        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 died as well, especially cancer of the colon.People of different cultures are more prone to contract 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 and nitrites(commonly used to preserve color in meats)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 labels of prrocessed food are helpful or harmful.
        The additives that we eat are not all so direct.Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and puoltry,and become of this penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal 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 repeadly to control these procedures,the prectices continue.
        A healty diet is directly related to good health.Often we are unaware of detrimental substances to ffod without our knowledge.

d.The scientists have preserved the color of meats,but not o.vegetables.

pembahasan:A"distance" is a harmful action.Sentence 2 says that science has"made many foods unfit to eat."The reading later gives nitrates and nitrites as harmful substances that have been added to food.

2.The word"prone"in line 8 is nearest in meaning to
a.supine
b.unlikely
c.healthy 
d.predisposed

pembahasan:"prone"in this context means the different cultures are more"likely"to contract certain illnesses because of their food choices.Choice(B)can be eliminated because it's the opposite of"likely."Choice(C)doesn't make sense."Predisposed"is the synonym for"prone"in this use.

3.What are nitrates used for?
a.They preserve flavor in packaged foods.
b.They preserve the color of meats

5.The word"these"in line 13 refers to
a.meats
b.colors
c.researchers
d.nitrates and nitrites

pembahasan:"These"is specifying the"cardicogenic additives" that follow it."These carcinogenic additives"refers to the previous sentence's"nitrates and nitrites"that caused cancer.Therefore,"nitrates and nitrites"is answer.

6.In line 13,the word"carcinogenic"is closest in meaning to
a.trouble-making
color-retaining
c.money-making
d.cancer-causing

pembahasan:"Carcinogenic"means"cancer-causing."Paragraph 2,sentence 2,states that nitrates and nitrites cause cancer.The following sentence begins,"yet, these carcinogenic additives......"You can assume that the word"these refers to the cancer-causing additives mentioned in the previous sentence.

c.The Food You Eat Can Affect Your Health

a.athletic
b.suitable
c.tasty
d.adaptable

pembahasan:The word"fit"is contrasted with"unfit.The fact that the sentence says"science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat"should provide a clue that"fit"is"suitable."

a.2-4
b.10-11

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic ...

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived...
