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 34.
One of the most difficult questions to answer is how much a job is worth. We naturally expect that a
doctor’s salary will be higher than a bus conductor’s wage. But the question becomes much more difficult
to answer when we compare, say, a miner with an engineer, or an unskilled man working on an oil-rig in
the North Sea with a teacher in a secondary school. What the doctor, the engineer and teacher have is
many years of training in order to obtain the necessary qualifications for their professions. We feel
instinctively that these skills and these years, when they were studying instead of earning money, should
be rewarded. At the same time we recognize that the work of the miner and the oil-rig laborer is both hard
and dangerous, and that they must be highly paid for the risks they take.
Another factor we must take into consideration is how socially useful a man’s work is, regardless of the
talents he may bring to it. Most people would agree that looking after the sick or teaching children is
more important than, say, selling secondhand cars or improving the taste of toothpaste by adding a red
stripe to it. Yet it is almost certain that the used car salesman earns more than the nurse, and that research
chemist earns more than the schoolteacher.
Indeed, this whole question of just rewards can be turned on its head. You can argue that a man who
does a job which brings him personal satisfaction is already receiving part of his reward in the form of a
so-called “psychic wage”, and that it is the man with the boring, repetitive job who needs more money to
make up for the soul-destroying monotony of his work. It is significant that that those jobs which are
traditionally regarded as “vocations” - nursing, teaching and the Church, for example - continue to be
poorly paid, while others, such as those in the world of sport or entertainment, carry financial rewards out
of all proportion to their social worth.
Although the amount of money that people earn is in reality largely determined by market forces, this
should not prevent us from seeking some way to decide what is the right pay for the job. A starting point
for such an investigation would be to try to decide the ratio which ought to exist between the highest and
the lowest paid. The picture is made more complicate by two factors: firstly by the “social wage”, i.e, the
welfare benefits which every citizen receives; and secondly, by the taxation system, which is often used
as an instrument of social justice by taxing high incomes at a very high rate indeed. Allowing for these
two things, most countries now regard a ratio of 7:1 as socially acceptable. If it is less, the highly-
qualified people carrying heavy responsibilities become disillusioned, and might even end up by
emigration (the so-called “brain-drain” is an evidence that this can happen). If it is more, the gap
between rich and poor will be so great that it will lead social tensions and ultimately to violence.

correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.
Being aware of one’s own emotions - recognizing and acknowledging feelings as they happen - is at the
very heart of Emotional Intelligence. And this awareness encompasses not only moods but also thoughts
about those moods. People who are able to monitor their feelings as they arise are less likely to be ruled
by them and are thus better able to manage their emotions.
Managing emotions does not mean suppressing them; nor does it mean giving free rein to every feeling.
Psychologist Daniel Goleman, one of several authors who have popularized the notion of Emotional
Intelligence, insisted that the goal is balance and that every feeling has value and significance. As
