As the race began, the rabbit raced way ahead of the turtle, just like everyone thought. The rabbit got to

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that
every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.

The first day, the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to
control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was
easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.

Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father
suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days
passed and the boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.

The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but
look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they
leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won't matter how many
times you say I'm sorry. The wound is still there."

A. We must respect our parents

B. People should apologize one another

Vegetarians

There are many reasons why people become vegetarians, including personal health, the environment,
and the economy.
A vegetarian is a person who does not eat meat, poultry, and fish. Vegetarians mostly eat fruit,
vegetables, legumes, grains, seeds, and nuts. Vegetarians also consume eggs and dairy products, but
they avoid meat products, such as beef, chicken stocks, and gelatin.

fiber.

whole dairy products, and eggs.

be well-planned to prevent and treat certain diseases.

Read the following text to answer questions number 33 to 38.

Should Americans be forced to Public Transportation?

First, let me define what the question is and isn’t asking. It isn’t asking if we should we all abandon cars
right now, nor is it asking if we should abandon them completely, nor is it asking if every American
should do so. It is asking weather some Americans should have to take public transit some of the time,
and I would say yes.

Oil use and pollution aside, in some cities like Los Angeles and New York there just isn’t room for any
more roads, so in order for large cities to grow, they need more people to take public transit or risk
permanent traffic jam. One bus can safely hold 40 people so even at half capacity that’s nearly 20 cars’
worth of space in traffic cleared up, and nearly 20 parking spaces that don’t need to built.

There are a lot of people that can take with transit little inconvenience but simply don’t because they
never have in the past. If residents in areas with plenty of transit had to buy transit passes as part of
their property taxes then they would have little excuse not to bus occasionally. QA number of
universities already bundle a ‘U-Pass’ with their tuition feeds, forcing their students to take the bus.
When given the change the majority of those students have voted to keep these programs.

A similar system in apartments where a portion of the tenants are not issued parking spaces in exchange
for a discount on their rent would also be community car to several apartment tenants that arrange a
schedule for the car, and this program gets many positive reviews.

So yes, I would say that Americans should be forced to use public transit, as Americans whom are
already forced to do so find that it works well for them.

33. What does writer suggest?

A. Americans should learn to use public transportation.

B. Americans should give up their car.

A. Make people buy transit passes as part of their property taxes.

B. Banning the use of cars.

D. Fine people who do not use public transportation.

35. What is the purpose of the article?

A. Suggesting that Americans should be forced to use public transportation.

B. Arguing that Americans should not use public transportation.

C. Suggesting American the ways to use public transportation.

D. Asking for more public transportation.

36. What is the function of the first paragraph?

A. Repeating the thesis or proposal.

B. Stating the proposal.

C. Stating the reasons behind the thesis.

D. Describing the problem.
