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 36 to 42.
The history of clinical nutrition, or the study of the relationship between health and how the body takes in
and utilizes food substances, can be divided into four distinct eras: the first began in the nineteenth century
and extended into the early twentieth century when it was recognized for the first time that food contained
constituents that were essential for human function and that different foods provided different amounts of
these essential agents. Near the end of this era, research studies demonstrated that rapid weight loss was
associated with nitrogen imbalance and could only be rectified by providing adequate dietary protein
associated with certain foods.
The second era was initiated in the early decades of the twentieth century and might be called "the
vitamin period. ”Vitamins came to be recognized in foods, and deficiency syndromes were described. As

vitamins became recognized as essential food constituents necessary for health, it became tempting to
suggest that every disease and condition for which there had been no previous effective treatment might be
responsive to vitamin therapy. At that point in time, medical schools started to become more interested in
having their curricula integrate nutritional concepts into the basic sciences. Much of the focus of this education
was on the recognition of deficiency symptoms. Herein lay the beginning of what ultimately turned from
ignorance to denial of the value of nutritional therapies in medicine. Reckless claims were made for effects of
vitamins that went far beyond what could actually be achieved from the use of them.
In the third era of nutritional history in the early 1950's to mid-1960's, vitamin therapy began to fall into
disrepute. Concomitant with this, nutrition education in medical schools also became less popular. It was just a
decade before this that many drug companies had found their vitamin sales skyrocketing and were quick to
supply practicing physicians with generous samples of vitamins and literature extolling the virtue of
supplementation for a variety of health-related conditions. Expectations as to the success of vitamins in
disease control were exaggerated. As is known in retrospect, vitamin and mineral therapies are much less
effective when applied to health-crisis conditions than when applied to long-term problems of under nutrition
that lead to chronic health problems.
Question 36: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The effects of vitamins on the human body.
B. The history of food preferences from the nineteenth century to the present.
C. The stages of development of clinical nutrition as a field of study
D. Nutritional practices of the nineteenth century
Question 37: It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following discoveries was made during
the first era in the history of nutrition?
A. Protein was recognized as an essential component of diet.
B. Vitamins were synthesized from foods.
C. Effective techniques of weight loss were determined.
D. Certain foods were found to be harmful to good health.
Question 38: The word “tempting” is closest in meaning to ________.
A. necessary
B. attractive
C. realistic

D. correct
Question 39: It can be inferred from the passage that medical schools began to teach concepts of nutrition in
order to __________.
A. convince medical doctors to participate in research studies on nutrition.
B. encourage medical doctors to apply concepts of nutrition in the treatment of disease.
C. convince doctors to conduct experimental vitamin therapies on their patients.
D. support the creation of artificial vitamins.
Question 40: The word “them” in the second paragraph refers to _______.
A. therapies
B. claims
C. effects
D. vitamins
Question 41: Why did vitamin therapy begin losing favor in the 1950's?
A. The public lost interest in vitamins
B. Medical schools stopped teaching nutritional concepts
C. Nutritional research was of poor quality
D. Claims for the effectiveness of vitamin therapy were seen to be exaggerated.
Question 42: The word "skyrocketing" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A. internationally popular
B. increasing rapidly

C. acceptable
D. surprising
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.
This rapid transcontinental settlement and these new urban industrial circumstances of the last half of
the 19th century were accompanied by the development of a national literature of great abundance and
variety. New themes, new forms, new subjects, new regions, new authors, new audiences all emerged in the
literature of this half century.
As a result, at the onset of World War I, the spirit and substance of American literature had evolved
remarkably, just as its center of production had shifted from Boston to New York in the late 1880s and the
sources of its energy to Chicago and the Midwest. No longer was it produced, at least in its popular forms, in
the main by solemn, typically moralistic men from New England and the Old South; no longer were polite, welldressed, grammatically correct, middle-class young people the only central characters in its narratives; no
longer were these narratives to be set in exotic places and remote times; no longer, indeed, were fiction,
poetry, drama, and formal history the chief acceptable forms of literary expression; no longer, finally, was
literature read primarily by young, middle class women.
In sum, American literature in these years fulfilled in considerable measure the condition Walt
Whitman called for in 1867 in describing Leaves of Grass: it treats, he said of his own major work, each state
and region as peers "and expands from them, and includes the world ... connecting an American citizen with
the citizens of all nations." At the same time, these years saw the emergence of what has been designated
"the literature of argument," powerful works in sociology, philosophy, psychology, many of them impelled by
the spirit of exposure and reform. Just as America learned to play a role in this half century as an autonomous
international political, economic, and military power, so did its literature establish itself as a producer of major
works.
Question 43: The word “it” in second paragraph refers to ________.
A. American literature
B. the energy
C. the population
D. the manufacing

Question 44: The word “exotic” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.

Question 45: The phrase “these years” in the third paragraph refers to ___________.
A. the present
B. the 1900s
C. the early 1800s

C. It introduced new American themes, characters, and settings
D. It spoke to the issue of reform and change
Question 47: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that the previous passage probably discussed
________.
A. the limitations of American literature to this time
B. the importance of tradition to writers
C. new developments in industrialization and population shifts
D. the fashions and values of 19th century America
