and store: First, always store the tin in the fridge when unopened. Do not keep it 28 . Second, always open outdoors

can kill time, do time, save it, and spend it. Time even takes on a medicinal role when it comes to healing both physical
and emotional 32 . Most of us wish we 33 more of it, and yet time persists as an object of value, as in "Time
is money," and an enemy of every person, as in "The deadline is approaching" or "His days are 34 ." It is, eventually,
the thing 35 kills all of us. And yet for all its pervasiveness in our everyday conversations, describing what time
is doesn't come easily.

Terms considered proper for a group or phenomenon seem to change every generation or so. The term crippled, for
example, sounds abusive today, 36 it was once considered civil by educated, sensitive people. Crippled began as
a(n) 37 term. However, a sad reality of human society is that there are negative associations and even dismissal
harbored 38 those with disabilities. Crippled thus became accreted with those overtones to the point
that handicapped was fashioned as a replacement term 39 from such baggage. Similarly, because humans stayed
human, handicapped, later 40 shades of abuse, also conditioned another replacement like disabled. Such a(n)
periodic semantic renewal is an inevitable and healthy process.

Have you been caught up in a swarm of flying ants? And is there really a special "flying ant day"? Read on to discover
more…
1. Flying ants are just normal ants – with wings! The ants we are most used to seeing are female black garden ants,
marching around collecting food. But during summer, winged males and new queens of the same species take flight!
2. They fly to set up new ant colonies. The ants take to the skies so that queens can mate with males from different
colonies, and set up new nests of their own.
3. They only swarm during hot summer weather. For a swarm of ants to occur, conditions must be just right – they are
usually triggered by hot and humid weather in July or August.
4. "Flying ant day" is a myth. Because so many ants appear in the same place at the same time, the phenomenon is often
known as "flying ant day" – but it's really more of a short flying ant season. Depending on weather, the winged insects
may appear in different parts of the country any time between June and September.
5. They're harmless. These flying beasties might be super annoying, but they won't hurt you. Plus they provide loads of
extra food for hungry birds!
6. Female flying ants are bigger than males. Brave enough to take a closer look? You'll see that some of the winged ants
are much larger than others. The bigger ones are the queens – they're up to 15mm in length.
7. Queens bite their own wings off! After mating, queens chew off their wings and crawl around looking for a place to
dig a new nest. Look out for their discarded wings on the floor!
8. Flying ants are also called alates, the name given to the winged form of many insects.
41 Which of the following is similar in meaning to "swarm" in "... caught up in a swarm of flying ants ..."?
Variety. Piece. Group. Division.
42 What does the term "flying beasties" refer to in this passage?
Ants. Birds. Myths. Monsters.
43 According to the passage, why do the ants fly?
To look for food and collect it. To avoid hot and humid weather.
To escape from hungry birds. To mate and build a nesting site.
44 According to the passage, why can wings be found on the floor?
Queens of the ants chew off their wings after mating.
Wings of the flying ants are bitten off by hungry birds.
The wings fall off the ants because of humid and hot weather.
All these insects automatically shed their wings in July or August.

This month Cupid takes flight because love is in the air. And this year it smells like grease and salt. A perfume that
smells like French fries has proven to be as irresistible as the fast-food staple after selling out almost instantly. The Idaho
Potato Commission (IPC) released the limited-edition fragrance – "Frites by Idaho" – just in time for Valentine's Day,
and fans couldn't wait to get their hands on a bottle. Frites by Idaho is manufactured using distilled homegrown potatoes
and essential oils. Whether you and your valentine are planning to have a quiet dinner at home or will be heading out
for a fancy meal on that most romantic of days, you can make sure you crave fast food the entire time with Frites by
Idaho.
Sure this sounds silly, but think of all the words and feelings you associate with both perfume and French fries:
desire, alluring, intoxicating, irresistible, tasty. Okay, maybe not that last one, but you get the idea. The great state of
Idaho isn't taking its novelty fragrance too seriously, either. The 1.7 fluid ounce bottle was available for the same price
as a side of fries, just US$1.89. Unfortunately, that's also why it sold out immediately on the IPC website. But don't give
up hope just yet, French fry romantics. You can enter a contest to win one of 10 bottles the state is giving away for free.
Just head to the Idaho Potato Instagram page for how to enter.
Even if you don't end up nabbing one, we have an idea. Just rub some French fries on your neck before your loved
one shows up. Just remember to make sure you let your fries cool down before you do that. Things are heating up this
month, but hopefully not because of second degree burns.
46 What is this new product just in time for Valentine's Day?
French fries made with Idaho Potato. A perfume that smells like French fries.
Idaho potato with a 90 percent discount. A meal at a fast food restaurant in Idaho.
47 Why did the IPC release this new product?
It aims to promote potato sales in this slow month.
People cannot resist the tempting smell of the product.
It partners with fast food restaurants that sell fries.
People go to restaurants to celebrate Valentine's Day.
48 Which of the following ways is true about how to get this product?
By placing an order on the IPC website at the moment.
By rubbing some French fries on the neck.
By being a lucky winner in a giveaway contest.
By taking a bite of fries before your meal.
49 What is the author's tone in this passage?
Critical. Light-hearted. Sad. Serious.
50 Where can this passage be found?
An agricultural handbook. An online news report.
A travel magazine. A science paper.
