Part 2. Questions 66 – 75 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each)

Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question

Sleep is a natural process, and although a lot have been written about the subject, it is still
surrounded by mystery. It is used by some as an escape from the world, and regarded by others as an
irritating waste of time: some people get by on very little, others claim they cannot exist without at
least ten hours, but nobody can do without sleep completely.

Our night’s sleep does not just consist of a steady phase of gradually deepening sleep. It
alternates between two stages: Non-dreaming or ordinary sleep, and REM (rapid eye movement) or
dreaming sleep. As soon as we fall asleep, we go straight into non-dreaming sleep for an hour or so,
then into REM sleep for about 15 minutes, then back into non-dreaming sleep. It alternates in this
way for the rest of the night, with non-dreaming sleep tending to last longer at the beginning of the
night. Non-dreaming sleep occupies three-quarters of our night’s sleep, about a quarter of it deep

and the rest fairly light.

It is widely believed that sleep repairs the body and makes good the damage caused by being
awake. However, its main function is to refresh the brain. Experts believe that probably only about
two-thirds of our sleep is necessary for repairing and refreshing the brain, with the most valuable
sleep coming in the first few hours of the non-dreaming period, the last few hours of sleep are not so
essential. The brain can manage quite well with reduced sleep as long as it is uninterrupted sleep.

</div>
(6)<div class='page_container' data-page=6>

refreshed. Similarly, people who sleep deeply do not necessarily get a better quality of sleep than
shallow sleepers. Deep sleepers can feel tired the following day, so six hours of good sleep is worth
more than eight hours of troubled sleep.

66. It can be concluded from the first paragraph that ______.

A. people need equal time of sleep B. sleep remains a puzzle

C. sleep is among the processes of the nature D. everything about sleep has been brought to light 
67. The word “irritating” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. calming B. soothing C. annoying D. comforting 
68. All the following statements are true, EXCEPT for ______.

A. our night’s sleep occurs in a straight line of only two phases

B. all sleeps are similar in the alternatives of the two stages during the night 
C. we spend only 25 percent of our night’s sleeping time dreaming

D. we often have no dreams right after we fall asleep 
69. The word “it” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.

A. our night’s sleep B. the ordinary sleep C. the REM D. the night 
70. The word “occupies” in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by ______.

A. accounts for B. takes care of C. works out D. goes up 
71. Unlike the common belief, sleep helps ______.

A. not to be awake C. us to fix the damage happening by day 
B. us to repair our body D. our brain to rest and recover

72. The study discussed in the reading passage suggests that ______. 
A. the fewer hours we sleep, the more we dream

B. deep sleep means better sleep

C. the type of sleep is more important than its length
D. six hours of sleep is better than eight hours

73. Which of the following is NOT discussed in the passage?

A. The role of the sleep. B. Sleepless people’s problems. 
C. Types of sleep. D. The circle of a sleep.

74. It can be inferred from the reading passage that ______.

A. if we can sleep uninterruptedly, it is not necessary to sleep the whole night 
B. REM makes good our brain

C. nearly 70 % of our sleep is invaluable

</div>
(7)<div class='page_container' data-page=7>

A. a doctor’s description B. a health magazine

C. an advertisement D. a fashion magazine 
Part 3: Questions 76 – 85 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each)

Read the text and fill in one word which best fits each gap.

Doctors have reported that vitamins (76) ……… substances required for the proper

functioning of the body. In this century, thirteen vitamins have been discovered. A lack of any
vitamins in a person’s body can (77) ……… diseases. In some cases, an excess of vitamins can

also lead to illness. For (78) ………, sailors in the past were prone to suffer from scurvy that is

a disease resulting from the lack of vitamin C. It causes bleeding of the gum, loss of teeth and skin
rashes. Sailors suffer (79) ……… scurvy because they did not eat (80) ……… and

vegetables. Fruits and vegetables contain vitamin C which is necessary for good health.

Vitamin B complex is (81) ……… of eight different vitamins. A lack of any of these

vitamins will lead to different diseases. For instance, a person who has (82) ……… little

vitamin B1 will suffer from beriberi, a disease that causes heart problems and mental disorders. A
lack of vitamin B2 results (83) ……… eye and skin problems while deficiency of vitamin B6

causes problems of the nervous system. Too little vitamin B12 will cause anemia. The knowledge (84)

……… vitamin deficiencies caused certain diseases led doctors to cure people suffering from

these illnesses by giving them doses of the necessary vitamins. Today, vitamins are available in the
form of pills and can easily (85) ……… bought at any pharmacy.
