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.
 The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites (commonly used to preserve colour in meats) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.
 The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.
A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest.
 Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge.
Question 36: What is the best title for this passage?
A. Avoiding Injurious Substances in Food	B. Harmful and Harmless Substances in Food
C. The Food You Eat Can Affect Your Health	D. Improving Health through a Natural Diet
Question 37: The word "prone" is nearest in meaning to........
A. predisposed	B. supine	C. healthy	D. unlikely
Question 38: All of the following statements are true EXCEPT......
A. Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals.
B. Drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons.
C. Researchers have known about the potential hazards of food additives for more than forty-five years.
D. Food may cause forty percent of the cancer in the world.
Question 39: What are nitrates used for?
A. They cause the animals to become fatter.	B. They preserve the colour of meats.
C. They preserve flavour in packaged foods.	D. They are the objects of research.
Question 40: The word "additives" is closest in meaning to.......
A. added substances	B. natural substances	C. dangerous substances	D. benign substances

B. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food.
C. It caused a lack of information concerning the value of food.
D. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables.
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.
 Psychologists have debated a long time about whether a child’s upbringing can give it the ability to do outstandingly well. Some think that it is impossible to develop genius and say that it is simply something a person is born with. Others, however, argue that the potential for great achievement can be developed. The truth lies somewhere between these two extremes. It seems very obvious that being born with the right qualities from gifted parents will increase a child’s ability to do well. However, this ability will be fully realized only with the right upbringing and opportunities. As one psychologist says, "To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel."
 Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins that were separated shortly after birth and brought up by different parents. They found that achievement was based on intelligence, and later influenced by the child’s environment. One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted.
 One of the twins received a normal upbringing, and performed well. The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive parents and given every possible opportunity to develop its abilities. That twin, though starting out with the same degree of intelligence as the other, performed even better. This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability. The more favourable the environment, the more a child’s intelligence and ability are developed. However, there is no link between intelligence and the socioeconomic level of a child’s family. In other words, it does not matter how poor or how rich a family is, as this does not affect intelligence.
 Gifted people cannot be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them. One professor of music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary performers, often because their parents had recognized their ability. These musicians then needed at least ten years’ hard work and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining. People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice:
 - Marry an intelligent person.
 - Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents.
 - Start a child’s education early but avoid pushing the child too hard.
 - Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instruments is essential for a child who wants to become an outstanding musician.
Question 43: The word "others" used in the first paragraph refers to.......
A. other people	B. other children	C. other scientists	D. other geniuses
Question 44: The upbringing of highly intelligent children requires......
A. good musical instruments	B. parental support and encouragement
C. wealthy and loving parents	D. an expensive education
Question 45: All of the following statements are true EXCEPT......
A. to become successful, a child needs both native intelligence and development
B. educational development depends completely on economic well-being 
C. a child’s intelligence is influenced by that of his / her parents
D. studying different twins is a useful scientific procedure
Question 46: The remark: "To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel." in the passage means that in order to become a genius......
A. you need intelligence and you need to develop it
B. you must nourish your brain and train your muscles hard
C. you should try to move quickly and efficiently
D. you need to have good health and good nourishment
Question 47: Scientists chose twins for their study because......
A. they have the same genetic background, usually with similar intelligence
B. they are born into the same family, hence the same upbringing
C. they have the same economic background and hence the same opportunities
D. each twin has the same environment as his / her twin
Question 48: When scientists studied intelligence and ability in twins, they found that......
A. ability depends mainly on intelligence and achievement
B. ability depends both on intelligence and on environment
C. different twins generally have different levels of ability
D. intelligence and development are irrelevant to ability
Question 49: The word "favourable" in the passage mostly means......
A. "under the control or in the power of somebody else"
B. "good for someone and making him/her likely to be successful"
C. "helping somebody to be more intelligent compared to other people"
D. "of high quality or an acceptable standard"
Question 50: How were great musicians different from ordinary musicians in their development?
A. They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic.
B. They practice playing their instruments for many years.
C. They concentrated on music to the exclusion of other areas.
D. Their ability was realized at an early stage and then nurtured.
