Part 3     Reading

I. Read the passage and choose the best answer to each question.

A.         If parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius, they will cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which some parents make. Generally, the child will understand very well what the parents expect, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to the children.

However, if parents are not unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are hopeful in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well especially if the parents are very supportive of their children.

Michael Smiths is very lucky. He is very fond of music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons. Although Michael's father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if the is unwilling.

Michael's friend, Winston Maier, however, is not so lucky. As both his parents are successful musicians, they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are, and so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. "When I was at your age, I used to win every competition I entered," Winston's father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.

1.             The main idea of the passage is ________.

A. how parents should make a child a musician.                                 C. what differences there are between two kinds of parents.

B.         Edward is entering a university and has to decide what foreign language to study, since he needs 12 credits to graduate. He studied Japanese by himself in high school and even had a chance to use some for it when he took a trip to Tokyo. He enjoyed his trip very much and thought that maybe someday he would like to work for an international company based in Japan.

The reason why the university requires students to study a foreign language is that they feel that it makes the students more educated. Edward does not feel that this should be the main reason for studying a foreign language. He thinks that being able to communicate with people from different cultures are far more important than just impressing people with your knowledge.

After considering the possibilities of studying German or French so that he could travel in Europe with little difficulty, he finally makes up his mind to continue his study of Japanese. He feels that being good at Japanese would make it much easier for him to be accepted if he decides to work and live in Japan for some time.

1.             One of the reasons for Edward to study a foreign language is that he______.

A. has just graduated from a high school.                                                             C. has just decided to enter a university

C. wants to impress people with his knowledge                                    D. needs certain credits to graduate

2.             Which of the following has nothing to do with his final decision to continue his study of Japanese?

A. The university requires students to study that language.

B. The university thinks that a foreign language makes the students more educated.

C. Edward studied Japanese by himself and used it when he traveled in Tokyo.

D. He hopes that some day he may work for a company in Japan.

3.             For Edward, to ______ is the least important reason to learn a foreign language.

A. travel in a foreign country                                                                                    C. work and live in another country

B. show people that he is very learned                                                   D. communicate with people from other cultures

4.             Edward first considers the possibilities of studying German and French, but he chooses Japanese. This shows that he______.

A. is afraid of difficulties                                                                                                           C. does not like German and French

B. is practical for his study and his future job                                       D. only likes day dreaming

5.             The best title for this passage is "______"

                A. Traveling in Europe        B. How to Study Japanese                C. Working and Living in Japan       D. Choosing a Foreign Language

 

C.         Do you ever give excuses that are not really true? When and why? It seems that everybody tells lies - well, not big lies, but what we call "white lies". The only real questions are about when we lie and who we tell lies to. A recent study found that in conversation people frequently stretch the truth. Here are some ways they do it.

             People often lie because they want to hide something from someone. For example, a son doesn't tell his parents that he is dating a girl because he doesn't think they will like her. Instead, he says he is going out with the guys.

Sometimes people lie because they don't want to do something. For example, someone invites you to a party. You think it will be boring so you say that you are busy and can't come.

Often we stretch the truth to make someone feel good. For example, your friend cooks dinner for you, but it tastes terrible. Do you say so? No! You probably say "Hmm, this is delicious!".

Other times we don’t want to tell someone bad news. For example, you have just had bad day at work, but you don't want to talk about it. So, if someone asks about your day, you just say everything was fine.

Telling "white lies" isn't really bad. Most of the time people do it because they want to protect a friendship.

1.             Why do people often tell lies?

                A. Because they like it.                                                                                                                                                                       B. Because they feel amused

                C. Because they don’t like the person who asks them about their stories.               D. Because they want to hide something.

2.             Sometimes people lie by_________.

                A. giving false excuse         B. saying something quite new                         C. telling stories    D. making someone feel good

3.             A son doesn't want to tell his parents that he is dating a girl because he __________ so he tells lies.

                A. is ashamed         B. wants to keep it secret C. is afraid that his parents don't like her        D. is very reserved

4.             Your friend  cooks  you a terrible dinner but you say you like it because_______.

                A. you want him / her to cook for you more.                                 C. you like telling lies

                B. you want to encourage him/ her                                                                  D. you want to protect your friendship.

5.             Everyone sometimes tells lies because________.

                A. it is very good  B. it isn't really all bad        C. it makes him/ her fell happier      D. it is a habit of human beings.
