    I. Reading ComprehensionRead the texts below, and, for items 1-15, choose the correct answer from among the

    four given variants. Mark your answer on the answer sheet.

    The general principles of dynamics are rules that demonstrate a relationshipbetween the motion of bodies and the forces that produce those motions. Based in largepart on the work of his predecessors, Sir Isaac Newton deduced three laws of dynamics,which he published in 1687 in his famous Principia.

    Prior to Newton, Aristotle had established that the natural state of a body was a state

    of rest, and that unless a force acted upon it to maintain motion, a moving body wouldcome to rest. Galileo had succeeded in correctly describing the behavior of fallingobjects and in recording that no force was required to maintain a body in motion. Henoted that the effect of force was to change motion. Huygens recognized that a changein speed is related to the action of a force. Kepler deduced the laws describing themotion of planets around the sun. It was primarily from Galileo and Kepler thatNewton borrowed.

    1 What was the main purpose of this passage?

    a. To demonstrate the development of Newtons laws.b. To establish Newton as the authority in the field of physics.c. To discredit Newtons laws of motion.d. To describe the motion of planets around the sun.

    2 The general principles of dynamics are:a. rules demonstrating the relationship between the motions of bodies and the forces

    producing them.b. relationships between bodies and forces.c. motions of bodies and of forces.d. the forces that produce the motions.

    A geyser is the result of underground water under the combined conditions of hightemperature and increased pressure beneath the surface of the earth. Since temperaturerises approximately 1 F for every sixty feet under the earths surface, and pressureincreases with depth, water that seeps down in cracks and fissures until it reaches very hotrocks in the earths interior becomes heated to a temperature in excess of 290 F. Becauseof the greater pressure, it shoots out of the surface in the form of steam and hot water. Theresult is a geyser.

    In order to function, then, a geyser must have a source of heat, a reservoir wherewater can be stored until the temperature rises to an unstable point, an opening throughwhich the hot water and steam can escape, and underground channels for resupplyingwater after an eruption.

    Favorable conditions for geysers exist in regions of geologically recent volcanic

    activity, especially in areas of more than average precipitation.For the most part, geysers are located in three regions of the world: New Zealand,

    Iceland, and the Yellowstone National Park area of the United States. The most famous
