        The human heart is divided into four chambers,each of which serves its own function in the cycle of pumping blood.The atria are the thin-walled upper chambers that gather blood as it flows from the viens between heartbeats.The ventricles are the thick-walled lower chambers that receive blood from the atria and push it the arteries with each contraction of the heart.The left atrium and ventricle work separately from those on the right.The role of the chambers on the right side of the heart is to receive oxigen-depleted blood from the body tissues and send it on to the lungs;the chambers on the left side of the heart then receive the oxygen-enriched blood from the lungs and send it back out to the body tissues.

4.The passage indicates that the ventricles

a.have relatively thin walls

b.send blood to the atria

c.are above the atria

d.force blood into the arteries

5.According to the passage,when is blood pushed into the arteries from the ventricles?

b.Between heartbeats

c.Before each contraction of the heart

d.Before it is received by the atria

6.According to the passage,which part of heart gets blood from the body tissues and passes it on to the lungs?

PASSAGE THREE

        The Golden Age of Railroads refers to the period from the end of the Civil War to the beginning of World War I when railroads flourished and,in fact,maintained a near monopoly in mass transportation in the United States.One of the significant developments during the period was the notable increase in uniformity,particularly through the standardization of track gauge and time.

        At the end of the Civil War,only about half of the nation's railroad track was laid at what is now the standard guage of 1,4 meters;much of the rest,particularly in the southern states,had a 1,5 meter gauge.During the postwar years,tracks was completed,resulting in increased efficiency and economy in the rail system.

        A further boon to railroad efficiency was the implementation of standard time in 18883.With the adoption of standard time,four time zones were established across the country,thus simplifying railroad scheduling and improving the efficiency of railroad service.

7.According to the passage,the Golden Age of Railroads

a.occured prior to the Civil War

b.was a result of World War I

c.was a period when most of U.S.mass transportation was controlled by the rairoads

d.resulted in a decrease in uniformity of track gauge

8.The passage mentions that which of the following occurred as a result of uniformity of track gauge?

a.The Civil War

b.Improved economy in the transportation system

c.Standardization of time zones

d.Railroad schedules

9.The passage indicates that standard time was implemented

a.before the civil War

b.on June 1,18886

c.after World War 1

d.before standardized track gauge was established throughout the United States

        Blood plasma is a clear,almost colorless liquid.It consists of blood from which the red and white blood cells have been removed.It is often used in transfusions because a patient generally needs the plasma portion of the blood more than the other components.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic ...

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for...

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived...
