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 following questions
In 2002, several obese teenagers in the USA sued McDonald’s, claiming that the company was
responsible for making them fat They argued that McDonald’s deliberately misled them into
thinking that their cheeseburgers and other products were healthy and nutritious food They
claimed that the company had not warned them about the health problems that can result from
eating too much salty, high-fat food and drinking too many sugary drinks: diabetes, high blood
pressure and obesity The mother of one of the children, who at the age of 15 weighed more than
180 kilograms, said in her statement: “I always believed McDonald’s was healthy for my son.”
Trang 2McDonald’s rejected the claim that they were responsible for these teenagers’ health problems
“People don’t go to sleep thin and wake up obese,” said McDonald’s lawyer, BradLerman “The
understanding of what hamburgers and French fries do has been with us for a long, long time,” he added The judge agreed, and dismissed the case, saying: “it is not the place of the law to protect
people against their own excessess.” In other words, if people choose to eat a lot of unhealthy
food, they can’t blame the company that sold it to them
Other similar lawsuits against fast food companies in the USA have also failed In 2005, the US
House of Representatives passed a bill which became known as the “Cheeseburger Bill” It made
it much harder for obese people to take legal action against the food industry However, the bill
has not ended the arguments about responsibility There is some scientific evidence to suggest
that fast food is addictive and harmful too So is selling fast food the same, in a way, as
drug-dealing?

THE SUCCESS OF J K ROWLING
There are few modern-day writers as renowned as Joanne Kathleen Rowling, the creator
of Harry Potter With over 30 awards under her belt, she is one of the most successful authors of
all time In addition, her novels have famously been adapted into a series of box-office
hits These earn her so much income that the 47-year-old could comfortably retire, and live
off Harry Potter royalties for the rest of her life! However, this lucrative success story started at
the most humble of beginnings, with a talented but insecure writer too afraid to pursue her
dreams
Joanne grew up in a house full of books that fuelled her creativity She was so enchanted by
fairy tales that she began to dream up her own, and by the time she was six years old she had
written her first story about a rabbit and a giant bee “Ever since Rabbit and Miss Bee, I have
wanted to be a writer, though I rarely told anyone so,” recalls Joanne, “I was afraid they'd tell me
I didn’t have a hope."
Throughout her life, Joanne continued to write, filling entire boxes with stories and unfinished
novels But due to her lack of confidence, she never approached a publisher with any of her
work It wasn’t until later life, when Joanne lost her job and was living in poverty, that she finally
Trang 13devoted her time to writing Then with nothing to lose, she contacted an agency with her first
completed manuscript: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
Joanne’s first novel was rejected by twelve different publishers and eventually found itself in
the hands of Nigel Newton, the founder of Bloomsbury Press He did not read the book himself,
but gave it to his eight-year-old daughter The girl loved the novel so much that Nigel agreed to
take it on; but not without apprehensions “You’ll never make any money out of children’s
books,” he warned Joanne
Well, she certainly proved him wrong! To date, she has sold 500 million copies of her novels
globally, and the Harry Potter franchise has reaped profits of £15 billion! Now, as the richest
