Q1-5 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
Staying active means keeping your body functioning at a high level. Regular exercise will maintain the performance of your lungs and heart to most efficiently burn off excess calories and keep your weight under control. Exercise will also improve muscle strength, increase joint flexibility and improve endurance. Another main benefit of physical activity is that it decreases the risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death in America. Additionally, it can decrease your risk of stroke, colon cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure. Regular exercise has been long associated with a fewer visits to the doctor, hospitalization and medication. Exercising does not have to be something boring and dreaded. It can be something that you enjoy that helps to increase the overall happiness in your life, as well as relieve symptoms of stress, depression and anxiety. Try to find some activities that give you pleasure, or even a buddy to do them with so that exercise is a fun and enjoyable activity (and one that you continue on a regular basis because it adds something good to your life).

Q6-10 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
A little more than 1.5 billion tonnes of steel was produced globally in 2012, according to the World Steel Association. Steel-making first involves the extraction of iron (a major component of steel) from iron ore. The process, in turn, is hugely energy intensive and polluting—itself accounting for around 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The search for a cleaner method of extracting iron from its ore, thus, has been a long-held dream—one that has intensified in the current environment of growing concern over global warming. Till now, little progress was made in this regard, but NASA’s lunar missions seem to have provided a significant breakthrough. In a paper published in Nature, Donald Sadoway of MIT writes that NASA’s aim at one point was to find a way to produce oxygen on the moon.

B. To solve the problem of global warming.

D. All of the above.
Q7 The process of steel making --------
A. Involves extracting iron from its ore
B. Accounts for around 5% of global green house gas emissions.

B. More than 1.5 billion tonnes of steel was produced in 2011 around the world.

D. None of these.
Q10 Why is there a search for a cleaner method of extracting iron from its ore?
A. It is very expensive.
B. Because the process is very polluting.
C. It leads to 50% green house gas emissions.
D. It produces little energy.
