The peregrine falcon, a predatory bird indigenous to North America , was once in danger of extinction. In the 1960s, scientists discovered byproducts of the pesticide DDT in the birds' eggs, which caused them to be too soft to survive. The use of the pesticide had been banned in the United States, but the falcons were eating migratory birds from other places where DDT was still used. In order to increase the survival rate, scientists were raising the birds in laboratories and then releasing them into mountainous areas. This practice achieved only moderate success, however, because many of the birds raised in captivity could not survive in the wild . There is now, however, a new alternative to releases in the wild. A falcon that has been given the name Scarlett chose to make her home on a ledge of the 33rd floor of a Baltimore, Maryland, office building rather than in the wild, and, to the surprise of the scientists, she has managed to live quite well in the city. Following this example, programs have been initiated that release birds like Scarlett into cities rather than into their natural wild habitat. These urban releases are becoming a common way to strengthen the species. Urban homes have several benefits for the birds that wild spots do not. First, there is an abundance of pigeons and small birds as food sources. The peregrine in the city is also protected from its main predator, the great horned owl. Urban release programs have been very successful in reestablishing the peregrine falcons along the East Coast. Although they are still an endangered species, their numbers increased from about 60 nesting pairs in 1975 to about 700 pairs in 1992. In another decade the species may flourish again, this time without human help. Question 8. Which of the following words is closest in meaning to the word "rate" as used in line 5? A. behavior B. speed C. continuation D. percentage Question 9. What is the main topic of the passage?

There is abundant food. B. There is a lack of predators. C. There are high places to nest. D. There are other falcons nearby. Question 12. As used in line 13, the word "spots" could best be replaced by.. A. materials B. places C. jungles D. dilemmas Question 13. According to the passage, where have the release programs been the most successful? A. in office buildings B. on the East Coast C. in mountainous areas D. in the wild Question 14. In line 3, the word "banned" could be best replaced by A. developed B. authorized C. prohibited D. disseminated Question 15.

The word "byproducts" in line 2 could best be replaced by which of the following? A. elements B. proceeds C. derivatives D. chemicals Question 17. Why were the peregrine falcons in danger? A. because they ate birds from other countries where DDT was still used B. because they migrated to countries where their eggs could not survive C. because of pesticides used by American farmers D. because they were prized by hunters and hunted to near extinction 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 . Herman Melville, an American author best known today for his novel Moby Dick, was actually more popular during his lifetime for some of his other works. He traveled extensively and used the knowledge gained during his travels as the basis for his early novels. In 1837, at the age of eighteen, Melville signed as a cabin boy on a merchant ship that was to sail from his Massachusetts home to Liverpool, England. His experiences on this trip served as a basis for the novel Redburn (1849). In 1841, Melville set out on a whaling ship headed for the South Seas. After jumping ship in Tahiti, he wandered around the islands of Tahiti and Moorea. This South Sea island sojourn was a backdrop to the novel Omoo (1847). After three years away from home, Melville joined up with a U.S. naval frigate that was returning to the eastern United States around Cape Horn. The novel White Jacket (1850) describes this lengthy voyage as a navy seaman. With the publication of these early adventure novels, Melville developed a strong and loyal following among readers eager for his tales of exotic places and situations. However, in 1851, with the publication of Moby Dick, Melville's popularity started to diminish. Moby Dick, on one level the saga of the hunt for the great white whale, was also a heavily symbolic allegory of the heroic struggle of humanity against the universe. The public was not ready for Melville's literary metamorphosis from romantic adventure to philosophical symbolism. It is ironic that the novel that served to diminish Melville's popularity during his lifetime is the one for which he is best known today. Question 18.
