Part 3: Reading
Read the passages below and choose the correct answer among A, B, C or D.

One of the most dangerous drugs for pregnant women to consume is alcohol . Because
alcohol. Because alcohol is delivered quickly into the blood and passes quickly into the
tissues and membranes, the human fetus is particularly vulnerable to its effects. In fact, the
negative effects on a fetus are so pronounced that babies born after exposure to alcohol are
said to be suffering from fetal alcohol syndrome.
As a pregnant woman drinks alcohol, the alcohol is passed into her bloodstream almost
simultaneously. Moreover, because the bloodstream of the fetus is inextricably tied to that of
the mother, the alcohol passes directly into the bloodstream of the fetus as well. And what is
more, the concentration of alcohol in the fetus is exactly the same as in the mother. For the

mother, this concentration is not a problem because her liver can remove one ounce of alcohol
from her system per hour. However, the fetus's liver is not completely developed (how
developed it is depends on its stage of development). The rate at which it is able to eliminate
the alcohol from the blood of the fetus is much slower. Eventually, the alcohol will be
returned to the mother's system by passing across the placenta, but this process is slow. By
the time this takes place, major neurological damage may have already occurred. Research
has shown that as little as one drink of alcohol can produce significant, irreversible damage to
the fetus. Babies born after exposure to alcohol generally exhibit facial distortion, inability to
concentrate, and difficulty in remembering. Simply speaking, it is imperative that pregnant
women avoid alcohol.

36. What is the main topic of this reading?
A. Women and drugs B. The dangers of pregnancy
C. The fetus and alcohol D. Drinking and the human body
37. How much time can it be inferred that it takes alcohol to enter a woman's bloodstream
after she takes a drink?
A. about one hour B. a few seconds
C. several minutes D. at least 24 hours
38. According to the passage, how does the concentration of alcohol in a fetus compare to
that in the mother.
A. The concentration is more B. The concentration is less
C. The concentration is equivalent D. The concentration cannot be measured
39. It can be inferred that the development of a fetal liver depends on
A. how many months pregnant the mother is
B. how much alcohol the mother has consumed
C. how large the fetus is
