32、ey GrowMy first beef with the question is that it forces kids to define themselves in terms of work.

38、A scientist. B. A mother.C. A father. D. A person of integrity.33.What does the underlined word “calling” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Job. B. Duty. C. Name. D. Phone.34.Why does the author mention one study about college seniors?A.To show college seniors face huge pressure.B.To encourage college
