Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow Circle A, B, C or D to indicate your answers

Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs also contain

a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit This knowledge has caused egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs One alternative is to eat substitute eggs These egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked They have the advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking One disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying,

poaching, or boiling A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called 'designer' eggs These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran In spite of their diets, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans

Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly They cite scientific studies to back up their claim And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed results It may be that it is not the type of egg that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one's intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level

Question 32- What is the main purpose of the passage?

A To inform people about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol

B To convince people to eat 'designer' eggs and egg substitutes

C To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten

D To introduce the idea that dietary fat increases the blood cholesterol level

Question 33- According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart diseases?

A minerals B cholesterol C vitamins D canola oil

Question 34- Which of the following could best replace the word 'somewhat' in the passage?

A indefinitely B in fact C a little D a lot

Question 35- According to the passage, what has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?

A dietary changes in hens B decreased production

C increasing price D concerns about cholesterol

Question 36- According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested daily

limit for human consumption of cholesterol?

Question 37- The word 'portrayed' in the passage could best be replaced by which of the following?

A described B studied C destroyed D tested

Question 38- What is the meaning of the phrase 'back up' in the passage?

A reverse B advance C support D block

Question 39- What is meant by the phrase 'mixed results' in the passage?

A The results are blended B The results are inconclusive

C The results are a composite of things D The results are mingled together

Question 40- According to the passage, egg substitutes cannot be used to make any of following types of eggs

except?

A scrambled B fried C poached D boiled

Question 41- According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol?

A reducing egg intake but not fat intake

C increasing egg intake but not fat intake

D decreasing egg intake and fat intake

Hot weather makes your heart pump harder, and if you‟re not very fit,

you start to understand why the majority of mountain rescue statistics are

made up from summer walkers suffering heart attacks Heart exhaustion is

quite easy to get when you‟re making a great physical effort It happens

where your body can‟t produce enough sweat to keep you cool

The answer is to keep up your water intake It‟s a good idea to drink a

pint of water for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit every 24 hours So, if the

temperature is in the 70s, and you are doing a five-hour walk, you‟ll need a

minimum of around one a half pints of water It‟s vital that you don‟t wait until you develop a raging thirst before you stop for a drink - keep taking regular swigs from your water bottle

Many walkers flavour their water with fruit juice, which makes it a lot more palatable You could even use one of the isotonic drinks made for athletes, which replace the body‟s salts lost through sweating Powders such

as Dioralyte, which you may have in the house as a treatment for diarrhea, will do the job just as well, as its main aim is also effective rehydration

Given that evaporation is your body‟s cooling mechanism, you can help things along with an external application of water Soaking your hat with water is a great way to cool the head, though if the sun is beating down, it will probably dry off almost immediately Better still then if you can plunge into a river or the sea fully-clothed And if that‟s not possible, then at least take off your boots and socks and paddle in a cool stream

Walking in the heat increases the rate at which your feet swell, which can lead to them feeling tight in your boots Cool water from a stream reduces any swelling and helps general foot comfort At the same time, you can check out your feet or signs of blisters Extra sweating makes the skin softer and increases the chance of blisters forming, in the same way as when water leaks into your boots and gets to your feet

As for what clothing you wear, this should be lightweight and reasonably loose-fitting Tight clothing will feel uncomfortable and may even lead to the formation of an irritating rash known as „prickly heat‟ on your skin The answer, if this does develop, is to try and stay cool as much as possible Do this by either keeping in the shade, or washing the affected area with cold water, but without soap But prevention is by far the best approach, so keep your clothing light

It‟s understandable to want to remove any extraneous clothing when it‟s extremely hot, but it doesn‟t really make much sense to take off T-shirts The sun‟s rays can be quite strong, and shoulders are always very sensitive

to sunburn This is the worst place to be red and sore when you are wearing

a heavy rucksack on your back Wearing shorts can also create problems for walkers, as the backs of the legs can catch the sun very easily

In fact, those days when an apparently harmless breeze is blowing can be the most deceptive It might not feel so hot, so you probably won‟t notice the damage being done so soon As on every other day then, a good strong sun cream should therefore be applied to any skin which is exposed Make the most of the summer, but treat the sun with the respect it deserves
