 Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In 
many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of 
communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected. 
 The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors 
are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, 
there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative 
publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health. 
 On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. 
Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a 
traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple 
tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours 
a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his 
employer's doctor didn't agree. 
 What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can 
detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some 
radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. 
 As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's best to use mobile phones less often. Use your 
regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile 
phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a 
warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often. 
 Question 25: Which of the following could be the best tittle of the passage? 
 A. Technological innovations and their price. B. The reason why mobile phones are popular 
 C. The way mobile phones work D. Mobile phones: A must of time 
Question 26: The term “negative publicity” in paragraph 2 mostly means________. 
 A. information on the lethal effects of cellphones B. the negative public use of cellphones 
 C. widespread opinion about bad effects of cellphones D. poor ideas about the effects of cellphones 
Question 27: The word “they” in paragraph 1 refers to________. 
 A. young people B. many countries 
 C. cellphones D. means of communication 
Question 28: Which of the following is TRUE about what makes mobile phones potentially harmful? 
 A. their radiant light B. their power of attraction 
 C. their raiding power D. their invisible rays 
Question 29: The changes possibly caused by the cellphones are mainly concerned with________. 
 A. the resident memory B. the arteries of the brain. 
 C. the mobility of the mind and the body. D. the smallest units of the brain. 
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 questions from 30 to 35. 
 Plastic bags are used by everybody. From a vegetable vendor to a designer store, everyone seems to 
use them. Even though they are one of the modern conveniences that we seem to be unable to do without, 
they are responsible for causing pollution, killing wildlife, and using up the precious resources of the Earth. 
But, most of us are blissfully unaware of the repercussions that are occurring and will take place in the future 
because of the plastic bags. 
 Every once in a while, the government passes out an order banning store owners from providing plastic 
bags to customers for carrying their purchases, with little lasting effect. Plastic bags are very popular with both 
retailers as well as consumers because they are cheap, strong, lightweight, functional, as well as a hygienic means of 
carrying food as well as other goods. About a hundred billion plastic bags are used every year in the U.S. alone. 
And then, when one considers the huge economies and populations of India, China, Europe, and other parts of the 
world, the numbers can be staggering. The problem is further exacerbated by the developed countries shipping 
off their plastic waste to developing countries like India. 
 Once they are used, most bags go into landfills. Each year, more and more bags are ending up littering the 
environment. Once they become litter, plastic bags find their way into our waterways, parks, beaches, and 
streets. And, if they are burned, they infuse the air with toxic fumes. About 100,000 animals, such as dolphins, 
turtles, whales, penguins are killed every year due to these bags. Many animals ingest plastic bags, mistaking them 
for food, and therefore, die. And worse, the ingested plastic bag remains intact even after the death and 
decomposition of the animal. Thus, it lies around in the landscape where another victim may ingest it. One of the worst 
environmental effects is that they are non-biodegradable. The decomposition takes about 400 years. No one will 
live so long to witness the decomposition of plastic! Thus, save the environment for the future generations as well as 
animals. 
 Petroleum products are diminishing and getting more expensive by the day, since we have used this non-
renewable resource increasingly. And to make plastic, about 60-100 million barrels of oil are needed every year 
around the world. Surely, this precious resource should not be wasted on producing plastic bags, should it? 
Petroleum is vital for our modern way of life. It is necessary for our energy requirements - for our factories, 
transportation, heating, lighting, and so on. Without viable alternative sources of energy yet on the horizon, if the 
supply of petroleum were to be turned off, it would lead to practically the entire world grinding to a halt. 
 So, what can be done? A tote bag can make a good substitute for carrying groceries and the shopping. You can 
keep the bag with the cashier, and then put your purchases into it instead of the usual plastic bag. Recycling the bags 
you already have is another good idea. These can come into use for various purposes, like holding your garbage, 
instead of purchasing new ones. While governments may be working out ways to lessen the impact of plastic bags 
on the environment; however, each of us should shoulder some of the responsibility for this problem, which 
ultimately harms us. Plastics are not only non-biodegradable, but are one of the major pollutants of the sea. For a 
clean and green environment, try to use alternatives to plastic whenever and wherever possible. Cut down your use 
of plastic, and do your bit to save our planet.
