answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35.
When we accept the evidence of our unaided eyes and describe the Sun as a yellow star, we have summed
up the most important single fact about it-at this moment in time.
It appears probably, however, that sunlight will be the color we know for only a negligibly small part of
the Sun's history. Stars, like individuals, age and change. As we look out into space, we see around us stars at
all stages of evolution. There are faint blood-red dwarfs so cool that their surface temperature is a mere 4,000
degrees Fahrenheit, there are searing ghosts blazing at 100,000 degrees Fahrenheit and almost too hot to be
seen, for the great part of their radiation is in the invisible ultraviolet range. Obviously, the "daylight"
produced by any star depends on its temperature; today(and for ages to come) our Sun is at about 10,000

degrees Fahrenheit, and this means that most of the Sun's light is concentrated in the yellow band of the
spectrum, falling slowly in intensity toward both the longer and shorter light waves.
That yellow "hump" will shift as the Sun evolves, and the light of day will change accordingly. It is natural
to assume that as the Sun grows older, and uses up its hydrogen fuel-which it is now doing at the spanking
rate of half a billion tons a second- it will become steadily colder and redder.
(Adapted from A collection of TOEFL Reading comprehension 4)

A. Faint dwarf stars B. The evolutionary cycle of the Sun
C. The Sun's fuel problem D. The dangers of invisible radiation
Question 32. The word “searing” in the 2nd paragraph is CLOSEST in meaning to_____
A. so strong B. far C. negligible D. unaided
Question 33. What does the word "it" in the last paragraph refer to_____ ?
A. yellow "hump" B. day C. Sun D. hydrogen fuel
Question 34. Why are very hot stars referred to as "ghosts"?
A. They are short- lived. B. They are mysterious.
C. They are frightening. D. They are nearly invisible
Question 35. Which of the following sentences is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The Sun’s history is still mysterious.
B. All the stars depend on the Sun for light.
C. The Sun is too hot to be seen by naked eyes.
D. The sun never uses up its hydrogen fuel.
Read the following and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions from 36 to 42
Modern civilization is heavily dependent on energy. Without reliable power sources, we couldn’t operate
machines, use transportation, communicate via the Internet, or do many other things. Although everyone
recognizes the importance of energy, deciding what kind of energy the world should use in the future is not a
simple task. The two leading candidates for this role are green energy and nuclear energy.
Currently, most of the energy we use is derived from fossil fuels. Although this energy source has got us
this far, there are several problems with it. For starters, it is a finite resource which is quickly running out.
Some analysts have even estimated that the Earth could run out of coal and oil within the next 50 years.
Burning fossil fuels also creates large amount of pollution, which is harmful to the environment. Although
fossil fuels still provide the majority of our power, governments are seeking better energy sources to use
going forward.
Green energy is one option that is becoming increasingly attractive. It includes technologies such as solar,
wind, and hydro power. These are seen as clean sources of energy because they cause very little pollution. In
addition, they are completely renewable, so there is no danger that it will run out. The major disadvantage
with green energy sources is that they are not cheap.
The other alternative is nuclear power. Like green energy, it is also a renewable source of power that will
not run out, and it also doesn’t produce air pollution. In addition, nuclear power is more reliable than green
energy, as it doesn’t depend on sunshine, rain, or wind to operate. The major issues with nuclear power are
safety concerns and nuclear waste. Nuclear power plants create a considerable amount of nuclear waste which
is extremely hazardous to people’s health. If they happen to have a meltdown, this could destroy the
surrounding area for years to come.
The recent nuclear disaster in Fukushima, Japan brought this reality into the spotlight once again. In
response, Germany announced it would close down eight of its nuclear plants immediately, and close the rest
by 2022. Meanwhile, other nations refuse to give up on nuclear power, stating that these disasters are rare.
The debate of whether to use green or nuclear power will likely continue for some time. In the end, it is quite
possible that both energy sources will be used to fuel our planet.
(Adapted from Intensive Reading Comprehension Skills)
Question 36. What is the main focus of the passage?
A. Why energy is important
B. The energy sources used in the past
C. Comparing future energy solutions
D. Discussing how disasters affect power sources
Question 37. The word “finite” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.
