2. Young people should have the right to control and direct their own learning, that is, to decide what they want to learn, and when, where, how, how much, how fast, and with what help they want to learn it. To be still more specific, I want them to have the right to decide if, when, how much, and by whom they want to be taught and the right to decide whether they want to learn in a school and if so which one and for how much of the time. No human right, except the right to life itself, is more fundamental than this. A persons freedom of learning is part of his freedom of thought, even more basic than his freedom of speech. If we take from someone his right to decide what he will be curious about, we destroy his freedom of thought. We say, in effect, you must think not about what interests and concerns you, but about what interests and concerns us. This right of each of us to control our own learning is now in danger. When we put into our laws the highly authoritarian notion that someone should and could decide what all young people were to learn and beyond that, could do whatever might seem necessary (which now includes dosing them with drugs) to compel them to learn it, we took a long step down a very steep and dangerous path. The requirement that a child go to school, for about six hours a day, 180 days a year, for about ten years, whether or not he learns anything there, whether or not he already knows it or could learn it faster or better somewhere else, is such a gross violation of civil liberties that few adults would stand for it. But the child who resists is treated as a criminal. With this requirement we created an industry, an army of people whose whole work was to tell young people what they had to learn and to try to make them learn it. Some of these people, wanting to exercise even more power over others, or to be even more "helpful," are now beginning to say, "If compulsory education is good for children, why wouldnt it be good for everyone? If it is a good thing, how can there be too much of it?" They are beginning to talk, as one man did on a nationwide TV show, about "womb-to-tomb" schooling. If hours of homework every night are good for the young, why wouldnt they be good for us all―they would keep us away from the TV set and other frivolous pursuits. Some group of experts, somewhere, would be glad to decide what we all ought to know and then very so often check up on us to make sure we knew it―with, of course, appropriate penalties if we did not. Question:The passage implies that _______.
A. the right of controlling ones own learning is not a human right
B. some people are doing the kind of learning which they do not want
C. interest plays an important role in learning
D. learning is becoming more and more dangerous

4. Yhudi Menuhin, who died in Berlin on March 12, 1999, at the age of 82, was a child prodigy who fulfilled his promise to become one of the worlds foremost violinists before extending his range to teaching and conducting. The gently spoken U.S.-born virtuoso became as renowned for his devotion to humane causes as for his mastery of the violin. The spotlight has been on him since his debut at seven in 1924. By the time he was 13, he had performed in Paris, London and New York. In Berlin, his performance prompted physicist Albert Einstein to exclaim, "Now I know there is a God in Heaven." Reportedly the worlds highest paid musician in the 1930s, his striving for perfection made him a legend. Menuhin said the violin made its own demands, "Almost like a pagan goddess, exacting a certain tribute." When he was 38, one New York newspaper wrote, "The freshness and unique purity of his playing is exhilarating. No other violinist has such speaking eloquence in the tone alone." He gave up public violin performances in his 70s. His hearing was a little impaired by then and he had taken on many more interests. But his conducting was still full of energy and his travel schedule grueling. "I feel that what Ive learned in music I can apply to a wide repertoire, which is fun because I am exploring new terrain," he said in an interview at the time of his 80th birthday. "But I feel no desire now to spend hours working away again at something which I myself in the past and other people can play far better than I can now. I dont see the point." A British citizen since 1985 and a life peer since 1993―Baron Menuhin of Stoke dAbernon in the County of Surrey―he had a school in England and an academy in Switzerland for young musicians, whom he often conducts. He has also helped found various musical festivals, held the Nehru Peace Prize and was a goodwill ambassador for UNESCO. While pursuing interests such as the environment, organic farming, alternative medicine, education and the plight of gypsies, he sticks to a long-standing healthy diet and yoga. "I dont squander my energies. Keep myself in fairly good trim. I stand on my head every morning. Conducting is a wonderful exercise because it uses every faculty," he says. Question:The above passage discusses ___________.
A. how Menuhin worked hard to succeed
B. the legend of Menuhin
C. Menuhin as a musician
D. Menuhin as a successful violinist and a statesman

