PART 1: MULTIPLE CHOICE (0.125 x 64 = 8.0p)
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word or
phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
The Planets of Jupiter
The largest of the giant gas planets, Jupiter, with a volume 1,300 times greater than Earth’s, contains
more than twice the mass of all the other planets combined. It is thought to be a gaseous and fluid planet
without solid surfaces, Had it been somewhat more massive, Jupiter might have attained internal
temperatures as high as the ignition point for nuclear reactions, and it would have flamed as a star in its
own right. Jupiter and the other giant planets are of a low-density type quite distinct from the terrestrial
planets: they are composed predominantly of such substances as hydrogen, helium, ammonia, and
methane, unlike terrestrial planets. Much of Jupiter’s interior might be in the form of liquid, metallic
hydrogen, Normally, hydrogen is a gas, but under pressures of millions of kilograms per square
centimeter, which exist in the deep interior of Jupiter, the hydrogen atoms might lock together to form a
liquid with the properties of a metal. Some scientists believe that the innermost core of Jupiter might be
rocky, or metallic like the core of Earth.
Jupiter rotates very fast, once every 9.8 hours. As a result, its clouds, which are composed largely of
frozen and liquid ammonia, have been whipped into alternating dark and bright bands that circle the planet
at different speeds in different latitudes. Jupiter’s puzzling Great Red Spot changes size as it hovers in the

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 from 45 to 54.
Cities develop as a result of functions that they can perform. Some functions result directly from the
ingenuity of the citizenry, but most functions result from the needs of the local area and of the surrounding
hinterland (the region that supplies goods to the city and to which the city furnishes services and other
goods). Geographers often make a distinction between the situation and the site of a city. Situation refers
to the general position in relation to the surrounding region, whereas site involves physical characteristics
of the specific location. Situation is normally much more important to the continuing prosperity of a city.
If a city is well situated in regard to its hinterland, its development is much more likely to continue.
Chicago, for example, possesses an almost unparalleled situation: it is located at the southern end of a
huge lake that forces east-west transportation lines to be compressed into its vicinity, and at a meeting of
significant land and water transport routes. It also overlooks what is one of the world’s finest large
farming regions. These factors ensured that Chicago would become a great city regardless of the
disadvantageous characteristics of the available site, such as being prone to flooding during thunderstorm
activity.
Similarly, it can be argued that much of New York City’s importance stems from its early and
continuing advantage of situation. Philadelphia and Boston both originated at about the same time as New
York and shared New York’s location at the western end of one of the world’s most important oceanic
trade routes, but only New York possesses an easy-access functional connection (the Hudson-Mohawk
Lowland) to the vast Midwestern Hinterland. This account does not alone explain New York’s primacy,

A. long-term growth and prosperity

B. ability to protect its citizenry

C. possession of favorable weather conditions

D. need to import food supplies

location EXCEPT its ____.

The author mentions each of the following as an advantage of Chicago’s

A. hinterland

B. nearness to a large lake

C. flat terrain

D. position in regard to transport routes

but it does include several important factors. Among the many aspects of situation that help to explain
why some cities grow and others do not, original location on a navigable waterway seems particularly

the striking difference in species richness between tropical and temperate regions.
For example, in 1875 one biologist pointed out the diversity of butterflies in the Amazon when he
mentioned that about 700 species were found within an hour's walk, whereas the total number found on the
British islands did not exceed 66, and the whole of Europe supported only 321. This early comparison of
tropical and temperate butterfly richness has been well confirmed.
A general theory of diversity would have to predict not only this difference between temperate and
tropical zones, but also patterns within each region, and how these patterns vary among different animal
and plant groups. However, for butterflies, variation of species richness within temperate or tropical
regions, rather than between them, is poorly understood. Indeed, comparisons of numbers of species among
the Amazon basin, tropical Asia, and Africa are still mostly "personal communication" citations, even for
vertebrates. In other words, unlike comparison between temperate and tropical areas, these patterns are still
in the documentation phase.
In documenting geographical variation in butterfly diversity, some arbitrary, practical decisions are
made. Diversity, number of species, and species richness are used synonymously; little is known about the
evenness of butterfly distribution. The New World butterflies make up the preponderance of examples
