    Early Lifeforms and Earth's Atmosphere

    Why has life flourished on Earth This question has a twopan answer First Earth has been a cradle for life because of its position relative to the Sun Second once life began on Earth simple early lifeforms (photosynthetic bacteria) slowly but inexorably altered the environment in a manner that not only maintained life but also paved the way for later complex lifeforms These changes allowed later organisms to evolve and thrive Humans and other higher organisms owe their lifesupporting environment to these early lifeforms
    Earth’s earliest atmosphere contained several gases hydrogen water vapor ammonia nitrogen methane and carbon dioxide but no oxygen Gas mixtures emitted from presentday volcanoes resemble this early atmosphere suggesting its origin from volcanic eruptions in Earth's earliest atmosphere methane and cartoon dioxide occurred at much higher levels than at present—a circumstance that was favorable for early life Methane and carbon dioxide are greenhouse gases that warm atmospheres by retarding loss of heat to space These two gases kept Earth warm during the Sun's early history when the Sun did not bum as brightly as it now does (An early dim period with later brightening is norms for stars of our Sun's type)
    Earth's modem atmosphere which is 78 percent nitrogen gas 21 percent oxygen and





    2 Paragraph 1 supports which of the following inferences

    After complex life forms arose on Earth bacteria quickly evolved in order to maintain favorable conditions for life
    Early life forms on Earth arose from the process of photosynthesis
    The development of complex life on Earth depended on the presence of bacteria that could be consumed by larger organisms
    Complex life forms on Earth may not have evoked if Earth had been farther from or closer to the Sun

    The answer to this riddle lies in the metabolic activity of early photosynthetic lifeforms that slowly but surely transformed the chemical composition of Earth's atmosphere Some of these early organisms were photosynthetic relatives of modern cyanobacteria (bluegreen bacteria) In the process of photosynthesis carbon dioxide gas combined with water yields oxygen In Earth's early days an over the planet countless photosynthetic bacteriaperformed photosynthetic Together these ancient bacteria removed massive amounts of carbon dioxide from Earth's atmosphere by converting it to solid organic carbon These ancient bacteria also released huge quantities of oxygen into the atmosphere Other ancient bacteria consumed methane greatly reducing its amount in the atmosphere When our Sun later became hotter the continued removal of atmospheric carbon dioxide and methane by early bacteria kept Earth's climate from becoming too hot to sustain life Modern cyanobacteria still provide these valuable services today










    10 According to paragraph 4 ancient bacteria changed the chemical composition of Earth's atmosphere by performing all of the following activities EXCEPT

    raising the temperature of the atmosphere
    removing methane and carbon dioxide
    creating organic carbon
    producing oxygen

    Earths earliest atmosphere was transformed in ways that allowed the development of complex life forms








    Answer Choice
    Volcanoes changed Earth's earliest atmosphere in ways mat allowed life to develop and bacteria that used oxygen produced by photosynthesis further altered me atmosphere to what we find today

    When the sun became brighter early bacteria removed methane and carbon dioxide from me atmosphere preventing Earth from becoming too hot for He to survive

    Early bacteria provided the oxygen that was needed to support the metabolism of complex life forms and to form an ozone shield against deadly UV venation
    Volcanic carbon dioxide in Earthwarm enough for life begin during the time when the Sun was too dim to provide much warmth

    Earth has been awe to support life because its position relative to me Sun provided it with enough neat but not too much heat for early bacteria to evolve

    The Origins of Plant and Animal Domestication
    The emergence of plant and animal domestication represented a monumental change in the ways that humans interacted with Earth's resources the rate at which Earth's surface was modified and the rates of human population growth The development of agriculture was accompanied by fundamental changes in the organization of human society disparities in wealth hierarchies of power and urbanization























    16 According to paragraph 2 phrases such as 'plant and animal domestication’ and the invention of agriculture’ encourage which of the following wrong ideas

    Early farmers were fairly advanced in their knowledge of plants and animals
    Agriculture and animal domestication arose as a result of systematic study and experimentation
    The change from hunting and gathering to farming and raising animus occurred
    Early efforts to raise and animals were generally successful

