Section B Lyndon B. Johnson was the 8th Vice-president of the United States to take the place of a President who died in office, and he was surely one of the most colorful. Johnson came to Washington in 1930 as a congressional secretary, and he spent the next 38 years in the Nation's Capital. Despite all this time away from his native Texas, he never lost the speech or manners of his western, rural home. He told his close friends that his happiest times were when he was vacationing at his ranch in Johnson City, Texas, or walking along a dirty road. Much of his behavior seemed more suited for the ranch than for the more formal atmosphere of a cosmopolitan city. Johnson kept two dogs at the White House, and he loved to play with them. Once when reporter and photographers asked to be allowed to take pictures of the President playing with his pets, Johnson surprised everyone by picking up one of the animals by its ears. People were shocked. The President of the United States was laughing while a 20-pound dog dangled by the tips of its ears. Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard. 11. What was Johnson's job immediately before he became president? 12. When was Johnson's happiest time? 13. What did Johnson do when reporters asked to see him playing with his dog? Passage Two I am glad that all the members of our zoology class could come down to the zoo today to continue our animal adaptation. As you know, some animals are able to move between domestic and wild environments with relatively little difficulty. The first example of this that we will see here at the zoo is the wild burro. As you are probably aware, burros are relatives of the horse. Wild burros in the United States are descendants of the pack animals brought here three centuries ago by Spanish explorers, and these pack burros were in turn the descendants of wild African asses. About 100 years ago, gold prospectors came to the mountains and deserts of the western United States. Most of the prospectors were accompanied by steadfast companions -- burros. These animals were used along with the mule train that served the many mining operations. But when gold and silver mining died out, many of the prospectors turned their burros loose, they joined wild burros that were already roaming the hills and canyons who were the descendants of those brought by the Spanish. The prospectors knew that their burros were hardy animals, completely able to take care of themselves in the wild. The fact that there are over 11 thousand wild burros living in the western states today testifies to their great adaptive ability. Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard. 14. Who first brought the ancestors of wild burros to north America? 15. For what purpose did prospectors use burros? 16. What is the main reason that the speaker wants the students to study the burros? Passage Three Most people think of astronomers as people who spend their time in cold observatories peering through telescopes every night. In fact a typical astronomer spends most of his time analyzing data and many only be at the telescope a few weeks of the year. Some astronomers spends most of his time analyzing data and may not be at the telescope at all. You might not know how rarely images are view directly through telescopes. The most common way to observe the skies is to photograph them. The process is very simple. First a photographic plate is coated with a light-sensitive material. The plate is positioned so that the image received by the telescope is recorded on it. Then the image can be developed, enlarged and published so that many people can study it. Because most astronomical objects are very remote the light we receive from them is rather feeble. But by using a telescope, as a camera, long time exposures can be made. In this way objects can be photographed that are a hundred times too faint to be seen by just looking through a telescope. Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard. 17. According to the speaker, what do people often think about astronomers? 18. What is one advantage of photographing the skies? 19. Why do astronomers often use photographic plate? 20. What is one reason astronomers make long time exposures?
