IX. Read the following passage and answer the following questions from 71 to 75 by choosing one
answer A, B, C or D only.
Canning is a method of preserving food over extended periods of time. The process involves sealing
food in containers and heating it in order to kill bacteria that could eventually cause spoilage. White most
canned food is produced by commercial companies, some is done at home. Homegrown fruits and
vegetables such as apples and tomatoes are the most popular foods to can. Even certain kinds of meats are
suitable for canning. However, it is not advisable to heat products such as avocados because of the changes
in taste and texture that occur. Other foods, including cucumbers and peppers, can be canned only if they are
first pickled and then cooked at very low temperatures. Properly canned food can be saved for as long as three years. If
not properly sealed, the food can be sponed by the growth of organisms. In severe case, bacteria can cause a
fatal form of poisoning called “botulism”. For this reason, it is very important to check the seal of the jar or
bottle regularly to make sure it has remained undisturbed.
71. According to the passage, what is needed to kill bacteria that spoil food?
A. An airtight seal B. Heat
C. A commercial company D. Homegrown produce
72. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT suitable for canning?
A. Apples B. Tomatoes C. Cucumbers D. Avocados
73. In line 7, the phrase “as long as” can best be replaced by which of the following?
A. up to B. a minimum of C. exactly D. while
74. It can be inferred from the passage that bacteria………………….
A. is rarely harmful B. develops very slowly
C. is one type of organism D. is a result of canning foods
75. According to the passage, botulism can be avoided by…………………..
A. disturbing the container from time to time
B. properly sealing a jar or bottle
C. rehearing the canned food
D. promoting the growth of beneficial organisms
