A recent investigation by scientists at the U.S.Geological Survey shows that strange animal behavior 
might help predict earthquakes. Investigators found such occurrences within a ten – kilometer radius of the 
epicenter of a fairly recent quake. Some birds screeched and flew about wildly; dogs yelped and ran around 
uncontrollably. 
 Scientists believed that animals can perceive environmental changes several hours or even days before 
the mishap. Animals were noted as being restless foer several weeks before a Tashkent, Uzbekistan, 
earthquake. An hour before the disaster, domestic animals refused go to indoors, and dogs howled and barked 
furiously. In 1960, an earthquake struck Agadir in Morocco. Survivors recall that stray animals, including dogs, 
were seen streaming out of town before the earthquake. In a safari zoo near San Francisco, llamas would not eat 
the evening before a 1979 quake, and they ran around wildly all night. 
 Unusual animal behavior preceding earthquakes has been noted for centuries. British Admiral Robert 
Fitzroy reported huge flocks of screaming seabirds over Concepcion, Chile, in 1835. An hour and a half later, 
dogs were seen fleeing, and ten minutes later the town was destroyed. Similar stories of chickens running 
around in apparent states of panic, horses trembling, and dogs barking incessantly were recorded throughout the 
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries by survivors of eathquakes destruction in India, Yugoslavia, Peru, Mexico, 
and the United States. 
 In 1976, after monitoring bizarre animal behavior, the Chinese predicted a devastating earthquake. 
Although hundreds of thousands of people were killed, the government was able to evacuate millions of other 
people and thus keep the death toll at a lower level. 
Question 36: What prediction may be made by observing animal behaviors? 
A. An impending earthquake B. The number of people who will die 
C. The ten kilometer radius from the epicenter D. The fact that an earthquake has occurred 
Question 37 : “devastating” means most nearly the same as 
A. destructive B. voracious C. intense D. forthcoming 
Question 38 : The author implies that animals are aware of an impending earthquake because 
A. of their superior intelligence 
B. they have certain instinctive abilities to perceive that humans do not possess 
C. they are generally closer to epicenter than the human observers 
D. they react to other animal behavior 
Question 39 : The word “epicenter” is nearest in meaning to 
A. stratosphere B. contour C. periphery D. core 
Question 40 : All of the following statements are true EXCEPT 
A. some animals may be able to sense an approaching earthquake 
B. by observing animal behavior scientists perhaps can predict earthquake 
C. the Chinese have successfully predicted an earthquake and saved many lives 
D. only dogs and horses seem to possess the special perception that allows them to predict earthquakes 
Question 41 : The passage implies that if scientists can accurately predict earthquakes, there will be 
A. fewer animals going crazy B. a lower death rate 
C. fewer people evacuated D. fewer environmental changes 
Question 42: The word “evacuate” is closest in meaning to 
A. remove B. exile C. destroy D. emaciate 
XI> 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 to50 
Noise is unwanted sound and is among the most pervasive pollutants today. Noise from road traffic, jet 
planes, jet skis, garbage trucks, construction equipment, manufacturing processes, lawn mowers, leaf blowers, 
and boom boxes, to name a few, are among the unwanted sounds that are routinely broadcast into the air. 
The problem with noise is not only that it is unwanted, but also that it negatively affects human health 
and well-being. Problems related to noise include hearing loss, stress, high blood pressure, sleep loss, 
distraction and lost productivity, and a general reduction in the quality of life and opportunities for tranquillity. 
We experience noise in a number of ways. On some occasions, we can be both the cause and the victim 
of noise, such as when we are operating noisy appliances or equipment. There are also instances when we 
experience noise generated by others just as people experience second-hand smoke. While in both instances, 
noises are equally damaging, second-hand noise is more troubling because it has negative impacts on us but is 
put into the environment by others, without our consent. 
The air into which second-hand noise is emitted and on which it travels is a “commons”, a public 
good. It belongs to no one person or group, but to everyone. People, businesses, and organizations, therefore, do 
not have unlimited rights to broadcast noise as they please, as if the effects of noise were limited only to their 
private property. On the contrary, they have an obligation to use the commons in ways that are compatible with 
or do not detract from other uses. 
People, businesses, and organizations that disregard the obligation to not interfere with others' use and 
enjoyment of the commons by producing noise pollution are, in many ways, acting like a bully in a school yard. 
Although perhaps unknowingly, they nevertheless disregard the rights of others and claim for themselves rights 
that are not theirs. 
We have organized to raise awareness of noise pollution and help communities take back the commons 
from those acting like bullies. Our efforts include building a library of resources and tools concerning noise 
pollution, establishing links to other groups that have similar collections, establishing networks among local 
noise activists, assisting communities and activists who are working to reduce noise pollution, and monitoring 
and advocating for stronger noise controls. 
Question 43 : It is stated in the passage that all of the following are things the noise comes from EXCEPT 
______. 
A. Television, radio B. Lawn mower, leaf blowers 
C. Road traffic, garbage trucks D. Jet planes, watercraft 
Question 44: It can be inferred from the passage that the effects of noise pollution on the human body are that 
______. 
A. people get accustomed to ear and heart diseases B. people focus mainly on hearing 
C. people have difficulty falling asleep D. people are sensitive about everything around them 
Question 45: Which of the following is supposed to be way to reduce noise pollution? 
A. cooperation with other noise activists B. fining people who break laws in noise regulation 
C. construction of large projects along roads D. prohibiting public transport during peak hours 
Question 46: The word “it” in paragraph 4 refers to ______. 
A. the air B. a public good C. effect of noise D. second-hand noise 
Question 47 : It is mentioned in the passage that when we are operating noisy appliances or we experience 
noise generated by others ______. 
A. The noise is so troublesome if we make it or not. 
B. We feel more comfortable if we don’t experience second-hand noise. 
C. The noise have a strong influence on us, but not on others. 
D. We just ignore the serious detriment if the noise is put into the environment by others. 
Question 48: The word “disregard” in paragraph 5 could be best replaced by which of the following? 
A. ignore B. obey C. invade D. disturb 
Question 49: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? 
A. Noise that is experienced by people who did not produce it is called second-hand noise. 
B. People’s enjoyment of the commons by producing noise pollution is regarded as a bully. 
C. Noise is one of the most common contaminants nowadays. 
D. People intentionally make noise when they work.
