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.
Almost every language in the world has dialects and American English is no exception. At the present time
there is an interesting study which is on American speech habits. This study has shown that different words are
frequently used in different parts of the country to denote the same thing. For example, in the east, Americans use
the word "soda" to denote a soft drink. In some parts of the west, a soft drink is "tonic". Such differences are
usually a source of conversation and sometimes misunderstanding happens.
Speech and life all over the world have often changed. New words are being used when new discoveries are
made and new concepts are formed. Usage determines what is correct and what is incorrect. Fifty years ago, it was
incorrect to say "It's me." But today it is acceptable simply because most Americans say that instead of "It's I."
People change, so language changes. What is wrong today may be right tomorrow.

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.
Scientists work to genetically modify crops for various reasons. Sometimes the goal may be to develop a
crop that is resistant to disease or pesticides. 1 Another goal is to develop vegetables that have a longer shelf life.
Or, the purpose may be to develop a more nutritious form of a food plant. 2 An example of the latter is golden rice.
It was developed by scientists in Europe. They took ordinary rice and inserted genes from the flower called
daffodil, as well as a bacterium. 3 More to the point, however, it added vitamin A, a nutrient that rice does not
ordinarily have. 4
Vitamin A deficiency is a serious problem in many parts of the world. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to
blindness, compromised immunity, susceptibility to infection, and premature death. Children are especially
affected by lack of this vitamin. According to the World Health Organization, hundreds of thousands of children go
blind every year because of vitamin A deficiency.
Adding vitamin A to rice, which is a staple food in many areas where malnutrition is common, can be an
efficient way to address the problem. Consumption of a varied diet would, of course, be the most desirable way to
address nutrition needs. A number of vegetables, such as carrots and pumpkins, contain high amounts of vitamin A
and could address this vitamin deficiency. However, because of tradition, economic considerations, and other
issues, it is often not possible to pursue this type of solution. By introducing golden rice into areas where rice is
already consumed on a daily basis, researchers hope to provide a source of this vitamin that will become part of the
normal diet.

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.
Almost every language in the world has dialects and American English is no exception. At the present time
there is an interesting study which is on American speech habits. This study has shown that different words are
frequently used in different parts of the country to denote the same thing. For example, in the east, Americans use
the word "soda" to denote a soft drink. In some parts of the west, a soft drink is "tonic". Such differences are
usually a source of conversation and sometimes misunderstanding happens.
Speech and life all over the world have often changed. New words are being used when new discoveries are
made and new concepts are formed. Usage determines what is correct and what is incorrect. Fifty years ago, it was

incorrect to say "It's me." But today it is acceptable simply because most Americans say that instead of "It's I."
People change, so language changes. What is wrong today may be right tomorrow.

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.
Scientists work to genetically modify crops for various reasons. Sometimes the goal may be to develop a
crop that is resistant to disease or pesticides. 1 Another goal is to develop vegetables that have a longer shelf life.
Or, the purpose may be to develop a more nutritious form of a food plant. 2 An example of the latter is golden rice.
It was developed by scientists in Europe. They took ordinary rice and inserted genes from the flower called
daffodil, as well as a bacterium. 3 More to the point, however, it added vitamin A, a nutrient that rice does not
ordinarily have. 4
Vitamin A deficiency is a serious problem in many parts of the world. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to
blindness, compromised immunity, susceptibility to infection, and premature death. Children are especially

affected by lack of this vitamin. According to the World Health Organization, hundreds of thousands of children go
blind every year because of vitamin A deficiency.
Adding vitamin A to rice, which is a staple food in many areas where malnutrition is common, can be an
efficient way to address the problem. Consumption of a varied diet would, of course, be the most desirable way to
address nutrition needs. A number of vegetables, such as carrots and pumpkins, contain high amounts of vitamin A
and could address this vitamin deficiency. However, because of tradition, economic considerations, and other
issues, it is often not possible to pursue this type of solution. By introducing golden rice into areas where rice is
already consumed on a daily basis, researchers hope to provide a source of this vitamin that will become part of the
normal diet.
71. The word modify in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ………
A. moderate. B.intensify. C. adapt. D.restrict.
72. According to the passage, what is one reason scientists work to genetically modify crops?
A. to make more money for farmers
B. to produce vegetables that will look better in the supermarket
C. to develop fruits and vegetables that taste better
D. to create more variety for consumers
73. The word resistant in the first paragraph is the OPPOSITE of……….
A. susceptible B. immune. C. tolerant. D. repellent.
74. The term the latter in the first paragraph refers to
A. a scientific development. B. creating nutrient-rich crops.
C. developing disease resistance. D. golden rice.
75. At which point in the first paragraph could you best insert the following sentence: This gives the rice the golden
color from which is gets its name.
A.1 B.2 C. 3 D. 4
76. According to the passage, what is one result of a lack of vitamin A?

C. delayed maturity D. baldness

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.
Almost every language in the world has dialects and American English is no exception. At the present time
there is an interesting study which is on American speech habits. This study has shown that different words are
frequently used in different parts of the country to denote the same thing. For example, in the east, Americans use
the word "soda" to denote a soft drink. In some parts of the west, a soft drink is "tonic". Such differences are

usually a source of conversation and sometimes misunderstanding happens.
Speech and life all over the world have often changed. New words are being used when new discoveries are
made and new concepts are formed. Usage determines what is correct and what is incorrect. Fifty years ago, it was
incorrect to say "It's me." But today it is acceptable simply because most Americans say that instead of "It's I."
People change, so language changes. What is wrong today may be right tomorrow.
