With one of the planet's lowest population densities, the people of the Sahara can seem afloat in vast seas of sand. Blue-robed Tuaregs still run salt caravans and herd goat, sheep and camels. Moors farm date palms. An oasis in the Sahara can vary in size from about 2.5 acres for a tiny village to larger farm lands. At its hub is water, often in the form of natural springs, artesian wells or entire irrigation systems. About 75 percent of the Sahara's population live in oases, which make up only a tiny 800 square miles of the desert's vast sea of sand and gravel. The date palm is most characteristic of the vegetation that flourishes there. Other typical food sources grown in Saharan oases include figs, peaches, citrus fruits, wheat and barley.
adapted from http://www.pbs.org/wnet/africa/explore/sahara/sahara_overview_lo.html

According to the passage, why do most of the people of the Sahara live in oases?

because the Tuaregs build the oases
because people are moving off of farms
because the cities are too polluted
because oases have sources of water

South Africa must concern itself with marine pollution. South Africa is especially vulnerable to oil spills due to the high volume of oil transported around the country's coasts by ships from the Middle East to Europe and the Americas. The South African Department of Transport and the Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism cooperate to ensure both prevention of oil spills and clean-up in the event of accidents. Measures supported by the Department of Transport include the maintenance of at least a 12 mile distance from the South African coast, prosecution of ship owners if any oil is discharged from their ships, control of aircraft patrols over shipping lanes, and contingency plans for any oil spills that occur.

Answer 26

In the hours following the quake, Juan and the other students huddled in the brand new gymnasium. The whole school had been there for an assembly when the quake hit. Now the teachers were scurrying about like mice, trying to bring some order to the group.
“Everybody remain calm!” their shaky-voiced principal, Mrs. Furman, kept saying every few minutes.
“She needs to chill out,” Juan’s friend Tracy said as she pulled out her cell phone and tried to get a signal, then snapped it closed again.
“Man, I need to get home to check on my mom,” Juan said. “She’s alone at our apartment.”
“The streets are a mess,” Tracy reminded him. “Weren’t you listening? It’s more dangerous out there than in here. Besides, there could be another one—a worse one, even. You’ve lived in California long enough to know that.”
An emergency radio was brought in and set on the stage, near where Juan was standing. The news report blaring from it said that homes had collapsed all over town.
“That’s it!” Juan announced. “I’m going. My mom has nobody but me. I’ve got to make sure she’s okay.”
“Well, take my cell phone then,” Tracy handed hers to him, “just in case you can get a signal.”
“Thanks, T.,” Juan said as he put it in his backpack.
Just then, the ground shook beneath them, hard enough to knock Juan off his feet. The radio fell off the stage and clattered to the ground beside him. As soon as the rumbling stopped, kids began running every which way. Some made for the doors, while others called each other’s names, trying to find their friends. Tracy sat down beside Juan and put her arm around his shoulder.
“It’ll be all right, you gotta believe that,” she said. “Your mom’s okay out there. I just have a feeling, and my feelings are nearly always right.”

Answer 28

(1) When you see a small white sphere with red stitches, you immediately recognize it as a baseball. You may also have heard someone say, “He hit the cover off the ball!” But have you ever wondered what would come out from under that cover if that actually happened? What’s actually under there?
(2) First of all, the core of the baseball is made of cork. The cork is cushioned by two layers of rubber. The cushioned cork center is then wrapped with yarn. This yarn makes up most of the baseball. In fact, if you stretched out the yarn into a straight line, it would be longer than three football fields! Once the yarn is wrapped around the core, a white leather cover is applied with rubber cement and sewn together. Each ball has 216 stitches of waxed red thread, of which 88 inches, or more than seven feet, are used.
(3) The cover is very hard to remove and must be peeled away from the core. It takes a lot of time and effort to peel the cover away, so it’s unlikely that anybody will ever hit the cover completely off the ball. If it ever does happen, the ball was probably defective in the first place!

4.
Which of the following sentences would best introduce paragraph 3?

Legend states that some pitchers, such as Gaylord Perry, used to put substances on the ball to make it move more.
If anyone ever does hit the cover off the ball, odds are that the ball can easily be repaired as long as the cork center is still intact.
Sometimes, though, a player can actually hit the ball so hard that the cover will really go flying off.
If you imagined that "hitting the cover off the ball" would cause it to explode, you might be disappointed to know the truth.
