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. One question that is being debated these days is whether or not genetic engineering is a good thing. We hear this term “genetic engineering” with increasing frequency. For those readers who may not be sure of its meaning, some definitions follow. When we speak of genes, we are referring to chemical substances in the cells of all living things that establish an organism’s characteristics. Genetic engineering is the changing of certain genes, usually to improve an organism in some way. In recent years, for example, certain genes have been placed in tomato plants to make tomatoes taste better and keep them fresh in supermarkets for a longer time. Cows have been treated with a growth hormone that makes dairy cattle give more milk and reduces the amount of fat in the meat of beef cattle. These sound like positive things, don’t they? After all, many people say, the technology exists to improve our lives. But there are plenty of people around who oppose genetic engineering. Why? Two specific objections come to mind. One is that the balance of nature might be upset. Suppose, for example, that scientists are able to genetically engineer certain plants so that insects will not eat them. This will protect the plants, but the insects will be deprived of a food supply — and other animals that depend on those insects for food will lose their food supply, too. The other objection is a moral question. Is it acceptable or right for us to change the makeup of living things? Supporters of genetic engineering say the benefits outweigh the dangers. Look at all the improvements that can be made in plants raised for food, they say. Because of genetic engineering, plants that produce more fruits and vegetables and resist disease can be grown. In a world where more and more food will be needed in the future, this is a benefit. The medical advances provided by genetic engineering, say the supporters, are even more impressive. Consider cancer, for example. If genetic engineering can provide a way to cure or prevent this disease, shouldn’t it be used? And if genetic engineering can be used to kill the virus that causes AIDS, shouldn’t it be permitted? Opponents of genetic engineering say it should be stopped, or at least limited. Proponents of genetic engineering say it should be promoted and expanded. The debate goes on. Question 1: What is TRUE about genetic engineering, according to paragraph 1? A. It increases people’s age. B. It changes genes’ parameters. C. It reduces the number of cells. D. It improves fat in the meat. Question 2: Genetic engineering is said to be aimed at ______.

It has more advantages than weak points. B. It will mean breakthrough in medicine. C. It will help to achieve record harvest. D. It can be controlled and stopped any moment. Question 7: All of the following statements are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _______.

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. Aspirin’s origins go back at least as early as 1758. In that year, Englishman Edward Stone noticed a distinctive bitter flavor in the bark of the willow tree. To Stone, this particular bark seemed to have much in common with “Peruvian Bark”, which had been used medicinally since the 1640s to bring down fevers and to treat malaria. Stone decided to test the effectiveness of the willow bark. He obtained some, pulverized it into tiny pieces, and conducted experiments on its properties. His tests demonstrated that this pulverized willow bark was effective both in reducing high temperatures and in relieving aches and pains. In 1763, Stone presented his findings to the British Royal Society. Several decades later, further studies on the medicinal value of the willow bark were being conducted by two Italian scientists. These chemists, Brugnatelli and Fontana, determined that the active chemical that was responsible for the medicinal characteristics in the willow bark was the chemical salicin, which is the active ingredient of today’s aspirin. The name “aspirin” is the trade name of the drug based on the chemical salicin, properly known as acetylsalicylic acid. The trade name “aspirin” was invented for the drug in the 1890s by the Bayer Drug Company in Germany. The first bottles of aspirin actually went on sale to the public just prior to the turn of the century, in 1899. Question 9: According to the passage, aspirin originated_________. A. definitely sometime in 1758 B. sometime after 1758 C. no earlier than 1978 D. no later than 1758 Question 10: The pronoun “it” in the first passage refers to _________. A. malaria B. the British Royal Society C. effectiveness D. willow bark Question 11: The word “properties” in the first paragraph could best be replaced by_________.

It was in strips of bark. C. it was a rough powder. D. It was in large chunks. Question 13: The Italian chemists mentioned in the passage most probably conducted their studies on willow bark. A. in the 1760s B. in the 1750s C. in the 1770s D. in the 1780s Question 14: What is true about Brugnatelli and Fontana? A. They were medical doctors. B. They conducted studies on the willow bark. C.
