s/
Martin Luther King, Jr., is well known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous
ro
up
speeches, among them is his moving “I Have A Dream” speech. But fewer people know much
/g
about King’s childhood. M.L., as he was called, was born in 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia, at the
.c
om
home of his maternal grandfather. M.L.’s grandfather, the Reverend A.D. Williams, purchased
bo
ok
their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, twenty years before M.L. was born. The Reverend
Williams, an eloquent speaker, played an important role in the community since so many
.fa
ce
people’s lives centered around the church. He allowed his church and his home to be used as a
w
w
meeting place for a number of organizations dedicated to the education and social
w
advancement of blacks. M.L. grew up in this atmosphere, with his home being used as a
community gathering place, and was no doubt influenced by it.(19)
M.L.’s childhood was not especially eventful. His father was a minister and his mother
was a musician. He was the second of three children, and he attended all-black schools in a
black neighborhood. The neighborhood was not poor, however. Auburn Avenue was the main
artery through a prosperous neighborhood that had come to symbolize achievement for
Atlanta’s black people(25). It was an area of banks, insurance companies, builders, jewelers,
tailors, doctors, lawyers, and other black-owner, black-operated businesses, and services.(22)

(ID:103341) 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.
CUTTING THE APRON STRINGS
There is substantial evidence that students going off to college have changed over the
years. For one thing, studies show that they are emotionally closer to their parents and their
parents to them.(27) One thing that means is that they depend on each other more for
D
ai
H
oc
01
happiness. It puts a burden on children for parents to use their children as vehicles for their
own happiness - although today’s young people seem complicit in this arrangement,(30)
perhaps because they’ve known no other way-even if it creates anxiety in the children. That’s
hi
one reason parents like to be involved in their children’s college experiences, (33)and colleges
uO
nT
have had to devise novel ways of getting parents off campus when they transport their kids to
ie
school.
Ta
iL
There’s also evidence that students today seem to be choosing schools with reference to
s/
proximity to home. (29)The closer a student is to home, the easier it is to bring the laundry
ro
up
home and to land in your old bed with tea and sympathy when you have the sniffles. And the
/g
easier it is for parents to visit you at university whenever the mood strikes. The amount of
om
visiting parents do is far more than in generations past.
bo
ok
.c
But in a real sense, students don’t really leave their parents behind. Their parents go to
ce
college right along with them - in their front pockets. That is, the parents are a speed dial
.fa
away by cell phone(32). This, of course, significantly reduces independence. (26)A student
w
doesn’t get the chance to solve minor problems on his own - he just calls Mom or Dad. A
w
w
student has initial problems getting along with a roommate? A roommate doesn’t do laundry as
often as the other roommate wishes? A student gets a C grade on her first paper? Instead of
absorbing the negative information and figuring out how to resolve the problem or how to do
better, the call gets made to home, where Mom or Dad solves the problem, often by calling the
school administration. This kind of behavior is, sadly, commonplace today and is a mark of the
lack of coping skills among students because all the lumps and bumps have been taken out of
life for them until now.

In addition to being tethered to parents, incoming freshmen are now very heavily
connected by cell phone to classmates from high school, who are presumably at other colleges.
So there isn’t the great impetus to mix and venture forth to meet new people, to get out of
one’s comfort zone, to get drawn into new experiences, that has traditionally marked the
beginning of freshman year. The laws of physics still apply, and it is difficult to be meeting
new people and seeking novel experiences while you are talking to your old pals.(34)
