similar organization. Most charitable organizations rely on unpaid volunteers, and thousands of
Americans and British people give many hours of their time to doing some form of social work
or organizing fund- raising events to support the work. Volunteering is especially popular in the
US and the reasons this may be found in (32)______ American values such as the Protestant

change their condition if they try hard enough.
In the US young people over 18 can take part in AmeriCorps, a government program that

Parents whose children show a special interest in a particular sport have a difficult decision to
(31) ______ about their children’s career. Should they allow their children to train to become top
sportsmen and women? For many children it (32) ______starting very young and school work,
going out with friends and other interests have to take second place. It’s very difficult to explain
to a young child why he or she has to train for 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 (33) ______ from
the government for the very best young sportsmen and women. If this help cannot be given, it
means that it is the parents that 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 understandably concerned that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport

(34)_____ 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

is as keen for the meeting to go well as you are. It is what makes his or her job enjoyable.
The secret of a good interview is preparing for it. What you wear is always important as it
creates the first impression. So (32)________ neatly, but comfortably. Make sure that you can

deal with anything you are asked. Prepare for questions that are certain to come up, for example:
Why do you want to become a nurse? What is the most important quality a good nurse should
have? Apart from nursing, what other careers have you considered? What are your interest and
hobbies?

The growth of population has its problems as we shall see. As there are more and more mouths
(31)_____, there comes a great strain (32)_____ the resources of a country; this is real in the case

Many people have forgotten what the world was like before TV. But today it has become an
integral part of our lives. No medium can compare with TV as a means of information,
entertainment and education. TV now plays such an important role in so many people’s lives that it
is essential for us to try to decide (31)_______ it is bad or good.
First of all, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a (32)_______ cheap
one. For a family of 4, for example, it is more convenient as well as cheaper to sit comfortably at
home than to go out. They don’t have to pay for expensive tickets. All they have to do is to turn on
TV and they can see films, political discussions and the latest exciting football matches. Some
people say that this is fist where the danger lies. The TV viewers need do nothing: they (33)______
no choices, they’re completely passive and don’t even use their legs.
TV, people often say, informs about current events and the latest developments in science and
politics. A lot of good films, music programs have appeared recently on TV. (34)_______ here
again there is a danger. We get to like watching TV so much that it begins to dominate our lives. A
friend of mine told me that when his TV set broke he and his family suddenly found that they had
much more time to do things.
The most important thing which is really criticizing is poor quality of the programs and its
harmful effect on children. For example the film “Natural Born Killers” teaches children to kill and
there was one accident in France when a group of teenagers kill their parents.
There are many arguments for and against TV. I think we must understand that TV in itself is
neither good (35)______ bad. TV is as good or as bad as we make it.

The latest addiction to trap thousands of people is Internet, which has been (31) ______ for broken
relationships, job losses, financial ruin and even one suicide. Psychologists now recognize Internet


Addiction Syndrome (IAS) as a new illness that could cause serious problems and ruin many lives.
Special help groups have been set up to of sufferers help and support.
IAS is similar to (32) ______ problems like gambling, smoking and drinking : addicts have dreams
about Internet; they need to use it first thing in the morning; they lie to their partners about how
much time they spend online; they wish they could cut down, but are unable to do so . A recent
study found that many users spend up to 40 hours a week on the Internet; (33) ______ they felt
guilty, they became depressed if they were (34) ______ to stop using it.
Almost anyone can be at risk. Some of the addicts are teenagers who are already hooked on
computer games and who find it very difficult to resist the games on the Internet. Surprisingly,
however, psychologists (35) ______ that most victims are middle-aged housewives who have never
used a computer before.

