The following text is for questions 24 to 27.
CHICAGO. People with breathing problems that disrupt their sleep were less tired after three weeks of treatment with a breathing device compared to those treated with a placebo, US researches said on Saturday.
The findings show that regular use of treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) masks reduce fatigue caused by obstructive sleep apnea, a chronic disorder that affects 12 million Americans.
Sleep apnea raises the risk of high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, irregular heartbeat and diabetes.
It occurs when soft tissue in the back of the throat collapses during sleep, blocking the airway and causing the brain to rouse the sleeper, who gasps for air – a cycle that can occur as many as 30 times in an hour.
CPAP disrupts this cycle by providing a steady stream of air through a mask that keeps the airway open during sleep
Companies that make CPAP treatments include Graymark Healthcare and ResMed Inc.
This results are important as they highlight that patients who comply with CPAP therapy can find relief from fatigue and experience increases in energy and vigor after a relatively short treatment period,” Lianne Tomfohr of San Diego State University and the University of California, San Diego, whose study appears in the journal Sleep, said in a statement-Reuters.
24. The text is about ….
A. breathing problems
B. treatment with CPAP

D. obstructive sleep apnea

C. diabetes
D. heart attack
E. high blood pressure
26. A sleeper will suddenly rise from his/her sleep because ….
A. the energy increases
B. the airway is blocked
C. the blood pressure rises
D. there is a chronic disorder
E. the heart beats irregularly
27. “Peopled with breathing problems that disrupts their sleep ….” (Paragraph 1)

The following text is for questions 28 to 31.
During the summer, we went to the beach every day. We stayed at a lovely motel right on the beach.

For lunch we would eat something light like sandwiches and fruit. In the afternoon we would return to the pool area and sit in the sun for a while. At night we would take long walks along the beach or visit some friends who lived at 520 Volusia Avenue in Daytona Beach.
Many people from out of town stayed at the motel. Like us, they had been coming to that same motel since 2005. Most of them were from Ohio. From time to time we would eat out at a nice restaurant, where we did not have to wait long for the waitress to serve us. In July it is usually very crowded, but this year at least, it was not as crowded as in the past.

The following text is for questions 32 to 36.
Parasitic plants depend entirely on their hosts for their nourishment. They have no green leaves and so cannot photosynthesize food. Instead they bore into the tissues of other plants and take the food they need.
Parasitic plants are those that live on other plants without giving any benefit to their hosts in any way. In some cases, parasites cause harm to their hosts. For example, parasitic fungi cause wheat and beans rust, potato and tomato blight, apple scab, and downing mildew of grapes.
Dodders are one of the largest groups of parasitic plants. They have long, twining red or yellow stems, with tiny scale like leaves. Most dodders live off small plants, such as nettles or gorse, but some are parasites of trees. A young dodder seedling quickly twines round a host plant, and buries its suckers (haustoria) into it in many places as it can.
Broomrapes and toothworts are also common parasites. Broomrapes attack such plants as clover and daisies, while toothworts are parasites of trees, such as hazel. Both of these parasites attack the roots of their hosts.
One of the most extra-ordinary parasites in Rafflesia. Its huge flower, the largest in the world, is the only visible part of the plant. The remainder consists of threads buried in the host’s roots.

The following text is for questions 37 to 41.
Nuclear power is generated by uranium which is a metal mined in various part of the world. The first large-scale nuclear power station was opened at Calder Hall Cumbria, England, in 1956.
Some military ships and submarines have nuclear power plant for engines. Nuclear power produces around 11% of the world’s energy needed, and produces huge amounts energy. It causes no pollution as you’d get when burning fossil fuels.
The advantages of nuclear as follows:
- It costs about the same as coal, so it is not expensive to make
- It doesn’t produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it doesn’t contribute to the greenhouse effect.
- It produces huge amounts of energy from small amount of uranium.
- It produces small amounts of waste.
- It is reliable.
On the other hand, nuclear power is very, very dangerous. It must be sealed up and buried for many years to allow the radioactivity to die away. Furthermore, although it is reliable, a lot of money has to be spent on safety because if it does go wrong, a nuclear accident can be a major disaster.
People are increasingly concerned about this. In the 1990’s nuclear power was the fastest growing source of power in many parts of the world. In 2005, it was the second slowest growing.
37. The first large-scale nuclear power station was opened in England in ….
A. 1950

39. The main idea of the fourth paragraph is ….
A. Nuclear is reliable
B. Nuclear power is safe
C. Nuclear power is dangerous
D. A nuclear accident can be a major disaster
E. It needs many years to die the radioactivity
40. Which statement do you agree with about nuclear?
A. It is reliable.
B. It is costly to make.
C. It causes air pollution.
D. It affects the greenhouse.
E. It produces small amounts of energy.

The following text is for questions 42 to 46.
Peter J.D’ Adamo is a naturopath who treats illness by such means as changing the food that people eat, and tries to help the body to cure itself without the use of dangerous drugs.
