in Column II. Write the letter only.
Column I
_______1. Questions can be many different things. A question can be an inquiring sentence which asks
for a reply, as in "I have a question for you." The word can also refer to whatever subject matter is at hand,
as in the sentence, "The question of ethics is a hot topic nowadays.
_______2. I believe many men, if not all, have their own standards of an ideal girl apart mostly from the
most obvious one which is more of a physical judgment with women Of course, I can't deny that women

_______3. Global climate change resulting from the accumulation of greenhouse gases, for example is
likely to have significant health effects, both direct and indirect. An average global temperature rise of 3-

below her, so is Canada to the United States. Both countries were gouged by the retreating glaciers, which
left them on the subsistence level as far as good farmland was considered. It also gave them both a
heritage of spectacular beauty uncrowded by cities and towns, and of this they were both inclined to boast.

before.
_____b. We reached Louisville in time—at least the neighborhood of it. We stuck hard and fast on the
rocks in the middle of the river, and lay there four days. I was now beginning to feel a strong sense of being
a part of the boat’s family, a sort of infant son to the captain and younger brother to the officers.
_____c. I kept my hat off all the time, and stayed where the wind and the sun could strike me, because I
wanted to get the bronzed and weather-beaten look of an old traveler. Before the second day was half
gone I experienced a joy which filled me with the purest gratitude; for I saw that the skin had begun to
blister and peel off my face and neck. I wished that the boys and girls at home could see me now.
_____d. I packed my valise, and took passage on an ancient tub called the ‘Paul Jones,’ for New Orleans.
For the sum of sixteen dollars I had the scarred and tarnished splendors of ‘her’ main saloon principally to
myself, for she was not a creature to attract the eye of wiser travelers.
_____e. I crept away, and courted solitude for the rest of the day. I did not go to dinner; I stayed away from
