Fish that live on the sea bottom benefit by being flat and hugging the contours. There are two very
different types of flatfish and they have evolved in very separate ways. The skates and rays, relatives of
the sharks have become flat in what might be called the obvious way. Their bodies have grown out
sideways to form great “wings”. They look as though they have been flattened but have remained
symmetrical and “the right way up”. Conversely fish such as plaice, sole, and halibut have become flat
in a different way. There are bony fish which have a marked tendency to be flattened in a vertical
direction; they are much “taller” than they are wide. They use their whole vertically flattened bodies as
swimming surfaces, which undulate through the water as they move. Therefore when their ancestors
migrated to the seabed, they lay on one side than on their bellies. However, this raises the problem that
one eye was always looking down into the sand and was effectively useless - In evolution this problem
was solved by the lower eye “moving” around the other side. We see this process of moving around
enacted in the development of every young bony flatfish. It starts life swimming near the surface, and
is symmetrical and vertically flattened, but then the skull starts to grow in a strange asymmetrical
twisted fashion, so that one eye for instance the left, moves over the top of the head upwards, an old
Picasso - like vision. Incidentally, some species of 20 flatfish settle on the right side, others on the left,
and others on either side.
Question 29. The passage is mainly concerned with _______.
A. symmetrical flatfish B. bony flatfish
C. evolution of flatfish D. different types of flatfish
Question 30. It can be inferred from the passage that horizontal symmetrical fish _______.
A. have one eye each side of the head B. have one eye underneath the head
C. have two eyes on top of the head D. have eyes that move around the head
Question 31. The word “conversely” is closest in meaning to _______.
Similarly B. Alternatively C. Inversely D. Contrarily
Question 32. The word “this” refers to _______.
A. the migration of the ancestors
B. the practice of lying on one side
C. the problem of the one eye looking downwards
D. the difficulty of the only one eye being useful
Question 33. According to the passage, the ability of a bony flatfish to move its eyes around is
_______.
A. average B. excellent C. weak D. variable

correct option that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 34 to 40.
Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial
problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since
man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely
comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop.
Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its
desiccating effects. No moist- skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are
found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert
country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its
population is largely
nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted
to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the word. The secret of
their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad
dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So
most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging
to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches
down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

Question 34: The author mentions all the following as examples of the behavior of desert animals
EXCEPT
A. they are watchful and quiet B. they sleep during the day
C. they dig home underground D. they are noisy and aggressive
Question 35: We can infer from the passage that
A. healthy animals live longer lives B. living things adjust to their environment
C. desert life is colorful and diverse D. water is the basis of desert life
Question 36: According to the passage, creatures in the desert
A. are smaller and fleeter than forest animals
B. are more active during the day than those in the tangled forest
C. live in an accommodating environment
D. are not as healthy as those anywhere else in the world
Question 37: The phrase “those forms” in the passage refers to all of the following EXCEPT
A. moist-skinned animals B. many large animals
C. water-loving animals D. the coyote and the bobcat
Question 38: The word “them” means
A.animals B. minutes C. people D. water
Question 39: Man can hardly understand why many animals live their whole life in the desert, as
A. water is an essential part of his existence
B. very few large animals are found in the desert
C. sources of flowing water are rare in a desert
D. water composes the greater part of the tissues of living things
Question 40: The title for this passage could be
A. “Man’s Life in a Desert Environment” B. “Desert Plants”
C. “Animal Life in a Desert Environment” D. “Life Underground”
