Swine influenza (also called swine flu, hog flu and pig flu) is an infection of a hostanimal by any one of several specific types of microscopic organisms called "swine influenzavirus" A swine influenza virus (SIV) is any strain of the influenza family of viruses that isusually hosted by (is endemic in) pigs As of 2009, the known SIV strains are the influenza cvirus and the subtypes of the influenza A virus known as HI N1, H1N2, H3N1, H3N2 andH2N3 Swine influenza is common in pigs in the mid-western United States (andoccasionally in other states), Mexico, Canada, South America, Europe (including the UK,Sweden and Italy) Kenya Mainland China, Taiwan Japan and other parts of eastern Asia.Transmission of swine influenza vims from pigs to humans is not common and does notalways cause human influenza, often only resulting in the production of antibodies in theblood The meat of the animal poses no risk of transmitting the virus when properly cooked.

If transmission does cause human influenza, it is called zoonotic swine flu People who workwith pigs, especially people with intense exposures, are at increased risk of catching swineflu In the mid-20th century, identification of influenza subtypes became possible Thisallows accurate diagnosis of transmission to humans Since then, fifty confirmedtransmissions have been recorded Rarely, these strains of swine flu can pass from human tohuman In humans, the symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of influenza and ofinfluenza-like illness in general namely chills fever sore throat, muscle pains severeheadache, coughing, weakness and general discomfort

The 2009 flu outbreak in humans known as "swine flu" is due to a new strain ofinfluenza A virus subtype H1N1 that contains genes closely related to swine influenza Theorigin of this new strain is unknown However, the World Organization for Animal Health(OIE) reports that this strain has not been isolated in pigs This strain can be transmitted fromhuman to human, and causes the normal symptoms of influenza

Read the following passage and mark the letter Ay By c, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

A survey is a study generally in the form of an interview or a questionnaire thatprovides information concerning how people think and act In the United States, the best-known surveys are the Gallup poll and the Harris poll As anyone who watches the newsduring campaigns presidential knows, these polls have become an important part of politicallife in the United States

North Americans are familiar with the many "person on the street" interviews on localtelevision news shows While such interviews can be highly entertaining, they are notnecessarily an accurate indication of public opinion First, they reflect the opinions of onlythose people who appear at a certain location Thus, such examples can be biased in favor ofcommuters, middle-class shoppers, or factory workers, depending on which area the newspeople select Second, television interviews tend to attract outgoing people who are willing to

appear on the air, while they frighten away others who may feel intimidated by a camera Asurvey must be based on a precise, representative sampling if it is to genuinely reflect a broadrange of the population.

In preparing to conduct a survey, sociologists must exercise great care in the wording

of questions An effective survey question must be simple and clear enough for people tounderstand it It must also be specific enough so that there are no problems in interpreting theresults Even questions that are less structured must be carefully phrased in order to elicit thetype of information desired Surveys can be indispensable sources of information, but only ifthe sampling is done properly and the questions are worded accurately

There are two main forms of surveys: the interview and the questionnaire Each of theseforms of survey research has its advantages An interview can obtain a high response ratebecause people find it more difficult to turn down a personal request for an interview than tothrow away a written questionnaire In addition, an interviewer can go beyond writtenquestions and probe for a subject's underlying feelings and reasons However, questionnaireshave the advantage of being cheaper and more consistent

C reflect political opinions D are used only on television

Question 58: The word "intimidated" in paragraph 2 means

Question 59: According to paragraph 3, two important things for an effective survey are

A Properly done samplings and carefully worded questions

B Specific questions and an interviewer's ability to measure respondents'feelings

C Simple questions and a high number of respondents

D Understandable questions and a sociologist who is able to interpret the results

Question 60: As can be inferred from the passage, sociologists can be frustrated when

A questionnaires are too difficult to read

B respondents are too eager to supplement questions with their own opinions

C respondents often do not complete and return questionnaires

D questionnaires are too expensive and difficult to distribute

Question 61: It can be inferred from the passage that

A live interviews minimize the influence of the researcher

B live interviews are easier to interpret

C live interviews are better than questionnaires
