Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35.
ill people still read books 100 years from now? A few years ago, many people would have said no. It seemed likely that computers

computer screen because it is less tiring to the eyes.
ill books in the future be exactly the same as the books you can buy today? The answer to that is no. In the future, you may only
need to buy one book. With this one book, you will be able to read novels, plays, and newspapers. It will look like today's books,
but it will be electronic.
ne of the people working on the book of the future is Professor Joseph Jacobson from Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

the page. When you want to read a different story, you can push the button again and a new story will quickly appear.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet Eo indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
from 31 to 35.
It is a common saying that we do not fully value a thing until we lose it. We often value the love and worth of a friend when he has
been taken from us by death more than when he was with us in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that we understand
Page 5
the greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone forever; and it is the sick and the ailing who realize the value of good health.
When we are young and strong, we cannot imagine what it is to be weak and ailing. We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for
granted. The organs of our body work so smoothly that we scarcely know we have lungs and liver, heart and stomach. But when any of these
gets upset and gives us pain and sickness, we learn by bitter experience what an unspeakable blessing it is to be well.
Loss of health makes us miserable, and a burden to ourselves and our friends. It cripples our efforts so that we cannot accomplish
many of the good and great things we might have done. It spoils our life. What must we do to keep our health?
We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain, wholesome simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands,
and strong drink tens of thousands. We must, when young, get plenty of sleep, which is “nature’s sweet restorer”, and not try to burn the
candle at both ends. We must live as much as possible in the open air and keep our rooms well ventilated. We must get sufficient and regular
physical exercise, and keep our bodies clean. And we must avoid bad habits and secret sins as we avoid the devil, and keep our thoughts
clean and our bodies pure. Our ideal must be the sound mind in the sound body.
Question 41: According to the passage, we often appreciate our friends _______________________.
A. only when they are with us B. only when they are good to us.
C. only when they passed away D. only when they live a long way from us.
Question 42: We do not take care of our health because _______________________.
A. we are always in good health B. most of the diseases can be cured nowadays
C. we are so accustomed to good health D. we are so busy making a living
Question 43: Poor health makes us _______________________.
A. useless B. unable to fulfil our expectations C. a shame to our friends D. fail to become famous
Question 44: According to the author, having plenty of sleep when we are young _______________________.
A. is wasting our time B. can help us regain our strength
C. may cause loss of health D. can reduce our vigour
Question 45: The best title for the passage is _______________________.
A. Health and Human Aspirations B. Health and Our Success

C. How to Keep Our Health D. The Value of Health
