C. READING PASSAGE :
Sometimes we say that someone we know is “a square peg in a round hole”. This simply means that the
person we are talking about is not suited for the job he is doing. He maybe a book keeper who really wants to
be an actor or a mechanic. Unfortunately, many people in the world are “square pegs”, they are not doing the
kind of work they should be doing for one reason or another. As a result, they probably are not doing a very
good job and certainly they are not happy.
Choosing the right career is very important. Most of us spend a great part of our lives at our jobs. For that
reasons we should try to find out what our talents are and how we can use them. We can do this through
aptitude tests, interviews with specialists, and study books in our field of interests. There are many career open
to each of us. Perhaps we like science. Then we might prepare ourselves to be chemists, physicists, or
biologists. May be our interests take us into the business world and such work as accounting, personnel
management or public relations. Many people find their place in government service. Teaching newspaper
work, medicine, engineering-these and many other fields offer fascinating careers to persons with talent and
training.

One of the greatest advances in modern technology has been in the invention of computers. They are already
