3
____________ drinking, washing and industrial processes.

II. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
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 diseases. One egg yolk,
in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This
knowledge has driven 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 egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked.
They have the advantage of having low 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-flat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil,
flax, and rice bran. In spite of their diet, 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 result. 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 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 41: What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary at increases the blood cholesterol level
B. To make people know about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten
D. To convince people to eat ‘designer’ eggs and egg substitutes.            
Question 42: According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart diseases?
A. minerals        B. cholesterol      C. canola oil           D. vitamins
Question 43: What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. increasing price   B. decreased production
C. dietary changes in hens    D. concerns about cholesterol
Question 44: What is meant by the phrase ‘mixed result’?
A. The result are blended  B. The result are a composite of things
C. The result are inconclusive                   D. The result are mingled together
Question 45: According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol?
A. reducing egg intake but not fat intake     B. increasing egg intake and fat intake
4
C. decreasing egg intake and fat intake        D. increasing egg intake but not fat intake
Question 46 Which of the following could best replace the word ‘somewhat’?
A. in fact        B. a little      C. indefinitely          D. a lot
Question 47: According to the passage, egg substitutes cannot be used to make any of the
following types of eggs EXCEPT_________.?
A. boiled        B. poached      C. scrambled           D. fried

II. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

More than 200 reindeer have died of starvation on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, with
scientists blaming their deaths on climate change. The wild deer carcasses were found on the Arctic
islands this summer by researchers from the Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI), which said it had
never logged so many deaths at once in 40 years of monitoring the animals’ population level. “It’s
scary to find so many dead animals,” project leader Ashild Onvik Pedersen told state broadcaster
NRK. “This is an example of how climate change affects nature. It is just sad.”
Svalbard’s capital Longyearbyen, the northernmost town on earth, is thought to be warming quicker
than any other settlement on the planet, climate scientists warned earlier this year. The milder
temperatures in the region led to unusually heavy rainfall in December, leaving a thick layer of ice
when the precipitation froze. This meant the reindeer could not dig through the hardened tundra to
reach the vegetation they graze on in their usual pastures, the NPI said. Svalbard’s reindeer have
been observed eating seaweed and kelp when food is scarce, but these are less nutritious and cause
them stomach problems.
A relatively high number of calves born last year increased the death toll, as the youngest and
weakest are often the first to die in harsh conditions. “Some of the mortality is natural because there
were so many calves last year. But the large number we see now is due to heavy rain, which is due
to global warming,” said Ms Onvik Pedersen.
A team of three scientists spent 10 weeks investigating population of the Svalbard reindeer earlier
this year. Researchers warned the decline of reindeer would cause unwanted plant species, currently
kept in check by the animals’ grazing, to spread across Arctic ecosystems in Europe, Asia and North
America.
Arctic reindeer and caribou populations have declined 56 per cent in the last two decades, a report
by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said last year. The report said food
security was partly to blame for falling herd numbers, while warmer summers could also put the
animals at greater risk of diseases spread by flies and parasites. The average temperature in
Longyearbyen has risen by 3.7C since 1900, more than three times the global average increase of
about 1C. In 2016, the entrance to the town’s “Doomsday” seed vault – which stores specimens of
almost all the world’s seeds – was flooded following heavy rainfall.
(Adapted from https://www.independent.co.uk/)

B. People in Longyearbyen suffered unusually heavy rain at the end of the year.
C. It is the northernmost town on our planet.
D. The reindeer here couldn’t stand the low temperature when the precipitation froze.
44. The word “scarce” in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by __________.
A. inappropriate B. insufficient C. abundant D. unlimited
45. What does the word “these” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. seaweed and kelp B. Svalbard’s reindeer

One of the biggest issues that eco lodges and green hotels face is the lack of a universal definition.
How eco-friendly does a lodge or boutique hotel need to be to qualify? And who determines which
accommodations will pass muster?
Unfortunately, some of the world's most well-known and respected "green" certification programs
are cost-prohibitive for many eco lodges, which are often relatively small and owned and operated
by independent entrepreneurs rather than corporations.
But there are numerous reputable certification programs that responsible travelers can look for
before they book an eco lodge or hotel stay. Many - including Green Seal in the U.S. - are part of
the Global Ecolabelling Network, a non-profit group comprised of 25 third - party organizations
throughout the world. They are all devoted to improving, promoting and developing labelling

II. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate

Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct
or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles
in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will
become extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have
been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested
in material gain but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is
contributing to the problem of extinction. Animals, such as Bengal tiger, as well as other
endangered species, are valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these
animals must be enacted to ensure their survival and the survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries,
in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves.
They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often
must also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in
equipment and patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction
is an international boycott of products made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but
by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed.
41. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. the Bengal tiger B. international boycott
C. endangered species D. problems with industrialization
42. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the world “alarming” in the first paragraph?

45. Which of the following could best replace the word “allocated” in the second paragraph?
A. set aside B. combined C. organized D. taken off
46. What does the term “international boycott” in the second paragraph refer to?
A. buying and selling of animal products overseas

Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Water pollution is one of the biggest threats to the environment today. There are several sources of
water pollution ranging from sewage and fertilizers to soil erosion. The impact of water pollution on
wildlife and their natural habitats can be immense. There are also a number of things that the
average person can do to help stop water pollution.
We should conserve the soil because soil conservation influences water pollution through erosion.
As soil is eroded by water, it transfers sediment from the land to the body of water, which is
polluted by the chemicals in the sediment. Phosphorus and industrial chemicals can be pulled into
water through soil erosion. When phosphorus levels in water become too high, they can lead to
algae blooms that can cause massive fish deaths and make water unsafe for human use. The best
way to prevent soil erosion is to keep the banks of rivers well-covered with plants or trees. Planting
trees can have a significantly positive impact on the reduction in soil erosion.
The oil used to lubricate engines in all types of machines needs to be changed regularly. When the
oil is changed, it presents a number of environmental hazards if not disposed of properly. When a
leaky engine releases this oil into the street, it runs to the sewer and makes its way into waterways.
Wherever you see a lot of human recreation, you will almost always see lots of evidence of human
use. Wrappers, bottles and other trash are unfortunately a common site at many well-used beaches
and rivers around the world. It should be fairly obvious that the trash from these places often ends
up in waterways and can cause pollution. Plastics are an especially big issue when it comes to water
contamination at beaches and waterways. Picking up litter wherever you find it is honestly the best,
fastest way to do your part to stop this type of water pollution.
Organize cleaning parties with local people to make the reach larger. Get businesses involved as
sponsors who will donate prizes to the person who collects the most trash if you're having a hard
time finding people to sign up to help.
It is estimated that the consumption of plastic by humans is between 250 and 300 million tons a
year. About 80% of the plastic in the oceans came from the land. Using alternatives to plastics or
using “less disposable” plastics whenever possible can have a surprising impact on ocean pollution.
The fact that plastic is cheap and useful for different purposes makes it obvious choices for many
people.
