Book - From A To B
We are all born with unlimited potentials, unique talents and abilities and we all
deserve the very best in life. However, most of us achieve far less than what we are
capable of because most of us think that we are not good enough to do certain
things, we are not intelligent enough to succeed in life.
When people succeed, it is because of hard work, but luck has a lot to do with it too.
Success without some luck is almost impossible. However, hard work can invite
good luck.
Nothing can replace hard work but working hard also means you’re preparing
yourself for opportunity. Opportunity very often depends on luck.
How many of the great inventions and discoveries happen by a lucky mistake or a
lucky chance?
Do you have the desire to succeed? If you want to succeed, you need to have a strong
desire to do so. Absolutely nothing is impossible and there are no limits to what you
can be, do or have.

Many people have a natural ability but they can’t succeed. You may have a natural
ability, but it is not enough. You can’t rely on your natural ability alone if you want
to succeed. If you want to succeed, you should work hard.
Self-confidence and knowledge are also two equally important factors for success.
You need to feel you can accomplish a task. But even if you have a great deal of self-
confidence, you can’t succeed without knowledge. With knowledge and self-
confidence you have a better chance of success.
Some believe that only people who earn a lot of money are successful. They believe
that money equals success, but they forget that there are many famous
humanitarians who are not rich.
When we think of history, there are few people that we remember simply because
they were rich. If history is the judge of success, then money surely isn’t
everything.
There are four easy steps that you need to follow in order to achieve success in your
life:
Only action can bring you the results. Nothing can happen without acting. You are
the one who makes and builds your future.
6. There are four easy steps that you need to follow ________ order to achieve
success in your life.

UNIT 3. STORIES
Mary says that all of her friends have a cell phone, but Mary’s mother
doesn't want to buy her one. Mary’s mother doesn't want Mary to play video
games either. What is more, the Internet scares her.
She says, “If Mary has a cell phone, how do we know whom she is talking to?
Video games are bad for her. The Internet is dangerous and uncontrolled. It’s
like having a gun in the house. We should just ban her from using the
computer, and I'm not buying her a cell phone until she is eighteen. This is
the only way we can be sure that May is safe."
Mary’s father disagrees with Mary’s father. Although he agrees that there
are some dangers to it, he likes the Internet, and finds it to be very useful. He
says, “The trouble is that we can’t stop Mary from using the Internet, as this
means to ban her from gaining some useful information. What is more, I like
video games. I think that, when played in moderation, they are fun.
Obviously, it is not good to play them without restraint or self-control.
Finally, I think Mary needs a cell phone. We can’t take these things away.”
"Yes I can talk," says the man answering the call, "You're shopping are you?
That's nice." The listening men smile to each other.
"You want to order those new carpets? Okay… And they'll include the
curtains for an extra five thousand? Sure, why not?"
"You want to book that week on Necker Island? The price is twenty-two
thousand? Sounds attractive! You want a fortnight? Okay, honey!"
"Okay, sugar, see you later… Yes, love you too," says the man, ending the
call. He looks at the other men and says, "Whose phone is this anyhow?"
ONCE IN A BLUE MOON
We often use some phrases without knowing the meaning behind them. One
of these phrases is “once in a blue moon.”
People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very
often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid smoking
because smoking is dangerous, but smokes a cigarette “once in a blue
moon.”
While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows its meaning. The
first thing to know is that the moon itself is never actually blue. This is just
an expression. The phrase “blue moon” actually has to do with the shape of
the moon, not the color.
Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a
blue moon is a very rare event. This fact has led people to use the expression
“once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in their lives.

Some people live for excitement. They die of boredom when life becomes too
predictable. Risk-takers love intense and complex sensations and experiences.
Risk-taking is the price risk-takers pay for certain kinds of activities that satisfy
their need for novelty, change and excitement.
Some people believe that success in life comes from taking risks. Others believe that
success is impossible without careful planning. Some people prefer to try new
things and take risks. Others like to do only what they already do well.
People who take risks are optimists. Risk-takers cannot imagine that something
may happen to them. Risk-takers may plan for potential problems, but the outcome
is out of their hands.
Those who aren’t risk-takers, like to do just those things that they know. They
believe that it is better do one thing and do it well, and not try anything new. They
don’t like to take a risk with new things. They like to focus their attention on one
subject and do it well.
Perhaps we must all take risks in our lives, but these must be calculated risks but we
must remember that even with a careful plan, changes occur. Where things go
against plan, we must be ready to change their direction.
2. Some people die ________ boredom when life becomes too predictable.
6. Those who aren’t risk-takers don’t like to take a risk ________ new things.
7. They like to focus their attention ________ one subject and do it well.
8. Where things go ________ plan, you must be ready to change their direction.

