The ability to speak a second language isnt the

only thing that distinguishes bilingual people fromtheir monolingual counterparts - their brains workdifferently, too. Research has shown, forinstance, that children who know two languagesmore easily solve problems that involvemisleading cues. A new study reveals thatknowledge of a second language - even onelearned in adolescence - affects how people readin their native tongue. The findings suggest thatafter learning a second language, people neverlook at words the same way again. The mostimportant implication of the study is that evenwhen a person is reading in his or her nativelanguage, there is an influence of knowledge of

the non-dominant second language. Thus,becoming bilingual changes one of peoples mostautomatic skills. It goes without saying thatpeople who speak two languages process certainwords faster than others.

43. It is clearly stated in the passage that ----.

A) childrens brains process words more quicklythan adolescents

B) children should be taught a second languageat an early age when the acquisition of alanguage comparably is easier

C) children who speak a second language dowell in social interactions

D) monolingual children fall behind theirbilingual counterparts in solving challengingproblems

E) children should be encouraged to learn asecond language to cope with lifes hardships

A) once the mastery of another language otherthan ones own materializes

B) if language learning starts at school age

C) as more progress is made in understandingthe intricacies of their own native tongue

D) when a vast vocabulary is amassed in anylanguage

E) after having been given the opportunity tocompare the lexicon of other languages withhis or her own

45. It is pointed out in the passage that ----.

A) people who can speak two languagescompare favourably with others in terms ofprocessing some words

B) the knowledge of a second language putspeople in a unique position where they standout in most of the automatic skills

C) people who are bilingual are also good atmanaging auditory information

D) multilingual people can deal with thechallenges that loom up in front of them with

almost no difference from monolingualsE) monolingual children easily catch up with

their bilingual peers in due course of time

46. It is concluded in the passage that one of themost significant possible future effects orresults of the study is that ----.

A) children who master a foreign language leada happy life in their older years

The bacterium that causes the most cases of

food poisoning in the U.S. could someday beresponsible for much of the countrystransportation fuel. Researchers have used thetools of synthetic biology to manipulate the genesof E.coli, a common gut bacterium, so that it canchew up vegetation to produce diesel and otherhydrocarbons. E.coli is popular in geneticengineering because it is deeply studied andquite hardy, able to tolerate genetic changes well,says chemical engineer Jay Keasling of theUniversity of California. Researchers havealready modified E.coli to make medicines andchemicals, and now Keasling and his colleagueshave turned the organisms into biodiesel

factories. The scientists first genetically modifiedE.coli to consume sugar and secreteengine-grade biodiesel, which can float to the topof a fermentation tank no need for distilling,purifying or breaking cells open to get the oil out,as is the case for making biodiesel from algae.

47. It is stated in the passage that E.coli can begenetically modified ----.

A) to boost its efficiency in making sugar that isperfect for creating hydrocarbons desperately

needed in industryB) to break down sugar, and can then convert it

into engine-ready biodiesel fuel

C) to make it commercially viable but it takes alot of time and effort to get a large-scaleproduction process ready

D) to produce enough fuel to meet all of theU.S.s transportation needs and the world atlarge

E) to make shorter-chain hydrocarbons such asgasoline, of which the U.S. alone burnsbillions of liters a year

48. As it is pointed out in the passage, ----.

A) Keasling and his colleagues claim to turn allof the bacteria that live in human intestinesinto biodiesel producing factories

B) researchers are close to coming up with agenetically modified bacterium that canprevent food poisoning in the U.S

C) such genetically engineered bacteria asE.coli can be the answer to all humanitysworries

D) E.colis ability to bear with changing geneticconditions is a reason that makes it geneticengineers favourite

E) E.coli churns out biodiesel and otherhydrocarbons by only breaking down plantsinto pieces

49. According to the passage, ----.

A) E. coli grows faster than yeast, which makesit indispensable to scientists who are after acheap source of biodiesel fuel

B) Keasling is not alone in his regard for E. colias a fuel maker; several companies arepursuing commercial production from thehardy microbe

C) genetic changes have always posedproblems for researchers that are engaged inthe search for biodiesel out ofmicroorganisms and algae

D) biodiesel fuel can be obtained through algae,but it is a lengthy process when comparedwith genetically engineered E.coli

E) Keasling and his co-workers have not justturned E.coli into an endless biodiesel sourcebut also into medicines and chemicals

50. It is clearly stated in the passage thatengine-ready biodiesel fuel ----.

A) will be commercially produced in largequantities in the near future

B) that exists in nature could one day replaceother sources of energy

C) that the altered cells of some microorganismssecrete is fit for human consumption

D) can also be generated through themanipulation of the genes of some othermicrobes

E) produced by genetically modified E.coli canaccumulate on the top of a fermentation tank

In most areas of medicine, doctors have

historically tried to glean something about theunderlying cause of a patients illness beforefiguring out a treatment that addresses thesource of the problem. When it came to mental orbehavioral disorders in the past, however, nophysical cause was detectable so the problemwas long assumed by doctors to be solelymental, and psychological therapies followedsuit. Today scientific approaches based onmodern biology, neuroscience and genomics arereplacing nearly a century of purely psychologicaltheories, yielding new approaches to thetreatment of mental illnesses. Mental illnessespreviously defined as mental are now

recognized to have a biological cause: in autism,for example, it is an abnormality in theconnections between neurons, often attributableto genetic mutations; schizophrenia is nowviewed and treated as a developmental braindisorder. Yet the public and even clinicians havehad difficulty accepting that certain other mentaldisorders such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) or post-traumaticstress disorder (PTSD) could also bephysiological disorders of the brain.

59. It is obvious from the passage that whatcauses a disease ----.

A) is an area of study that is still in its earlystages, especially in mental illnesses

B) is not so important as finding a cure for it

C) is significant particularly for the treatment ofdegenerative illnesses

D) has always been something that physicianshave sought to find out in the majority of theareas in medicine

E) can be sorted out easily and effectively in allareas of medicine to bring real and lastingrelief to millions of people

60. It is clear from the passage that ----.

A) certain psychiatric disorders are nowbelieved to be physiological disorders of thebrain

B) many a mental illness results from purelypsychological processes which make themhard to cure

C) people with mental disorders can be treatedeffectively if the psychological cause of theillness is known

D) treatment of mental illnesses should betailored to the needs of each patient

E) some mental disorders such as autism andschizophrenia are thought to stem frompsychological processes

61. We learn from the passage that some mentalillnesses ----.

A) such as autism and post-traumatic stressdisorder affect a small number of people indeveloped countries

B) such as depression display a conspicuousbrain damage

C) like depression or obsessive-compulsivedisorder definitely have a physiological cause

D) have long been studied as abnormalities in

the connections between distant areas of thebrain

E) have been ascribable to changes in thegenetic structure, as is the case withschizophrenia

62. It can be concluded from the passage that ----.

A) neuroscience alone will reveal themalfunctioning connections underlyingpsychological disorders

B) new scientific methods are forcing

psychiatrists to rethink the causes of mentalillnesses

C) nearly a century ago, physiological causeswere thought to underlie many mentaldisorders

D) from the scientific standpoint, furtherresearch is required to establish the cause ofautism

E) for brain disorders, a better understanding ofthe psychological malfunctions will likely leadto more curative treatments
