These birds are known from<br /> four very good skeletons, two incomplete skeletons, and an isolated feather, all from the<br /> Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany. This fine-grained rock, which is extensively<br /> quarried for lithographic stone, was evidently deposited in a shallow coral lagoon of a<br /> tropical sea, and flying vertebrates occasionally fell into the water and were buried by<br /> the fine limy mud, to be preserved with remarkable detail in this way, the late Jurassic<br /> bird skeletons, which have been named Archaeopteryx, were fossilized. And not only<br /> were the bones preserved in these skeletons, but so also were imprints of the feathers.<br /> If the indications of feathers had not been preserved in association with Archaeopteryx,<br /> it is likely that these fossils would have been classified among the dinosaurs, for they<br /> show numerous theropod characteristics.<br /> Archaeopteryx were animals about the size of a crow, with an archeosaurian type<br /> of skull, a long neck, a compact body balanced on a pair of strong hind limbs, and a long<br /> tail. The forelimbs were enlarged and obviously functioned as wings. Modern birds, who<br /> are the descendants of these early birds, are highly organized animals, with a constant<br /> body temperature and a very high rate of metabolism. In addition, they are remarkable<br /> for having evolved extraordinarily complex behavior patterns such as those of nesting<br /> <br /> and song, and the habit among many species of making long migrations from one<br /> continent to another and back each year.<br /> Most birds also have very strong legs, which allows them to run or walk on the<br /> ground as well as to fly in the air. Indeed, some of the waterbirds, such as ducks and<br /> geese, have the distinction of being able to move around proficiently in the water, on<br /> land, and in the air, a range in natural locomotor ability that has never been attained by<br /> any other vertebrate.<br /> Question 36: According to the author, all of-the following evidence relating to the first<br /> <br /> birds was found EXCEPT<br /> (A) nesting materials<br /> (B) four skeletons in good condition<br /> (C) two fragmented skeletons<br /> (D) a single feather.<br /> Question 37: The word "preserved" in line 8 is closest in meaning to<br /> (A) confused with others<br /> (B) gradually weakened<br /> (C) protected from destruction<br /> (D) lost permanently<br /> Question 38: It can be inferred from the passage that the Archaeopteryx were classified as<br /> birds on the basis of<br /> (A) imprints of bones<br /> (B) imprints of feathers<br /> (C) the neck structure<br /> (D) skeletons<br /> Question 39: The word "they" in line 10 refers to<br /> (A) indications<br /> (B) fossils<br /> (C) dinosaurs<br /> (D) characteristics<br /> Question 40: It can be inferred from the passage that theropods were<br /> (A) dinosaurs<br /> (B) birds<br /> (C) Archaeopteryx<br /> (D) crows<br /> Question 41: The word "constant" in line 15 is closest in meaning to<br /> (A) comfortable<br /> (B) combined<br /> (C) consistent<br /> (D) complementary<br /> Question 42: The word "attained" in line 23 is closest in meaning to<br /> (A) required<br /> <br />
