Passage
Many adults frequently ask children what they want to be when they grow up.
People have been asking you this question ever since you were a little kid. As a
child goes through the education system, the question changes but
. People will ask you what you want to major in at
college, where you want to go to school and what you want to do with the rest
of your life. At times youll feel like saying: How in the world should I know?
Im only 18!
While making a career decision is tricky,
dont get too stressed out. Try to decide on
something you would like to do, not just
something you think will offer you job
security, a fat pay check, or prestige. All of
those are subject to change. Do what you
want to, and dont worry about the rest!
Another thing to remember is that your decision will not be permanent.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the average college graduates
change their jobs once every three years and change career fields two or three
times in their lifetime. Non college graduates change their careers even more
often. So, dont assume that your first career decision will determine your job
for the rest of your life.

Passage
Violence in schools has been increasing at unprecedented rates. Last year, there
were many incidents of school violence in the news. The situation is starting to
get out of control and we need to act to bring it under control. Most people
believe the juvenile penal system can solve the problem of increasing violence.
But it cannot! We are currently putting more and more juveniles in jail, but
school violence is not decreasing.
Why dont many children feel safe at school?
Most schools do not have plans to prevent
violence. They only have plans to expel those
who are violent and threaten others. It is time to
put money into preventing violence. We must
learn to intervene before violence breaks out.
One of the several ways to do this is to have immediate and easy access to
mental health services for all troubled youth and their families. And we can also
consider early screening of children with behavior problems to determine the
services that are needed.
While we can continue to spend money on trials and jails, we must also put
more money into prevention through

(B) But once things are removed from your hard drive

Communication skills are the key to help you find the path toward a successful
career and personal life. If you dont improve your communication skills sooner
or later, the road toward happiness will be very bumpy and you may even be
thrown off course by others who are upset by your lack of communication
skills. Whatever your personality type is, you must find a way to communicate
effectively with others who have different personalities.
Lets think about potential communication problems and solutions by
examining one personality type. People with a very direct personality make up
10% of the population. These people are usually our leaders and bosses. They
have clear set goals and have a strategy to achieve them with as little fuss as
possible. They do not question the reason for
doing something.
Sometimes they are (a) like / likely to make
decisions so quickly without considering things
thoroughly.
Direct people are ambitious people who want to advance in their careers. They
hate wasting time and they speak openly, honestly and (b) fastly / fast . Their
meaning is clear and without nuance. Reflecting their professional life, their
personal life is based on how certain people can help or hurt them.
In dealing with other people, what do you think are the main problems you
would have with a direct person? What solutions can you think of for these
problems?

Passage
Ones emotions are a form of information. Others can tell a lot about you by
understanding your emotions. And others can also influence you greatly by how
well they use their own emotions. Comprehending and using emotions is what
emotional intelligence is all about. We need emotional intelligence for many
things, among which making good decisions and reacting to others stick out the
most.
You are in a shop and you are just about to
buy, but then you decide not to buy
because you dont like the salesmans
attitude. So you walk away. You have used
your emotional intelligence, and the
salesman has failed to use his.
When trying to convince others its often better to use your emotions not your,
often loud, voice. There are countless times when we try to reach others and
make them understand something. At those times, nothing works better than
appealing to the others emotions. To convince another person, show respect
and show youre concerned and caring.
Some professors lower their voices when they are about to deliver the most
important information of their lectures. They dont shout it out. They show
respect for their students and speak softly. There is no need to carry a big stick.
Students will know the professors are respecting them and they will tune in.
This is using the emotional intelligence.

We are tied down by lifes routines and we often forget to value the many good
things in life. Most importantly, it seems we have forgotten how to laugh. We
only laugh at sitcoms or other comedy shows on TV these days. But if you
really want to remind someone (A) on / of the good things in life, gag gifts are
perfect to (special, someone, giggle, make).
Gag gifts are neither stupid nor useless. Rather they are
laugh medicine. They will make our day by reminding
us that we need not be so serious about our life. They
will shine on our dull day. For every person a gag gift is
better than typical gifts such as flowers, candies, etc.
Have you ever heard of the Farting Bear? It works by remote control. Put him
on a table and people will smile and say, How cute he is! And as soon as the
words are out of that persons mouth, you use the remote control to trigger a

bears
(C) for / to ear, the person will no doubt break out in a full force roar of
laughter. And the laughter will continue as both of you see the bear glow red
blushing in embarrassment.
Gag gifts such as the Farting Bear are a good way to get people to put a smile
on their face.

