Section Three: Reading Comprehension

Questions 1-9

The geology of the Earth's surface is dominated by the particular properties of

water. Present on Earth in solid, liquid, and gaseous states, water is exceptionally

reactive. It dissolves, transports, and precipitates many chemical compounds and is

constantly modifying the face of the Earth.

(5) Evaporated from the oceans, water vapor forms clouds, some of which are

transported by wind over the continents. Condensation from the clouds provides the

essential agent of continental erosion: rain. Precipitated onto the ground, the water

trickles down to form brooks, streams, and rivers, constituting what is called the

hydrographic network. This immense polarized network channels the water toward a

(10) single receptacle: an ocean. Gravity dominates this entire step in the cycle because

water tends to minimize its potential energy by running from high altitudes toward the

reference point that is sea level.

The rate at which a molecule of water passes though the cycle is not random but is

a measure of the relative size of the various reservoirs. If we define residence time as

(15) the average time for a water molecule to pass through one of the three reservoirs-

atmosphere, continent, and ocean-we see that the times are very different. A water

molecule stays, on average, eleven days in the atmosphere, one hundred years on a

continent and forty thousand years in the ocean. This last figure shows the importance

of the ocean as the principal reservoir of the hydrosphere but also the rapidity of water

(20) transport on the continents.

A vast chemical separation process takes places during the flow of water over the

continents. Soluble ions such as calcium, sodium, potassium, and some magnesium are

dissolved and transported. Insoluble ions such as aluminum, iron, and silicon stay

where they are and form the thin, fertile skin of soil on which vegetation can grow.

(25) Sometimes soils are destroyed and transported mechanically during flooding. The

erosion of the continents thus results from two closely linked and interdependent

processes, chemical erosion and mechanical erosion. Their respective interactions and

efficiency depend on different factors.

1. The word "modifying" in line 4 is closest in meaning to

(A) changing

(B) traveling

(D) destroying

2. The word "which" in line 5 refers to

(A) clouds

(B) oceans

(D) compounds

3. According to the passage, clouds are primarily formed by water

(A) precipitating onto the ground

(B) changing from a solid to a liquid state

(D) being carried by wind

4. The passage suggests that the purpose of the "hydrographic network" (line 9) is to

(A) determine the size of molecules of water

(B) prevent soil erosion caused by flooding

(D) regulate the rate of water flow from streams and rivers

5. What determines the rate at which a molecule of water moves through the cycle, as discussed in the third paragraph?

(A) The potential energy contained in water

(B) The effects of atmospheric pressure on chemical compounds

(D) The relative size of the water storage areas

6. The word "rapidity" in line 19 is closest in meaning to

(A) significance

(B) method

(D) reliability

7. The word "they" in line 24 refers to

(A) insoluble ions

(B) soluble ions

Questions 10-19

Among the species of seabirds that use the windswept cliffs of the Atlantic coast of

Canada in the summer to mate, lay eggs, and rear their young are common murres,

Atlantic puffins, black-legged kittiwakes, and northern gannets. Of all the birds on

these cliffs, the black-legged kittiwake gull is the best suited for nesting on narrow

(5) ledges. Although its nesting habits are similar to those of gulls that nest on flat ground,

there are a number of important differences related to the cliff-nesting habit.

The advantage of nesting on cliffs is the immunity it gives from foxes, which

cannot scale the sheer rocks, and from ravens and other species of gulls, which have

difficulty in landing on narrow ledges to steal eggs. This immunity has been followed

(10) by a relaxation of the defenses, and kittiwakes do not react to predators nearly as

fiercely as do ground-nesting gulls. A colony of Bonaparte's gulls responds to the

appearance of a predatory herring gull by flying up as a group with a clamor of alarm

calls, followed by concerted mobbing, but kittiwakes dimply ignore herring gulls, since

they pose little threat to nests on cliffs. Neither do kittiwakes attempt to conceal their

(15) nest. Most gulls keep the nest area clear of droppings, and remove empty eggshells

after the chicks have hatched, so that the location of the nest is not given away.

