That night as Easton walked home through the rain he felt very depressed. It had been a very bad
summer for most people and he had not fared better than the rest. A few weeks with one firm, a few days
with another, then out of a job, then on again for a month perhaps, and so on.



William Easton was a man of medium height, about 23 years old, "with fair hair and moustache and
blue eyes. His clothes, though shabby, were clean and neat but the holes in his shoes made it painful to
walk.


He was married. His wife was a young woman whose acquaintance he had made when he happened
to be employed with others painting the outside of the house where she was a general servant. Easton had
been in no hurry to marry for he knew that, taking good times with bad, his wages did not average a
pound a week. However, after going out for 18 months they were finally married.

different; the fear of being 'out' haunted him all the time.


He had started for Rushton and Co. on the previous Monday after having been idle for three weeks
and, as the house where he was working had to be done right through, he had congratulated himself on
having secured a job that would last till Christmas; but he now began to fear that what had happened to
Jack Linden - a master craftsman - might also happen to himself at any time. He would have to be very
careful not to offend Bill Crass in any way. He was afraid that the latter did not like him very much as it
was. He knew that Crass could get him the sack at any time and would not scruple to do so if he wanted
to make room for some pal of his.


Crass, the foreman, was quite without special abilities; he was of anything inferior to the majority
of the men he supervised. Even so, he pretended to know everything, and the vague references he was in
the habit of making to 'tones' and 'shades' and 'harmony' had so impressed Frederick Hunter that the latter
was completely taken in. It was by pushing himself forward in this way that Crass had managed to get
himself put in charge of the work.


Although Crass did as little as possible himself, he took care to work the others hard. Any man who
failed to satisfy him was reported to Hunter as being 'no good' or 'too slow for a funeral' and was then
dispensed with at the end of the week. Knowing this, all the workers feared and hated the wily Crass.
Some, by giving him pipefuls of tobacco and pints of beer, managed to stay in Grass's favour and often
kept their jobs when better men were dismissed.



As he walked home through the rain thinking of these things, Easton realized that it was not
possible to foresee what a day or even an hour might bring.


1. As he walked home, Easton felt depressed because_________.


A. it had been a bad summer for most people, including him B. he was afraid of losing his job
C. he had recently got married, despite his low wages D. his shoes were worn out and his feet were
hurting


2. The fourth paragraph mentions Easton's fear of being 'out'. This is a fear of_________.


A. being unemployed B. not having any money


C. having nowhere to live D. falling out with his wife
3. Crass got his position because Hunter thought he was good at_________.


A. using language B. managing other people


C. understanding colour schemes D. repairing or decorating houses
4. To keep his job, anyone working under Crass had to_________.


A. work hard B. give him presents


C. take care not to offend him D. make room for his 'pals' (friends)
5. Crass was_________.


A. a skilful worker but lazy B. not very skilful but hard working
C. a skilful man and a hard worker D. not very skilful and also lazy

That night as Easton walked home through the rain he felt very depressed. It had been a very bad
summer for most people and he had not fared better than the rest. A few weeks with one firm, a few days


with another, then out of a job, then on again for a month perhaps, and so on.


William Easton was a man of medium height, about 23 years old, "with fair hair and moustache and
blue eyes. His clothes, though shabby, were clean and neat but the holes in his shoes made it painful to
walk.


He was married. His wife was a young woman whose acquaintance he had made when he happened
to be employed with others painting the outside of the house where she was a general servant. Easton had
been in no hurry to marry for he knew that, taking good times with bad, his wages did not average a
pound a week. However, after going out for 18 months they were finally married.


That was a year ago. As a single man, he had never troubled much if he happened to be out of
work. He is always had enough to live on and pocket money besides, but now that he was married it was
different; the fear of being 'out' haunted him all the time.


He had started for Rushton and Co. on the previous Monday after having been idle for three weeks
and, as the house where he was working had to be done right through, he had congratulated himself on
having secured a job that would last till Christmas; but he now began to fear that what had happened to

the habit of making to 'tones' and 'shades' and 'harmony' had so impressed Frederick Hunter that the latter

University Entrance Examination is very important for Vietnamese students. High school graduates
have to take it and get high results to be admitted to universities. The pressure on the candidates remains
very high despite the measures that have been taken to reduce the heat around these exams, since
securing a place in a state university is considered a major step towards a successful career for young
people, especially <i><b>those </b></i>from rural areas or disadvantaged families. In the year 2004, it was estimated
that nearly one million Vietnamese students took the University Entrance Examination, but on average
only one out of five candidates succeeded. Normally, candidates take three-exam subjects, and each lasts
180 minutes, for the fixed group of subjects they choose. There are four fixed groups of subjects i.e.
Group A: Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry; Group B: Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry; Group
C: Literature, History, and Geography; Group D: Literature, Foreign Language, and Mathematics.


In addition to universities, there are community colleges, art and technology institutes; professional
secondary schools, and vocational schools which offer degrees or certificates from a-few-month to
two-year courses.


According to Vietnam's Ministry of Education and Training, there are currently 23 non-public
universities, accounting for 11% of the total number of universities. These non-public universities are
currently training 119.464 students, or 11,7% of the total number of students. The government is planning
to increase the number of non-public universities to 30% by 2007.
