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.
Organic food is very popular these days. It can also be very expensive. Some organic food costs twice as
much as non-organic food. Parents of young children, and even some pet owners, will pay high prices for
organic food if they think it's healthier.
There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not
use agricultural chemicals such as pesticides that stop insects from damaging crops. Some people think
organic also means "locally grown", and originally this was true. But over time organic farming has
become big business, with many organic foods now being grown by large agricultural companies that sell
their products far from where they're grown. Processed food made with organic ingredients has also
become more popular.
So, is organic food safer and more nutritious? Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They think
agricultural chemicals can cause serious illnesses like cancer. Also, recent studies have shown that eating
organically-grown produce reduces your chances of developing heart disease. However, many doctors also
believe we should reduce the amount of sugar in our diets. They recommend carefully checking the list of
ingredients on processed food and drinks for all the words that really mean sugar, like glucose, sucrose and
fructose. This means processed foods that are called "organic" can also be very unhealthy if they contain
lots of sugar.
Whether organic food is healthier or not is still not clear, so more research is needed. However, consumers
of organic food often say "better safe than sorry" when it comes to what we eat.
Question 11: Why have processed foods made with organic ingredients become more popular?
A. Because they are sold far from where they’re grown.
B. Because they are more nutrious.
C. Because they are at lower prices.
D. Because they are grown in large quantities.
Question 12: Why do people still choose organic food when it is unclear whether it is healthy or not?
A. Because doctors advise them to use organic food in stead of non-organic food.
B. Because they think they it’s better to be careful than take risks when choosing food.
C. Because they believe that organic food are harmful to their health.
D. Because they think locally grown food is better than processed food.
Question 13: The word “they” which is underlined in the third paragraph refers to:
A. famers B. organic food
C. consumers D. farmers and consumers
Question 14: According to the passage, what is NOT TRUE about “ organic food”?
A. It’s healthier than non-organic food.
B. It’s locally grown.
C. It doesn’t contain chemicals like pestiside.
