V, Read the following passage and circle the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
In the world today, particular in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe,
recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the
environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of the
recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle."
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs,
boxes and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of
packaging: usually paper, a box and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try
to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is
to buy high-quality products. When low-quality appliances break, many customers throw them away
and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a
high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In
the same way, If a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important
message to the manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they retum them to the stores. The manufacturers of the drinks collect
bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is
saved. In some parts of the world, returning bottle for money is a common practice.i In those places,
the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned
and used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make
one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle
aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.
\ c. The bottle are filled again after being returned, collected and washed.
A. The bottle are collected, washed, returned and filled again.
74. Which area is considered one of the most industfialized?
A. Europe B. South America C. Middle East D. Asia
75. What is the topic of the passage?
A. What is involved in the recycling movement.
B. How to reduce garbage disposal.
C. How to live sensitively to the environment.
D. What people understand the term "recycle"

A geyser is the result of underground water under the combined conditions of high temperatures
and increased pressure beneath the surface of the earth. Since temperature rises appropriately one
degree F for every sixty feet under the earth's surface, and pressure increases with depth, water that
seeps down in cracks and fissures until it reaches very hot rocks in the earth's interior becomes heated
to a temperature in excess of 290 degrees F. Because of the greater pressure, it shoots out of the
surface in the form of steam and hot water. The result is a geyser.
For the most part, geysers are located in three regions of the world: New Zealand, Iceland, and
the Yellowstone National Park area of the United States" The most famous geyser in the world is Old
Faithful in Yellowstone Park. Old Faithful erupts almost every hour, rising to a height of 125 to 170
feet and expelling more than ten thousand gallons during each eruption.

A. hot rocks must rise to the surface of the earth
