We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both
their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in
streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can
have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite
discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only
one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to

find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.

evaluate, to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teachers.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes the work on individual tasks and assignments, they
can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate.
We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do
this effectively. An advanced pupil can do advanced works; it does not matter what age the child is.

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 following questions.
Long before they can actually speak, babies pay special attention to the speech they hear around
them. Within the first month of their lives, babies' responses to the sound of the human voice will
be different from their responses to other sorts of auditory stimuli. They will stop crying when they
hear a person talking, but not if they hear a bell or the sound of a rattle. At first, the sounds that an
infant notices might be only those words that receive the heaviest emphasis and that often occur at
the ends of utterances. By the time they are six or seven weeks old, babies can detect the difference
between syllables pronounced with rising and falling inflections. Very soon, these differences in
adult stress and intonation can influence babies' emotional states and behavior. Long before they
develop actual language comprehension, babies can sense when an adult is playful or angry,
attempting to initiate or terminate new behavior, and so on, merely on the basis of cues such as the
rate, volume, and melody of adult speech.
Adults make it as easy as they can for babies to pick up a language by exaggerating such cues. One
researcher observed babies and their mothers in six diverse cultures and found that, in all six
languages, the mothers used simplified syntax, short utterances and nonsense sounds, and
transformed certain sounds into baby talk. Other investigators have noted that when mothers talk to
babies who are only a few months old, they exaggerate the pitch, loudness, and intensity of their
words. They also exaggerate their facial expressions, hold vowels longer, and emphasize certain
words.
More significant for language development than their response to general intonation is observation
that tiny babies can make relatively fine distinctions between speech sounds. In other words, babies
enter the world with the ability to make precisely those perceptual discriminations that are
necessary if they are to acquire aural language.
Babies obviously derive pleasure from sound input, too: even as young as nine months they will
listen to songs or stories, although the words themselves are beyond their understanding. For babies,

language is a sensory-motor delight rather than the route to prosaic meaning that it often is for
adults.
Question 52: Which of the following can be inferred about the findings described in paragraph 2?
A. Babies ignore facial expressions in comprehending aural language.
B. Mothers from different cultures speak to their babies in similar ways.
C. Babies who are exposed to more than one language can speak earlier than babies exposed to a
single language.
D. The mothers observed by the researchers were consciously teaching their babies to speak.
Question 53: According to the author, why do babies listen to songs and stories, even though they
cannot understand them?
A. They can remember them easily.
B. They focus on the meaning of their parents' word.
C. They enjoy the sound.
D. They understand the rhythm.
Question 54: The passage mentions all of the followings as the ways adults modify their speech
when talking to babies EXCEPT ______________.
A. speaking with shorter sentences
B. giving all words equal emphasis
C. using meaningless sounds
A. speaking more loudly than normal

A. different
B. surrounding
C. stimulating
D. divided
Question 56: The word "They" refers to ______________.
A. words

B. mothers
C. investigators
D. babies
Question 57: Why does the author mention "a bell and a rattle"?
A. To contrast the reactions of babies to human and nonhuman sounds
B. To give examples of typical toys that babies do not like
C. To explain how babies distinguish between different nonhuman sounds
D. To give examples of sounds that will cause a baby to cry
Question 58: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The differences between a baby's and an adult's ability to comprehend language
B. How babies perceive and respond to the human voice in their earliest stages of language
development
C. The response of babies to sounds other than the human voice
D. How babies differentiate between the sound of the human voice and other sounds
Question 59: The word "emphasize" is closest in meaning to ______________.
A. stress
B. leave out
C. explain
D. repeat
Question 60: What point does the author make to illustrate that babies are born with the ability to
acquire language?
A. Babies exaggerate their own sounds and expressions.
B. Babies begin to understand words in songs.
C. Babies notice even minor differences between speech sounds.
D. Babies are more sensitive to sounds than are adults.

