READING COMPREHENSION
DIRECTIONS: In this subtest you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions
about it. For items 1-50, you are to choose the one best answer, A, B, C, and D, to each question. Then
blacken the circle that corresponds to the letter of your choice in the Answer Sheet. Answer all questions
following a passage on the basis of what is started or implied in that passage.
Selection A (Items 1 – 8)
1. One reason that so many people fail is that they lack confidence in themselves. If you think of
yourself as being unworthy of great achievement, you will never achieve greatness. If, on the
other hand, you know yourself and understand what your abilities are, and if then you are
determined to accomplish everything of which you are capable, you will then realize all your
possibilities and gain confidence in yourself.
2. One of the surest ways to accomplish this is for you to associate with persons who have really
achieved greatness. It is impossible, however, for most people to come frequently into the
actual presence of the great. The next best thing, perhaps, is for you to spend part of your time
in reading about great achievers. Biography is a powerful stimulant to action.
3. But these processes will not work unless you rid yourself of a sense of inferiority and determine
to do the best that you possibly can. One of the great philosophers expressed the idea in a single
sentence when he said that each individual should hitch his wagon to a star.
6. What literary technique was used by the writer in presenting his ideas?
A. Narration C. Comparing ideas
B. Detailed analysis D. Giving suggestions
7. According to the author, what is one of surest ways to achieve self-confidence?
A. Read lots of informative books
B. Deal with people who have achieved greatness
C. Befriend people who are self-sufficient
D. Develop a strong and independent personality
8. Based on the selection, what conclusion may be drawn?
A. Confidence in oneself is crucial in achieving success.
B. Associating with well-known individuals is enough to propel one to succeed.
C. Reading the biographies of great people is essential for one to become successful.
D. Confidence in the ability of others is needed to boost one’s chances of succeeding.
1. The complacent Filipino majority may not have been awakened yet to the reality of a ravaged
environment; nonetheless, the evidence must be overemphasized. Automotive vehicles for one,
reportedly contribute 94.6 million tons of waste released into the air each year; a commuter can
only imagine how polluted the air that gets into his respiratory system is.
2. Pollution experts are inclined to single out man as the culprit of his own destruction. Man, rightly
referred to as a “messy animal,” has helped bring about untold environmental decay.
3. Imperiled by the pollution of air, water and land are not only human lives. The marine species as
well as the flora and fauna are just adversely affected. Mass suicides of fishes and whales have
been witnessed along Australian and American shorelines.
4. The mushrooming of factories and plants along river banks have been largely responsible for the
pollution of the different bodies of water; indiscriminate disposal of industrial waste makes
festering sinks of the rivers. Too much dumpling of industrial waste renders to water stagnant.
Many of the rivers that used to flow along industrial banks can use some dredging. And yet what
good will dredging of a river do if in no time at all it will serve again as a dumping basin? The
initiative has to come from the factory owners.
5. A great number of scientists like o think that new technology can be called upon to check the
impending pollution disaster, others are of the opinion that fewer births and less gadgetry may
yet provide the answer to the devastating dilemma. It cannot be denied, however, that man’s
wasteful ways call for some measure of discipline.
6. Man’s brutality toward his environment will only lead to his unmarking. It is ironical, indeed,
hat he who was created to have dominion over every living creature on earth should one day
be overpowered by an environment he has helped to pollute. The catastrophe can hopefully
still be averted.
48. Which paragraph mentions the countries wherein most overseas Filipino workers are employed?
A. Fourth Paragraph B. Third Paragraph C. Fifth paragraph D. Last Paragraph
49. What conclusion may be derived based on the foregoing discussion?
A. Most OFW’s come from poor families.
B. It is difficult for OFW’s to stay employed abroad.
C. Families of OFW’s prosper due to a large income.
D. OFW’s work abroad to improve their family living conditions.
50. What might happen if most Filipinos continue to prefer working abroad than in their own
country?
A. The economy will suffer from the loss of its most skilled workers.
B. The economy will remain as it is in spite of workers going abroad.
C. The country will become rich because of foreign workers’ earnings.
D. The country will become highly industrialized.