Kittiwakes defeacate over the edge of the nest, which keeps it clean, but this practice, as

well as their tendency to leave the nest littered with eggshells, makes its location very

conspicuous.

(20) On the other hand, nesting on a narrow ledge has its own peculiar problems, and

kittiwake behavior has become adapted to overcome them. The female kittiwake sits

when mating, whereas other gulls stand, so the pair will not overbalance and fall off the

ledge. The nest is a deep cup, made of mud or seaweed, to hold the eggs safely,

compared with the shallow scrape of other gulls, and the chicks are remarkably

(25) immobile until fully grown. They do not run from their nests when approached, and if

they should come near to the cliff edge, they instinctively turn back.

10. What aspect of the kittiwake gull does the passage mainly discuss?

(A) Its defensive behavior

(B) It interactions with other gull species

(D) Its physical difference from other gull species

11. The word "rear" in line 2 is closest in meaning to

(A) visit

(B) watch

(D) raise

12. The word "scale" in line 8 is closest in meaning to

(A) climb

(B) avoid

(D) measure

13. The word "immunity" in line 9 is closest in meaning to

(A) distance

(B) transition

(D) reminder

14. Why is it difficult for ravens to steal the kittiwakes' eggs?

(A) The kittiwakes can see the ravens approaching the nest.

(B) The ravens cannot land on the narrow ledges where kittiwakes nest.

(D) The female kittiwakes rarely leave the nest.

15. The author mentions that eggshells little the nests of kittiwakes in order to

(A) demonstrate that kittiwakes are not concerned about predators

(B) prove how busy kittiwakes are in caring for their offspring

(D) illustrate kittiwakes' lack of concern for their chicks

16. According to the passage, it can be inferred that which of the following birds conceal their nest?

(A) Bonaparte's gulls

(B) Atlantic puffins

(D) Northern gannets

Questions 20-29

Throughout the nineteenth century and into the twentieth, citizens of the United

States maintained a bias against big cities. Most lived on farms and in small towns and

believed cities to be centers of corruption, crime, poverty, and moral degradation. Their

distrust was caused, in part, by a national ideology that proclaimed farming the greatest

(5) occupation and rural living superior to urban living. This attitude prevailed even as the

number of urban dwellers increased and cities became an essential feature of the

national landscape. Gradually, economic reality overcame ideology. Thousands

abandoned the precarious life on the farm for more secure and better paying jobs in the

city. But when these people migrated from the countryside, they carried their fears and

(10) suspicious with them. These new urbanities, already convinced that cities were

overwhelmed with great problems, eagerly embraced the progressive reforms that

promised to bring order out of the chaos of the city.

One of many reforms came in the area of public utilities. Water and sewerage

systems were usually operated by municipal governments, but the gas and electric

(15) networks were privately owned. Reformers fared that the privately owned utility

companies would charge exorbitant rates for these essential services and deliver them

only to people who could afford them. Some city and state governments responded by

regulating the utility companies, but a number of cities began to supply these services

themselves. Proponents of these reforms argued that public ownership and regulation

(20) would insure widespread access to these utilities and guarantee a fair price.

While some reforms focused on government and public behavior, others looked at

the cities as a whole. Civic leaders, convinced that physical environment influenced

human behavior, argued that cities should develop master plans to guide their future

growth and development. City planning was nothing new, but the rapid industrialization

(25) and urban growth of the late nineteenth century took place without any consideration

for order. Urban renewal in the twentieth century followed several courses. Some cities

introduced plans to completely rebuild the city core. Most other cities contented

themselves with zoning plans for regulating future growth. Certain parts of town were

restricted to residential use, while others were set aside for industrial or commercial

development.

20. What does the passage mainly discuss?

(A) A comparison of urban and rural life in the early twentieth century

(B) The role of government in twentiethcentury urban renewal

(D) Methods of controlling urban growth in the twentieth century

21. The word "bias" in line 2 is closest in meaning to

(A) diagonal

(B) slope

(D) prejudice

22. The first paragraph suggests that most people who lived in rural areas

(A) were suspicious of their neighbors

(B) were very proud of their lifestyle

(D) wanted to move to the cities

23. In the early twentieth century, many rural dwellers migrated to the city in order to

(A) participate in the urban reform movement

(B) seek financial security

(D) avoid crime and corruption

24.The word "embraced" in line 11 is closest in meaning to

(A) suggested

(B) overestimated

(D) welcomed

25. What concern did reformers have about privately owned utility companies?

(A) They feared the services would not be made available to all city dwellers.

