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.
Almost every language in the world has dialects and American English is no exception. At the present
time there is an interesting study which is on American speech habits. This study has shown that different
words are frequently used in different parts of the country to denote the same thing. For example, in the
east, Americans use the word "soda" to denote a soft drink. In some parts of the west, a soft drink is
"tonic". Such differences are usually a source of conversation and sometimes misunderstanding happens.
Speech and life all over the world have often changed. New words are being used when new discoveries
are made and new concepts are formed. Usage determines what is correct and what is incorrect. Fifty
years ago, it was incorrect to say "It's me." But today it is acceptable simply because most Americans say
that instead of "It's I." People change, so language changes. What is wrong today may be right tomorrow.

correct answer to each of the questions.
Scientists work to genetically modify crops for various reasons. Sometimes the goal may be to
develop a crop that is resistant to disease or pesticides. 1 Another goal is to develop vegetables that have
a longer shelf life. Or, the purpose may be to develop a more nutritious form of a food plant. 2 An
example of the latter is golden rice. It was developed by scientists in Europe. They took ordinary rice and
inserted genes from the flower called daffodil, as well as a bacterium. 3 More to the point, however, it
added vitamin A, a nutrient that rice does not ordinarily have. 4
Vitamin A deficiency is a serious problem in many parts of the world. Vitamin A deficiency can
lead to blindness, compromised immunity, susceptibility to infection, and premature death. Children are
especially affected by lack of this vitamin. According to the World Health Organization, hundreds of
thousands of children go blind every year because of vitamin A deficiency.
Adding vitamin A to rice, which is a staple food in many areas where malnutrition is common, can
be an efficient way to address the problem. Consumption of a varied diet would, of course, be the most
desirable way to address nutrition needs. A number of vegetables, such as carrots and pumpkins, contain
high amounts of vitamin A and could address this vitamin deficiency. However, because of tradition,
economic considerations, and other issues, it is often not possible to pursue this type of solution. By
introducing golden rice into areas where rice is already consumed on a daily basis, researchers hope to
provide a source of this vitamin that will become part of the normal diet.
