Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each
of the question.
Pollutants are clogging up the atmosphere above our planet and trapping the sun's heat. That
makes our planet warmer, which causes glaciers to melt, crazy weather patterns to develop, and
natural disasters spread like wildfires.
But there are other consequences that people don't always associate with climate change. One
surprising fact about global warming is that it makes people more aggressive.
As the world gets hotter, tempers also get fierier. A new study found that violent crimes and even
war become more likely as temperatures rise. Heart rates tend to be elevated in warm weather,
so people are prepped for a physical response to a situation. That’s not to say we're headed for a
violent end as Earth warms up, though. Advances in everything from technology to health have
sparked a decline in conflict. It's just that global warming might be slowing that decline. Climate
change increases the amount of smog in the air and causes plants to produce more pollen,
according to the Natural Resources Defense Council. Those combine to make breathing harder
for people, which can be especially tricky for people with asthma and other respiratory illnesses.
Question 34: What is trapping the sun’s heat?
A. The atmosphere B. Pollutant
C. Glaciers D. The atmosphere above our planet
Question 35: According to the paragraph 1, all of the following are results of our planet getting
warmer EXCEPT
A. Melting glaciers B. Increasing greenhouse gas
C. Natural disasters like wildfires D. Crazy weather patterns to develop
Question 36: The word “it” in paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. other consequences B. global warming
C. surprising fact D. climate change
Question 37: The word “elevated” is closest in meaning to

Question 38: What is the topic of the passage?
A. A global warming surprising fact B. Aggressive modem people
C. The bad effects of global warming D. A study on global warming
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct word
or phrase that best fits each the numbered blanks.
“One month on since the devastating earthquake hit Türkiye and Syria, the scale of the
humanitarian response has yet to meet the enormous needs of displaced Syrian families and
children (39)_____have suffered from compounded crises for almost 12 years now,” said Johan
Mooij, director of World Vision’s Syria crisis response. “It is crucial that (40)_____ access
channels to northwest Syria remain open, and that aid deliveries are scaled up through earmarked
funding for the emergency response. Only this will ensure that children’s mental health needs are
covered, and their trauma addressed.”
Snow and bitter winter weather have placed children at great risk of hypothermia (41)_____ they
struggle to survive in sub-zero temperatures. Many survivors have had to sleep in cars, outside,
or in makeshift shelters. Doctors (42)_____ that children are also at risk of exposure to
waterborne diseases such as cholera or Hepatitis A due to the damage to shelters and water
infrastructure.
These children are now even more vulnerable to family separation, exploitation, and abuse. As
buildings are deemed unsafe, they also are unable to return to school.
“In northern Syria, in particular, the threats to children from abuse were already extreme. The
soaring poverty, within a warzone, now devastated by earthquakes, has created an unimaginable
number of challenges, and suffering for children,” says Johan, director of the Syria crisis
response in Amman, Jordan. “This earthquake has created the perfect environment for a health
crisis -fueled by reduced healthcare capacity and disease (43)_____.”

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
A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake, one of the
world's largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake
Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The
lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warmed
by geothermal heat from the earth's core. The thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates
it from the frigid temperatures on the surface.
The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey
of the area. Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of
water of indeterminate size. It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite
made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an
extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake.
The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the
scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have
survived for thousands upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and
elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in more exposed areas. The downside of
the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in such a harsh
climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake
without actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to
accomplish this.

A. level B. ice C. region D. radar
Question 45: All of the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that it .
A. was conducted by air B. made use of radio waves
C. could not determine the lake's exact size D. was controlled by a satellite
Question 46: It can be inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if .
A. there were no lake underneath B. the lake were not so big
C. Antarctica were not so cold D. radio waves were not used
Question 47: The word "microbes" in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by which of the
following?
A. Pieces of dust B. Tiny bubbles
C. Tiny organisms D. Rays of light
Question 48: Lake Vostok is potentially important to scientists because it
A. can be studied using radio waves
B. may contain uncontaminated microbes
C. may have elevated levels of ultraviolet light
D. has already been contaminated
Question 49: The last paragraph suggests that scientists should be aware of
A. further discoveries on the surface of Antarctica
B. problems with satellite-borne radar equipment
C. ways to study Lake Vostok without contaminating it
D. the harsh climate of Antarctica
