Your dad set fire to a tree in the back garden and had to call the fire brigade. I’m sure you remember that!

Anyway, I’m writing to you now because Vtasta remembers that your parents are both lawyers. I’m studying Law at university here in the Czech Republic. It’s a five-year course, and I’m just about finish my second year. I’ve decided to spend next year working in the UK, partly to improve my English and partly to earn some money . Could your mum or dad give me any advice about how to get a job in a law firm? I’m prepared to do any kind of work – t don’t mind making tea!

I’m enclosing a recent photo of me, Vtasta and two friends of ours. Vlasta is the girl with long, blond air (it used to be dark.). I’m the one on the left, with short, dark hair and a long-sleeved T-shirt’.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 21 to 25.

Everyone wants a job that pays well. Some people stop school early because they want to start earning cash right away. Others spend years and years studying in school in order to get a better job. Which is best? Actally, studies show that in most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.

For example, in the United States, high school graduates can make about $30,400 a year. The people who do not finish high school average only $23,400 a year. Just having a document that says you finished high school means an extra $7,000!

If you stay in school, you can make more money. A person who goes to college and gets a bachelor‟s degree can make an average of $52,200. With a master‟s degree, he or she can make about $62,000. And studies show that if a person gets a PhD, he or she can make $89,000 or more a year.

Of course, people with different occupations have different salaries. If you want to work and make more money, spend more time in school.

Question 21. Why does the passage say some people stop high school early?

A. They do not have a lot of money.

B. They do not like going to school.

C. They do not want to work hard.

D. They want to start making money.

Question 22. The underlined phrase “earning power” in the passage probably means

A. ability to make money

B. power to spend money
