In today's competitive world, what responsible parents would not want to give their children the best possible start in life? For this reason, many parents want their children, often as young as ten months old, to become familiar with computers. They seem to think that if their children grow up with computers, they will be better equipped to face the challenges of the future.

No one has proved that computers make children more creative or more intelligent. The truth may even be the opposite. Educational psychologists claim that too much exposure to computers, especially for the very young, may negatively affect normal brain development. Children gain valuable experience of the world from their interaction with physical objects. Ten- month-old babies may benefit more from bumping their heads or putting various objects in their mouths than they will from staring at eye-catching cartoons. A four-year-old child can improve hand-eye coordination and understand cause and effect better by experimenting with a crayon than by moving a cursor around a computer screen. So, as educational psychologists suggest, instead of government funding going to more and more computer classes, it might be better to devote resources to music and art programs.

It is ludicrous to think that children will fall behind if they are not exposed to computers from an early age. Time is too precious to spend with a "mouse". Now is the time when they should be out there learning to ride a bike. There will be time later on for them to start banging away at keyboards.

Câu 41: Why do parents want their children to learn how to use a computer from an early age?

A. Because they want their children to be well prepared for their future.

B. Because they are afraid their children will become competitive.

C. Because they believe their children will have difficulty learning to use one if they don't start early.

D. Because this is what all the other parents seem to do.

Câu 42: Children who spend a lot of time on their computers _________________

A. tend to like music and art more than those who don't.

B. tend to have more accidents than those who don't.

C. do not necessarily make more progress than those who don't.

D. will suffer from brain damage.

Câu 43: The author implies that children learn better _________________

A. when they hold and feel things around them.

B. after they have developed hand-eye coordination.

C. as they get older.

D. when they use a computer.

Câu 44: What would be an appropriate title for this passage?

A. Computers in schools B. Never too early to start

C. More computers mean brighter future D. Let kids be kids

Câu 45: What is true according to the passage?

A. There is no evidence that children who use computers are more clever than those who do not.

B. It is better for children to take computer lessons than art lessons.

C. Computers seriously harm children's eyesight.

D. Parents should not put off buying a computer for their children.

Câu 46: What does the word "ludicrous" in the third paragraph (first sentence) mean?

A. suitable B. sensible C. humorous D. ridiculous

Câu 47: What does the word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A. time B. children C. computers D. mouses

Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions. Children can benefit a lot by helping out at home. Doing chores helps children learn skills they can use in their adult lives, like preparing meals, cleaning the house or doing the garden. Being involved in chores also gives children experience of relationship skills like communicating clearly or working as a team. It also allows them to feel valued and competent. And sharing housework can also help families work better and reduce family stress. When children help out, chores get done quicker and parents have less to do. This frees up time for the family to do fun things together. As a result, family life is more pleasant when everyone shares the chores. It’s best to start by choosing chores that work for children’s ages and abilities. Getting children into the habit of doing housework can begin as young as the age of three, by asking them to put away their toys when they’ve done playing with them. Older children can help with setting the table, cleaning, cooking and so on. Teenagers can help with preparing or cooking dinner, babysitting their younger siblings or shopping for groceries. However, there are some children who are motivated to do chores for pocket money. It might not be a good idea. Instead of linking chores to pocket money, parents can praise children’s positive behaviours and give them small rewards like choosing the TV programmes or having a special meal. 31. What is the main idea of the first paragraph? A. Parents should teach children to do housework. B. There are many advantages of children sharing housework. C. There are lots of household chores that children can do. D. Children can learn many skills by doing housework. 32. Sharing housework helps reduce family stress by __________. A. teaching kids how to communicate clearly B. helping children to grow up C. allowing children to work in teams D. giving family members more free time to spend together 33. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Giving children chores can help reduce the workload for parents. B. Parents should ask children to do chores that are suitable for their ages. C. 3-year-old children can help parents with some simple chores. D. Teenagers often do chores so they can gain life experience. 34. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Parents shouldn’t pay their kids for chores. B. Only teenagers can babysit their brothers and sisters. C. Parents should ask their children to share the housework when they are young. D. When parents work, children have to do the household chores. 35. The word ‘valued’ in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________. A. expensive B. great C. appreciated D. costly V. Writing Rewrite the following sentences without changing their meaning. Use the given word(s) if any. 36. I have an appointment with the dentist at 3 o’clock this afternoon. (SEEING) => ______________________________________________________. 37. She is considering going on holiday next month. (THINKING) => ______________________________________________________. 38. It’s unusual for Alex to come home late. (USUALLY) => ______________________________________________________. Use the given words to make complete sentences. 39.

II. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.

Family types vary in different countries and among different cultures. In Western, industrialized societies, the nuclear family ranks as the most common family type. It consists of a father, a mother and their children. But nuclear families exist together with many other types of family units. In the single-parent family, for example, a mother or a father heads the family alone. A blended family is formed when a divorced or widowed parent remarries. As divorce rates have risen, the number of single-parent and blended families has increased.

In many parts of the world, parents and children live together with other family members under the same roof. These complex families usually contain several generations of family members, including grandparents, parents and children. They may also include brothers or sisters and their families, uncles, aunts and cousins. Even when relatives do not live together, they still consider themselves members of the same extended family includes grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins.

