PART READNG COMPREHENSON (Questions 41-60)
Read the following passages and choose the most suitable answers to each of the questions given after
each passage. Mark your choice in the answer sheet.
Passage 3
Each society has its own beliefs attitudes, customs behaviors, and social habits. These give people a sense
of who they are, how they are supposed to behave, and what they
shold or should not do.
People become conscious of such rules, when they meet people from different cultures. For example, the
rules about when to eat vary from culture to culture. Many North Americans and Europeans organize their
timetables around three mealtimes a day. n other countries, on the other hand, it is not the custom to have
strict rules like this -people eat when they want to, and every family has its own timetable. When people visit
or live in a country for the first time, they are often surprised at the differences that exist between their own
culture and the culture in the other country. For some people, traveling abroad is the thing they enjoy most in
life; for others, though, culture differences make them feel uncomfortable, frightened, or even insecure. This
is know as "culture shock".
When you're visiting a foreign country, it is important to understand and appreciate cultural differences. This
can help people avoid misunderstanding, develop friendships more easily, and feel more comfortable when
travelling or living abroad.

visitors across the Channel from Europe. On arriving in England, they were taken to The Crystal Palace by

Passage 5
The relationship of economics to history is rather different from that of the other social sciences. Curious as
it may sound, this relationship in many respects comes close to that between history and literature.
Economics, after all, is the science (in the broad meaning of the term) of something which men actually do.
Even if the science did not exist, men would still make economic decisions, economic predictions, and
participate in various forms of economic organization which, in part, it is the economist's function to
describe. Similarly, the disciplined study of literature is concerned with something with men would also do
anyway even if the disciplined study did not exist: compose poems, act out dramas, write novels and read
them. Political science, or the discipline of politics, has, it is true, many similarities to economics, particularly
where it is concerned with generalization about political structures.

Passage 6
Despite the fact that too much fat can be harmful, a moderate fat intake is actually essential to the
maintenance of good health. Some of the symptoms of fat deficiency include flaking skin' emaciation.
reduced functioning of the immune system, and fertility problems. Recent studies have linked, fat-free diets
to increase stress and aggression, and note that those who try to eliminate fat completely from their food
intake may be at risk for developing eating disorders: a small amount of fat in a meal will produce a feeling
of satiety which lasts much longer than the sensation of fullness produced by protein or carbohydrates.
At least two teaspoons of fat per day is needed in order for the digestive system to absorb vitamins A, D, E
and K, which are fat soluble. These vitamins are essential for healthy hair, skin, teeth and eyes. Without the
ability to absorb these vitamins, children run the risk of developmental and neurological disorders. Adults
need these vitamins to manufacture fertility hormones.
Some types of fat actually help to reduce harmful cholesterol levels. Polyunsaturated fats such as corn,
soybean and sesame oil, and monounsaturated fats like chicken fat and olive oil, seem to lower blood
cholesterol, while saturated fats - those found in red meat dairy products and tropical oils - seem to raise the
level of the kind of cholesterol which accumulates as plague on arterial walls. Paying attention to the type of
fat consumed is just as important as reducing total fat intake.
51. What did the paragraph preceding this passage most likely discuss?
A. methods of reducing one's percentage of dietary fat B. moderate fat intake C. health problems linked to
fat consumption D. general health guidelines
52. According to this passage, the most harmful type of fat would be found in
A steak and cheese B. fish,and vegetables
