Text 2 is for question number 6 to 10.

Lasers (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) are devices which amplify light and produce beams of light which are very instance, directional, and pure in color. They can be solid state, gas, semiconductor, or liquid.

When lasers were invented in 1960, some people thought they could be used as ‘death rays’. In the 1980s, the United States experimented with lasers as a defense against nuclear missiles. Nowadays, they are used to identify targets. But apart from military uses, they have many applications in engineering, communications, medicine, and the art.

In engineering, powerful laser beam can be focused on a small area. These beams can heat, melt, or vaporize material in a very precise way. They can be used for drilling diamonds, cutting complex shapes in materials from plastics to steel, for spot welding and for surfacing techniques, such as hardening aircraft engine turbine blades. Laser beams can also be used to measure and align structures.

Lasers are ideal for communications in space. Laser light can carry many more information channels than microwaves because of its high frequency. In addition, it can travel long distances without losing signal strength. Lasers can also be used for information recording and reading. Compact discs are read by lasers.

In medicine, laser beams can treat damaged tissue in a fraction of a second without harming healthy tissue. They can be used in very precise eye operations.

In the arts, lasers can provide fantastic displays of light. Pop concerts are often accompanied by laser displays.

(A) Solid state

(B) Light Amplification

(C) Semiconductor or liquid

Text 3 is for question number 11 to 15.

The development of the horse has been recorded from the beginning through all its evolutionary stages to the modern form. It is, in fact, one of the most complete and well-documented chapters in paleontological history. Fossil finds provide us not only with detailed information about the horse itself, but also with valuable insights into migration of herds and even evidence for speculation about the climatic conditions that could have instigated such migratory behavior.

It has been documented that, almost twelve million years ago at the beginning of the Pliocene age, a horse, about midway through its evolutionary development, crossed a land bridge where the Bering Straits are now located, from Alaska into the grasslands of Europe. The horse was the hipparion, about the size of modern-day pony with three toes and specialized cheek teeth for grazing. In Europe the hipparion encountered another less advanced horse called the anchitheres, which had previously invaded Europe by the same route, probably during the Miocene Period. Less developed and smaller than the hipparion, the anchitheres was completed replaced by it. By the end of the Pleistocene Age both the anchitheres and the hipparion had become extinct in North America, where they had originated. In Europe they had evolved into an animal very similar to the horse as we know it today. It was the descendent of this horse that was brought by the European colonists to the Americas.
