The Zookeeper My name's Mark Porter. I've been interested in the natural world since I
was very young. I used to keep insects, and I spent a lot of time drawing them. After I
finished school, I went to work in a pet shop -that was great fun, but I knew I had to go to

Florida working at a sea-life centre, looking after the dolphins.While I was working there, I
saw an advertisement for my current job -a keeper for the fish department at a zoo in

I'm involved in here. As part of my job, I get to do research, and I manage an education
centre where I tell people of all ages about what they can do toprotect fish and animals.
People think that my job is exciting because I go diving as part of my research work on sharks.
However, I work long hours, and I worry if I have to call a medical specialist to come and look
after a sick fish. Conditions at work can be uncomfortable too, as a lot of the fish I
look after bite, so I have to be careful. Then there are the visitors. Some are OK, but some try to
touch the fish or put sweet wrappers in the water -that makes me angry. However, my
job is very rewarding, and I hope that you'll think about working with animals, too.

Read the text and decide whether the statements are T (true) or F (false).
Everybody likes to feel special. Sadly, many of us grow up believing that we're not special at
all. We wish that we could be more attractive or better at sports. We wish we had more money
or more beautiful clothes. Like the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, or the Cowardly Lion from The
Wizard of Oz, we think we're not good enough just as we are. In the film, The Tin Man wishes
he had a heart. The Scarecrow wishes that he had a brain, and the Lion wants courage.
Eventually, each of them realizes that he already has what he wants.
Nearly all parents want us to be the best we can be. They occasionally attempt to encourage us
to do better by comparing us to others. They mean well, but the message we usually get
is that we're not good enough. We start to believe that the only way we can be special is by
being better than somebody else, but we are frequently disappointed. There will always be
somebody out there that is better than we are at something. There are a lot of people around
who may not be as intelligent as we are but who are better at sports. Or they may not be as
handsome, but they have more money. It is unthinkable for us to be better than everybody
else all the time.Like the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion, we all need
what we believe will make us better people.
What we don't understand is that often we already have inside us the very things that we look
for in life. Our parents often forget to tell us that we are special, that we are good enough just as
we are. Perhaps no one told them when they were growing up, or maybe they just forgot. Either
way, it's up to us to remind them sometimes that each of us, in our own way, is special. What we
are is enough!

C. They always tell us that we are special.
D. They frequently forget to tell us that we are special.
34. The author of this essay believes that ... .
A. we are all good enough just the way we are

Read the text about snakebites and answer the questions that follow.
You're hiking with a friend and then as you step over a tree log a snake beneath bites
your leg. One thought races through your mind, 'If you get bitten by a snake, suck out
the venom.’ Terrified, you turn to your friend, but he replies, 'No way! Then we'll both die.' Is
he right?Most likely, your friend wouldn't die. But if he has an open wound in his
mouth, the venom could enter his bloodstream, which is no help to either of you. So,
venom sucking isn't a solution. To understand how to treat snakebites, you need to know
the difference between poisons and venoms. Poisons are toxic, in other words dangerous, if
you swallow or smell them. Venoms, on the other hand, are only toxic if they get into soft
tissues and the bloodstream. So, if you suck the venom out of a snake bite, you won't be
affected. But that doesn't mean you should do it!
Experts now strongly advise against it. Why? Venom enters the bloodstream
extremely quickly, and trying to suck it out is ineffective because it’s faster than your reaction.
The best way to prevent the venom from quickly moving through the bloodstream is to remain
calm, and avoid doing anything that would increase the heart rate.
So what else should we do? Well, be aware of what snakes are in the place you are walking in.
That way you will have an idea which ones are dangerous.
31. What is the writer trying to do in this text?
A. explain the dangers of snakes.
B. advise against walking in the countryside.
C. warn about certain venomous snakes.
D. offer information about snake bites.
32. The writer advises against sucking the venom becaus..
A. it tastes awful.
B. it is risky.
C. it will hurt more.
D. it will kill you
33. According to the writer, poison ...
A. is usually breathed in.
B. has to be injected.
C. is not the same as venom.
D. is less dangerous than venom.
34. If bitten by a snake, you should ...
A. run to the nearest place for help.
B. not move at all.
C. try to keep cool.
D. sit and decide if it was a dangerous snake.
35. Which would be the best advice leaflet for snakebites?
A. ATTENTION WALKERS
-Based on worldwide data, millions die of snakebites yearly!
Take your snakebite kit with you. Be safe!
B. SAFE NOT SORRY -
If you like walking or are travelling abroad, get information on snake
species. Becareful and be find out emergency contact information.
C. WORRIED ABOUT SNAKES? Read here about how to treat your own snakebites!
Very few people die from bites if they follow this treatment. Follow it step by step.
D. ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SNAKES Snake venom travels slowly so
keep calm. Only if you think it is a dangerous snake, move as fast as you can to get
help. Read more about snakes here!
