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 /> 1.

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 /> 44. What is the topic of the passage?<br /> A. Successful and low-academic achieving students.<br /> B. Successful learners and their learning strategies.<br /> C. Study skills for high school students<br /> D. Effective and ineffective ways of learning.<br /> 45. According to the passage, what can be learnt about passive students?<br /> A. they monitor their understanding<br /> B. they depend on other people to organize their learning<br /> C. they are slow in their studying<br /> D. they know the purpose of studying<br /> 46. Which of the following is NOT evidence of monitoring studying?<br /> A. Monitoring their understanding of content<br /> B. Being aware of the purpose of studying<br /> C.
