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 from 30 to 34.

Perhaps it was his own lack of adequate schooling that inspired Horace Mann to work so hard for the important reforms in education that he accomplished. While he was still a boy, his father and older brother died, and he became responsible for supporting his family. Like most of the children in his town, he attended school only two or three months a year. Later, with the help of several teachers, he was able to study law and became a member of the Massachusetts bar, but he never forgot those early struggles.

While serving in Massachusetts legislature, he signed a historic education bill that set up a state board of education. Without regret, he gave up his successful legal practice and political career to become the first secretary of the board. There he exercised an enormous influence during the critical period of reconstruction that brought into existence the American graded elementary school as substitute for the older distinct school system. Under his leadership, the curriculum was restructured, the school year was increased to a minimum of six months, and mandatory schooling was extended to age sixteen. Other important reforms included the establishment of state normal schools for teacher training, institutes for in-service teacher education, and lyceums for adult education. He was also instrument in improving salaries for teachers and creating school libraries.

Mann’s ideas about school reform were developed and distributed in twelve annual reports to the state of Massachusetts that he wrote during his tenure as secretary of education. Considered quite radical at the time, the Massachusetts reforms later served as a model for the nation. Mann was recognized as the farther of public education.

How were Mann’s educational reforms distributed? 

A. In twelve annual reports to the state of Massachusetts. 

B. In reports that he wrote for national distribution

C. In speeches that he made throughout the country. 

D. In books that could be found in school libraries.

D. Ở các quyển sách có thể tìm thấy trong thư viện.

Thông tin: Mann’s ideas about school reform were developed and distributed in twelve annual reports to the state of Massachusetts that he wrote during his tenure as secretary of education.

Tạm dịch: Ý tưởng của Mann về việc cải cách hệ thống trường học được phát triển và phân bổ trong mười hai bản báo cáo thường niên gửi về bang Massachusetts 

Dịch bài đọc:

Có lẽ chính việc không được học hành đầy đủ đã truyền cảm hứng cho Horace Mann làm việc không mệt mỏi để đem lại những cải cách quan trọng trong ngành giáo dục. Khi ông còn là một đứa trẻ, cha và anh trai của ông qua đời, và ông trở thành trụ cột chính trong gia đình. Cũng như hầu hết bọn trẻ trong thị trấn, ông chỉ tới trường tầm hai hay ba lần một năm. Sau này, được một số thầy cô giáo giúp đỡ, ông có điều kiện học luật và trở thành một thành viên của tòa án bang Massachusetts, nhưng ông không bao giờ quên được những khó khăn thời nhỏ.

Trong khi đang phục vụ tại cơ quan lập pháp của bang Massachusetts, ông đã ký vào một bản dự luật giáo dục mang tính lịch sử về việc thành lập Hội đồng giáo dục cho bang. Không hề hối tiếc, ông đã từ bỏ nghề luật và sự nghiệp chính trị đang rất thành công của mình để trở thành thư ký đầu tiên của hội đồng nói trên.

Ở đó ông đã tiến hành hàng loạt những thay đổi to lớn trong thời kỳ cốt lõi của việc tái xây dựng, do đó đã khai sinh ra hệ thống giáo dục tiểu học có phân khối lớp ở Mỹ để thay thế cho hệ thống giáo dục cũ. Dưới sự điều hành của ông, các chương trình học được cải tổ, thời gian cho một năm học được kéo dài, ngắn nhất là sáu tháng, và bắt buộc mọi trẻ em dưới 16 tuổi phải tới trường. Một số các cải cách quan trọng khác bao gồm việc thành lập ra những trường chuẩn tắc của bang để huấn luyện nghề nghiệp cho giáo viên, các học viện đào tạo giáo viên tại chức, và những nơi học tập dành cho người lớn. Ông cũng góp phần tăng lương cho các giáo viên và xây dựng các thư viện trong trường học.

 

Ý tưởng của Mann về việc cải cách hệ thống trường học được phát triển và phân bổ trong mười hai bản báo cáo thường niên gửi về bang Massachusetts mà ông viết trong thời kỳ nắm giữ chức vụ thư ký Hội đồng giáo dục. Được xem là khá cấp tiến vào thời điểm đó, các cải cách của bang Massachusetts sau này được đem ra làm hình mẫu cho cả đất nước. Mann được công nhận là cha đẻ của nền giáo dục công lập.

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   from   22  to  26

A.   Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.

The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the mast impressive Seven Wonders of the World. Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake TonIe Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia, Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century. The ruins of Angkor are documented as same .of the mast impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only beginning to ponder. The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water.

One possible explanation far the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to do with the inhabitants' irrigation system. The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River. Once filled, they were used to irrigate the surrounding rice patties and farmland during the course of the year. Farmers were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop. Without consistent irrigation, the farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production.

Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs and canals broke down. The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces required an enormous amount of physical labor. In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor. In order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently. After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity. Soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply. With less food available, the people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle. Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure.

22. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Modern day agricultural procedures in Cambodia.

B. A possible explanation for the, decline of a civilization.

C. The essential role water plays in farming.

D. Religious temples of the ancient Khmer Empire.

23. The passage preceding the passage most likely discusses ______.

A. architecture of ancient Asian civilization

B. religious practices of the people of Angkor

C. the form of government practiced by the Khmer Empire

D. the other six wonders of the world

24. According to the passage, Lake Tonle Sap in Cambodia ______.

A. is an enormous fresh body of water in Asia

B. was unable to supply enough fish for the people of Angkor

C. became polluted due to a population explosion

D. is one of the Seven Wonders of the World

25. Why does the author mention the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs?

A. They supplied irrigation from the Indian Ocean.

B. They became non-functional due to overuse.

C. They were destroyed by nearby warrior tribes.

D. They helped transport the sandstones for constructing temples.

26. It can be inferred from the passage that the inhabitants of the Khmer Empire ______.

A. were intentionally starved by the farmers

B. lost their food source due to excess rainfall

C. supplemented their diets with 'meat hunted in the nearby jungles

D. depended upon rice as their main source of food

27. All the following are mentioned as events that can affect food supply EXCEPT.

A. erosion of soil                                       B. contamination of soil

C. reduction of nutrients                            D. loss of water supply
