THE CHINESE HOROSCOPE AND YOUR PERSONALITY
What kind of person are you? Are you friendly or shy? Maybe you're romantic. You might be artistic.
Where does your personality come from? Many people believe that your time of birth influences your
personality. The Chinese horoscope is one tradition that connects your personality with the year of your
birth.
According to the Chinese horoscope, each year is represented by a different animal. There are twelve
animals in the horoscope, and they repeat every twelve years. For example, the year 2000 was the year of
the dragon, and the year 2012 will be the year of the dragon again. In order after the dragon, the next
animals on the calendar are the snake, the horse, the sheep, the monkey, the rooster, the dog, the pig, the
rat, the ox, the tiger, and the rabbit.
These horoscope animals influence the personality of someone born that year. Were you born in 1983?
That was the year of the pig. You are honest and affectionate. Were you born in 1982, the year of the dog?
Then you are hardworking, but also a little pessimistic. If you were born in 1984, the year of the rat, you
are charming and generous. If you were born in 1985, the year of the ox, you are calm, sincere, and
2

stubborn. 1986 was the year of the tiger. Tigers have a good attitude toward life and are loyal to their
friends.
Are you honest like a pig or generous like a rat? Are you stubborn like an ox or quiet like a rabbit?

DRAGON
This giant animal has the skin of a reptile, the body of an elephant, the head of a horse, and the tail
of a lizard. Among its many other charms, it breathes fire. Its not your average household pet, but perhaps
it should be. Some cultures think a dragon is a wise creature that brings good luck. Others think it is a
dreadful monster that destroys things.
Dragons are important in the myths of many Asian countries. They are wise and powerful creatures.
They are associated with the gods and the emperors. They can give advice, and they represent good luck.
However, they can also become angry when people dont respect them. Then, they can become destructive.
Dragons might cause big storms or damage peoples houses. It is important to treat dragons well to prevent
their anger.
In myths of Western countries, dragons are powerful, magical creatures, but they arent usually
good. In many stories, they are evil creatures, and people fear them. They are large animals that resemble
scary snakes with legs. They breathe fire. People dont try to treat dragons well; they try to kill them.
5

In some stories, dragons are good and wise. In others, they are evil monsters. Whether a dragon is
good or evil, it is always a symbol of strength and magic. Long ago, some superstitious people believed

Television is the chief medium used by national advertisers. The 100 largest advertisers spend an
average of 65 percent of their advertising budgets on television. Food companies spend about 75 percent of
their budgets on television, and companies that make games and toys spend about 90 percent.
A main advantage of television to advertisers is that it brings sight, sound, and action directly to
consumers in their homes. Advertisers can explain and demonstrate their products to viewers who are
enjoying a TV program and cannot easily avoid the commercials. In addition, network television reaches a
8

vast, nationwide audience at a low cost per viewer. For example, a 30-second commercial on a TV network
may cost $1 million. But if 50 million viewers watch the commercial, the advertiser pays only 2 cents for
each person who sees the ad.
The majority of TV commercials consist of short spot announcements, most of which last 30 seconds.
The commercials are usually run in groups of three to six. Television networks and stations generally limit
commercial time to about 10 minutes per hour during prime time and 16 minutes per hour during most
other broadcast times. Prime time refers to the evening hours, when TV programmes draw the largest
audience.
36. It costs food companies .............. to advertise their products on
television.
A. three-quarters of their advertising budgets
B. over half of their income
C. 90 percent of their budgets
D. over 65 percent of their capital

Unlike the eye the ear has no lid, therefore noise penetrates without protection. Loud noises
instinctively signal danger to any organism with a hearing mechanism, including human beings, in response,
heartbeat and respiration accelerate. In fact, there is a general increase in functioning brought about by the
flow of adrenaline released in response to fear.
Because noise is unavoidable in a complex, industrial society, we are constantly responding in the
same ways that we would respond to danger. Recently, researchers have concluded that noise and our
response may be much more than an annoyance. It may be a serious threat to physical and psychological
health and well - being, causing damage not only to the ear and brain but also to the heart and stomach. We
have long known that hearing loss is America's number one nonfatal health problem, but now we are
learning that some of us with heart disease and ulcers may be victims of noise as well.
