 	COLORS AND EMOTIONS 
Colors are one of the most exciting experiences in life. I love them, and they are lust as important tome as emotions are. Have you ever wondered how the two are so intimately related? 
Color directly affects your emotions. Color both reflects the current state of your emotions, and is something that you can use to improve or change your emotions. The color that you choose to wear either reflects your current state of being, or reflects the color or emotion that you need.
The colors that you wear affect you much more than they affect the people around you. Of course they also affect anyone who comes in contact with you, but you are the one saturated with the color all day! I even choose items around me based on their color. In the morning. I choose my clothes based on the color or emotion that I need for the day. So you can consciously use color to control the emotions that you are exposed to, which can help you to feel better. 
Color, sound, and emotions are all vibrations. Emotions are literally energy in motion; they are meant to move and flow. This is the reason that real feelings are the fastest way to get your energy in motion. Also, flowing energy is exactly what creates healthy cells in your body. So, the fastest way to be healthy is to be open to your real feelings. Alternately, the fastest way to create disease is to inhibit your emotions.

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 43 to 50. 
Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two- thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has driven egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs. These eggs substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or bailing. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called “designer” eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low- flat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of their diet, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Eggs producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed results. It may be that is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may he more sensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certainly dietary fats stimulate the body’s production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one’s intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level. 
Question 43. What is the main purpose of the passage? 
A. To introduce the idea that dietary tat increases the blood cholesterol level. 
B. To make people know about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol. 
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten. 
D. To convince people to eat “designer” eggs and egg substitutes. 
Question 44. What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs? 
A. Increasing price 	B. Decreased production 
C. Dietary changes in hens 	D. Concerns about cholesterol 
Question 45. What is meant by the phrase mixed results? 
A. The results are blended. 	B. The results are a composite of things. 
C. The results are inconclusive. 	D. The results are mingled together. 
Question 46. Which of the following could best replace the word ‘somewhat’? 
A. in fact 	B. a little 	C. indefinitely 	D. a lot 
Question 47. According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol? 
A. ¾	B. 2/3 	C.1/2 	D.1/3 
Question 48. The word “portrayed could best be replaced by which of the following? 
A. studied 	B. destroyed 	C. tested 	D. described 
Question 49. What is the meaning of “back up”?
