The advantages claimed for such foods over<br /> conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic foods - a<br /> term whose meaning varies greatly - frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious<br /> than others.<br /> The growing interest of consumers in the safety and more nutritional quality of the typical North<br /> American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping<br /> claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these<br /> claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance of written material advancing such<br /> Trang 4/7 - Mã<br /> <br /> thi 209<br /> <br /> claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claims that eating<br /> a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits<br /> to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore.<br /> Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for "no-aging" diets, new vitamins, and other<br /> wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic<br /> ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better<br /> than fumigated grains and the like.<br /> One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost<br /> more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled if they believe organic<br /> foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So<br /> there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular<br /> food and buy only expensive organic foods instead.<br /> Câu 56: The word "Advocates" is closest in meaning to which of the following?<br /> A. Merchants<br /> B. Consumers<br /> C. Proponents<br /> D.

It is accepted by most nutritionists.<br /> B. It is seldom used by consumers.<br /> C. It has no fixed meaning.<br /> D. It has been used only in recent years.<br /> Câu 60: The word "unsubstantiated" is closest in meaning to ________<br /> A. uncontested<br /> B. unverified<br /> C. unbelievable<br /> D. unpopular<br /> Câu 61: The word "maintain" is closest in meaning to _________<br /> A. monitor<br /> B. preserve<br /> C. improve<br /> D. restore<br /> Câu 62: Who does the author think should NOT buy organic foods?<br /> A.
