The ability to deal with numbers and mathematical concepts reveals an interesting pattern of differences between girls and boys. Girls usually begin counting before boys. Throughout the primary-school years and middle school, girls are better at computational problems, whereas boys do better with noninterchangeable. During this period, girls also tend to get higher grades. By high school, however, boys begin to perform better, especially at the higher levels of ability. Some psychologists believe this advantage is genetic, but others think that it may derive, in part, from males’ use of more effective strategies and their lower level of anxiety when approaching mathematics problems. It has also been suggested that the sex differences come about to some degree because girls view math as a male activity (and, therefore, have less interest in it) and because some parents and teachers offer greater encouragement to males in this area. Some studies support this analysis, but others do not. In this area, too, biological and socialization factors probably combine to produce the observed differences.

Four years ago in 2003, when Paul Barrett first began planning an ambitious book on Muslims in America, who would have thought that the topic would still be of such urgent interest by the time it was published early this year? But, if anything, intervening events have made Barrett’s exploration of American Muslims more timely and important than ever. With the United States even more deeply embroiled in warfare in Iraqand Afghanistan, with sectarian conflict exploding within the Muslim world, with tensions high among Muslim populations in Europe, and with relations strained between some leaders of the Christian and Islamic religions, readers need as much information as they can get about Islam and its adherents. In his book, Barrett notes that, despite being targets of suspicion in the wake of the attacks of September 11, Muslims in America, as a group, offer a perfect illustration of old-fashioned American assimilation. Overall, they are prosperous, well-educated, politically active, and successful in business and the professions.

D)
began, according to Barrett, to be regarded as potentially dangerous

B) the facts that it relayed about Muslims in America had already been revealed to the reading public C) the war in Iraq was deliberately excluded from it because of the uncertainty about the outcome D) its predictions about the consequences of the American involvement in the Middle East were proven by the developments during this period E) it dwelt solely on a comparison of Christianity and Islam, leaving out a number of other important current issues
26.
According to the passage, there are several reasons ----.. A) why the relations between the Christian and Muslim leaders in Europe have been broken B)
that can be put forward for the American involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan
C)

Despite millennia of preoccupation with every facet of human emotion, we are still far from explaining in a rigorous physiological sense this part of our mental experience. Neuroscientists have, in modern times, been especially concerned with the neural basis of such cognitive processes as perception and memory. They have for the most part ignored the brain's role in emotion. Yet in recent years, interest in this mysterious mental terrain has surged. Catalyzed by breakthroughs in understanding the neural basis of cognition and by an increasingly sophisticated knowledge of the anatomical organization and physiology of the brain, investigators have begun to tackle the problem of emotion. One quite rewarding area of research has been the inquiry into the relation between memory and emotion. Much of this examination has involved studies of one particular emotion - fear -and the manner in which specific events or stimuli come, through individual learning experiences, to evoke this state. Scientists have been able to determine the way in which the brain shapes how we form memories about this basic, but significant, emotional event. We call this process 'emotional memory'.

Today the world faces a growing crisis over the management of its great rivers. In recent years, most of the great rivers in the world, such as the Yellow River in China, the Indus, the Colorado, and the Nile, have all periodically run empty because mankind has used their every last drop. Indeed, there is a huge unmet demand in the world for water. More than a billion people have no access to clean drinking water, and while it is hoped that this figure will be halved by 2015, nobody is sure where the water will come from.With today’s trends, one-third of the world population will be seriously short of water by 2025.

According to the passage, the water resources of the world ----.. A) are largely confined to the Indus and the Nile B)
have been increased through the solutions proposed by water engineers, and so the need for clean drinking water will be met well before 2015
C)
are so limited that it is doubtful whether the number of people with no access to clean drinking water can be halved, as hoped, by 2015
D) have become a major concern among politicians in many countries and, therefore, new policies have been proposed for an efficient management of the great rivers E) need to be upgraded by 2025 in order to catch up with the growth rate of the world population
25.
As can be understood from the passage, the fact that even some great rivers have from time to time run dry due to the overuse of their capacity ----.. A) demonstrates how the growth of the populations in some countries has had an adverse effect on the water resources B) shows how irresponsible the water engineers of most countries have been C) signifies that there must be a national water authority in each country for the preservation of the water resources D) makes it urgent for water engineers to discover new water resources in the southwestern US E) is a clear indication of how urgent the demand for water is in the world today
26.
One concludes from the passage that efficient management of the water resources of the world is essential ----.. A)
if the growing worldwide demand for water is to be met adequately

The huge ice sheet covering Greenland, which is the world’s largest island, provides a habitat for many arctic species and holds nearly 8 per cent of the world’s freshwater. It is, on average, 5, 000 feet thick and is constantly being replaced as snow falls each winter. Over the course of centuries, the snow compacts into ice, which slides towards the ocean. In recent years, higher atmospheric concentrations of heat-trapping gases have accelerated that process.As temperatures rise, the top layers melt, giving way to darker, heat-absorbing ice and liquid water. The melt water seeps down to the rock below, lubricating the ice mass and speeding its slide into the sea.

