READING

FOR QUESTIONS 36 TO 40, READ THE
PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS
THAT FOLLOW.
Despite all the research, everyone of
us catches cold and most of us catch it
frequently. Our failure to control one of
the commonest of all ailments sometimes
seems ridiculous. Medical science regularly
practises transplant surgery and has rid
whole country of killing diseases, such
as typhus and plague. But the problem of
common cold is unusually difficult and yet
to be solved.
It is known that a cold is caused by viral
infection that affect the lining of the nose
and other passages leading to the lungs,

but the confusing variety of viruses make
the study and remedy very difficult. It was
shown in 1960 that many typical colds in
adults are caused by one or the other, of a
family of viruses known as rhinovirus. Yet,
there still remain many colds, for which no
virus has, as yet, been isolated.
There is also the difficulty that because
they are so much smaller than the bacteria
which cause many other infections, viruses
cannot be seen with ordinary microscopes.
Nor they can be cultivated easily in a
virologist's laboratory, since they only grow
with the living cells of animals or plants. An
important recent step forward, however, is
the development of the technique of tissue
culture in which bits of animal tissue are
enabled to go on living and to multiply
independent of the body. This has greatly
aided virus research and has led to the
discovery of a large number of viruses.
Their existence had previously been not
only unknown but not even suspected.
36. Most people suffer from __________ though
many major diseases have been controlled
or eradicated.
A. common cold
B. variety of cold affects
C. typhus
D. plague
37. Common cold is caused by a viral infection.
It affects __________.
A. the lining of the nose
B. the passages leading to the lungs
C. one’s speech
D. both A and B
38. It is difficult to study and find the remedy
of viral infection because _________.
A. they are very minute to be studied under
ordinary microscope
B. there is a confusing variety of virus
C. they grow within the living cells of animals
or plants
D. they belong to the rhinoviruses family

FOR QUESTIONS 41 TO 45, READ THE
PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS
THAT FOLLOW.
In a headache, the pain originates not
from brain but from the irritated nerves of
muscles, blood vessels and bones. These
send pain signals to the brain, which then
judges the degree of distress and relays it at
appropriate sites. The pain may sometimes
be referred to sites other than the problem
areas. This is referred pain and occurs due
to sensation overload. Thus, though most
headaches start at the base of the skull the
referred pain is felt typically behind the eyes.
Factors causing headaches are not fully
understood but it is known that a shift in
the level of body hormones and chemicals,
certain food and drinks and environmental
stress can trigger them.
If headaches trouble you often, visit the
doctor, who will take a full health history
relating to diet, lifestyle stresses, the type
of headache, triggering factors and relief
measures. The type and severity of pain and
the medications used, which provided most
relief are also to be noted in the diary. This
helps the doctor in determining the exact
cause and type of drugs to be used.
