Most people are afraid of sharks, but they usually do not know much about them. For
example, there are about 350 species of sharks that live in oceans over the world. All of
the sharks are carnivores, but most of them don’t attack people. Unlike many other kinds
of fish, sharks do not have bone and ears. However, they “hear” sounds and movements in
the water. Any sound or movement makes the water vibrate. Sharks can feel these
vibrations, and they help the sharks find food. Sharks use their large eyes to find food, too.
Most sharks see best in low light. They often hunt for food at dawn, in the evening, or in

the middle of the night.

cancer is common in many animals, including people. However, it is rare in sharks.

distributions are often a consequence of other threats: populations confined to one or a few
small areas because of habitat………………, for example, may be disastrously affected by
random factors. Diseases can have severe…………………on species lacking natural
genetic protections against particular pathogens, like the rabies and canine distemper
viruses that are currently devastating carnivore populations in East Africa. Domestic

VII. Read the passage and do the following tasks.
For many years people believe that the cleverest animals after man were chimpanzees.
Now, however, there is a proof that dolphins may be even cleverer than these big apes.
Although a dolphin lives in the sea, it is not a fish. It is mammal. It is, in many ways,
therefore, like a human being.
Dolphins have a simple language. They are able to talk to one another. It may be
possible for man to learn how to talk to dolphins. But this will not be easy because
dolphins can not hear the kind of sounds man can understand. Dolphins are also very
friendly towards man. They often follow ships. There are many stories of dolphins guiding
ships through difficult and dangerous waters.

VII. Read the following passage and choose the best answer among A, B, C, or D.
Reading, as you know, is a continuous and never ending process. If you do very little
reading, or if you read only material that offers no challenge to your comprehension, your
reading will be of very little use. Once we reach a certain age, or once our formal
schooling is completed, many of us become so restricted in our choice of .reading that we
rarely read any new type of reading experience. We tend to read only books in our
professional or business field, or only inspirational books, or only our favorite newspapers
every morning, or only one magazine for which we have developed a preference. And the
trouble starts here. You should neither read only for entertainment nor only for information
but you should also read for intellectual growth, for mental stimulation, for enriching your
background of knowledge, for wisdom, and for broader outlook and mature understanding.
What kind of books should you read to continue your intellectual growth, to gain a

background for opinion and for judgment? The answer is simple one: Read books in fields
you have little or no acquaintance with, books that will open for you new horizons of
