Soal Toefl Reading Practice Section 3
The Reading Comprehension section contains reading passages and questions about the
passages. The questions are about information that is stated or implied in the passage and about
some of the specific words in the passages. Because many English words have more than one
meaning, it is important to remember that these questions concern the meaning of a word or
phrase within the context of the passage.
Answer all questions about the information in a passage on the basis of what is stated or implied
in that passage.
Example I
What is the main idea of the passage?
The main idea of the passage is that societies need to agree about how time is measured in order
to function smoothly. Therefore, you should choose answer C.
Example II
In line 6, the phrase "this tradition" refers to
The phrase "this tradition" refers to the preceding clause, "people have been in rough agreement
with their neighbors as to the time of day." Therefore, you should choose answer D.
PRACTICE PASSAGE
The Alaska pipeline starts at the frozen edge of the Arctic Ocean.
It stretches southward across the largest and northernmost state in
the United States, ending at a remote ice-free seaport village nearly
Line 800 miles from where it begins. It is massive in size and extremely
(5) complicated to operate.
The steel pipe crosses windswept plains and endless miles of
delicate tundra that tops the frozen ground. It weaves through
crooked canyons, climbs sheer mountains, plunges over rocky
crags, makes its way through thick forests, and passes over or
(10) under hundreds of rivers and streams. The pipe is 4 feet in diameter,
and up to 2 million barrels (or 84 million gallons) of crude oil can
be pumped through it daily.
Resting on H-shaped steel racks called "bents," long sections of
the pipeline follow a zigzag course high above the frozen earth.
(15) Other long sections drop out of sight beneath spongy or rocky
ground and return to the surface later on. The pattern of the
pipeline's up-and-down route is determined by the often harsh
demands of the arctic and subarctic climate, the tortuous lay of the
land, and the varied compositions of soil, rock, or permafrost
(20) (permanently frozen ground). A little more than half of the pipeline
is elevated above the ground. The remainder is buried anywhere
from 3 to 12 feet, depending largely upon the type of terrain and
the properties of the soil.
One of the largest in the world, the pipeline cost approximately
(25) $8 billion and is by far the biggest and most expensive construction
project ever undertaken by private industry. In fact, no single
business could raise that much money, so 8 major oil companies
formed a consortium in order to share the costs. Each company
controlled oil rights to particular shares of land in the oil fields and
(30) paid into the pipeline-construction fund according to the size of its
holdings. Today, despite enormous problems of climate, supply
shortages, equipment breakdowns, labor disagreements, treacherous
terrain, a certain amount of mismanagement, and even theft, the
Alaska pipeline has been completed and is operating.
1. pipeline
2. ocean
3. state
4. village
3. According to the passage, 84 million gallons of oil can travel through the pipeline each
1. day
2. week
3. month
4. year
4. The phrase "Resting on" in line 13 is closest in meaning to
1. Consisting of
2. Supported by
3. Passing under
4. Protected with
5. The author mentions all of the following as important in determining the pipeline's route
EXCEPT the
1. climate
2. lay of the land itself
3. local vegetation
4. kind of soil and rock
6. The word "undertaken" in line 26 is closest in meaning to
1. removed
2. selected
3. transported
4. attempted
7. How many companies shared the costs of constructing the pipeline?
1. 3
2. 4
3. 8
4. 12
8. The word "particular" in line 29 is closest in meaning to
1. peculiar
2. specific
3. exceptional
4. equal
9. Which of the following determined what percentage of the construction costs each
member of the consortium would pay?
1. Line 3
2. Line 13
3. Line 19
4. Line 32

READING COMPREHENSION
Passage One (Questions 1-2)
Blood pressure measurement has two components: systolic and diastolic. Systolic pressure is
taken when the heart is contracting to pump blood; diastolic pressure is taken when the heart is
resting between beats. In the usual blood pressure reading, the systolic measurement is given first
and is the higher of the two. Normal blood pressure is a systolic measurement of 120—140, and
when the systolic pressure is 160 or higher, then hypertension exists. Systolic pressure between
140 and 160 indicates borderline hypertension.
1. Which of the following is NOT true about systolic blood pressure?
(A) It is taken during the contraction of the heart.
(B) It is usually given first in a blood pressure reading.
(C) A normal systolic measurement is 120 – 140.
(D) Hypertension exists when the systolic pressure is below 140.
