ARMY CLERK ENGLISH MOCK TEST - 3

Read the passage carefully and choose the answer from the given alternatives.

I was late bloomer and always envied those who stood out in high school because I didn't. I learned early on thought that it's essential to set yourself apart from the group. Life is one struggle after another to succeed, particularly when you’re starting out. If your bio data is sitting at the bottom of a pile of junk mail, sometime a distinctive approach will get you noticed, especially if the competition is fierce. Once my partner Jerry and I asked the other freelance writers of a TV serial what characters they hated to write for the most. Everyone said the same thing- they disliked writing for the minor characters because they thought that writing for them wouldn't help them get other jobs. Jerry and I decided that we would write scripts for the minor characters because that's what was needed and we needed to set ourselves apart. In the first script Jerry and I wrote a schoolgirl falls in love with a boy in her class. The producers loved the story. And with that one script, Jerry and I were no longer just another comedy-writing team.
