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.
I read with interest the article on American families. In general, I agree with
it, but there are some important things it left out. It didn’t tell the reader
much about the life of a houseband. It’s not an easy life. I know, because I’m
now a househusband myself. A househusband has to change many of his ideas and
his ways. First of all, he has to change the way he thinks about time. Before I
was a househusband, I worked full-time for the New York Times. I was a
reporter, and time was always important. We had to finish our articles quickly
and give them to the editor. Everyone was always in a hurry. This is the way,
many other men work too. Businessmen, lawyers, bankers, and doctors all have to
work quickly. At home it's different. The househusband cannot be in a hurry all
the time. If you rush around, you will make everyone unhappy! The children will
be unhappy because they don't understand. For them, time is not important. Your
wife will be unhappy because the children are unhappy. You will be unhappy,
too, because they are all unhappy. So you have to learn to slow down. That is
the first
and most important rule for a househusband. There is something else the
househusband must learn. You must learn to show how you feel about things. At
work, men usually do not talk about feelings. If they do, people think they are
strange. So, many men are not used to telling anyone about their feelings. They
do not know how to talk about their anger, worries, or love. But children need
to know how you feel. They need to know how much you love them. If you are
angry, they need to know why. Your wife also needs to know about your feelings.
If you do not say anything, your family may get the wrong idea. Then there
may be serious problems. People talk a lot about househusbands these days.
Usually they talk about men doing the housework, the cooking, cleaning, and
shopping. But in my opinion, these are the easiest things to learn. It was much
harder for me to change the way I think and the way I act with my family. I
think, other men will also find this harder, but, like me, will find it necessary
if they want to have a happy family! Ted Diamond Hartwell, New Jersey

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.
According to some accounts, the first optical telescope was accidentally
invented in the 1600s by children who put two glass lenses together while
playing with them in a Dutch optical shop. The owner of the shop, Hans
Lippershey, looked through the lenses and was amazed by the way they made the
nearby church look so much larger. Soon after that, he invented a device that
he called a
"looker," a long thin tube where light passed in a straight line from
the front lens to the viewing lens at the other end of the tube. In 1608 he
tried to sell his invention unsuccessfully. In the same year, someone described
the "looker’’ to the Italian scientist Galileo, who made his own version
of the device. In 1610 Galileo used his version to make observations of the
Moon, the planet Jupiter, and the Milky Way. In April of 1611, Galileo showed
his device to guests at a banquet in his honor. One of the guests suggested a name
for the device: telescope. When Isaac Newton began using Galileo's telescope
more than a century later, he noticed a problem. The type of telescope that
Galileo designed is called a refractor because the front lens bends, or
refracts the light. However, the curved front lens also caused the light to be
separated into colors. This meant that when Newton looked through the
refracting telescope, the images of bright
objects appeared with a ring of colors around them. This sometimes interfered
with viewing. He solved this problem by designing a new type of telescope that
used a curved mirror. This mirror concentrated the light and reflected a beam
of light to the eyepiece at the other end of the telescope. Because Newton used
a mirror, his telescope was called a reflector. Very much larger optical
telescopes can now be found in many parts of the world, built on hills and
mountains far from city lights. The world's largest refracting telescope is
located at the Yerkes
Observatory in Williams Bay, Wisconsin, Another telescope stands on Mount
Palomar in California. This huge reflecting telescope was for many years the largest
reflecting telescope in the world until an even larger reflecting telescope was
built in the Caucasus Mountains. A fourth famous reflector telescope, the Keck
Telescope situated on a mountain in Hawaii, does not use a single large mirror
to collect the light. Instead, the Keck uses the combined light that falls on
thirtysix mirrors. Radio telescopes, like optical telescopes, allow astronomers
to collect data from outer space, but they are different in important ways.
First of all, they look very different because instead of light waves, they
collect radio waves. Thus, in the place of lenses or mirrors, radio telescopes
employ
bowl-shaped disks that resemble huge TV satellite dishes. Also, apart from
their distinctive appearance, radio telescopes and optical telescopes use
different methods to record the information they collect. Optical telescopes
use cameras to take photographs of visible objects, while radio telescopes use
radio receivers to record radio waves from distant objects in space.
