Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Will people still read books 100 years from now? A few years ago, many people would
have said no. It seemed likely that computers and the Internet would replace books. Now,
however, most experts think that books are here to stay.
There are a number of reasons why computers will not replace books entirely. One reason
is that books on paper are much cheaper than computers. And books do not need a power source.
You can read a book for as long as you want and wherever you want. You never have to worry
about losing power. Also, many people feel more comfortable reading words in a book than
reading words on a computer screen because it is less tiring to the eyes.
Will books in the future be exactly the same as the books you can buy today? The answer
to that question 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.
One of the people working on the book of the future is Professor Joseph Jacobson from
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Jacobson's electronic book will have a small
button on the side. When you press the button, words will instantly appear on the page. When
you want to read a different story, you can push the button again and a new story will quickly
appear.
26. The phrase “are here to stay” in the first paragraph mostly means ………… .
A. “are useless”

B. “won’t come”
C. “are nearby”
D. “won't disappear”
27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Books will disappear completely sooner or later.
B. In the future, computers will replace paper books completely.
C. Reading words on computer screens is tiring to the eyes.
D. Reading today’s books needs a power source.
28. What will the book of the future look like?
A. It will look like a book you buy today. B. It will look different from today's books.
C. We don't know what it will look like.
D. It will look like a computer.
29. The button on the side of the electronic book is used ………… .
A. to turn a light on and off
B. to make the book more beautiful
C. to turn the power on and off
D. to change what you read
30. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. How to use an electronic book.
B. Why a power source is important.
C. The book of the future.

When I opened the first "Body Shop" in 1976, my only object was to earn enough to feed my

children. Today "The Body Shop" is an international company rapidly growing all around the
world. In the years since we began I have learned a lot. Much of what I have learned will be
found in this book, for I believe that we, as a company, have something worth saying about how
to run a successful business without giving up what we really believe in.
It's not an ordinary business book, nor is it just about my life. The message is that to succeed in
business you have to be different. Business can be fun, a business can be run with love and it
can do good. In business, as in life, I need to enjoy myself, to have a feeling of family and to feel
excited by the unexpected. I have always wanted the people who work for "The Body Shop" to
feel the same way.
Now this book sends these ideas of mine out into the world. I'd like to think there are no limits to
our "family", no limits to what can be done. I find that an exciting thought. I hope you do, too.

IV. Read the passage and choose one correct answer for each question.
It is often said that books are always good friends and reading is an active mental process.
Unlike TV, books make you use your brain. By reading, you think more and become smarter.
Reading improves concentration and focus. Reading books takes brain power. It requires you to
focus on what you are reading for long periods. Unlike magazines, Internet posts or e-Mails that
might contain small pieces of information. Books tell the whole story". Since you must concentrate
in order to read, you will get better at concentration. Many studies show if you do not use your
memory; you lose it. Reading helps you stretch your memory muscles. Reading requires
remembering details, facts and figures and in literature, plot lines, themes and characters.
Reading is a good way to improve your vocabulary. Do you remember that when you were
at elementary school you learned how to infer the meaning of one word by reading the context of
the other words in the sentence? While reading books, especially challenging ones, you will find
yourself exposed to many new words.
Reading is a fundamental skill builder. Every good course has a matching book to go with
it. Why? Because books help clarify difficult subjects. Books provide information that goes
deeper than just classroom discussions By reading more books you become better informed and
more of an expert on the topics you read about. This expertise translates into higher self-esteem.

lazy sisters did nothing.

her fairy godmother appeared and told Cinderella that she could go to the ball- but to return
home by midnight.
So she went to the ball in a beautiful dress in a wonderful coach. She danced with the prince but
at midnight she ran back home, leaving one of her shoes on the floor. The prince wanted to see

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Will people still read books 100 years from now? A few years ago, many people would have said
no. It seemed likely that computers and the Internet would replace books. Now, however, most
experts think that books are here to stay.
There are a number of reasons why computers will not replace books entirely. One reason is that
books on paper are much cheaper than computers. And books do not need a power source. You
can read a book for as long as you want and wherever you want. You never have to worry about
losing power. Also, many people feel more comfortable reading words in a book than reading
words on a computer screen because it is less tiring to the eyes.
Will books in the future be exactly the same as the books you can buy today? The answer to that
question 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.
One of the people working on the book of the future is Professor Joseph Jacobson from

Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Jacobson's electronic book will have a small
button on the side. When you press the button, words will instantly appear on the page. When
you want to read a different story, you can push the button again and a new story will quickly
appear.
