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.
Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the
dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around
1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the
Norman invasion of 1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England
and had not extended even as far as two centuries, English began to spread around the globe as a
result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small
enclaves of English speakers became established and grew in various parts of the world. As these
communities proliferated, English gradually became the primary language of international business,
banking and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is
English. Two - thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main language
of technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers. Today there are
more than 700 million English users in the world, and over half of these are nonnative speakers,
constituting the largest number of nonnative users than any other language in the world.
1.  What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The French influence on the English Language.
B. The English history.  
C. The expansion of English as an international language.
D. The use of English for science and Technology.
2. Approximately when did English begin to be used beyond England?
A. in 1066 B. around 1350 C. before 1600 D. after 1600
3. According to the passage, all of the following contributed to the spread of English around the
world EXCEPT______.
A. the slave trade B. the Norman invasionC. missionaries D. colonization
4. The word “enclaves” in line 6 could be best replaced by which of the following.
A. communities B. organizations C. regions D. countries
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D 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 eggs 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 banking. 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.
Eggs 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 results. It may be that 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 certainly
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.
1. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary fat increases the blood cholesterol level.
B. To make people how 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.
2. 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
3. What is meant by the phrase "mixed results"?
A. The results are blended B. The results are a composite of things.
C. The results are inconclusive. D. The results are mingled together.
4. Which of the following could best replace the word "somewhat"?
A. in fact B. a little C. indefinitely D. a lot
5. According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested daily
limit for human consumption of cholesterol?
A. 3/4 B. 2/3 C. 1/2 D. 1/3
