Read the following passage. Petroleum products, such as gasoline, kerosene, home heating oil, residual fuel oil and lubricating oils have a common source - crude oil that is found below the Earth's surface and under huge water bodies from a few hundred feet below the surface to as deep as 25,000 feet into the interior of Earth. Sometimes crude oil is secured by drilling a hole through the Earth, but more dry holes are drilled than those producing oil. Crude oil comes to the surface as result of pressure at the source or pumping. Crude oil wells flow at varying rates, from ten to thousands of barrel per hour. Petroleum products are always measured in 42 gallon barrels. Petroleum products vary greatly in physical appearance : thin, thick, transparent or opaque, but regardless their chemical composition is made up of only two elements : Carbon and Hydrogen which form compounds called Hydrocarbons. Other chemical elements found in union with the hydrocarbons are few and are classified as impurities. Trace elements are also found, but in such minute quantities that they are disregarded. The combination of carbon and hydrogen forms many thousands of compounds which are possible because of the various positions and joinings of these two atoms in the hydrocarbon molecule. The various petroleum products are refined from the crude oil by heating and condensing the vapours. Light oils such as gasoline, kerosene and distillate oil are the products. The residue remaining after the light oils are distilled is known as heavy or residual fuel oil, and is used mostly for burning under boilers. Additional complicated refining processes rearrange the chemical structure of the hydrocarbons to produce other products, some of which are used to upgrade and increase the octane rating of various types of gasolines.Now answer the following questions.1. The statement that is not true is ... (1) Crude oil is found below land and water. (2) Crude oil is always found a few hundred feet below the surface. (3) A variety of petroleum products is obtained from crude oil. (4) Pumping and pressure, forces crude oil to the surface. 2. Many thousands of hydrocarbons are possible because (1) The petroleum products vary greatly in physical appearance. (2) The atoms in the molecule assume many positions. (3) The pressure needed to force it to the surface causes molecular transformation. (4) Complicated refining processes rearrange the chemical structure. 3. The statement that is true is (1) The various petroleum products are produced by filtration. (2) Heating and condensation produces the various products. (3) Chemical separation is used to produce the various products. (4) Mechanical means such as the centrifuge are used to produce the various products. 4. The crude oil is brought to the surface through …. (1) Expansion of the hydrocarbons. (2) Pressure and pumping. (3) Vacuum created in the drilling pipe. (4) Expansion and the contraction of Earth's surface 5. Which of the following is not listed under light oils ? (1) Distillate oil (2) Gasoline (3) Lubricating oil (4) Kerosene |

Read the following passage.When life was rugged and simple, man's needs were few and he could supply them all. As he advanced from lone hunter to farmer and builder and exchanged a solitary existence for greater comfort and security of community life, he realized that he must come to an agreement with his neighbours on a common system of measurement. How can men build a house or a storage hut, or a temple unless all the builders use the same basic measurements ? The very earliest measurements were for length. The bases for the measures were those most natural - a foot, a palm, a span of the hand. When building alone, man could use his own body. But on community projects, a common standard was required. The leader's measurements were taken and marked off on a stick or a stone. Crude copies were made from the original and passed out for use. Later the foot gradually evolved to become twelve inches long.Now answer the questions given below. 1. The best title for the article could be……. (1) Building a hut. (2) Man's early problems. (3) Development of a standardized measurement. (4) The growth of communities. 2. The advance of man from solitary to common life created …….. (1) a decrease in his needs. (2) the dominance of tribal leaders. (3) a great demand for storage huts. (4) a need for standards of measurement.3. Some standardization of measurement occurred ….. (1) as a result of a dispute over the proper size of a hut. (2) because everyone's foot used to be almost the same length. (3) due to the accidental discovery that a foot equaled twelve inches. (4) when the leader's measurements replaced the individuals. 4. The author of the passage develops his point by means of ….. (1) factual explanation. (2) comparison and contrast. (3) arguments and proof. (4) persuasion. 5. A person who has a solitary existence lives (1) quietly. (2) alone. (3) with others. (4) in jail. |

Answer» 1. (3) Development of a standardized measurement. 2. (4) a need for standards of measurement. 3. (4) when the leader's measurements replaced the individuals. 4. (1) factual explanation. 5. (2) alone. |