Person History
Many scholars have this belief that advanced sailing techniques helped the
ancient empire of Greece rise to power in the eighth century B.C. (a) Greece is
located in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. This means that Greece was
right at the crossroads of many ancient shipping paths. (b) From Greece one can
head for Africa, the Middle East and even to the western tip of Europe.
In addition to its location, Greece is made
up of hundreds of small islands. Traveling
to and from these islands naturally
requires a boat. (c) The fact that the Greek
mainland is quite mountainous resulted in
its people living on its coasts. As farming
such a country is difficult, people must
turn to the seas for their livelihood, and in order to exploit the seas it is natural
to develop navigating skills. (d) There are other countries for whom necessity
was the mother of invention, and there are some modern-day parallels to Greece.
(e) Greece was amongst the first nations to build ships that could transport large
quantities of goods, and established ports in faraway places such as Persia and
India. As an important trading and shipping nation, Greece held tremendous
power over other civilizations in its time.

Passage
Without a high regard for yourself, life becomes difficult. When you believe
you will fail, you tend to avoid certain situations. By turning your back on lifes
challenges, you are never able to succeed. And then youre never able to build
your self-esteem. Its a vicious cycle.
The cycle must be stopped. Self-esteem is something you can develop. You
have to stop (a) to believe / believing that you are born either with it or without
it. In order to develop self-esteem, experts suggest you should concentrate on
the positive things in your life. Of course, if you lack self-esteem, you might
think that there are no positive things in your life. Thats just not true. Everyone
has something positive happening in his or her life. You must find it, focus on
it, and (b) go / going forward. Going forward means your confidence is
building because youre focusing on a positive thing, which slowly multiplies
into many positive things.
Having self-esteem will change your life. (A) You will
be able to face difficulties now instead of running away
from them. (B) Others will sense your new attitude. (C)
They will accept you for who you are. Telling others to
accept you the way you are is not being arrogant. (D) It
is a bigger problem that you go through life wanting to
be liked or (c) to fear / fearing others opinions of
you. (E)

The global health community is perplexed
because it is confronting a problem which may
turn into a disaster. The disease seems simple,
but they couldnt come up with a proper
medication for it. The disease is bird flu and it is
stressing the health community who fears it will
be the cause of countless deaths in the next few
years. At present, people with the disease have
only a fifty percent chance of surviving.
Terrorism is not the greatest threat to your
peaceful life. Everyone doctors, researchers,
and scientists agrees that it has the ability to
kill more people than any threat currently
confronting man.
The number of deaths due to the attack of this
disease has been relatively small so far, but that
doesnt mean it will remain the same. History
tells us another pandemic is on the way. It is
estimated one occurs every 30~40 years and we
are due for the next one right now. We need to
prepare and take concrete actions to protect
ourselves and our families.
The nature, movement and way of working of
this virus are mysterious. So far, human beings
have suffered from direct contact with infected
animals and their secretions. But the virus
evolves constantly and mutates into a new
deadly form as it passes from animals to human
beings.

More and more youths are being treated by
doctors for sleeping problems which prevent
them from getting adequate amounts of rest. An
increasing number of teens are also adopting
busy lifestyles and ignoring their biological need
for sleep. Adolescents need nine hours of sleep,
but those suffering from the disorders often get
much less. It has been shown by some
researchers that the average youth gets about
six and a half hours of sleep on a school night. A
few high school students often get a lot less
than six.
Experts also agree that adolescent sleep
disorders can be a result of irregular sleeping
patterns. Biologically youths are programmed to
stay up late and get up late. Unfortunately, that
is not the schedule of the schools in their life.
And teens try to catch up on their sleep during
the weekends, oftentimes sleeping into the
afternoon.
Adolescent sleep disorders can have negative
effects on memory and creativity, which in turn
could cause problems with learning abilities.
Furthermore, it affects their emotions causing
them to be unpredictably bad-tempered. Lastly,
the lack of sleep affects their ability to fight off
diseases because it weakens their immune
systems, leaving them susceptible to colds and
other viral infections.

Spyware allows other people to view your
computer system and see what you have been
doing and what you have stored on your
computer. It allows others to spy on you!
Spyware is so dangerous because you wouldnt
know even if it gathers information on you.
(C) The spyware will be watching you and then
peeping in and finally it will get installed in your
computer system. After the spyware registers
itself on your system, it will start damaging the
operation of programs and make your computer
run slow, making it not perform at its best.

Depression is widespread throughout society. It
can affect teenagers and seniors, males and
females, and people of any race.
While depression is not a normal part of the
aging process, there is a strong correlation
between depression and people who are
suffering from life-threatening diseases.
Tragically, the elderly suffering from depression
are often ignored since people tend to think their
feelings are natural and a normal part of aging.
However, clinical depression is never a normal
response; it is a serious medical illness that
should be treated at any age.
Though depression is a serious medical
condition, only 3% of the elderly treated for
mental health problems get professional help for
their condition. Many elderly dont think their
depression is serious enough for them to seek
professional help. Most elderly people feeling
depressed very often are merely treated by their
general practitioner, not a psychologist or
psychiatrist. But general practitioners are not
trained to deal with this disease.
But the good news is that this disease is
treatable. More than 80% of all people with
depression can be successfully treated with
medication, psychotherapy or a combination of
both.