5. I get jumpy inside when I get jealous and I find it hard to control that. At first I try to avoid it, try to pretend its not there. Mostly that works for me; my jealous feelings are fleeting things anyway. They never last very long. I know that jealousy is real and I dont want to deny it in me, but I dont like the physical feeling it gives me. I sometimes like the feelings behind the jealousy and being made to feel jealous. It says to me that I care enough, like someone enough to be moved in that way. It means that I am still in touch with someone in a relationship and that the relationship is important to me, whether its a male friend or a woman. When I am jealous its as if someone was intruding on some private territory. But once I understand whats happening I can talk about it with the people involved and understand its not threatening to my relationship, it seems okay. It seems like me giving permission to come into something that is personal and private. It can start out to be very private, but that can be negotiated. Sometimes I wish I could talk about it more with the person that causes me to be jealous, but sometimes I dont think thats a way I should be and I dont talk about it. Anyhow, jealousy is real and I dont want to hide it. Sometimes I dont want to talk about it because the person Im dealing with is not important enough for me to spend the time and energy it would take to straighten things out. If its someone I care about and am going to be spending more time with, I think I can and would talk about whats bothering me. When I get down to it, I think my jealousy has to do with low self-esteem, low self-concept or feeling inadequate. Mostly its built around insecurity. But I dont know if Ill ever become that secure as to not experience some jealousy. I dont want anyone to be that meaningless to me. It seems kind of dangerous to me to be that sure. Question:When he gets jealous, sometimes he will _________.
A. refuse to talk about it
B. try to hide it from others
C. talk about it with someone who can help him sort things out
D. discuss about it with his friends

10. Lets address the question of whether speed reading is even a desirable goal. I am an avid fiction reader. Consciously or unconsciously, readers of fiction appreciate the beauty in good writing. Occasionally I will read a passage or sentence over to be impressed by the opening sentences of Ernest Hemingways The Old Man and the Sea, The Dark, and Herman. If I was a determined speed reader, I would never have the time to appreciate these beautiful passages. And Id never have the time to savor the development of a character like Rhett Butler, the Great Gatsby or Captain Ahab. Good writers must be read carefully and thoughtfully to be fully appreciated. To carry the question of the need for rapid reading a bit further, lets consider the technical or educational material most of us must read for our jobs. If you work in a technical field―and most business and professional people do―youd better read slowly and carefully. Almost all businesses today are subject to federal regulations to some degree. If you must read the Federal Register, the Code of Federal Regulations, the OSHA Handbook or other technical materials related directly to your job, Id urge you to take your time. A misreading could be costly or damaging to your firm. On the other hand, newspapers, news magazines and other publications should be read with some degree of speed. Heres where a general knowledge of speed reading techniques might be useful. Especially since that is the most common type of reading we do. Anyone can improve their reading efficiently. To do so, you must learn some basic techniques and then consciously apply them. Perhaps an expensive course would help you, but an inexpensive paperback and concentrated practice might provide as much long-term benefit. In any case, you lose nothing by trying the self-help approach. Question:Technical materials should be read carefully because _________.
A. they are usually difficult to understand
B. they are related to federal regulations
C. they are an uncommon type of reading
D. a misreading may do harm to your work

15. Young people should have the right to control and direct their own learning, that is, to decide what they want to learn, and when, where, how, how much, how fast, and with what help they want to learn it. To be still more specific, I want them to have the right to decide if, when, how much, and by whom they want to be taught and the right to decide whether they want to learn in a school and if so which one and for how much of the time.

No human right, except the right to life itself, is more fundamental than this. A persons freedom of learning is part of his freedom of thought, even more basic than his freedom of speech. If we take from someone his right to decide what he will be curious about, we destroy his freedom of thought. We say, in effect, you must think not about what interests and concerns you, but about what interests and concerns us. This right of each of us to control our own learning is now in danger. When we put into our laws the highly authoritarian notion that someone should and could decide what all young people were to learn and beyond that, could do whatever might seem necessary (which now includes dosing them with drugs) to compel them to learn it, we took a long step down a very steep and dangerous path. The requirement that a child go to school, for about six hours a day, 180 days a year, for about ten years, whether or not he learns anything there, whether or not he already knows it or could learn it faster or better somewhere else, is such a gross violation of civil liberties that few adults would stand for it. But the child who resists is treated as a criminal. With this requirement we created an industry, an army of people whose whole work was to tell young people what they had to learn and to try to make them learn it. Some of these people, wanting to exercise even more power over others, or to be even more "helpful," are now beginning to say, "If compulsory education is good for children, why wouldnt it be good for everyone? If it is a good thing, how can there be too much of it?" They are beginning to talk, as one man did on a nationwide TV show, about "womb-to-tomb" schooling. If hours of homework every night are good for the young, why wouldnt they be good for us all―they would keep us away from the TV set and other frivolous pursuits. Some group of experts, somewhere, would be glad to decide what we all ought to know and then very so often check up on us to make sure we knew it―with, of course, appropriate penalties if we did not. Question:The current compulsory education system for children ________ most adults.
A. works well with
B. is not liked by
C. is accepted by
D. is understood by

