 few hours for people who wanting to go to Australia and the United States. Although I enjoy
 this very much, I feel I need to get more experience and it would seems to me that working as

 English-speaking country, as I need to practise my English. I spend one year at

 I would find them difficult. However, they turned out to be very enjoyable. I will have no any

Question I: Read the following passage and then choose the most suitable word or phrase for each 
space. (10 pts) 
 Childhood is the time when there are (51) responsibilities to make life difficult. If a 
child has good parents, he is (52) , looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is 
improbable that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in 
return. In (53) , life is always presenting new things to the child- things that have lost their interest 
for older people because they are too well- known. A child finds pleasure playing in the rain , or in the 
snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvellous adventure. But a child has his (54) .He is 
not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are: he is continually told not to do things, or 
being punished (55) what he has done wrong. His life’s therefore not perfectly happy.
 When a young man starts to (56) his own living, he becomes free from the 
discipline of school and parents, but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities. He can 
no longer expect (57) to pay for his food, his clothes and his room, but he has to work if he wants to 
live comfortably. If he spends most time playing about in a day he used to as a child, he will be 
hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to 
prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the 
greatest happiness of seeing himself make steady (58) in his job and of building up for 
himself his own position in society.
 Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be, but it is not necessary for the old 
to be unhappy. With old age (59) wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely 
given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life: they can watch their 
grandchildren growing up around them, and perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a 
useful one, feel the happiness of having come (60) the battle of life safely and of having 
reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving others to continue the fight.
