Part 3: Reading
Read the passages below and choose the correct answer among A, B, C or D.
All of us have to work to earn a living ourselves and to help our family. However, we
work not only for material life but also for many other things. We are working to prove our
ability. We feel self-confident and proud because we are independent. Anyone who works is
regarded as a useful member of society. We're working, that means we're contributing to our
country. Working helps us train our minds because we always try our best to do the job. The
better we work, the more money we earn and that encourages us to work harder. Without
working, a man's life will be empty, purposeless and meaningless and it's easy for a jobless
person to do wrongs.
