the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Carbohydrates, which are sugars, are an essential part of a healthy diet. They provide the main
source of energy for the body, and they also function to flavor and sweeten foods. Carbohydrates
range from simple sugars like glucose to complex sugar such as amylase and amylopectin.
Nutritionists estimate that carbohydrates should make up about one-fourth to one-fifth of a person's
diet. This translates to about 75-100 grams of carbohydrates per day.
A diet that is deficient in carbohydrates can have an adverse effect on a person’s health. When
the body lacks a sufficient amount of carbohydrates, it must then use its protein supplies for energy,
a process called gluconeogenesis. However, this result in a lack of necessary protein, and further

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.
Many people are unaware of how many of the products we use every day comes from petroleum
and natural gas. In the United States each family of four uses more than two tons of petroleum
products annually. That’s almost 1200 lb of chemicals each year for every man, woman, and child in
the United States - a staggering total of 225 billion pounds of chemicals from petroleum, and to a
lesser extent, natural gas.


ĐỀ THI 26

Of the vast amount of petroleum and natural gas we consume, more than 90 percent is burned as
fuels. Only about 5.5 percent is used for the manufacture of petrochemicals by the chemical
industry. These petrochemicals vary widely in their functions and include such products as drugs,
detergents, rubber, paints, fertilizers, dyes, perfumes, explosives, food preservatives, artificial
sweeteners, and agricultural chemicals. Finally, about 1.5 percent of the oil and natural gas is used
as raw material for plastics. This small percentage translates into the production of billions of
pounds of polymers that yield many different and useful products.
In Post-world War II years, the United States was flooded with domestic and imported items of
extremely low cost, low quality, and limited lifetime. This led to the image of “cheap plastics” with
low durability. Today, however, the image of plastics has changed. Plastics perform an extremely
broad range of functions, from heart valves and artificial kidneys to ski boots, non-stick surfaces,
superglues, and spacecraft parts, and they compete with natural products in durability. No other
materials except plastics could perform all these different functions.
Plastics are replacing more and more parts of your car. The use of 1 lb of plastic can replace an
average of 3.5 lb of metal in an automobile. An automobile with 400 lb of plastic substance for

metal with weigh about 1000 lb less, which increases its gas mileage by about 3 mi/gal. The fuel
savings are estimated to be about 160 million barrels of oil annually. That's more than the total
amount used by the chemical industry as raw materials to make the polymers. As another example,
synthetic polymer fibers are commonly used in fabrics, for both economical and practical reasons. If
the world’s synthetic fibers were replaced by cotton, this would require an additional 40 million
acres of farmland.
Question 43. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Production of petroleum and natural gas
B. The versatility of petrochemicals
C. New uses of plastic in automobile
D. Plastics and plastic products
Question 44. According to the passage, the percentage of petroleum and natural gas that is used in
the production of plastics is _______.
A. large
B. tiny
C. extravagant
D. efficient
Question 45. The word "yield" is closest in meaning to _______.
A. gain
B. surrender
C. produce
D. require
Question 46. The word "flooded" is closest in meaning to _______.
A. inundated
B. damaged
C. promoted
D. in need of
Question 47. It can be inferred from the passage that after World War II plastic products in the U.S
were all of the following EXCEPT _______.
A. inexpensive
