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 31 to 35.
As heart disease continues to be the number-one killer in the United States, researchers
have become increasingly interested in identifying the potential risk factors that trigger heart
attacks. High-fat diets and “life in the fast lane” have long been known to contribute to the high
incidence of heart failure. But according to new studies, the list of risk factors may be
significantly longer and quite surprising.
Heart failure, for example appears to have seasonal and temporal patterns. A higher
percentage of heart attacks occur in cold weather, and more people experience heart failure on
Monday than on any other day of the week. In addition, people are more susceptible to heart
attacks in the first few hours after waking. Cardiologists first observed this morning
phenomenon in the mid-1980s and have since discovered a number of possible causes. An
early-morning rise in blood pressure, heart rate, and concentration of heart-stimulating
hormones, plus a reduction of blood flow to the heart, may all contribute to the higher incidence
of heart attacks between the hours of 8:00 A.M and 10 A.M.
In other studies, both birthdays and bachelorhood have been implicated as risk factors.
Statistics reveal that heart attack rates increase significantly for both females and males in the
few days immediately preceding and following their birthdays. And unmarried men are more at

risk for heart attacks than their married counterparts. Though stress is thought to be linked in

directly to the television. Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and
see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometres away. By 2050, music, films, programs,
newspapers and books will come to us by computer.
In what concerns the environment, water will have become one of our most serious
problems. In many places, agriculture is changing, and farmers are growing fruit and vegetables
to export. This uses a lot of water. Demand for water will increase ten times between now and
2050 and there could be serious shortages. Some futurologists predict that water could be the
cause of war if we don't act now.
In transport, cars running on new, clean fuels will have computers to control the speed and

there won't be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where
they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. On the
other hand, space planes will take people halfway around the world in two hours. Nowadays,
the United States Shuttle can go into space and land on Earth again. By 2050, space planes will
fly all over the world and people will fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
In the domain of technology, robots will have replaced people in factories. Many factories
already use robots. Big companies prefer robots - they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike,
and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere - in factories, schools,
offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
Last but not least, medicine technology will have conquered many diseases. Today, there
are electronic devices that connect directly to the brain to help people hear. By 2050, we will be
able to help blind and deaf people see and hear again. Scientists have discovered how to control
genes. They have already produced clones of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to
produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much
intelligence they have.
Question 36: What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The effect of the futurologists' prediction on our lives
B. The effect of telecommunication on our future life