    The change to land cultivation was a slow process becausehumans were familiar with the needs of relatively few plants and animals
    The cultivation of land occurred gradually as it was the product of extensive human experience plants and animals of value to humans
    Gardens fields and pastures were outgrowths of the desire for plants and animals that humans knew from long familiarity were good to eat wear or ride
    People learned about environmental requirements growth cycles and reproductive mechanisms through their long familiarity with plants and animals that they liked to eat ride and wear

    19 What do genetic studies suggest about the theory that 'cultivation and animal domestication were invented in one or two locations on Earth and then diffused from those centers of innovation’

    The theory underestimates the speed at which cultivation and animal domestication were diffused
    The theory underestimates the number of locations in which cultivation and animal
    The theory overemphasizes the importance of selective breeding in cultivation and animal domestication
    The theory overemphasizes the importance of cultivation and animals domestication to some groups of people














    For years scholars argued that the practices of cultivation and animal domestication were invented in one or two locations on Earth and then diffused from those centers of innovation Genetic studies are now showing that many different groups of people in many different places around the globe learned independently to create especially useful plants and animals though selective breedingProbably both independent invention and diffusion played a role in agricultural innovation Sometimes the ideas of domestication and cultivation were relayed to new places In other cases the farmers or herders themselves moved into new zones taking agriculture or improvements such as new tools or new methods or new plants and animals with them






















    20 According to paragraph 4 what advantages did the diet of huntergatherers probably have over an early agricultural diet

    It required less effort for them to acquire food that was nutritious
    It allowed their populations to expand across wider areas
    It provided a greater variety of foods needed for them to stay healthy
    It allowed them to have more children





    Paragraph 4 is marked with an arrow [ ]













    Scholars used to assume that people turned to cultivating instead of gathering their food either because they had to in order to feed burgeoning populations or because agriculture providedsuch obviously better nutrition It now seems that neither of these explanations is valid First of all the risk attached to exploring new food sources when there were already too many mouths to feed would be too great Second agriculture did not necessarily improve nutrition or supplies of food A varied diet based on gathered (and occasionally hunted) food probably provided a wider more secure range of nutrients than an early agriculturally based diet of only one or two cultivatedcrops More likely populations expanded after agricultural successes and not before

















    21 According to paragraph 4 what was the most likely relationship between population growth and food cultivation

    Population growth encouraged the development of food cultivation
    Population growth was dependent on the development of a varied diet of cultivated foods
    Successful methods of food cultivation were developed before population growth occurred

    Food cultivation was more successful in situations where population growth was limited

    Richard MacNeish an archaeologist who studied plant domestication in Mexico and Central America suggested that the chance to trade was at the heart of agricultural origins worldwide Many the known locations of agricultural innovation lie near early trade centers People in such places would have had at least two reasons to pursue cultivation and animal raising they wouldhave had access to new information plants and animals brought in by traders and they would have had a need for something to trade with the people passing through Perhaps then agriculture was at first just a profitable hobby for hunters and gatherers that eventually because of market demand grew into the primary source of sustenance Trade in agricultural products may also have been a hobby that led to trouble

















    23 Which of the following most accurately reflects MacNeish’s views discussed in paragraph 5 on efforts to cultivate plants and animals

    The efforts often failed because huntergatherers had limited access to new information about plants and animals

    The efforts were begun out of a desire to produce goods for trade rather than to increase their growers' food supplies

    The efforts were sometimes abandoned so huntergatherers could become involved in the more profitable activity of trading

    The efforts were not profitable until people began trading food that they had raised for other goods

    EN Anderson voting about the beginnings of agriculture in China suggests that agricultural production for trade may havebeen the impetus for several global situations now regarded as problems rapid population growth social inequalities environmental degradation and famine Briefly explained his theory suggests that groups turned to raising animals and plants in order to reap the profits of trading them As more labor was needed to supply the trade humans produced more children As populations expanded more resources were put into producing food for subsistence and for trade Gradually hunting and gathering technology was abandoned as populations with their demands for space destroyed natural habitats Meanwhile a minority elite emerged when the wealth provided by trade did not accrue equally to everyone Yet another problem was that a drought or other natural disaster could wipe out an entire harvest thus as ever larger populations depended solely on agriculture famine became more common

    25 According to paragraph 6 EN Anderson believes that all of the following were consequences of agricultural production for trade EXCEPT

    population growth resulting from the need for more labor
    harm to natural environments
    the uneven distribution of wealth
    conflict over resources needed to produce food

