<b>I. Read the passage and choose the best answer</b>


Many people are unaware of how many of the products we use every day come from petroleum and natural gas. In
the United States each family of four uses more than two tons of petroleum products annually. That's almost 1200 lbs of
chemicals each year for every man, woman and child in the United States - a staggering total of 225 billion pounds of
chemicals from petroleum, and to a lesser extent, natural gas.


Of the vast amount of petroleum and natural gas we consume, more than 90 percent is burned as fuels. Only about
5.5 percent is used for the manufacture of petrochemicals by the chemical industry. These petrochemicals vary widely in
their functions and includes such products as drugs, detergents, rubbers, paints, fertilizers, dyes, perfumes, explosives,
food preservatives, artificial sweeteners, and agricultural chemicals. Finally, about 1.5 percent of the oil and natural gas is
used as raw material for plastics. This small percentage translates into the production of billions of pounds of polymers
that <b>yield</b> many different and useful products.


In post- World War II years, the United States was <b>flooded</b> with domestic and imported items of extremely low cost,
low quality, and limited lifetime. <b>This</b> led to the image of "cheap plastics" with low durability. Today, however, the image
of plastics has changed. Plastics perform an extremely broad range of functions, from heart valves and artificial kidneys to
ski boots, nonstick surfaces, supper glues, and spacecraft parts, and they compete with natural products in durability. No
other materials expect plastics could perform all these different functions.


Plastics are replacing more and more parts of your car. The use of 1 lb of plastic can replace an average of 3.5 lb of
metal in an automobile. An automobile with 400 lb of plastic substituted for metal will weigh about 1000lb less, which
increases its gas mileage by about 3 mi/gal. The fuel savings are estimated to be about 160 million barrels of oil annually.
That's more than the total amount used by the chemical industry as raw materials to make the polymers. As another
example, synthetic polymer fibers are commonly used in fabrics, for both economical and practical reasons. If the world's
synthetic fibers were replaced by cotton, this would require an additional 40 million acres of farmland.



Certainly the use of polymer plastics will increase. One can expect to find more applications in home construction
and furniture because of the unlimited design freedom of plastics. Plastics will be used more in drink containers and food
packaging. The 700 billion gallons of liquids consumed each year in the United States will find their way to the consumer
more and more in plastic bottles. Diseased of malfunctioning parts of the body will be replaced by specialized plastic
components to a greater degree. We are indeed becoming a plastic society.

however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching or boiling. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of
eggs, sometimes called "designer" eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of
ingredients such as canola oil, flaw 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 products has been <b>portrayed</b> unfairly. They cite scientific studies to <b>back up</b> their
claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationships between eggs and human cholesterol level have brought <b>mixed results</b>. It
may be that it is not the type of eggs 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 is 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.


<b> 44.</b> According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol?


<b>A.</b> reducing egg intake but not fat intake <b>B.</b> increasing egg intake but no fat intake


<b>C.</b> decreasing egg intake and fat intake <b>D.</b> increasing egg intake and fat intake
<b> 45.</b> As used in line 5, which of the following could be best replaced the word <b>"somewhat"</b>?


<b>A.</b> a little <b>B.</b> a lot <b>C.</b> in fact <b>D.</b> indefinitely


<b> 46.</b> The word <b>"portrayed"</b> in line 12 could be best replaced by which of the following?


<b>A.</b> studied <b>B.</b> described <b>C.</b> destroyed <b>D.</b> tested
<b> 47.</b> As used in line 12, what is the meaning of the phrase "<b>back up</b>"?


<b>A.</b> block <b>B.</b> support <b>C.</b> reserve <b>D.</b> advance


<b> 48.</b> What does the author mean by the phrase <b>"mixed results"</b> in line 13?


<b>A.</b> The results are blended <b>B.</b> The results are a composite of things
<b>C.</b> The results are mingled together <b>D.</b> The results are inconclusive


<b> 49.</b> According to the passage, what has been the cause for changes in the sales of eggs?
<b>A.</b> concerns about cholesterol <b>B.</b> increasing price


<b>C.</b> decreased production <b>D.</b> dietary changes in hens
<b> 50.</b> According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart disease?