(B) They believed private ownership would slow economic growth

(D) They wanted to ensure that the services would be provided to rural areas.

(B) To emphasize the economic importance of urban areas

(D) To illustrate the need for construction of new factories

Questions 30-39

By 1776 the fine art of painting as it had developed in western Europe up to this

time had been introduced into the American colonies though books and prints,

European visitors and immigrants, and traveling colonists who brought back copies

(and a few original) of old master paintings and acquaintance with European art

(5) institutions.

By the outbreak of the Revolution against British rule in 1776, the status of the

artists had already undergone change. In the mid-eighteenth century, painters had been

willing to assume such artisan-related tasks as varnishing, gilding teaching, keeping

shops, and painting wheel carriages, houses, and signs. The terminology by which

(10) artists were described at the time suggests their status: "limner" was usually applied to

the anonymous portrait painter up to the 1760's: "painter" characterized anyone who

could paint a flat surface. By the second half of the century, colonial artists who were

trained in England or educated in the classics rejected the status of laborer and thought

of themselves as artists. Some colonial urban portraitists, such as John Singleton Copley,

(15) Benjamin West, and Charles Wilson Peale, consorted with affluent patrons. Although

subject to fluctuations in their economic status, all three enjoyed sufficient patronage to

allow them to maintain an image of themselves as professional artists, an image

indicated by their custom of signing their paintings. A few art collectors James

Bowdoin III of Boston, William Byrd of Virginian, and the Aliens and Hamiltons of

(20) Philadelphia introduced European art traditions to those colonists privileged to visit

their galleries, especially aspiring artists, and established in their respective

communities the idea of the value of art and the need for institutions devoted to its

encouragement.

Although the colonists tended to favor portraits, they also accepted landscapes,

(25) historical works, and political engravings as appropriate artistic subjects. With the

coming of independence from the British Crown, a sufficient number of artists and their

works were available to serve nationalistic purposes. The achievements of the colonial

artists, particularly those of Copley, West, and Peale, lent credence to the boast that the

new nation was capable of encouraging genius and that political liberty was congenial

to the development of taste-a necessary step before art could assume an important role

in the new republic.

Questions 40-50

Railroads reshaped the North American environment and reoriented North

American behavior. "In a quarter of a century", claimed the Omaha Daily Republican in

1883, "they have made the people of the United States homogeneous, breaking through

the peculiarities and provincialisms which marked separate and unmingling sections."

(5) The railroad simultaneously stripped the landscape of the natural resources, made

velocity of transport and economy of scale necessary parts of industrial production, and

carried consumer goods to households; it dispatched immigrants to unsettled places,

drew emigrants away from farms and villages to cities, and sent men and guns to battle.

It standardized time and travel, seeking to annihilate distance and space by allowing

(10) movement at any time and in any season or type of weather. In its grand and impressive

terminals and stations, architects recreated historic Roman temples and public baths,

French chateaus and Italian bell towers-edifices that people used as stages for many of

everyday life's high emotions: meeting and parting, waiting and worrying, planning

new starts or coming home.

(15) Passenger terminals, like the luxury express trains that hurled people over spots,

spotlight the romance of railroading. (The twentieth-Century Limited sped between

Chicago and New York in twenty hours by 1915). Equally important to everyday life

were the slow freight trans chugging through industrial zones, the morning and

evening commuter locals shuttling back ions and urban terminals, and the incessant

(20) comings and goings that occurred in the classifications, or switching, yards. Moreover,

in addition to its being a transportation pathway equipped with a mammoth physical

plant of tracks signals, crossings, bridges, and junctions, plus telegraph and telephone

lines the railroad nurtured factory complexes, coat piles, warehouses, and generating

stations, forming along its right-of-way what has aptly been called "the metropolitan

(25) corridor" of the American landscape.
