READING COMPREHENSION
Passage 1 for questions 161 to 165
When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an
ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them.
However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly
on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show
people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses,
which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.
Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit
themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing
steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been
exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away.
Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside.
Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago,
many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was
closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered. (https://googleweblight.com)

Passage 2 for questions 166 to 170

The standard of medicine in the United States is generally agreed to be very high. There is no
shortage of well qualified specialists, and there is a lot of individual attention. Treatment is backed up by
the latest in the way of medical technology. Doctors and hospitals do their utmost not to make mistakes,
because if they do they risk being made to pay out enormous sums in compensation.
But the American health care system has what look like insoluble problems. There are in fact two
systems side by side. One is the private system run on the basis of free competition. The other is the public
system which had to be created because such a large part of the population, including many of the elderly,
could not afford to pay for the absurdly expensive private treatment.
The public system is vast. A huge proportion - more than 10 per cent - of the United States federal
budget goes on it. Yet there are still very large numbers of Americans who are not covered even by this
service. The government tries to keep expenditure down and so sets limits to the income of people using
the system. Millions of the unemployed are another important group that is excluded.(www.lingua.org.uk)

166. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

A. The qualification of specialist doctors and hospitals
B. The standard of well- treatment
C. The latest treatment in the united states
D. The standard of medicine using in the united states
167. The word backed up in line 3 is closest in meaning to . . . .

B. Found
 C. Supported

B. satisfactory.
C. too risky.
D. too mechanized.
169. Among those Americans who cannot get proper health care are Except............
A. some people who earn too much.
B. old people.
C. people with very large incomes.
D. private patients.
170. What can patients expect with regard to treatment in the U.S.A.?
A. Frequent mistakes by doctors.
B. Very honest hospitals.
C. Personal attention.
D. Some of the most skillful nurses in the world.

Passage 3 for questions 171 to 175

The cause of tooth decay is acid, which is produced by bacteria in the mouth. The acid removes
minerals from tooth enamel, allowing tooth decay to begin; the saliva in your mouth encourages
demineralization and neutralizes the acid. The rate at which bacteria in the mouth produce acid depends on
the amount of plague on the teeth, the composition of the microbial flora, and whether the bacteria of the
plague have been “primed” by frequent exposure to sugar. To keep your teeth healthy, a regular dental
hygiene program should be followed.
Removing plague with a toothbrush and dental floss temporarily reduces the numbers of bacteria in
the mouth and thus reduces tooth decay. It also makes the surfaces of the teeth more accessible, enabling
saliva to neutralize acid and demineralize lesions. If fluoride is present in drinking water then teeth are
forming, some fluoride is incorporated into the enamel of the teeth, making them more resistant to attack
by acid. Fluoride toothpaste seems to act in another way, by promoting the demineralization of early carious
lesions.
In addition to a regular dental hygiene program, a good way to keep your teeth healthy is to reduce
your intake of sweet food. The least cavity causing way to eat sweets is to have them with meals and not
between. The number of times you eat sweets rather than the total amount determines how much harmful
acid the bacteria in your saliva produce. But the amount of sweets influences the quality of your saliva.
Avoid, if you can, sticky sweets that stay in your mouth a long time. Also try to brush and floss your teeth
after eating sugary foods. Even rinsing your mouth with water is effective. Whenever possible, eat foods with
fiber, such as raw carrot sticks, apples, celery sticks, etc., that scrape off plaque, acting as a toothbrush.
Cavities can be greatly reduced if these rules are followed when eating sweets.
171. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Food with fiber
B. Floridization and cavities
C. Good nutrition
D. Ways to keep your teeth healthy
172. What can be concluded from the passage about sweets?
A. Sweets should be eaten with care
B. All sweets should be avoided
 C. Sticky sweets are less harmful than other sweets
D. It is better to eat sweets a little at a time throughout the day
173. The word “scrape off” in line 26 is closest in meaning to …
A. Repel c. Remove
B. Rub together with d. Dissolve
174. The word “it” in line 9 refers to …..
A. Dental floss c. Removal of plaque

175. According to the passage, the value of eating foods with fiber is that ….
A. They are able to remove the plaque from your teeth
B. They are less expensive than a toothbrush
C. They contain vitamin A
D. They contain no sugar

Passage 4 for questions 176 to 180

Glaciers are large masses of ice on land that show evidence of past or present movement. They grow
by the gradual transformation of snow into glacier ice. A fresh snowfall is a fluffy mass of loosely packed
snowflakes, small delicate ice constals grown in the atmosphere. As the snow ages on the ground for weeks
or months, the crystals shrink and become more compact, and the whole mass becomes squeezed together
into a so dense form, granular snow. As new snow falls and buries the older snow, the layers of granular
snow further compact to firm, a much denser kind of snow, usually a year of more old, which has little pore
space.
Further burial and slow cementation—a process by which crystals become bound together in a
mosaic of inter grown ice crystals – finally produce solid glacial ice. In the process of recrystallization, the
growth of new crystals at the expense of old ones, the percentage of air is reduced from about 90 percent
for snowflakes to less than 20 percent for glacier ice. The whole process may take as little as a few years, but
more likely ten or twenty years or longer. The snow is usually many meters deep by the time the lower
layers’ art converted into ice.
In cold glaciers those formed in the coldest regions of the Earth, the entire mass of ice is at
temperatures below the melting point and no free water exists. In temperate glaciers, the ice is at the
melting point at every pressure level within the glacier, and free water is present as small drops or as larger
accumulations in tunnels within or beneath the ice.
Formation of a glacier is complete when ice has accumulated to a thickness (and thus weight
sufficient to make it move slowly under pressure, in much the same way that solid rock deep within the
Earth can change shape without breaking. Once that point is reached, the ice flows downhill, either as a
tongue of ice filling a valley or as tick ice cap that flows out in directions from the highest central area where
the most snow accumulates. The up down leads to the eventual melting of ice.
176. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The effect of glaciers on climate
B. Damage from glaciers
C. Glaciers formation
D. The location of glaciers
177. Which of the following will cause density within the glacier to increase?
A. Increased water and air content
B. Pressure from the weight of new snow
C. Long periods of darkness and temperature variations
D. Movement of the glacier
178. The word “converted” in line 11 is closest in meaning to ….
A. Changed c. Promoted
 B. Delayed d. Dissolved
179. The word it in line 18 refers to …...
A. Formation

A. There is more snow on lower area
