Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the<br />
questions.<br />
Successful students often do the followings while studying. First, they have an overview before reading.<br />
Next they look for important information and pay greater attention to it (which often needs jumping forward<br />
or backward to process information). They also relate important points to one another. Also they activate and<br />
use their prior knowledge. When they realize that their understanding is not good, they do not wait to change<br />
strategies. Last, they can monitor understanding and take action to correct of “fix up” mistakes in<br />
comprehension.<br />
Conversely students with low academic achievement often demonstrate ineffective study skills. They<br />
tend to assume a passive role in learning and rely on others (e.g, teachers, parents) to monitor their studying.<br />
For example, low-achieving students often do not monitor their understanding of content; they may not be<br />
aware of the purpose of studying; and they show little evidence of looking back, or employing “fix up”<br />
strategies to fix understanding problems. Students who struggle with learning new information seem to be<br />
unaware that they must extent effort beyond simply reading the content to understand and remember it.<br />
Children with learning disabilities do not plan and judge the quality of their studying. Their studying may be<br />
disorganized. Students with learning problems face challenges with personal organization as well. They often<br />
have difficulty keeping track of materials and assignments, following directions, and completing work on<br />
time. Unlike good studiers who employ a variety of studying skills in a flexible yet purposeful manner, lowachieving students use a restricted range of study skills. They cannot explain why good study strategies are<br />
important for learning; and they tend to use the same, often ineffective, study approach for all learning tasks,<br />
ignoring task content, structure or difficulty.<br />

A. important<br />
B. earlier<br />

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the<br />
questions.<br />
Living things include both the visible world of animals and plants, as well as the invisible world of<br />
bacteria and viruses. On a basic level, we can say that life is ordered. Organisms have an enormously complex<br />
organization. Life can also “work”. Living creatures can take in energy from the environment. This energy, in<br />
the form of food, is changed to maintain metabolic processes and for survival. Life grows and develops. This<br />
means more than just getting larger in size. Living organisms also have the ability to rebuild and repair<br />
themselves when injured. Life can reproduce. Life can only come from other living creatures .Life can<br />
respond. Think about the last time you accidentally stubbed your toe. Almost instantly, you moved back in<br />
pain. Finally life can adapt and respond to the demands placed on it by the environment. There are three basic<br />
types of adaptations that can occur in higher organisms.<br />
Reversible changes occur as a respond to changes in the environment. Let’s say you live near sea level<br />
and you travel to a mountainous area. You may begin to experience difficulty breathing and an increase in<br />
heart rate as a result of the change in height. These signs of sickness go away when you go back down to sea<br />
level.<br />
Body-related changes happen as a result of prolonged changes in the environment. Using the previous<br />
example, if you were to stay in the mountainous area for a long time, you would notice that your heart rate<br />
would begin to slow down and you would begin to breathe normally. These changes are also reversible.<br />
Genotypic changes (caused by genetic change) take place within the genetic makeup of the organism and are<br />
not reversible. An example would be the development of resistance to bug-killing chemical by insects and<br />
spiders.<br />
44. In what way is life organized?<br />
A. hard<br />
B. difficult<br />
C. complicated<br />
D. problematic<br />
45. Which of the following is NOT a feature of life?<br />
A. reacting to the environment<br />
B. giving birth<br />
C. getting a job<br />
D. getting larger and self-repairing<br />
46. What is the energy for living things called?<br />
A. environment<br />
B. green energy<br />
C. food<br />
D. metabolic process<br />
47. You see life respond most clearly when you.................<br />
A. feel hurt<br />
B. look at your toe<br />
C. move part of your body due to threat<br />
D. intentionally hurt yourself<br />
48. Which type of living creatures can adapt to the changes in the environment?<br />
A. more visible<br />
B. more human<br />
C. higher<br />
D lower<br />
49. What does the word “reversible” in the passage mean?<br />
A. changeable<br />
B. fitful<br />
C. visible<br />
D. irregular<br />
50. Which type of adaptation is permanent?<br />
A. reversible<br />
B. body-related<br />
C. genotypic<br />
D. environmental<br />
