Passage 3
Inside a can the food is protected from the things that would make it spoil. These are bacteria, the tiny little living plants that are everywhere around us. Bacteria, sometimes called germs, are so tiny that we can see them only under a microscope. But they are so powerful.
Like all living things, bacteria need food to grow. When they grow they multiply. A few bacteria become many in a matter of minutes. When bacteria settle on food, they make changes in it. These changes are what we call spoiling.
To keep food from spoiling, we must first kill any bacteria that may already be in it. Heat and cooking do this. Next we must keep any bacteria in the air away from the food. So we pack it into cans as airless as we can make them. We seal the cans tight. With no bacteria in the food and no air

The word ―sport‖ first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during their time the best ones can earn a lot of money.
For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than 30,000 pounds a year. The stars earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than50, 000 in a year. Of course, only few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals, like golf, tennis and motor-racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sport. An advertisement for sports equipment does not simply say ―Buy our things‖. It says: ―Buy the same shirt and shoes as …‖ Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or a photograph of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.
16. What is the meaning of the word ―sport‖ today according to the passage?C A. Anything that people do in their free time.