    Answer Choices

    The transition from hunting and gathering to raising plants and animals was gradual and led to significant changes in the organization or human societies
    Scholars now believe that agriculture and animal domestication began independently in many separate locations and men spread to new areas As trade in agricultural products grew and social inequalities arose new crops were developed specifically to feed the labor needed to support societies

    Although it is now dear that agriculture developed independently in many places often the most efficient techniques arose by combining practices of different cultures
    Agriculture became more widespread when human populations realized mat an agricultural diet supplemented through trade could provide as much nutrition as the huntergatherer diet
    The earliest reason for raising plants and animals may have been to provide goods for trade and such trade may account for me rise in social problems such as environmental destruction

    A tree will usually shed branches that use more carbohydrate than they produce
    Branches that are shaded usually do not receive enough light to produce all the carbohydrate they need
    If a tree gets rid of a branch it is usually because other branches lack enough carbohydrate to subsidize it
    If a branch is shaded and cannot produce as muchcarbohydrate as it needs it will usually be subsidized by otherbranches










    Preventing Overgrowth among Tree Branches

    One way trees prevent themselves from having too many branches is simply by shedding (dropping off) branches once they have fulfilled their purpose This happens as the tree gets bigger and grows new outer layers of foliage that shade the inner and lower branches In most large trees the center of the canopy n contains only large branches small branches and fine twigs are found only at the canopy's edge In the shaded center the small branches that would once have occupied that space are long gone Trees like the true cypresses regularly shed small twigs complete with leaves toward the end of summer Most other trees shed only branches that prove unproductive If a branch is not producing enough carbohydrate to cover its own running costs—ie it needs to be subsidized by other branches because for example it is being shaded and receives little light—it will usually be got rid of This prevents unproductive branches from being a drain on the tree and removes the wind drag (the force of air resistance) from useless branches



    31 According to paragraph 1 in what way do true cypresses differ from most other trees

    Most small twigs on true cypresses have leaves attached to them

    Branches are shed for reasons other than lack of light In dry parts of the world it is common for trees and shrubs to lose smallerbranches to save water Small branches have the thinnest bark (the protective outer covering of a tree) and greatest surface area and thus are the source of most water loss once the leaves have been lost The creosote bush of United States deserts selfprunes or removes parts of itself in the face of extreme heal or drought starting from the highest and most exposed twigs and working downward to bigger and bigger branches it's a desperate act because if the creosote bush loses too much wood it dies Shedding branches can also be useful for selfpropagation Most poplar trees and willow trees characteristic of waterways will readily drop branches which take root when washed up on muddy banks further downstream



    33 The word exposed’ in the passage is closest in meaning to

    distant
    unprotected
    easily replaced

    unproductive

    34 According to paragraph 2 what is true of the creosote bush of United States deserts

    It tends to grow small branches during dry parts of the year
    It loses more water through its bark than through ns leaves
    It loses its louver branches only after losing upper ones
    It sheds branches for the purpose of propagating itself

    36 All of the following are mentioned in paragraph 3 as reasons that branches can be lost EXCEPT

    being broken off by the wind
    being shed for propagation
    becoming rotten
    becoming too large in diameter





    Paragraph 3 is marked with an arrow [ ]


















    How are branches shed In the simplest cases dead branches rot and fall off or healthy branches are snapped off by wind snow and animals Some willows have a brittle zone at the base of small branches that encourage breaking in the wind seemingly for propagation Other cases of 'natural pruning' are more startling elm trees and to a certain extent others such as oaks have a reputation for dropping large branches (up to half a meter in diameter) with no warning on calm hot afternoons Such dramatic shedding appears to be due to a combination of internal water stress coupled with heat expansion affecting cracks and decayed wood




















    37 Which of the following is mentioned in paragraph 3 as playing a role in the shedding of large branches by elms and oaks on hot afternoons'

    The development of a brittle zone at the base of the branchesThe enlargement of cracks in the branches due to heat
    The rise of sudden bursts of wind that snap off decayed wood

    The seasonal need to propagate new trees

    38 According to paragraph 4 what limits the possibility of harm resulting from the deliberate shedding of branches

    Limiting the size of branches being shed to comparatively someones
    Forming a new layer of wood to seal the wounded area immediately after shedding
    Shedding leaves at the same time that branches are being shed

    Forming a layer of protective tissue before branch shedding begins




    Paragraph 4 is marked with an arrow [ ]













