Reading-Comprehension-Lesson 40

Đọc hiểu -TOEFL- Bài 40

Đọc đoạn văn sau và trả lời các câu hỏi:
   What are the keys to career success? Our background? Our education?
Maybe. But they only affect our careers; they by no means guarantee
success. If there is any guarantee of success, and that is questionable,
it is through one's own intrinsic qualities, one's own hard work
5 and a constant re-assessment of one's goals.

A recent study in the US showed that something between 10 and 20%
of the Harvard College Class of 1958 have lost their jobs in the
past ten years. So, not only the best education but also the best
10 possible social background cannot guarantee career success.

If these people, mainly men, had not believed their background was
an insurance to success in life, and if they had searched for ways
to make new and better-quality contributions to their work, they
15 wouldn't now be out of work. Anyone can succeed, and anyone can fail,
and in terms of one's career this is very important to recognize.
As long as one has goals and one takes action to achieve these goals,
then one can be said to be following a successful career strategy.
1. Which of the following would be a suitable title for the passage?




2. As used in line 4 the word "intrinsic" means




3. What does the author imply the reason is why the Harvard graduates lost their jobs?




4. What is the way to a successful career strategy?




5. What is the author's attitude to having a good education?
