Power posing for confidence

Some people are born confident and others aren't, right? Perhaps not. Psychologist Amy Cuddy thinks that we can become more confident simply by changing our body language.
Studies have shown that our body language - how we sit, stand and move around - has an important effect on how other people view us. For example, if you cross your arms and look away, people will probably think you're not interested in what's going on. According to Cuddy, your pose can also affect how confident you feel. If you avoid eye contact and hunch your back, you'll feel less confident.
So, how can you increase your self-confidence? One way is by doing what Cuddy calls 'the power pose'. Stand up straight, legs apart, with your hands on your hips, and hold this pose for two minutes whenever you need a confidence boost. Afterwards, you should feel much more confident. Power posing is especially useful before job interviews, and it also proves beneficial for public speaking.
Changing our body language isn't very hard to do and there are many benefits that come with it. Improving your body language can help improve your self-confidence and give other people a good impression of you.

Câu 22:Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

It is said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Maybe that's why many people may be open to trying foreign food at lunch or dinner, but they're not adventurous enough to experiment with anything new at breakfast. But what about you? Below, we look at typical breakfasts in some different countries. Would you have them or are they too spicy, too fattening or just too different?
The traditional breakfast in South Korea is rice and soup. People then choose extra dishes to go with it such as grilled fish, vegetables and kimchi, which is pickled cabbage with chillies. Kimchi is so popular that the first Korean astronaut took some with him to the international space station! Of course, these days, many Koreans have such busy lifestyles they don't have enough time to make breakfast and just grab a quick coffee and some cereal or toast.
Breakfast in Bulgaria includes tea or strong coffee, sesame bread and butter, cheese made from sheep's milk, honey, olives, boiled eggs and - most importantly - kiselo mlyako, a local yoghurt. Bulgaria has a lot of people aged over 100 and many believe that the secret behind this is their yoghurt, which most Bulgarians eat every day.
Many Costa Ricans start their day with the national dish, gallo pinto, which is a mixture of fried rice and black beans. It's lightly spiced and often served with fried plantain (a kind of banana used like a vegetable in a lot of Central American and Caribbean cooking), cream and fried eggs. There's usually some strong local coffee as well - or perhaps some agua dulce ('sweet water'), which is made from sugar cane juice.
