Education is an issue which concerns many people in the UK as well as round the world In England, Wales and Northern Ireland pupils sit GCSE (General Certificate in Secondary Education) exams followed 2 years later by A (Advanced) levels Pupils in Scotland follow a different system, finishing their time at school with the Higher Leaving Certificate One particular worry - why are boys doing so badly?

Some twenty years ago, the performance of girls and boys in class was compared Boys scored better in exams, so various measures were introduced to improve the performance of girls, including having single sex girl-only classes Now, the situation is reversed, with girls consistently out-performing boys

So, what has gone wrong with boys, and what can be done about it? John Dunsford, leader of the association of head teachers of secondary schools, says that that the academic failure of boys is a problem

which has its roots in society rather than the classroom Girls, more than boys, see education as a passport to a good job On the other hand, according to Penny Lewis, a head teacher, young men lack confidence, which they hide with a show of bravado They’re uncertain about their place in society

Some boys grow up in families where there is no male role model to follow

Moreover, boys may learn in a different way to girls, preferring small amounts of work with immediate deadlines rather than large projects stretching into the distance And education is not seen as

“cool”

As one contributor to a BBC website put it, “Girls achieve more at school because they are

watching the future while the boys are watching the girls.”

This is not just a problem in Britain In a study by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development and UNESCO, girls out-performed boys at reading at the age of 15 in all 45 countries The

UK ranks ninth out of the 45 countries for reading despite the fact that pupils in the UK spend less time reading than in most other countries Interestingly, the study suggested that British children read for pleasure more often than those in other countries

C Boys don’t do well at school because of what happens in class

Question 37: What does the author mean by the phrase “see education as a passport” in the passage?

A Girls try their best to avoid drifting out of school without qualifications and be better at socializing

B Girls see education as a means of broading their knowledge and exposuring to diverse cultures

C Girls regard education as a way of enabling them to go further and do more in life

D Girls think that learning is the key to the opportunity to go to many countries in the world

Question 38: Some boys are not sure of themselves because of

A their lack of family support B their financial capability

C their low self-esteem D their family situations

Question 39: What does the word “cool” in the passage mostly mean?

A interesting B unattractive C fashionable D priceless

correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 43 to 50

The economic growth that many nations in Asia and increasingly Africa have experienced over the past couple of decades has transformed hundreds of millions of lives – almost entirely for the better But

there’s a byproduct to that growth, one that’s evident – or sometimes less than evident – in the smoggy,

smelly skies above cities like Beijing, New Delhi and Jakarta Thanks to new cars and power plants, air

pollution is bad and getting worse in much of the world, and it’s taking a major toll on global health

How big? According to a new analysis published in the Lancet, more than 3.2 million people suffered deaths from air pollution in 2010, the largest number on record That’s up from 800,000 in 2000 And it’s a regional problem: 65% of those deaths occurred in Asia, where the air is choked by diesel soot from cars and trucks, as well as the song from power plants and the dust from endless urban construction

In East Asia and China, 1.2 million people died, as well as another 712,000 in South Asia, including India For the first time ever, air pollution is on the world’s top – 10 list of killers, and it’s moving up the ranks faster than any other factor

So how can air pollution be so damaging? It is the very finest soot – so small that it roots deep within the lungs and then enters the bloodstream – that contributes to most of the public – health toll of air pollution including death Diesel soot, which can also cause cancer, is a major problem because it is concentrated in cities along transportation zones affecting overpopulated areas It is thought to contribute

to half the deaths from air pollution in urban centers For example, 1 in 6 people in the U.S live near a diesel – pollution hot spot like a rail yard, port terminal or freeway

We also know that air pollution may be linked to other non-deadly diseases Fortunately in the U.S and other developed nations, urban air is for the most part cleaner than it was 30 or 40 years ago, thanks

to regulations and new technologies like the catalytic converters that reduce automobile emissions Govemments are also pushing to make air cleaner – see the White House’s move last week to further tighten soot standards It’s not perfect, but we’ve had much more success dealing with air pollution than climate change

