Read the following passage until you reel you have a general understanding of it, then answer the question set at the endi
Fewer and fewer people are spending the whole of their working lives In the place where they were born. Not only do they go to work in different parts of their own country; there are many who go abroad. In every major city of the world there are now thousands of 'foreigners', and a very small. proportion of them are tourists.

The reasons for this are many, and vary from person to person Many highly-educated men and women inore than ever before appointed to represent their home government's in other countries as diplomats, trade-commissioners; or to serve in colonial government. International trade has expanded tremendously and the richer people everywhere are eager to buy the special products of other nations. In almost every main street you can see American, British, Gerinan, Italian and Japanese cars. Much of the machinery in the factories has been made overseas; and there. is a very great demand for smaller, personal luxuries. In consequence of this, countless men and women go abroad to organise and encourage the sale of their firms' products, and banks are established to handle the financial arrangements..
A number of people go abroad from a sense of vocation, They feel that they have certain talents which ought to be used for the benefit of needy peoples. In Africa, Asia, and South America therefore, a great deal of educational, medical, and social work is being done by devoted professional people, many of whom desire no financial reward, and are willing to accept living conditions inferior to those they could command at home. Most of these people are diligent in training local people in the hope that some day they will be able to carry on the work. A
There are other motives of course and possibly no one person has only one motive for leaving his home-country. The desire for adventure is not dead, Many young people become bored with a way of life they Kiw too well, and frustrated by the limitations they feel they suffer from at home. Others feel that they will find more professional scope in a 'young country where competition is not so intense. Still others are eager to escape what they call 'civilisation'. Such do not of course go off to New York or Hong Kong, but seek out the lonelier and wilder places; or even suck their satisfaction on the high seas. It is possible that they are also anxious to prove to themselves that they possess qualities of mind and body which cannot be easily tested amidst all the comfort and security of the twentieth century.
Others are running away, but most of these are not criminals.. Possibly they have suffered some disaster or grief, and cannot shake off. either the consequences or the bitter memory of it in the place where it happened. Or possibly there is a temperamental difficulty, some unhappy people carry their unhappiness with them wherever they go, and seem to be at home nowhere,
Not many of all the travellers however intend to die abroad. Most of them dream of returning home after having done a good job, or made their money, or had their fill of excitement and novelty. When they return they are often disappointed. The friends they know are dead or changed. Even the place they return to has been transformed sometimes beyond recognition, Most of all, their own attitudes and interests have been con- ditioned by the environment they have been living and working in for so long, and they find that they have become foreigners in their own land,

Most of us do not realise at the outset the problems we are laying up for ourselves when we first set foot on a long-distance plane or ship. Then it is all excitement, confidence and hope. As we become engrossed in our new life and work, there are only occasional hints of future difficulties that will have to be dealt with some day problems that may be summed up in the ward loneliness, either of parents, of children of ourselves or of all,

The party was in full swing. The band was playing vigorously and more people than there was room for were dancing. Most of them were young people, but seemed content to be dancing almost all the time on on spot. The room was lined by chairs and tables, but even then, many had to stand. But those who were not dancing were not inactive. Except whe they were absent-mindedly sipping orange-juice, they were participating whole-heartedly, tapping with their feet, drumming with their fingers, moving their heads in time with the music, and conscious of nothing but the beat.
The noise did not cease or change suddenly and only those in the furthest corner of the hall were aware of some disturbance at one tably. These few at first went silent, then burst into excited conversation; and this spread through the room, like the ever-widening waves and troughs caused by a stone thrown into a pool - first the silence, then the animate. 15 Chatter - until the impact reached the band. The music stopped, and the
