A SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHER I am an ordinary teacher like many others, but my students are those with severe learning difficulties – some have speech or hearing impairment, while some others have mental problems. There are 15 children in my class, aged between 10 and 12. The teaching team consists of me and two assistants. Just like any child, my students are good at one thing and poor at another. If you ask for a yellow block, then you can be moved to tears. It seems a very simple task to a 5-year-old kid, but it is really a huge achievement to my children. Looking after each other, being able to use the phone, and being able to buy a loaf of bread – these can only be done after you have been working with them for years. Every day, I work with my lovely students. We have some specialized equipments such as audiotapes and videotapes to assist their learning. There are always better facilities to wish for, such as a computer with special educational software prorams. Our school is not rich, but many others have got less than what we have, so I can’t complain. I believe good teachers can do a great deal with very little. Like many other special education teachers, I am constantly under stress due to heavy work loads. Some of my colleagues gave up and found other jobs, but I won’t. I enjoy working with students with disabilities- nothing can compete with the joy I have when my children can perform a difficult task. T F 1 .The writer’s students can do simple tasks easily. 2. At this special school, students learn basic skills for survival 3. This school has a lot of specialized facilities, including a computer. 4. A special education teacher has to work very hard. 5. Many special education teachers are under stress. 6.The writer will find an other job although he likes his work. Passage 2 Read the passage and choose best answer for the questions. CONSERVING THE WORLD’S NATURAL RESOURCES. In the decade of 1970s, the United Nations organized serveral important meetings on the human environment to study a very serious problem. We humans are destroying the world around us. We are using up all of our natural resources. We must learn to conserve them, or life will be very bad for our grandchildren. These are several major parts to this problem. Distribution. Scientists say there is enough water in the world for everyone, but some countries have a lot of water and some have only a little. Some areas get all their rain during one season. The rest of the year is dry. There are huge forests in the Amazon area of Brazil. In other parts of the world there is only desert. Petroleum. We are using up the world’s petroleum. We use it in our cars and to heat our buildings in winter. Farmers use petrochemicals to make the soil rich. They use them to kill insects that eat plants. These chemicals go into rivers and lakes and kill the fish there. Thousands of people also die from these chemicals every year. Chemicals also go into the air and pollute it . Winds carry this pollted air to other countries and other continents. Poverty. Poor farmers use the same land over and over. The land needs a rest so it will be better next year. However, the farmers must have food this year. Poor people cut down trees for firewood. In 3 some areas when trees are gone, the land becomes desert. However people need wood to cook their food. Poor people cannot save the environment for the future. We now have the information and the ability to solve these huge problems. However, this is not a problem for one country or one area of the world. It is a problem for all humans. The people and the nations of the world must work together to conserve the world’s resources. No one controls the future, but we all help make it. 1. We humans are destroying our________________. A. environment B. farms C. decade D. deserts 2. Good distribution means______________. A. having things in the right places at the right time B. cutting down forest and selling them to other countries C. building water system to carry water to farm D. conserving our natural resources 3.

A. they don’t have petrochemicals to kill insects B. they don’t have enough land to let it some of it rest each year. C. they need more water D. they need firewood 5. Which of these statements is NOT true? A. People must work together to save environment. B. We have the ability to solve environment problems. C. We control the future. D. We help make the future.
