Dear Sir,

I’m sick of seeing so much rubbish on the roadside. Lastweek,I drove from Woy Woy to Gosford and saw over 200 soft drink cans and 80 bottles on the readside. The recycling and ” Do the right thing ” campaigns obviously  have not worked. Maybe the police should set up “litter” cameras as well as speed cameras to catch motorists who pollute our roads. In South Australia, you pay a deposit of five cents on cans and bottles and this encourages people to return them rather than dump them. New South Wales should introduce this idea immediatly.

Sincerly,

Whales are the largest animals on the earth. Bigger than elephants, they may grow 95 feet long, and weigh 150 tons. A baby blue whale, just born, can be 23 feet long and weigh 3 tons.

Although whales live in the oceans and swim like fish, they are not fish. They are mammals, like cows and elephants. Unlike fish they bear young alive, not as eggs. Their babies live on their mother’s milk. They breathe through their lungs and hold their breath when they go under water. If they cannot come to the surface to breathe fresh air, they will drown. They are warm blooded. Fish, however, lay eggs, breathe oxygen in the water, and are cold-blooded.

Whales life in all-the ocean, in the winter some of them go to warm waters to breed and in the summer most of them go to cold waters to feed. There are to kinds of whales, whales with teeth (tooted whales) and whales without teeth (baleen whales). The toothed whales eat fish and squid, which they can catch with their teeth, although they swallow their food without chewing it. The baleen whales eat plankton (small sea animals and plants). When they find plankton, they open their mouth and swallow the plankton.

Whales have few enemies. Only human and killer whale attack whales. And whales do not seem to fight among themselves. They usually live from 20 to 30 years.

40.        What is the main idea of the second paragraph?

a.         Whales are the largest animals on the earth.

b.         There are two kinds of whales.

c.         Whales are mammals.

d.        Whales have few enemies.

e.         Fish lay eggs, breathe oxygen in the water

41.        Whales occasionally live in warm waters…

a.         To get more foods

b.         For production

c.         For fresh air

d.        To avoid winter

e.         To feed their babies

42.        From the text we may conclude…

a.         a whale can eat both squid and plankton

b.         tooted whales chew their food before swallowing it

c.         the two types of whales live in different waters.

d.        Baleen whales swallow the water containing plankton

e.         Each type of whale eat specific in of food

The Brainy Body

Your brain is as big as your two fists side by side. It's the place where you think, learn, work out problems, remember, feel happy and sad, wonder, worry, have ideas, sleep and dream.

Yet the brain looks like a wrinkly lump of grey-pink jelly! On average, it weighs about 1.4 kilograms. It doesn't move, but its amazing nerve activity uses up one-fifth of all the energy needed by the body.

The main part of the brain is its bulging, wrinkled upper part, the cerebrum. Different areas of its surface (cerebral cortex) deal with nerve signals to and from different parts of the body. For example, messages from the eyes pass to the lower rear part of the cerebrum, called the visual center. They are sorted here as the brain cells work out what the eyes are seeing.

There are also areas for touch, hearing, taste and other body processes. ,

The cerebellum is the rounded, wrinkled part at the back of the brain. It processes messages from the motor center, sorting and coordinating them in great detail, to send to the body's hundreds of muscles. This is how we learn skilled, precise movements such as writing, cycling or playing music (or all three), almost without thinking.

The brain stem is the lower part of the brain, where it joins the body's main nerve, the spinal cord. The brain stem controls basic processes vital for life, like breathing, heartbeat, digesting food and removing wastes.

The brain really does have 'brain waves'. Every second it receives sorts and sends millions of nerve signals. Special pads attached to the head can detect these tiny electrical pulses. They are shown on a screen or paper strip as wavy lines called an EEG, electro-encephalogram.

Kangaroo

            A Kangaroo is a marsupial from the family Marcopodidae (marcopods, meaning ‘large foot’). In common use the term is used to describe the largest species from this family, the Red Kangaroo, the Antilopine Kangaroo, and the eastern and Western Grey Kangaroo of the Macropus genus.

            The Kangaroo is an Australia icon: it is featured on the Australian coat of arms, on some of its currency, and is used by many Australian organizations, including Qantas.

