Choose the best words to complete the passage<br />
Since man has discovered ways of treating illnesses and diseases, and has thus reduced the ___23___, the<br />
only way to control population growth is by lowering the number of children being born. In fact as people<br />
in modern industrial societies began to ___24___ in the towns and factories, they found that a smaller<br />
family was easier to feed. Therefore, in Western Europe after the Industrial Revolution, the birth-rate did<br />
slow down as parents chose to have fewer children. More importantly, modern birth control measures<br />
have made it possible for parents to decide how many children to have.<br />
But reducing the birth-rate is not as easy as that. There are many religious, social economic reasons why<br />
some parents do not want to control the __25____of children they have. For example, in some of the less<br />
developed parts of the world, many children are needed to help work the land or earn wages that<br />
supplement the family income. To halt the population growth in such areas, it will first be necessary to<br />
___26___ the standards of living, so that parents do not need a large family.<br />

Read the passage and answer the questions below<br />
Ancient cultures and religions had many practices that were supposed to test a person’s courage and faith.<br />
The idea was that the person would try a dangerous or seemingly impossible act, and if their faith was<br />
strong enough, they would be able to do it. One such practice is fire walking. In fire walking, a person<br />
walks across a bed of hot coals, without burning their feet or injuring themselves in any way!<br />
Fire walking is an ancient and widespread ceremony. No one knows exactly when or where fire walking<br />
started, but the earliest written record of fire walking came from almost 4000 years ago in India, which<br />
still has a strong tradition of fire walking. That, however, is no guarantee that the practice started there.<br />
Fire walking has been recorded in almost every culture, from the Native Americans to the Japanese.<br />

<br />
Ancient cultures believed that the ability of fire-walking came from a person’s faith and spiritual purity.<br />
Today, however, fire walking can easily be explained by science and the way heat travels from one object<br />
to another. The first thing to know about fire walkers is that they do not actually walk across fire. They<br />
walk across coals. Coals are what remain of a log after it has burned. While coals are very hot, they put out<br />
their heat very slowly. In addition, the coals that fire-walkers walk over are covered with a layer of ash.<br />
Heat does not travel through ash very easily. As a result of these two facts, a fire walker may walk across<br />
the coals with no injury. As long as the fire walker does not stand in one place for too long, the heat cannot<br />
travel quickly enough through the coals and the ash to burn his or her feet.<br />
27. According to the passage, which of the following statements is CORRECT?<br />
A. Fire walking can only be observed in a few places.<br />
B. Fire walking is a tradition that is 4000 years old.<br />
C. We don’t know when people started fire walking.<br />
D. Ancient cultures considered fire walking easy and natural.<br />
28. According to the passage, which of the following statements is INCORRECT?<br />
A. It is an ancient ceremony.<br />
B. It has been practiced worldwide.<br />
C. It originated in India.<br />
D. It can be explained through science.<br />
29. Ancient cultures used fire walking to __________________.<br />
A. purify themselves spiritually.<br />
B. test the strength of their religious beliefs.<br />
C. test their ideas about science.<br />
D. cure their injuries and diseases.<br />
30. Why is it important for the fire walkers not to stand in one place?<br />
A. Because the coals will become hotter over time.<br />
B. Because the heat will have time to move through the ash and coals.<br />
C. Because the fire walkers may begin to lose his or her faith.<br />
D. Because the fire will eventually go out.<br />
