(ID : 83673) Read the following passage, and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each question.
The Alaska pipeline starts at the frozen edge of the Arctic Ocean. It stretches southward across
the largest and northernmost state in the United States, ending at a remote ice-free seaport village nearly
800 miles from where it begins .It is massive in size and extremely complicated to operate.
The steel pipe crosses windswept plains and endless miles of delicate tundra that tops the frozen
group. It weaves through crooked canyons, climbs sheer mountains, plunges over rocky crags, make its
way through thick forests, and passes over or under hundreds of rivers and streams . The pipe is 4 feet in
diameter and up to 2 million barrels or 84 million gallons of crude oil can be pumped through it daily.
Resting on H-shaped steel racks called bents, long sections of the pipeline follow a zigzag course
high above the frozen earth .Other long sections drop out of sight beneath spongy or rocky ground and
return to the surface later on. The pattern of the pipelines up-and-down route is determined by the often
harsh demands of the arctic and subarctic climate , the tortuous lay of the land , and the varied
compositions of soil , rock , or permafrost permanently frozen ground. A little more than half of the
pipeline is elevated above the ground .The remainder is buried anywhere from 3 to 12 feet, depending
largely upon the type of terrain and the properties of the soil.
One of the largest in the world, the pipeline cost approximately $8 billion and is by far the biggest
and most expensive construction project ever undertaken by private industry. In fact, no single business
could raise that much money, so 8 major oil companies formed a consortium in order to share the
cost .Each company controlled oil rights to particular shares of land in the oil fields and paid into the
pipeline construction fund according to the size of its holdings. Today, despite enormous problems of
climate, supply shortages, equipment breakdowns, labor disagreements, treacherous terrain, a certain
amount of mismanagement, and even theft, the Alaska pipeline has been completes and is operating.

(ID : 83771) Read the following passage and mark the letter A,B,C or D on your answers sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Generally, in order to be preserved in the fossil record, organisms must possess hard body parts
such as shells or bones. Soft, fleshy structures are quickly destroyed by predators or decayed by bacteria.
Even hard parts left on the surface for any length of time will be destroyed, therefore, organisms must be
buried rapidly to escape destruction by the elements and to be protected against agents of weathering and
erosion. Marine organisms thus are better candidates for fossilization than those living on the land
because the ocean is typical the site of sedimentation, whereas the land is largely the site of erosion.
The beds of ancient lakes were also excellent sites for rapid burial of skeletal remains of freshwater
organisms and skeletons of other animals, including those of early humans, Ancient
swaps were
particularly plentiful with prolific growths of vegetation, which fossilized in abundance. Many animals
became trapped in bogs overgrown by vegetation. The environment of the swaps kept bacterial decay to a
minimum, which greatly aided in the preservation of plants and animals. The rapidly accumulating
sediments in flood plains, deltas, and stream channels buried freshwater organisms, along with other
plants and animals that happened to fall into the water.
Only a small traction of all the organisms that have ever lived are preserved as fossils. Normally, the
remains of a plant or animal are completely destroyed through predation and decay. Although it seems
that fossilization is common for some organisms, for others it is almost impossible. For the most part of,
the remains of organisms are recycled in the earth, which is fortunate because otherwise soil and water
would soon became depleted of essential nutrients. Also, most of the fossils exposed on Earths surface
are destroyed by weathering processes. This make for an incomplete fossil record with poor or no
representation of certain species. The best fossils are those composed of that form the vast majority of
unaltered fossils. Calcite and aragonite also contributed to a substantial number of fossils of certain
organisms.
