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.

Many people believe that watching television has resulted in lower reading standards in schools.
However, the link between television and printed books not as simple as that. In many cases, television
actually encourages people to read for example, when a book is turned into a TV series, its sales often
go up.
One study of this link examined six-year-old children who were viewing a special series of 15-minute
programmes at school. The series was designed to encourage the love of books, as well as to develop
the basic mechanical skills of reading. Each programme is an animated film of a children's book. The story
is read aloud while certain key phrases from the book appear on the screen, beneath the picture.
Whenever a word is read, it is also highlighted on the TV screen.
One finding was that watching these programmes was very important to the children. If anything
prevented them from seeing a programme, they were very disappointed. What's more, they wanted to
read the books which the different parts of the series were based on.
The programmes also gave the children more confidence when looking these books. As a result of their
familiarity with the stories, they would sit in pairs and read the stories aloud to each other. On each
occasion, the children showed great sympathy when discussing a character in a book because they
themselves had been moved when watching the character on TV.
5) What is the main idea of the book?
A.The simple link between television and books. B.The advantage of books over television.

6) When does television encourage people to read ?

C. When a book is made into a TV series . D.When a book appears on the screen.
7) How did children feel when viewing a special series of 15-minute program at school?
A. They felt excited. B. They felt bored.
C. They felt disappointed. D. They felt confident.
8) What kind of film is each program?
A. A story film of a children’s book. B. A documentary film of children’s life.
C. An educational film. D. An animated film of a children’s book.
9) What advantage did children have from this program?
A. They read books with more interest and confidence.
B. They became more sympathetic.
C. They made more friends.
D. They became more interested in watching TV.

IV.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 from 46 to 50.
Many people believe that watching television has resulted in lower reading standards in
schools. However, the link between television and printed books is not as simple as that. In many
cases, television actually encourages people to read ; for example, when a book is turned into a TV
series, its sales often go up.
One study of this link examined six-year-old children who were viewing a special series of 15-
minute programs at school. The series was designed to encourage love of books, as well as to develop
the basic mechanical skills of reading. Each program is an animated film of a children's book. The
story is read aloud and certain key phrases from the book appear on the screen, beneath the picture.
Whenever a word is read, it is also highlighted on the TV screen.
One finding was that watching these programs was very important to the children. If anything
prevented them from seeing a program, they were very disappointed. What's more, they wanted to read
the books which the different parts of the series were based on.
The programs also gave the children more confidence when looking at these books. As a result
of their familiarity with the stories, they would sit in pairs and read the stories aloud to each other. On
each occasion, the children showed great sympathy when discussing a character in a book because
they themselves had been moved when watching the character on television.
36. What is the main idea of the book?
A. The simple link between television and books.
B. The influence of television on reading books.
C. The advantage of books over television.

B. When children are watching an animated film on TV.
C. When a book is made into a TV series.
D. When a book appears on the screen.
38. How did children feel when viewing a special series of 15-minute program at school?
A. They felt excited. B. They felt bored.
C. They felt disappointed. D. They felt confident.
39. What kind of film is each program?
A. A story film of a children's book. B. A documentary film of children's life.
C. An educational film. D. An animated film of a children's book.
40. What advantage did children have from this program?