4. Yhudi Menuhin, who died in Berlin on March 12, 1999, at the age of 82, was a child prodigy who fulfilled his promise to become one of the worlds foremost violinists before extending his range to teaching and conducting. The gently spoken U.S.-born virtuoso became as renowned for his devotion to humane causes as for his mastery of the violin. The spotlight has been on him since his debut at seven in 1924. By the time he was 13, he had performed in Paris, London and New York. In Berlin, his performance prompted physicist Albert Einstein to exclaim, "Now I know there is a God in Heaven." Reportedly the worlds highest paid musician in the 1930s, his striving for perfection made him a legend. Menuhin said the violin made its own demands, "Almost like a pagan goddess, exacting a certain tribute." When he was 38, one New York newspaper wrote, "The freshness and unique purity of his playing is exhilarating. No other violinist has such speaking eloquence in the tone alone." He gave up public violin performances in his 70s. His hearing was a little impaired by then and he had taken on many more interests. But his conducting was still full of energy and his travel schedule grueling. "I feel that what Ive learned in music I can apply to a wide repertoire, which is fun because I am exploring new terrain," he said in an interview at the time of his 80th birthday. "But I feel no desire now to spend hours working away again at something which I myself in the past and other people can play far better than I can now. I dont see the point." A British citizen since 1985 and a life peer since 1993―Baron Menuhin of Stoke dAbernon in the County of Surrey―he had a school in England and an academy in Switzerland for young musicians, whom he often conducts. He has also helped found various musical festivals, held the Nehru Peace Prize and was a goodwill ambassador for UNESCO. While pursuing interests such as the environment, organic farming, alternative medicine, education and the plight of gypsies, he sticks to a long-standing healthy diet and yoga. "I dont squander my energies. Keep myself in fairly good trim. I stand on my head every morning. Conducting is a wonderful exercise because it uses every faculty," he says. Question:The above passage discusses ___________.
A. how Menuhin worked hard to succeed
B. the legend of Menuhin
C. Menuhin as a musician
D. Menuhin as a successful violinist and a statesman

5. I get jumpy inside when I get jealous and I find it hard to control that. At first I try to avoid it, try to pretend its not there. Mostly that works for me; my jealous feelings are fleeting things anyway. They never last very long. I know that jealousy is real and I dont want to deny it in me, but I dont like the physical feeling it gives me. I sometimes like the feelings behind the jealousy and being made to feel jealous. It says to me that I care enough, like someone enough to be moved in that way. It means that I am still in touch with someone in a relationship and that the relationship is important to me, whether its a male friend or a woman. When I am jealous its as if someone was intruding on some private territory. But once I understand whats happening I can talk about it with the people involved and understand its not threatening to my relationship, it seems okay. It seems like me giving permission to come into something that is personal and private. It can start out to be very private, but that can be negotiated. Sometimes I wish I could talk about it more with the person that causes me to be jealous, but sometimes I dont think thats a way I should be and I dont talk about it. Anyhow, jealousy is real and I dont want to hide it. Sometimes I dont want to talk about it because the person Im dealing with is not important enough for me to spend the time and energy it would take to straighten things out. If its someone I care about and am going to be spending more time with, I think I can and would talk about whats bothering me. When I get down to it, I think my jealousy has to do with low self-esteem, low self-concept or feeling inadequate. Mostly its built around insecurity. But I dont know if Ill ever become that secure as to not experience some jealousy. I dont want anyone to be that meaningless to me. It seems kind of dangerous to me to be that sure. Question:When he gets jealous, sometimes he will _________.
A. refuse to talk about it
B. try to hide it from others
C. talk about it with someone who can help him sort things out
D. discuss about it with his friends

10. Lets address the question of whether speed reading is even a desirable goal. I am an avid fiction reader. Consciously or unconsciously, readers of fiction appreciate the beauty in good writing. Occasionally I will read a passage or sentence over to be impressed by the opening sentences of Ernest Hemingways The Old Man and the Sea, The Dark, and Herman. If I was a determined speed reader, I would never have the time to appreciate these beautiful passages. And Id never have the time to savor the development of a character like Rhett Butler, the Great Gatsby or Captain Ahab. Good writers must be read carefully and thoughtfully to be fully appreciated. To carry the question of the need for rapid reading a bit further, lets consider the technical or educational material most of us must read for our jobs. If you work in a technical field―and most business and professional people do―youd better read slowly and carefully. Almost all businesses today are subject to federal regulations to some degree. If you must read the Federal Register, the Code of Federal Regulations, the OSHA Handbook or other technical materials related directly to your job, Id urge you to take your time. A misreading could be costly or damaging to your firm. On the other hand, newspapers, news magazines and other publications should be read with some degree of speed. Heres where a general knowledge of speed reading techniques might be useful. Especially since that is the most common type of reading we do. Anyone can improve their reading efficiently. To do so, you must learn some basic techniques and then consciously apply them. Perhaps an expensive course would help you, but an inexpensive paperback and concentrated practice might provide as much long-term benefit. In any case, you lose nothing by trying the self-help approach. Question:Technical materials should be read carefully because _________.
A. they are usually difficult to understand
B. they are related to federal regulations
C. they are an uncommon type of reading
D. a misreading may do harm to your work
