World’s Largest Digital Camera Installed in Chile
The world’s largest digital camera is now operational at an observatory in Chile. This impressive
device, known as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) camera, was funded by U.S. government
agencies. It was recently installed in the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, located in the South American country.
Scientists will now begin a testing phase before starting full-scale observations. Over the next decade,
astronomers will use this advanced camera to study the southern hemisphere’s skies in remarkable detail. The
U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science called this achievement “a triumph of science and
engineering” and expressed excitement about the breathtaking images the camera will capture.
The LSST camera is an engineering marvel. It is the size of a small car and weighs 2,721 kg. One of
its most outstanding features is its 3-billion-pixel sensor. In comparison, the highest-quality smartphone
cameras today have only about 200 million pixels. The LSST camera will repeatedly scan the night sky,
capturing highly detailed time-lapse images. Lead researcher Aaron Roodman explained, “We like to say that
we’re making a color movie of the entire Southern Hemisphere sky.” These images will help scientists
understand how galaxies formed and evolved over time.
Another key objective is studying dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up a large
part of the universe. The camera will also create the most detailed map of the Milky Way galaxy ever
produced. The data collected will help answer fundamental questions about space, the universe’s structure,
and its origins.
With its groundbreaking technology, the LSST camera will revolutionize astronomy, allowing
scientists to explore the cosmos in ways never before possible. (Adapted from: https://breakingnewsenglish.com)
Question 23: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a feature of the LSST camera in paragraph 1?
A. It was funded by the U.S. government. B. It can take detailed images of the sky.
C. It is located in Chile. D. It has already discovered new galaxies.
Question 24: The word breathtaking in paragraph 1 could be best replaced by ______.

Question 25: The word it in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. an engineering marvel B. the observatory
C. the government D. the LSST camera
Question 26: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 3?
A. Researchers will use the key goal of LSST camera to observe dark matter for the very first time.
B. One key goal is to study dark matter, which is invisible but plays a major role in the universe.
C. A major objective of the LSST camera is to design a new tool to find dark matter in deep space.
D. The key goal of LSST camera is to take pictures of distant planets that exist in the dark universe.
Question 27: The word revolutionize in paragraph 4 is OPPOSITE in meaning to ______.
A. innovate B. advance C. stabilize D. modernize
Question 28: According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE about the LSST camera?
A. It is already mapping the entire known universe.
B. It will help scientists understand how galaxies formed.
C. It is much smaller than a car and weighs less than 1,000 kg.
D. It will study the northern sky for the next ten years.
Question 29: Which of the following best summarizes the whole text?
A. The LSST camera is the first telescope in South America to take images of space.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 31 to 40.
Global Warming Will Delay Next Ice Age, Say Scientists
Scientists believe they can predict when the next ice age will occur. According to Wikipedia, "An ice
age is a long period of reduction in the temperature of Earth's surface and atmosphere, resulting in the
presence or expansion of continental and polar ice sheets, and alpine glaciers." [I] Researchers from Cardiff
University in the UK estimate that the next ice age should arrive in about 10,000 years. [II] A member of the
research team explained that climate change might make it "very unlikely" for the next freeze to arrive on
time. [III] This means that rising global temperatures could prevent the Earth from entering a new ice age as
expected. [IV]
One major factor contributing to this delay is the melting of glaciers in the North and South Poles.
Lead researcher Professor Stephen Barker and his team examined nearly one million years of climate data to
understand the causes of past ice ages. Their research revealed a link between shifts in the Earth's axis, global
temperatures, and the size of ice sheets in Antarctica and the Arctic. When the amount of ice in these regions
remained stable, ice ages occurred at regular intervals. However, as global temperatures rise and ice continues
to melt, the gaps between ice ages are expected to become much longer.
Professor Barker emphasized that Earth's climate is a highly complex system in which multiple
factors interact. He explained, "Earth's climate is an interconnected system of complex processes, all acting
together to produce the changes we observe." The study highlights the impact of human activities on the
planet’s long-term climate patterns. Scientists warn that ongoing global warming may not only delay the next
ice age but also cause unpredictable environmental consequences.
Understanding these patterns is crucial for predicting future climate changes. Scientists hope
that by studying past ice ages, they can better prepare for the challenges that lie ahead.
(Adapted from: https://breakingnewsenglish.com)
Question 31: Where in paragraph 1 does the following sentence best fit?
However, they suggest that human activities could significantly delay this event.
A. [II] B. [III] C. [IV] D. [I]
Question 32: According to paragraph 1, which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason for the delay of
the next ice age?
A. The climate change impact B. Rising global temperatures
C. The expansion of ice sheets D. increasing greenhouse gases
Question 33: The word examined in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by ______.
A. investigated B. ignored C. removed D. predicted
Question 34: Which of the following best summarizes paragraph 2?
A. Ice ages is happening randomly, with no clear patterns or convincing reasons.
B. Scientists can closely monitor future ice ages thanks to the climate data.
C. Scientists studied past climate data to understand ice ages and their causes.
D. The Earth's axis and ice sheets have no connection to climate patterns.
Question 35: The word interconnected in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to ______.
A. related B. separate C. revealed D. combined
Question 36: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. Studying climate patterns is important for understanding future changes.
B. Scientists have already solved all the crucial climate-related problems.
C. Understanding climate change is crucial for future generations of scientists.
D. Climate change is so important that scientists need to study effectively.
Question 37: The word they in paragraph 4 refers to ______.
A. ice ages B. climate changes C. patterns D. scientists
Question 38: According to the passage, what is one major factor delaying the next ice age?
A. The discovery of new ways to cool the atmosphere.
B. The melting of glaciers in the North and South Poles.
C. The sudden expansion of ice sheets in Antarctica.
D. The movement of the Earth’s orbit around the sun.
Question 39: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The melting of glaciers has no connection to changes in Earth's climate system.
B. Scientists are certain that the next ice age will never occur due to global warming.
C. Ice ages are only caused by shifts in the Earth’s axis and not by temperature changes.
D. Human-caused climate change could interfere with Earth’s natural ice age cycle.
Question 40: Which paragraph discusses the role of human activity in delaying the next ice age?
A. Paragraph 4 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph 1
