have imagined, when it was first invented, that within a matter of years, this tiny piece of silicon and
circuitry would be found in almost every household object from the kettle to the video recorder. And
nobody could have predicted the sudden proliferation of computers that would completely change our
lives, allowing us to access information from the other side of the world via the Internet or send massages
around the world by e-mail at the touch of a button. Meanwhile, research into other aspects of
information technology is making it easier and cheaper for us to talk to friends and relations around the

familiar in every household.

PART IV. READING
Questions 41-50: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow by circling the
corresponding letter A, B, C or D of the correct answers. Mark your choice on the answer sheet.
One day in 1963, a dolphin named Elvar and a famous astronomer, Carl Sagan, were playing a little
game. The astronomer was visiting an institute which was looking into the way dolphins communicate
with each other. Sagan was standing on the edge of one of the tanks where several of these friendly,
highly intelligent creatures were kept. Elvar had just swum up alongside him and had turned on his back.
The dolphin wanted Sagan to scratch his stomach again, as the astronomer had done twice before. Elvar
looked up at Sagan, waiting. Then, after a minute or so, the dolphin leapt up through the water and made
a sound just like the word "more". The astonished astronomer went to the director of the institute and told

Page 45 Exercise English 10


him about the incident. "Oh, yes. That's one of the words he knows," the director said, showing no
surprise at all.
Dolphins have bigger brains in proportion to their body size than humans have, and it has been known for
a long time that they can make a number of sounds. What is more, these sounds seem to have different
functions, such as warning each other of danger. Sound travels much faster and much further in water
than it does in air. That is why the parts of the brain that deal with sound are much better developed in
dolphins than in humans. For example, the two questions "Who loves Mary?" and "Who does Mary
love?" mean very different things. Scientists don't agree on this.

A tree planting campaign is always a good start to a greening program because the effects are immediate.

can be obtained free or at a discounted price from the local Forestry Department.

Ragtime, developed primarily by black pianists, is a style of composed piano music that was popular
from the 1890s to about 1915. It is a style of jazz characterized by an elaborately syncopated rhythm in
the melody and a steadily accented accompaniment. Ragtime quickly gained popularity after its first
appearances, reaching millions on a national scale through sheet music, player pianos, ragtime songs, and
arrangements for dance and marching bands. The leading ragtime composer was Scott Joplin, known as
the "King of Ragtime," whose most famous piano piece, "Maple Leaf Rag," was published in 1899.
Ragtime piano music has a generally standard form, duple meter (2/4, or two beats per measure)
performed at a moderate march tempo. The pianist's right hand plays a highly syncopated melody, while
the left hand steadily maintains the beat with an "oom-pah" accompanishment. A ragtime piece usually
consists of several similar melodies that take such forms as AA BB A CC DD or Introduction AA BB CC
DD EE, where each letter represents a melodic phrase. "Maple Leaf Rag" is a classic example of ragtime.
The forms of ragtime derive from European marches and dances, but the rhythms are rooted in African-
American folk music.

A. compare ragtime and jazz

Questions 41-50: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow by circling the

A drop shot, a tennis player "drops" the ball just over the net, hoping that his or her opponent won't get to
it at all or will just barely reach it, thus making a weak return. The drop shot works well in a number of
situations. It can be used to tire an opponent, to bring a baseline player to the net, to win points outright
when an opponent is slow in moving forward or is out of position, or to substitute for the approach shot.
A perfect situation for a drop shot occurs when a player's opponent is far out of the court and hits well to
the inside of the service line. A good drop shot is a sure winner, but a bad one is equally certain a
disaster. The opponent who gets to the ball early has been handed the net position, which is a distinct
advantage for the net rusher who will usually win the point in short order.

It has been said that to turn a corner in Toledo is to enter another century. The city is a rich blend of the
cultures that occupied it after a series of invations. Strategically nearly impregnable. Toledo is located in

capital at Toledo and brought Christianity to the city's citizens.
It was the conquest of Toledo in the eighth century by the Moors that created the most dramatic and
lasting effects upon the city. Moorish arts and architecture embellished the once predominantly military
fortress. Mosques, mansions, and towers were built to last, so they remain to impress the visitors to
Toledo with their opulence to this day.
