Read the following text and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 40.        Bill Gates is the co-founder of Microsoft, the world's largest PC software company. He is among the richest people in the world. Bill Gates' interest in computers started when he was a teenager. After high school, he was accepted to several top colleges in the USA: Harvard, Yale, and Princeton. He chose to go to Harvard to study law. At Harvard, he focused more on his interest in computers than on coursework. He often relaxed by playing video games in Harvard's computer lab. He left Harvard before graduating because he wanted to open a software company with his friend Paul Allen. However, he later said, 'I don't think dropping out is a good idea. In 2007, he received an honorary degree from Harvard. He began his speech by saying this to his father in the audience. ‘I’ve been waiting more than 30 years to say this: Dad, I always told you I'd come back and get my degree.' Bill Gates is no longer working full time for Microsoft. He is now, with his wife, running The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation which aims to improve healthcare, reduce poverty, and promote education around the world.

IX. Read the following passage carefully and choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D) for each questions.                                     Television and KidsTelevision is very popular and even has some benefits for kids. It helps very young children learn the letters of the alphabet, and helps other kids learn about science, cultures, and world events.However, researchers show that too much TV is bad for children.
