I. Read the following passage carefully.

For centuries, people have been playing kicking games with a ball. The game of soccer
developed from some of these early games. The English probably gave soccer its name
and its first set of rules. In European countries, soccer is called football or association
football. Some people believe that the name "soccer" came from "assoc.," an
abbreviation for the word association. Others believe that the name came from the high
socks that the players wear. Organized soccer games began in 1863. In soccer, two teams
of eleven players try to kick or head the ball into their opponents goal. The goalie, who
tries to keep the ball out of the goal, is the only player on the field who is allowed to
touch the ball with his or her hands. The other players must use their feet, heads, and
bodies to control the ball. Every four years, soccer teams around the world compete for
the World Cup. The World Cup competition started in 1930.Brazil is the home of many
great soccer players, including the most famous player of all, Pel. With his fast
footwork, dazzling speed, and great scoring ability, Pel played for many years in Brazil
and then later in New York. During his 22 years in soccer, he scored 1,281 goals and
held every major record for the sport. People in more than 140 countries around the
world play soccer. It is the national sport of most European and Latin American
countries. Soccer is definitely the worlds most popular sport!

Read the following passage carefully.

Living things eat, grow and get rid of waste products. All living things are made
of cells. In even the tiniest unit of any living thing, there is a cell. Cells have special
structures called organelles. The organelles help cells do the work of moving materials
around, dividing to make more cells and making proteins for the bodys needs. Cells get
energy through a process called Cellular respiration. During this process, cells convert
sugar (called glucose) and oxygen into water and carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is the
gas we breathe out. This whole process releases energy for the cell to use. The energy is
stored as ATP. The cell keeps ATP in storage, like backup power. It can be taken out to
be used as needed. By storing ATP, the cell always has the energy it needs. Living things
can have just one cell or many. Single-celled organisms include things like bacteria,
yeast, and some types of algae. They do the same things that living things do. However,
they must do it all within just one cell. Multi-cellular organisms have billions of cells
that work together to provide for the organisms needs. Plant and animal cells both have
organelles. Some types of organelles are the same in both plant and animal cells. Other
types of organelles, however, are only found in plant cells or animal cells.
