Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of thequestions.
Isn’t it amazing how much time we spend talking about food?, “Have you ever eaten......?”, “What did you have for lunch?” and so on. And yet when you travel from one country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal, and that what other people eat is strange or silly.
In most part of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a large amount of beer, and the French drink wine every day.
The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. Newzelanders eat sheep meat, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don’t like eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy raw fish.
So it seems that although eating is a topic that we can talk about for hours, there is little common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always been eating, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.

When we look across a field, how do we know that one distant object is bigger than another or that one object is behind another, not in front of it? In other words, how do we see things in three dimensions, in proper relation to each other, instead of seeing every thing “ flat ”? The answer is that when we see things we see things in the light of experience. Our minds and memories help us to interpret what we see. For instance, experience gives us an idea about the size of things. A man on a boat some distance from the shore looks much smaller than a man on the beach. But you don’t think that one is very large man and the other a very small man. What you say to yourself is that one man is nearby and the other is far away.

Nowadays more and more people are changing the way they use their televisions..Some years ago we used to turn on Tv and watch whatever there was.But now we choose the programs we watch much more carefully because we have many other interesting things to do.One result of this change is that we are also becoming more careful about the actual television set itself. As we watch fewer programs, we want to be sure that we will have a really good picture, with bright color and clear sound. Because it will be switched off most of the time, we also want the television to look good when we are not watching it. So when we buy or rent we look at the outside to make sure it is attractive and will look right with other furniture.Of course we have to pay more for high quality.However it seems that the number of people who are content to do is increasing and this should have a good result because in the end all television will have better quality

Plans grow(46)in almost every part of the world. We see(47)such plants as flowers, glass, and tree nearly every day. Plants grow high on moutaintops, far in the oceans, and in many deserts and(48)polar regions
Without plants, there could be not life on earth. Man could not live without air of food and so he could not live without plants. The oxygen in the air we breathe comes from plants. The food we eat also comes from plants or from animals that eat plants. We build houses and make many(49)useful products from lumber cut from trees. (50) Much of our clothing is made from the fitbers of the cotton plants.
Scientists belive there are more than 350,000 species of plants, but no one knowns for(51)sure. Some of the smallest plants, called diatoms, can be seen only with a(52)microscope . A drop of the water may hould as many as 500 diatoms. The largest living things are the giant sequoia trees of California. Some of them stand more than 290 feet high and measure over 30 feet wide
Scientist(53)divide all living things into two main groups - plants and animals. It is usually easy to tell the two(54)apart . Almost all kinds of plants stay in one place, but nearly all species of animals move about under their own power. Most plants make their own food from air, sunglight, and water. Animals cannot make their own food. The basic units of all life, called cells, are also different in plants and animals. Most plants have thick wall that(55) contain a material called cellulost. Animal cells dl not have this material.

All five senses are important to us, but the two most important senses are likely the sense of sight and the sense of hearing. Blind and deaf people must find life difficult because they are unable to do things that the rest of us can do naturally. People who lose their sense of taste can not enjoy food as well as they used to, whilst men who have no sense of smell can not realize, for example , when gas is leaking or food has gone out. In addition to our physical senses, which is a great help in life to have sense of humour, especially when things go wrong, and to have common sense, something which can not be learned from books

From the point of view of recycling, paper has two advantages over minerals and 0- (n) oil. In that firstly it comes from a resource which is 1- (adj) sustainable and secondly it is less threatening to our environment when we throw it away because it is 2- (adj) biodegradable. Although Australia’s record in the re-use of waste paper is good, it is still necessary to use a combination of recycled fibre and 3- (n) virgin fibre to make new paper. The paper industry has contributed positively and people have also been encouraged by 4- (n) government to collect their waste on a regular basis. One major difficulty is the removal of ink from used paper but 5- (n) advances are being made in this area. However, we need to learn to accept paper which is generally of a lower 6- (n) quality than before and to sort our waste paper by removing 7- (n) contaminants before discarding it for collection.
