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 36 to 42. 
 Ever since humans inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this 
expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, 
communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. 
Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole 
words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot. 
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be 
a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head 
indicates a negative reaction. 
 Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), 
signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. 
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other Systems and techniques also express human 
thoughts and feelings.

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 43 to 50. 
Rachel Carson was born in 1907 in Springdale, Pennsylvania. She studied biology at college and zoology at Johns 
Hopkins University, where she received her master’s degree in 1933. In 1936, she was hired by the U.S. Fish and 
Wildlife Service, where she worked most of her life. 
Carson’s first book, Under the Sea Wind, was published in 1941. It received excellent reviews, but sales were 
poor until it was reissued in 1952. In that year she published The Sea Around Us, which provided a fascinating 
look beneath the ocean’s surface, emphasizing human history as well as geology and marine biology. Her imagery 
and language had a poetic quality. Carson consulted no less than 1,000 printed sources. She had voluminous 
correspondence and frequent discussions with experts in the field. However, she always realized the limitations of 
her nontechnical readers. 
In 1962, Carson published Silent Spring, a book that sparked considerable controversy. It proved how much harm 
was done by the uncontrolled, reckless use of insecticides. She detailed how they poison the food supply of 
animals, kill birds and fish, and contaminate human food. At the time, spokesmen for the chemical industry 
mounted personal attacks against Carson and issued propaganda to indicate that her findings were flawed. 
However, her work was proved by a 1963 report of the President’s Science Advisory Committee.
