Direction: Read the stories given below and answer the questions that follow: Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) was one of the most famous artists in the world. He was a painter, a sculptor, an architect as well as a poet. When he was 12 years old, Michelangelo began to learn to paint as an apprentice to the most popular painter in Florence. Before he completed his apprenticeship, he stopped painting and began to work as a sculptor at the age of 16. This was the beginning of a new life for Michelangelo when he began to create amazing paintings and sculptures. Among the most famous of his works is the painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. His paintings show the history of the world according to the Bible. It was not painting on the high ceilings that was difficult but also the technique that Michelangelo used. Pie had to paint the damp ceiling on which plaster had been freshly laid and complete the section before the paint dried out. He worked standing in an upright position for many hours at end and often complained of a stiff neck and of paint dripping in his eyes. Michelangelo also designed the Medici Chapel. In it, he sculpted two tombs for two princes of Florence. He moved out of Florence before he completed the Chapel. In his old age, Michelangelo wrote some of his finest poetry. He died at the age of 75. Michelangelo was a ________. |

My mother saw a Dancing Bear My mother saw a dancing bear By the schoolyard, a day in June The keeper stood with chain and bar And whistle-pipe and played a tune. The bruin lifted up its head.

They heard the keeper as he cried, "Now, roly-poly! Somersault" And then my mother said, there came The keeper with a begging-cup, The bear with burning coat of fur, Shaming the laughter to a stop.

DIRECTIONS: Read the following passages and answer the questions that follow. PASSAGE - 5 The Antarctic ice sheet is disappearing at twice the speed of when it was last surveyed, losing 159 billion tonnes of ice to the ocean every year. Three years of observations from the European Space Agency's (ESA) Cryo Sat satellite have surpassed scientists' worst fears. A20-year mean average determined from a combination of techniques on the ground predicted the continent's ice would be melting at half the current rate. Polar ice sheets are a major contributor to the global rise in sea levels and the losses in Antarctica alone are enough to raise levels by 0.45mm every year. From 2010 to 2013, West Antarctica, East Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula lost 134 billion, 3 billion and 23 billion tonnes of ice each year respectively. It is still a small fraction of the total area of Antarctica, which holds more than 26 million cubic km of ice. The research, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, was made possible by the Cryo Sat mission that-launched in 2010 to measure the variation in ice thickness in unprecedented detail. Dr Malcolm Macmillan from Leeds University, who was the lead author of the study, said ice losses were most pronounced along fast-flowing streams in the Amundsen Sea. He said they were disappearing at rates of 4 to 8 metres a year where ice streams are lifted from the land and float into the sea. The area has long been identified as the most vulnerable to changes in climate and assessments suggest its glaciers may have passed a point of irreversible retreat. Study the passage given above and answer the following questions. What are the possible causes of the melting of the ice in Antarctica? |
| A. | eating of ice by polar bears. |
| B. | global warming. |
| C. | pollution in Antarctica |
| D. | all of these. |
| Answer» C. pollution in Antarctica | |

Suddenly there was a thundering sound and it began to rain stones. The dwarfs were atop the hillocks and were pushing down cart loads of stones they had collected during the day.
