Though Edmund Halley was most famous because of his achievements as an astronomer, he
was a scientist of diverse interests and great skill. In addition to studying the skies, Halley was also
deeply interested in exploring the unknown depths of the oceans. One of his lesser-known
accomplishments that was quite remarkable was his design for a diving bell that facilitated
exploration of the watery depth.
The diving bell that Halley design had a major advantage over the diving bells that were in use
prior to his. Earlier diving bells could only make use of the air contained within the bell itself, so
divers had to surface when the air inside the bell ran low. Halley’s bell was an improvement in that
it allowed for an additional supply of fresh air that enabled a crew of divers to remain underwater for
several hours.
The diving contraption that Halley designed was in the shape of a bell that measured three feet
across the top and five feet across the bottom and could hold several divers comfortably; it was
open at the bottom so that divers could swim in and out at will. The bell was built of wood, which
was first heavily tarred to make it water repellent and was then covered with a half-ton sheet of lead
to make bell sank to the bottom.
The air inside the bell was not the only source of air for divers to breath, and it was this
improvement that made Halley’s bell superior to its predecessors. In addition to the air already in
the bell, air was also supplied to the divers from a lead barrel that was lowered to the ocean floor
close to the bell itself. Air flowed through a leather pipe from the lead barrel on the ocean floor to
the bell. The divers could breathe the air from a position inside the bell, or he could move around
outside the bell wearing a diving suit that consisted of a lead bell-shaped helmet with a glass

6. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 56 to 65
Because use writing has become so important in our culture, we sometimes think of it as more
real than speech. A little thought, however, will show why speech is primary and writing is
secondary in language. Human beings have been writing (as far as we can tell from surviving
evidence) for at least 5000 years; but they have been talking for much longer, doubtless ever since
there have been human beings.
When writing did develop, it was derived from and represented speech, although imperfectly.
Even today, there are spoken languages that have no written from. Furthermore, we all learn to talk
well before we learn to write; any human child who is not severely handicapped physically or
mentally will learn to talk: a normal human being cannot be prevented from doing so. On the other
hand, it takes a special effort to learn to write; in the past many intelligent and useful members of
society did not acquire the skill, and even today many who speak languages with writing systems
never learn to read or write, while some who learn the rudiments of those skills do so only
imperfectly.
To affirm the primacy of speech over writing is not, however, to disparage to latter. One
advantage writing has over speech is that it is more permanent and makes possible the records that
any civilization must have. Thus, if speaking makes us human, writing makes us civilized.
