I. Read the passage and answer the questions ( 20/150 points ).
Passage 1. Knowledge often results only after persistent investigation. Albert Einstein, after a
lengthy examination of the characteristics of matter and energy, formulated his famous Theory of
Relativity, which now acts as a basis for further research in nuclear physics. Using plaster casts
of footprints, and stray strands of hair, a detective pertinaciously pursues the criminal. After
years of work Annie Jump Cannon perfected the classification of the spectra of some 350,000
stars. Investigations into the causes of polio have provided us with the means for prevention and
cure of this dreaded disease only after many years of research. As students, we too are
determined in our investigation to find, retain, and contribute to the store of human knowledge.
(1). How is this paragraph developed?
(2). How are the supporting details organized?
Passage 2. The middle Eastern bazaar takes you back hundreds----even thousands----of years.
The one I am thinking of particularly is entered by a Gothic-arched gateway of aged brick and
stone. You pass from the heat and glare of a big, open square into a cool, dark cavern which
extends as far as the eye can see, losing itself in the shadowy distance. Little donkeys with
harmoniously tinkling bells thread their way among the throngs of people entering and leaving
the bazaar. The roadway is about twelve feet wide, but it is narrowed every few yards by little
stalls where goods of every conceivable kind are sold. The din of the stall-holders crying their
wares, of donkey-boys and porters clearing a way for themselves by shouting vigorously, and of
would-be purchasers arguing and bargaining is continuous and makes you dizzy.
(3). What type of writing is the paragraph?
(4). What sensory details are focused in the writing？
