the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics produce insights into the nature of reality very similar to those produced by the study.of Eastern philosophy. The profound physicists of this century have increasingly become aware that they are confronting thé ineffable. Max Planck, the father of quantum mechanics, wrote "Science means unresting | endeavor—> and continually progressing development toward ~an- aim which the poetic intuition may apprehend, but which the intellect can never fully grasp." We are approaching the end of sciont®.> end of science” does not mean the end of ‘unresting endeavor and —_ continually progressing development” of more and more comprehensive and useful physical theories. “The end of science" means the coming of Western civilization, in its own time and in its into the higher dimensions of human experience.