Many parents believe that they should begin to teach their children to read when they are
(31)________ more than toddlers. This is fine if the child shows a real interest but forcing a child
could be counter-productive if she isn't ready. Wise parents will have a (32) ________attitude and
take the lead from their child. What they should provide is a selection of stimulating toys, books and
other activities. Nowadays there is plenty of good (33) ________available for young children, and
of course, seeing plenty of books in use about the house will also (34) ________them to read.
Of course, books are no longer the only source of stories and information. There is also a huge range
(35)_______ videos, which can reinforce and extend the pleasure a child finds in a book and are
equally valuable in helping to increase vocabulary and concentration. Television gets a bad review
as far as children are concerned, mainly because too many spend too much time watching
programmes not intended for their age group.

One of the most important (31) _______ of a standardized test is time. You'll only be allowed a
certain number of minutes for each section, so it is very important that you use your time (32)
_______. The most important time strategy is pacing yourself. Before you begin, take just a few


seconds to survey the test, noting the number of questions and the sections that looks easier than the
rest. Then, make a rough time schedule based on the amount of time (33) _______ to you. Mark the
halfway point on your test and make a note beside that mark of the time when the testing period is
half over. Once you begin the test, keep moving. If you work slowly in an attempt to make fewer
mistakes, your mind will become bored and begin to wander. You'll end up making far more
mistakes if you're not concentrating. If you take too long to answer questions that stump you, you
may end up (34) _______ out of time before you finish. So don't stop for difficult questions. Skip

them and move on. You can come back to them later if you have time. A question that takes you
five seconds to answer counts as much as one that takes you several minutes, so pick up the easy
points first. (35) _______, answering the easier questions first helps build your confidence and gets
you in the testing groove. If you're a little ahead, you know you're on track and may even have a
little time left to check your work. If you're a little behind, you have several choices. You can pick
up the pace a little, but do this only if you can do it comfortably.

Probably the most famous film commenting on twentieth-century technology is Modem Times,
(31)_______ in 1936. Charlie Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a reporter who, while
interviewing him, happened to describe working conditions in industrial Detroit. Chaplin was

told that healthy young farm boys were lured to the city to work on automotive assembly lines.
Within four or five years, these young men’s health was ruined by the stress of work in the
factories.
Scenes of factory interiors account for only about (32)______ of the footage of Modern Times,
but they contain some of the most pointed social commentary as well as the most comic
situations. No one who has seen the film can ever forget Chaplin vainly trying to keep pace with
the fast-moving conveyor belt, almost losing his mind in the process. Another popular scene
involves an automatic feeding machine brought to the assembly line (33)_______ workers need
not interrupt their labor to eat. The feeding machine malfunctions, hurling food at Chaplin who is
strapped into his position on the assembly line and cannot escape. This serves to illustrate
people’s utter (34)______ in the face of machines that are meant to serve their basic needs.
Clearly, Modern Times has its faults, but it remains the best film treating technology within a
social context. It does not offer a radical social message, but it does (35)______ reflect the
sentiments of many who feel they are victims of an over-mechanized world.

How men first learnt to creat words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a (31)
_____ . All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express
thoughts and feelings, actions and things so that they could communicate with each other; and that
later they agreed (32) _____ certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those
sounds, and which could be written down. These sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are
called words. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these
thoughts in words that appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use
of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can (33)
_____ his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can
(34) _____ men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully, (35) _____ they
will make our speech silly and vulgar.

are acid rain, car exhaust fumes and oil spills.
Factory chimneys give (31)_________ smoke that contains sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.
These gases combine with the moisture in the atmosphere to (32)_________ sulfuric acid and
nitric acid. When it rains, these acids dissolve in the rain and turn it acidic. Acid rain is thought
to be the worst pollution problem of all. It has (33)_________ aquatic life by turning many lake
into lifeless bodies of water. In these areas, there is no limestone in the rocks to neutralize the
acid rain naturally. One remedy is to pump limestone into the acidic lakes. (34)_________, it is
not possible to do this on a large enough scale to save all the lakes.
Car exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide and lead which are highly poisonous. In big cities,
the exhaust fumes build (35)_________ and pose a health hazard to human beings.
Pollution of the sea by oil threatens marine life. Much of the oil comes from ships that clean their
fuel tanks while at sea. Offshore oil wells also discharge vast amounts of oil into the sea.
