Edward Patrick Eagan was born on April 26th 1897 in Denver, Colorado, and his
father died in a railroad accident when Eagan was only one year old. He and his four
brothers were raised by his mother, who earned a small income from teaching foreign
languages.
Inspired by Frank Marriwell, the hero of a series of popular novels for boys,
Eagan pursued an education for himself and an interest in boxing. He attended the
University of Denver for a year before serving in the U.S. army as an artillery lieutenant
during World War I. After the war, he entered Yale University and while studying there,
won the US national amateur heavyweight boxing title. He graduated from Yale in 1921,
attended Harvard Law School, and received a Rhodes scholarship to the University of
Oxford where he received his A.M. in 1928.
While studying at Oxford, Eagan became the first American to win the British
amateur boxing championship. Eagan won his first gold medal as a light heavyweight
boxer at the 1920 Olympic Games in Antwerp, Belgium. Eagan also fought at the 1924
Olympics in Paris as a heavyweight but failed to get a medal. Though he had taken up
the sport just three weeks before the competition, he managed to win a second gold
medal as a member of four-man bobsled team at the 1932 Olympics in Lake Placid, New

Winter Olympics.

Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from (44-50)
Scientists do not yet thoroughly understand just how the body of an individual becomes sensitive to a
substance that is harmless or even wholesome for the average person. Milk, wheat, and egg, for example, rank
among the most healthful and widely used foods. Yet these foods can cause persons sensitive to them to suffer
greatly. At first, the body of the individual is not harmed by coming into contact with the substance. After a
varying interval of time, usually longer than a few weeks, the body becomes sensitive to it, and an allergy has
begun to develop. Sometimes it's hard to figure out if you have a food allergy, since it can show up so many
different ways.
Your symptoms could be caused by many other problems. You may have rashes, hives, joint pains
mimicking arthritis, headaches, irritability, or depression. The most common food allergies are to milk, eggs,
seafood, wheat, nuts, seeds, chocolate, oranges, and tomatoes. Many of these allergies will not develop if these
foods are not fed to an infant until her or his intestines mature at around seven months. Breast milk also tends
to be protective. Migraines can be set off by foods containing tyramine, phenathylamine, monosodium
glutamate, or sodium nitrate. Common foods which contain these are chocolate, aged cheeses, sour cream, red
wine, pickled herring, chicken livers, avocados, ripe bananas, cured meats, many Oriental and prepared foods
(read the labels!).
Some people have been successful in treating their migraines with supplements of B-vitamins,
particularly B6 and niacin. Children who are hyperactive may benefit from eliminating food additives,
especially colorings, and foods high in salicylates from their diets. A few of these are almonds, green peppers,
peaches, tea, grapes. This is the diet made popular by Benjamin Feingold, who has written the book “Why
your Child is Hyperactive”. Other researchers have had mixed results when testing whether the diet is
effective.
Question 44: The topic of this passage is_________________
A. reactions to foods B. food and nutrition C. infants and allergies D. a good diet
Question 45: According to the passage, the difficulty in diagnosing allergies to foods is due to
A. the vast number of different foods we eat
B. lack of a proper treatment plan
C. the similarity of symptoms of the allergy to other problems
D. the use of prepared formula to feed babies
Question 46: The phrase "set off" in the paragraph second is closest in meaning to
A. relieved B. identified C. avoided D. triggered
Question 47: The author states that the reason that infants need to avoid certain foods related to allergies has
to do with the infant's
A. lack of teeth B. poor metabolism
C. underdeveloped intestinal tract D. inability to swallow solid foods
Question 48: The word "these" in the third paragraph refers to
A. food additives B. food colorings
C. innutritious foods D. foods high in silicates
Question 49: Which of the following was a suggested treatment for migraines in the passage?
A. Eating more ripe bananas B. Avoiding all Oriental foods
C. Getting plenty of sodium nitrate D. Using Vitamin B in addition to a good diet
Question 50: What can be inferred about babies from this passage?
A. They can eat almost anything.
