12/1Questions 33 - 40 are based on the following passage
If you happen to be driving along the East Coast between April and August, it would
be worth stopping at Dungun. A couple of nights there would give you an educational
experience, for this is the time giant turtles come to lay their eggs.
What is so remarkable about these creatures? For one thing, they are among the
world’s longest living creatures. Some of them are believed to be more than a thousand years
old. Another remarkable fact about them is that they come from as far as South America ,
and find their way to the East Coast time and again. Scientists believe that these turtles
manage to find the east Coast beaches without fail because they were born there a long time
ago. Instinct guides them back.
Today turtle – watching has become a popular pastime for many in the East Coast. It
has also become a big business in Dungun. For a ringgit or two, one can wait in a neat shelter
specially constructed for watching turtles.
The turtles start coming in the early hours of the morning. They dig large holes in the
sand and deposit about one hundred and fifty eggs each. While laying, the turtles do not seem
to care what happens around them. Visitors can even touch them but they are not the least
scared. After the eggs have been laid and the holes covered up, the turtles return to the sea,
only to reappear the following year.
Until recently, most of the turtle eggs were gathered for sale. Now, however, the
government is concerned over the future of these creatures, and has imposed controls on egg-
collecting. Each season, government workers themselves gather the eggs and hatch them
under safe conditions so that they are protected from the hungry birds, snakes and crabs.
33 Why does the writer say you should stop at Dungun between April and August?
A All the turtles come to Dungun.B It is very breezy during this period.C That is the only time when turtles can be seen.D This is the period the turtles come to lay their eggs.
34 The word remarkable can BEST be replaced with
A unusualB funnyC goodD rare

38 From the passage, we learn that turtles

39 The government is concerned that if all the eggs are gathered for sale,
A birds, snakes and crabs will have no food.B the turtles will lay their eggs somewhere else.C there will be no turtles left in time to come.D local people will not be able to earn a living.
