Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
Safety is anything that people do to protect themselves or others from
harmful accidents. People can prevent accidents by following safety
measures. Governments pass laws to keep people safe. For example, a
law could require that buildings have clearly marked exits. This would
allow people to escape quickly during a fire. Laws and other rules that are
meant to protect all people are called public safety measures. Another
way to promote public safety is to spread information about safety
measures. For example, magazines about parenting often have articles on
how to keep a house safe for children. These articles may recommend
keeping cleaning products out of reach or covering electrical outlets.
Workplaces also have rules that are designed to keep workers safe. These
are called occupational safety measures. For example, factories may
require employees to wear a helmet or safety goggles to protect
themselves from injury.
Answer the following questions:
31-What might happen if safety rules are not observed at workplaces?

Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
Isaac Newton was one of the great figures in the history of science. His
ideas about motion and gravity are very important to the science of
physics. After Newton graduated from college, he continued to study and
do experiments on his own. His first great discovery came from his
experiments with light. He found that when white light passes through a
prism, or triangular piece of glass, it breaks up into a band of colors.
Newton concluded that white light is a mixture of colors. Newton also
wanted to know what keeps the Moon in its orbit, or path, around Earth.
He thought that only an attraction, or pull, between Earth and the Moon
could explain it. This pull is called gravity. Newton’s work showed how
gravity controls the motion of the planets around the sun as well as the
motion of the Moon. As he studied gravity and motion, Newton also
made important contributions to mathematics.
