The questions number 7 - 9 are based on the following passage.

Infection caused by a bacterial organism (called Chlamydophila felis) is feline Chlamydial conjunctivitis. The most common signs of chlamydia in cats involve the eyes or upper respiratory tract (nose or throat), and only if the infection is left untreated does it spread to the lungs. Because chlamydia lives inside the body’s cells and cannot survive long in the environment, the spread of infection depends on direct or close contact with an infected cat. After infection, the incubation period (time between infection and development of clinical signs of disease) is between three and ten days.

The bacteria mainly infect the conjunctiva, which is the delicate membrane that lines the eyelids and covers the edges of the eyeball. The infection causes inflammation known as conjunctivitis. In a normal cat, the conjunctiva is not easily visible and is a pale salmon pink. Cats with conjunctivitis, the conjunctiva becomes swollen and red making it more very visible. The nictitating membrane or third eyelid at the inner corner of the eye may protrude partially in the eye. One or both eyes may be involved.

Affected cats initially have a watery discharge from the eye that quickly becomes thicker and is usually yellow or greenish in color. Eye discomfort and cats often cover the affected eye. Many cats remain bright and appear normal, but some may develop a fever or lose their appetite. After a day or two, runny nose and sneezing may also occur. In kittens, the infection can spread to the lungs and cause fatal pneumonia.

The questions number 10 are based on the following passage.

Measles, a childhood disease, has caused suffering to mankind for thousands of years. However, the search for an effective measles vaccine lasted two hundred years and has finally ended in success. Now, for the first time, measles is a preventable disease. You may ask, ”How is this important to children?” Every year measles kills twice as many Americans as polio does. More children die from measles than from any other common childhood disease. Also complications of some degree occur in about one child out of six. Most complication include pneumonia and ear disorders. Another after-effect of measles-brain damage is less common, but it can have such serious consequence that it deserves special attention. Brain damage due to measles sounds like something far away from our experience. In reality, it is not. Like other injury, damage to the brain can be very slight or very severe. It is quite possible that we have never seen or heard a child who has severe brain damage – the child would either have died or would be in an institution. However, in medical research a relation has been found between measles and such things as behavior problems, personality changes and dulling of metal ability. For example, a child may be bad-tempered or a little slow to learn after he has recovered from measles.

10. One of the important findings of the research on measles is that.....

A. children who have got measles may become difficult to handle because of their behavior.

B. in reality, there are no measles patients who get brain damage.

C. personality changes already occur at the time a child has measles.

D. measles can cause children to become physically handicapped.

E. measles is the first killer of childhood disease in the world