We are tied down by lifes routines and we often
forget to value the many good things in life.
Most importantly, it seems we have forgotten
how to laugh. We only laugh at sitcoms or other
comedy shows on TV these days. But if you
really want to remind someone of the good
things in life, gag gifts are perfect to make
someone special giggle.
Gag gifts are neither stupid nor useless. Rather
they are laugh medicine. They will make our
day by reminding us that we need not be so
serious about our life. They will shine on our dull
day. For every person a gag gift is better than
typical gifts such as flowers, candies, etc.
Have you ever heard of the Farting Bear? It
works by remote control. Put him on a table and
people will smile and say, How cute he is! And
as soon as the words are out of that persons
mouth, you use the remote control to trigger a
disgusting sounding fart. The person who has
just remarked on the bears cuteness will look at
you puzzlingly. But as you grin from ear to ear,
the person will no doubt break out in a full force
roar of laughter. And the laughter will continue
as both of you see the bear glow red blushing in
embarrassment.

Many parts of the earth are impacted by
aggressive, hardy species spread either
knowingly or accidentally by humans. Nonnative species of plants or animals usually have
negative impacts on their new environment. Half
of the area of the islands of Hawaii has fallen
victim to this phenomenon. The Hawaiian
environment has been tragically altered by
foreign species.
For instance, the Indian mongoose which was
brought to Hawaii in the nineteenth century to
kill rats has greatly affected the bird population
in Hawaii. It has destroyed the nesting grounds
of many indigenous birds, threatening their
survival. Non-native species are now considered
the greatest threat to plants and animals after
habitat destruction. Non-native species are
increasing extinction rates at an alarming pace.
Can we reduce the destruction caused by nonnative species? How do humans usually help
species move from one region to another? Is it
possible that non-native species could have a
positive impact on a new environment?

. People with a faster

food faster than other people.
.
3. (A) help ,

. (B)

If you are dieting, you obviously want to eat
foods which your body will burn off or
metabolize the fastest. Metabolism refers to how
ones body digests and makes energy out of
food. People with a faster metabolism can eat
more because they burn up food faster than
other people. Certain foods can increase ones
metabolism and also help burn up calories
faster.
What are the foods which will increase your
metabolism helping you lose weight faster? The
best metabolism enhancing foods are those
which have a lot of protein in them. For instance,
there are meats such as lean beef, chicken
breast and fish. Milk, cheese and eggs also have
a lot of protein in them. So foods with a lot of
these ingredients will boost your metabolism.
Not only will these high quality proteins help you
boost your metabolism, but many natural
carbohydrates will also do the same thing.
Wheat, barley and oats are all good sources of
natural carbohydrates. Vegetables and fruits are
also high in carbohydrates.
Spices which flavor your food are also good for
increasing your metabolic rate. Spices such as
hot peppers raise your body temperature.
Raising your bodys temperature results in a
higher metabolism, and therefore more calories
are being burned. So now you have another
reason for choosing those spicy dishes you like
so much.

Without a high regard for yourself, life becomes
difficult. When you believe you will fail, you tend
to avoid certain situations. By turning your back
on lifes challenges, you are never able to
succeed. And then youre never able to build
your self-esteem. Its a vicious cycle.
The cycle must be stopped. Self-esteem is
something you can develop. You have to stop
believing that you are born either with it or
without it. In order to develop self-esteem,
experts suggest you should concentrate on the
positive things in your life. Of course, if you lack
self-esteem, you might think that there are no
positive things in your life. Thats just not true.
Everyone has something positive happening in
his or her life. You must find it, focus on it, and
go forward. Going forward means your
confidence is building because youre focusing
on a positive thing, which slowly multiplies into
many positive things.
Having self-esteem will change your life. You will
be able to face difficulties now instead of
running away from them. Others will sense your
new attitude. They will accept you for who you

Human motivation is a response that our body
has to some form of either internal or external
stimulation. In simple terms, it means our body
is reacting to stimuli. Stimuli are all those things
going on inside and outside a person. When we
are hungry, a stimulus, we become motivated to
eat. The goal is to end hunger so we are

Magazines as a form of media were first
introduced in the 1970s. At first they were used
to debate the political, economic and social
issues of the time. People bought magazines to
keep abreast of important issues of the time,
expanding their knowledge and allowing them to
form opinions. As time passed people saw that
magazines could be used for entertainment.
Issues and topics did not need to be so serious.
These days magazines deal with innumerable
topics ranging from movies and fashion to
politics and business. Every age group and
everyone with the least interest in any subject
can find a magazine they would enjoy. Unlike
the uses of the early magazines, many people
nowadays use them to ease either their curiosity
or boredom. All these magazines are usually
available on the basis of a subscription, paying
in advance for future monthly or weekly editions
of the magazine which will be delivered to a
persons house. Since magazines serve many
purposes and deal with so many topics they are
bound to remain an important part of our lives.