Dark matter is the invisible and mysterious material that makes up 22 per cent of the stuff in the universe. It is one of the greatest scientific unknowns. It does not emit light; nor does it reflect light or absorb it. While we are unable to see dark matter itself, we are able to create maps of it. We can clearly pinpoint its location by observing the effects of its mass on light from distant galaxies. This can be explained with reference to Einstein, who points out that a massive object will curve the fabric of space and that light will follow this deformed path. So we can look at how light from galaxies has been bent and, consequently, infer the quantity and location of the matter that did the bending. In fact, by using this method, a team of astronomers have recently managed to create the first three-dimensional map of the immense structure of dark matter.
26.

B) The amount of rain water in India is on the increase.
E) with its great mass was already known by Einstein and a team of astronomers
B) has been an easy task for astronomers, since they know its exact location C) was originally suggested by Einstein, but it isonly now that this has been achieved D) has revealed a much closer and more extensive interaction among galaxies E) was first attempted by Einstein, who had already studied the light emitted by galaxies 25.

A) have been measured through the use of a three dimensional map of space B) have ceased to be one of the greatest mysteries ever known in science C) distort the fabric of space and, therefore, can not be explored properly D) are so immense that it is out of question to study them in detail E) can only be understood through the curves made by the light from galaxies
---- Most of the water-intensive agriculture in the nation takes place in Punjab, a state in the northwest that makes up 2% of the country’s territory. But it provides more than 50% of its grain reserves. Farmers there currently pump out 45% more groundwater than is replaced by monsoon rains. The problem has arisen in part because Punjabi farmers have turned away from growing traditional crops that are suited for semi-arid land, such as wheat and corn, and turned instead to more profitable, but waterintensive, rice.. A) Punjab has the best agricultural land in India.
D) has a bending effect on the light that comes from distant galaxies

Using coal to make electricity accounts for about a third of America’s carbon emissions. As a result, tackling emissions from coal-fired power plants represents our best opportunity to make sharp reductions in greenhouse gases. Fortunately, the United States already has the technology to do that. Unfortunately, right now the country is addicted to coal, a cheap, abundant power source. Burning coal produces more than half the country’s electricity, despite its immense human and environmental costs. Air pollutants from coal-fired power plants cause somewhere between 20, 000 and 30, 000 premature deaths in the United States each year. Besides, fifty tons of mercury are pumped into the atmosphere annually from coal plants. In addition, the extraction of coal, from West Virginia to Wyoming, devastates the physical environment, and its processing and burning produce gigantic volumes of waste.

According to the most accurate scientific theory ever created and generally known as the standard model, all of space is filled with a mysterious stuff called 'the Higgs field'. Unlike magnetic or gravitational fields, which vary from place to place (as, for instance, the fact that things weigh more on Earth than on the surface of the Moon), the Higgs field is exactly the same everywhere. What varies is how the different fundamental particles interact with it. That interaction, the theory goes, is what gives particles mass. In other words, the Higgs field is what makes some particles, such as protons and neutrons, relatively heavy, others (like electrons) subatomic light weights, and still others (like photons) utterly massless. If photons weren’t so light, a person would be shredded by a photon hail storm every time he or she was exposed to a sunbeam. Then again, if protons and neutrons weren’t so heavy, one wouldn’t dare to go outside to sunbathe anyway. So without mass and its affinity for gravity, there would be no galaxies, no stars, and no us.
23.
One learns from the passage that, in magnetic or gravitational fields, ----.. A) photons have an equal mass to that of protons and neutrons B) things do not interact at all and are therefore massless C) the weight of things is never the same, but changes according to location D) there are still many mysteries that need to be explained accurately E) it is not clear how different fundamental particles interact with each other
24.
It is emphasized in the passage that mass ----.. A) is the weight of a thing and is wholly dependent on gravity B) is fundamentally different from weight and the two terms should not be confused C) can only be observed in magnetic and gravitational fields D) shows no difference on Earth and on the surface of the Moon E) is essentially a function of how particles interact with the Higgs field
25.
As is pointed out in the passage, the Higgs field ---.. A) covers space completely and is of a homogeneous nature B) has the same characteristics as a magnetic or gravitational field C) has been known for centuries and led to the theory of gravity D) has had no impact on the formation of galaxies and stars E) is only related to the interactions of photons, protons, and neutrons
26.
In the passage, attention is drawn to the fact that the theory of the Higgs field ----.. A) has been used as the standard model for an explanation of magnetic fields B) is absolutely reliable and sheds light on how the universe was formed C) helps us understand how to avoid the dangerous effects of solar rays D) constitutes the basis of nuclear physics, since itis concerned with nuclear elements E) is indispensable for an understanding of the Moon’s gravity and its effects

