Part 2. Questions 66 – 75 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each)
Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question
67/Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs
also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. 70/One egg
yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. 69/This
knowledge has caused egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the
development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs.
These egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked.
They have the advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in
baking. One disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A
second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called 'designer' eggs. These eggs
are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and
rice bran. In spite of their diets, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of
cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not
raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to
back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol
levels have brought mixed results. It may be that it is not the type of egg that is the main
determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more
sensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain
dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol. 75/Consequently, while it still
makes sense to limit one's intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without
regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level.
66. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary fat increases the blood cholesterol level.
B. To inform people about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol.
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten

68. Which of the following could best replace the word 'somewhat'?
A. in fact B. a little C. indefinitely D. a lot
69. What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. increasing price B. decreased production
C. dietary changes in hens D. concerns about cholesterol
70. According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested daily
limit for human consumption of cholesterol?
A. 3/4 B. 2/3 C. 1/2 D. 1/3
71. The word 'portrayed' could best be replaced by which of the following?
A. studied B. destroyed C. tested D. described
