Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer a, b, c, or d.
As a result of years of research, we know that too much animal fat is bad for our health. For example, Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small amount of grains, fruit, and vegetables. Because of their diet, they have high rates of cancer and heart disease; In Japan, in contrast, people eat large amounts of grains and very little meat. The Japanese also have very low rates of cancer and heart disease. In fact, the Japanese live longer than anyone else in the world. Unfortunately, when Japanese people move to the United States, the rates of heart disease and cancer increase as their diet changes. Moreover, as hamburgers, ice cream, and other high-fat foods become popular in Japan, the rates of heart disease and cancer are increasing there as well. People are also eating more meat and dairy products in other countries such as Cuba, Mauritius, and Hungary. Not surprisingly, the disease rates in these countries are increasing along with the change in diet. Consequently, doctors everywhere advise people to eat more grains, fruit, and vegetables and to eat less meat and fewer dairy products.
Where does the word ‘there’ in line 11 refer to?
A. in the United States
B. in Cuba
C. in Japan
D. in Cuba, Mauritius, and Hungary

Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer a, b, c or d.
When drawing human figures, children often make the head too large for the rest of the body. A recent study offers some insights into this common disproportion in children’s illustrations. As part of the study, researchers asked children between 4 and 7 years old to make several drawings of men. When they drew front views of male figures, the size of the heads was markedly enlarged. However, when the children drew rear views of men, the size of the heads was not so exaggerated. The researchers suggested that children drew bigger heads when they know they must leave room for facial details. Therefore, the odd head size in children’s illustrations is a form of planning ahead and not an indication of a poor sense of scale.
Which of the following is true?
A. Children under the age of 7 do not generally have a good sense of scale.
B. With training, young children can be taught to avoid disproportion in their art.
C. Children enlarge the size of the head because they think that it is the most important part of the body.
D. Children plan ahead when they are drawing pictures.

Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer a, b, c, or d.
Hundreds of thousands of persons each year fall prey to some type of cancer, but new methods of radiation therapy have enabled doctors to save more lives than ever before. Medical researchers have developed several experimental forms of this time-honored cancer treatment that seem effective in fighting the disease.
One promising approach involves exposing cancer cells to radiation by implanting a radioactive source directly into the malignant tissue. This process greatly increases the dosage and thus the effectiveness of the treatment. Another technique uses drugs to make cancer cells more susceptible to the effects of radiation and to make normal cells more resistant. Certain hugs are able to neutralize the genetic framework of cancer cells, thus making them easily affected by radiation. Both techniques have seen some positive results in the treatment of inoperable brain tumors.
These and other methods have helped to raise the recovery rate for cancer victims from 30 percent 40 years ago to around 50 percent today. This is encouraging news for those who fall prey to one of the world’s leading killers.
It can be inferred from the passage that________ .
A. improvements in cancer treatment have been ineffective
B. fewer people are susceptible to the effects of cancer
C. the number of deaths caused by cancer has decreased
D. scientists are close to eliminating cancer entirely

Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer a, b, c, or d.
Hurricanes are violent storms that cause millions of dollars in property damage and take many lives. They can be extremely dangerous, and too often people underestimate their fury.
Hurricanes normally originate as a small area of thunderstorms over the Atlantic Ocean west of Cape Verde Island during August or September. For several days, the area of the storm increases and the air pressure falls slowly. A center of low-pressure forms, and winds begin to whirl around it. It is blown westward, increasing in size and strength.
Hurricanes hunters then fly out of the storm in order to determine its size and intensity and to trace its direction. They drop radiosondes, or instruments for recording temperature, air pressure, and humidity, into the storm. They also look at the size of waves on the ocean, the clouds, and the eye of the storm. The eye is a region of relative calm and clear skies in the center of the hurricane. People often lose their lives by leaving shelter when the eye has arrived, only to be caught in tremendous winds again when the eye has passed.
Indications that a hurricane is forming are___________ .
A. increased power of the storm and decreased air pressure
B. increased size of the storm and decreased air pressure
C. decreased size of the storm and increased air pressure
D. decreased strength of the storm and decreased air pressure
