PART 3. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer A, B, C or D. Write your answer in
the space provided. (10 points)
The first people to inhabit what today is the southeastern United States sustained themselves as
hunters and gathers. Sometimes early in the first millennium A.D., however, they began to cultivate corn
and other crops. Gradually, as they became more skilled at gardening, they settled into permanent villages
and developed a rich culture, characterized by the great earthen mounds they erected as monuments to
their gods and as tombs for their distinguished deed. Most of these early mound builders were part of the
Adena-Hopewell culture, which had its beginnings near the Ohio River and takes its name from sites in
Ohio. The culture spread southward into the present-day states of Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, and
Florida. Its peoples became great traders, bartering jewellery, pottery, animal pelts, tools, and other
goods along extensive trading networks that stretched up and down eastern North America and as far west
as the Rocky Mountains.
About A.D. 400, the Hopewell culture fell into decay. Over the next centuries, it was supplanted
by another culture, the Mississippian, named after the river along which many of its earliest villages were
located. This complex civilization dominated the Southeast from about A.D. 700 until shortly before the
Europeans began arriving in the sixteenth century.
At the peak of its strength, about the year 1200, it was the most advanced culture in North America.
Like their Hopewell predecessors, the Mississippians became highly skilled at growing food, although on
a grander scale. They developed an improved strain of corn, which could survive in wet soil and a
relatively cool climate, and also learned to cultivate beans. Indeed, agriculture became so important to the
Mississippians that it became closely associated with the Sun – the guarantor of good crops. Many tribes
called themselves "children of the Sun" and believed their omnipotent priest-chiefs were descendants of
the great sun god.
Although most Mississippians lived in small villages, many others inhabited large towns. Most of
these towns boasted at least one major flat-topped mound on which stood a temple that contained a sacred
flame. Only priests and those charged with guarding the flame could enter the temples. The mounds also
served as ceremonial and trading sites, and at times they were used as burial grounds.

Wealth in a cold climate
6
A
Dr William Masters was reading a book about mosquitoes when inspiration struck. “There was this
anecdote about the great yellow fever epidemic that hit Philadelphia in 1793,” Masters recalls. “This
epidemic decimated the city until the first frost came.” The inclement weather froze out the insects,
allowing Philadelphia to recover.
B
If weather could be the key to a city’s fortunes, Masters thought, then why not to the historical fortunes of
nations? And could frost lie at the heart of one of the most enduring economic mysteries of all — why are
almost all the wealthy, industrialised nations to be found at latitudes above 40 degrees? After two years of
research, he thinks that he has found a piece of the puzzle. Masters, an agricultural economist from
Purdue University in Indiana, and Margaret McMillan at Tufts University, Boston, show that annual
frosts are among the factors that distinguish rich nations from poor ones. Their study is published this
month in the Journal of Economic Growth. The pair speculate that cold snaps have two main benefits —
they freeze pests that would otherwise destroy crops, and also freeze organisms, such as mosquitoes, that
carry disease. The result is agricultural abundance and a big workforce.
C
The academics took two sets of information. The first was average income for countries, the second
climate data from the University of East Anglia. They found a curious tally between the sets. Countries
having five or more frosty days a month are uniformly rich; those with fewer than five are impoverished.
The authors speculate that the five-day figure is important; it could be the minimum time needed to kill
pests in the soil. Masters says: “For example, Finland is a small country that is growing quickly, but
Bolivia is a small country that isn’t growing at all. Perhaps climate has something to do with that.” In
fact, limited frosts bring huge benefits to farmers. The chills kill insects or render them inactive; cold
weather slows the break-up of plant and animal material in the soil, allowing it to become richer; and
frosts ensure a build-up of moisture in the ground for spring, reducing dependence on seasonal rains.
There are exceptions to the “cold equals rich” argument. There are well-heeled tropical countries such as
Hong Kong and Singapore (both city-states, Masters notes), a result of their superior trading positions.
Likewise, not all European countries are moneyed — in the former communist colonies, economic
potential was crushed by politics.
D
Masters stresses that climate will never be the overriding factor 一 the wealth of nations is too complicated
to be attributable to just one factor. Climate, he feels, somehow combines with other factors such as the
presence of institutions, including governments, and access to trading routes to determine whether a
country will do well. Traditionally, Masters says, economists thought that institutions had the biggest
effect on the economy, because they brought order to a country in the form of, for example, laws and
property rights. With order, so the thinking went, came affluence. “But there are some problems that even
countries with institutions have not been able to get around,” he says. “My feeling is that, as countries get
richer, they get better institutions. And the accumulation of wealth and improvement in governing
institutions are both helped by a favourable environment, including climate.”
E
This does not mean, he insists, that tropical countries are beyond economic help and destined to remain
penniless. Instead, richer countries should change the way in which foreign aid is given. Instead of aid
being geared towards improving governance, it should be spent on technology to improve agriculture and
to combat disease. Masters cites one example: “There are regions in India that have been provided with
irrigation, agricultural productivity has gone up and there has been an improvement in health.” Supplying
vaccines against tropical diseases and developing crop varieties that can grow in the tropics would break
the poverty cycle.
F