What would conversation be like without hand gestures? Difficult, and in countries like Italy, perhaps unimaginable. It was her travels to Italy, in fact, that inspired Jana Iverson, a psychologist at the University of Chicago, to see whether we learn gesturing from others or if it is an innate part of speaking. She asked 24 children, 12 of whom had been blind from birth, to compare the amounts of water in two identical glasses, then compare them again after the water in one glass was poured into a dish. (The blind children explored the water and receptacles with their hands.) Asked how they arrived at an answer, both blind and sighted children used the same gestures as they spoke, including cupping one hand into a C shape and imitating the act of pouring. Blind children gestured even when talking to an experimenter they knew was blind. The fact that someone who had never seen gestures before would gesture', says Iverson, 'even to a partner who they know can't see, suggests that gesturing and speaking are tightly connected in some very fundamental way in our brains'.
23.
The passage puts forward the idea that ----.. A) gestures can help us to have an insight into a person\'s character B) the Italians, more than any other people in the world, rely on gestures to communicate C) blind children learn through touching rather than from hearing D) Iverson\'s experiments with blind children have been a breakthrough in psychology E) the relationship between gesturing and speaking has its basis in the brain
24.
According to the passage, the psychologist Iverson ----.. A) worked with blind and sighted children to show that gesturing is a natural accompaniment to speaking B) was already involved in the study of blind people before her visit to Italy C) carried out a series of speech skills experiments at the University of Chicago D) specialized in the cognitive processes of the brain E) focused on the behavioural patterns of children rather than of adults
25.
According to the passage, one interesting fact that emerged in the course of Iverson's experiments with blind and sighted children was that, in a given situation, ----.. A) the children responded in a wide variety of ways B) the two groups used identical gestures to support what they were saying C) unlike the blind children, the sighted children showed no uniformity of response D) neither group made the gestures that had been expected E) the sighted children seemed to imitate the gestures of the blind children
26.
As we understand from the passage, Iverson's observations in Italy ----.. A) confirmed her view that gesturing was related to national character B) convinced her that gesturing was independent of speaking C) encouraged her to continue her experiments with blind children D) led her to investigate whether gesturing is imitative or inborn E) suggested to her that gesturing could reduce the effectiveness of speaking

The contemporary climate of the Konya Plain is of a dry Mediterranean character, with a dry summer and a moister winter and spring. Annual rainfall is low, an annual average of 250mm, though it increases towards the edge of the plain, reaching 315mm.Unirrigated crops suffer from regular failure in the area. Palaeoclimatic research suggests that the climate was moister through Çatalhöyük’s Neolithic occupation than it is today. Greater precipitation might have increased flood frequency, the extent off lood and soil water logging, as precipitation in the river catchment was the main determinant of alluvial systems dynamics. It might also have increased the reliability of rain-fed agriculture in the drier subenvironments of the plain while making agriculture in the alluvial zone more risky. The sudden end of alluviation, before the onset of Chalcolithic occupation, indicated a period of dryness, which not only affected the alluvial system, but also reduced the reliability of rain-fed agriculture in the drier zones.
23.
We can understand from the passage that during the Neolithic Period ----.. A) wetland birds migrated to other parts of the Konya Plain B) the plain had a drier spring and summer than it does today C) regional rainfall was probably determined by alluvial systems dynamics D) rain-fed agricultural crops happened to become extinct E) the people of Çatalhöyük stored a range of crops that were all adapted to the Mediterranean climate
24.
The writer of the passage claims that during Çatalhöyük’s Neolithic Period ----.. A) the soils never had a surplus of water B) the alluvial zone barely supported farming C) there was no rain-fed agriculture D) people relied completely on irrigation for growing crops E) more floods occurred in the region
25.
One point made in the passage is that before the Chalcolithic Period started, ----.. A) the irrigation-based methods of agriculture were more common in the plain B) excessive rainfall brought about flood frequency, flood extent and soil water logging in fertile soils C) the inhabitants of the plain relied more heavily on irrigation in order to sustain land management D) there was a cease in the alluvial system and this affected rain-fed agriculture in the drier areas of the Konya Plain E) the Konya Plain had a climate of dry Mediterranean character much as it does today
26.
It is explicitly stated in the passage that ----.. A) some parts of the Konya Plain receive more rain annually than the others B) the climate of the Konya Plain was drier during the Neolithic Period than it is today C) population dynamics and social relations are partly reflected in the history of the region D) it is now almost impractical to grow crops in the Konya Plain E) more irrigation is required to efficiently cultivate the soils of the region
