Part III Reading Comprehension
Passage 1
In 1967, in response to widespread public concern aroused by medical reports of asbestos-related deaths, the National Medical Research Council organised a committee of enquiry to investigate the health threats associated with the use of asbestos in the building industry.
After examining evidences provided by medical researchers and building workers and management, the Council published a report which included advice for dealing with asbestos. The report confirmed the findings of similar research in the United States and Canada Exposure to relatively small quantities of asbestos fibres, they concluded, was directly responsible for the development of cancers, asbestosis and related diseases. Taking into account evidence provided by economists and building industry management, however, the report assumed that despite the availability of other materials, asbestos would continue to play a major role in the British building industry for many years to come because of its availability and low cost.
As a result, the council gave a series of recommendations which were intended to reduce the risks to those who might be exposed to as best as in working environments. They recommended that, where possible, asbestos-free materials should be employed. In cases where asbestos was employed, it was recommended that it should be used in such a way that loose fibres were less likely to enter the air. The report recommended that special care should be taken during work in environments which contain asbestos. Workers should wear protective equipment and take special care to remove dust from the environment and clothing with the use of vacuum cleaners.
The report identified five factors which determine the level of risk involved. The state and type of" asbestos is critical to determining the risk factors. In addition, dust formation was found to be limited where the asbestos was used when wet rather than dry.
The choice of tools was also found to affect the quantities of asbestos particles that enter the air. Machine tools produce greater quantities of dust than hand tools and, where possible, the use of the latter was recommended.
A critical factor which takes place in risk reduction is the adequate ventilation of the working environment. When work takes place in an enclosed space, more asbestos particles circulate and it was therefore recommended that natural or machine ventilation should be used. By closely following these advice, it was claimed that exposure can be reduced to a reasonably practical minimum .
36. Exposure to asbestos fibres can cause cancer _______.
A. only when asbestos is used in building industry.
B. only when it is used in large quantities.
C. even if it is used in small quantities.
D. if they are used when wet rather than dry.
37. Exposure to asbestos fibres is harmful to people s health
A. so the use of asbestos is limited.
B. but asbestos will continue to be used for a long time to come.
C. so other new kinds of materials are under development.
D. but the) will not be so when ventilation devices are used
38. It can be inferred from the passage that the real danger comes from _______.
A. the 3sbestos dust that people take in
B. the contact of the worker s skin with asbestos particles
C. the inferior quality of the asbestos itself
D. the excessive use of man-made asbestos material
39. Evidence from the economists and the building industries shows that _______.
A. exposure to asbestos fibres is cancer causing
B. asbestos is in extensive use in building industry
C. use of asbestos is being reduced gradually
D. exposure to asbestos fibres can be reduced significantly
Passage 2
Elderly people respond best to a calm and unhurried environment. This is not always easy to provide as their behaviour can sometimes be irritating. If they get excited or upset they may become more confused and more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be extremely difficult, it is best to be patient and not get upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary.
Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. You must use every opportunity to provide information but remember to keep it simple and straightforward. "Good morning Mum. This is Fiona, your daughter. It is eight o clock, so if you get up now, we can have breakfast downstairs."
When the elderly person makes confused statements e. g. about going out to his or her old employment or visiting a dead relative, correct in a calm matter of fact fashion: "You don t work in the office any more. You are retired now. Will you come and help me with the dishes?"
We rely heavily on the information provided by signposts, clocks, calendars and newspapers. These assist us to organise and direct our behavior. Confused old people need these aids all the time to compensate for their poor memory. Encourage them to use reminder boards or diaries for important coming events and label the contents of different cupboards and drawers. Many other aids such as information cards, old photos, scrap books, addresses or shopping lists could help in individual case .
40. The main subject of the passage about elderly people is ________.
A. their general care and welfare

A. removing some of his or her worries about the job
B. suggesting sensible things to do in these circumstances
C. providing ideas that help in recovering the lost memory
D. explaining the causes of loss of memory
42. By "in a calm matter-of-fact fashion" (Para. 3) the author most probably means _______.
A. plainly and sensibly
B. by a detailed explanation of the mistakes
C. by showing sympathy and understanding
D. by ignoring them and talking about something else
43. Visual aids can give practical help to elderly people by ________.
