Whales are the largest and most powerful creatures on earth. They live in all of the oceans of the world. They are warm-blooded. They breathe air. They give birth to live young. Baby whales drink their mother s milk. Whales are called cetaceans. Other cetaceans include dolphins and porpoises. Whales are social creatures. They travel in groups called pods or schools. They breathe through their nostrils, called blowholes. They must surface above the water to breathe. The blowhole is on top of the whales head. When whales breathe out, this vapor looks like a fountain. The blowhole is closed when the whale dives below the ocean. Some whales can stay under the water for up to an hour. Whales are mammals rather than fish, yet they live in the world s oceans rather than on land. Because of the fact that they are mammals, scientists have believed for quite some time that whales are descendants of land mammals. Some interesting evidence to support this theory has recently been found. In Egypt, fossils have been found of a forty-million-year-old whale leg, kneecap, ankle, footbones, and toes. It appears from the fossil evidence that the bones were not very strong and not very large in comparison to the size of the whale. Based on this fossil evidence, the following evolutionary path has been hypothesized. As the whale began its evolution toward the water, its legs weakened and decreased in size. Then, during its millions of years in the water, the legs slowly disappeared, leaving only the front flippers today. Question 36: What is the main idea of the passage? A: Whales have not evolved very much over the last millions of years. B: There is evidence that whales may have descended from land mammals. C: Whales are mammals and not fish. D: Numerous whale fossils have been found in the world s oceans. Question 37: The word cetaceans in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to A: large sea mammals B: very powerful creatures 5

6 C: very small fish D: large sea animals Question 38: The word they in paragraph 3 refers to A: fishes B: whales C: mammals D: scientists Question 39: All of the following are true about whales, EXCEPT that. A: they are mammals B: they may have come from land C: they live in ocean D: they are fish Question 40: Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the whale fossils in the passage? A: They are forty million years old. B: They support the theory that the whales came from land. C: They were found in Egypt. D: They showed that ancient whales had flippers. Question 41: The word evolution in the last paragraph means. A: digestion B. production C. movement D. transformation Question 42: According to the hypothesis in the passage, what happened to whales legs? A: They became front flippers B: They disappeared quickly C: They got larger over time D: They got stronger over time Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50 The term "folk song" has been current for over a hundred years, but there is still a good deal of disagreement as to what it actually means. The definition provided by the International Folk Music Council states that folk music is the music of ordinary people, which is passed on from person to person by being listened to rather than learned from the printed page. Other factors that help shape a folk song include: continuity (many performances over a number of years); variation (changes in words and melodies either through artistic interpretation or failure of memory); and selection (the acceptance of a song by the community in which it evolves). When songs have been subjected to these processes their origin is usually impossible to trace. For instance, if a farm laborer were to make up a song and sing it to a-couple of friends who like it and memorize it, possibly when the friends come to sing it themselves one of them might forget some of the words and make up new ones to fill the gap, while" the other, perhaps more artistic, might add a few decorative touches to the tune and improve a couple of lines of text. If this happened a few times there would be many different versions, the song's original composer would be forgotten, and the song would become common property. This constant reshaping and re-creation is the essence of folk music. Consequently, modem popular songs and other published music, even though widely sung by people who are not professional musicians, are not considered folk music. The music and words have been set by a printed or recorded source, limiting scope for further artistic creation. These songs' origins cannot be disguised and therefore they belong primarily to the composer and not to a community. The ideal situation for the creation of folk music is an isolated rural community. In such a setting folk songs and dances have a special purpose at every stage in a person's life, from childhood to death. Epic tales of heroic deeds, seasonal songs relating to calendar events, and occupational songs are also likely to be sung. 6
