46: ______
In the past year, the adult obesity rate rose in 48 of America’s 52 states. Despite the campaigns to make people aware of the dangers of over-eating, about 119 million, or 64% of US adults are either overweight or obese. Worryingly, this figure is predicted to rise to 73% by the end of this year. What does this mean for America? Already 300,000 deaths each year are caused by obesity (only smoke kills more people), and the annual cost to the country is around $100 billion.
47: ______
Many people blame for the fast food industry, along with sedentary life styles, for the worrying increase. The average American now consumes about three hamburgers and four portions of French fries every week. That’s 90 grams of fat and 2.250 calories (the average person needs about 2.000 calories a day). A recent survey found that every month 90% of America children eat at least one meal in fast food restaurant.
48: ______
Most Americans know that fast food isn’t good for them. It is high in calories, fat, salt and sugar. Yet fast-food restaurants are part of American life. After World War II, higher salaries and productivity, together with technological developments and increased consumerism, made fast food restaurants popular. It presented a modern lifestyle, and is still a popular place for teenagers to get together with friends. The food is cheap, and many say they love the taste. The advertising is often aimed at children, with offers of entertainment and free gifts.
49: ______
Another in fast food sales – not only in the USA, but all over the world – is our increasingly busy lifestyles. In the past, families ate a home-cooked meal together at dinner time. These days, meals can be eaten at any hour of the day, and people rely on easy, instant food – not always nutritious – that is available “24/7”. America invented the “TV dinner”, and it is something most people around the world now enjoy.
50: ______
Finding nutritious food is also difficult in schools, which is often have contracts with fast food supplies and drinks companies. Teenage boys in the US each drink an average of 868 cans of fizzy drinks per year. Exercise in school has become less important too. A recent report showed that half of all US teens aged 12 – 21 got only America’s problem – Europe is also getting faster. It is estimated that over one million children in the UK are obese and this number has trebled over the past 20 years.

IV. Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each question (10 points).
Line (5) (10) (15) (20) (25) | Paul Bunyan is perhaps America’s best-known folk hero. A fictional logger of incredible strength, he was most likely based on an actual nineteenth-century logger from the northern United States or Canada. As a folk hero, he struck a chord with Americans on some level, perhaps because he was incredibly strong but also because he was hard-working and capable, ingenious in solving problems, and fun-loving. Though there is evidence that Paul Bunyan tales were part of oral tradition in the nineteen century, Paul Bunyan stories did not appear in written form until the early twentieth century. Journalist James McGillivray included descriptions of Bunyan in a series of essay entitled “The Round River Drive” which appeared in a number of Midwestern newspapers between 1906 and 1910. However, it was through an extensive advertising campaign that Paul Bunyan moved solidly into print. Recognizing the appeal of Paul Bunyan as a figure for his company’s advertising, William Laughead, an advertising executive for the Red River Lumber Company, initiated a campaign that consisted of a series of publications featuring Paul Bunyan. For several decades, the company distributed these publications free of charge and made no attempt to obtain a copyright on them. In fact, the company vigorously encouraged other writers to make use of Paul Bunyan because it felt that the use of this character enhanced the name recognition of the Red River Lumber Company inasmuch as the name of the folk hero and the name of the company had become interwoven. The Bunyan stories published by Red River and further circulated by others were tall tales of gigantic proportions. In these tales, Banyan is depicted as a man of superhuman proportions, who is strong, hard-working, entrepreneurial, and innovative. In one story, for example, Paul is credited with digging the Great Lakes in order to create a watering hole for his giant ox, Babe. In another of these tales, Paul caused an entire winter of blue snow to fall by swearing a blue streak after he injured himself by smashing his thumb with a large hammer. A third story in the series describes Paul’s role in establishing the Mississippi River. Fascination with Paul Bunyan has continued to grow, and today he is a standard of American folklores. The prevalence of Bunyan as a figure of folklore today is evidenced by references to him in countless stories, cartoons, poems, and songs as well as the numerous community festivals and logging competitions featuring Paul Bunyan that can be found throughout the sections of the country where logging has strong tradition. |
61. The purpose of this passage is to ______.
A. present the actual feats of a real-life logger
B. provide an overview of American folktales
C. describe logging in North America
D. discuss a “larger than life” folk hero
62. It is NOT stated in the passage that Paul Bunyan is known for his ______.
A. unusual strength B. dedication to work
C. ingenuity in difficult situations D. serious nature
63. The passage states that Paul Bunyan tales first appeared ______.
A. in oral stories B. in advertising C. in newspapers D. in a series of essays
64. Which of the following CANNOT be inferred about the Red River Lumber Company’s advertising campaign featuring Paul Bunyan?
A. It endured for quite a time.
B. The company did not protect its ownership of the stories.
C. The campaign did little to enhance the company’s profitability.
D. The company wanted the name Paul Bunyan to be known as widely as possible.
65. The pronoun “them” in line 14 refers to ______.
A. publications B. series C. decades D. writers
66. The word “interwoven” in line 17 could be best replaced by ______.
A. unfashionable B. mixed together C. not compatible D. too separate
