1. What is stated in the passage about the Olympic Games?

• A. The Olympic Games are held every four years.
• B. The Olympic Games are often postponed.
• C. The Olympic Games are held only in leap years.
• D. The Olympic Games only involve certain countries.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'The Olympic Games are held every four years,' as stated in the passage. The extract explicitly mentions that the Summer Olympic Games are held every four years. Choice B is incorrect as there is no mention of the Olympic Games being often postponed in the passage. Choice C is incorrect because although the Olympic Games occur during leap years, they are not exclusively held only in leap years. Choice D is incorrect as there is no indication in the passage that the Olympic Games only involve certain countries.

2. Which is the best title for the passage about Hypertension?

• A. How to Manage Hypertension Successfully
• B. Doctors Discover the Hidden Dangers of Hypertension
• C. Doctors Work to Understand the Causes of Hypertension
• D. Causes, Symptoms, Complications, and Management of Hypertension

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The best title for the passage about Hypertension is 'Causes, Symptoms, Complications, and Management of Hypertension.' This title accurately reflects the content of the passage, which provides information about the causes, symptoms, complications, and management of hypertension. It covers a broad spectrum of information presented in the passage, making it the most comprehensive and suitable title. Choice A, 'How to Manage Hypertension Successfully,' is too narrow as it focuses solely on management without encompassing the other crucial aspects like causes and symptoms. Choice B, 'Doctors Discover the Hidden Dangers of Hypertension,' is misleading as the passage does not focus on any recent discoveries but rather provides general information about hypertension. Choice C, 'Doctors Work to Understand the Causes of Hypertension,' is also inaccurate as the passage mainly discusses causes, symptoms, complications, and management, rather than doctors' ongoing research efforts.

3. Which is not listed as an example of a low-impact sport?

• A. Martial arts
• B. Basketball
• C. Yoga
• D. Weight lifting

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Basketball is not listed as a low-impact sport in the extract provided; the others (martial arts, yoga, and weight lifting) are considered low-impact activities. The extract mentions that students can participate in low-impact sports like yoga, martial arts, and weight lifting in modern PE classes, emphasizing their benefits and the focus on general skills. Basketball, on the other hand, is not included in the list of low-impact sports mentioned in the extract, making it the correct answer. This demonstrates the importance of understanding the difference between high-impact and low-impact sports for maintaining fitness and health.

4. What motivates athletes to participate in the Summer Olympic Games?

• A. Athletes strive for winning medals.
• B. Athletes seek opportunities to travel the world.
• C. Athletes aim for financial gain.
• D. Athletes feel patriotic pride.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The main reason athletes want to participate in the Summer Olympic Games is often driven by a sense of patriotic pride. Representing their country and showcasing their skills on an international platform instills a deep sense of national pride in athletes. While winning medals is a significant goal for many athletes, the primary motivation to participate in the Olympics is often rooted in representing their nation. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because although athletes may aspire to win medals, travel the world, or earn money through endorsements, the core driving factor for most athletes in the Summer Olympics is the patriotic pride of representing their country.

5. Which detail is not given as a side effect of NSAIDs?

• A. Nausea
• B. Headache
• C. Weight loss
• D. Dizziness

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage lists several side effects of NSAIDs, including nausea, headache, and dizziness. However, weight loss is not mentioned as a side effect, making option C the correct choice since it does not align with the details provided in the text.
