Passage Three
Question 41-46 are based on the following passage:
No species more clearly represents America’s changing view of wildlife than the gray wolf. From the first arrivals of settlers in the 1600s until only the last couple of decades, wolves were generally viewed as a dangerous threat in this country. Evidence of this is found in the laws passed in both the colonies and later the states, which provided for a cash payment for each wolf skin turned over to local officials. Not only were such laws a means of obtaining much needed money, but it also encouraged the use of the wolf’s fur as clothing. This double benefit to the hunters succeeded in effectively wiping out the wolf population in most regions of the country. By 1950, wolves had been done away with everywhere in the lower 48 states except in the wildest part of northern Minnesota. This was the result of efforts to kill all wolves.
Most people now recognize the mistake of this persecution and understand the value of such vicious animals as the wolf within the wildlife community. The National Wildlife Federation has led the fight to get the government to pass a law protecting the wolf, in order to increase the population of the animal steadily. As a result, Congress has passed a law including this animal under the Endangered Species Act. Between 150 and 200 wolves are now wandering freely in Yellowstone National Park and the NWF is now working with both public and private organizations to make sure that wolves will be able to live in suitable habitats elsewhere in the country.

A. in the lower 48 states B. in northern Minnesota C. everywhere except Minnesota D. Yellowstone National Park

A. the preservation of wolves in Minnesota B. the steady increase of the wolf population C. the fight with large vicious animals
D. the American view that wolves should be killed
44 The word ―habitats‖ in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaning
to ______. A. groups B. places C. seasons D. periods 45 NWF in the passage means:
6
A. New World Funds
B. New Woman Foundation C. National Wildlife Federation D. National Wolf Federation
Passage Four
Questions 46 -50 are based on the following passage:
Before the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season. Drying, smoking, and salting could preserve meat for a short time, but the availability of fresh meat, like that of fresh ilk, was very limited there ws no way to prevent food from going bad. But in 1810 a French inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of condensing and preserving milk. Canned goods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860’s, but supplies remained low because cans had to be made by hand, By 1880, however, inventors had built machines that made it possible to produce cans from tinplates in large numbers Suddenly all kinds of food could be preserved and bought at all times of the year.
Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily diets. Growing city populations created a demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable farmers to raise more produce. Railroad refrigeration cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great distances and to preserve them for longer periods. Thus, by the 1890’s, people living in northern cities could enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at most, for up to six months of the year. In addition, increased use of iceboxes enabled families to store perishables. An easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870’s, and by 1900 the nation had more than two thousand commercial ice plants, most of which made home deliveries. The icebox became a fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized refrigerator takes its place in the 1920’s and 1930’s.

A. causes of food going bad
B. commercial production of ice

A. decreased in number B. were on an irregular schedule C. increased in cost D. occurred only in the summer
48 All the following preservations are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT ______.
A. drying B. canning C. cold storage D. using chemicals
49 The word ―fixture‖ in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaning
7

A. equipment B. food C. grower D. delivery
nd
50 The word ―perishables‖ in the 2 paragraph means that _________. A. food that is likely to decay B. food that is easy to store C. food that is not easy to store D. food that is unlikely to decay
