Why we believe in astrology
People believe in astrology because it offers many desirable things such as information and assurance about the future.
Astrology claims that nothing in life is coincidental and everything that occurs to us happens for a particular reason. Astrology can provide us some good answers as to why these things happen to us and it can also predict them in advance. In this way, astrology actually helps people to understand the world around them much better.
As practiced today, astrology can work quite well. Most of the people who visit astrologers or read their horoscopes regularly end up feeling happy and satisfied. This does not mean that the astrologers have accurately predicted the individuals’ future based on their horoscope dates, but it means that having a horoscope explained can be actually a very fulfilling experience.
People enjoy reading their horoscope forecasts and this often leads to changes in personalities, behaviors and decision-making processes. Astrology can be a real lifesaver because it lets you know of the future obstacles and problems in advance. It is up to you whether you want to believe the advice and precautions suggested in a horoscope reading and save yourself from the pain without doing much.
Astrology takes into account two major aspects - our birth potential and the effects of the planets and the stars on our personal horoscope. It can help us choose the right career and education path for us, in order to make a good and successful life.
Last but not least, we believe in astrology because it’s about us. My horoscope is like a blueprint of my life that got created precisely at the time I was born. That means that my birth chart is as unique as my fingerprints are. Each planet’s placement in my horoscope can reveal a lot about my personality and destiny.

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer for these following questions.
 FOOD AROUND THE WORLD
It isn't amazing how much time we spend talking about food? "Have you ever eaten ...?", "What do you have for lunch?" and so on. And yet, when you travel from one country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal, and what other people eat is strange and silly. In most parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times a day. Australians drink large amounts of beer and the French drink wine every day.
The sorts of meat people like to eat also differ from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but never eat goat meat. The Japanese don’t like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish. So it seems that although eating is a topic that we can talk about for hours, there is a little common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habit.
Question 22. What is the main idea of the text? 
A. People have the same feelings about food. 
B. People think about food differently.
C. People think that no meal is perfect without rice.
Question 23. According to the writer, where is bread the main food?
A. In Asia
B. In Japan 
C. In Middle East
Question 24. Which of these people drink wine every day?
A. Americans 
B. Australians
C. The French
Question 25. Which is popular food in Japan?
A. Fish
B. Horse meat
C. Goat meat
Question 26. How does the writer conclude about our eating habit?
A. Our eating habit is difficult to change. 
B. People everywhere enjoy eating new food.
C. We can change our eating habit easily.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 28 to 32. 
It has been thought that women are the second class in citizen, and men are the first. There is not a real equality of opportunity for men and women. Years ago, people were living in a man-dominated society. Women had to obey their husbands and fathers absolutely. Women' s place was in the kitchen and women' s work was housework. In many places, women were not even allowed to go to school. Women had no rights, even the right to choose husband for themselves. Men usually occupied high positions in society so they thought they were more intelligent than women. Men often considered women as their property. Sometimes, they were mistreated by their husbands and suffered the problem as a fate. Many parents did not even want to have daughters. 
Despite the progress, there remain outdated beliefs about women' s roles, traditionally passed down from generation to generation. Men are commonly seen as the strong bodies, bread-winners in the family and key leaders in society, while women are restricted to being housewives and child bearing and care, and housework such as washing and cooking. 
According to social surveys, many women in the 21st century still have to work over 12 hours a day including working in offices and doing countless household chores without any help from their husbands. In some regions, the labor of women is not recognized despite the hardships they endure to support the whole family. Moreover, women are the direct victims of family violence, especially in rural areas.
Thanks to the women' s liberation movement, nowadays women have proved that they are equal to men in every aspect. An average woman has weaker muscles than an average man but she may be as intelligent as he is. Women can do everything that men can, and women can do one thing that no man can: they produce children.
Question 28: Which was not women' s role in the former days?
A. Bearing and rearing children	B. Working in authority
C. Doing housework	D. Doing cooking
Question 29: Years ago, women were not allowed ________.
A. to stay at home with their parents	B. to do housework
C. to work in the kitchen	D. to go to school
Question 30: What did women have to suffer?
A. Enjoy their housework	B. Illiteracy
C. Good schooling	D. Choosing a husband themselves
Question 31: The outdated beliefs about women' s roles ________.
A. was forced to change after the women' s liberation movement
B. have been eradicated completely
C. still exist at present .
D. disappeared soon after the women' s liberation movement
Question 32: According to the text, women in the 21st century ________.
A. get help from their husbands with all housework
B. spend less than 12 hours working outside the home and doing housework
C. are still the victims of family violence in some rural areas
D. do not have to do housework any more
