Question

I

Read the

following

text

and complete

the

given task.

(Adapted

from Young

Oxford

Encyclopedia)

Titan,

Saturn s

largest

and most exotic

moon,

has

planetary

scientists so

excited as it

possesses

certain

Earthlike

features.

Over the

past

few

years,

a

pair

of

probes

-

Cassini,

which has

orbited

Saturn since

2004,

and Huygens, which

plummeted

onto Titan s

surface in 2005

-

have discovered features

that

are

reminiscent

of Earth.

Like

Earth, Titan

has mountains,

volcanoes,

dunes, riverbeds and

rainstorms.

To

cap it

all, scientists announced that

Cassini s

powerful

imaging

radar had

uncovered a

system

of

more

than

75 lakes dotting the

north

polar

region.

However, Titan has

a surface temperature

that

hovers

around

minus 290

degrees

Fahrenheit.

Hence,

allthose

familiar-looking features

are constructed

from decidedly

unfamiliar materials. The mountains

are

made

primarily

of rock-hard water

ice;

the dunes

are

ice

granules

coated with hydrocarbons:

volcanoes

probably

belch

methane

and ammonia,

and the lakes are

filled

with methane.

Scientists

require

more time to study

Titan

before they can make sense

of

the satellite that

is

so tantalisingly Earthlike.

Question

2

Read

the

following

text and complete

the

given

task.

Probably the most numerous organisms, and the first life-forms to evolve

on

earth,

are

the organisms

of

the moneran

kingdom. All monerans

are

bacteria.

There are three main

types: cyanobacteria,

true bacteria and archaeobacteria.

Monerans are

also called

prokaryotes

because of their simple

cell

structure.

Monerans

are

among

the most

important

organisms

on earth. Many

monerans

help break

down dead organisms and waste matter. In this

way,

they

recycle

chemicals

and

make

them

available

to the other

organisms.

For

example, true bacteria living in the soil rapidly

turn

dead

organisms

into valuable nutrients,

such

as

nitrogen,

in

the soil.

Bacteria themselves are

a

valuable

food

source for many

other

organisms. Monerans

also

add

and

remove important

gases

to and

from

the

air.

Monerans are

so numerous because different forms

can

withstand

a

wide

range

of

environmental

conditions.

On

the bottom

of the

deepest oceans,

monerans

withstand

intense

pressures.

Others

can survive the

near-boiling

temperatures of

sulfur-filled

pools

on land.

With

their

small size and

simple

cell

structures, monerans

can multiply very

rapidly.

Some true

bacteria can divide

once every 20 minutes.
