TELEVISION Here in Egypt, television has a powerful hold over people's minds. It is an instrument of leisure, of information and - to a very limited extent - of culture. It does not stop people reading newspapers or books, going to the cinema or theatre or watching videos. But these activities are occasional, irregular and ultimately of secondary importance. Television is one of the main subjects of conversation, at school, in offices, at home and in the street, as well as being written about in all the newspapers. It might be said that the main objective of television is to persuade the maximum number of people to watch it for the maximum amount of time. And how effectively the sitcoms and soap operas do that! I do not think that I have ever seen any other country so totally dominated by these shows. Some of them are Egyptians productions but the majority is American. Each episode, each programme, is a talking point for everyone, young and old alike. Câu 41: Which is the main idea of the passage? A. Television, the rest of the media and American soaps. B. Television, the main subjects of conversation. C. Television and its use. D. Television, an instrument of leisure. Câu 42: What does television have over people's mind? A. An influence. B. A picture. C. An impression. D. A limit. Câu 43: At school or in offices, television is considered as a topic _____. A. for discussion B. for learning C. for people to talk about D. for entertainment Câu 44: What might the main objective of television be? A. To get people away from their work. B. To waste time. C. To allow much time for many people to watch it. D. To get people away from their free time. Câu 45: How often are the sitcoms and soap operas shown on TV? A. Sometimes. B. Rarely. C. Never. D. A lot. 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 questions. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the American educational system was desperately in need of reform. Private schools existed, but only for the very rich. There were very few public schools because of the strong sentiment that children who would grow up to be laborers should not “waste” their time on education but should instead prepare themselves for their life’s work. It was in the face of this public sentiment that educational reformers set about their task. Horace Mann, probably the most famous of the reformers, felt that there was no excuse in a republic for any citizen to be uneducated. As Superintendent of Education in the state of Massachusetts from 1837 to 1848, he initiated various changes, which were soon matched in other school districts around the country. He extended the school year from five to six months and improved the quality of teachers by instituting teacher education and raising teacher salaries. Although these changes did not bring about a sudden improvement in the educational system, they at least increased public awareness as to the need for a further strengthening of the system. Câu 46: The passage implied that to go to a private school, a student needed _______________. A. a high level of intelligence B. a lot of money C. good grades D. a strong educational background Câu 47: According to the passage, Horace Mann wanted a better educational system for Americans because _______________. A. Massachusetts residents needed something to do with their spare time B. all citizens should be educated in a republic C. education at the time was so cheap D. people had nothing else to do except go to school Câu 48: The word “reformers” in the passage mostly means _________. A. people who really enjoy teaching B. people who believe that education is wasted C. people who work for the government D. people who try to change things for the better Câu 49: From 1837 to 1848, Horace Mann _______________. A. worked as a headmaster in a school in the state of Massachusetts B. funded many projects to improve the educational system for Americans C. managed education in the state of Massachusetts D. raised money for the educational development in Massachusetts Câu 50: According to the passage, which sentence is NOT TRUE? A. Horace Mann was a famous US educational reformer. B. Horace Mann brought about changes in many schools in the US. C. Horace Mann began raising teachers’ salaries. D. Horace Mann suggested schools prepare children for their life’s work. --------- THE END -------- Học sinh không được sử dụng tài liệu. Giám thị coi thi không giải thích gì thêm.
