    PRACTICE PROGRESS TEST (10 POINTS) – Spring 2022

    SECTION I. READING (2.5 points)


    Read the text carefully and answer the following questions. (0.5 each)

    Are you sure?

    1. Knowing what is good for us and what isn’t can be confusing. For example, let’s think about drinking coffee. Drinking
    coffee helps you concentrate, and it can help you stay awake when you are tired. However, if you drink more than six cups a
    day, it may cause headaches, stomach upsets, and you may not sleep well. It’s better to just drink two or three cups a day.

    2. How about food? Chocolate contains fat and can make you overweight if you eat a lot. But chocolate also contains
    chemicals that make you feel happy. It can help you if you feel depressed. On the other hand, red meat has protein and
    vitamins, which are good for you, but it also contains fat. So if you eat too much, it can damage your stomach and heart.

    3. How about daily activities? Take running. Running is good for you. It helps to make your heart and muscles stronger
    and produces chemicals that make you feel happy, but it can be bad for you too. If you are a beginner and run too fast or too
    far, you can damage your heart and muscles. Studying is obviously good for you and your grades, but studying can also
    negatively affect your health. So when you read a newspaper article saying ‘X is good for you’ or ‘Y is bad for you’, do some
    research. X may also be bad for you, and Y may be good. Always read at least two articles before you decide which is true.

    1. The reading text is mainly about how ____.

    a. drinking some coffee will make you feel happy and help you have a healthier body
    b. people should find out more about something before deciding if it is good for them
    c. taking care of your stomach and heart is the key to living a happy, healthy life

    2. According to paragraph 3, how can running be bad for you?

    a. Running helps you make your heart and muscles stronger.


    b. Running can hurt your body if you don't know how to do it.
    c. Running can sometimes produce bad chemicals in your body.

    3. We should be careful about consuming red meat because it __________.

    a. has some fat that can be harmful


    b. doesn’t have proteins and vitamins
    c. can help your stomach and heart

    4. Based on the reading, we can infer that _________________________.

    a. we should not drink any coffee in the morning


    b. eating too much of something is good for us
    c. some desserts can actually be good for you

    5. According to the reading passage, what are some things you can do if you feel sad? Please explain.

    Eating chocolate, because it contains chemicals that make you feel happy.
