It isn’t difficult to imagine how increases in international commerce and in the movement of people—two defining features of globalization—might influence health
Trang 4More goods go more places today than at any (31) in history More people travel farther, more frequently, and come in contact with more people and goods, than
at any point in history
This increased movement of both goods and people increases opportunities for the spread of disease around the world And it’s not just goods and services that can travel across oceans and state borders—so can diseases like AIDS, malaria, or tuberculosis The (32) of BSE, or ―mad cow disease,‖ in several European countries is only one example of (33) trade can promote the spread of dangerous diseases Mosquitoes that carry malaria have been found aboard planes thousands of miles from their primary habitats, and (34) seafood carrying cholera bacteria have been shipped from Latin America to the United States and Europe

Leisure activity isn’t just for fun, says a University of Florida psychologist who has developed a scale that classifies hobbies and avocations based on needs they satisfy in people The scale can help people find more personal fulfillment by giving
them insight into what they really like and by helping them to find substitutes when
they can’t pursue their favorite activities
“The surprising thing is that activities you might think are very different have similar effects on people” said Howard E.A Tinsley, a UF psychology professor who developed the measurement ―Probably no one would consider acting to have the same characteristics as roller-skating or playing baseball, but men and women who act
as a hobby report feeling an intense sense of belonging to a group, much the same way others do in playing sports
And activities providing the strongest sense of competition are not sports, but card, arcade and computer games, he found
Tinsley, whose research on leisure has been published in several journals, is scheduled this spring to present some of the findings in Milwaukee at a conference of the Society for Vocational Psychology
Based on surveys with more than 3,000 people about the satisfactions they get from various hobbies, Tinsley obtained numerical scores for values such as
“challenge” and “hedonism”, and grouped some 82 leisure activities into 11 categories For example, dining out and watching movies fall into the “sensual enjoyment” category, playing soccer and attending sports clubs meetings satisfy participants’ desires for a sense of “belongingness” and coin collecting and baking fulfill their need for “creativity”
“With so many people in jobs they don’t care for, leisure is a prized aspect of people’s lives,” Tinsley said “Yet it’s not something psychologists really study Economists tell us how much money people spend skiing, but nobody explains what it
Trang 5is about skiing that is really appealing to people or how one activity relates to another, perhaps in unexpected ways.”
“Fishing, generally considered more of an outdoor or recreational activity, for
example, is a form of self-expression like quilting or stamp collecting, because it
gives people the opportunity to express themselves by doing something completely different from their daily routine,”he said
Question 36: The word "substitutes" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
Question 37: Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Both acting and roller-skating give people a feeling of being a part of a team
B.Collecting things satisfied people’s desire for making things
C.Fishing allows you to show the type of person you are
D.Researchers already know why a hobby attracts a person
Question 38: Which of the following is not mentioned as a category in Tinsley’s scale?
A hedonism B belongingness C initiative D sensual enjoyment
Question 39: Taking part in sports gives you
A the strongest desire to win B a need for creativity
C the chance to express your feelings D a sense of being part of a team
Question 40: The word "it" in the last paragraph refers to
A fishing B activity C self-expression D stamp collecting
Question 41: Which sentence best summarizes the passage?
A.Leisure activity and sport are totally different
B.A person’s personality is expressed via his hobbies
C.Leisure activities satisfy people’s particular desires
D.Sports affect a person’s personality
Question 42: The findings in the passage by Howard E.A.Tinsley are somewhat
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 43 to 50
Archaeological records - paintings, drawings and carvings of humans engaged in activities involving the use of hands - indicate that humans have been predominantly right- handed for more than 5,000 years In ancient Egyptian artwork, for example, the right hand is depicted as the dominant one in about 90 percent of the examples Fracture
or wear patterns on tools also indicate that a majority of ancient people were right-handed Cro-Magnon cave paintings some 27,000 years old commonly show outlines of human hands made by placing one hand against the cave wall and applying paint with
the other Children today make similar outlines of their hands with crayons on paper.
With few exceptions, left hands of CroMagnons are displayed on cave walls, indicating that the paintings were usually done by right-handers
Anthropological evidence pushes the record of handedness in early human ancestors back to at least 1.4 million years ago One important line of evidence comes
Trang 6from flaking patterns of stone cores used in tool making: implements flaked with a clockwise motion (indicating a right- handed toolmaker) can be distinguished from those
flaked with a counter-clockwise rotation (indicating a left-handed toolmaker).
Even scratches found on fossil human teeth offer clues Ancient humans are thought to have cut meat into strips by holding it between their teeth and slicing it with stone knives, as do the present-day Inuit Occasionally the knives slip and leave scratches
on the users' teeth Scratches made with a left-to-right stroke direction (by right-handers) are more common than scratches in the opposite direction (made by lefthanders)
Still other evidence comes from cranial morphology: scientists think that physical differences between the right and left sides of the interior of the skull indicate subtle physical differences between the two sides of the brain The variation between the hemispheres corresponds to which side of the body is used to perform specific activities Such studies, as well as studies of tool use, indicate that right- or leftsided dominance is not exclusive to modern Homo sapiens Population of Neanderthals, such as Homo erectus and Homo Habilis, seem to have been predominantly right-handed, as we are
Question 43: What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Human ancestors became predominantly right-handed when they began to use tools
B.It is difficult to interpret the significance of anthropological evidence concerning tool use
C. Humans and their ancestors have been predominantly right-handed for over a
million years
D.Human ancestors were more skilled at using both hands than modern humans
Question 44: The word "other" in the first paragraph refers to
Question 45: What does the author say about Cro-Magnon paintings of hands?
A Some are not very old B It is unusual to see such paintings
C Many were made by children D The artists were mostly right-handed
Question 46: When compared with implements "flaked with a counter-clockwise
rotation”, it can be inferred that "implements flaked with a clock-wise motion" are
A more common B larger C more sophisticated D older
Question 47: The fact that the Inuit cut meat by holding it between their teeth is
significant because
A. the relationship between handedness and scratches on fossil human teeth can be verified
B.it emphasizes the differences between contemporary humans and their ancestors
C.the scratch patterns produced by stone knives vary significantly from patterns
produced by modern knives
D.it demonstrates that ancient humans were not skilled at using tools
Question 48: Why does the author mention Homo erectus and Home Habilis in
the last paragraph?
A.To contrast them with modern humans
B.To explain when human ancestors began to make tools
C.To show that early humans were also predominantly right handed
D.To prove that the population of Neanderthals was very large
Trang 7Question 49: All of the follows are mentioned as types of evidence concerning
handedness EXCEPT
Question 50: Which of the following conclusions is suggested by the evidence from cranial
morphology?
A.Differences in the hemispheres of the brain probably came about relatively recently
B.There may be a link between handedness and differences in the brain's hemispheres
C.Left-handedness was somewhat more common among Neanderthals
D. Variation between the brain hemispheres was not evident in the skulls of Home Erectus and Home Habilis
