A growing demand for organics, and the near-total reliance by US farmers on
genetically modified corn and soybeans, is driving a surge in imports from other
nations where crops largely are free of bioengineering. Imports such as corn from
Romania and soybeans from India are booming, according to an analysis of US
trade data released Wednesday by the Organic Trade Association and Pennsylvania
State University. That shows a potential market for US growers willing to avoid
the use of artificial chemicals and genetically modified seeds, said Laura Batcha,
chief executive officer of the association, which includes Whole Foods Market
Inc., Whitewave Foods Co. and Earthbound Farm LLC. The report is "a help-
wanted sign" for US farmers, Batcha said. "There are market distortions that are
pretty striking." Most of the corn and soybean shipments become feed for chickens
and cows so they can be certified organic under US Department of Agriculture
guidelines. Organic poultry and dairy operators shun feed made with seeds from
Monsanto Co. and other domestic suppliers in favor of foreign products even as the
US remains the world’s top grower of corn and soybeans. As a result, imports to
the US of Romanian corn rose to $11.6 million in 2014 from $545,000 the year
before. Soybean imports from India more than doubled to $73.8 million. Rising
consumer demand in what’s been a niche market is creating shortages, pushing
companies that supply farms needing organic feed to seek out foreign sources.
About 90% of US corn and soy is bioengineered, thus automatically ineligible for
the organic label.
What is driving a surge in imports from other nations?
1) A growing demand for organics.
2) A rumor spread by US Trade Data.
3) Newly launched genetically modified seeds.
4) Push from export-import companies.
Correct Answer: A growing demand for organics.

About 90% of US corn and soy is bioengineered, thus automatically ineligible for

Why is 90% of US corn ineligible for the organic label?
1) Because they are imported.
2) Because they are bioengineered.
3) Because they don’t pass the test.
4) Because they are not popular.
Correct Answer: Because they are bioengineered.

About 90% of US corn and soy is bioengineered, thus automatically ineligible for
the organic label.
What is an irony mentioned in the passage?

they can be certified organic under US Department of Agriculture guidelines.
2) Rising consumer demand in what’s been a niche market is creating shortages,
pushing companies that supply farms needing organic feed to seek out foreign
sources.
3) Imports such as corn from Romania and soybeans from India are booming,
according to an analysis of US trade data released Wednesday by the Organic
Trade Association.
4) Organic poultry and dairy operators shun feed made with seeds from domestic
suppliers in favor of foreign products even as the US remains the world’s top
grower of corn and soybeans.
Correct Answer: Organic poultry and dairy operators shun feed made with seeds
from domestic suppliers in favor of foreign products even as the US remains the
world’s top grower of corn and soybeans.
Q : 69 - Read the given passage carefully and select the best answer to each
question out of the four given alternatives.
A growing demand for organics, and the near-total reliance by US farmers on
genetically modified corn and soybeans, is driving a surge in imports from other
nations where crops largely are free of bioengineering. Imports such as corn from
Romania and soybeans from India are booming, according to an analysis of US
trade data released Wednesday by the Organic Trade Association and Pennsylvania
State University. That shows a potential market for US growers willing to avoid
the use of artificial chemicals and genetically modified seeds, said Laura Batcha,
chief executive officer of the association, which includes Whole Foods Market
Inc., Whitewave Foods Co. and Earthbound Farm LLC. The report is "a help-
wanted sign" for US farmers, Batcha said. "There are market distortions that are
pretty striking." Most of the corn and soybean shipments become feed for chickens
and cows so they can be certified organic under US Department of Agriculture
guidelines. Organic poultry and dairy operators shun feed made with seeds from
Monsanto Co. and other domestic suppliers in favor of foreign products even as the
US remains the world’s top grower of corn and soybeans. As a result, imports to
the US of Romanian corn rose to $11.6 million in 2014 from $545,000 the year
before. Soybean imports from India more than doubled to $73.8 million. Rising
consumer demand in what’s been a niche market is creating shortages, pushing
companies that supply farms needing organic feed to seek out foreign sources.
About 90% of US corn and soy is bioengineered, thus automatically ineligible for

Organic poultry and dairy operators refused to buy seeds of which company?
1) Earthbound Farm LLC.
2) Whitewave Foods Co.

The Divine Comedy is a narrative poem describing Dante's imaginary journey.
Midway on his journey through life Dante realizes he has taken the wrong path.
The Roman poet Virgil searches for the lost Dante at the request of Beatrice; he
finds Dante in the woods on the evening of Good Friday in the year 1300 and
serves as a guide as Dante begins his religious pilgrimage to find God. To reach his
goal, Dante passes through Hell, Purgatory and Paradise. The Divine Comedy was
not titled as such by Dante; his title for the work was simply Commedia or
Comedy. Dante’s use of the word "comedy" is medieval by definition. To Dante
and his contemporaries, the term "comedy" meant a tale with a happy ending, not a
funny story as the word has since come to mean. Dante and Virgil enter the wide
gates of Hell and descend through the nine circles of Hell. In each circle they see
sinners being punished for their sins on earth; Dante sees the torture as Divine
justice. Dante first travels through circles of hell and then through 3 rings before
entering the 8th circle. Then there are 9 bowge before Dante reached the 9th circle.
After 9th circle Dante has to travel 4 more regions. On Easter Sunday, Dante
emerges from Hell. Through his travels, he has found his way to God and is able,
once more, to look upon the stars.

4) Wrong path in the woods.

The bird life of the Tarai region is much the same as that found in the Malabar
Coast and Assam, and includes horn‐bills, barbets, fruit‐pigeons, bulbuls and
woodpeckers. Along the cultivated areas and on the edge of the forests are found
some of the more common birds of the Indian plains, and many wading birds and
water fowls spend the winter among its streams and marshes. The cold season
stimulates the migration of many species of birds from Tibet such as wild ducks
and cranes, which breed in the mountains and descend to the plains for a brief
change. The Central Region is described as a clusterous space of mountains
varying in elevation from 4,000 to 10,000 feet with a range of temperature varying
from ten to twelve degrees lower the Tarai. It includes the Mahabharat range of
mountains which rise to 8,000 feet to form a continuous barrier across Nepal from
east to west. At intervals, this mountain wall is pierced by the gorges of the
transverse rivers of the Seven Kosis, or the Seven Gandaks, or the noble river
Karnali. Between the Mahabharat range and the main Himalayan chain, there are
many populous valleys like Dumja, Kathmandu, Pokhara, and many others where
the majority of the population is densely concentrated. The fauna of this central
zone is characteristically Himalayan. Many of the species occurring in this region
are peculiar to Nepal alone. Such animals as the ferret, badger, raccoon, crestless
porcupine, etc., do not occur in the Indian peninsula. The whole genera of such
birds as yuhina, siva, minla, ixulu, etc., are nearly, if not wholly, restricted to this
region. The majority of reptiles occurring in this zone are purely Himalayan
species.
What does the cold season stimulates?
1) Shedding of trees
2) Flourishing of forest
3) Migration of many species of birds
4) Mountains and descend to the plains
Correct Answer: Migration of many species of birds
