II. Read the following passage and choose the best answer.
Bacteria are extremely small living things. While we measure our own sizes in inches or
centimeters, bacterial size is measured in microns. One micron is a thousandth of a millimeter a
pinhead is about a millimeter across. Rod shaped bacteria are usually from two to tour microns
long, while rounded ones are generally one micron in diameter Thus if you enlarged a founded
bacterium a thousand times, it would be just about the size of a pinhead. An adult human
magnified by the same amount would be over a mile(1.6 kilometers) tall.
Even with an ordinary microscope, you must look closely to see bacteria. Using a magnification
of 100 times, one finds that bacteria are barely visible as tiny rods or dots One cannot make out
anything of their structure. Using special stains, one can see that some bacteria have attached to
them wavy - looking "hairs" called flagella. Others have only one flagellum. The flagella rotate,
pushing the bacteria though the water. Many bacteria lack flagella and cannot move about by
their own power while others can glide along over surfaces by some little understood
mechanism.
From the bacterial point of view, the world is a very different place from what it is to humans To
a bacterium water is as thick as molasses is to us. Bacteria are so small that they are influenced
by the movements of the chemical molecules around them. Bacteria under the microscope, even
those with no flagella, often bounce about in the water. This is because they collide with the
water molecules and are pushed this way and that. Molecules move so rapidly that within a tenth
of a second the molecules around a bacterium have all been replaced by new ones even bacteria
without flagella are thus constantly exposed to a changing environment.

(A) A rider jumping on a horse's back (B) A ball being hit by a bat

II. Read the following passage and choose the best answer.
One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent almost half
of her long life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States. In
her lifetime she earned this country's most highly acclaimed literary award: the Pulitzer Prize,
and also the most prestigious form of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel Prize for
Literature. Pearl S. Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because
of her prolific literary output, which consisted of some eighty - five published works, including
several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and more than
a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty - five volumes were
awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so
much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and
the West. As the product of those two cultures she became as the described herself, "mentally
bifocal." Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and versatile human
being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact
meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer and a
humanitarian and philanthropist. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning
about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of
the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer prizes. Pearl
Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author. is a captivating subject of study.