correct answer to each of the following sentences from 31 to 40.
Learning means acquiring knowledge or developing the ability to perform new behaviors. It is
common to think of learning as something that takes place in school, but much of human learning
occurs outside the classroom, and people continue to learn throughout their lives.
Even before they enter school, young children learn to walk, to talk, and to use their hands to
manipulate toys, food, and other objects. They use all of their senses to learn about the sights, sounds,
tastes, and smells in their environments. They learn how to interact with their parents, siblings, friends,
and other people important to their world. When they enter school, children learn basic academic
subjects such as reading, writing, and mathematics. They also continue to learn a great deal outside the
classroom. They learn which behaviors are likely to be rewarded and which are likely to be punished.
They learn social skills for interacting with other children. After they finish school, people must learn
to adapt to the many major changes that affect their lives, such as getting married, raising children, and
finding and keeping a job.
Because learning continues throughout our lives and affects almost everything we do, the study
of learning is important in many different fields. Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate
children. Psychologists, social workers, criminologists, and other human-service workers need to

understand how certain experiences change people’s behaviors. Employers, politicians, and advertisers
make use of the principles of learning to influence the behavior of workers, voters, and consumers.
Learning is closely related to memory, which is the storage of information in the brain.
Psychologists who study memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage
takes place, and how the brain later retrieves knowledge when we need it. In contrast, psychologists


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

who study learning are more interested in behavior and how behavior changes as a result of a person’s
experiences.
There are many forms of learning, ranging from simple to complex. Simple forms of learning
involve a single stimulus. A stimulus is anything perceptible to the senses, such as a sight, sound, smell,
touch, or taste. In a form of learning known as classical conditioning, people learn to associate two
stimuli that occur in sequence, such as lightning followed by thunder. In operant conditioning, people
learn by forming an association between a behavior and its consequences (reward or punishment).
People and animals can also learn by observation - that is, by watching others perform behaviors. More
complex forms of learning include learning languages, concepts, and motor skills.

Culture is a word in common use with complex meanings, and is derived, like the term
broadcasting, from the treatment and care of the soil and of what grows on it. It is directly related to


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

cultivation and the adjectives cultural and cultured are part of the same verbal complex. A person of
culture has identifiable attributes, among them a knowledge of and interest in the arts, literature, and
music. Yet the word culture does not refer solely to such knowledge and interest nor, indeed, to
education. At least from the 19th century onwards, under the influence of anthropologists and
sociologists, the word culture has come to be used generally both in the singular and the plural
(cultures) to refer to a whole way of life of people, including their customs, laws, conventions, and
values.
Distinctions have consequently been drawn between primitive and advanced culture and cultures,
between elite and popular culture, between popular and mass culture, and most recently between
national and global cultures. Distinctions have been drawn too between culture and civilization; the
latter is a word derived not, like culture or agriculture, from the soil, but from the city. The two words
are sometimes treated as synonymous. Yet this is misleading. While civilization and barbarism are
pitted against each other in what seems to be a perpetual behavioural pattern, the use of the word
culture has been strongly influenced by conceptions of evolution in the 19th century and of
development in the 20th century. Cultures evolve or develop. They are not static. They have twists and
turns. Styles change. So do fashions. There are cultural processes. What, for example, the word
cultured means has changed substantially since the study of classical (that is, Greek and Roman)
literature, philosophy, and history ceased in the 20th century to be central to school and university

education. No single alternative focus emerged, although with computers has come electronic culture,
affecting kinds of study, and most recently digital culture. As cultures express themselves in new forms
not everything gets better or more civilized.
The multiplicity of meanings attached to the word made and will make it difficult to define.
There is no single, unproblematic definition, although many attempts have been made to establish one.
The only non-problematic definitions go back to agricultural meaning (for example, cereal culture or
strawberry culture) and medical meaning (for example, bacterial culture or penicillin culture). Since in
anthropology and sociology we also acknowledge culture clashes, culture shock, and counter-culture,
the range of reference is extremely wide.
Question 42: According to the passage, the word culture____.
A. is related to the preparation and use of land for farming
B. develops from Greek and Roman literature and history


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

C. comes from a source that has not been identified
D. derives from the same root as civilization does

A. has a job related to cultivation
B. takes care of the soil and what grows on it
C. has knowledge of arts, literature, and music
D. does a job relevant to education

A. share the same word formation pattern
B. are both related to agriculture and cultivation
C. have nearly the same meaning
D. do not develop from the same meaning
Question 45: It can be inferred from the passage that since the 20th century______.
A. schools and universities have not taught classical literature, philosophy, and history

B. classical literature, philosophy, and history have been considered as core subjects
C. classical literature, philosophy, and history have not been taught as compulsory subjects
