SOAL 3
The following text is for question 3 and 4.
DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid. It consists of “backbone” of altering sugar and phosphate molecules. In each sugar is attached one of four nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine or A, G, T, C). A single gene might contain 2,000 of these bases, and in the body cell of a human being the 46-chromosomes run to 3,000 million bases. The order of this bases stores information for making amino acids into proteins, just as the order of letters in this sentence information for making a particular verbal structure. However, the DNA alphabet actually only has four letters (A, G, T, C).
DNA is a double molecule, similar to a twisted ladder. Its two main strands twining around each other to form the famous double helix. The strands are linked by pair of bases – A and T or G and C – whose shape is such that each pair fits together neatly, like pieces of a jigsaw, to form rungs of the DNA ladder. As a result, the information on the strands can be duplicated by unzipping the double helix and making new strands by using the old ones as templates. DNA stores, duplicates and passes on the information that makes life alive.
The famous form of DNA is known as ....

Freshwater Environment

From earliest times, man has been finding new uses for freshwater and making new demands upon the world’s freshwater resources. Today, the whole of modern society depends upon a vast supply to serve its agricultural, industrial, domestic, and other needs of freshwater.
Of all major activities that depend on freshwater, agriculture is by far the World’s largest costumer. In much of Europe and Latin America, rainfall is usually not enough to water the corps. In the other parts of the world, the climate simply does not produce enough rainfall. Therefore, farmers use irrigation. This technique is an essential element of agriculture.
Freshwater is not only an integral part of agriculture. It also plays an important role in industrial sector. As a source of power, it has been used since the early days of civilization in water wheels that is one of man’s first industrial inventions. Today, these simple devices are rarely seen in industrial societies, but water power is more important than ever before.
Freshwater system has also developed for recreation and sport. Lakes are stoked with fish, and waterways are dredged to provide sailing and swimming facilities. People have been developing freshwater system for leisure pursuits.
According to the text, the sector which is most dependent on freshwater environment is ....

SOAL 8
The following text is for question 8 to 10.

Desert

Deserts are lands of the Earth which are so short of water. Not all deserts are hot, sandy wastelands; some are cold, some are rocky, but all lack moisture for most of the year.
Desert occurs when rainfall is low and infrequent and where any moisture quickly evaporates or disappears instantly into the dry ground. In the driest desert, rain occurs rarely. Hot deserts have very high daytime temperatures in summer, although they drop sharply at night. The winters, however, are relatively mild. In the so-called cold deserts, the summers are hot but the winters are so cold that temperatures might fall as low as -30 0C.
Even so, a variety of plants and animals have adapted to this hostile environment. Plants have developed clever way of surviving long periods of drought, and many desert animals shelter during the intense heat of the day, appearing only at night to feed.
Plant growth depends on water, and desert plants are usually widely spread out to reduce competition for what little moisture available. Many plants rely on short, sharp rainstorm. Others make use of dew and crevices in rocks, where water can accumulate. Some complete their life cycle in a single wet season, producing seeds that lie dormant during the following drought and germinate only when there is enough moisture from them to grow.
Animals, too, need to obtain and converse water at all cost and to be able to adjust to extreme of temperature. Most are small enough to shelter under stones or in burrows during intense heat of day; others survive adverse conditions by becoming dormant or by migrating. For some desert creatures, it is an advantage to have pale in color so that they are hard to see against the light background of sands.
