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 following questions.
Nowadays it is very important to be young. The tendency to see being young as something better than being
old is a cultural phenomenon. But is it always good to be young? And isn’t “young” sometimes “too young”?
When people are young, they are usually energetic and bold – they can work for longer periods of time and
they are ready to take risks. As they still haven't had much experience, they don’t have many hindrances, which
means that there aren’t many things to stand in their way. Young people have also got potential – they still have
time to develop in many different ways. Because of that, employing young people can be a good investment.
On the other hand, being young doesn’t automatically mean you’re always happy. There is a lot of
competition in society nowadays, which starts even when you’re in school. Getting a good education isn’t easy
and can cost a lot of money. Next, you have to look for a good job. In spite of the fact that so many employers
prefer young people, jobs aren’t just waiting for you. And even if you find one, it is often only for a very short
period of time.
Statistics show that the stress of modern life can sometimes bring young people a lot of troubles. Most of
them can cope with problems very well, but some others break down and lose all hope. If we don’t want this to
happen, something must be done. So it is our responsibility to offer help to those to whom being young is
definitely too young.
Question 36: The word “bold” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A. unkind B. weak C. brave D. careless
Question 37: Which is the best title for this passage?
A. The Younger, The Better?
B. Want to Be Young Forever?
C. Young People and Challenges to Find Good Jobs
D. The Young and Stress of Modern Life
Question 38: According to paragraph 2, employing young people can be a good investment because they
.
Page 5
A. always feel happy B. have got potential
C. are experienced in many fields D. are short of energy
Question 39: What can we infer about young people from this passage?
A. They only start competition when they have to look for good jobs.
B. Some of them still need help with their problems.
C. Their lives are stress-free.
D. They are reluctant to take risks.
Question 40: The word “them” in paragraph 4 refers to .
A. troubles B. statistics C. stresses D. young people
