space in the “solid” ground underfoot to hold all this water.

  1. Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about the ground that we walk on?

  ○It cannot hold rainwater for long periods of time.

  ○It prevents most groundwater from circulating.

  ○It has the capacity to store large amounts of water.

  ○It absorbs most of the water it contains from rivers.

  2. The word “incredible ”in the passage is closest in meaning to

  ○Confusing

  ○Comforting

  ○Unbelievable

  ○Interesting

  Paragraph 2: The necessary space is there, however, in many forms. The commonest spaces are those among the particles—sand grains and tiny pebbles—of loose, unconsolidated sand and gravel. Beds of this material, out of sight beneath the soil, are common. They are found wherever fast rivers carrying loads of coarse sediment once flowed. For example, as the great ice sheets that covered North America during the last ice age steadily melted away, huge volumes of water flowed from them. The water was always laden with pebbles, gravel, and sand, known as glacial outwash, that was deposited as the flow slowed down.

  3. The word “out of sight” in the passage is closest in meaning to

  ○Far away

  ○Hidden

  ○Partly visible

  ○Discovered

  4. According to paragraph 2, where is groundwater usually found?

  ○Inside pieces of sand and gravel

  ○On top of beds of rock

  ○In fast rivers that are flowing beneath the soil

  ○In spaces between pieces of sediment
