II. Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question.<br />
One of the most important discoveries of the nineteenth century was a method of using natural<br />
gas for cooking and heating. Large amounts of natural gas are found in the United States, usually<br />
several feet below the surface of the earth. Natural gas is most often found in places where<br />
petroleum, the oil from which gasoline is made, is found. Often the natural gas must be removed<br />
before the oil itself can be reached.<br />
For many years after natural gas was first discovered, it was thought to have no value. Finally,<br />
however, people began to understand its use and to find ways of storing it and moving it from<br />
place to place. Today natural gas is stored in large tanks and used for lighting, cooking and<br />
heating. It has also been used for electric generators and hybrid cars recently. In many ways<br />
natural gas is one of our finest fuels. It can be used for cooking without making the room hot. It is<br />
cheap and can be moved easily from one place to another through long pipelines, some of which<br />
are hundreds of miles in length.<br />
1. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.<br />
A. natural gas is useless<br />
B. people once wasted natural gas<br />
C. natural gas is moved in trucks<br />
D. natural gas is found where there is no petroleum<br />
2. This passage as a whole is about ________.<br />
A. discovering natural gas<br />
B. finding petroleum<br />
C. using natural gas and petroleum<br />
D. natural gas and its use<br />
3. Which of the following is NOT true about natural gas?<br />
A. It is not used for heating.<br />
B. It moves through pipes.<br />
C. It is cheap.<br />
D. It can be stored.<br />
4. According to the passage, the easiest way to move natural gas from one place to another is<br />
________.<br />
A. to store it in large tanks to move<br />
B. to liquidize it and move it by trucks<br />
C. through pipelines<br />
D. to liquidize it and move it through pipelines<br />
5. How many uses of natural gas are mentioned?<br />
A. two<br />
B. three<br />
C. four<br />
D. five<br />
III. Fill in each numbered blank of the following passage with ONE suitable word.<br />
Page of 3/4<br />
<br />
If you live in a city, you probably see many people, hear the (1)_______of traffic, and smell the<br />
pollution (2)_______cars and factories.<br />
