III. READING
A. Read the passage carefully and then choose the best answer.
Test 1:
When you go to a restaurant, you often think that the food you are ordering is good for you.
But many restaurants serve healthy food, like fish or salad, with a sauce or dressing that uses a lot of
oil, fat, or sugar.
Some food agencies want all restaurants to say in their menus exactly what is in each dish,
how many calories, how much fat, and what addictives. They think that restaurants don’t give their
customers enough information, and that this new plan could help people have a healthier diet.
But chefs are not happy with this idea. One top chef said, “People are not stupid. They know
that many sauces have butter and cream in them. But if we put on a menu that a dish has 1,000
calories, nobody is going to order it!”
However, many doctors agree with the plan. Bruce Ward, Professor of Medicine, said,
“People know that cigarettes are bad for them, because it tells you on the pack. But when they go to
a restaurant, they often have no idea if the food is healthy or not. Food products that have a lot of
calories, fat, and sugar need a health warning, exactly like cigarettes.”

Test 2:
When pilots first started to fly above the clouds many years ago, the sunlight was too strong
that they could not see anything, and even some of them got sick. So in 1920’s a young pilot asked
The Bausch and Lomb Company to help. B&L made green-coloured glass that stopped some of the
sunlight. Put into glasses, these immediately became standard dark glasses for pilots. The company
called them Ray-Bans, and pilots everywhere wear them. In 1937, Bausch and Lomb developed a
glass that didn’t break easily. This glass also reduced the sun glare as well as its light. The new
glasses were so good that the US Air Force gave B&L a contract. After that every pilot and crew

Test 3:
Foreign trade, the exchange of goods between nations, takes place for many reasons. The first
is that no nations have all of the commodities that they need. Raw materials are scattered around the
world. Large deposits of copper are mined in Peru and Zaire, diamonds are mined in South Africa,
16
and petroleum is discovered in the Middle East. Countries that do not have these resources within
their own boundaries must buy from countries that export them. Foreign trade also occurs because a
country does not often have enough of a particular item to meet its needs. Although the United
States is a major producer of sugar, it consumes more than it can produce internally and thus must
import sugar.

revolution, it was soon realized that production would double if coal was used instead of wood.

function if there were no coal. In the last twenty or thirty years, however, the use of coal has
declined. As a result, there have been changes in the coal industry. It is believed that more people
