No matter where you go, it is  (91)  that you will be able to find someone living there who plays, or at least knows  (92)  , chess. But the  (93)  of chess remain shrouded in mystery, and various writers have  (94)  the invention of the game to virtually every one of the great early civilizations.  \nA careful  (95)  at the competing claims, however, reveals that India at around 550 A.D. may in fact be the strongest  (96)  . A Persian poem written in 600 A.D. declares that chess came to Persia from India, and before 550 A.D. there are no specific references to the  (97)  in any literature whatsoever.  \nIn India, chess was called chaturanga, meaning “four parts.”The name  (98)  to the four army divisions which were standard at the time: foot soldiers, cavalry, chariots, and elephants. Such terminology confirms  (99)  all doubt that chess was  (100)  an abstract representation of war from the outset.

Both seem to prevent the sticky accumulations ofa brain protein that ultimately  (101)  to nerve degeneration and memory loss.  \nResearchers have developed a vaccine to stop the damaging protein, beta-amyloid,  (102)  piling up as plaque in the brain. The vaccine,  (103)  sprayed into the nose, instructs the immune system to produce antibodies  (104)  attach to the rogue proteins and neutralize them. When the researchers tested the vaccine on mice that had  (105)  genetically altered to simulate the onset of Alzheimer’s, the rate of plaque formation  (106)  by 75 percent.  \nIt may be years before a nasal vaccine passes through clinical trials,  (107)  another study points to a more immediate, and appetizing, potential therapy. A second group of researchers found  (108)  diets rich in curcumin, a compound in the curry spice turmeric, reduced the accumulations of betaamyloid protein in rat brains. Rats  (109)  with curcumin also performed  (110)  on memory-dependent maze tests than rats on normal diets. The finding may explain why in India, where foods are loaded with turmeric, just 10 percent of people over 65 contract Alzheimer’s – the lowest incidence of the disease worldwide.  \n101. a. lead c. has  \nb. due d. result  \n102. a. when c. that  \nb. which d. from  \n103. a. which c. was  \nb. when d. that  \n104. a. and c. that  \n[b.](b. to)[ to](b. to) d. or  \n[105. a.](105. a. to)[ to](105. a. to) c. undergone  \nb. them d. been  \n106. a. plunged c. rose  \nb. down d. falling  \n107. a. but c. because  \nb. while [d.](d. so)[ so](d. so)  \n108","cbCaikTLJypJHSUW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikTLJypJHSUW","pdf",633969,13,"English","# Practice Test 1\n## Cloze-Passage 1\n## Cloze-Passage 2\n# Practice Test 2\n## Cloze-Passage 1\n## Cloze-Passage 2","[{\"question\":\"What type of questions are included in these ECPE practice materials?\",\"answer\":\"They use cloze-passage format where each item includes several options to fill numbered blanks in a passage.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics do the passages cover in Practice Test 1?\",\"answer\":\"Practice Test 1 includes a passage on the early history of chess and another on research related to Alzheimer’s disease.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics are introduced in Practice Test 2?\",\"answer\":\"Practice Test 2 includes a passage on the early history of Las Vegas and another on global warming.\"}]","ECPE All-Star Practice Tests - Cloze Passage Practice Tests | PDF",1790757970,33]
