1-2 My life as a bed tester Last year, I graduated from art school without any definite ideas about what I wanted to do. I knew I didn’t want to work nine to five, and I also didn’t really want to work in an office. Then one day, I saw an advertisement on the graduate career website. It said: “Do you appreciate the importance of a good night’s sleep? Are you interested in flexible working hours? Why not consider a career in bed testing!” I’ve always enjoyed sleeping, so I decided to send my résumé and a cover letter. The interview was very unusual. I was asked to lie down on two different beds and make notes on what I thought about them. It was the strangest interview I’ve ever had, and I couldn’t believe my luck when I found I had got the job. After that, I worked for a year testing beds. I think I slept in about 50 or 60 beds every month! My biggest job was when I visited a big, luxury hotel. I was offered $10,000 to sleep in each one of their hundreds of beds and write about how comfortable they were. It wasn’t a bad salary for such relaxing work. One of the best things about the job is when people at parties ask me what I do. Telling them I am a professional sleeper always gets the conversation started! I don’t know if I’ll do this job forever, but for now it suits me just fine. 10. What are the writer’s plans for the future?
A. To be a bed tester forever.
B. To give up the job very soon.
C. To continue the job in the short term.
D. To set up a bed-testing business.

4-2 Have you ever dreamed about turning your hobby into your full-time job? This may sound too good to be true, but for fashion writer and model Anna King, the dream is now a reality. Anna had always found it difficult to find clothes to fit her. She says, “I am a plus-size woman, and so when I went shopping with my friends, I could never find anything big enough to fit me. So, I went online and found lots of great shops which sold fashionable clothes in bigger sizes. I took photos of myself wearing the clothes and shared my shopping experiences online, on a weekly fashion blog.” The blog called “Large Looks” became popular. Anna says, “Soon I had followers from all over the world! It turns out that many bigger women were having similar problems finding nice clothes.” After two years of blogging, a publisher asked me to write a book about my experiences. Just one week later, a model agency asked me to model some plus-size clothes for them. I just couldn’t believe it! Anna says, “I was able to give up my job as a secretary for a law firm and concentrate on my hobby. Now I never feel sad about going back to work on a Monday!” She adds, “Lots of people tell me how lucky I am. I tell them that yes, I was lucky, but I also worked very hard. I wrote hundreds of blog posts before I was noticed!” 38. How long did it take before a publisher noticed Anna?
A. One week
B. Two weeks
C. One year
D. Two years
