The peregrine falcon, a predatory bird indigenous to North America, was once in danger of extinction. In the 1960s, scientists discovered by products of the pesticide DDT in the birds’ eggs, which caused them to be too soft to survive. The use of the pesticide had been banned in the United States, but the falcons were eating migratory birds from other places where DDT was still used. In order to increase the survival rate, scientists were raising the birds in laboratories and then releasing them into mountainous areas. This practice achieved only moderate success, however, because many of the birds raised in captivity could not survive in the wild. There is now, however, a new alternative to releases in the wild. A falcon that has been given the name Scarlett chose to make her home on a ledge of the 33rd floor of a Baltimore, Maryland, office building rather than in the wild, and, to the surprise of the scientists, she has managed to live quite well in the city. Following this example, programs have been initiated that release birds like Scarlett into cities rather than into their natural wild habitat. These urban releases are becoming a common way to strengthen the species. Urban homes have several benefits for the birds that wild spots do not. First, there is an abundance of pigeons and small birds as food sources. The peregrine in the city is also protected from its main predator, the great horned owl. Urban release programs have been very successful in reestablishing the peregrine falcons along the East Coast. Though they are still an endangered species, their numbers increased from about 60 nesting pairs in 1975 to about 700 pairs in 1992. In another decade the species may flourish again, this time without human help. (Source: Adapted from TOEFL reading) Question 39: What is the main topic of the passage?

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 44 to 50. The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contact certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates nitrites (commonly used to preserve colour in meat) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging label of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue. A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest. Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge. Question 44: How has science done to disservice to people? A. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food. B. The scientists have preserved the colour of meats, but not of vegetables. C. It caused a lack of information concerning the value of food. D. Because of science, disease caused by contaminated food has been virtually eradicated. Question 45: The word “carcinogenic” is closest in meaning to___. A. trouble-makingB. money-makingC. cancer-causingD. colour-retaining Question 46: What are nitrates used for? A. They preserve the colour of meatB. They preserve flavor in package food C. There are objects of researchD. They cause the animals become fatter Question 47: FDA means___. A. Federal Dairy AdditivesB. Food and Drug Administration C. Final Difficult AnalysisD. Food Direct Additives Question 48: All of the following statements are TRUE except ___. A. Drug are always given to animals for medical reasons B. Food may cause forty percent of the cancer in the world C. Researchers have known about the hazard of food additives for more than 45 years D. Some of the additives are added to the food and some are given to the living animals Question 49: The word “these” refers to___? A. researchersB. nitrates and nitrites C. meatsD. colours Question 50: The word “additives” is closest meaning to___.
