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 from 28 to 34. 
The first two decades of this century were dominated by the microbe hunters. These hunters had tracked down one after 
another of the microbes responsible for the most dreaded scourges of many centuries: tuberculosis, cholera, diphtheria. 
But there remained some terrible diseases for which no microbe could be incriminated: scurvy, pellagra, rickets, and 
beriberi. Then it was discovered that these diseases were caused by the lack of a vitamin, a trace substance in the diet. 
The diseases could be prevented or cured by consuming foods that contained the vitamins. And so in the decades of the 
1920s and 1930s, nutrition became a science and the vitamin hunters replaced the microbe hunters. 
In the 1940s and 1950s, the biochemists strived to learn why each of the vitamins was essential for us health. They 
discovered that key enzymes in metabolism depend on one or another of the vitamins as coenzymes to perform the 
chemistry that provides cells with energy for growth and function. Now, these enzyme hunters occupied center stage. 
You are aware that the enzyme hunters have been replaced by a new breed of hunters who are tracking genes, the 
blueprints for each of the enzymes- and are discovering the defective genes that cause inherited diseases- diabetes, 
cystic fibrosis. These gene hunters, or genetic engineers, use recombinant DNA technology to identify and clone genes 
and introduce them into bacterial cells and plants to create factories for the massive production of hormones and 
vaccines for medicine and better crops for agriculture. Biotechnology has become a multibillion-dollar industry. 
In view of the inexorable progress in science, we can expect that the gene hunters will be replaced in the spotlight. 
When and by whom? Which kind of hunter will dominate the scene in the last decade of our waning century and in the 
early decades of the next? I wonder whether the hunters who will occupy the spotlight will be neurobiologists who 
apply the techniques of the enzyme and gene hunters to the functions of the brain. What to call them? The head hunters. 
I will return to them later. 
Question 28: What is the main topic of the passage? 
 A. The microbe hunters B. The potential of genetic engineering 
 C. The progress of modern medical research D. The discovery of enzymes 
Question 29: The word “incriminated” in the passage is closest in meaning to 
 A. investigated B. blamed C. eliminated D. produced 
Question 30: Which of the following can be cured by a change in diet? 
 A. tuberculosis B. cholera C. cystic fibrosis D. pellagra 
Question 31: The word “strived” in the passage is closest in meaning to 
 A. failed B. tried C. experimented D. studied 
Question 32: How do vitamins influence health? 
 A. They are necessary for some enzymes to function. B. They protect the body from microbes. 
 C. They keep food from spoiling. D. They are broken down by cells to produce energy. 
Question 33: In the third paragraph, the author compares cells that have been genetically altered by bio-technicians to. A. gardens B. factories C. hunters D. spotlights 
Question 34: Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in the last paragraph of the passage? 
 A. critical B. speculative C. appreciative D. emotional 
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 from 35 to 42. 
 GOAL: ENDING CHILD LABOR 
Carefully guiding a needle that's longer than his tiny fingers, a young boy in Pakistan stitches together the leather pieces 
of a soccer ball. He sits crouched in the corner of a hot, airless shed for 12 hours. For his long day's work, he will earn 
60 cents. The boy is one of more than 200 million children who work at hard, sometimes dangerous jobs all over the 
world. Child labor exists in two-thirds of the world's nations. From Indonesia to Guatemala, poor children as young as 
six are sent off to work. Often they are mistreated and punished for not working hard enough. Children mix the 
gunpowder for firecrackers in China and knot the threads for carpets in India, all for pennies a day. Sometimes they are 
sold as slaves. 
In a speech to the Child Labor Coalition when he was U.S. Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich expressed gratitude for the 
organization's work to end abuse of child labor, "You turned up the heat, and you got results." He also congratulated 
Craig Kielburger, then 13, of Canada, who traveled the world for a year fighting for kids' rights. Craig believes kids can 
make a difference. He offers this advice, "Write letters to companies and government officials. Put pressure on leaders 
to make changes and to stop the misuse of children." 
One solution to the child-labor problem in poor countries is education. "The future of these countries," Secretary Reich 
declared, "depends on a work force that is educated. We are prepared to help build schools." 
Education has helped to make the world a brighter place for one youth, Aghan of India. When he was nine, Aghan was 
kidnapped from his home and sold to a carpet maker. Aghan's boss was very cruel. "I was always crying for my 
mother," he recalls. Aghan's dream was to learn to write so that he could send letters to his parents. Fortunately, a group 
that opposes child labor rescued Aghan from the factory. He was sent to a shelter in New Delhi where he worked hard to 
learn to write.
