Read the following TEXT in order to answer questions 32 to 40:
Does Garlic mean Garlic?
1 Mike looked at the label on the big plastic container. It said Garlic Powder. There
was a U with a circle around it after the word Powder. What does this U
3 mean, Mike wondered. Under the word Powder was another word, Seasoning. Under t
hat word was a drawing of a garlic bulb.
5 Mike knew that food labels can be tricky. Powder is powder, but Seasoning could
mean salt. He looked all around the plastic container for an
7 ingredients label. There wasn't one. In small print under the drawing of the garlic bulb
was a phone number: 1-800-632-6900. Call that number if you have
9 comments or questions, the label said.
Mike called the number. A woman answered. He asked her what the U
11 inside a circle meant. She said it meant kosher. Kosher food is food that is prepared according to Jewish law.
13 Mike asked where the ingredients label was. She said if there is only one
ingredient, there is no ingredients label.
15 "So, there is no salt in this product?" Mike asked.
"No, sir," she said. "It's 100 percent garlic powder."
17 "Why does it say, Product of USA and China?"
She said that sometimes they get the garlic from China, sometimes they
19 get it from the US.

1 When the sun rises on a warm and sunny day you can see the trumpet-
shaped flowers of the morning glory open up. When they close late in the
3 afternoon primrose flowers open and before daylight arrives the next morning
they close again.
5 Biological rhythms, like the opening and closing of flowers happen all over
nature. But not all of them are daily rhythms. Some, like the beating of your
7 heart, occur every second. Other rhythms are based on months, seasons or
years.
9 Scientists use the term biological clock to describe the timing that controls
biological rhythms. But what is this clock and where can you find it? In animals it
11 is probably controlled by the brain, but in plants and other living things that
have no brain it must be something else.
13 The biological rhythms of seashore organisms are connected to the rise and fall of the water. When the tide comes in they open their shells and get food,
15 when the water goes back the shells close to protect the animals from the dry
air.
17 The migration of animals is also an event that happens when a signal is sent
out. When days become shorter birds leave the northern parts of the world and
19 fly south where it is warm and they have enough food. In the summer they fly
back to have babies.
21 Humans also have biological clocks that control their daily rhythms. Body
temperature, blood pressure sleeping and waking up have a 24-hour rhythm.
23 Many illnesses have a yearly rhythm. Colds and flus often happen in winter.
Measles occur mostly during the spring and summer.
25 When people travel by plane from one continent to another they often cross
many time zones. Their internal clocks don’t seem to work correctly. We call this
27 jet lag. It makes you feel tired and it takes many days for your
body’s biological clock to get used to the new place.
29 People who work night shifts also have problems with their biological
clocks. In general, they may not be as alert or active as people who work during
31 the daytime. They also have more accidents during work. Sometimes they
ave more health and sleeping problems than other people.
33 By using the right medicine you can fight off problems that are connected with
different times of day. Heart attacks and strokes often 35 happen in the morning hours—
between the time you get up and noon. Asthma often occurs between midnight and the morning hours. So when people 37 with weak hearts take their medicine right after
waking up it might prevent a heart attack.
39 Biological clocks control many rhythms of life. We are learning more and more
about these rhythms. Doctors are looking for new ways to make travelling more
41 comfortable and medical treatment more effective.
