READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following text to answer question 1-5
Lowering births is the unambiguous object of government policy, especially in the developing countries.
Increasing populations press on the environment and its resources, take away profits from the capital
available for new investment, crowd cities with 5 people for whom jobs are not available, and cause political
turmoil. After a period of uncertainty government have become aware that national power and individual
welfare are more likely to be attained with fewer people.
Contraceptive measures are feely available in most countries and are actively promoted in many. Such
promotion has little effect when people want large families. However, when the modern ways of live have
come into play and people want small families promotion or birth control speeds the decline of the birth rate.
Typically, the better off take up family limitation first. Governmental sponsorship of birth control and
foreign aid makes contraceptives available to the poor. This apparently helps to spread the practice of family
limitation among ever wider strata of the population. Recent surveys in Colombia, Indonesia and other
places with active programs point to a more rapid decline in birthrates than had previously been though
possible.

17. In early societies, money was unknown and man relied on a simple system of exchange. Perhaps a good
hunter had more animal skins than he could use. His neighbor, a good fisherman, might have too many
fish but needed furs to protect his children from the cold. Both soon realized that their problems could be
easily solved by exchanging what they did not need, their surplus, for what they did need.
18.
19. This method of exchanging something that is not needed for something that is needed is called barter.
The word comes from the Italian "barattare" and the French "Barater" which mean "to trade" Barter was
an important means of exchange when the needs of primitive man were mostly for clothing, food, and
shelter. But the system had many problems. For example, a weaver who wanted to exchange his cloth for
a good catch of fish might not be able to find a fisherman who needed cloth. And the farmer with too
much corn might not be able to find a hunter with too many deer. When labor and services became more
specialized in growing societies, barter no longer satisfied the demands of payment. A new system of
exchange had to be found.
20. As man developed, he turned to many different things in his search for a convenient medium of
exchange, or money. One of the earliest forms of money was cattle. The richest man was the one who
owned the most livestock. His cattle were called "capitale" and from that Latin word we get our word
capital meaning wealth.

hundred years has changed a great deal of things. And oil product called kerosene has replace firewood
in the kitchen of our cities. Motor vehicles using gasoline or diesel oil have put animal drawn carriages
into museums. Steamships have lost against motor vehicles. Diesel locomotives have driven steam
locomotive off the rails. Jet planes using aviation fuel fly the skies, making remote places reachable in a
matter of hours.
That oil is oil indispensible to our everyday lives is not an exaggeration either. Yet few of us ever ask
how his important liquid is extracted from the earth and changed into finished products. in the first
place, it is not an easy matter to find an oil reserve. Exploration teams, sent by oil companies, have to go
to remote place, and sometimes have to live under harsh conditions, to explore the earth or seabed for
oil. Team members study the rocks and the soil, and if there are promising results, the next thing for the
oil company to do is to send a drilling team to location. Again this is not a simple matter.
60.
Roads for examples, have to be built first to transport the men and materials to the site. What is worse,
the first drilling does not always bring about oil. The drilling team often has to drill up to ten wells
before oils found.
The oil comes out from the well is still crude of course. It is first gathered in field storage tanks through
pipelines. From here another pipeline carries it directly to a refinery the crude oil is broken down into a
number of finished products such as gasoline (petrol) kerosen (parafin), diesel oil, and lubricant. Further
processing yields aviation fuel, fertilizers and so on.

187. Trappists are monks who are not allowed to preach or to teach. Their lives are devoted to meditation,
studying and reading.
188. In 1949, one group of Trappists fled to Hong Kong from China, leaving behind their houses and their
dairy industry. They dressed themselves as labourers and carried only a few possessions.
189. Here, the monks had to start a new life. They found it difficult to obtain food and they had nowhere
to live; but somehow they managed with the help of the community and charitable organizations. It was
not until 1995 that the Hong Kong government granted them land on Lantao island.
190. The monks are not allowed to beg for a living, so they had to work very hard on the island. They
started a dairy farm, kept about five hundred chickens and started growing their own vegetables.
191. A large part of the work of the Trappists is concerned with their dairy. The cows are fed regularly,
milked and kept healthy. The dairy, which produces about two thousand bottles of milk a day, brings the
monks their main income. The monks sell about half of the milk to a large hotel in Hong Kong, while
hospitals and schools buy the rest. The monks also earn some money by selling eggs. Sometimes, the
Trappists sell some of their cattle. The monks themselves do not eat meat, however, as they are
vegetarians.