            Kangaroo soon became adopted into Standard English where it has come to mean any member of the family of kangaroos and wallabies. Male kangaroos are called bucks, boomers, jacks, or old men; famales are does, flyers, or jills, and the young ones are joeys. The collective noun for kangaroos is a mob, troop, or court. Kangaroos are sometimes colloquially referred to as roos.

            Kangaroos have large, powerful hind legs, large feet adapted for leaping, along muscular tail for balance, and a small head. Like all marsupials, female kangaroos have a pouch called a marcupium in which joeys complete postnatal development.

            Because of its long feet, it cannot walk correctly. To move at slow speeds, it used its tail to form a tripod with its two forelimbs. It then raises its hind feet forward, in a form of locomotion called “crawl-walking.”

49.     The following are about the kangaroo, EXCEPT…

a.     Male kangaroos have puch called marsopium

Mangrove Trees

            A mangrove is a tropical maritime tree or shrub of the genus Rhizophora. Mangroves have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots that enable them to thrive in brackish water (brackish water is salty, but not as salty as sea water).

            There are several species of mangrove tress found all over the world. Some prefer more salinity, while others like to be very close to a large fresh water source (such as a river). Some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. Some species have their roots covered with sea water every day during high tide. Others are more sensitive to salinity, and grow closer to the shore. Other species grow on dry land, but are still part of the ecosystem.

            Mangrove need to keep their trunk and leaves above the water line. Yet they also need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waves. There are three types of mangrove roots that help in this process :

1.     Support roots which directly pierce the soil.

2.      Level-growing roots which twist upward and downwards, with the upward twists emerging on the water surface.

3.     Level-growing roots whose downward twists (sub-roots) appear on the water surface.

Any part of a root that appears above the water line channels oxygen to the plant below the water line. Over time as soil begins to build up, these roots produce additional roots that become embedded in the soil.

52.     What is a mangrove tree ?

a.     It is dessert tree or vegetation of the genus Zoroaster

b.    It is a mountain tree or plant of the genus polychaeta

c.     It is a jungle tree or vegetation of the genus ancylostoma

d.    It is a sea tree or plant of the genus pseudoselomata

e.     It is a tropical maritime tree or shrub of the genus rhyzophora.

53.     What makes mangroves able to thrive in brackish water? Because………

a.     They have feet to move to another area

b.    They do need oxygen to live

c.     They do not need water to live

d.    They have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots

e.     They produces the salt for human.

54.     What can you say about brackish water?

a.     Brackish water is sweet but not as sweet as sugar

b.    Brackish water is sour but not as sour as acid

c.     Brackish water is hot but not as hot as red pepper

d.    Brackish water is salty but not as salty as sea water

e.     Brackish water is bitter but not as bitter as herbs.

55.     Why do mangroves need to be firmly attached to the ground ? so…

a.     They will move by waves to another area

b.    They are not moved by waves

c.     It is easier to catch their prey

d.    They can fly like bird

e.     They were drifting along with the current.

56.     What is the generic structure of the text?

a.     Newsworthy events > background events > sources

b.    Identification > description

c.     Orientation > event > re-orientation

d.    Orientation > evaluation > complication > resolution > re-orientation

e.     General classification > description

TOKYO: A Japanese carmaker is developing an electric vehicle that can help electric that can help elderly drivers with braking and steering by detecting slow responses and a lack of attentiveness, officials said.

Autech Japan Inc., affiliated with Nissan Motor Co. Ltd., aims to launch the Micro Utility Vehicle in Japan in 2006 in co-operation with Tokyo University and other institutions.

HUMBURG (DAP): At least one malll dream of mankind seems to be becoming true. For the first time ever, people can contact on your usual telephone number anywhere in the world.

No matter where you are – in the desert, in the Brazilian rain forest or on board ship in mid-Atlantic, your mobile phone will ring wherever anyone call

This miracle has been made possible by the U.S. Telecommunications Corporation Iridium, which is owned by a group of companies headed by Motorola.

The technical basis for opening up what Iridium describes as a “new word of global telephoning” is provided by no fewer than 66 satellites launched one by one since May last year. The satellites make the connection to any suitable mobile phone.
