VI. READING COMPREHENTION: (10PTS)
Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each of the questions below.
Passage 1:
Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical
ng
aloud. Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become commonplace. One should be wary,
however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud was a distraction to
others. Examinations of factors related to the historical development of silent reading have revealed that
it became the usual mode of reading for most adults mainly because the tasks themselves changed in
character.
The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers. As
om
the number of readers increased, the number of potential listeners declined and thus there was some
reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the
flourishing of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices,
where reading aloud would cause distraction to other readers.
Towards the end of the century, there was still considerable argument over whether books should
c
be used for information or treated respectfully and over whether the reading of materials such as
newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed, this argument remains with us still in
h.
education. However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by
the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and periodicals for a specialised readership on the
other. By the end of the twentieth century, students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books
an
and to use reading skills which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social,

ng
A. people relied on reading for entertainment
B. silent reading had not been discovered
C. there were few places available for private reading
ie
A. B. most preferable
C. attracting attention D. widely used
ic
63. The development of silent reading during the last century indicated ______.
A. an increase in the average age of readers
th
om
A. is good at public speaking B. practises reading to an audience
C. takes part in an audition D. is interested in spoken language
68. All might be the factors that affected the continuation of the old shared literacy culture EXCEPT
_____.
c
A. the inappropriate reading skills B. the specialised readership
h.
C. the diversity of reading materials D. the printed mass media
69. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. Reading aloud was more common in the past than it is today.
an
B. Not all printed mass media was appropriate for reading aloud.
C. The decline of reading aloud was wholly due to its distracting effect.
ng
D. The change in reading habits was partly due to the social, cultural and technological changes.
70. The writer of this passage is attempting to ______.
A. explain how reading habits have developed
ie
B.
C. show how reading methods have improved

Passage 2:
It is estimated that over 99 percent of all species that ever existed have become extinct. What
causes extinction? When a species is no longer adapted to a change environment, it may perish. The
th
environment hostile to a species. For example, temperatures may change and a species may not be adapt.
Food resources may be affected by environmental changes, which will then cause problems for a species
requiring these resources. Other species may become better adapted to an environment, resulting in
competition and, ultimately, in the death of a species.
The fossil record reveals that extinction has occurred throughout the history of Earth. Recent
analyses have also revealed that on some occasions many species became extinct at the same time - a
mass extinction. One of the best - known examples of mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago
with the demise of dinosaurs and many other forms of life. Perhaps the largest mass extinction was the
one that occurred 225 million years ago, when approximately 95 percent of all species died. Mass
extinctions can be caused by a relatively rapid change in the environment and can be worsened by the

close interrelationship of many species. If, for example, something were to happen to destroy much of
the plankton in the oceans, then the oxygen content of Earth would drop, affection even organisms not
living in the oceans. Such a change would probably lead to a mass extinction.
One interesting, and controversial, finding is that extinctions during the past 250 million years
have tended to be more intense every 26 million years. The periodic extinction might be due to
researchers have also speculated that extinction may often be random. That is, certain species may be
with its ability or inability to adapt. If so, some of revolutionary history may reflect a sequence of
essentially random events.

A. exceptionally B. unfortunately C. eventually D. dramatically
