FAST FOOD FACTS
There are more than 300,000 fast food restaurants in the US. Why is fast food so popular? Because it’s
convenient, predictable, and fast. Fast food has become a part of the busy American lifestyle. But, nutrition experts
point out, fast food is often high in calories, sodium, fat and cholesterol. This does not mean fast food is bad. But it
does mean you should fit fast food into a balanced, healthy diet. On the average, to maintain desirable weight, men
need about 2,700 calories per day and women need about 2,000 calories per day. It is not well understood why some
people can eat much more than others and still maintain a desirable weight. However, one thing is certain - to lose
weight, you must take in fewer calories than you burn. This means that you must either choose foods with fewer
calories, or you must increase your physical activity, preferably both. Most Americans get more than 40 percent of
their daily calories from fat. The American Heart Association recommends limiting fat to less than 50-80 grams per
day. Fast food meals can be high in calories, fat, sodium, and cholesterol.
Lately, fast-food chains have noticed that consumers are more health-conscious, and as a result, many
chains are adding healthier choices to their menus.
Question 37: What are fast food meals high in?
A. Water, fat and calories. B. All are correct.
C. Fat and cholesterol D. Salt, fat and cholesterol.
Question 38: If you want to lose weight, what should you do?
A. Take in fewer calories than you spend.
B. It is not important what you eat, providing you eat less.
C. Eat food which contains less fat and consequently fewer calories.
D. Eat food which contains more fat and more calories.
Question 39: Is it possible to eat well in a fast food restaurant?
A. Yes, but only if you choose low in fat and calories meals.
B. Yes, but you shouldn’t eat in a fast food restaurant everyday.
C. Yes, if the menus have more choices.
D. No, all fast food meals contain too much fat and cholesterol.
Question 40: Some people eat much more than others, but still don’t put on weight, Why?
A. They need more calories than others.
B. They do not eat fast food meals.
C. We don’t really know it.
D. They burn more calories than others.

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 from 45 to 50.
THE SCIENCE OF AVIATION
Captain John Paul Stapp, already a medical doctor, began his scientific career in the 1940s studying the
negative effects of high-altitude flight, issues absolutely critical to the future of aviation. How could men
survive these conditions? The problem of the bends, the deadly formation of bubbles in the bloodstream, proved
the toughest, but after 65 hours in the air, Stapp found an answer. If a pilot breathed pure oxygen for 30 minutes
prior to take-off, symptoms could be avoided entirely. This was an enormous breakthrough. The sky now truly
was the limit. The discovery pushed Stapp to the forefront of the Aero Med Lab and he abandoned his plans to
become a pediatrician, instead deciding to dedicate his life to research. The Lab's mandate, to study medical and
safety issues in aviation, was a perfect match for his talents. It was the premiere facility in the world for the new
science of biomechanics.
Stapp was assigned the Lab's most important research project: human deceleration. This was the study
of the human body's ability to withstand G forces, the force of gravity, when bailing out of an aircraft. In April
1947, Stapp travelled to Los Angeles to view the 'human decelerator', a rocket sled designed to run along a
special track and then come to a halt with the aid of 45 sets of normal hydraulic brakes, which slowed it from
150 miles per hour to half of that speed in one fifth of a second. When it did, G forces would be produced
equivalent to those experienced in an airplane crash. The sled was called the 'Gee Whiz'. Built out of welded
tubes, it was designed to withstand 100 Gs of force, way beyond the 18 Gs that accepted theory of the time
thought survivable. Early tests were conducted using a dummy, but Stapp soon insisted that conditions were
right to use himself as a human guinea pig.
Exercising a modicum of caution on the first ride in December 1947, Stapp used only one rocket. The
Gee Whiz barely reached 90 miles an hour, and the deceleration was only about 10 Gs. So Stapp began to
increase the number of rockets, and by August 1948, he had completed 16 runs, surviving not just 18 Gs but a
bone-jarring 35 Gs.

Battered though he was by the tests, Stapp was reluctant to allow anyone else to ride the Gee Whiz. He
feared that if certain people, especially test pilots, were used, their hotheadedness might produce a disaster.
Volunteers made some runs, but whenever a new approach was developed, Stapp was his own one and only
choice as test subject. There was one obvious benefit: Stapp could write extremely accurate physiological and
psychological reports concerning the effects of his experiments.
Yet while the Gee Whiz allowed Stapp to answer the existing deceleration questions, new ones emerged.
What could be done to help pilots ejecting from supersonic aircraft to survive? Stapp set out to find the answer
on a new sled called Sonic Wind No. 1, which could travel at 750 miles per hour, and withstand an astonishing
th
150 Gs. In January 1954, Stapp embarked on a series of runs leading to his 29 and final ride, which took him
to above the speed of sound, protected only by a helmet and visor. And when the sled stopped, in a mere 1.4
seconds, Stapp was subjected to more Gs than anyone had ever willingly endured. He wasn't just proving that
people could survive a high-speed ejection, he was establishing the parameters of human survivability to G
force: new biological boundaries were being set.
That successful run on 10 December 1954 provided Colonel Stapp with an opportunity he had longed for
- to promote the cause of automobile safety. Stapp had long realised that his research was just as applicable to
cars as it was to airplanes. At every opportunity, Stapp urged the car industry to examine his crash data, and to
design their cars with safety in mind. He lobbied hard for the installation of seat belts and improvements such as
collapsing steering wheels.
'I'm leading a crusade for the prevention of needless deaths,' he told Time magazine in 1955. Stapp's
work in aeronautics and automobiles continued right up until his death in 1999 at age 89. He had received
numerous awards and honours. But the best was the knowledge that his work had helped to save many lives, not
just in aviation, but on highways around the world.
Question 45: What does the writer mean when he says 'The sky now truly was the limit' (line 5)?
A. All previous restrictions on flight had been removed.
B. Stapp had set an unbeatable scientific record.
C. A new design was needed for high-altitude planes.
D. Pilots could now be trained to fly at greater altitude.
Question 46: What assessment of Stapp's skills does the writer make in the first paragraph?
A. He was a better scientist than his contemporaries.
B. He was ideally suited to employment at Aero Med Lab.
C. He was able to solve scientific problems at great speed.
D. He was able to prove a theory set out by others.
Question 47: Why did Stapp usually insist on doing test runs on Gee Whiz himself?
A. He thought it was unethical to recruit people for a dangerous task.
B. He felt his powers of observation were superior to those of other people.
C. He had little faith in the overall safety of the equipment.
D. He was aware that some people were psychologically unsuited to the tests.
Question 48: What was the significance of the experiments on Sonic Wind No. 1?
A. They proved that most people would survive high speeds.
B. They gradually improved deceleration times.

C. a wish to be remembered after his death. D. a quest for expertise.
