(I) The global ocean is a huge body of salt water thatsurrounds the continents and covers almost three-fourths of Earths surface.(II) It is a single,continuous body of water.(III) Not surprisingly,aquatic life zones are different in almost all respectsfrom terrestrial ecosystems.(IV) Yet, geographershave divided it into four sections (the Pasific, Atlantic,Indian, and Arctic oceans), separated by thecontinents.(V) The Pasific Ocean is the largest byfar: it covers one-third of Earths surface and containsmore than half of Earths water.


60. (I) On average, 30% of the solar radiation that falls onEarth is immediately reflected away by clouds and

surfaces, especially snow, ice, and ocean.(II) Treesof tropical rain forests are usually evergreen floweringplants.(III) The remaining 70% is absorbed by Earthand runs the water cycle, drives winds and oceancurrents, powers photosynthesis, and warms theplanet.(IV) Ultimately, however, all of this energy islost by the continual radiation of long-wave infraredenergy into space.(V) In fact, if heat gains from solarradiation were not balanced by losses, the Earthwould heat up or cool down.


61. (I)Among the fundamental themes of Greek tragedywere justice, law, and the conflicting demands ofpiety and obligation that drove a heroic man orwoman to destruction.(II) They were mostly derivedfrom Homer.(III) Most tragedies were thedramatization of well-known myths and legends fromthe past.(IV) But decidedly contemporary issues andevents were also represented in some tragedies.(V) Epic and lyric poetry were already well-established Greek literary forms when the fifthcentury B.C. began.


62. (I) Life in Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenthcenturies was largely shaped by the combined effectsof war, trade, and a steadily growing population.(II) Especially the practice of free trade led to theestablishment of overseas colonies and opened upnew markets for European industry.(III)Additionally,agricultural productivity increased, making it possiblefor Europe to feed a population that had now reachedunprecedented levels.(IV) The dominant artisticschool of southern Europe from about 1600 until the

early 1700s was that of the Baroque, a school notonly of painting but of sculpture and architecture.(V) Moreover, population growth in turn enabledEuropean governments to wage more frequent warsand employ larger and larger armies.


63. (I) Modern historians of science consider Newtons

law of universal gravitation to be the greatestcontribution to physics ever made by a single person.(II) The praise for his discovery was just as great inNewtons own time.(III) In the eyes of hiscontemporaries he was a national hero.(IV) Duringthe seventeenth century, the most innovativescientific work came out of the universities.(V) Hewas also celebrated across Europe, particularly inFrance.

In antiquity, prior to the third century B.C., physics

had been a branch of philosophy. It was made aseparate, experimental science by Archimedes ofSyracuse, who lived between 287 and 212 B.C.. Henot only discovered the law of floating objects, orspecific gravity, but also formulated with scientificexactness the principles of the lever, the pulley, andthe screw. Among his memorable inventions were thecompound pulley and the screw propeller for ships.Although he has been considered the greatesttechnical genius of antiquity, in fact he preferred todevote himself to pure scientific research. Traditionrelates that he discovered Archimedes principle,that is, specific gravity, while pondering possibletheories in his bath; when he reached his stunning

The Romans were descended from a cluster ofpeoples who had crossed the Alps into Italy duringthe second millenium B.C. and spoke a variety ofIndo-European dialects. Recent archaeologicalresearch has pushed the origins of the city of Romeback to at least the tenth century B.C., severalcenturies earlier than the traditional date 753 B.C.,which the Romans themselves considered their citysfoundation year. Romes strategic location along theTiber River brought it many different advantages.Trading ships could navigate the Tiber as far asRome, but no farther; the city could thus serve as aport without being threatened by attack from the sea.Romes famous hills increased the defensibility of thesite. In other words, as a city, Rome was situated at

a junction across the Tiber, making it a major landand river crossroads.

When air pollution, including acid rain, is combinedwith other environmental stresses, such as low wintertemperatures, prolonged droughts, insects, andbacterial, fungal, and viral diseases, it can causeplants to decline and die. More than half of the redspruce trees in the mountains of the northern UnitedStates have died since the mid-1970s. Other treespecies, such as sugar maples, for example, are alsodying. Many still-living trees are exhibiting symptomsof forest decline, characterized by a gradualdeterioration and often eventual death. The generalsymptoms of forest decline are reduced vigour andgrowth, but some plants exhibit specific symptoms,such as yellowing of needles in conifers. Airpollutants may or may not be the primary stress that

results in forest decline, but the presence of airpollution lowers plant resistance to other stressfactors. When one or more stresses weaken a tree,then an additional stress may be enough to causedeath.

86. It is suggested in the passage that air pollutants----.

A) become very destructive for all kinds of treeswhen they turn into acid rain

B) have been the primary cause of the deteriorationof various tree species

C) can cause forest decline when they act togetherwith other environmental stresses

D) show their adverse effect on trees most clearlywhen there are prolonged droughts

E) are particularly effective on sugar maples andconifers but not other species

87. According to the passage, when the trees in aforest fail to grow properly, ----.

Government planners and social scientists frommany countries are developing a number ofstrategies to help us adapt to global warming. Forexample, what should people living in coastal areasdo? They can move inland away from the dangers ofstorm surges, although this solution has higheconomic costs. An alternative plan, which is alsoextremely expensive, is to build dikes to protectcoastal land. The Dutch, who have been doing thissort of thing for several hundred years, have offeredtheir technical expertise to several developing nationsthreatened by a rise in sea level. We also have toadapt to shifting agricultural zones. Many temperatecountries are in the process of evaluatingsemitropical crops to determine the best ones to

substitute for traditional crops if or when the climatewarms. Drought-resistant species of trees are beingdeveloped by large lumber companies now, becausethe trees planted today will be harvested manydecades later when global warming may already getmuch worse.

In England, transportation had improved a great dealduring the years before 1830, but moving heavymaterials, particularly coal, remained a problem. It istherefore significant that the first modern railway, builtin 1825 for the transportation of coal, ran from theDurham coal field of Stockton to Darlington near thecoast. Coal had traditionally been transported shortdistances via tramways, or tracks along which horsespulled coal carts. The Stockton-to-Darlington railwaywas a logical extension of a tramway, designed toanswer the transportation needs arising fromconstantly expanding industrialization. The manprimarily responsible for the design of the first steamrailway was George Stephenson, a self-educatedengineer who had not learned to read until he was

seventeen. The locomotives on the Stockton-Darlington line travelled at fifteen miles an hour, thefastest rate at which machines had yet moved goodsoverland. Soon they would move people as well,transforming transportation in the process.

96. It is emphasized in the passage that GeorgeStephenson, who designed the first steamrailway, ----.

A) developed new techniques in order to increasethe speed of locomotives

B) was one of the partners who owned the Durhamcoal field of Stockton

C) had been previously involved in the solution ofvarious other problems concerning transportation

D) had already distinguished himself by hisachievements as an engineer

E) had not received formal education to become anengineer

97. It is pointed out in the passage that the primaryaim in the contruction of the Stockton-Darlingtonrailway was to ----.

A) give George Stephenson an opportunity todemonstrate his engineering skills

B) enable people to travel more comfortably andcheaply

C) transport more goods overland so that the costscould be much lower

D) make the transportation of coal more efficient forthe industry

E) get rid of the use of horses in the transportationof heavy materials

98. According to the passage, much improvement

----.

A) was needed for an efficient use of tramways inthe transportation of all sorts of goods

B) had been achieved in transportation by 1830 inEngland

C) was not expected in the transportation of coalwhen the first railway was built in 1825
