Reading

Task 1:

Read the text carefully.
Congratulations!

Nura arrives in a big city to help her parents settle their debts. She moves into Juna’s house as a
hired servant. In the house, Juna is a rich and proud young man who inherits his father’s business. He is lazy
and goes to campus just to meet friends and chase pretty girls who love his wealth.

In his chaotic life, Juna is betrayed by his own cousin and uncle leading to his downfall. Juna’s life
is in a real mess. However, Nura helps him gain his confidence and reorganize his life. Nura begins to teach
the rich spoiled brat some manners through her down to earth scolding and no-nonsense attitude. The girl

helps him pick up the pieces in his life, from defeat to success. Finally, after a long struggle and hard work,
he can regain his life. He is now in the position of the director of the company that he inherits from his

father.
Many of his friends congratulate him. Johny, his best friend, says, “Congratulations! You deserved
it, man.”

“Thank you very much. This is because you’re always with me,” Juna responds cheerfully.
“I’m very happy for you, Juna. Your company is now back to you,” another friend says.

Juna replies with a happy tone, “Thank you. I cannot forget your help to me.“
