[03:33.39]Passage One
[03:36.66]Sugar is so much a part of our modern life that we only really think about it when,for some reason,we cannot obtain it.
[03:45.83]It has been known to man for at least 3,000 years,but has come into common use only in modern times.
[03:55.00]Until quite recently it was considered as a medicine and as a luxury for the very rich only.
[04:02.13]Sugar is,then,very important to our civilization.
[04:06.70]But what exactly is it?
[04:08.97]Of course most of us recognize sugar immediataly as the sweet material which we put in coffee or cakes.
[04:17.07]This common form of sugar is derived from two plants;the sugar cane and the sugar beet.
[04:24.28]But there are in fact many types of sugar,and the chemist recognises hundreds of different varieties,each coming from a different source.
[04:34.91]About 90% of the sugar is produced as food.
[04:38.62]Only 10% is used in industry for purposes other than food production.
[04:44.34]Yet sugar has great possibilities for use as the basis of chemicals.
[04:49.52]It can even be used for making plastics.
[04:52.65]In the future these potential uses will certainly be developed more than in the past.
[04:59.36]Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[05:05.58]11.How long has sugar been used widely?
[05:11.69]12.What material is mentioned that can be made from sugar?
[05:17.91]13.Which of the following statements is true?
[05:24.08]Passage Two
[05:26.24]Last week when I was watching TV news,the announcer,whose name was Ralph Story.
[05:33.92]said something that caught my attention.

[05:45.70]Being a little over thirty myself I wanted to disagree with him.