7
Other minds have applied themselves to the split between poor and rich nations, citing anthropological,
climatic and zoological reasons for why temperate nations are the most affluent. In 350 BC, Aristotle
observed that “those who live in a cold climate… are full of spirit”. Jared Diamond, from the University
of California at Los Angeles, pointed out in his book Guns, Germs and Steel that Eurasia is broadly
aligned east-west, while Africa and the Americas are aligned north-south. So, in Europe, crops can spread
quickly across latitudes because climates are similar. One of the first domesticated crops, einkorn wheat,
spread quickly from the Middle East into Europe; it took twice as long for corn to spread from Mexico to
what is now the eastern United States. This easy movement along similar latitudes in Eurasia would also
have meant a faster dissemination of other technologies such as the wheel and writing, Diamond
speculates. The region also boasted domesticated livestock, which could provide meat, wool and motive
power in the fields. Blessed with such natural advantages, Eurasia was bound to take off economically.

PART 5: You are going to read an article about the use of gadgets by people doing outdoor
activities. For questions 1-10, choose from sections A-E. The letters may be chosen more than once.
(10 points)
KIT MAN
Gadgets that bring home comforts to the great outdoors have given rise to a new breed of outdoor
adventurer. But purists are unconvinced.
A Up there, in the clear fresh air, it isn't just the stars that are glowing. You can climb a mountain and
find at the top of it a nightmare of hi-tech gadgetry and hardship-avoidance devices. Worried about
getting lost? Relax with a handheld GPS unit, featuring 3D and aerial display, plus built-in compass and
barometric altimeter. Even the sacred covenant between outdoor types and wet socks has come unravelled
with the development of 'hydrophobic' fabrics which repel all moisture. At next month's Outdoors Show
in Manchester, all this kit and more will be on display for an audience which seemingly can't get enough
of it. 'When we ask people what they come to the show for, they list two things,' says the event's sales
manager, Geff Simons. 'One is the inspiration to get outdoors in the first place. And the other is to see the
new gear, the gadgets, the breakthroughs. That's what they love.' The event, the showcase of Britain's
booming adventure business shows everything the tech-savvy adventurer could wish for, from solar-
heated sleeping bags to remote-controlled lanterns.
В The rise of Kit Man, as the gizmo-fixated menace of the 21 ST century mountains has been
christened, reflects both changing social trends and the dizzying speed of scientific advance. Modern
hikers have moved on from the Spartan routines of 50 years ago, when discomfort, bad food and danger
were seen as part of the authentic outdoor experience. They also have more money and a conditioned
attachment to life's luxuries. However, basic pioneering disciplines - map-reading, camp-laying, First Aid
- have declined, to be shakily replaced by the virtual skills offered by technology. With so much gear now

8
available, Kit Man and his kind stand accused by the old-schoolers of being interested only in reaching
the summits of gadgetry.
C 'I think these people are completely missing the point,' huffs author and TV presenter Guy Grieve,
who spent a year living alone in the Alaskan wilderness. The whole idea of going into the wild is to get
away from the things that tie you in knots at home. I'd prefer to take as little as possible - a tent, a rifle,
and a few pots and pans. All this technology, I mean, it might look fantastic on paper, but when there's a
real problem, it's almost certainly going to let you down. What will see you through is the old stuff, the
maps and the bits of rope. There are times when you need that kind of dependability. Who'd want to be
stranded out in the wild with a gadget freak?' Travel and adventure writer Clive Tully agrees. 'Be
suspicious of anything that claims to make your life easier,' he warns. 'My experience is that people who
depend on technology are woefully ill-prepared in other ways. You still need to be able to read a map and
do the basic stuff.'
D None of which is enough to keep Kit Man from his toys. The mountains and hills are alive with the
sound of ringing mobiles, beeping biometric pressure metres, clicking ultra-violet radiation sensors and
the whirring of the current ultimate in gadget chic - a micro-helicopter which can be controlled from an
iPod to send back live pictures of the route ahead. Thus tooled up, Kit Man must consider what he is to
wear. And as any visit to a contemporary outdoor store shows, this involves not only acquiring new
clobber, but new jargon. When he asks about a pair of trousers, he will learn about Moisture Vapour
Transfer Rate, Hydrostatic Heat Resistance and Wickability. He'll be told that the vest he's interested in is
fitted with a particular membrane, and that the boots which caught his eye have a built-in air-conditioning
system with advanced longitudinal flex and heel-to-toe shock absorbers.
E It is tempting to scoff at Kit Man, but not everyone sides with the romantics. Many in the
adventure business say gadgets have encouraged thousands who would otherwise not have ventured into
the great outdoors. Evidence from the American market also suggests that technology has had a positive
environmental impact, and increased safety standards. Then there's research from Germany's Institute for
Biological Cybernetics, which suggests that, left to their own devices, humans are doomed to wander
round in circles. 'We cannot trust our own senses,' says its director Dr Jan Souman. The déjà vu that you
feel when you are lost in the woods is real. The brain will bring you back to where you started.'
