Passage 1 Read the following passage and choose the best option to complete the blank or answer the question
Most human diets contain between 10 and 15 percent of their total calories as protein The rest of the dietary energy comes from carbohydrates, fats, and in some people, alcohol The proportion of calories from fats varies from 10 percent in poor communities to 40 percent or more in rich communities
In addition to providing energy, fats have several other functions in the body The fat-soluble vitamins,
A, D, E, and K, are dissolved in fats, as their name implies Good sources of these vitamins have high oil or fat
content, and the vitamins are stored in the body’s fatty tissues In the diet, fats cause food to remain longer in
the stomach, thus increasing the feeling of fullness for some time after a meal is eaten Fats add variety, taste, and texture to foods, which accounts for the popularity of fried foods Fatty deposits in the body have an insulating and protective value The curves of the human female body are due mostly to strategically located fat deposits
Whether a certain amount of fat in the diet is essential to human health is not definitely known When
rats are fed a fat-free diet, their growth eventually ceases, their skin becomes inflamed and scaly, and their reproductive systems are damaged Two fatty acids, linoleic and arachidonic acids, prevent these abnormalities and hence are called essential fatty acids They also are required by a number of other animals, but their roles in human beings are debatable Most nutritionists consider linoleic fatty acid an essential nutrient for humans
41 This passage probably appeared in which of the following?
42 We can infer from the passage that all of the following statements about fats are true EXCEPT
A fats provide energy for the body B economics influences the distribution of calorie intake
C poor people eat more fatty foods D alcohol is not a common source of dietary energy
43 The word “functions” in line 5 is closest in meaning to _
Trang 5A forms B needs C jobs D sources
44 The phrase “stored in” in line 7 is closest in meaning to _
A manufactured in B attached to C measured by D accumulated in
45 The author states that fats serve all of the following body functions EXCEPT to
A promote a feeling of fullness B insulate and protect the body
46 The word “essential to” in line 12 is closest in meaning to
A required for B desired for C detrimental to D beneficial to
47 According to the author of the passage, which of the following is true for rats when they are fed a fat free diet?
48 Linoleic fatty acid is mentioned in the passage as _
A an essential nutrient for humans B more useful than arachidonic acid
C preventing weight gain in rats D a nutrient found in most foods
49 The phrase “these abnormalities” refers to _
A a condition caused by fried foods B strategically located fat deposits
C curves on the human female body
D cessation of growth, bad skin, and damaged reproductive systems
50 That humans should all have some fat our diet is, according to the author, _
C only true for women D proven to be true by experiments in rats
