TRAFFIC IN OUR CITIES
The volume of traffic in many cities in the world today continues to expand.

_________ as “road pricing”, is already being introduced in a number of cities,
using a special electronic card (62) ______ to windscreen of the car.
Another way of dealing with the problem is to provide cheap parking on the
(63) _______ of the city, and strictly control the number of vehicles allowed in to
the centre. Drivers and their passengers then use a special bus service for the
(64) _______ stage of their journey.
Of course, the most important thing is to provide good public transport.

65. A. taken B. kept C. given D. stood
Part 2. Questions 66 – 75 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each)
Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question
Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-
quality protein, eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the
major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than
two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has caused
egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the
development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to
eat substitute eggs. These egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look
somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having
low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One
disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling.
A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called
'designer' eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets
consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of their
diets, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of
cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating
their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite
scientific studies to back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship
between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed results. It
may be that it is not the type of egg that is the main determinant of cholesterol
but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to
cholesterol derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that
certain dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol.
Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one's intake of eggs, even
designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will
probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level.
66. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary fat increases the blood cholesterol level.
B. To inform people about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol.
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten
6
 D. To convince people to eat 'designer' eggs and egg substitutes.
67. According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart
diseases?
A. minerals B. cholesterol C. canola oil D. vitamins
68. Which of the following could best replace the word 'somewhat'?
A. in fact B. a little C. indefinitely D. a lot
69. What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. increasing price B. decreased production
C. dietary changes in hens D. concerns about cholesterol
70. According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of
the suggested daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol?
A. 3/4 B. 2/3 C. 1/2 D. 1/3
71. The word 'portrayed' could best be replaced by which of the following?
A. studied B. destroyed C. tested D. described
72. What is the meaning of 'back up'?
A. reverse B. advance C. block D. support
73. What is meant by the phrase 'mixed results'?
A. The results are blended. B. The results are a composite of things.
C. The results are inconclusive. D. The results are mingled together.
74. According to the passage, egg substitutes cannot be used to make any of
following types of eggs EXCEPT?
A. boiled B. poached C. scrambled D. fried
75. According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood
cholesterol?
A. reducing egg intake but not fat intake B. increasing egg intake and fat
intake
C. decreasing egg intake and fat intake D. increasing egg intake but not fat
intake
