The chief duty of every government is to protect persons and property. More than three-fourths of the money spent by our government is used for this purpose .The next largest amount of public money goes to teach and train our citizens. Billions of dollars each year are spent on schools and libraries. Public money is used to pay the teachers and other public officials.
Years ago the government made money from the sale of public lands. But most of the best public lands has now been sold. The money raised was used to help pay he cost of government. There are still some public lands that contain oil, coal, gas, and other natural products. They could be sold, but we want to save them for future years.

When I was at school, my ambition was to be a pilot in the Air Force. But my eyesight wasn't
good enough. So I had to give up the idea. I went to university and studies physics. I wanted to stay on there and do research, but my father died at about that time. So I thought I'd better get a job and earn my living. I started working in an engineering firm.
I expected to stay in that job for a long time. But then, they appointed a new managing director. I didn't get on with him, so I resigned and applied for a job with another engineering company. I would certainly have accepted the job if they had offered it to me, but on my way to the interview I met a friend who was working for a travel agency. He offered me a job in Spain. And I've always liked Spain, so I took it.
I worked in the travel agency for two years and then they wanted to send me to South America. But I had just got married. So I decided to stay here. Then we had a baby and I wasn't earning enough to support the family. So I started giving English lessons at a school in the evenings.
I liked the English teaching more than working for the travel agency, and then the owner of the school offered me a full-time job as a teacher. So I resigned from the agency. Two years later, the owner of the school wanted to retire, so he asked me to take over as the director. And here I am. Questions 14 to 17 are based on the passage you have just heard.

Passage Three
Columbus sailed from Spain in September 1492, looking for gold. Native Americans greeted him, offering gifts of corn. Columbus found little gold on that trip, but he collected many plants, including corn, to bring back to Spain.
Columbus didn't know it. But the corn was much more valuable than gold. Farmers from Europe to Asia accepted it immediately. They grew it on cold mountain sides and in tropical forest. Today it feeds millions of people all over the world .
On his second trip, Columbus brought back a few chocolate beans to make chocolate. Europeans and Asians love this new drink, and soon they were paying a great deal of money for the beans. Chocolate beans became so valuable in Central America that they were used as cash for 200 years. Tomatoes and patatoes took some time to become popular. Eventually, however, they became the basis of a lot of popular foods. It is hard to imagine life without fried potatoes or chocalate. Thanks to native American cultures, many people are able to enjoy lots of tasty food.

18. Why is corn feeding millions of people today?
19. What did Columbus bring back on his second trip?

In America, when people say “man’s best friend”, they don’t mean person. Instead they are talking about a lovely animal: a dog! These words show the friendship between people and to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few even leave all their money to their when they die!
Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to become the “” for a blind(瞎的) person or “ for a deaf(聋的) person. Scientists have found that pets help people live They make people happier, too. Because of that animals are brought into hospitals for “visits”.
Americans hold “Be to Animals Week”, the first week of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you don’t live in America, you, too, can do this. How? If you have a pet, take time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious
If you don’t have a pet, be kind to animals around you. If you see a dog, don’t kick it or throw things at it. Instead, just leave it alone, or better yet, make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal, try to them. As people, we must protect animals who can’t speak for themselves.

I was born in the city of York, in English, in the year 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. My father gave me strong advice against it, but with little effect. One day, being at Hull, I met a school-fellow who was about to sail for London in his father’s ship, and he invited me to go with him, and without telling my father, I went on board.
On the way to London, a storm arose, the ship was wrecked, and we barely escaped with our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a vessel which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He took a fancy to me, and offered me a chance to go with him on his voyages, which I gladly accepted.
A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we struck a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we launched a boat. After we had been driven four or five miles, a mountainous wave struck us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. Though I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was dashed against a rock with such force that it left me senseless. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely.

I worked a manager in a company for a number of years. I liked my job, and was doing well there, but our company was bought by a larger company and most of the managers at our place lost their jobs. That was when I decided to do something I’d always wanted to do ---become a freelance writer. Changing professions has meant that my lifestyle has changed in a number of ways.
The main difference for me now is that I have a much more flexible schedule. I work about as much as I did before ---between 45 and 50 hours a week ---but my schedule is much less rigid than it used to be. Before, I worked from 8 to 5 every day, with a few extra hours on weekends. Now, however, I work when I feel like it. For instance, sometimes I work until midnight or 2 A.M., then sleep until noon. I really prefer this kind of schedule. It seems more natural to me.
I also decided that it was about time I began to pay more attention 2
to my health. While I was working as a manager, I never exercised. I already felt tired after work, so I just came home in the evening and watched TV. However, last year I joined a health club and began to do regular exercise. As a result I have lost over 10 pounds and I feel much better. I’ve also started to eat more healthfully. I used to eat a lot of fast food, but now I do my own shopping. I buy lots of fruits and vegetables and cook them at home.
Of course, not all the changes have been that easy. For example, I don’t feel as secure financially as I used to. When I was working as a manager, I never worried much about money. I could always count on getting my paycheck every two weeks. Working freelance, I don’t have a regular paycheck. So now I have to make sure there’s enough money until the next check arrives.
All in all, I really like my current lifestyle. Of course, that doesn’t mean I’ll never want to have “regular” job. But for now, at least, it suits me.

What is the main difference the job change brought to the author? ----He can change his schedule as he likes. Why does the author do his own cooking now? ----He wants to eat more healthfully. What is his chief problem now? ----He has to worry about money. At the end of the passage, the author indicates that 3

There are two things I can count on my dad asking every time he calls me: “Is there anything I can do for you?” and “How’s the car?” I guess he asks what he can do for me because his dad (an air force officer) was never really there for him, and he’s determined to provide me with the support he lacked. During my youth he never missed a school play or softball game. In face, he was so supportive that I sometimes longed for one of those dads who dressed better and cared less. But my dad would forever be the guy wearing shorts with dress shoes and black socks, cheering me on, expecting greatness.
His other standard question---“How’s the car?” ---used to strike me as a waste of long-distance dollars from a man who once suggested making a list of what you want to talk about before calling someone out of state. What I now realize is that “How’s the car?” is not about the car. It’s a father’s way of asking his adult daughter how she is. The advantage is that if there’s something wrong with the car, he knows what to do about it and how much it will cost, whereas if you’re having marital problems or doubting a career choice, he might have to put Mom on the line.
At age 30 I finally took the plunge into adulthood by leasing a car without my dad’s help or advice. I’m sure y dad was hurt rather than proud. Though a daughter’s independence is evidence of a job well done, it still implies the job’s done, and many fathers are reluctant to retire. Even when my dad was overworked, he’d happily hop on a plane if I said I needed help. His frequent question, “Is there anything I can do for you?” underlines the fact that he wishes there was still something he 4
could provide. It’s interesting: Even though we’re tied by blood and I love him no fare ---to feel he has a role in my life.
