following questions. Write your answers in corresponding numbered boxes provided. (15 points)

On the surface, a desert appears to be one of the harshest environments on Earth, yet a

remarkable variety of plants have adapted to thrive in this dry climate. Despite their origins in different

locations around the globe, desert plants have developed similar strategies for surviving in arid

environments. Some plants have adapted in such a way that it is hard to tell them apart, even though

they belong to very different biological families. One useful way to classify, and thus better understand,

desert plants is to examine the evolution of certain survival strategies, which are shared across

geographic and biological boundaries.

In general, the survival strategies of desert plants can be divided into two kinds: adaptation for

quick use of ephemeral resources (“maximum variance behavior”) and adaptation for the best use of

poor but more permanent resources (“minimum variance behavior”). The former strategy involves

adaptation to environmental changes, such as seasonal availability of water. This is observed in desert

annuals and perennials alike. Such plants tend to grow rapidly and produce many seeds under the right

conditions. The latter strategy involves adaptation to the worst possible conditions, which can be seen

in succulents, true xerophytes, and grasses. These plants usually grow slowly, use water efficiently,

and exhibit passive cooling.

Water scarcity and heat are the key factors limiting the survival of desert plants. Plants that

have adapted to the worst possible conditions have evolved ways for quickly acquiring and storing

water to ensure their survival. [A] Depending on strategies and physical adaptations, they can be

divided into either succulents or drought-resistant plants. [B] For the most part, succulents have

evolved extensive, shallow root systems to quickly absorb water during brief periods of heavy rainfall.

Water is then stored in the fleshy tissue of their thick trunks or lobes as well as in the roots. The cactus

is a good example of a succulent. To retain water, succulents have waxy coaxings on their skin and a

modified system of respiration. The stomata (surface pores), through which the plant takes in carbon

dioxide and releases oxygen, open only at night when temperatures are cooler and less water from the

plant will evaporate. [C] Unlike most other plants, a succulent stores all or most of its chlorophyll, the

chemical essential to photosynthesis, in its stem, skin, or other outer tissues, rather than concentrating

it in the leaves. Doing this places it in a strong, well-watered part of the plant, rather than in an

appendage susceptible to drying out and dropping off. [D]

Drought-resistant plants, or xerophytes, come in many forms including true xerophytes,

deciduous plants, and grasses. Xerophytic shrubs, such as the five species of creosote bush, are the

most abundant type of vegetation in most arid environments. They are able to withstand desiccation in

severe droughts without dying. Some have evolved small leaves with special coatings to reduce loss of

water through evaporation. Others have replaced leaves with thorns or spines. While succulent roots

form shallow, dense webs, xerophytes tend to develop deep root networks that pull water out of

soil other desert plants cannot reach. For example, the roots of the mesquite bush, said to have the

deepest root systems among desert plants, can reach depths of up to eighty feet.

Succulents and xerophytes, on one hand, have physically adapted to gather and retain water to

survive long periods of drought. Drought-avoiding plants, on the other hand, escape unfavorable

conditions by perishing. These include annuals and perennials. Because profuse seed development is

crucial to the survival of most annual species, they tend to produce far more flowers than other types

of desert plants. The desert marigold of the American southwest, for example, has adapted to seasonal

changes in rainfall by growing rapidly, bursting into a brilliant display of yellow flowers, and then

dropping a cascade of seeds before dying. In some cases, annuals complete their entire life cycle in a

matter of a few weeks or months. Their seeds may remain inactive for up to ten years while waiting

for wetter conditions. Perennials, such as the ocotillo, may go dormant during dry periods, spring to

life when it rains, and then return to dormancy in a process that may occur up to five times per year.

86. According to paragraph 1, which of the following is true of desert plants?

A. They are hard to see in the harsh desert landscape.

B. They have evolved similar features, regardless of geographic origins.

C. They have evolved from different families that exchanged survival strategies.

D. They all look essentially the same.

87. The word “ephemeral” in the passage is closest in meaning to _______.

A. minimal

B. yearly

C. short-lived

D. abundant

88. Which of the following square brackets [A], [B], [C], or [D] best indicates where in the paragraph

the sentence “All of these adaptations together make succulents particularly well suited to dry

climates.” can be inserted.

A. [A]

B. [B]

C. [C]

D. [D]

89. Why does the author mention the action of stomata in the passage?

A. To explain how chlorophyll works

B. To emphasize a unique adaptation of succulents

C. To illustrate that cacti have no leaves

D. To describe the basic parts of a succulent

90. The word “Others” in the passage refers to _______.

A. grasses

B. shrubs

C. coatings

D. leaves

91. Which of the following best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the

passage? A. At the same time that xerophytes evolved their thick webs of low-lying roots, succulents

formed thin networks to reach surface water.

