Soru 5 : The Mississippi is one of the world’s great continental rivers, like the Amazon in South America, the Congo
in Africa, or the Volga in Europe. Its waters are gathered from two-thirds of the US and, together with
the Missouri, which is its chief western branch, the Mississippi flows some 6.400 kilometres from its
northern sources in the Rocky Mountains to the Gulf of Mexico, which makes it one of the world’s longest
waterways. The Mississippi has been called the “father of waters”. Through all its lower course, it
wanders along, appearing lazy and harmless. But people who know the river are not deceived by its
benign appearance, for they have had many bitter struggles with its floods. They have had to learn that
nothing is to be gained by fighting against the rages of the mighty stream. To control it, Americans have
had to accept some of the river’s own terms and to undertake the patient work of conserving and
rebuilding soil, grasslands and forests, far back where the waters begin to gather.
It is clear from the passage that the sources of
the Mississippi’s waters ----.
A) are so limited that the river seldom causes
flooding along its banks
B) are not as many as those of other continental
rivers in the world
C) need to be conserved to protect the river from
environmental pollution
D) are spread over a great part of the US
E) cannot be ascertained, since the Rocky
Mountains have not been explored fully

Soru 44 : For two decades after World War II, mass production reigned supreme. Mass production techniques pushed companies into standardized products, long product life cycles, and rigid manufacturing, emphasizing efficiency and low cost over flexibility. Special orders cost more. But today's consumers are very choosy. They want quality, value and products specially tailored to their needs, but always at the lowest possible price. For now mass customization has come to the fore. Mass customization uses information technology to produce and deliver products and services designed to fit the specifications of individual customers. Companies can customize products in quantities as small as one with the same speed and low cost as mass production methods. Mass customization systems use information taken from the customer to control the flow of goods.
We learn from the passage that mass production -----.
A) has now regained its previous popularity
B) was the leading method of production in the twenty years or so that followed World War II

Soru 45 : For over thirty years, the Bermuda Triangle has been popularly known for disappearances of boats and aircraft. This imaginary triangle has its three points at Miami, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda. The 1945 disappearance of five military airplanes and a rescue plane was the primary focus of the Bermuda Triangle legend. In December of that year, Flight 19 set out on a training mission from Florida with a leader who wasn't feeling well, an underexperienced crew, a lack of navigation equipment, a limited supply of fuel, and rough seas below. Inexperienced pleasure boaters and aviators are common in the area of the triangle. They travel too far from the coast and often have an insufficient supply of fuel or knowledge of the swiftly moving Gulf Stream current. Overall, the mystery surrounding the Bermuda Triangle is not much of a mystery at all but has simply been the result of an overemphasis on the accidents which have occurred in the area.
It is suggested in the passage that -----.
A) navigating the Bermuda Triangle during the day is preferable to night
B) the Bermuda Triangle is located close to the shore
C) more accidents occur in the Bermuda Triangle during the winter
D) rescue planes can easily retrieve lost boats
