I also try my best in whatever I do in order to be a good example for my brothers. The experience I’ve had in taking care of my brothers has prepared me for my own family in the future.

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer:

Body postures and movements are frequently indicators of self-confidence, energy, fatigue, or status. Cognitively, gestures operate to clarify, contradict, or replace verbal messages. Gestures also serve an important function with regard to regulating the flow of conversation. For example, if a student is talking about something in front of the class, single nods of the head from the teacher will likely cause that student to continue and perhaps more elaborate. Postures as well as gestures are used to indicate attitudes, status, affective moods, approval, deception, warmth, arid other variables related to conversation interaction.

The saying "A picture is worth a thousand words" well describes the meaning of facial expressions. Facial appearance - including wrinkles, muscle tone, skin coloration, and eye color-offers enduring cues that reveal information about age, sex, race, ethnic origin, and status.

A less permanent second set of facial cues including length of hair, hairstyle, cleanliness, and facial hair-relate to an individual's idea of beauty. A third group of facial markers are momentary expressions that signal that cause changes in the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, cheeks, nose, lips, and chin, such as raising the eyebrows, wrinkling the brow, curling the lip.

Some facial expressions are readily visible, while others are fleeting. Both types can positively or negatively reinforce the spoken words and convey cues concerning emotions and attitudes.

26. Gestures ________________________.

a. can do nothing with a conversation

b. can clarify the meaning of verbal messages.

c. may interrupt the flow of a conversation

d. can end a conversation more quickly than usual

a. go on   b. give up   c. put off   d. throwaway

a. a picture of a face is more valuable than a thousand words

b. a picture is more important than a thousand words

c. facial gestures can convey a lot of meanings

d. he has just bought a picture with a thousand words on it

29. How many categories of facial expressions are mentioned?

a. 2   b. 3   c. 4   d. 5

a. cannot convey emotions

b. cannot reinforce spoken words

The Test of English as a Foreign Language (or TOEFL for short) evaluates the potential success of an individual to use and understand Standard American English at a college level. It is required for non-native applicants at many English-speaking colleges and universities. Additionally, institutions such as government agencies, businesses, or scholarship programs may require this test. A TOEFL score is valid for two years and then is deleted from the official database. Colleges and universities usually consider only the most recent score. The TOEFL test is a registered trademark of Education Testing Service and is administered worldwide. The test was first administered in 1964 and has since been taken by nearly 20 million students. Since its introduction in late 2005, the Internet-Based test (iBT) has progressively replaced both the computer-based (CBT) and paper-based (PBT) tests. The iBT has been introduced in with the United States, Canada, France, Germany, and Italy in 2005 and the rest of the world in 2006, with test centers added regularly. Although the demand for test seats was very high, and candidates had to wait for months, it is now possible to take the test within one to four weeks in most countries. The four-hour test consists of four sections, each measuring mainly one of the basic language skills (although some tasks may require multiple skills) focusing on language used in an academic, higher-education environment. Note-taking is allowed during the iBT. The test cannot be taken more than once a week.

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answers to the questions:

Education is not an end, but a mean is to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life. In some modern countries it has, for some time, been fashionable to think that by free education for all - whether rich or poor, clever or stupid - one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a large number of people with university degree; they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor; we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our house, we should get terrible diseases in our own towns.

In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to our brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one’s work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.

26. The writer of the passage thinks that _________________.

a. education can settle most of the world’s problems

b. free education for all probably leads to a perfect world

c. all the social problems can’t be solved by education

d. free education won’t help to solve social problems

27. The writer wants to prove that _____________.

a. people with high education refuse to do what they think “low” work

b. our society needs free education for all

c. a farmer is more important than a professor

d. our society needs all kinds of jobs

28. According to the passage _____________.

a. work with hands is low work

b. we can’t regard work with hands as low work

c. work with hands is dirty and shameful

d. work with hands is the most important

29. The purpose of education is _____________.

a. to choose a system of education

b. to build a perfect world

c. to let everyone receive education fit for him

d. to prepare children mainly for their future work

30. The passage tells us about _____________ of education.

a. the type   b. the means   c. the system   d. the value

Choose the sentence which has the closest meaning to the original one:

b. We would go on holiday if we had enough money.

c. We wouldn’t go on holiday if we didn’t have enough money.

a Bicycles should used for short journeys.

c. Bicycles should be used for short journeys.

d. Bicycles be used for short journeys.

33. They don’t have money now, so they can’t have a drink.

b. If they didn’t have money now, they couldn’t have a drink.

c. They could have a drink unless they had money

d. If they had money now, they could have a drink.

a. The students being very difficult have to learn many words.

b. The students have to learn many words being very difficult.

c. The students have to learn many words which are very difficult.

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer:

Preparation is a key to a successful interview. Does the idea of going to a job interview make you feel a little nervous? Many people find that it is the hardest part of the employing process. But it is not really true. The more you prepare and practise, the more comfortable you will feel. You should find out as much as possible about the company before you go to the interview. Understand the products that they produce and the services that they provide. It is also good to know who the customers are and who the major competitors are. “Practice makes perfect”. It will also make you feel more confident and relaxed. So, practise your answers to common questions. Make a list of questions to ask, too. Almost all interviewers will ask if you have questions. This is a great opportunity for you to show your keenness, enthusiasm, and knowledge.

Make a great impression. The interview is your chance to show that you are the best person for the job. Your application or résumé has already exhibited that you are qualified. Now it is up to you to show how your skills and experience match this position and this company. The employer will be looking and listening to determine if you are a good fit. He/she will be looking for a number of different qualities, in addition to the skills that you possess. To make the best impression, dress appropriately; express your strengths; arrive early, by about 10-15 minutes; be enthusiastic; shake hands firmly; be an active listener; sit up straight and maintain eye contact; and ask questions.

27. __________ is the hardest part of the employing process.

a. the job   b. the interview

c. the interviewer   d. the preparation

28. What does the writer advise you to practise?

a. Asking and answering questions related to the job.

d. Meeting some customers and competitors.

a. dressing style and punctuality

c. eye contact with the interview

d. résumé and letter of application

30. Which should not be shown during your interview?

a. Punctuality   b. A firm hand shaking

c. Shortcomings   d. Enthusiasm
