Read the text and choose the best answer (A,B,C,D)
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!
Câu 25. What is the writer's main aim in writing the text?
A. to explain the importance of being yourself
B. to describe how intelligent we are
C. to talk about your family problems
D. to suggest how people can change their way of life
Câu 26. This essay was most likely written by … .
A. a parent
B. a young person
C. a coach
D. a teacher
Câu 27. What does the writer say about our parents?
A. They frequently forget to tell us that we are special.
B. They always tell us that we are special.
C. They always tell us that we are good enough.
D. They never forget to tell us that we are special.
Câu 28. The author of this essay believes that … .
A. we are all good enough just the way we are
B. intelligent people are more special than others
C. not everyone can be special.
D. the richer you are, the better you are
