Passage two
How often one hears children wishing they were grownups, and old people washing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Youth is a time when there are few tasks to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child-things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do, he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.
When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the law 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 great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.
6. People can experience happiness if they .
A. always think of the past and regret it B. value the present
C. become old and have much experience D. are no longer young
7.When people were young, they used to
A. be in charge of many businesses B. have few things to think about an take on
C. look after their younger sisters and brothers D. face a lot of difficulties
8. The pains of children lie in the fact that
A. no one helps them make right decisions B. they are often beaten by their parents
C. they can not be accepted and praised by others D. they are not allowed to do what they like to do
9. Children are usually happy because .
A. old people lost interest in them B. they are free to do wrong
C. they are familiar with everything going on around them D. things are new to them
10. Which of the following is NOT needed for a young man to be happy?
A. Hard work B. Being free from troubles C. Wealth D. Health