214. Shortly before their deaths were announced, Richard Gephardt, Democrat presidential hopeful,

sense of who they are, how they should behave, and what they should or should not do. These 'rules'
reflect the 'culture' of a country.

in some cultures, being on time can mean turning up several hours late for an appointment, even for a
business meeting; in others, 3 p.m. means 3 p.m. Also, the rules about when to eat vary from culture to
culture. Many North Americans and Europeans are used to having three mealtimes a day and organizing
their timetable around them. In some countries, on the other hand, people often do not have strict rules
like this - people eat when they want to and every family has its own time table.

288. Nuclear power seems in some ways much cleaner than other sources of energy. Take oil or coal as an
example. When they are used in power stations, a great deal of smoke is produced. The smoke contains a
great deal of acid. Even if the smoke is cleaned by filters, a lot of the acid still escapes into the air. This
can be carried by clouds from power stations in England to Scandinavia. When it rains there, the acid
comes down with the rain. As a result, the fish, in lakes and trees in forests begin to die.
289. But many people are still against nuclear power. They believe that the problem is not just the danger
of an accident in the atomic power stations. Highly radioactive material is used. Radioactivity can cause
cancer and other illnesses. Only a part of the material is used. The rest - called waste - is just as
radioactive. Although it is still highly dangerous, this radioactive waste is often thrown into the sea.

457. Blueberries, cranberries, and huckleberries-like dark-skinned bunch grapes-contain resveratrol, a
potential anticancer agent. That's a new finding from preliminary data from ARS collaborative studies
with Rutgers University-New Jersey and AgCanada, Kentville, Nova Scotia. Resveratrol protects dark-
skinned bunch grapes from fungal diseases and provides health benefits to consumers, including
protection from cardiovascular disease. The compound's anticancer potential warranted its examination
in other fruits.
458. Using gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric procedures, the scientists measured the
resveratrol content of 30 whole fruit samples of blueberry, cranberry, huckleberry, and related plants
representing 5 families and 10 species of Vaccinium . fruit. They found that several samples contained
varying amounts of the compound. Analysis of extracts of the skin, juice/pulp, and seed of muscadine
grapes showed that its concentration in fruit skin was highest. Levels in the juice/pulp were much lower
than in either skin or seeds. Researchers are continuing to analyze more Vaccinium and muscadine
samples. Future research goals will include enhancing production of resveratrol in selected species.

469. The Japanese traditional house made of wood is expected to last about twenty years before having to
be repaired or rebuilt. Each year it is depreciated. .

way (genkan), the kitchen (daidokoro), the bathing room (sento) and the' toilet (benjo), the rooms in a
Japanese traditional house does not have a designated use.
471. A room can easily be a living area, a bedroom, a dining room or any combination. Large rooms are
partitioned by fusuma, sliding doors made of wood and thick paper. The paper used for fusuma is called
washi. These sliding doors can be removed whenever a larger space is needed.
472. In large traditional houses, there was one large room, or ima (living space) that could be divided as
needed. The smaller rooms like kitchen, bath and toilet were small extensions to one side. Rouka, or
wooden-floored hallways, follow the edge of the home. Windows are made of wood and shoji paper,
which is thin enough to let the light shine through.
473. Even Japanese modem houses tend to have one traditional Japanese room, called a washitsu. This
room has tatami mats on the floor as used in Japanese traditional house. Tatami are thick straw mats
covered with stitched, woven rushes. Tatami are smooth and firm enough to walk on, while making a
sleeping surface more comfortable than wood or stone.
474. The genkan is usually a step below the level of the rest of the house. When people enter the horne,
they leave their shoes in the genkan, pointed toward the door so they only need to slip them on when
they are ready to go out. Indoor slippers are often worn inside the house.
475. The kitchen in most traditional Japanese homes will contain a stove with a very small oven and
broiler and an electric refrigerator. Counter space for food preparation and a sink are also located in the
kitchen.

