Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C or D to answer the comprehension questions

Are organically grown foods the best food choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic foods - a term whose meaning varies greatly - frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious than others.

The growing interest of consumers in the safety and nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance of written material advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore.

Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for “no-aging” diets, new vitamins, and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains, and the like.

One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food supply and buy only expensive organic foods instead.

The author implies that there is cause for concern if consumers with limited incomes buy organic foods instead of conventionally grown foods because ______.

A. organic foods can be more expensive but are often no better than conventionally grown foods. 

Đáp án chính xác

B. many organic foods are actually less nutritious than similar conventionally grown foods. 

C. conventionally grown foods are more readily available than organic foods.

Many people have forgotten what the world was like before TV. But today it has become an integral part of our lives.

TV now plays such an important role in so many people’s lives that it is essential for us to try to decide (31)_______ it is bad or good.

For a family of 4, for example, it is more convenient as well as cheaper to sit comfortably at home than to go out. They don’t have to pay for expensive tickets.

The TV viewers need do nothing: they (33)______ no choices, they’re completely passive and don’t even use their legs.

TV, people often say, informs about current events and the latest developments in science and politics. A lot of good films, music programs have appeared recently on TV.

A friend of mine told me that when his TV set broke he and his family suddenly found that they had much more time to do things.
