PART IV: READING

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to answer the questions.
At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the American educational system was
desperately in need of reform. Private schools existed, but only for the very rich. There were
very few public schools because of the strong sentiment that children who would grow up to
be laborers should not “waste” their time on education but should instead prepare themselves
for their life’s work. It was in the face of this public sentiment that educational reformers set
about their task. Horace Mann, probably the most famous of the reformers, felt that there was
no excuse in a republic for any citizen to be uneducated. As Superintendent of Education in
the state of Massachusetts from 1837 to 1848, he initiated various changes, which were soon
matched in other school districts around the country. He extended the school year from five to
six months and improved the quality of teachers by instituting teacher education and raising
teacher salaries. Although these changes did not bring about a sudden improvement in the
educational system, they at least increased public awareness as to the need for a further
strengthening of the system.
32. The passage implied that to go to a private school, what did a student need?
A. a high level of intelligence

B. a strong educational background

C. a lot of money

D. good grades

A. obviously

B. urgently

C. completely

34. What did Horace Mann do from 1837 to 1848?
A. raised money for the educational development in Massachusetts
B. managed education in the state of Massachusetts
C. funded many projects to improve the educational system for Americans
