 Part II: Reading Comprehension
Directions: Read the following passages and choose the most appropriate answer for each
question. (40 points)

Passage I
If you do not want to pay hefty prices for imported beef, try buffalo meat, which may not
have the organic label but will be grass-fed and leaner than cow meat. That will satisfy
your craving for red meat. Fresh meat markets in Bangkok and the Northeast mostly sell cow
meat, but if you are living in the North, the markets mainly sell buffalo meat. (P1)

As for white meat, you can go for organic pork chops and eat no more than eight ounces
per meal. A three-oz serving of pork contains 0.105 oz of fat, while a chicken breast without the
skin contains 0.106 oz of fat, according to studies at the Universities of Wisconsin and Maryland.
(P2)

A much leaner and tastier alternative to chicken is turkey with its white and dark meats
that are packed with a gamy flavor. (P3)

Now that you are getting the go-ahead for meats, don’t forget to take everything in
moderation and make sure to trim the fats. For optimal health, balance your diet with whole
grains, nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables. (P4)

41) The word “hefty” (P1) means _______.

1. moderate 3. cheap
2. reasonable 4. high

42) What does “craving” (P1) mean?

1. taste 3. choice
2. desire 4. search

43) Which is NOT true about buffalo meat?

1. It is not expensive because it is a local product especially in the North.
2. It is grass-fed and so is leaner than cow meat.
3. It can as well satisfy your desire for red meat.
4. It is definitely tastier and more tender than cow meat.

44) What is the author’s advice?

1. Eat buffalo meat that has the organic label.
2. Eat chicken, which is leaner and tastier than turkey.
3. Eat meat in moderation.
4. Eat a good balance of various kinds of meats.

45) According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

1. Buffalo meat contains more fat than cow meat.
2. Northeastern people prefer cow meat to buffalo meat.
3. Turkey contains less fat than chicken.
4. A 3-oz serving of pork has about the same amount of fat as a skinned chicken breast.
