V. READING COMPREHENSION
Exercise 9. Read the text carefully, then choose the correct answers.
Super Size Me is a 2004 film by Morgan Spurlock, in which he documents his experiment to eat only
McDonald's fast food three times a day, every day, for thirty days. Spurlock made himself a short list of
rules for the experiment, including an obligation to eat all of the three meals he ordered. He also had to
'Super Size', which means accepting a giant potion every time the option was offered to him. He ended up
9
vomiting after the first Super Size meal he finished, after taking nearly twenty minutes to consume it.
After five days Spurlock put on almost 5 kg, and he soon found himself feeling depressed, with no energy.
The only thing that got rid of his headaches and made him feel better was another McDonald's meal, so
his doctors told him he was addicted. More seriously, around day twenty, he started experiencing heart
palpitations and one of the doctors detected liver problems. However, in spite of his doctor's advice,
Spurlock continued to the end of the month and achieve a total weight gain of 11kg. His body mass index
also increased from a healthy 23.2 to an overweight 27.
It took Spurlock fifteen months to recover from his experiment and return to his original weight, but the film
also had a wider impact. Just after its showing in 2004, McDonald's phased out the Super Size option and
healthier options like salads appeared on the menu. Unfortunately, McDonald's denied the connection
between the film and the changes, but it is interesting to note how closely the coincided with the release of
the film.

Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Parents complain that it is difficult to live with teenagers. Then again, teenagers say exactly the
same thing about their parents! According to a recent survey, the most common arguments between
parents and teenagers are those regarding untidiness and household chores. On the one hand, parents
13
go mad over untidy rooms, clothes dropped on the floor and their children's refusal to help with the
housework. On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents tell them off for
dropping the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the
supermarket.
The survey, conducted by St George University, showed that different parents have different
approaches to these problems. However, some approaches are much more successful than others. For
example, those parents who yell at their teens for their untidiness, but later clear up after them, have fewer
chances of changing their teens' behaviour. On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the
consequences of their actions are more successful. For instance, when teenagers who don't help their
parents with the shopping don't find their favourite food in the fridge, they are forced to reconsider their
actions.
Psychologists say that the most important thing in parent-teen relationships is communication.
Parents should talk to their teens, but at the same time they should listen to what their children have to
say. Parents should tell their teens off when they are untidy, but they should also understand that their
room is their own private space. Communication is a two-way process. It is only by listening to and
understanding each other that problems between parents and teens can be solved.

V. READING COMPREHENSION
Exercise 9. Read the text carefully, then choose the correct answers.
The costs and benefits of global warming will vary greatly from area to area. For moderate climate change,
the balance can be difficult to assess. But the larger the change in climate, the more negative the
consequences will become. Global warming will probably make life harder, not easier, for most people.
This is mainly because we have already built enormous infrastructure based on the climate we now have.
People in some temperate zones may benefit from milder winters, more abundant rainfall, and expanding
crop production zones. But people in other areas will suffer from increased heat waves, coastal erosion,
rising sea level, more erratic rainfall, and droughts.
The crops, natural vegetation, and domesticated and wild animals (including seafood) that sustain people
in a given area may be unable to adapt to local or regional changes in climate. The ranges of diseases
and insect pests that are limited by temperature may expand, if other environmental conditions are also
favorable.
19
In its summary report on the impacts of climate change, the Intergovernmental panel on Climate Change
stated, "Taken as a whole, the range of published evidence indicates that the net damage costs of climate
change are likely to be significant and to increase over time."

Traditionally in America, helping the poor was a matter for private charities or local governments.
Arriving immigrants depended mainly on predecessors from their homeland to help them start a new life.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, several European nations instituted public-welfare programs.
But such a movement was slow to take hold in the United States because the rapid pace of
industrialization and the ready availability of farmland seemed to confirm the belief that anyone who was
willing to work could find a job.

 Most of the programs started during the Depression era were temporary relief measures, but one of
the programs - Social Security - has become an American institution. Paid for by deductions from the
paychecks of working people, Social Security ensures that retired persons receive a modest monthly
income and also provides unemployment insurance, disability insurance, and other assistance to those
who need it. Social Security payments to retired persons can start at age 2, but many wait until age 65,
when the payments are slightly higher. Recently, there has been concern that the Social Security fund
may not have enough money to fulfill its obligations in the 21st century when the population of elderly
Americans is expected to increase dramatically. Policy makers have proposed various ways to make up
the anticipated deficit, but a long-term solution is still being debated.
In the years since Roosevelt, other American presidents have established assistance programs. These
include Medicaid and Medicare; food stamps, certificates that people can use to purchase food; and public
housing which is built at federal expense and made available to persons on low incomes.
Needy Americans can also turn to sources other than the government for help. A broad spectrum of
private charities and voluntary organizations is available. Volunteerism is on the rise in the United States,
especially among retired persons. It is estimated that almost 50 percent of Americans over age 18 do
volunteer work, and nearly 75 percent of U.S. households contribute money to charity.
