After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, marked1 to5. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A),B), C) and D ). You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The "spider story" is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times to span the gap. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and gone to defeat the English ... Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models before he found the right way to make one.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top form yourself? What can you change so that things will go right next time?
Second, is the goal you are trying to reach the right one? Try to do thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question, " If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?"This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing anyway.

Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center.
For people who are superstitious about numbers, odd numbers are luckier than even numbers. The numbers three, seven, and nine have special powers of good luck, but thirteen is very unlucky. In many places, tall buildings don’t have a floor numbered thirteen.
Even people who say they aren’t superstitious often act in superstitious ways. If a person says to a friend, “I haven’t had a cold all winter,” that person may immediately touch wood. Touching or knocking on something made of wood after speaking of some lucky event is supposed to prevent the luck from leaving. This superstition comes from the ancient belief that good spirits lived in trees.
Another action which many “unsuperstitious” people perform involves triangles. People believe that triangles have special powers because of their three sides, so they are afraid to break them. If a ladder is leaning against a wall, for example, most people won’t walk under it because it would “break” the triangle.
It seems that almost everyone is superstitious in one way or another. We all want to be able to tell the future, control the world around us, or have some luck. In the last part of the 20th century now that the science is the way of the world, we still hold many of our ancient superstitions. Do they work? Are they facts? Of course not. Or are we sure?
