II.Reading
Read the article below and then answer the questions.
For most people, a job means they get up at 7:00 am and drive to work by 8:30 or 9:00 am. Later, they have lunch at
noon, and then they start work again at 1:00 pm. Finally, they finish work at about 5:00 pm and then go home and
have dinner with their family. That kind of job is okay for most people, but my job is special and I love it! I’m a
commercial airline pilot. That means I don’t drive to work, I fly! In fact, I fly to many different destinations in the
world and I have friends in many countries. Usually, I fly between countries in Asia, North America and South
America. It’s not surprising, then, that my best friend lives in Japan and we stay in touch by Facebook and e-mail –
when I’m in Tokyo, he always invites me to have dinner with him and his family. In fact, my favorite food is sushi.
Another good friend of mine – Gustavo – lives in Brasilia. That’s the capital city of Brazil. Gustavo and I love to
watch football games together when I visit. Is my job perfect? No, it’s not. Because I fly across many different time
zones, I sometimes go to bed at 2:00 am. At other times, I go to bed at 2:00 pm. That kind of schedule isn’t easy. In
addition, my job often separates me from my wife and two children. They live in New York and often I am many
thousands of miles away. Sometimes I miss them very much. However, I think I have an exciting job. And my kids
think it’s great that I can say, “Hello” in eighteen different languages: “Ni hao,” “Anyounghaseyo,” “Konnichiwa,”
“Bonjour,”

II.Reading
My dream job would be becoming a professional baseball player. I grew up playing little league
baseball. I was not the best player on the team; but playing baseball was something I would look
forward to doing every day and just have fun doing it. I haven’t played baseball for the last four
years. I really missed the times when I would just have that happy feeling when my dad would drive up to
the park, when I would get a base hit, when I would catch a fly ball, or just the fact that I was a part of a
team.So many baseball players these days take their jobs for granted. Many play baseball not just because
they are good at it, but because of the money. Alex Rodriguez signed a $252 million contract for the
Texas Rangers in 2000. Anybody in the entire world would love to be in his shoes. After all, what would
you do with $252 million? For myself, I would love to be in Alex Rodriguez’s shoes, not because of the
money, not because of the fame, but because if I were in his shoes, I would just treasure every moment of
every second that I am on the field. I would feel like the luckiest person alive every time I am reminded
that I am living the dream, a dream that many people like myself would die to get the chance to do.
Write ‘T’ True , ‘F ’ False or Doesn’t Say ‘DS’ next to each statement.
1. Kenneth would like to be a basketball player because he was always
the best in the team player. T / F / DS
2. He enjoyed himself while playing baseball. T / F / DS
3. He has continuously played basketball since he was a child. T / F / DS
4. He believes that money is one of the main reasons to become a baseball player. T / F / DS
5. Kenneth would like to be in Alex Rodriguez’s place because of the fame. T / F / DS
6. He enjoys being a part of a baseball team. T / F / DS
