Directions
: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For
each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET
with a single line through the center.

Passage One
Mount Vesuvius is an active volcano located just east of Naples, Italy. It is the only volcano
on the continent of Europe to
have erupted in the last one hundred years, though other volcanoes have erupted on i
slands in the Mediterranean Sea. In
1631, approximately three thousand people were killed by an eruption from Mount Vesuvius. Since 1631, the 4,200 foot
high volcano has erupted at least twenty one times. Mount Vesuvius
is considered particularly dangerous because today
,
nearly three million people live in the direct path of a potential future eruption.

Mount
Vesuvius
is
most
famous
for
its
landmark
eruption
in
the
year
79
AD,
which
buried
the
cities
of
Pompeii
and
Herculaneum in layers of burning ash. The
only account of the eruption that survives is from
Pliny the Younger. From
his
dramatic account, scientists believe the cloud of ash
he witnessed that descended
upon Pompeii was twenty miles high.
The
city
of
Pompeii
was
completely
buried.
It
was
rediscovered
in
1748,
more
than
1600
years
after
the
eruption.
The
people
of
Pompeii
were
found
buried
under
12
layers
of
soil.
Many
of
the
buildings
were
amazingly
well-preserved,
as
were the bodies of those who were just going about their daily routines when the eruption occurred. The ruins at Pompeii
have provided archaeologists with valuable information about how people in the Roman Empire lived. Today, Pompeii is
one of the most visited sites in Italy.

16. In the last one hundred years, _______ volcano(es) erupted on the European Continent.
A. twenty one






















B. two
C. only one
























D. seventeen

17. Today, Mount Vesuvius is considered particularly dangerous because __________ .
A. it is the most active volcano in the world
B. three million people will be in danger if it erupts
C. three thousand people were killed in 1631 eruption
D. this volcano is 4,200 foot high

18. It was in the _______ eruption that the city of Pompeii was destroyed.
