Read the following text then answer the questions that followed by circling its corresponding letter marked A, B, C or D from 38 to 42.

Sometimes you know things about people the first time you see them, for example, that you want to be friends with them or that you don’t trust them. But perhaps this kind of intuition isn’t as hard to explain as it may seem. For instance, people give out their body language signals all the time. The way you hold your body, head and arms tells people about your mood. If you hold your arms tightly at your sides, or fold them across your chest, people will generally feel that you are being defensive. Holding your head to one side shows interest in the other, while an easy, open posture indicates that you are self-confident. All this affects the way you feel about someone.

Also, a stranger may remind you of a meeting with someone. This may be because of something as simple as the fact that he or she is physically similar to someone who treated you well or badly. Your feelings about a stranger could be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place where you were happy as a child. Since even a single word can bring back a memory such as that, you may never realize it is happening.

What does the word “open” in the passage most closely mean?

A. unlimited

B. enlarged

C. relaxed

D. not shut

Spending your free time on the Internet can be fun. You can chat, share photos with friends, and play online games. But some people are addicted to the Internet. They just can’t turn it off.

Being online for many hours at a time does not mean you have a problem. The
Internet is very useful. Online, you can pay your bills, buy clothes, and read the news.
There are many good reasons to spend time online. However, people with an Internet
addiction are online too much. They don’t spend time with their friends and family.
Instead, they spend their time chatting with their Internet friends, people they have never
met in real life. Some also play online games all day or night. Some people with Internet
addictions even leave their jobs so they can spend even more time online! People with
Internet addictions don’t just go online to shop, have fun, or do work. People who have
this problem often go online because they want to escape the stress and problems in their
lives. Many internet addicts stop caring about their real lives, and focus only on their
online lives.

One way Internet addicts can get help is by using special software. This software
controls how much time someone can spend online. It tells the computer to turn off the
internet after a certain amount time. This helps people focus on real life. The software’s
goal is to teach people to use the Internet for good reasons and not just as an escape.
15. People with Internet addiction spend most of their free time on the Internet.
16. Internet addiction causes problems in one’s daily life.
17. Most Internet addicts play online games all day or night.
18. Using a special software is a way of helping people stop their Internet addiction.
19. What is the main idea of the article?
A. People should not spend time on the Internet

Househusbands

Dear Editor,

I read with interest the article on American families. In general I agree with it, but there are some important things it left out. It didn't tell the reader much about the life of a househusband. It's not an easy life. I know, because I'm now a househusband myself. A househusband has to change many of his ideas and his ways.

First of all, he has to change the way he thinks about time. Before I was a househusband, I worked full-time for the New York Times. I was a reporter, and time was always important. We had to finish our article quickly and give them to the editor. Everyone was always in a hurry. This is the way, many other men work, too. Businessmen, lawyers, bankers, and doctors all have to work quickly.

At home it's different. The househusband cannot be in a hurry all the time. If you rush around, you will make everyone unhappy! The children will be unhappy because they don't understand. For them, time is not important. Your wife will be unhappy because the children are unhappy. You will be unhappy, too, because they are all unhappy. So you have to learn to slow down. That is the first and most important rule for a househusband.

There is something else the househusband must learn. You must learn to show how you feel about things. At work, men usually do not talk about feelings. If they do, people think they are strange. So, many men are not used to telling anyone about their feelings. They do not know how to talk about their anger, worries, or love. But children need to know how you feel. They need to know how much you love them. If you are angry, they need to know why. Your wife also needs to know about your feelings. If you do not say anything, your family may get the wrong idea. Then there may be serious problems.

People talk a lot about househusbands these days. Usually they talk about men doing the housework, the cooking, cleaning, and shopping. But in my opinion, these are the easiest things to learn. It was much harder for me to change the way I think and the way I act with my family. I think, other men will also find this harder, but, like me, will find it necessary if they want to have a happy family!
