DIRECTIONS
In this section, you will read a number of passages. Each one is followed by approximately ten questions about it. For
questions 1-50, choose the one best answer, (A), (B), (C), or (D), to each question. Then, find the number of the
question on your answer sheet, and fill in the space that corresponds to the letter of the on the basis of what is stated
or implied in that passage.

Questions I through 11 are based on the following passage.

(Line 1) The food we eat seems to have profound effects on your health. Although science has made enormous steps
in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that
perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and fourty percent of cancer is related to the diet as
well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because
of the characteristic foods they consume.

(Line 8) That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. in 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates
and nitrites (commonly used to preserve colors in meats) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these
carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the
packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.

(Line 13) The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and
because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to
animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in
order to obtain a higher price on the market. Athough the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to
control these procedures, the practices continue.

(Line 20) A healthy dies is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest.
Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food
without our knowledge.

burial rituals included preparing the burial site, preparing foar all the deceased's material needs (food, clothing,
jewels, and tools of their trade), and preserving the corpse so that it would not decay. This preservation was
accomplished through a process of mummification. The ancients left no written accounts as to the execution of this
process, so scientists have had to examine mummies and establish their own theories. The embalming process might
have taken up to seventy days for the pharaohs and nobility and only a few days for the poor.

(Line 10)The embalmers spread a variety of compounds of salt, spices and resins in and over the corpse to preserve
it. They followed this with preserved wrapping, a procedure in which they wound strips of five linen around, over and
under the body while placing various amulets within the wrappings to protect the deceased from harm on the long

breaks off and is eliminated through the host's excretory system. These embryos hatch, develop into larvae, and grow
to adults only if ingested by an intermediate host.
