READING COMPREHENSION (10 pts ) READING 1: Read the text below and then answer the questions 61-70. Mount Everest stands at the eastern end of the Greater Himalayan Range, on the border between Nepal and Tibet. Surrounded by snow, the peak of the world’s highest mountain yet is seldom covered with the ice. Mount Everest dominates the view even from alpine region 32 km to the southwest. Seen from a distance, the Himalayan Mountains rise like the towers of a faraway fairy tale palace. Snow-capped peaks glitter white in the sunshine as if made of finest marble. In a shape of a shallow crescent moon, around 2,415 km long – roughly the distance from London to Moscow – the highest mountain range in the world is between 160 km and 240 km wide. Three of the world largest rivers – the Indus to the north and west, the Brahmaputra to the north and east, and the Ganges to the south – encircle the Himalayas almost completely. The name of the Himalayas comes from the Sanskrit word meaning “home of the snow”. The mountains are commonly thought of as a single range, but in fact there are composes of three ranges. The lowest and southernmost range, known as the Siwalik Hills, has peaks reaching about 1,500 m above sea level. Farther north are the Lesser Himalayas, around three times as high. Both ranges are surrounded by valleys where the climate is mild and many villages thrive. The northernmost range, the Greater Himalayas, contains Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain at 8,848 m above sea level. Though they towel so high, the Himalayas began their existence on the floor of a sea – the ancient remains of fish and other marine life are often found among the snows. The oceans and continents of the world are carried on immense, constantly moving “plates”. About 60 millions years ago, the plate bearing India moved northward, breaking the floor of an ocean known as the Tethys against the land of the Asia. The rock between them broke. The ocean floor was piled up in layer upon layer of disturbed rock. Century by century, uplifted land became mountains and plateaus. These natural forces are still at work – scientific estimates put the upward progress of the Himalayas at around 5 cm a year. In 1987, scientists concluded that Mount Everest and the other Himalayas giants had been born around 20 million years ago, making them 10 million years older than had been previously thought. 61.

Read the passage and choose the correct answer from 71 to 80 One of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramid of Giza was a monument of wisdom and prophecy built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 B.C.