UNIT 5. PROGRESS
Who can deny the importance of the past? People often make decisions based on
their knowledge of the past. But can we plan the future by the past? Is the past more
important than the present? Some people think that we can’t be locked into the
past. We should live in the “Now”!
People, attitudes and politics determine what happens, not the past. People can
change. People never continue to hate one another just because they used to hate
one another in the past.
People, the weather, and politics can change in any direction. Sometimes it’s
almost impossible to predict the direction of the change by studying the past.
1.People often make decisions based ________ their knowledge of the past.
3. People, the weather, and politics can change ________ any direction.
4. Can we predict the direction ________ the change by studying the past?

UNIT 6. STORIES
The hammer may be the oldest tool we have record of. But the hammer is not
only the oldest human artifacts ever discovered, but it is the greatest one as
well. Its simplicity, power, and usefulness make the hammer so great.
Do you know what keeps a hot air balloon flying? The same principle that
keeps food frozen in the open chest freezers at the grocery store allows hot
air balloons to fly. It's a very basic principle: Hot air rises and cold air falls.
So while the super-cooled air in the grocery store freezer settles down
around the food, the hot air in a hot air balloon pushes up, keeping the
balloon floating above the ground.
A hot air balloon has three major parts: the basket, the burner, and the
envelope. The basket is
where passengers ride. The burner is positioned above the passenger's heads
and produces a huge flame to heat the air inside the envelope. When the air
inside the envelope is heated, the balloon rises.
The pilot can control the up-and-down movements of the hot air balloon by
regulating the heat in the envelope. To ascend, the pilot heats the air in the
envelope. When the pilot is ready to land, the air in the balloon is allowed to
cool and the balloon becomes heavier than air. This makes the balloon
descend.
Before the balloon is launched, the pilot knows which way the wind is
blowing. This means that
the pilot has a general idea about which way the balloon will go. But,
sometimes the pilot can actually control the direction that the balloon flies
while in flight.
A man in a hot air balloon is lost. He sees a man on the ground and reduces
height to speak to him.

UNIT 7. EXPERIENCE
The most important, and sometimes the hardest lessons we learn in life come from
our participation in different situations.
The answer is: “No one”! You can only learn these things by dealing with situations
every day. The best way to learn about life is by experiencing it yourself.
Experiencing your own triumphs and disasters is really the only way to learn how to
deal with life.
Of course, learning through the advice of others can help you in life. The advice of
people you trust can be very valuable. They can tell you about their own
experiences. Then you can consider your own wants and needs and decide what you
should do.
Pretty soon, you will have more experience of your own. Experience will enable you
to manage your thoughts and emotions. Your thoughts and feelings will determine
your choices.
Complete the following sentences.
1. The most important lessons we learn in life come ________ our participation
in situations.
4. Who will teach you how to fall ________ love and get married?
5. You can only learn these things ________ dealing with situations every day.
7. Pretty soon, you will have more experience ________ your own.

When children are young they believe that their parents are always right. But when
they get older they realize there are other views. Parents are usually eager to pass
on their values to their children. But should children always believe what their
parents do? Sometimes young people have to take their own way to what they
believe in.
The principal difference between generations is in how they relate to others. Your
generation is more tolerant of other people’s choices and less concerned about
what others think. You think that people should have a lot of choices. Your parents’
generation is much more concerned about what people think of them.
Your parents didn’t have time to analyze their feelings or think about themselves.
They were too busy trying to get along. You have more time to think about
yourselves and your place in the universe.
Find your own way to what you believe in, but keep in mind that parents may limit
your freedom only in the name of safety. You have to realize that your parents’
advice can be very helpful because they have already had similar experiences. You
can use their advice to decide what you want to do with your problems.
3. Parents are usually eager to pass _________ their values ________ their
children.
4. Young people have to take their own way ________ what they believe
________ .
10. Your parents may limit your freedom only ________ the name ________
safety.

