Cuttlefish are intriguing little animals. The cuttlefish resembles a rather large squid and is, like the octopus, a member of the order of cephalopods. Although they are not considered the most highly evolved of the cephalopods, they are
extremely intelligent. While observing them, it is hard to tell who is doing the observing, you or the cuttlefish, especially since the eye of the cuttlefish is very similar in structure to the human eye. Cuttlefish are also highly mobile and fast
creatures.
They come equipped with a small jet located just below the tentacles that can expel water to help them move. Ribbons of flexible fin on each side of the body allow cuttlefish to hover, move, stop, and start.
______________________________ ____________________. The cuttlefish is sometimes referred to as the
"chameleon of the sea" because it can change its skin color and pattern instantaneously. Masters of camouflage, they can blend into any environment for protection, but they are also capable of the most imaginative displays of iridescent,
brilliant color and intricate designs, which scientists believe they use to communicate with each other and for mating displays. However, judging from the riot of ornaments and hues cuttlefish produce, it is hard not to believe they paint
themselves so beautifully just for the sheer joy of it. At the very least, cuttlefish conversation must be the most sparkling in all the sea.
On the basis of above passage please answer the following question
Which of the following best outlines the main topics addressed in the passage?
A. I. of why cuttlefish are intriguing II. Communication skills of cuttlefish
B. I. Classification and difficulties of observing cuttlefish II. Scientific explanation of modes of cuttlefish communication
C. I. of the cuttlefish's method of locomotion II. Description of color displays in mating behavior
D. I. Comparison of cuttlefish with other cephalopods II. Usefulness of the cuttlefish's ability to change color
E. I. General classification and characteristics of cuttlefish II. Uses and beauty of the cuttlefish's ability to change color
Off-site disposal of regulated medical wastes remains a viable option for smaller hospitals (those with less than 150 beds). However, some preliminary on-site processing, such as compaction or hydropulping, may be necessary prior to sending the wastes off-site. Compaction reduces the total volume of solid wastes, often reducing transportation and disposal costs, but does not change the hazardous characteristics of the waste. However, compaction may not be economical if transportation and disposal costs are based on weight rather than volume. Hydropulping involves grinding the waste in the presence of an oxidizing fluid, such as hypochlorite solution. One advantage of hydropulping is that waste can be rendered innocuous and reduced in size within the same system. Disadvantages are the added operating burden, difficulty of controlling fugitive emission, and the difficulty of conducting microbiological tests to determine whether all organic matters and infectious organisms from the waste have been destroyed. On-site disposal is a feasible alternative for hospitals generating two tons per day or more total of solid waste. Common treatment techniques include steam sterilization and incineration. Although other options are available, incineration is currently the preferred method for on-site treatment of hospital waste. A properly designed, maintained, and operated incinerator achieves a relatively
high level of organism destruction.
Incineration reduces the weight and volume of the waste as much as 95 percent and is especially appropriate for pathological wastes.
On the basis of above passage please answer the following question
One disadvantage of the compaction method of waste disposal is that it
A. cannot reduce transportation costs.
B. reduces the volume of solid waste material.
C. does not allow hospitals to confirm that organic matter has been eliminated.
D. does not reduce the weight of solid waste material.
E. cannot be done on-site.
A narrow fellow in the grass Occasionally rides;
You may have met him did you not?
His notice sudden is.
The grass divides as with a comb,
A spotted shaft is seen,
And then it closes at your feet And opens further on.
He likes a boggy acre,
A floor too cool for corn,
Yet when a boy, and barefoot,
I more than once at noon Have passed, I thought, a whip-lash
Unbraiding in the sun,
When, stooping to secure it,
It wrinkled, and was gone.
Several of natures people I know and they know me;
I feel for them a transport Of cordiality;
But never met this fellow,
Attended or alone,
Without a tighter breathing And zero at the bone.
On the basis of above poem please answer the following question
Who or what is the "fellow" in this poem?
A. a whip-lash
B. a weed
C. a snake
D. a gust of wind
E. a boy

Leads4Pass is one of the best websites I have ever used. It only took me 3 days of preparation to complete my goal plan. Not only that, I was successful with high scores.

It was the 16th when I purchased the Leads4Pass materials. They updated the materials on the 18th. When I asked them to send me the latest materials, they quickly sent me the latest ones. The new materials included several of the latest core question types. Finally, I succeeded. Six of the new core questions were completely matched. Thank you!

I have used free materials, the privacy is poor, the public content matching rate is too low,I gave up on them because they failed me once. Leads4Pass was recommended by a friend. Both the privacy protection and the preciousness of the materials are very high. By the way, I won this time.
David Frazier
There is nothing more satisfying than success! Their question types are very similar, and they were very helpful to my progress in answering questions during the exam. Thank you.

I need to take multiple certification exams for my organization. There are so many certification exams that I can't help but choose supporting materials. I have tried multiple platforms with some success and failure. In the end, I chose Leads4Pass. It was instant for me. Effective materials are where the real value lies.
Helen Kovac
I was despised by a close friend until he failed twice and I passed once and then he changed his mind. He shared his failure experience with me. He told me that he had been learning through books and looking for free materials. These outdated contents could not really help him. Later I recommended him Leads4Passs and he also succeeded.

I was lucky enough to choose Leads4Pass for the first time. I used their VCE tool to learn, and it was really easy and efficient. I think what’s really amazing is that they can ensure that all materials are industry-leading, which is really amazing.
