42 -It is stated in the passage that ---- .
A) the Hindenburg was one of the first great airships 
B) there were sixty -two people on board at the time of the disaster 
C) ocean liners filled with hydrogen often ended up with explosions 
D) after the Hindenburg disaster, there were no more airships of the same type

Mountaineering as a sport has developed since about 1857, when the Alpine Club was 
founded in London. Earlier, climbers did not climb for pleasure but for some scientific or 
monetary motive, Dr Paccard of Chamonix was the first to scale Mont Blanc, in 1786, to 
show that man could live above the snow -line, but it was the lectures of Albert Smith, 
who climbed the peak in 1851, that kindled British interest. In 1854, Wills climbed the 
Wetterhorn and eleven years later, Whymper made his famous ascent of the Matterhorn. 
By 1880, all the major peaks of the Alps had been scaled, and so climbers went further 
afield to the Andes and the Himalayas. 
43 -The passage states that before the 1850s, ---- .
A) one had to pay in order to climb mountains 
B) mountain climbing cost a lot of money 
C) the Alpine Club opened in London 
D) people only climbed for research purposes 
E) climbing was not regarded as a hobby 
 
44 -British People in general first paid attention to mountaineering when --- .
A) Mont Blanc was climbed for the first time 
B) the Alpine club was initially founded in London
C) they realised that man could live above the snow -line 
D) a man made a series of, speeches on the subject 
E) Dr Paccard climbed Mont Blanc in 1786 
45 -It is implied that European climbers first started climbing mountains outside 
Europe ---- .
A) because the Alps in Europe took far too long to climb 
B) once they had been inspired by Albert Smith's lectures 
C) in order to obtain the sizeable financial benefits on offer 
D) so that they could make field maps of other areas 
E) as they wanted to climb previously unclimbed mountains 
Fossil analysis reveals that at least five periods in the last 600 million years have seen a 
drastic reduction in the number of species of flora and fauna on the Earth. However, on 
previous occasions such changes were brought about by asteroids or dramatic climatic 
changes. Experts in general believe that this decline is the work of man. The dominance of 
a single species type, homo sapiens, threatens to turn the rest of the living 'world upside 
down. With a population of barely six billion, humans are rapidly destroying irreplaceable 
ecosystems. This sixth round of global dying of species could be far larger than the first