UNIT 9. STORIES
Jack doesn’t like to ask people for help. But it is hard for him to perform daily
activities on his own. He is almost 13, yet he is no larger than a 5-year-old
boy. Jack has trouble keeping his balance and can’t walk very far. When he
uses a wheelchair, he can’t push it himself.
Fortunately, Jack has a wonderful service dog named Max. A service dog is a
dog that has been trained to assist someone who has a physical problem.
Max lets Jack lean on him when he walks. He also pulls his wheelchair and
turns lights on and off. When Jack drops something, Max picks it up. He even
pulls his socks off at night. Max also helps Jack with everyday tasks at
school. He carries his books from class to class in a special backpack.
Trying to make Jack less dependent on other people, Max helps him to lead a
fuller life and be more active. Because of Max, Jack doesn’t have to ask
people for help. Max brings him closer to other kids.
An old blind man was sitting on a busy street corner begging for money. On a
cardboard sign, next to an empty cup, he had written: 'Blind - Please help'.
No-one was giving him any money.
A young advertising writer walked past and saw the blind man with his sign
and empty cup, and also saw the many people passing by.
The advertising writer took a thick marker-pen from her pocket, and re-
wrote the sign, then went on her way. Immediately, people began putting
money into the cup.
After a while, when the cup was overflowing, the blind man asked a stranger
to tell him what the sign now said. "It says," said the stranger, "It's a
beautiful day. You can see it. I cannot."
A blind was waiting at a busy road for someone to offer to guide him across,
when he felt a tap on his shoulder.
"Excuse me," said the tapper, "I'm blind - would you mind guiding me
across the road?" The first blind man took the arm of the second blind man,
and they both crossed the road.
The first blind man was the jazz pianist George Shearing. He is quoted as he
said after the event, "What could I do? I took him across and it was the
biggest thrill of my life."
A man and a young teenage boy checked in to a hotel. The two receptionists
noted the quiet manner of the guests, and the pale appearance of the boy.
Later the man and boy ate dinner in the hotel restaurant. The staff again
noticed that the two guests were very quiet, and that the boy seemed
disinterested in his food.
After eating, the boy went to his room and the man went to reception and
asked to see the manager. The man was taken into the manager's office.
The man explained that he was spending the night in the hotel with his
fourteen-year-old son, who was seriously ill. The boy had to undergo
therapy, which would cause him to lose his hair. The boy planned to shave
his head that night. The father said that he would shave his own head too, in
support of his son. He wanted the staff to be respectful when the two of them
would come to breakfast with their shaved heads. The manager assured the
father that he would inform all staff and that they would behave
appropriately.
The following morning the father and son entered the restaurant for
breakfast. There they saw the restaurant staff with shaved heads.
Many years ago two salesmen were sent by a British shoe manufacturer to
Africa to investigate and report back on market potential.

Playing games is both fun and useful, because games teach us the skills we need in
life. Playing games also teaches us how to deal with other people. We learn about
teamwork. Game playing teaches us how to follow rules to achieve something. We
find out that if we want to reach a goal, we need to know the rules.
Everyone likes to play games. Games are important at any age. Games help keep
your mind sharp, learn new things, and maintain social skills. Modern research has
shown that senior citizens can continue to grow brain cells by exercising their
mind.
There are different types of games. Some games can teach you a lot. Games that ask
questions, for example, will show you what you don’t know. It is always easier to
learn something when you realize you don’t know it. It is always interesting to
watch people. The types of games may change and get more complex as we grow
up, but our enjoyment never changes. Never stop playing!

