When Queen Victoria died in 1901, the world was
entering a new and exciting period of change. For
instance, in that year, for the first time, wireless
signals had crossed the Atlantic and, in the
following year, an airship flew from Europe to
America. Already the motor car had come into use and
was making life much easier. Telephones, also, were
becoming fairly common. Politically and
economically, people looked forward to a time of
peace, wealth and progress. In fact, nothing seemed
to stand in the way of such a future.

There can be few more depressing stories in the
entire history of man's exploitation of nature than
the wide-spread destruction of whales. Whales have
not only suffered untold cruelty but now face total
extermination. Already entire populations have been
wiped out, and the only reason why no species has
yet been finished off is due to the vastness and
inaccessibility of the oceans. Hence, a few have
always managed to escape, but how much longer can
this go on?
Q. The author points out that of all the animals in
nature it is probably the whales that
................
a. have aroused most sympathy among ordinary people
b. have attracted the least scientific attention

It is to be expected that, by the year 2050,
people's eating habits will have changed beyond
recognition. With a world-wide growth in population
very many new mechanical and scientific methods will
come into being to step up food production. There
may well be an end to food as we know it today. In
fact, meals as we know them, may become a thing of
the past. Food constituents and vitamins may be
taken in the form of capsules, tablets and pills.
The thought of these highly artificial food
constituents replacing present day foods may not be
very relishing, but they may be the answer to food
shortage and world famine.
Q. It is suggested in the passage that, at a not too
distant date, .... .
a. the world will face severe famine

of artificial food will be inevitable
c. famine and food shortage in the world can only be
overcome by reducing the population growth rate
d. artificial goods need not conflict with
traditional eating habits
e. mechanical and scientific methods are
indispensable for the production of vitamins

There is nothing that man fears more than the touch
of the unknown. He wants to know what is reaching
towards him, and to be able to recognize or at least
classify it. Man always tends to avoid physical
contact with anything strange. In the dark, the fear
of an unexpected touch can lead to panic. Even
clothes give insufficient security: it is easy to
tear them and pierce through to the naked, smooth,
defenseless flesh of the victim. All the distances
which men create round themselves are dictated by
this fear. They shut themselves in houses which no
one may enter, and only there they feel some measure
of security. The fear of burglars is not only the
fear of being robbed, but also the fear of something
touching you in the darkness.
Q. According to the passage, what frightens people
most is ................

cope with it