Will developing nations like India eventually catch up? Hopefully – though the problem may get worse before it gets better The good news is that it doesn’t take a major technological advance to improve urban air Switching from diesel fuel to unleaded helps, as do newer and cleaner cars which are less likely to send out pollutants Power plants – even ones that burn mineral fuels like coal – can be fitted with pollution – control equipment that, at a price, will greatly reduce smog and other pollutants

But the best solutions may involve urban design In the Guardian, John Vidal notes that Delhi now

has 200 cars per 1,000 people, far more than much richer Asian cities like Hong Kong and Singapore

Developing cities will almost certainly see an increase in car ownership as residents become wealthier – and that doesn’t have to mean deadly air pollution Higher incomes should also lead to tougher environmental regulations, which is exactly what happened in the West We can only hope it happens before the death toll from bad air gets even higher

(Source: http://science.time.com by Bryan Walsh) Question 43: What tends to give rise to the highest death toll according to the passage?

A The lack of tight environmental protection standards

B The world’s serious air pollution such as soot and dust

C The increasing numbers of the diesel cars and trucks

D The frighteningly high death rate from deadly cancer

Question 44: The phrase “taking a major toll” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _

Question 45: All of the following statements are true according to the passage EXCEPT _

A The report found that the number of people suffering deaths from air pollution in 2010 is greater than that in 2000

B The tightening of the emission standards has helped people solve some of the immediate environmental problems, for example, tackle air pollution

C Many efforts have been put into the reduction of the emission of pollutants through the tightening of legislation on new vehicles

D Air pollution may have been responsible for our mental health problems and prematurely robbed us

of our lives

Question 46: According to the passage, which of the following is an example of measure taken to help

generate less emissions?

A Catalytic converters are applied to exhaust systems in automobiles

B People increase the use of vehicles powered by mineral fuels

C Many nations encourage people to avoid densely populated areas

D The government minimizes the number of people using car in major cities

Question 47: The word “byproduct” in paragraph 1 most probably refers to

Question 48: The basic reason why so many people die from air pollution is that

A the diesel soot is too small to be seen

B the diesel soot is much too poisonous to breathe

C the diesel soot roots in lungs and gets into blood

D the diesel soot can also contribute to deadly cancer

Question 49: According to the passage, the writer actually wants to convince the readers that

A the global economic growth is mainly to blame for air pollution and climate change

B the developing countries are repeating the same mistakes as the developed ones made

C the ecological situation and air pollution in India are becoming worse and worse

D the unbeatable air is increasingly becoming a major killer throughout the world

Question 50: By describing urban design as “the best solutions” in the last paragraph, the writer means

that

A the making of tougher environmental regulations alone is of little use

B more sever regulations should be made to handle air pollution

C the urban construction in western developed countries is the best choice

D the pace of development has to be slowed down to reduce air pollution

Many people have forgotten what the world was like before TV But today it has become an

integral part of our lives No medium can compare with TV as a means of information, entertainment and education TV now plays such an important role in so many people’s lives that it is essential for us to try

to decide (36) _ it is bad or good

First of all, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a (37) _ cheap one For a family of 4, for example, it is more convenient as well as cheaper to sit comfortably at home than to

go out They don’t have to pay for expensive tickets All they have to do is to turn on TV and they can

see films, political discussions and the latest exciting football matches Some people say that this is fist

where the danger lies The TV viewers need do nothing: they (38) no choices, they’re completely passive and don’t even use their legs

TV, people often say, informs about current events and the latest developments in science and

politics A lot of good films, music programs have appeared recently on TV (39) _ here again

there is a danger We get to like watching TV so much that it begins to dominate our lives A friend of

mine told me that when his TV set broke he and his family suddenly found that they had much more time

to do things

The most important thing which is really criticizing is poor quality of the programs and its harmful effect on children For example the film “Natural Born Killers” teaches children to kill and there was one accident in France when a group of teenagers kill their parents

There are many arguments for and against TV I think we must understand that TV in itself is

neither good (40) bad TV is as good or as bad as we make it
