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 from 28 to 34.

Foot-racing is a popular activity in the United States. It is seen not only as a competitive sport but also  as  a  way  to  exercise,  to  enjoy  the camaraderie  of  like-minded  people,  and  to  donate  money  to  a good  cause.  Though  serious  runners  may  spend  months  training  to  compete,  other  runners  and  walkers might not train at all. Those not competing to win might run in an effort to beat their own time or simply to enjoy the fun and exercise. People of all ages, from those of less than one year (who may be pushed in strollers)  to  those  in  their  eighties,  enter  into  this  sport.  The  races  are  held  on  city  streets,  on  college campuses, through parks, and in suburban areas, and they are commonly 5 to 10 kilometers in length.
The  largest  footrace  in  the  world  is  the  12-kilometer  Bay  to  Breakers  race  that  is  held  in  San Francisco every spring. This race begins on the east side of the city near San Francisco Bay and ends on the west side at the Pacific Ocean. There may be 80,000 or more people running in this race through the streets and hills of San Francisco. In the front are the serious runners who compete to win and who might finish  in  as  little  as  34  minutes.  Behind  them  are  the  thousands  who  take  several  hours  to  finish.  In  the back of the race are those who dress in costumes and come just for fun. One year there was a group of men who dressed like Elvis Presley, and another group consisted of firefighters who were tied together in a  long  line  and  who  were  carrying  a  fire-hose.  There  was  even  a  bridal  party,  in  which  the  bride  was dressed  in  a  long  white  gown  and  the  groom  wore  a  tuxedo.  The  bride  and  groom  threw  flowers  to bystanders, and they were actually married at some point along the route.
