READING EXAM

First read the text and finally answer the questions choosing the correct option.

Mexico

The country of Mexico is the third largest nation in terms
of land area, and second largest nation in terms of
population in North America. As of 2006, Mexico's
population was well over 100,000,000 people. Mexico is
located south of the United States and north of the
nations of Belize and Guatemala. The Rio Bravo (called
Rio Grande in America) forms much of the border between the United States
and Mexico. Spanish is the official language of Mexico.
Did you know that many of our words such as tornado, tomato, taco, armadillo,
and banana come from the Spanish language? In fact, much of our land came
from Mexico too. The states of Texas, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, California,
and Arizona were all part of Mexico before the Mexican War.

Mexico is a land full of contrasts. Northern parts of Mexico are dominated by the
Sonoran and Chihuahuan Deserts. The Sonoran Desert is the world's most
biologically diverse desert and contains the world's entire supply of Saguaro
Cacti. The central portion of Mexico is dominated by the mountainous Mexican
Plateau. The southern parts are characterized by rainforests.
Mexico's rainforests are high in biodiversity and feature animals such as jaguars,
cougars, and exotic parrots. Mexico features high mountain ridges on its Pacific
Coast and on its eastern sides.
Its highest point is known as Pico de Orizaba, located near the city of Puebla.
Pico de Orizaba rises 18, 701 feet above sea level. It is the third highest mountain
in North America, as well as the continent's highest volcano. Pico de Orizaba is
classified as a dormant volcano, as it last erupted in 1846.

Mexico is well known as a popular tourist destination.
People from all over the world come to bask on its
beautiful beaches in Cancun and Acapulco. In
addition, Mexico has dozens of important
archaeological sites that preserve ancient Mayan
ruins. The most famous site is Chichen Itza, a major
Mayan City that lasted over 600 years on the
Yucatan Peninsula.
As you can tell, there is a lot to do in Mexico and a lot of really neat things to
see. For more information, stop by your local library and check out a book on
Mexico, or, visit one of hundreds of websites dedicated to illustrating all that is
wonderful about Mexico.

SCIENCE EXAM


I. Read the text and then answers the questions
Atmospheric Layers


The atmosphere surrounding Earth is made up of several layers of gas mixtures.
The most common gases in our atmosphere are
nitrogen, oxygen and carbon dioxide. The amount of
the gases in the mixture varies above the different
places on Earth. The atmosphere puts pressure on the
planet. The amount of pressure becomes less and less
the further away from Earths surface you are. When we
think of the atmosphere, we mostly think of the part that
is closest to us. At any moment in time, the overall condition of Earths
atmosphere, including the part we can see and the parts we cannot, is called
weather. Weather can change, and it frequently does. That is because the
conditions of the atmosphere can change.
The four main layers in Earths atmosphere are the troposphere, the
stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere. The layer that is closest to
the surface of Earth is called the troposphere. It extends up from the surface of
Earth for about 11 kilometers. This is the layer where airplanes fl y. We experience
almost all weather in this layer. About three-fourths of our atmospheres air is also
found in the troposphere.
Just above the troposphere is the stratosphere. It extends to about 50 kilometers
above Earths surface. Most of our planets ozone layer is in this colder, drier
layer. Ozone is important to the health of our planet because it helps keep some
of the suns dangerous radiation from reaching the Earths surface.
If we continue upward, the next layer is the mesosphere, which extends up to
about 80 kilometers above Earths surface. The mesosphere is extremely cold. It
is within this layer that you are most likely to find meteors. Most meteors will
completely burn up before they reach Earths surface.
The final layer is the thermosphere, the layer that is closest to the sun.
Temperatures in the thermosphere can be over 1,500 Celsius.
Together, the layers of our atmosphere protect Earth. The atmosphere provides
the conditions needed to support life.

Answer the following questions based on the reading passage. Dont forget to go back to the passage
whenever necessary to find or confirm your answers.

1) Which layer of the atmosphere has most of
the air?
_______________________________________
_______________________________________
2) If you were to send a bottle rocket 15
kilometers up into the air, which layer of the
atmosphere would it be in?
_______________________________________
_______________________________________



3) What are the most common gases in Earths atmosphere?

_____________________________________________________________________________________

4) Why is it important to protect the stratosphere? ___________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________________________

5) Why arent there many meteors in the troposphere?
_____________________________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________________________


II. Label the layers of the Earth's atmosphere using the terms below.



Exosphere - the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere, where atmospheric
pressure and temperature are low.
Ionosphere - the atmospheric layer between the mesosphere and the exosphere; it is
part of the thermosphere.
Mesosphere - the atmospheric layer between the stratosphere and the ionosphere.
Stratosphere - the atmospheric layer between the troposphere and the mesosphere.
The stratosphere is characterized by a slight temperature increase with altitude and
by the absence of clouds.
Thermosphere - the layer of the atmosphere located above part of the ionosphere
(starting at the coldest part of the atmosphere) and below outer space; it consists of
the exosphere and part of the ionosphere.
Troposphere - the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The weather and clouds
occur in the troposphere.
