The World Trade Organization (WTO), founded on January 1, 1995, aims to encourage international trade to flow as freely as possible, making sure that trade agreements are respected and that any disputes can be settled. In the five years since its founding, the WTO has become well known as one of the world’s most powerful economic organizations, taking its place alongside the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. The system of global rules for international trade, however, dates back half a century to 1948 when the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was formed after World War II. As time went by, it became clear that the GATT had two major drawbacks - the limited areas of trade it covered, and the lack of an effective system to settle disputes. After seven years of trade talks ending in 1994, the so-called Uruguay Round finally gave birth to the WTO, complete with an effective system to settle disputes and to form new rules covering trade in services and intellectual property. Even after seven years of talks and with 22,500 pages of agreements reached, problems remained, especially in the difficult-to-deal-with areas of agriculture and services. Question 27: According to the last paragraph, which of the following statements is true? A. The WTO is the world’s most powerful economic organization. B. The GATT was founded in Uruguay in 1995. C. The WTO has an effective system to settle disputes and to form new rules. D. All the countries in the world are member nations of the WTO. Question 28: What is the purpose of the WTO? A. To encourage international trade to flow freely. B. To make sure that trade agreements are respected. C. To settle any disputes. D. All of the above Question 29: The writer thinks that the WTO has become....... A. the world’s most powerful economic organization. B. less powerful than World Bank and International Monetary Fund. C. more powerful than any other economic organizations. D. one of the world’s most powerful economic organizations. Question 30: The word "went by" could best replaced by.........

It was once believed that being overweight was healthy, but nowadays few people subscribe to this viewpoint. While many people are fighting the battle to reduce weight, studies are being conducted concerning the appetite and how it is controlled by both emotional and biochemical factors. Some of the conclusions of these studies may give insights into how to deal with weight problems. For example, when several hundred people were asked about their eating habits in times of stress, 44 percent said they reacted to stressful situations by eating. Further investigations with both humans and animals indicated that it is not food which relieves tension but rather the act of chewing. A test in which subjects were blindfolded showed that obese people have a keener sense of taste and crave more flavourful food than non-obese people. When deprived of the variety and intensity of tastes, obese people are not satisfied and consequently eat more to fulfill this need. Blood samples taken from people after they were shown a picture of food revealed that overweight people reacted with an increase in blood insulin, a chemical associated with appetite. This did not happen with average-weight people. In another experiment, results showed that certain people have a specific, biologically induced hunger for carbohydrates. Eating carbohydrates raises the level of serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the brain. Enough serotonin produces a sense of satiation, and hunger for carbohydrates subsides. Exercise has been recommended as an important part of a weight-loss program. However, it has been found that mild exercise, such as using stairs instead of the elevator, is better in the long run than taking on a strenuous program, such as jogging, which many people find difficult to continue over periods of time and which also increases appetite. Question 34: The passage supports which of the following conclusions? A. Thin people don't enjoy food. B. deprivation of food makes people fat. C. Overweight people have an abnormal sense of taste. D. A variety of foods and strong flavours satisfies heavy people. Question 35: The word "crave'' in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to...... A. absorb B. sewn C. devour D. desire Question 36: The author mentions people's eating habits during times of stress so that...... A. thin people don't eat when under stress B. overweight people are tense C. a large percentage of people deal with stress by eating D. 56 percent of the population isn't overweight Question 37: What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To discuss the health problems caused by being overweight. B. To help overweight people overcome their eating problem. C. To present research into the factors causing obesity. D. To recommend a weight-loss program for the obese. Question 38: The word "this" in paragraph 2 refers to....... A. an increase in blood insulin B. a revealing blood sample C. a reaction to a chemical D. an increase in appetite Question 39: The word "subsides" paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to...... A. declines B. multiplies C. conquers D. suppresses Question 40: What can be said about serotonin? A. It tells the brain when a person is full. B. Only certain people produce it in their brains. C. It neurotransmits carbohydrates to the brain. D. It is a chemical which increases appetite.