CLAUDE MONET
Claude Monet, a 19th-century French painter, was the most famous artist
associated with the movement known as Impressionism. Monet was born on
November 14, 1840, and even as a young man he was known for producing
small portraits in charcoal.
In 1858 Monet met the artist Eugène Boudin, who became his mentor and
introduced Monet to painting outdoors. In 1859, at the age of 19, Monet
moved to Paris to become a professional artist. Most artists of his time tried
to imitate nature realistically, but in his landscape painting Monet instead
sought to portray nature as it appeared to him. In particular, he was
interested in how light affects the ways that we perceive color.
PHILADELPHIA
A New Jersey artist named Jane Golden started a program pairing troubled
youth with artists to paint murals on a few buildings around the city. From
this small project, something magical happened. The young people involved
helped to create magnificent pieces of art, but there were other, perhaps
more important benefits. The young people learned to get along with many
different kinds of people during the various steps required to paint and
design a mural. They learned to be responsible, because they needed to
follow a schedule to make sure the murals were completed.
As a result of its success, the mural program created by Jane Golden has now
become the nation’s largest public art program and a model for other cities
throughout the country seeking to help troubled youth.
Once upon a time a famous art museum searched the world over for the best
paintings it could find. After a long search, the museum found a beautiful
Old Master painting – young people playing in a wood. The directors were
only too glad to pay millions for this painting because they were captivated
by its beauty and elegance. How delightfully the maidens' hair and mouths
were drawn, how perfectly the hands and arms of the youths, how lifelike
the bare feet on the forest floor. But the curator of the museum was the
happiest one of all, for he had now become guardian and protector of a
famous work by a famous painter. "Every time I look at that painting," he
would say, "I see new beauties and excellences. Just look at these leaves
here, the branches from this tree! My soul is delighted with the greatness of
it all."
Needless to say, this wonderful painting was the most popular exhibit at the
museum. Everyone enjoyed its beauty frankly and openly. Children loved to
see the happy figures playing with joy; the young people were impressed by
the freshness and beauty of the figures; those of mature years stood
astonished at the excellent technique; the old loved the feeling of cozy
intimacy produced by the scene of innocent pleasure.
"We regret such an unfortunate mistake," the curator told the museum's
patrons. "This painting is not art; it is a fake. This painting is a lie."
At first the public was saddened to lose sight of such a popular painting, and
a few mild protests were raised, but eventually concern for the painting was
pushed aside by other more pressing concerns and it was forgotten and life
continued.
Only the museum curator ever saw the painting now, hanging in the dim
light of the basement storeroom wall away from public view. All that was
heard of it was the curator's comment. "Every day I see new defects and
ugliness in this painting,” he used to say . "Just look how false the sun on the
leaves looks, how ugly the clouds there, and how awkward that boy's
position in the dance. How we were impressed by this obvious fake.” And
finally, shaking his head to show his regret, he concluded, "What we did was
foolish and shameful!”

Many of our actions have enriched our lives, bringing us longer life spans, better
health, more material wealth and greater mobility. As we develop our technology,
we demand more from our planet. We must remember that the land is ecologically
fragile. If we don’t protect it, human life cannot continue.
Our planet gives us everything we need, but natural resources are not endless. We
are taking everything we want without giving anything back. As a result, many
natural resources are disappearing on our planet every day.
Many areas suffer from too much development. With growth comes pollution. We
should realize that we need to respect the Earth and try to preserve it. If we don’t,
what kind of future we will have? If we do not respect our environment now, it will
continue to get worse. We will not have the same quality of air and natural beauty
to admire.

DANGEROUS ANIMALS
When we are young, we learn that tigers and sharks are dangerous animals.
We are scared of them because they are big and powerful. As we get older,
however, we learn that sometimes the most dangerous animals are also the
smallest animals. In fact, the animal that kills the most people every year is
one that you have probably killed yourself many times: the mosquito.
While it may seem that all mosquitoes are biters, this is not actually the case.
Male mosquitoes eat plant nectar. On the other hand, female mosquitoes
feed on animal blood. They need this blood to live and produce eggs. When a
female mosquito bites a human being, it transmits a small amount of saliva
into the blood. This saliva may or may not contain a deadly disease.
Because a mosquito can bite many people in the course of its life, it can carry
diseases from one person to another very easily. Two of the most deadly
diseases carried by mosquitoes are malaria and yellow fever. More than 700
million people become sick from these diseases every year. At least 2 million
of these people will die from these diseases.
Many scientists are working on safer and better ways to kill mosquitoes, but
so far, there is no sure way to protect everyone in the world from their
deadly bites. Mosquito nets can be placed over beds to protect people against
being bitten. These nets help people stay safe at night, but they do not kill
any mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes have many natural enemies like bats, birds, and certain kinds of
fish. Bringing more of these bats, birds, and certain kinds of fish into places
where mosquitoes live might help to cut down the amount of mosquitoes in
that area. This is a natural solution, but it does not always work very well.
Mosquitoes can also be killed with poisons or sprays. Even though these
sprays kill mosquitoes, they may also harm other plants or animals.
DEFENSE MECHANISMS
Some people say that the best defense is a good offense; an octopus,
however, would disagree. In addition to being one of the strangest and most
beautiful creatures in nature, the octopus has some of the most inventive
and effective defense mechanisms.
While other animals have teeth, horns, or claws to help defend them from
predators, the octopus concentrates its energy on hiding from its attackers.
When it wants to get away, the octopus has an impressive arsenal of tricks at
its disposal.
One of the octopus’s defense mechanisms is its ability to change color, much
like a chameleon. Most animals get their skin color from chemicals in the
skin. These chemicals might contain yellow, orange, red, brown, or black
pigments, and the amount of each pigment present in the skin determines
an animal’s color. While most animals are always the same color, some
species of octopi can control the amount of each color pigment in their skin
cells, allowing them to change color. This ability allows them to blend in
with their environment.