<b>A.</b> vitamins <b>B.</b> minerals <b>C.</b> cholesterol <b>D.</b> canola oil
<b> 51.</b> What is the main purpose of this passage?


<b>A.</b> to inform people about the relation between eggs and cholesterol
<b>B.</b> to introduce the idea that dietary fat increase the blood cholesterol level
<b>C.</b> to persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten
<b>D.</b> to convince people to eat "designer" eggs and egg substitutes



<b> 52.</b> Which lines of the passage best explain why egg producers have introduced egg substitutes?
<b>A.</b> line 25-29 <b>B.</b> line 1-4 <b>C.</b> line 8-10 <b>D.</b> line 14-16


<b> 53.</b> According to the passage, one egg yolk contains approximately what fraction of suggested daily limit for human
consumption of cholesterol?


<b>A.</b> 2/3 <b>B.</b> 3/4 <b>C.</b> 1/3 <b>D.</b> 1/2

<b>VI.Read the passage and choose the best answer</b>


Although they are 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. One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds
of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has caused egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn
has brought about the development of several of alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute
eggs. These eggs substitutes are not really eggs, but they look <b>somewhat</b> 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
eggs, sometimes called "designer" eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of
ingredients such as canola oil, flaw 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 products has been <b>portrayed</b> unfairly. They cite scientific studies to <b>back up</b> their
claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationships between eggs and human cholesterol level have brought <b>mixed results</b>. It
may be that it is not the type of eggs 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 is 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.


<b> 58.</b> As used in line 12, what is the meaning of the phrase "<b>back up</b>"?


<b>A.</b> reserve <b>B.</b> advance <b>C.</b> block <b>D.</b> support



<b> 59.</b> As used in line 5, which of the following could be best replaced the word "<b>somewhat</b>"?

<b>A.</b> studied <b>B.</b> tested <b>C.</b> described <b>D.</b> destroyed

<b>VII. Read the passage and choose the best answer</b>


Many people are unaware of how many of the products we use every day come from petroleum and natural gas. In
the United States each family of four uses more than two tons of petroleum products annually. That's almost 1200 lbs of
chemicals each year for every man, woman and child in the United States - a staggering total of 225 billion pounds of
chemicals from petroleum, and to a lesser extent, natural gas.


Of the vast amount of petroleum and natural gas we consume, more than 90 percent is burned as fuels. Only about
5.5 percent is used for the manufacture of petrochemicals by the chemical industry. These petrochemicals vary widely in
their functions and includes such products as drugs, detergents, rubbers, paints, fertilizers, dyes, perfumes, explosives,
food preservatives, artificial sweeteners, and agricultural chemicals. Finally, about 1.5 percent of the oil and natural gas is
used as raw material for plastics. This small percentage translates into the production of billions of pounds of polymers
that <b>yield</b> many different and useful products.


In post- World War II years, the United States was <b>flooded</b> with domestic and imported items of extremely low cost,
low quality, and limited lifetime. <b>This</b> led to the image of "cheap plastics" with low durability. Today, however, the image
of plastics has changed. Plastics perform an extremely broad range of functions, from heart valves and artificial kidneys to
ski boots, nonstick surfaces, supper glues, and spacecraft parts, and they compete with natural products in durability. No
other materials expect plastics could perform all these different functions.


Plastics are replacing more and more parts of your car. The use of 1 lb of plastic can replace an average of 3.5 lb of
metal in an automobile. An automobile with 400 lb of plastic substituted for metal will weigh about 1000lb less, which
increases its gas mileage by about 3 mi/gal. The fuel savings are estimated to be about 160 million barrels of oil annually.
That's more than the total amount used by the chemical industry as raw materials to make the polymers. As another
example, synthetic polymer fibers are commonly used in fabrics, for both economical and practical reasons. If the world's
synthetic fibers were replaced by cotton, this would require an additional 40 million acres of farmland.



Certainly the use of polymer plastics will increase. One can expect to find more applications in home construction
and furniture because of the unlimited design freedom of plastics. Plastics will be used more in drink containers and food
packaging. The 700 billion gallons of liquids consumed each year in the United States will find their way to the consumer
more and more in plastic bottles. Diseased of malfunctioning parts of the body will be replaced by specialized plastic
components to a greater degree. We are indeed becoming a plastic society.
