Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

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 particularworry - 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 variousmeasures were introduced to improve the performance of girls, including having single sex girl only classes Now, thesituation 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 headteachers 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 andUNESCO, girls out-performed boys at reading at the age of 15 in all 45 countries The UK ranks ninth out of the 45 countriesfor reading despite the fact that pupils in the UK spend less time reading than in most other countries Interestingly, the studysuggested that British children read for pleasure more often than those in other countries

A from time to time B for good and all C for a short time D from the beginning

Question 42: My wife will never admit that she's wrong, even when she knows she is She's so pig-headed.

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 Jakara

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 airpollution in 2010, the largest number on record That's up from 800,000 in 2000 And it's a regional problem: 65% of thosedeaths occurred in Asia, where the air is choked by diesel soot from cars and trucks, as well as the song from power plantsand the dust from endless urban construction In East Asia and China, 1.2 million people died, as well as another 712,000 inSouth 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 theranks 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 thenenters the bloodstream - that contributes to most of the public - health toll of air pollution including death Diesel soot, whichcan also cause cancer, is a major problem because it is concentrated in cities along transportation zones affecting

Trang 4

overpopulated areas It is thought to contribute to half the deaths from air pollution in urban centers For example, 1 in 6people 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 developednations, urban air is for the most part cleaner than it was 30 or 40 years ago, thanks to regulations and new technologies likethe catalytic converters that reduce automobile emissions Governments are also pushing to make air cleaner - see the WhiteHouse's move last week to further tighten soot standards It's not perfect, but we've had much more success dealing with airpollution 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 tounleaded helps, as do newer and cleaner cars which are less likely to send out pollutants Power plants - even ones that burnmineral fuels like coal - can be fitted with pollution - control equipment that, at a price, will greatly reduce smog and otherpollutants

But the best solutions may involve urban design In the Guardian, John Vidal notes that Delhi now has 200 cars per 1,000people, far more than much richer Asian cities like Hong Kong and Singapore Developing cities will almost certainly see anincrease in car ownership as residents become wealthier - and that doesn't have to mean deadly air pollution Higher incomesshould also lead to tougher environmental regulations, which is exactly what happened in the West We can only hope ithappens before the death toll from bad air gets even higher
