Read the following passage, and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer
to each question.
The Alaska pipeline starts at the frozen edge of the Arctic Ocean. It stretches southward acros the largest and northernmost
state in the United States, ending at a remote ice-free seaport village nearly 800 miles from where it begins .It is massive in size
and extremely complicated to operate. The steel pipe crosses windswept plains and endless miles of delicate tundra that tops the
frozen group. It weaves through crooked canyons, climbs sheer mountains, plunges over rocky crags, make it way through thick
forests, and passes over or under hundreds of rivers and streams . The pipe is 4 feet in diameter and up to 2 million barrels or
84 million gallons of crude oil can be pumped through it daily. Resting on H-shaped steel racks called “bents,” long sections of
the pipeline follow a zigzag course high above the frozen earth .Other long sections drop out of sight beneath spongy or rocky
ground and return to the surface later on. The pattern of the pipeline’s up-and-down route is determined by the often harsh
demands of the arctic and subarctic climate , the tortuous lay of the land , and the varied compositions of soil , rock , or
permafrost permanently frozen ground. A little more than half of the pipeline is elevated above the ground .The remainder is
buried anywhere from 3 to 12 feet, depending largely upon the type of terrain and the properties of the soil. One of the largest in
the world, the pipeline cost approximately $8 billion and is by far the bigges and most expensive construction project ever
undertaken by private industry. In fact, no single busines could raise that much money, so 8 major oil companies formed a
consortium in order to share the cost .Each company controlled oil rights to particular shares of land in the oil fields and paid into
the pipeline –construction fund according to the size of its holdings. Today, despite enormous problems o climate, supply
shortages, equipment breakdowns, labor disagreements, treacherous terrain, a certain amount of mismanagement, and even
theft, the Alaska pipeline has been completes and is operating
