Read the following passage and mark the letter A,B,C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the numbered blanks from 43 to 50.
The principle of use and disuse states that those parts of organisms’ bodies that are used grown larger
Those parts that are not tend to wither away It is an observed fact that when you exercise particular muscles, they grow Those that are never used diminish By examining a man's body, we can tell which muscles he uses and which he doesn't We may even be able to guess his profession or his reaction Enthusiasts of the "body- building" cult make use of the principle of use and disuse to "build" their bodies, almost like a piece of sculpture, into whatever unnatural shape is demanded by fashion in this peculiar minority culture Muscles are not the only parts of the body that respond to use in this kind of way Walk barefoot and you acquire harder skin on your soles It is easy to tell a farmer from a bank teller by looking at their hands alone The farmer's hands are horny, hardened by long exposure to rough work The teller's hands are relatively soft
The principle of use and disuse enables animals to become better at the job of surviving in their world, progressively better during their lifetime as a result of living in that world Humans, through direct exposure to sunlight, or lack of it, develop a skin color which equips them better to survive in the particular local conditions
Too much sunlight is dangerous Enthusiastic sunbathers with very fair skins are susceptible to skin cancer Too little sunlight, on the other hand, leads to vitamin-D deficiency and rickets The brown pigment melanin which is synthesized under the influence of sunlight, makes a screen to protect the underlying tissues from the harmful effects of further sunlight If a suntanned person moves to a less sunny climate, the melanin disappears, and the body is able to benefit from what little sun there is This can be represented as an instance of the principle of use and disuse: skin goes brown when it is "used", and fades to white when it is not
Question 28:What does the passage mainly discuss?
A How the principles of use and disuse change people's concepts of themselves B The changes that occur according to the principle of use and disuse
C The way in which people change themselves to conform to fashion D The effects of the sun on the principle of use and disuse
Question 29:The phrase "wither away" in paragraph is closest in meaning to
A split B rot C perish D shrink
Question 30:According to the passage, men who body build
A appear like sculptures B change their appearance C belong to strange cults D are very fashionable Question 31:From the passage, it can be inferred that author views body building
A with enthusiasm B as an artistic from C with scientific interest D of doubtful benefit Question 32:The word "horny" in paragraph is closest in meaning to
