Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 26 to 33.
Lighthouses are towers with strong lights that help mariners know their position, inform them that
land is near, and warn them of dangerous rocks and reefs. They are placed at prominent points on the
coast and on islands, reefs, and sandbars.
Every lighthouse has a distinctive pattern of light known as its characteristic. There are five basic
characteristics: fixed, flashing, occulting, group flashing, and group occulting. A fixed signal is a steady
beam. A flashing signal has periods of darkness longer than periods of light, while an occulting signal’s
Page 2/5 - Code132


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí
periods of light are longer. A group-flashing light gives off two or more flashes at regular intervals, and a
group-occulting signal consists of a fixed light with two or more periods of darkness at regular intervals.
Some lighthouses use lights of different colors as well, and today, most lighthouses are also equipped
with radio beacons. The three type of apparatus used to produce the signals are the catoptric, in which
metal is used to reflect the light; the dioptric, in which glass is used; and the catadioptric, in which both
glass and metal are used.
In the daytime, lighthouses can usually be identified by their structure alone. The most typical
structure is a tower tapering at the top, but some, such as the Bastion Lighthouse on the Saint Lawrence
River, are shaped like pyramids, and others, such as the Race Rock Light, look like wooden houses sitting
on high platforms. Still others, such as the American Shoal Lighthouse off the Florida Coast, are skeletal
towers of steel. Where lighthouses might be confused in daylight, they can be distinguished by day-maker
patterns-designs of checks and stripes painted in vivid colors on lighthouse walls.
In the past, the job of lighthouse keeper was lonely and difficult, if somewhat romantic. Lighthouse

keepers put in hours of tedious work maintaining the lights. Today, lighthouses are almost entirely
automated with humans supplying only occasional maintenance. Because of improvements in
navigational technology, the importance of lighthouses has diminished. There only about 340 functioning
lighthouses in existence in the United States today, compared to about 1,500 in 1900, and there are only
about 1,400 functioning lighthouses outside the United States. Some decommission lighthouses have been
preserved as historical monuments.

Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 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 disease. This knowledge has
caused 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 substitute eggs are not
really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having
lower cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One disadvantage, however, is that
they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. 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-fat diets
consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of their diets, 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.
Egg 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 it is not the type of egg that is the main determinant of cholesterol
but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived from
food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain 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 44: What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To convince people to eat "designer" eggs and egg substitutes
B. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten
C. To introduce the idea that dietary fat increases the blood cholesterol level
D. To inform people about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol
Question 45: The word "plummet" is closest in meaning to
.
A. rise gently
B. drop abruptly
C. bounce uncertainly

D. hesitate expectantly

Question 46: According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart disease?
A. Minerals
B. Vitamins
C. Cholesterol
D. Canola oil
Question 47: According to the passage, what has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. Dietary changes in hens
B. Increasingprice
C. Concerns about cholesterol
D. Decreased production
Question 48: The word “they” in paragraph 1 refers to
.
A. regular eggs
B. substitute eggs
C. producers of the eggs D. cholesterol rates
Question 49: According to the passage, substitute eggs cannot be used to make any of the following
types of eggs EXCEPT

eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Egg 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 it is not the type of egg that is the main determinant of cholesterol
but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived from
food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain 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.
