C Reading
Bài 1 Read the following passage and then choose the best answer.
It is commonly believed that school is where people go to get an education Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school The difference between schooling and education implied by this remark is important
Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling Education knows no limits It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in the kitchen or on a tractor It includes both the formal learning that takes place in school and the whole universe of informal learning The agent (doer) of education can vary from respected grandparents to the people arguing about politics
on the radio, from a child to a famous scientist Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises A chance conversation with
a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions People receive education from infancy on Education, then, is a very broad,
Trang 8inclusive term It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral part of one's entire life
Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take assigned seats, are taught by
an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught For example, high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling

Bài 2 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.
In my experience, freshmen today are different from those I knew when I started as
a counselor and professor 25 years ago College has always been demanding both academically and socially But students now are less mature and often not ready for the responsibility of being in college
It is really too easy to point the finger at parents who protect their children from life’s obstacle Parents, who handle every difficulty and every other responsibility for their children writing admission essays to picking college courses, certainly may contribute to their children’s lack of coping strategies But we can look even more broadly to the social trends of today
How many people do you know who are on medication to prevent anxiety or depression? The number of students who arrive at college already medicated for unwanted emotions has increased dramatically in the past 10 years We, as a society,
Trang 12don’t want to “feel” anything unpleasant and we certainly don’t want our children
to “suffer”
The resulting problem is that by not experiencing negative emotions, one does not learn the necessary skills to tolerate and negotiate adversity As a psychologist, I
am well aware of the fact that some individuals suffer from depression and anxiety and can benefit from treatment, but I question the growing number of medicated adolescents today
Our world is more stressful in general because of the current economic and political realities, but I don’t believe that the college experience itself is more intense today than that of the past 10 years What I do think is that many students are often not prepared to be young “adults” with all the responsibilities of life
What does this mean for college faculty and staff? We are required to assist in the basic parenting of these students – the student who complains that the professor didn’t remind her of the due date for an assignment that was clearly listed on the syllabus and the student who cheats on an assignment in spite of careful instructions about plagiarism
As college professors, we have to explain what it means to be an independent college student before we can even begin to teach As parents and teachers we should expect young people to meet challenges To encourage them in this direction, we have to step back and let them fail and pick themselves up and move forward This approach needs to begin at an early age so that college can actually
be a passage to independent adulthood
Question 1 According to the writer, students today are different from those she knew in that they are
A too ready for college B not as mature
C not so academic D responsible for their work
Đáp án: B
Thông tin: "But students now are less mature and often not ready for the
responsibility of being in college."
