THE LITTLE BOY WHO COULD (from Newsweek)
Rocky Lyons never tired of hearing about "The Little Engine That Could". Last Halloween
his parents knew that how much the story meant to him, and to them. Rocky's dad, Marty Lyons,
was playing football for the New York Jets. His mom, Kelly, was driving home through Alabama
with five-year-old Rocky, asleep beside her. Suddenly, their pickup truck hit a large hole in the
road and fell down a hill to the bottom of a forty-foot of a steep valley. “I had blood all over
my face and in my eyes, and I thought I was blind,” Mrs. Lyons recalls. I told "Rocky to get away
because I thought the truck might explode."
The boy obeyed - and then ran back to try to pull her from the wrecked car. "Come on,
Mom. I can help you get up the hill. I can push," he said. All of 4 feet and 2 inches and 55 pounds,
Rocky began to push his mother up the slope. "Gosh Mom, you weigh a thousand pounds," he
said. Even in pain, Mrs. Lyons had to smile at that. But halfway up the hill, she told her son she
could go no farther. “Oh, Mom, think of the little train: I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.
That's what it said," he insisted. They started up again. Finally, they crawled to the highway, where
a passing car took them to the hospital. Rocky's mother had two broken shoulders and needed
70 stitches to close the wounds on her face. Without her son's perseverance, she's sure she would
have bled to death.
"The Little Engine That Could" is a children's story about a little train that had to go up a
mountain. The train said, “I think I can, I think I can" To get the courage. Finally, it succeeded.

Part 5: Reading (Items 25–30)

Items 25-29: Read the given passages and answer the questions below.
25. In the past, people used to sit together in a living room or go to their friends' houses to watch
sport; from international events such as the Olympics or the FIFA World Cup to a local football match
on a local TV channel. They used to sit in the living room, eat snacks and watch the game together.
Now with the internet, people from London to India to Bangkok can watch sports events from all
over the world easily on their smartphones and other devices. They can watch a greater variety of
events, too. For some people, getting together with friends for a game is a bit harder because
everyone's so busy, so it's much easier to watch it in your own time. It's a pity. We should make the
effort to carry on the old tradition of watching the game with friends at home.
You can infer from the passage that ___________.
1) people today prefer online events to the Olympics or the FIFA World Cup
2) people living in London, India, and Bangkok have better internet speed
3) getting together at friends' houses can cause parents a lot of problems
4) technology is changing how people spend time together
26. We all need our best friends. Best friends share good and bad times. We tell our close friends
our secrets. But what about casual friends? They are the friends we see only now and then. They are
our classmates, the customers at the café or the neighbor walking his dogs. Research shows that the
more casual friends we have, the better our lives would be. First, casual friends make us happy. We
feel like we are not alone. Second, they connect us to other groups of people. Finally, they even
introduce us to a variety of new ideas. Our best friends often think like us but they may have different
ideas.
The main idea from the passage is ___________.
1) friendships are only from best friends
2) casual friends improve our lives in several ways
3) it is harder to find best friends than casual friends
4) talk more to strangers to make more casual friends

27. Dr. Vennard's job is to convince meat-eaters to eat less meat. A juicy burger just sounds more
delicious than healthy broccoli. To reach the goal he says we have to change the words we use. It
helps to talk about where the food comes from. Many restaurants sell Cuban black bean soup more
than low-fat vegetarian black bean soup. Or they can talk about taste, color, and texture instead.
To sell more food from plants, many restaurants ___________.
1) set low prices for vegetarian meals
2) become dishonest and use fake meat
3) should use language that attracts customers
4) offer a discount to meat-eaters who order less meat
28. The number of climbers on Mount Fuji has increased after it became a UNESCO World Heritage
