answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35.

Many people believe the glare from snow causes snow-blindness. Yet, dark glasses or not, they find
themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snowblindness, when exposed to several
hours of "snow light".
The United States Army has now determined that the glare from snow does not cause snow-blindness in
troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a man's eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad
expanse of a snow-covered area. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire
landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching
and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature balances this annoyance by producing more
and more liquid which covers the eyeballs. The liquid covers the eyeballs in increasing quantity until vision
blurs. And the result is total, even though temporary, snow-blindness.
Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts ahead of a main body of
troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely
snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on
which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes
focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching through the snow-blanketed landscape.
By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly
snow-blind or lost: In this way the problem of crossing a solid white area is overcome.
Question 31: A suitable title for this passage would be ______.
A. Soldiers Marching in the Snow B. Snow-blindness and How to Overcome It
C. Nature's Cure for Snow-blindness D. Snow Vision and Its Effect on Eyesight
Question 32: According to the paragraph 1, people can suffer from all of the following EXCEPT ______.
A. headaches B. snow-blindness C. eye muscles ache D. watering eyes
Question 33: The word "they" in paragraph 3 refers to______ .
A. bushes B. main troops C. scouts D. experiments
Question 34: The eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache because ______.
A. there is nothing to focus on B. the eyes are annoyed by blinding snow
C. tears cover the eyeballs D. the eyes are annoyed by blinding sunlight
Question 35: The word "sore" in paragraph 2 mostly means______.
A. hot B. bitter C. open D. painful
