Part Two Reading Comprehension
Directions:
In this part there are 4 passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers. Choose the one you think is the best answer. Mark your choice on the Answer Sheet by drawing with a pencil a short bar across the corresponding letter in the brackets.
Questions 11-15 are based on the following passage:
Passage 1
If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1937), concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!
11. Huntington based his conclusions on ___________.
A. records of change in his own intelligence

A. a great effect on everyone’s intelligence

Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage:
The potential of closed circuit television and other new electronic teaching tools is so great that it is inspiring to imagine “The school of tomorrow”. Televised lessons will be given in a central building having perhaps four or five master studios. The lessons will be carried into classrooms all over a city, or even an entire country. After a televised lesson has been given, the classroom teacher will take over for the all important “follow-up” period. The students will ask troublesome questions and difficult points will be cleared up through discussion.
The teacher in the class will have additional electronic tools. On the teacher’s desk, the traditional bright red apple will have been replaced by a multiple-control panel and magnetic tape players. The tape machines will run pre-recorded lessons which pupils will follow by head phones. The lessons will be specifically connected closely to the students’ levels of ability. For instance, while the class as a whole studies history, each student will receive an individual history lesson directed to his particular level of ability.
Should questions arise, the students will be able to talk directly to the teacher on individual “intercom ” without disturbing the rest of the class. In this way, the teacher will be able to conduct as many as three classes at the same time.

Questions21-26 are based on the following passage:
Sequoyah was a young Cherokee Indian, son of a white trader and an Indian woman. At an early age, he became fascinated by “the talking leaf,” an expression that he used to describe the white man’s written records. Although many believe this “talking leaf’ to be a gift from the Great Spirit, Sequoyah refused to accept that theory. Like other Indians of the period, he was illiterate, but his determination to remedy the situation led to the invention of a unique 86-character alphabet based on the sound patterns that he heard.
His family and friends thought him mad, but while recovering from a hunting ac-cident, he diligently and independently set out to create a form of communication for his own people as well as for other Indians. In 1821, after twelve years of work, he had successfully developed a written language that would enable thousands of Indians to read and write.
Sequoyah’s desire to preserve words and events for later generation has caused him to
be remembered among the important inventors. The giant redwood trees of California, called “sequoias” in his honor, will further imprint his name in history.

In the United States, the first day nursery was opened in 1854. Nurseries were established in various areas during the first half of the 19th century, most of 31 were charitable. Both in Europe and in the U. S., the day-nursery movement received great encouragement during the First World War, when 32 of manpower caused the industrial employment of unprecedented numbers of women. The number of nurseries in the U. S. rose 33 , which was accomplished without any government aid. During the years following the First World War, 34 , Federal State, and local governments gradually began to exercise a measure of control 35 the day nurseries.
The 36 of the Second World War was quickly followed by an increase in the number of day nurseries in almost all countries, as women were again called upon to replace men in the factories. On this 37 the U.S. government immediately came to the support of the nursery schools, allocating $ 6,000,000 in July, 1942, for a nursery-school program for the children of working mothers. By the end of the war, more than 100,000 children were being cared 38 in day-care centers receiving Federal 39 . Soon afterward, the Federal government drastically cut down its expenditures for this purpose and later abolished them, causing a sharp drop in the number of nursery schools in
