Cabin Environment
There is an erroneous perception that the cabin environment of a pressurized aircraft is bad. That is not true. Treated by HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arrestance) filters - similar to those used in organ transplanting and burn hospital units - the air in airplane cabins is climatized and dehydrated, which makes the environment free from fungi and bacteria and - because the air relative humidity becomes very low - even protects the existing airborne electronic equipment (avionics). The air flow is directed downwards, thus reducing the rate of contamination between seats. Additionally, all of the cabin air is replaced every three minutes. This will keep the oxygen rates throughout the aircraft at much higher levels than those required by human consumption, and carbon dioxide and particulate matter at acceptable levels with respect to passenger safety, health and comfort.

Text 2:
According to archeologists and anthropologists, the earliest clothing probably consisted of fur, leather, leaves or grass, draped , wrapped or tied about the body for protection from the elements. Knowledge of such clothing remains inferential, since clothing materials deteriorate quickly compared to stone, bone, shell and metal artifacts. Archeologists have identified very early sewing needles of bone and ivory from about 30,000 BC, found near Kostenki, Russia, in 1988.

1. Consider the following information:
1. The different materials that clothes were probably made of in far past.
2. The processes of making woven fabrics used in clothing.
3. The reason people wore clothes.
4. The year when some ancient sewing needles were found.
What information is in the text?
a) Only 1 and 2 are.
b) Only 3 and 4 are.
c) Only 1, 3 and 4 are.
d) Only 2 and 4 are.
e) Only 1, 2 and 3 are.
2. Consider the following information:
1. The history of clothing from its beginning until recent years.
2. The reason it is difficult to know about earliest clothing.
3. The materials used in artifacts that made clothes deteriorate.
4. A place where archeologists found ancient sewing needles.
5. The different ways our ancestors used to put on their garments.
What information is in the text?
a) Only 1 and 3 are in the text.
