1 At first glance, it may seem trite to maintain that a classroom could be regarded as a network of interrelationships in which group members participate more intensely than they do in the interaction occurring at the same time beyond their classroom doors. On second thought, however, one might recognize that it is indeed a new and initially rather disconcerting way to look at a group of learners and teachers. We are in the habit of thinking of them as a number of individuals, merely gathered together momentarily within a particular room. A class is a group, we might want to insist, or a class represents a room in a school plant. Both these definitions are obvious. Of what possible use is it to confuse the obvious by defining a class as a "system"? But is the concept of "system" really that difficult? We encounter it often in our daily experience. We saythat a football team has developed a system of working together in particular ways to foil its opponents. We worry about our digestive system when we suffer from stomach pains. We are familiar with the solar system. We argue about the public transportation system of our city, or the telephone
system connecting remote corners of the country. What is common to all these usages is the idea of a pattern of interdependent relationships. A telephone system is characterized not so much by those little boxes scattered across the nation as by the interconnecting communication linkages or pathways that the technology makes possible. A solar system is not merely an aggregate of heavenly bodies; it represents bodies interacting in regular ways, on the basis of certain principles of relationship.
Q:All of the following can be inferred from the passage EXCEPT
 <div>A classroom and a football, match have a common factor that both are based on connected people</div> <div>A telephone is a source of connecting scattered entities of various communities</div> <div>When we feel stomach pain, we go in separation with other people</div> <div>Modern communication means provide medium to connect people</div>
2 Unfortunately, nuclear power isn't a good answer to our need to get loose from our Middle East oil dependency. For all its chrome-plated promise, nuclear power has fallen flat on its face and the worst is yet to come. Nucleafpower plants are now facing a challenge that their designers never anticipated, though they should have-what to do with the power plants after their useful lives are over. Nuclear power plants last 30 years or less. After 30 years, a reactor's pressure vessel becomes brittle and subject to breakage, simply as a result of constant bombardment by nuclear particles. In addition, after 30 years or so, the radioactivity in pipes and valves has accumulated to a point where maintenance workers are receiving unacceptable doses of radioactivity, so more maintenance crews must come in (to reduce the time any one worker spends getting zapped), which makes maintenance expensive. Old nuclear plants cannot simply be abandoned, or demolished with a wrecking ball. They are full of radioactivity, all of which must be kept away from living things. Much of the radioactivity decays away within 50 years, but three million years must pass before a nuclear plant becomes no more radioactive than the original uranium that initially fueled it.
Q:Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?
 Nuclear Engineering is an unattractive carver Nuclear energy is cheap source of energy and poor countries must acquire nuclear energy plants Abandoned power plants should safely be bored to ground under deep sea, so that it does not cause radiation pollution Nuclear plants should be banned throughout the world

Q: The author's indication about the actual threat that a nuclear power plant offers, can be best described by which of the following statement?
 The life of nuclear plant is about 30 years The radiation leakage cannot be prevented during the normal operation of a nuclear plant Radiation pollution by demolished nuclear plants lasts for centuries The workers in nuclear plant are not safe from the radiation
