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
(3)Lately, however, blooms – or huge, dense populations – of Pfiesteria are appearing in coastal waters, and in such large concentrations the dinoflagellates become ruthless killers The blooms emit powerful toxins that weaken and entrap fish that swim into the area The toxins eventually cause the fish to develop large bleeding sores through which the tiny creatures attack, feasting on blood and flesh Often the damage is astounding During a 1991 fish kill, which was blamed on Pfiesteria on North Carolina’s Neuse River, nearly one billion fish died and bulldozers had to be brought in to clear the remains from the river Of course, such events can have a devastating effect on commercially important fish, but that is just one way that Pfiesteria causes problems The toxins it emits affect human skin in much the same way as they affect fish skin Additionally, fisherman and others who have spent time near Pfiesteria blooms report that the toxins seem to get into the air, where once inhaled they affect the nervous system, causing severe headaches, blurred vision, nausea, breathing difficulty, short-term memory loss and even cognitive impairment
For a while, it seemed that deadly Pfiesteria blooms were a threat only to North Carolina waters, but the problem seems to be spreading More and more, conditions along the east coast seem to be favorable for Pfiesteria Researchers suspect that pollutants such as animal waste from livestock operations, fertilizers washed from farmlands and waste water from mining operations have probably all combined to promote the growth of Pfiesteria in coastal waters
39 What is true of Pfiesteria?
A It seems to flourish in the presence of certain pollutants B It has been a menace to fish and humans for over 3000 years C It is the oldest life form on earth
D In large concentrations, it poses a threat to fish but not to humans 40.What is the main function of the toxins emitted by the dinoflagellates?
A They are quick-acting poisons that kill fish within minutes
B They weaken the fish just long enough for the tiny creatures to attack C They damage the nervous system of potential predators
D They cause fish to develop wounds on which creatures feed
41 The word “astounding” in the passage is closest in meaning to _.
A continual B incredible C spectacular D apprehensive 42 What were bulldozers used for in the Neuse River?
A cleaning up the sediment at the bottom of the river B excavating holes to bury the dead fish
C scooping up the vast number of dead fish in the water D removing the huge amount of Pfiesteria from the river
43 According to the paragraph 2, what will NOT happen if one breathes the toxic air?
A vomiting B visual impairments
C circulatory difficulty D terrible headaches 44 What is especially worrying about Pfiesteria blooms?
A Conditions are becoming increasingly favourable for their spread B They are fatal to humans who come in contact with them
C They have devastated the fishing industry in U.S coastal waters D Researchers have no idea as to exactly what causes them
45 All of the following are true, according to the passage, EXCEPT _ A Pfiesteria caused the death of about one billion fish in the late 1990s
B animal and chemical waste from farmlands, livestock and mining operations may contribute to the expansion of Pfiesteria
C Pfiesteria was not commonly noticed despite scientific findings
D the toxic subtances emitted by Pfiesteria have a similar effect on human and fish skins
