Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each blank.

WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR MEMORY

A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally, and a bad memory as something that cannot be changed. But, actually is a lot that you can do to improve your memory.

We all remember the things we are interested in and forget the ones that bore us. This no doubt explains the reason schoolboys remember football results effortlessly but struggle with dates from their history lessons! Take an active interest in what you want to remember, and focus on it . One way to ‘make’ yourself more interested is to ask questions - the more the better!

Physical exercise is also important for your memory, it increases your heart rate and sends more oxygen to your brain, and that makes your memory work better. Exercise also stress, which is very bad for the memory.

The old saying that “eating fish makes you brainy” may be true after all. Scientists have discovered that the fats found in fish like tuna, sardines and salmon - as as in olive oil - help to improve the memory. Vitamin-rich fruits such as oranges, strawberries and red grapes are all good ‘brain food’, too.

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

In August 1977, a massive radio telescope in Ohio recorded something amazing. An astronomer named Jerry Ehman was analyzing daily space data when he noticed an unusual radio signal. This mysterious sound lasted for exactly 72 seconds. It was so strong and strange that Ehman quickly wrote "Wow!" next to the numbers on the printed paper. Since then, this event has been widely known as the "Wow!" signal.

Many people excitedly believed the signal was a message sent by alien life. It seemed to come from a star group called Sagittarius, located far from Earth. The frequency of the radio waves was also very special. Scientists have long argued that advanced aliens would use this specific frequency to communicate across deep space. As a result, the discovery generated enormous excitement, but the mystery remains unresolved today.

Researchers have tried to detect the signal again using much more powerful telescopes, but they have never heard it twice. Some experts think it might have been a natural space event, such as a comet passing by. Others suggest it was just a technical mistake by human equipment. Because the telescope only caught the sound once, nobody can prove what really happened. The "Wow!" signal is still considered one of the greatest mysteries in modern astronomy.

According to paragraph 1, what is true about the signal's duration?

  • It lasted a little over one minute.
  • It lasted for more than one hour.
  • It lasted slightly under one minute.

According to paragraph 2, why did many people think the signal came from aliens?

  • It contained written words translated by scientists.
  • Its frequency matched predictions about alien signals.
  • It was recorded by the most powerful telescope on Earth.

The word "generated" in paragraph 2 is CLOSEST in meaning to _____.

  • produced

  • powered

  • prohibited

What can be logically inferred from paragraph 3?

  • Technical equipment failure has been proven as the main cause.
  • Modern telescopes have confirmed that a comet caused the sound.
  • Scientists cannot verify any theory without new recording data.

What is the main purpose of this passage?

  • To prove that alien life tried to contact Earth.
  • To describe a famous unexplained space event.
  • To explain how radio telescopes in Ohio operate.
