58. – 60. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre cevaplayınız.New Yorkers are often regarded as being unkind. Actually, this is not a fair attitude. They are willing to help people who need help, but experience has taught them a lot of people don’t want to be helped. Are New Yorkers less kind people – less caring on the inside – than city dwellers in other places? Not at all. When you talk to them about this, many give good reasons for their reluctance to help strangers. Most have been taught early on that reaching out to people you don’t know can be dangerous. To survive in New York, they were taught that they should avoid even the potentially suspicious. Some also express concern that others might not want help, that the stranger, too, might be afraid of outside contact or might feel insulted. Many tell stories of being abused for trying to help. As one woman explains, she saw an elderly man with a walking stick who appeared unable to cross a busy street. When she gently offered to help, he replied angrily, “When l want help, I’ll ask for it. Mind your own business.” Over and over, New Yorkers say that they care deeply about the needs of strangers, but that the realities of city living prevent them from reaching out. People speak with nostalgia of the past, when they would pick up hitchhikers or arrange a meal for a hungry stranger.58. The aim of the passage is to —-.
? show that the old man was not angry but afraid
? explain why people in New York are so kind
? help us to understand why the old man in the story was so angry
? to encourage people to be more helpful
? show that the people of New York are not basically unkind

61. – 63. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre cevaplayınız.When sunlight heats the earth, it also heats the atmosphere. As hot air rises, cooler and heavier air rushes in to fill its place, thus creating wind. For more than 2,000 years, people have captured this energy with windmills and used it to do useful things, such as grinding grain or pumping water. By the late 19th century, windmills were also being used to produce electricity, mostly in rural areas. Compared with traditional windmills, however, modern wind turbines are far more efficient.61. The major focus of the passage is on —-.

? wind is created when cool air rises and hot air sinks
? grain grinding and water pumping are two of the functions of windmills
When sunlight heats the earth, it also heats the atmosphere. As hot air rises, cooler and heavier air rushes in to fill its place, thus creating wind. For more than 2,000 years, people have captured this energy with windmills and used it to do useful things, such as grinding grain or pumping water. By the late 19th century, windmills were also being used to produce electricity, mostly in rural areas. Compared with traditional windmills, however, modern wind turbines are far more efficient.63. From this passage, we can see that —-.
? it is difficult to make use of wind energy
? in earlier times people needed electricity more in rural areas, not in urban areas
? wind turbines supply electric power more efficiently than do windmills
? earlier people failed to capture the wind’s energy
? there is almost no difference between windmills and wind turbines

67. – 69. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre cevaplayınız.Various estimates suggest that by 2050 nearly one third of the world’s energy needs could come from renewable sources such as solar power, wind power, geothermal power and hydrogen fuel cells. This leaves the other two thirds to come from conventional fossil fuels such as oil and gas. We have to find a balance between the need to protect people’s way of life and the environment, and the need to provide them with affordable energy; and also between the cost of developing new technology to get the most from fossil fuels, and the cost of developing new power sources.67. This passage is largely about —-
? the usefulness of renewable energy sources to people’s way of life and the environment
? the advantages of using renewable energy sources such as wind power
? the harmfulness of fossil fuels to people’s way of life and the environment
? new power sources which have to be developed to replace conventional fuels

Various estimates suggest that by 2050 nearly one third of the world’s energy needs could come from renewable sources such as solar power, wind power, geothermal power and hydrogen fuel cells. This leaves the other two thirds to come from conventional fossil fuels such as oil and gas. We have to find a balance between the need to protect people’s way of life and the environment, and the need to provide them with affordable energy; and also between the cost of developing new technology to get the most from fossil fuels, and the cost of developing new power sources.68. The passage suggests that —-.
? traditional fuels are renewable, so we should go on using them
? by 2050 it could be possible for renewable energy sources to supply 33% of the world’s power needs
? one should protect the environment even if this causes fuel prices to rise

? the use of oil and gas helps us to protect the environment
? fossil fuels will exist as long as the world exists, but they are harmful
? the type of energy needed and the cost of producing it are related problems
? no estimates have been made about the future use of energy sources

70. – 72. soruları aşağıdaki parçaya göre cevaplayınız.In the years following the Chernobyl reactor disaster in 1986, nuclear power was seen as a dying industry. Public support had lessened because of safety fears, and many countries decided to put a halt to new reactor construction. But there has recently been a dramatic revival of interest in nuclear energy, thanks to the twin threats of climate change and energy insecurity. Nuclear reactors do not emit CO2 when they generate electricity, so governments are increasingly seeing the construction of such reactors as a way to bring down carbon emissions and generate stable supplies of electricity.70. Based on the passage, we may conclude that —
? people were worried about safety conditions after the Chernobyl disaster
? in reaction to the Chernobyl event, many countries decided to have new reactors constructed
? as nuclear reactors emit CO2 when they generate electricity, governments are considering bringing down their numbers
? stable supplies of electricity can be generated without the aid of nuclear reactors
? threats of climate change and energy insecurity have recently caused a lack of interest in clean energy

? the public’s fears about safety
? the twin threats of climate change and energy insecurity
? nuclear power as a dying industry
? the dangers of CO2 created by nuclear reactors
? the renewed interest in nuclear reactors and the reasons for it
