Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer

The modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electric lights, radio, televisions,
and telephones that it is hard to imagine what life would be like without them. When there is a
power failure, people grope about in flickering candlelight. Cars hesitate in the streets because
there are no traffic lights to guide them, and food spoils in silent refrigerators.

Yet, people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago.
Nature has apparently been experimenting in this field for millions of years. Scientists are
discovering more and more that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of
electricity that could benefit humanity.

All living cells sent out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats, it sends out pulses of
recorded electricity; they form an electrocardiogram, which a doctor can study to determine
how well the heart is working. The brain, too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be
recorded in an electroencephalogram. The electric currents generated by most living cells are
extremely small-of-ten so small that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in
some animals, certain muscle cells have become so specialized as electrical generators that
they do not work as muscle cells at all. When large numbers of these cells are linked together,
the effects can be astonishing.

The electric eel is an amazing storage battery. It can send a jolt of as much as eight hundred
volts of electricity through the water in which it lives. An electric house current is only one
hundred twenty volts.) As many as four fifths of all the cells in the electric eel’s body are
specialized for generating electricity, and the strength of the shock it can deliver corresponds
roughly to the length of its body.

Throughout history, various people have demonstrated a high degree of confidence in the ability
of certain animals to predict the weather. It may seem surprising today in view of the complex
equipment now involved in weather forecasting to understand that in certain cases, the behavior
of animals does indeed provide an indication of inclement weather. Sensitivity of certain
animals to falling air pressure or to low-frequency sound waves that humans cannot hear, which
are indicators of approaching storms, causes behaviors in animals that certain societies have
come to recognize as predictors of storms.

A number of animals are remarkably sensitive to variations in air pressure, and some of these
animals show consistent, noticeable, and predictable behaviors as air pressure drops before a
storm hits. When the air pressure drops before a storm, some animals move closer to the ground
to equalize the pressure in their ears: some birds such as swallows tend to stay on the ground or
roost in trees instead of soaring in the skies when a storm is imminent because of the
decreasing air pressure. Other animals make more noise than usual as air pressure drops: an
unusual amount of quacking by ducks and a high volume of croaking by frogs are both
indicators that are believed to occur because of the high degree of sensitivity of ducks and
frogs to the change in pressure. Finally, still other animals become more active before storms as
a reaction to the falling air pressure: dolphins and porpoises seem to be taking part in a frenzied
sort of play, and bees and ants become more active prior to storms, most likely because of their
sensitivity to lower pressure.

There is good reason to believe that the fact that these animal behaviors seem to occur regularly
prior to storms may have a scientific basis and that the animals demonstrating these behaviors
may actually be good short-range weather forecasters. However, their ability to predict long-
range weather patterns is rather suspect. Certain proverbs, for example, are based on what is
most likely the idea that squirrels are good indicators of long-range weather patterns. One
proverb indicates that, if a squirrel seems busier than usual in gathering nuts, then a long and
cold winter is on its way; however, this behavior in squirrels is more likely due to a large supply
of nuts available for gathering, which occurs because of earlier good weather, and is not an

indicator of cold weather to come. Another proverb about squirrels indicates that if a squirrel
grows a long and bushy tail in the fall, then a particularly harsh winter is on its way; in this case
too, the squirrel develops a long and bushy tail because of earlier good weather and not as a
warning of bad weather to come.
