In the early days of sea travel, seamen on long voyages lived exclusively on salted meat and biscuits Many of them died of scurvy, a disease of the blood which causes swollen gums, livid white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion
On one occasion, in 1535, an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew desperately ill The
men's lives were saved by Iroquois Indians who gave them vegetable leaves to eat Gradually it came to
be realized that scurvy was caused by some lack in the sailors' diet and Captain Cook, on his long
Trang 4voyages of discovery to Australia and New Zealand, established the fact that scurvy could be warded off
by the provision of fresh fruit for the sailors
Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious disease if certain important elements are missing These elements are called 'vitamins ' Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them, A, B, C, D, and so on Different
diseases are associated with deficiencies of particular vitamins
Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increase significantly our susceptibility to colds and influenza
The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruit and green vegetables It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say during extended periods of religious fasting, or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to make special provision to supply the missing vitamins
(Adaped from the book Practical Faster Reading – A course in reading and vocabulary for
upper-intermediate and more advanced students – by Gerald & Vivienne Mosback - page 93) Question 39 What is the passage mainly about?
A Oxygen is important to the body.
B An English ship’s crew were saved in 1535.
C Supplementing with the necessary vitamins makes sense.
D Vitamin C is necessary for a healthy body because it is the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and
vegetables
Question 40 According to paragraph 4, fresh fruit and vegetables
A increase our susceptibility to influenza B contain every kind of vitamin.
C contain more vitamin C than any other food D decrease our resistance to colds.
Question 41 Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A Even a good mixed diet, with a variety of fruit and green vegetables, requires to be supplemented with
the necessary vitamins
B Iroquois Indians saved the men's lives by giving them vegetable leaves to eat.
C Dietary deficiencies were discovered to result in scurvy, which was further established by Captain
Cook's successful attempt to counter the disease with supplies of fresh fruit
D Even an apparently harmless diet may be very unhealthy if it is not comprehensive enough

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 44 to 50
Due to the nature of our business, it's sometimes necessary that our staff work at night Night shifts can
be particularly demanding on employee wellbeing and health This can include disruption to the body
clock, fatigue, sleeping difficulties, disturbed appetite and digestion, reliance on sedatives or stimulants,
social and domestic problems and other symptoms of ill health To combat this, we do not have
employees on night shifts for extended periods This is because workers’ bodies will just have started to adapt to the new pattern
We find rotation shifts every two to three days are best for workers and weekly or fortnightly rotations are the least comfortable for workers Forward-rotating programs (moving from morning to afternoon to night shifts) are better than backward-rotating ones in terms of sleep loss and tiredness
If someone works at night, there are rules covering the hours they work Night time working hours are
usually between 11 p.m and 6 a.m – but this can be flexible and should be discussed between you and
us To qualify as night working, the night time period must be no more than 8 hours long and include the period between midnight and 5 a.m Any of our staff under 18 years are not allowed to be night workers
Trang 5We must make sure that you don't work more than an average of 8 hours in a 24-hour period By law, you
can't opt out of this working limit We must also keep records of any night workers’ working hours to
prove they aren't exceeding night working limits, and we must keep the records for at least 2 years Theserecords can be inspected by you at any time on request
Our usual limits and regulations for night workers do not apply to self-employed workers This does not include agency workers, who are treated as normal workers with us
If you agree to working at night for us, the agreement will be put in writing If you are to begin working
at night, we must perform a health assessment before you become a night worker and on a regular basis after that Usually, this is just done with a questionnaire, which was created in collaboration with
qualified health professionals If there are any health questions regarding your health and night work, we will offer you a follow-up examination by a health professional if you still wish to work nights
Adapted from IELTS 5 practice Tests – General Set 3
- Tests No 11-15 (High Scorer’s Choise) – page 109) Question 44 Which of the following could best serve as the topic of the passage?
A Night shifts have great impacts on workers’ wellbeing and health
B Notes for Employees Considering Night Time Working
C What should we do when going on business?
D Rules for Considering Time Working.
Question 45 The word “they” in paragraph 3 refers to _
A the hours B someone works at night C rules D Night time working hours Question 46 The word “sedatives” in the paragraph 1 is closet in meaning to _
A tranquillisers B drug addictions C tiredness D weariness
Question 47 In paragraph 6, who were consulted when creating the health assessment questionnaire?
C lead assessors D qualified health professionals
Question 48 The word “opt out of” in paragraph 4 is closet in meaning to _
A reject B pay a visit C choose not to join D work overtime
Question 49 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A The company must retain records relating to night workers’ hours for leastwise 2 years.
B Under existing regulations, night time working hours are required to be from 11 p.m to 6 a.m.
C The maximum length of a night shift at the company is 24 hours.
D Backward-rotating shift schedules are best for minimising employees’ fatigue.
Question 50 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A Night working can be available at any time on workers’ request.
B It is reasonable for us to work on a night shift in order that we can get extra income.
C We should take part in many programs in which we can work on night shifts for a long time.
