Soru 32 : The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will soon be testing a controversial theory about the collapse of the World Trade Center towers.

NIST is responsible for drawing up the final report on the towers' collapses and recommending if any changes are needed.

Soru 37 : “Historian Andrew Lambert went on a modern day voyage to Australia, on a replica of Captain Cook’s ship Endeavour. Although those who served on the ship found some elements of this image convincing, they recognised that they should not allow their delicate 21st century sensibilities to cloud their judgement. Their first contact with the alternative world of Captain Cook was the food. A diet of salt meat, hard biscuit and sauerkraut was a shock to them, but their predecessors would have considered it superior to anything available on shore. Every ship’s captain would have ensured the crew was well fed, and kept their dinner time sacred, usually allowing the men 90 minutes to deal with their tough rations. They would only be called from the mess table in an emergency .

Soru 50 : The nail grows from a point near the roots below the skin. This semi-circle named the 'lunula' comprises a group of cells that manufacture keratin, a dead, hoof-like protein. Though nails grow an average of two inches per year, their growth slows with age, and the average adult's fingernails grow only one inch in eight months. The base of the nails is embedded into the skin. Unlike other skin, it contains elastic fibres that connect it to the nail, and hold it firmly in place. The cuticle, a rim of skin over the lunula, protects it from bacterial infection, serves as a shock absorber, and shields the nail from any sudden impacts. Normally, the lunula is white in colour, indicating proper nutrition and good overall health. Blue lunula raise red flags that circulatory problems to the fingers may exist. Nails that are hard, brittle, and tend to split easily, may also be clues to poor circulation, infection, or disturbances of the glandular and nutritional systems. Those curling sharply around the finger point to coronary, liver, or lung diseases.
It is understood from the passage that the lunula ----.
A) is another name for keratin produced by our nails
B) refers to the roots below the skin
C) is the white tip of the finger which indicates good health
D) is a chemical substance found in adults’ fingernails
E) is made up of cells producing a kind of protein
