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.
A ghostly animal creeps silently through a Florida swamp. It’s a rare type of big cat known as a 
Florida panther, one of only 80 to 100 such panthers left in the world. Scientists must work to 
save these remaining panthers from extinction, but their secretive nature is making it difficult. 
They are attaching a special transmitter to each Florida panther so they can follow their 
movements, range, and habits. The technology these transmitters use is called satellite tracking.
The scientists are dedicated professionals, but they are not pioneers. Their colleagues before 
them have attached tiny transmitters to many different kinds of wild animals, including birds, 
fish, and big cats. So the Florida scientists are using their methods. Firstly, they must trap and 
tranquillize the panther. Then, the transmitter is attached to a harness and strapped to the 
panther’s body. Each harness is custom designed and manually adjusted for panthers so it fits 
comfortably. Scientists don’t want the transmitter to interfere with the panther’s natural habits. 
The point of tracking them is to find out as much as they can about their natural habits. 
Once the tracking transmitter is in place, the information it records is sent to an orbiting 
satellite.The satellite can see the transmitter that is attached to the panther, even when it is out 
of sight of a biologist on the ground. The satellite collects information from the transmitter 
about the panther’s exact location. Once the information is received, it is transmitted back to 
Earth so it can be recorded by the scientists.

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. 
On average, American kids ages 3 to 12 spent 29 hours a week in school, eight hours more than 
they did in 1981. They also did more household work and participated in more of such 
organized activities as soccer and ballet. Involvement in sports, in particular, rose almost 50% 
from 1981 to 1997: boys now spend an average of four hours a week playing sports; girl log 
half that time. All in all, however, children’s leisure time dropped from 40% of the day in 1981 
to 25%.
“ Children are affected by the same time crunch that affects their parents,” says Sandra 
Hofferth, who headed the recent study of children’s timetable. A chief season, she says, is that 
more mothers are working outside the home. ( Nevertheless, children in both double- income 
and “male breadwinner” households spent comparable amounts of time interacting with their 
parents, 19 hours and 22 hours respectively. In contrast, children spent only 9 hours with single 
mother.)
All work and no play could make for some very messed-up kids. “Play is the most powerful 
way a child explores the world and learns about himself”, says T. Berry Brazelton, professor at 
Harvard Medical School. Unstructured play encourages independent thinking and allows the 
young to negotiate their relationships with their peers, but kids ages 3 to 12 spend only hours a 
week engaging in it.
The chidren sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing “free time” watching television. 
But that, believe it or not, was one of the findings parents might regard as good news. If they 
are spendingless time in front of the TV set, however, kids aren’t replacing it with reading. 
Despite efforts to get kids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week 
reading. Let’s face it, who’s got the time?
