Animation traditionally is done by hand-drawing or painting successive frames of an object, each slightly
different than the preceding frame. In computer animation, although the computer may be the one to draw the
different frames, in most cases the artist will draw the beginning and ending frames and the computer will
produce the drawings between the first and the last drawing. This is generally referred to as computer-assisted
In full computer animation, complex mathematical formulas are used to produce the final sequence of
pictures.
professionals are needed to produce such effects because animation that obtains high degrees of realism
involves computer techniques for three-dimensional transformation, shading, and curvatures.
High-tech computer animation for film involves very expensive computer systems along with special color
terminals or frame buffers. The frame buffer is nothing more than a giant image memory for viewing a single
frame. It temporarily holds the image for display on the screen.
A camera can be used to film directly from the computer's display screen, but for the highest quality images
possible, expensive film recorders are used. The computer computes the positions and colors for the figures in
the picture, and sends this information to the recorder, which captures it on film. Sometimes, however, the
images are stored on a large magnetic disk before being sent to the recorder. Once this process is completed, it
is repeated for the next frame. When the entire sequence has been recorded on the film, the film must be
developed before the animation can be viewed. If the entire sequence does not seem right, the motions must be
corrected, recomputed, redisplayed, and rerecorded. This approach can be very expensive and time consuming.
Often, computer-animation companies first do motion tests with simple computer-generated line drawings
before selling their computers to the task of calculating the high-resolution, realistic-looking images.

<i><b>Questions 56 - 65. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the best answer to</b></i>
<i><b>each of the following questions. </b></i>
The response of most animals when suddenly faced with a predator is to flee. Natural selection has acted in a
variety of ways in different species to enhance the efficacy of the behaviours, known as "flight behaviours" or
escape behaviours that are used by prey in fleeing predators. Perhaps the most direct adaptation is enhanced
light speed and agility.
Adaptations for speed, however, are likely to require sacrifices biter attributes, so we might expect only some
species to adopt a simple fast flight strategy.
Another way of enhancing the effectiveness of flight is to move in an erratic and unpredictable way. Many
species, like ptarmigans, snipes, and various antelopes and gazelles, flee from predators in a characteristic
zigzag fashion. Rapid unexpected changes in flight direction make it difficult for a predator to track prey.
In some species, like the European hare, erratic zigzag flight might be more effective in the presence of
predators that are faster than they are and straight light more effective against predators that are slower. One
observation that supports this suggestion is the recorded tendency for slow-flying black-beaded gulls, which are
normally able to escape predators by means of direct flight, to show frequent changes in flight direction when
they spot a peregrine falcon (peregrines are adept at capturing flying birds).
A quite different way of enhancing escape by flight is to use so-called "flash" behaviour. Here, the alarmed prey
56. The word "<i><b>enhance" is closest in meaning to... </b></i>

A. is faster than most of its predators B. is capable of two kinds of flight
C. is more likely to escape using straight flight D. is preyed upon by gulls and falcons
59. The behaviour of black-beaded gulls is most comparable to that of...
A. gazelles B. European hares C. peregrine falcons D. frogs

<i>the following reasons? </i>
A. The falcons are faster than the gulls. B. The gulls want to capture the falcons.
C. The falcons are unpredictable. D. The gulls depend on the falcons for protection.
A. moving B. selected C. frightened D. exhausted
62. All of the followings are mentioned as characteristics of "<i><b>flash" behaviour EXCEPT... </b></i>

<b>E. READING COMPREHENSION</b>
<b>I. Read the passage and choose the best answer.</b>
English has had a long tradition of borrowing words from other languages. This tradition began with the
conquest of Britain by the Norman-French in 1066. Because these conquerors established themselves as rulers,
their dialect of French became the language of the aristocracy, of government, and of education. During this
period, many French words came into the English language. Another strong influx of vocabulary came from
Latin, which was the language of the church Today, those words derived from French and Latin, though still
identifiable, are not thought of as foreign by English speakers. <i>Tradition, language </i>and <i>conquest </i>are words that
come to us from this tradition.
The British colonial era, which began in the early 17l<sub> century, brought English speakers into contact with many </sub>
other languages. In North America, words from the Native American peoples quickly found their ways into the
language Examples include <i>moccasin </i>(a kind of soft shoe), <i>squash </i>(a vegetable)
The presence of Spanish colonies in North America led to the adoption of numerous Spanish words, such as
<i>siesta </i>(a nap) and <i>tortilla </i>(a flat thin pancake). Asian languages also make contributions. For example, the word
<i>pyjamas </i>comes from a Hindi word, <i>khaki </i>comes from Urdu, and <i>ketchup </i>was borrowed from Chinese. Words
from African languages, too, made their ways into English when African slaves served in the United States. The
result of all of this absorption of new words is a very rich vocabulary that allows users of English to express
subtlety of meaning through their choice of words.
61. Many French words came into the English language when
A French traders did business with the British. B the Norman-French conquered Britain.
C British people ruled France in early 17th<sub> century.</sub> <sub>D African slaves worked in Great Britain.</sub>
62. <i>Tradition, languages </i>and <i>conquest </i>are examples of
A borrowed words no longer considered foreign. B words borrowed from Latin.
C words used in this passage. D words no longer popular in English.
63. Words from the Native American peoples came into English
A when Native American peoples came to Britain. B during the British colonial era
C in the 18lh<sub> century.</sub> <sub>D before those from Latin.</sub>
64. Words such as <i>squash, tortilla, ketchup </i>were all borrowed from
A other languages. B Asian languages.
C the Native American peoples. D African languages.