497. ADOPTION
498. Adoption is the process by which people take a child who was not born to them and raise him or her
as a member of their family. By law, adopted children differ from foster children. An adopted child has
all the legal rights of a member of the family that raises him or her. A foster child does not.
499. Parents place their children up for adoptions for many reasons. Some parents feel they cannot
adequately care for their off springs because of health or economic conditions. Some others, especially
unwed parent, may not want to raise a child.
500. But there are couples who cannot have children of their own. Adoption gives them opportunity to.
raise a family. They can get one from an adoption agency if they have all the requirements asked.
501. State laws prohibit adoption agencies from revealing the identity of the natural parents to the
adoptive parents. These laws also forbid agencies from disclosing the identity of the adoptive parents to
the natural parents. In some states, the law permits adopted persons who are at least 18 years old to see
their birth certificates including the natural parents' names.
502. On the contrary, many adopted people worked to change the laws. They argue that people have a
right to know their identity. They said that keeping secret their adoptions records violate their right. .
503. On the other hand, many people feel adoption records should be kept secret. If not, natural parents
might change their minds years later and take the child away from the parents who raised him or her.
504. Some experts advise that a child should know of the adoptions by the age of 6 or 7. Surveys have
shown that most adopted children develop normally.
505.

They are exercising. Some are playing football or badminton and some others are jogging. What is
jogging?
696. Jogging is a gentle running. Why is jogging so popular today? Why do people jog? People jog to
relax themselves, to keep themselves fit, or simply to enjoy themselves. Our world today is a world
where life is comfortable and easy for many city people. Fast buses, cars, or motorcycles take us to work
or to school. Lifts carry us quickly from one floor to another in large buildings. So many people get very
little exercise.
697. What do you need to start jogging? You only need a pair of running shoes, an old pair of jeans or
shorts, a sweater and a little courage. Dont be embarrassed if you meet your neighbor as you return
home, hot and tired. When you begin jogging, start by running some of the way and then walking. Don't
jog too far to begin with and jog slowly. Once you develop a regular jogging program, you will feel feet
and well, and you will be ready to start a busy day feeling fresh and awake.

710. Male Chauvinism (men belief in male superiority) extends even into the area of automobile driving,
it seems. Believing that they are far better driver than the women. Men consider women drivers
incompetent, inattentive, and even dangerous behind the wheel
711. However, statistic proves that women are, in fact, safer drivers than men. For example, insurance
rates of women are 20 percent than they are for men. Another proof is that more accidents are caused by
male drivers between the ages of 18 and 25 than by any other groups. Also the greater percentage of
accident involving deaths is caused by men. Although women are criticized for being too cautious, they
are really just being safe drivers.
712. The reason for women drivers safer driving habit can perhaps be found in the differing attitudes of
sexes toward automobiles as a convenience, like a washing. On the other hand, men regard automobile
as an extension of their egos. Using it as a weapon when they feel particularly aggressive or using it as a
status symbol.
713. In all, women are safer driver because of their attitudes. Men can learn to become safer drivers if
they adopt the attitude that an automobile is merely a convenience.

a. Men are higher than that of women
b. Men are lower than that of women
c. Men are as high as that of women
d. Women are equal to that of men
e. Women are the same as that of men
717.
718. Which of the following you dont agree with about the men drivers?
a. They are safe and careful drivers
b. They cause more accidents than women
c. They consider themselves to be competent drivers
d. They feel that using a car shows status of symbol
e. They regard automobiles as an extension of their egos
719.
720.
721.
