EXERCISE 4 Read the following passage. and choose the correct answers (A, B, C or D)
for the questions.
If you have decided to be a doctor or an engineer, it's easy to get information about how to
become one. It's more difficult if you want to be an actor. Nobody can say, "First you do this,
then you do that, and one day you're an actor". But I can tell you some things that will help.
Learning to be an actor usually starts at school. Drama lessons and clubs can teach students
many things, including different ways of acting and how to write their own plays. Writing
helps you understand a lot about acting. But even more important is learning to work in a
group with other actors.
However, school lessons and clubs are only one part of learning about being an actor. Find
small theatre groups near where you live - and don't worry about being the star! It doesn't
matter if you only have one word to say in a play, it will still help you improve. You need to
be on stage as much as possible, in a variety of different types of plays.
When you finish school, you should think about studying at university. Of course, it's possible
to be an actor without going to university, but doing a theatre course is a good idea for some
people. These courses may improve your acting, and also help you learn about a variety of
subjects, such as business, history, music and dance.
1. The word "their" in paragraph 2 refers to __________.
A. lessons' B. clubs' C. students' D. schools'
2. What advice does the writer give in paragraph 3?

EXERCISE 5 Read the following passage. and choose the correct answers (A, B, C or D)
for the questions.
 The latest addiction to trap thousands of people is the Internet, which has been blamed
for broken relationships, job losses, financial ruin, and even suicide. Psychologists now
recognize Internet Addiction Syndrome (IAS) as a new illness that could cause serious
problems and ruin many lives.
IAS is similar to other problems like gambling, smoking and drinking: addicts have
dreams about the Internet; they need to use it first thing in the morning; they lie to their parents
and partners about how much time they spent online; they wish they could cut down, but are
unable to do so. A recent study found that many users spend up to 40 hours a week on the
Internet. Some of the addicts are teenagers who are already hooked on computer games and
who find it very difficult to resist the games on the Internet.
1. According to the writer, internet addiction __________.
A. is not the same as gambling B. is not an illness
C. can lead to financial problems D. helps people kill time