B. Both succulents and xerophytes form long, dense networks of roots in order to reach water

within the soil that non-desert plants could not reach.

C. Because of their long roots systems developed to reach water deep within the soil, xerophytes

have become more dominant in desert environments than succulents.

D. In contrast to xerophytes, which produce long root systems to tap water deep within the soil,

succulents develop a thick web of roots just below the soil surface.

92. According to paragraph 4, thorns on xerophytes _________.

A. are similar to blades of grass

B. can reach water very far underground

C. are what some plants have instead of leaves

D. help keep the plants from being eaten by animals

93. In what form do drought-avoiding annuals wait for wetter weather?

A. stems

B. flowers

C. roots

D. seeds

94. The word “dormant” in the passage is closet in meaning to ________.

SPACE FLIGHT TOURISM

Falcon 1's successful launch on 28th of September was an outstanding achievement for the

fledging space tourism industry. When a rocket made by Space X in Hawthorne, California, reached

an orbit of 500 kilometres from the Earth, it became possible for privately developed rocket too.

Two days after the launch, Virgin Galactic started a business with the US National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration which will be accepted by US scientists as a way of researching

climate change using a spacecraft.

No doubt the civilian space flight industry is an exciting area and this was apparent at the

However, in spite of increasing confidence, it is also necessary to be cautious: can a civilian

spacecraft be safe like holiday airlines? Gerardine Goh, a lawyer at DLR, the German Aerospace

Centre

Bonn

and

member

Germany's

delegation

the

UN's

Office

Outer

Space

Affairs reported that as it is not global, there needs to be enforceable regulations in place to

guarantee

the

safety

civilian

spacecraft.

She

said,

"Ships

should

equipped

seaworthy,

aircraft

should

equipped

airworthy

but

there

legislation

place

to ensure that a spacecraft is spaceworthy."

At the International Association for the Advancement of Space Safety, Goh is planning to press

the UN to force civilian space operators to warrant which spacecraft are designed and built to minimum

safety standards. She says, "Mass commercial space flight does not currently have international safety

regulations." and "We deeply need a UN treaty which offers us this."

One way companies are planning to transport tourists into space is with a "mother ship'' an

aircraft which carries a rocket at an altitude of 16 kilometres before launching it, says Goh.

"But with launching the aircraft, the ICAO's air safety standards only apply to the mother ship

and

the

rocket

capsule

until

they

are

separated.

After

that,

not

have

any

safety

standards for the capsule Itself. It is a critical problem."

From 16 kilometres to the Karman line, the point of 100 kilometres up where space is

considered to start, the rocket will be travelling within a legal vacuum. Here, lawyers cannot agree on

whether it is a plane or a rocket. Some Insist that if you are in a well-equipped functioning rocket, more

strict safety measures should try to be incorporated into the spaceship's design.

The other aspects of the UN's 1967 treaty for outer space exploration may be discussed again

if civilian space flight turns out to be successful. For example, countries must consider how to rescue

and repatriate astronauts crashing or landing in their land. Also, governments have to decide if the

money generated by the space flight industry will be enough to cover the cost of rescuing space tourists.

Civilian space flight companies are very aware of the risks in this field as they have already

had the experience of dealing with a tragedy. Unfortunately, three engineers were killed and another

three were severely injured in 2007, when nitrous oxide rocket fuel suddenly exploded during fuel flow

tests

California.

The

company

establishing

WhiteKnightTwo, a carrier aircraft and Spaceship Two, a six-seater rocket for Virgin Galactic. The

facility was regulated by California's health and safety regulator, and it has now modified its technology

to decrease the risks.

However, space flight's dangers are far from just fuel issues. According to Laurent Gathier of

Dassault Aviation developing the VSH of a rocket powered sub-orbital tourist space plane, other critical

safety factors are with depressurization risks, passengers close to the engine and the activities of flight

trajectories including cosmic ray shielding.

Civilian space companies should incorporate the safety features into their designs. For instance,

the VSH will equip an ejector seat for all tourists and staff. It is a device for bailing out of the spacecraft

with default of 40,000 feet (12 kilometres).

Goh's vision is essentially against the Federal Aviation Administration Office of Commercial

Space Transportation (AST) and does not have any schemes to regulate civilian space flight safety until

2012. The Commercial Space Launch Amendments Act of 2004 mentions that George Nield as AST

chief said, the civilian space flight regulation must not "stifle'' the developing technologies with

inconvenient rules.

Before launching, a hands-off approach to civilian space flight could be quite risky. Goh said,

"A lack of safety standards and a lot of operational burdens will leave a commercial space flight in the

dangerous activity categories in terms of insurance." It means insurance costs will be very high. Critics

who are developing safety standards also insist that the "at-your-own-risk" mentality that is applied to

risky sports like scuba-diving should also be applied to civilian space flight.
