Music is indeed remarkable in its power over all humankind, and perhaps for that every reason, no human culture on earth has ever lived without it. From discoveries made in France and Slovenia even Neanderthal man, as long as 53,000 years ago, had developed surprisingly 5 sophisticated, sweet-‐sounding flutes carved from animal bones. It is perhaps then, no accident that music should strike such a chord with the limbic system – an ancient part of our brain, evolutionarily speaking, and one that we share with much of the animal kingdom. Some researchers even propose that music came into this world long before the human race ever did. For example, the fact that whale and human music have so much in 10 common even though our evolutionary paths have not interested for nearly 60 million years suggests that music may predate humans. They assert that rather than being the inventors of music, we are latecomers to the musical scene. Humpback whale composers employ many of the same tricks that human songwriters do. In addition to using similar rhythms, humpbacks keep musical phrases to a few 15 seconds, creating themes out of several phrases before singing the next one. Whale songs in general are no longer than symphony movements, perhaps because they have a similar attention span. Even though they can sing over a range of seven octaves, the whales typically sing in key, spreading adjacent notes no farther apart than a scale. They mix percussive and pure tones in pretty much the same ratios as human composers – and 20 follow their ABA form, in which a theme is presented, elaborated on and then revisited in a slightly modified form. Perhaps most amazing, humpback whale songs include repeating refrains that rhyme. It has been suggested that whales might use rhymes for exactly the same reasons that we do: as devices to help them remember. Whale songs can also be rather catchy. When a few humpbacks from the Indian Ocean strayed into the Pacific, some 25 of the whales they met there quickly changed their tunes – singing the new whales’ songs within three short years. Some scientists are even tempted to speculate that a universal music awaits discovery. Question 45: Why did the author write the passage? A. To describe the music for some animals, including humans B. To illustrate the importance of music to whales C. To show that music is not a human or even modern invention D. To suggest that music is independent of life forms that use it Question 46: The word “sophisticated” in line 5 is closest in meaning to: A. compound B. attractive C. well-‐ developed D. beautiful Question 47: The word “one” in line 7 can be replaced by: A. the chord B. the left brain C. the right brain D. the limbic system Question 48: According to the passage, which of the following is true of humpback whales? A. Their tunes are distinctively different from human tunes. B. They can sing over a range of seven octaves. C. They do not use rhyme, unlike humans. D. Whale songs of a particular group cannot be learned by other whales. Question 49: The word “They” in line 18 refers to: A. human composers B. whole songs C. octaves D. whales Question 50: Which of the following is NOT true about humpback whale music? A. It uses similar patterns to human songs. B. It’s comparative in length to symphony movements.
C. It’s easy to learn by other whales. D. It’s in a form of creating a theme, elaborating and revisiting in rhyming refrains.

Lines 20-‐24 Question 54: The word ‘their” in line 25 refers to: A. Indian Ocean humpbacks B.

The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well., especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meat) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue. A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest. Sometimes well-‐meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge. Question 55. How has science done a disservice to people? A: The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables. B: It caused a lack of information concerning the value of food. C: As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food D: Because of science, disease caused by contaminated food has been virtually eradicated.
