Line Aspirin’s origins go back at least as early as 1785. In that year, Englishman Edward Stone noticed a distinctive bitter flavor in the bark of the willow tree. To Stone, this particular bark seemed to have much in common with “Peruvian Bark”, which had been used medicinally since the 1640s to bring down fevers Page 3 and to treat malaria. Stone decided to test the effectiveness of the willow bark. He obtained some pulverized it into tiny pieces, and conducted 5 experiments on its properties. His tests demonstrated that this pulverized willow bark was effective both in reducing high temperatures and in relieving aches and pains. In 1763, Stone presented his finding to the British Royal Society. Several decades later, further studies on the medicinal value of the willow 10 bark were being conducted by two Italian scientists. These chemists, Brugnatelli and Fontana, determined that the active chemical that was responsible for the medicinal characteristics in the willow bark was the chemical salicin, which is the active ingredient of today’s aspirin. The name “aspirin” is the trade, name of the drug based on the chemical 15 salicin, properly known as acetylsalicylic acid. The trade name “aspirin” was invented for the drug in the 1890s by the Bayer Drug Company in Germany.

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 question from 66 to 75. The ubiquitous bar code, developed more than twenty years ago, is not a stagnant product. On the contrary, the technology has been improved so that it can be used more efficiently. Much less expensive than a computer chip, the bar code can hold more information than it has in the past by adding a second dimension to the structure. The bar code consists of a series of parallel vertical bars or lines of two different widths, although sometimes widths are used, printed in black on a white background. Barcodes are used for entering data into a computer system. The bars represent the binary digits 0 and 1, just like basic computer language, and sequences of these digits can indicate the numbers from 0 to 9, which can then be read by an optical laser scanner and processed by a digital computer. Arabic numbers appear below the code. The traditional bar code has been used to monitor skiers at ski lifts and to determine price and perform inventory control on groceries, drugs, medical supplies, manufactured parts, and library books to name a few. The bar code used on grocery products, introduced in the 1970s, is called a universal product code (or UPC) and assign each type of food or grocery product a unique code. The five digits on the left are assigned to a particular manufacturer or maker and the five digits on the right are used by that manufacturer to identify a specific type or make of product. Traditional single dimension bar codes are not readily customizable because there is little extra space. The two-dimensional bar code, with an information density of 1,100 bytes, allows a considerably greater amount of information to be coded than does the traditional bar code, including customized information. [A] It also has built- in redundancy, meaning that the identical information is duplicated on the same code [B] Therefore, if the code is damaged, it can still be read. [C] The technology even allows pictures or text to be contained within the code, as well as barcode encryption. [D] The new technology dramatically reduces the errors of the single dimensional bar code and reduces costs that some companies have reported in the past. Question 66. The word ubiquitous is the first sentence is closest in meaning to . A. outdated B. ever-present C. new D. com- plicated Question 67. The word stagnant in the first sentence is closest in meaning to A. ever-changing B. useful C. stale D. useless Question 68. The author implies that the bat code A. has only recently become popular. B. will never change. C. is not useful. D. has existed in one-dimensional form for years. Question 69. The author’s main purpose is to describe A. the current technology and newest innovation of bar codes B. problems with the bar code C. the UPC in grocery stores D. why the bar code is no longer viable Question 70. Where in the final paragraph ([A], [B], [C], or [D]) could the following sentence be logically placed? Thus, the manufacturer is able to add additional information on the bar code that it finds useful for its own tracking purposes. A. [A] B. [B] C. [C] D. [D] Question 71. Which of the following can be a UPC symbol? A. A code with five digits on the left, five on the right, two different widths, and one number under each. B. A code with six digits on the left, four on the right, two different widths, and one roman numeral under each. C. A code with five digits on the left, five digits on the right, five or six different widths, and one number under each. 6 D.
