 Ouestions 1-9
Samuel Morse accomplished something that is rarely accomplished: he achieved fame and success in
two widely differing areas. Throughout his youth he studied art, and after graduating from Yale University
he went on to London in 1811, where his early artistic endeavors met with acclaim. In
Line London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Art Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his
(S) paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal
Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits
of the Marquis de Lafayette are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library.
In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well known for his work developing
the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph
(10) in 1832, on board a ship returning to America from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his
associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000
to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C., to
Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was successfully
transmitted.

 Questions 10—20
Mount Rushmore is a well-known monument in the Black Hills of South Dakota that features the
countenances of four U. S. presidents: Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt, and Lincoln. What is not so well
known is that the process of creating this national treasure was not exactly an uneventful
Line one.
(S Mount Rushmore was the project of the visionary sculptor John Gutzen de la Mothe Borglum, who
) was born in Idaho but studied sculpture in Paris in his youth and befriended the famous French sculptor
Auguste Rodin. In 1927 Borglum was granted a commission by the federal government to create the
sculpture on Mount Rushmore. Though he was nearly sixty years old when he started, he was
undaunted by the enormity of the project and the obstacles that it engendered. He optimistically
asserted that the project would be completed within five years, not caring to recognize the potential
(10 problems that such a massive project would involve, the problems of dealing with financing, with
) government bureaucracy, and with Mother Nature herself. An example of what Mother Nature had to
throw at the project was the fissure that developed in the granite where Jefferson was being carved.
Jefferson had to be moved to the other side of Washington, next to Roosevelt, because of the break in
the stone. The work that had been started on the first Jefferson had to be dynamited away.
Mount Rushmore was not completed within the five years predicted by Borglum and was in fact
not actually completed within Borglum’s lifetime, although it was almost finished. Borglum died on
March 6, 1941, at the age of seventy-four, after fourteen years of work on the presidents. His son,
Lincoln Borglum, who had worked with his father throughout the project, completed the monument
within eight months of his father’s death.

 Questions 21-30
Carbon dating can be used to estimate the age of any organic natural material; it has been used
successfully in archeology to determine the age of ancient artifacts or fossils as well as in a variety of
other fields. The principle underlying the use of carbon dating is that carbon is a part of all living
Line things on Earth. Since a radioactive substance such as carbon-14 has a known half-life, the amount of
(S) carbon-14 remaining in an object can be used to date that object.
Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,570 years, which means that after that number of years half of the
carbon-14 atoms have decayed into nitrogen-14. It is the ratio of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14 in that
substance that indicates the age of the substance. If, for example, in a particular sample the amount of
carbon-14 is roughly equivalent to the amount of nitrogen-14, this indicates that roughly half of the
(10 carbon-14 has decayed into nitrogen-14, and the sample is approximately 5,570 years old.
) Carbon dating cannot be used effectively in dating objects that are older than 80,000 years. When
objects are that old, much of the carbon-14 has already decayed into nitrogen-14, and the minuscule
amount that is left does not provide a reliable measurement of age. In the case of older objects, other age-
dating methods are available, methods which use radioactive atoms with longer half-lives than carbon
has.
