Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to the following questions. Algae is a primitive form of life, a singlecelled or simple multiplecelled organism that is able to conduct the process of photosynthesis. It is generally found in water but can also be found elsewhere, growing on such surfaces as rocks or trees. The various types of algae are classified according to pigment. Bluegreen algae, or Cyanophyta, can grow at very high temperatures and under highintensity light. This type of algae is the oldest form of life with photosynthetic capabilities. Fossilized remains of blue green algae more than 3.4 billion years old have been found in parts of Africa. Green algae, or Chlorophyta, is generally found in fresh water. It reproduces on the surfaces of enclosed bodies of water such as ponds or lakes and has the appearance of a fuzzy green coating on the surface of the water. Brown algae, or Phaeophyta, grows in shallow, temperate water. This type of algae is the largest in size and is most recognizable as a type of seaweed. Its long stalks can be enmeshed on the ocean floor, or it can float freely on the oceans surface. Red algae, or Rhodophyta, is a small, delicate organism found in the deep waters of the subtropics.This type of algae has an essential role in the formation of coral reefs: it secretes lime from the seawater to foster the formation of limestone deposits. Question 36: What is the authors main purpose? A. To show what color algae is B. To differentiate the various classifications of algae C. To describe where algae is found D. To clarify the appearance of different types of algae Question 37: Which of the following is NOT true about algae? A. All types have one cell only. B. It can be found out of water. C. It can use photosynthesis. D. It is not a relatively new form of life. Question 38: The word pigment at the end of the first paragraph means________.

Sound moves from its source to the ear by wavelike fluctuations in air pressure, something like the crests and troughs of ocean waves. Once way to keep from hearing sound is to use ear plugs. Another way is to cancel out the sound with antisound. Using a noisemaker controlled by a microprocessor, engineers have produced sound waves that are half a wavelength out of phase with those of the noise to be quieted each crest is matched to a trough, and vice versa. Once the researchers have recorded the offending sound, a microprocessor calculates the amplitude and wavelength of sound that will cancel out the crests and troughs of noise. It then produces an electric current that is amplified and fed to a loudspeaker, which produces antisound and wipes out the noise. If the antisound goes out of synchronization, a microphone picks up the leftover sound and sends it back to the microprocessor, which changes the phase of the anti sound just enough to cause complete silence. The research team has concentrated on eliminating lowfrequency noise from ship engines,
