The aggressive act that frustration produces may
take a number of forms. It may be turned inward
against oneself, with suicide as the extreme example.
It may hit back directly at the person or thing causing the frustration. Or it may be
transferred to another
object - what psychologists call displacement. This
can be directed against the dog, the family or even
total strangers. In some cases, frustration leads to
the opposite of aggression, a complete retreat from life. When we do experience
frustration, however
there are several things we can do to channel off
aggression, and the best way is, perhaps, by hard,
useful work. If both body and mind can be engaged,
so much the better.

We are frequently told these days that we should eat more vegetables as part of a healthy diet. However, a large number of people are still not taking this advice. One of the reasons could be that they have bad memories of the few vegetables they were forced to eat by their parents when they were children. On the other hand, potatoes are one kind of vegetable which we are familiar with although we do not perhaps think of them as healthy food to eat. Of course, chips are not very good for us because of their high fat content, but potatoes can be cooked in many other interesting ways which do not harm our health. Other vegetables which we will almost certainly have eaten are carrots, turnips and parsnips. Carrots can be eaten raw, while parsnips can be prepared like potatoes, and baby turnips are crisp and as sweet as apples when cooked. Alternatively, there are many different vegetables in the shops, such as celeriac and kohlrabi. These may look strange to us at the moment, but they are as easy to cook as any of the other vegetables mentioned and make a delicious change.

Traditionally, the British have always been very fond of their eccentrics. Even today, British eccentrics are considered to be the strangest, according to American psychologist David Weeks. Take the Leopard Man, for example. He lives alone in a cave on the Isle of Skye. He is tattooed from head to toe with leopard spots, and makes a living selling seafood. But is this bizarre behaviour a type of mental illness? It has long been believed that creativity and insanity are connected. In the last 30 years or so, psychologists have tried to find evidence to support this belief. One study found that creative
people have a lot in common with eccentrics and also that they are more likely to suffer from extreme depression, which is often
associated with mental illness. But during David Weeks’ detailed
research into the personalities of eccentrics, he found that they are among the happiest and healthiest
of people. Not only do they visit their doctors much less often than the rest of us, but they are also usually interested in several things at one time, so they always have a goal in life.
67- It is stated in the passage that ………
A) eccentric people are really mentally ill.
B) being tattooed is the evidence to be a bizarre people.
C) psychologists recently found evidence to support the idea that eccentric people have a lot in common with the creative people. D) mad people should be sent to the care houses.
E) for more than a quarter of a century, psychologists have believed that creativity and insanity are related to each other.
68-According to the passage, some people are considered to be eccentric because they ……… A) live in the caves and are tattooed. B) show bizarre behaviour and live in
a different environment. C) are mentally ill.
D) are more creative than normal people.
E) are likely to suffer from extreme depression.
69-One can infer from David Weeks’ research that …………
A) each creative person has got a bit madness.
B) he has been studying on this research for more than 30 years. C) eccentric people have many
positive aspects in their personalities.
D) the Leopard Man is in fact very intelligent.
E) insanity is the symptom of creativity.

Scotland was the perfect place to grow up. My parents had spent years saving up because they wanted to buy a small farmhouse in the Scottish Highlands. Shortly after I was born their dream came true and our new life in the country began. To begin with, I was probably too young to appreciate the fresh air and breathtaking views, but as I grew up I began to enjoy exploring the unspoilt country-side. I soon got used to having to walk miles to the shops, and since it was too far to travel to the nearest primary school, my parents did their best to educate me at home. However, I never felt lonely and was usually too busy helping my father on the land to worry about not having any friends. My brothers and sisters were also starting to grow up fast and we had no difficulty amusing ourselves for hours on end. When I reached the age of eleven, my parents decided it was time to send me to secondary school as they didn’t feel they were capable of providing me with the range of skills I would need for my future life. This would involve travelling twenty miles to the nearest town and twenty miles back. I was sorry to say goodbye to my old way of life, but at the same time I looked forward to mixing with new people. After finishing school I was forced to move to Edinburgh to look for work and I have now made the city my home. Although I love the cosmopolitan lifestyle, I sometimes can’t help wishing I was back in the Highlands.

the age 11.