    Many trees however shed branches deliberately in this situation branches are shed in the same way as foliage in autumn by the prior formation of a corky layer that leaves the wound sealed over with cork which in turn is undergrown with wood the followingyear In hardwoods branches up to a meter in length and several centimeters in diameter can be shed normally after the leaves have fallen in the autumn (maples are unusual in casting branches mainly in spring and early summer) Oaks tend to shed small twigs up to the thickness of a pencil beech may shed larger ones and birches dump whole branches of dead twigs Pine trees shed their clusters of needles (which really are short branches) and members of the redwood family shed their small branchlets with leaves Typically in hardwood trees something around 10 percent of terminal branches are lost each year through a mixture of deliberate shedding and being broken off



















    39 The word congestion’ in the passage is closest in meaning to

    loss
    damage
    overcoming
    stress




























    Another way of reducing potential congestion is to make some branches smaller than others Branches in shade grow smaller than those in the sun But trees can also regulate branch length from within In many trees there is a clear distinction between long and short branches or shoots The long shoots build the framework of the tree making it bigger The job of the short shoots (called spur shoots by horticultural) is to produce leaves and commonly flowers at more or less the same position every year To maintain flexibility any one shoot can switch from long to short or vice versa depending on internal factors light levels and damage























    40 According to paragraph 5 what is the main purpose of short branches or shoots

    To regulate the length of large branches
    To increase the size of the trees
    To produce leaves and flowers

    To help create shaded areas

    TOEFL Writing

    Some companies in the United States have developed wellness programs that give rewards or incentives to employees for achieving certain healthrelated goals such as stopping smoking or losing weight The rewards and incentives include cash prizes extra vacation days or reduction of the employee's portion of health insurance fees (in the United States health insurance fees are usually shared between the employer and the employee) Several arguments have been put forward in favor of the incentive programs
    First the awards and incentives are an excellent motivational tool for people to adopt healthy lifestyles Many people would like to quit smoking or lose weight but have difficulty getting started The incentives provide the extra motivation they need One study suggests that giving people a cash incentive d^750 significantly increases their chances of quitting smoking And in another study people who got cash incentives were more likely to lose weight than those who did not
    Second the advocates of incentive programs argue that rewarding people who are willing to adopt healthier lifestyles is only being fair People who exercise eat healthy diets and maintain a healthy weight for example are less likely to incur medical costs Such people deserve to pay smaller health insurance fees or get more vacation days
    Third although the wellness incentives cost a lot of money for companies the incentives save companies money in the long term Losses in employee productivity due to illness can be very expensive for employers programs that help prevent health problems are cheap by comparison For example incentive programs have been shown to reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease The cost ofthe incentives given by a company to its employees to maintain their health through prevention programs is much less than the financial losses to a company caused by employees missing work due to illness and hospitalization

    Speaking

    Task 1 Which of the following activities would you be more interested in doing Teaching children teaching adults to use computers or cleaning city park

    Task 2 Some people prefer take a job with a single task others prefer to do multiple tasks on a job Which do you prefer

    Task 3
      The school plans to start a student art club so that students can learn about art and still pursue their major and the club will offer affordable museum tickets for students to see art
    The man in the conversation agrees
      First he really loved art in high school but now he majors in chemistry and doesn’t have time for art The new art club would be a good chance for him to pursue art and he doesn’t have to worry about how it would affect his major because he doesn’t need to go to an actual class and get credits
      Second the museum is too expensive for many students to go to so this would be a good chance for them to enjoy art they could not see before

    Task 4
    The professor talks about logical consequences which means teachers use logical consequences to link students’ wrong behavior with its negative consequences to correct it
    In the example when the professor was teaching little kids sometimes he would let them use pens to paint A girl called Mary would paint on the desk and damage the facilities He first punished her by not allowing her to play outside with other kids but it didn’t work Mary painted on the desk again This time the professor warned her that if she didn’t stop the behavior he would not let her paint next time So Mary corrected her wrong behavior afterwards

    Task 5
    The man’s problem is that he’s moving into a new apartment and needs to move his old stuff to the new apartment and he’s thinking about how The first solution is that he can rent a truck but the small trucks are all rented out and big trucks are expensive
    The second solution is he can borrow his friend’s car but it’s kind of small and he will have to go back and forth a few times
