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 61 to 70
One of the factors contributing to the intense nature of twenty-first-century stress is our continual exposure
to media - particularly to an overabundance of news If you feel stressed out by the news, you are far from alone Yet somehow many of us seem unable to prevent ourselves from tuning in to an extreme degree The further back we go in human history, the longer news took to travel from place to place, and the less news we had of distant people and lands altogether The printing press obviously changed all that, as did every subsequent development in transportation and telecommunication
When television came along, it proliferated like a population of rabbits In 1950, there were 100,000 television sets in North American homes; one year later there were more than a million Today, it's not unusual for a home to have three or more television sets, each with cable access to perhaps over a hundred
channels News is the subject of many of those channels, and on several of them it runs 24 hours a day What's more, after the traumatic events of September 11,2001, live newscasts were paired with perennial
text crawls across the bottom of the screen - so that viewers could stay abreast of every story all the time Needless to say, the news that is reported to us is not good news, but rather disturbing images and sound bytes alluding to disaster (natural and man-made), upheaval, crime, scandal, war, and the like Compounding the problem is that when actual breaking news is scarce, most broadcasts fill in with scare stories about things that possibly might threaten our health, safety, finances, relationships, waistline, hairline, or very existence in the future This variety of story tends to treat with equal alarm a potentially lethal flu outbreak and the bogus claims of a wrinkle cream that overpromises smooth skin
Are humans meant to be able to process so much trauma - not to mention so much overblown
anticipation of potential trauma - at once? The human brain, remember, is programmed to slip into alarm
mode when danger looms Danger looms for someone, somewhere at every moment Exposing ourselves to such input without respite and without perspective cannot be anything other than a source of chronic stress
Question 61: According to the passage, which of the following has contributed to the intense nature of
twenty-first-century stress?
A Our continual exposure to the media
B The degree to which stress affects our life
C An overabundance of special news

Câu 1 đoạn 1: “ one of the factors contributing to the intense nature of twenty-first-century stress is our continual exposure to media - particularly to an overabundance of news”

Đoạn 2: “The further back we go in human history, the longer news took to travel from place to place, and the less news we had of distant people and lands altogether The printing press obviously changed all that, as did every subsequent development in transportation and telecommunication”
Question 63: The pronoun "them" in paragraph 3 refers to _

A are full of dangerous diseases such as flu
B send out live newscasts paired with text across the screen

Câu 2, 3 đoạn 5: “ Compounding the problem is that when actual breaking news is scarce, most broadcasts fill in with scare stories about things that possibly might threaten our health, safety, finances, relationships, waistline, hairline, or very existence in the future This variety of story tends to treat with equal alarm a potentially lethal flu outbreak and the bogus claims of a wrinkle cream that overpromises smooth skin.”
Question 66: As stated in the passage, a flu outbreak and the bogus claims of a wrinkle cream tend to
A involve natural and man-made disasters B be scarce breaking news
C be warmly welcomed by the public D be treated with equal alarm
Câu 3 đoạn 5: “This variety of story tends to treat with equal alarm a potentially lethal flu outbreak and the bogus claims of a wrinkle cream that overpromises smooth skin.”
Question 67: Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A Many TV channels supply the public with breaking news
B The only source of stress in our modem life is the media
C Many people are under stress caused by the media
D The news that is reported to us is not good news
Question 68: The word "slip" in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to _

obviously _
A the result of an overabundance of good news
B the result of human brain's switch to alarm mode
C a source of defects in human brain
D a source of chronic stress
Câu 4 đoạn 6: “Exposing ourselves to such input without respite and without perspective cannot be anything other than a source of chronic stress.”
Question 70: What is probably the best title for this passage?
