correct answer to each of the questions
People in the UK enjoy fewer years of good health before they die than the citizens of most
comparable European countries as well as Australia and Canada, a major report shows. While life
expectancy has improved by 4.2 years in the UK over the two decades, other countries have improved
faster. In 2010, Spain topped the league. Its people could expect 70.9 years of healthy life - before
disease and disability began to take a toll. Second came Italy, with 70.2 years and third was Australia,
on 70.1 years. In the UK, we can expect 68.6 healthy years of life.
Hunt said the UK was a long way behind its global counterparts and called for action by local
health commissioners to tackle the five big killers - cancer, heart disease, stroke, respiratory and liver
diseases. Drinking and drug use have been the main issues behind the worsening of the UK's ranking in
early deaths among adults aged 20-54. In 2010, drugs were the sixth leading cause of death in this age
group and alcohol was 18th - up from 32nd and 43rd place respectively 20 years earlier.
Hunt will on Tuesday announce a strategy to tackle cardiovascular disease, which he says could
save 30,000 lives a year. "Despite real progress in cutting deaths, we remain a poor relative to our
global cousins on many measures of health, something I want to change," he said. "For too long we
have been lagging behind and I want the reformed health system to take up this challenge and turn
this shocking underperformance around.” However, the problem is only in part to do with hospital
care - much of it is about the way we live. Our diet, our drinking and continuing smoking habits all play
a part, which assumes its responsibilities on 1 April.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
There are several ways to measure how often men and women appear in news photos. One way
is to think about all the photos together as making up one big crowd of people and estimating what
share are women versus men. Women made up 33% of all the 53,067 individuals identified in news
post images, while men made up the other 67%.
Another way to look at the data is to examine the mix of people who appear in each image.
Across the 22,342 posts with photos containing identifiable human faces, more than half of them
exclusively showed men, while less than a quarter showed exclusively women. The remaining images
show at least one man and one woman.
All 17 news outlets included in the study showed more men than women in news images on
Facebook during the study period. The share of individuals who were identified as women by the
model ranges from 25% to 46%, by outlet.
While these findings are striking, there is no perfect benchmark or “true ratio” for how often
men and women should be portrayed in news images on social media. Yes, the U.S. population is
divided nearly in half, male versus female. But, for example, all the representational coverage of
professional football teams would return results overwhelmingly dominated by male faces. Coverage
of the U.S. Senate – currently 25% female – might do the same. In addition, the analysis did not
address whether the content of the news stories that accompanied the images was more focused on
men or women.
The analysis also reveals other ways that men are more prominent in news images on Facebook.
In photos that showed two or more people, men tend to outnumber women. And men’s faces take up
more space when shown, with the average male face being 10% larger than the average female face
across all photos with people.
