SECTIONⅢ Reading Comprehension(40 minutes)
Part A
Directions:
Read the following three texts.Answer the questions on eachtext by choosing A,B,C or D.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Text 1
Karen and Ken Mullin.a youngprofessional couple in Cleveland,own fifty cookbooksand twofull)equipped kitchens in their house.Yet they rarely cook their own meals;instead,on their way home from work they usually stop at a supermarket andchoose two portions of meat loaf and a containerof ready-to-serve potatoes.“My job,”says Karen,“is to pour the salad from the bag.”
A half-century after the first TVdinner was born,the food industry is approaching its long—sought dream of relieving people like the Mullins ofunpaid labor in the final,and arguably most profitable,step by which a cow gets turnedinto meat loaf.Increasingly,tables in America’skitchens are used not for cutting orpeeling but for putting takeout food onto plates.For thosewho even bother withplates.According to Harry Balzar,an influential food—industry researcher,American dinners that came from atakeout counter increased by 24 percent in the past decade.“We thought the micro- wave would be acooking device,”says Harry Balzer,“but we find it reheating takeout pizza.”
Across the United States,entire business models arebeing transformed.Supermarket takeout
counters,formerly aplace where unsold chickens were coated with sauce,increasingly resemble high-end corporate cafeterias.with sushi bars and stir—fry stations.
One psychologist thinks the,trend toward healthier eatingis responsible:Americans have finally gotten the message that it’s bad to eat fried chicken,so they’re doing it at home where no one can see them.
Of course,there are people you wouldn’t expect to cook at home,like Steve Traxler,an un·married Chicago theaterproducer,whose refrigerator contains little more than orange juice,wine ard leftovers.
Well,somebody must beusing those cookbooks,right?“People don’thave time to cook;I think they’re reading them in bed,”says Rozanne Gold,author of a cookbook.
It’snot entirely a question of time.The takeout fashion is fueled,in part,by the popularity of foods like sushi,which even adventuresomeAmerican cooks are unlikely to try to make at home.
And takeout fills another need aswell,for the atmosphere of thehome—cooked dinner.

Yes.Aditi has shown US that it is possible todo it all.But can she really be a symbol of Indian
womanhood assome carried—away journalists and event managers have suggested?Is she themodem day Mother India?The one who can inspire the thousands of mothers and wives to break outof the petty confines of the roles they are forced to play?Will she find an echoamong all those working-women dealingwith families,bosses and unsupportive husbands?To most women.the worldof AditiGowatrikar would seem like a different planet.

The first rule stepping up our luck is tolook for variety.Morevariety will result in a richer life with more opportunities.The more varied life is,the more likely that unexpectedcombinations of events will occur,giving usthe chance to improve our situation.Being able to changeis the best way tosurvive in changing,unpredictabletimes.

Each of us should find one action that willincrease variety:subscribe to a new magazine,take adifferent route to work,sign up for a night.schoolcourse.Then focus on its positive results-This positive reinforcement.together with the pleasure ofsensing the power in doing what we want to,should give us the courage for the nextact.
