Harvard University, today recognized as part of the top echelon of the world's universities, came from very inauspicious
and humble beginning.
This oldest of Amer than 'emigrants to the Massachusetts colony during this period were more than 100 universities was
founded in 1636, just sixteen years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth. Included in the graduates of England's prestigious
Oxford and Cambridge universities, and these universities graduates in the New World were determined that their sons would have
the same educational opportunities that they themselves had had. Because of this support in the colony for an institution of higher
learning, the General Court of Massachusetts appropriated 400 pounds for a college in October of 1636 and early the following
year decided on a parcel of land for the school; this land was in an area called Newetowne, which was later renamed Cambridge
after its English cousin and is the site of the present-day university.
When a young minister named John Harvard, who came from the neighboring town of Charlestowne, died from
tuberculosis in 1638, he willed half of his estate of 1,700 pounds to the fledgling college. In spite of the fact that only half of day
bequest was actually paid, the General Court named the college after the minister in appreciation for what he had done. The
amount of the bequest may not have been large, particularly by today's standard, but it was more than the General Court had found
it necessary to appropriate in order to open the college.
Henry Dunster was appointed the first president of Harvard in 1640, and it should be noted that in addition to serving as
president, he was also the entire faculty, with an entering freshmen class of four students. Although the staff did expand
somewhat, for the first century of its existence the entire teaching staff consisted of the president and three or four tutors.

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.
Though called by sweet-sounding names like Firinga or Katrina, tropical cyclones are huge rotating storms 200 to 2,000
kilometers wide with winds that blow at speeds of more than 100 kilometers per hour (kph). Weather professionals know them as
tropical cyclones, but they are called hurricanes in the Caribbean Sea, typhoons in the Pacific Ocean, and cyclones in the Indian
Ocean. They occur in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Large ones have destroyed cities and killed hundreds of
thousands of people.
Tropical cyclones begin over water that is warmer than 27 degrees Celsius (80 degrees Fahrenheit) slightly north or south
of the earth's equator. Warm, humid air full of water vapor moves upward. The earth's rotation causes the growing storm to start to
rotate around its center (called the eye). At a certain height, the water vapor condenses, changing to liquid and releasing heat. The
heat draws more air and water vapor upward, creating a cycle as air and water vapor rise and liquid water falls. If the cycle speeds
up until winds reach 118 kilometers per hour, the storm qualifies as a tropical cyclone.
Most deaths in tropical cyclones are caused by storm surge. This is a rise in sea level, sometimes seven meters or more,
caused by the storm pushing against the ocean's surface. Storm surge was to blame for the flooding of New Orleans in 2005. The
storm surge of Cyclone Nargis in 2008 in Myanmar pushed seawater nearly four meters deep some 40 kilometers inland, resulting
in many deaths.
It has never been easy to forecast a tropical cyclone accurately. The goal is to know when and where the next tropical
cyclone will form. "And we can't really do that yet," says David Nolan, a weather researcher from the University of Miami. The
direction and strength of tropical cyclones are also difficult to predict, even with computer assistance. In fact, long-term forecasts
are poor; small differences in the combination of weather factors lead to very different storms. More accurate forecasting could
help people decide to evacuate when a storm is on the way.

A. more than 100 kph B. at least 200 kph C. less than 100 kph D. no less than 200 kph

C. Water vapor condenses. D. Wind speed reaches 118 kph.

A. took a very high death toll. C. It occurred in Myanmar in 2005.
B. It caused flooding in New Orleans in 2005. D. It pushed seawater 4 kilometers inland.
