TOLCH Psycology (2) İsim Soyisim E-Posta Telefon Q. 1 (text for Q.1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5) There seems no question but that the clock dial, which has existed in its present form since the seventeenth century and in earlier forms since ancient times, is on its way out. More and more common are the digital clocks that mark off the hours, minutes, and seconds in ever-changing numbers. This certainly appears to be an advance in technology. You will no longer have to interpret the meaning of “the big hand on the eleven and the little hand on the five.” Your digital clock will tell you at once that it is 4:55. And yet there will be a loss in the conversion of dial to digital, and no one seems to be worrying about it. Actually, when something turns, it can turn in just one of two ways, clockwise or counter-clockwise, and we all know which is which. Clockwise is the normal turning direction of the hands of a clock, and counter-clockwise is the opposite of that. Since we all stare at clocks (dial clocks, that is), we have no trouble following directions or descriptions that include those words. But if dial clocks disappear, so will the meaning of those words for anyone who has never stared at anything but digitals. The author maintains that, when dial clocks go out of use and only digitals are used, ----.Deselect Answer the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” will cease to carry any meaning people will continue to use the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” on a regular basis it will be quite confusing for everyone to tell the time right away most people will wonder about the meanings of the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” it will certainly be a major technological change unprecedented in the past None Q. 2 It is pointed out in the passage that the use of the clock dial ----.Deselect Answer is no longer practical since one is often confused about the meaning of the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” was most popular in the seventeenth century but has since lost its importance is still widely used despite the technological progress in the manufacture of digital clocks has improved enormously since the seventeenth century due to advances in technology has a very long history though at present it is becoming less and less popular None Q. 3 In the passage, the author admits that digital clocks, compared with dial clocks, ----.Deselect Answer have a number of drawbacks which make their use rather restricted can, in the long run, be replaced by technologically new and more efficient clocks are technologically more advanced and tell time very precisely do not seem to have much efficiency and easily break down have ceased to be in widespread use due to some inexplicable technological shortcomings None Q. 4 The author asserts that people ----.Deselect Answer are not aware of the fact that in antiquity time was completely disregarded do not seem to be concerned about “the loss” that the replacement of dial clocks by digitals will cause can also define their position accurately by using digital clocks today have a growing interest in dial clocks and value them very much have already stopped using the words “clockwise” and “counter-clockwise” to indicate directions None Q. 5 As has been pointed out in the passage, the word “clockwise” ----.Deselect Answer first came into use in the seventeenth century is used only in conjunction with the word “counter-clockwise” can also be used with reference to a digital clock signifies the direction in which the hands of a dial clock move has no meaning unless it is used with reference to a dial clock None Q. 6 (text for Q.6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10)A couple of months ago NASA asked the scientific community what kinds of research it should conduct when it returns humans to the moon. In doing so, NASA wanted prioritized research objectives for the robotic orbiters and landers that will be used primarily for reconnaissance purposes prior to later explorations by astronauts of the lunar surface. Recommendations made by scientists varied greatly, but they can be summarized. The top priority that scientists have recommended is the development of programmes for lunar data analysis. Next is the exploration of the moon’s south pole, which is called “the Aitken basin,” an impact scar mostly on the moon’s back side. Then comes an instrument network for probing the interior of the moon, and this is followed by rock sample returns, scientifically selected landing sites, and analysis of any icy polar deposits. From the research recommendations summarized in the passage, it becomes clear that ----.Deselect Answer there is still a lot that has to be learned about the moon scientists are extensively familiar with the structure of the moon the exploration of the lunar surface is not so urgent as understanding the inner structure of the moon the scientific community does not regard NASA’s objectives about the moon as feasible NASA is determined to make the moon a new base for space exploration None Q. 7 One understands from the passage that NASA ----.Deselect Answer and scientists have conflicting research objectives about the moon has already developed a multi-purpose research programme for the moon always consults the scientific community, but seldom takes its advice into consideration is planning to send robots to the moon before it sends astronauts has been indifferent to various recommendations made by scientists None Q. 8 As is clear from the passage, NASA’s purpose in consulting scientists is to ----.Deselect Answer make sure that its programmes for lunar data analysis are supported by them learn whether the moon has water deposited as ice under its poles find out about the kind of research which is primarily important for lunar exploration encourage them to focus their attention on a full study of the Aitken basin give them the opportunity to discuss their research results about the moon None Q. 9 According to the passage, one of the recommendations made by the scientific community concerns ----.Deselect Answer the scientific specification of the locations where robots or astronauts can land the problems related to the working of the robots orbiting the moon or landing on the surface the analysis of the rock samples that will be taken from the Aitken basin the tasks that will be performed by the astronauts when they explore the moon’s south pole the question of how NASA can benefit from the results obtained from lunar explorations None Q. 10 It is clearly stated in the passage that astronauts ----.Deselect Answer will use a variety of instruments only to learn about the interior of the moon will be sent to the moon to investigate the lunar surface will, in the first place, select a suitable spot for landing their craft are expected to discover icy deposits under the south pole have been trained to perform lunar data analysis None Q. 11 If an item is purchased at 150 dolars and sold at 165 dolars, what percent of the original cost is profit?Deselect Answer 110 percent 89 percent 100 percent 9 percent 10 percent None Q. 12 Deselect Answer A B C D E None Q. 13 Solve the equation (log)₂(x-3)+(log)₂(x-2)=1 for x.Deselect Answer 3 2 and 3 1 and 4 4 1 None Q. 14 Deselect Answer 3 1 2 0 -1 None Q. 15 Deselect Answer A B C D E None Q. 16 Deselect Answer -9 5 8 6 Not defined None Q. 17 In triangle ABC.

The natural numbers in Mathland have the same properties as our natural numbers; in particular they can either be even or odd. Tony discovered a special kind of natural numbers, Tony’s numbers; many contemporary mathematicians believe all Tony’s numbers are even, but the great Hiyam Smarta does not agree. This means that Hiyam Smarta believes that:Deselect Answer there is at least one Tony’s number which is not even if a natural number is not a Tony’s number, then it is odd all Tony’s numbers are odd no odd number can be a Tony’s number no even number can be a Tony’s number None Q. 30 We know that some students showed up for today’s test in school, but also that not all students of the school were present.
