PART NINE
For the question 71-75, read the following article and circle the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Persons sixty-five years and over already represent 13 percent of the total population inAmerica, and by 2025 there will be 59 million elderly Americans, representing 21 percent of thepopulation of the United States. Furthermore, the percentage of the population over age eighty-five will increase from about 1 percent currently to 5 percent in 2050. This population trend has been referred to as the graying of America. To explain this demographic change, we must look at three factor. Fertility, mortality, and immigration in large part influence all demographic trends. The large number of children born after World War II will increase the pool of elderly between 2010 and 2030. The “baby boom” will become the “senior boom” sixty-five years later. Although the birth rate is the most dramatic factor, the decline in the death rate is also significant. Medical advances have influenced life expectancy. For example, whereas only 40 percent of those Americans born in 1900 had a life expectancy of sixty-five, today 80 percent are expected to reach the classic retirement age. The average male life span, now 71.4 years, is expected to increase to 73.3 by 2015. Among females, the life span is projected to increase from the current 78.3 years to 81.3 years by 2015. In addition, immigration has
contributed to the increasing number of elderly. After World War I, a massive immigration of young adults of child-bearing age occurred. Because the birth rates among this specialized population were very high, their children, now among the elderly, are a significant segment of the older population.
71. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

Question 17-20: Read and choose the correct answer 

DISCOVERY OF SON DOONG CAVE 

From an early age, local man Ho Khanh used to spend weeks on end trekking and maneuvering his way through the jungles of the Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, searching for food and timber to earn a modest income. 

In 1990, while out on a hunting mission, Ho Khanh stumbled across an opening in a limestone cliff and moved forward to investigate. As he approached, he noticed clouds billowing out of the entrance, and could hear the sounds of a river raging from somewhere inside the cave. 

When he could feel a strong wind also blowing out from the cave, he decided to move on without further inspection. By the time he had returned to his home a few days later, he had forgotten its exact location and thought no more of it. 

At the same time, two members of the British Cave Research Association (BCRA), Howard and Deb Limbert, were basing themselves in Phong Nha to conduct exploratory cave expeditions in the area. While chatting with Ho Khanh one say, he mentioned to the caving experts that he had found a cave with clouds and a river inside. Howard and Deb were intrigued and urged Ho Khanh to try and rediscover the cave. After many failed attempts, they began to think this elusive cavern might remain lost in the jungle forever more. 

In 2008, while out on another food gathering trip, Ho Khanh found the mysterious opening again and studiously took note of the path on how to get there. In 2009, he led Howard, Deb and a team of professional back to the cave for the first expedition to enter what would later become known as Hang Son Doong, or “Mountain River Cave”
