The New Zealand-born Ernest Rutherford (1871-1937) discovered in 1911 that atoms have a tiny, dense nucleus. Rutherford and his colleagues were shooting positively charged alpha particles at a very thin sheet of gold foil. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons and so have a positive charge. Most of the alpha particles went straight through, but some changed path and some even bounced back. This showed that the atoms's positive charge was concentrated in a small nucleus, which was changing the path of the alpha particles. Most of the atom is made up of empty space.

Q. Which of the following is correct according to the passage?

(a) Ernest Rutherford discovered that the atom has a nucleus.

Re: Experiments on Memory of Mice

Date: 25 May, 2002

After five months of conducting experiments on whether mice can remember experiences, I have found the following.

Procedures: Ten mice were put in a case that had three doors. Behind one door there was nothing, behind another door was an electric shock and behind the third door was a dish with cookies. The mice were introduced to the cage and the doors once, then were displaced. After 10 minutes, the mice were reintroduces to the cage seven times. I recorded the learning pattern of the mice.

Results: Eight of the ten mice completed all the tasks. However, out of those eight successful mice, seven did not seem to remember what they had learned in previous trips to the cage: they repeatedly returned to the door that had the electric shock. Only one mouse was able to remember the door that contained the cookies. I examined this mouse to see if there was something unusual about it and found nothing.

Q. What kind of conclusion is the writer likely to draw?

(a) Training mice seems easier than expected.

(b) Electric shock affects the mice's memory negatively.

(c) Most mice do not appear to have any memory.

(d) The learning patterns of mice are very predictable.

The age of humanism coincided closely with the age of the Reformation.

(a) Humanists wanted society to embrace church-based ideals.

In the first year of the war, perhaps the most important struggle was within the colonies themselves. Because neither the British nor the American leaders were prepared to compromise, few doubted that the issue could be resolved by means of full-scale war. But many colonists remained deeply loyal to the British and, despite the coercion of the Revolutionaries, unwilling to wage war against the mother country. Nearly 100,000 of these Royalists were forced into exile, while those who remained suffered ostracism, disfranchisement, confiscation of property, and other penalties for their loyalty to the King. Still, the American Revolution produced none of the wholesale imprisonment or executions of dissidents that have marked other revolutions.

Q. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the Royalists who remained in America?

(a) They were ostracized.

(b) Their private property was seized from them.

(c) They were unable to vote.

Atlantic hurricane season starts Saturday and the U.S. mainland is overdue for a hit. The last several years have been more active than average in term of the number of hurricanes forming at sea. Yet two years have passed without one hitting the U.S. coastline. Forecasters say the uncommon streak of good weather can't hold forever. "We've basically been lucky. And we shouldn't expect to go on being lucky," says Michael Burner, hurricane research division director for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. NOAA experts say Atlantic hurricane season will have a normal to slightly above-normal level of storm activity, with nine to 13 tropical storms, six to eight of which will become hurricanes. The season lasts through November 30.

Human activities have been changing the natural environment for thousands of years. Since the beginning of industrialization, however, the effects have increased dramatically, particularly on the chemical constituents of the atmosphere. Societies everywhere have witnessed and perhaps contributed to changes caused by acid rain, ozone depletion, and air pollution.

There was a time when people ventured into the jungles of Thailand and Cambodia to capture wild elephants, using them to do their heavy work for them. The result was that magnificent creatures became an endangered species in the region. The population is now down to fewer than 45,000, a situation so desperate that millions of dollars have been put aside for their protection and preservation. For more than seven centuries, elephants were Thailand's primary means of transportation. Now the people of that country must give preference to the future of that animal over their own needs. Otherwise elephants may die out.

Q. Which of the following is correct according to the article?

(a) Less and less money is going to the protection of elephants in Thailand.

(b) Thai people have begun to think seriously about the future of elephants.

(c) Elephants are highly protected and their numbers are increasing in Thailand.

Giant pandas, ocelots and the Asian gaur. What do all these animals have in common? Not only have been immortalized as stuffed animals, they also face the looming specter of extinction. Now, thanks to the painstaking work by researchers in Massachusetts, these rare beasts may be given a new lease on life. How's that possible? It's through the wonders of cloning. For example, by using the skin cell from a living gaur, scientist at Advanced Cell Technology fused the genetic material for the ox-like animal with the egg of an everyday American cow. Bessie, as the bovine is known, is expected to deliver the gaur, named Noah in the next month or so. In a twist guaranteed to make bulls more than a little nervous, Noah was conceived without the help of a father; once the cow genetic material was removed from Bessie's egg and replaced with the gaur information, the egg was artificially induced to begin dividing.

Q. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

(a) With the help of cloning, the number of endangered species may decline.

(b) Scientists used the egg of a cow and the sperm of an ox to produce Noah.

(c) Giant pandas, ocelots and the Asian gaur are considered to be immortal animals.

(d) Advanced Cell Technology expects to develop a baby panda within the next month.
