There are two kinds of people in the world. Those of the first kind are born idlers (游手好閑者), taking interest in nothing. It seems what they live for is to pass time idly. They simply don’t know why they have to do so, nor will they bother to ask. The other kind are those who take things seriously and never wish to idle away their life. But only a part of the second group are eager enough to make success. All the others fail to make enough effort to make their dreams come true. 
Why do things so happen to them? What are the reasons?
I later find out that some people are determined. They are “igniters” that catch fire of their own, giving light and heat. But that’s not the case with others. They may be fuels but not igniters. As pieces of wood or coal, they need a match or a lighter to make them burn so that their energy can be released to give off light and heat.
The majority of people need some igniter to light them. Thus igniter becomes a must for those people to succeed. Unless a suitable igniter comes their way, they will always remain idle like cold unused firewood or coal.
Fortunately, such an igniter is not difficult to meet. One may find it in an instructive book, a film story, a few words of a close friend, some advice of a good teacher, a pleasant journey, or an unexpected love.
Any of these, coming at the right time, can serve as an igniter to start one’s enthusiasm for learning or for a better career, to turn him from a passive state of waiting to an active state of pursuing, to lend him strength to go ahead bravely. In that case, what he has prepared for years will be quickly turned into fruitful reality.
Such an igniter may turn up of itself, but most likely we have to find it ourselves. Never let a chance slide away, for it is the key to your success.
小題1: According to the text, “________” are the persons that can light many people so that their energy can be released to give off light and heat.
A．idlersB．ignitersC．fuelsD．serious people
小題2: According to the writer, what do most people definitely need to succeed? 
A．Storing a lot of energy.
B．Great interest in everything.
C．An igniter coming at the right time.
D．Wonderful dreams about a bright future.
小題3: The writer writes the article to _________.
A．describe two kinds of people
B．encourage people to find chances to succeed
C．praise those who work hard
D．make fun of idlers

Parents whose children show a special interest in a particular sport feel it very difficult to make a decision about their children’s careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sports men and women? For many children it means starting school work very young, and going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place. It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing.?
Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and women. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development—and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc. can all be very expensive.?  
Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training young that you can reach the top as a successful sports person. It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.?
小題1:This article is most probably taken from________.?
A．a(chǎn) letter
B．a(chǎn)n advertisement?
C．a(chǎn) personal diary
D．a(chǎn) newspaper article?
小題2:According to the passage, parents whose children show a special interest in a sport _______.
A．feel uncertain if they should let their children train to be sports men or women
B．try to get financial（財(cái)務(wù)的）support from the government for their children’s training
C．have to get medical advice from doctors about training methods?
D．prefer their children to be trained as young as possible
小題3:The underlined phrase“to take a second place”means_________.?
A．to repeat the activities at some other place?
B．to become less important?
C．a(chǎn)ll things considered, they are of poor quality?
D．to happen again

Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.
Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt（嘗試）to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.
It is difficult to conclude about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.
小題1:What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?
A．Love.B．Politeness.C．Joy. D．Thankfulness.
小題2:The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .
A．show friendliness to strangersB．be used to hide true feelings
C．be used in the wrong placesD．show personal habits
小題3:What should we do before attempting to “read” people?
A．Learn about their relations with others.
B．Understand their cultural backgrounds.
C．Find out about their past experience.
D．Figure out what they will do next.
小題4:What would be the best title for the test?
A．Cultural Differences B．Smiles and Relationship
C．Facial ExpressivenessD．Habits and Emotions

If you haven’t seen or heard anything about Road Rage in the last few months, you’ve probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.
While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, 4,1907 people died on the highway last year. Of those deaths, the agency estimates that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behaviour.
Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have certain theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of the cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space.; and the problem is magnified in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, street levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage.
You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!
Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are susceptible (easily influenced) to Road Rage, the key to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver’s rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.
小題1:The first sentence in Para 1 implies that__________.
A．one may be angered by media reports and wants to avoid them.
B．the media coined the term “Road Rage” only a few months ago.
C．Road Rage has received much media coverage in the last few months.
D．people not interested in the media know little about recent happenings
小題2:The underlined “spell” in Para3 means___________.
A．relieveB．causeC．spreadD．prevent
小題3:Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?
A．Talking while driving.
B．Driving at high speed.
C．Sounding the horn when passing.
D．Shouting at another driver.
小題4:The last paragraph is intended to ___________.
A．tell people how to deal with Road Rage.
B．inform people how aggressive drivers could be.
C．show people how to control themselves when angry.
D．warn people against eye contact with another driver

It is common and usual to see people freak out when they face challenges in their life. We all pass in different life problems and challenges. No one is free of life problems. Only a dead man faces no problem. As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere.

Spring is coming, and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs. Competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices. Whatever we are wearing，our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not.
A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos (紋身）nose rings, or certain dress styles. It is true you can’t judge a book by its cover, yet people do “cover” themselves in order to convey (傳遞)certain messages. What we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. Just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances， so do companies. Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept.
Others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. Most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees (雇員),because those people represent the companies to their customers.
As a hiring manager I am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. There are plenty of well-qualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. Even though I am open-minded, I can’t expect all our customers are.
There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.
小題1:Which of the following is the newspaper editor’ opinion according to Paragraph 2?
A．People’s appearances carry messages about themselves.
B．Customers’ choices influence dress standards in companies.
C．Candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.
D．Strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace.
小題2:What can be inferred from the text?
A．Candidates have to wear what companies prefer for an interview.
B．What to wear is not a matter of personal choice for companies.
C．Companies sometimes have to change to respect their candidates.
D．Hiring managers make the best impression on their candidates.
小題3:Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．Employees Matter
B．Personal Choices Matter
C．Appearances Matter
D．Hiring Managers Matter
小題4:The author’s attitude towards strange dress styles in the workplace may best be described as        .
