The ideas of John Dewey, philosopher and educator, have influenced American thought for over one hundred years Dewey was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout hi life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process with experience and knowledge building on each other
By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the
intellectual leader of the progressive schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience He held that experience is
an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience
Dewey be1ievd that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience ids educative only when it contributes
to the growth of the individual, but it can be miseducative if it distorts the growth of further
experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience
During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were
influential both during his lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and diversity of Dewey’s writings and his influence on society place him among American’s great thinkers

The New York Times is a daily newspaper published in New York City For a long time, it
has been the newspaper of record in the United States and one of the world’s great newspapers Its strength is in its editorial excellence; it has never been the largest newspaper
in terms of circulation
The Times was established in 1851 as a penny paper whose editors wanted to report the
news in a restrained and objective fashion It enjoyed early success as its editors set a
pattern for the future by appealing to a cultured, intellectual readership instead of a mass audience However, in the late nineteenth century, it came into competition with more
popular, colorful, if not lurid, newspapers in New York City Despite price increases, the Times
was losing $1,000 a week when Adolph Simon Ochs bought it in 1896
Ochs built the Times into an internationally respected daily He hired Carr Van Anda as
editor Van Anda placed greater stress than ever on full reporting of the news of the day, and
his reporters maintained and emphasized existing good coverage of international news The
management of the paper decided to eliminate fiction from the paper, added a Sunday magazine section, and reduced the paper’s price back to a penny In April 1912, the paper took many risks to report every aspect of the sinking of the Titanic This greatly enhanced its
prestige, and in its coverage of two world wars, the Times continued to enhance its reputation
for excellence in world news
In 1971, the Times was given a copy of the so-called “Pentagon Papers,” a secret
government study of U.S involvement in the Vietnam War When it published the report, it became involved in several lawsuits The U.S Supreme Court found that the publication was protected by the freedom-of- the-press clause in the First Amendment of the U.S Constitution Later in the 1970s, the paper, under Adolph Ochs’s grandson, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, introduced sweeping changes in the organization of the newspaper and its staff and brought out a national edition transmitted by satellite to regional printing plants
Question 44: What is the main idea of the passage?
A The New York Times publishes the best fiction by American writers.
B The New York Times became highly respected throughout the world.
C The New York Times lost its prestige after the Vietnam War.
D The New York Times broadcasts its news to TV stations via satellite.
Question 45: It can be inferred from the passage that the circulation of the Times is
A not the largest in the world B the worst in the world.
C not the best in the world D the smallest in the world.
Question 46: Which phrase is closest in meaning to the word “restrained” as it is used in
paragraph 2?
A With self-control B Put in prison C Without education D In handcuffs Question 47: What word or phrase does the word “his” as used in paragraph 3 refer to?
Trang 5A Van Anda B News of the day C Reporters D International news Question 48: To improve its circulation, the management of the Times did all of the following EXCEPT .
A increased the number of lurid stories, even if they were not true.
B added a Sunday magazine section.
C emphasized good coverage of international news.
D eliminated fiction from the paper.
Question 49: The passage implies that the newspaper’s reputation
A decreased when it lowered its price to a penny
B grew because Adolph Ochs bought it in 1896
C decreased because it could not compete with other New York papers
D increased because of its coverage of the Titanic’s sinking.
