B) It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food. They also help us to look nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of the tooth. This happens after germs and bits of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads inside the tooth. Eventually, poison goes into the blood, and we may feel quite ill. 
How can we keep our teeth healthy? Firstly, we ought to visit our dentist twice a year. He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to check that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before they see a dentist. Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day – once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal. Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolates, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay. 
1. Good teeth mainly help us to ____. 
A. look nice 	B. chew our food 	C. look important 	D. have good eyesight 
2. When food and germs collect in a small crack, our teeth _______. 
A. become hard 	B. make us feel quite ill 	C. begin to decay 	D. send poison into the blood 
3. A lot of people do not visit a dentist until ____. 
A. they have toothache 	B. they have holes in their teeth 
C. they have brushed their teeth 	D. their teeth grow properly 
4. What may be most harmful to our teeth? 
A. red rice 	B. raw vegetables 	C. fresh fruit 	D. sweet things 
5. The best title for the passage would be _______. 
A. “How to keep our teeth healthy” 	B. “How to make our teeth nicer” 
C. “How to clean our teeth” 	D. “How to keep our teeth ever white”

III. Read the passage and make the correct choice:
Furthermore, the laser beam can also remove bone, and so it is invaluable in ear surgery. The sounds we hear are carried from the eardrum to the nerves of the ear by a delicate set of small bones which sometimes solidify, causing deafness. A laser vaporises the bone without touching any of the surrounding tissue.
Birthmarks, once almost untreatable, are a mass of blood vessels and, being red, they absorb the laser beam strongly. It seals them so that the mark becomes less conspicuous. The normal cells on the skin’s surface, which don’t absorb much of the laser beam, act in the healing and help to conceal the mark.