1. The nuclear family ranks as the most common family type .

A. an many industrialized countries B. in countries with nuclear weapons

4. The second paragraph is about .

A. American culture B. relatives and family members

C. the relationship between family members D. the extended family

5. The word “blended” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .

A. complex B. married C. mixed D. formed

III. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.

The American family unit is in the process of change. In the first half of the 20th century, there were mainly two types of families: the extended and the nuclear. An extended family includes mother, father, children and some other relatives, living in the same house. A nuclear family is composed of just parents and children livingunder the same roof.

As the American economy had progressed from agricultural to industrial one, people were forced to move to different parts of the country to get good jobs. These jobs were mainly in the large cities. Now, in fact, three-quarters of Americans live in urban areas which occupy 2.5% of the national total land mass. Of the 118 million in the labour force, only 3 million still work on the farm.

Since moving for better jobs has often divided the extended family, the nuclear family became more popular. At present, 55% of the families in the US are nuclear families. But besides the two types of traditional family groupings, the family is now being expanded to include a variety of other living arrangements because of divorce. There is an increase in single-parent families, in which a father or mother lives with one or more children. Divorce has also led to blended families, which occur when previously married men and women marry again and combine the children from former marriage into a new family. There are also some couples who do not want to have children to form two-person childless families.

1. A nuclear family is one that .

A. consists of father, mother, and children living in the same house

B. relatives live with

C. there are only grandparents, parents and their children living in

D. is bigger than extended family

2. The expression “under the same roof” means

A. a house with one roof B. a house with the roof the same as the wall

C. in the same building D. under the house

3. The nuclear family becomes more popular because of .

A. more divorces B. the division of the extended family

C. fewer jobs in big cities D. an increase in single-parent families

4. How many types of families have there been in the US since the first half of the 20th century?

A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five

5. A blended family is a newly-formed family .

A. with the combination of children of the two previously married father and mother

B. that has only father or mother living with children

C. in which there are no children

D. that there is only one couple living in with their newborn children

IV. Read the passage carefully, and do the tasks that follow.

The Role of the Japanese Mother

The focus of the mother is her home and family, with particular attention to the rearing of children. While most Japanese believe that a woman's place is in the home, women make up almost 40 percent of the labor force. More than half of these women are married. Many mothers with small children work only part-time so they can be home when their children are not in school. The extra income earned by the mother is often used to meet the cost of their children's education.

Japanese mothers take the responsibility of their child's education and upbringing very seriously. They seldom confront their preschool children because they want to foster an intimate, dependent relationship. The purpose of this approach is to get the child to obey willingly with the mother’s wishes and to shape the child's behavior over a long period of time. The close nature of the mother-child relationship and the strong parentalcommitment help to provide a strong foundation for the child's entry into elementary school.

Mothers are involved directly in with the child's school. Each day a notebook is sent back and forth between mother and teacher remarking on the child's mood, behavior, health, and activities both in school and at home. Mothers attend PTA meetings usually twice a month and are involved with school committee's working on special projects such as gardening and hot lunch preparation. School is a very stressful and competitive process so the Japanese mother concentrates all her efforts on getting her children through so they can get accepted into the appropriate universities.

Task 1: Match a word in column A with its definition in column B, writing the answer in each blank.

Task 2: Read the passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

6. Most Japanese women are housewives.  

Japanese mothers.

9. Japanese mothers and teachers work together for the children's study  

10. The Japanese mother concentrates all her efforts on getting her children  

through, so the atmosphere at home is very stressful.

D. SPEAKING

Rearrange the sentences in order to make a meaningful conversation, writing the letter (A-H) in each blank.

1. ___ A. Nam: It’s not only for our mother's benefits but it also makes us more independent when we have grown up.

2. ___ B. Nam: Besides cleaning and cooking, my mother also does a lot of other things around the house although she goes to work.

3. ___ C. Nam: I agree with that saying. All of us take it for granted that our mother is responsible for doing all the housework.

4. ___ D. Nam: Besides the relationship, we enjoy a friendlier atmosphere in our home all the time when we attend to each other.

5. ___ E. Mai: So does my mother. My father, my brother and I try to share the burden so that my mother can follow her own interests.

6. ___ F. Mai: I’ve just read a saying about household chores, Nam. It’s “Housework is what a woman does that nobody notices unless she hasn't done it.”

7. ___ G. Mai: It’s very useful for our future life. And I think we will have better relationship when we share household chores with one another.

8. ___ H. Mai: Yeah, when we come home from school, our house is clean and tidy and lunch or dinner is ready for us to eat.

SIBLINGS
When we are children, our sibling - that is, our brothers and sisters - are our first friends and first
enemies. At the end of life, they are often our oldest friends and oldest enemies. The effect of sibling relationships in childhood can last a lifetime. Many experts say that the relationship among brothers and sisters explains a great deal about family life, especially today when brothers and sisters often spend more time with one another than with their parents.

Studies have shown that sibling relationships between sister-sister pairs and brother-brother pairs are different. Sister pairs are the closest. Brothers are the most competitive. Sisters are usually more supportive of each other. They are more talkative, frank, and better at expressing themselves and sharing their feelings. On the other hand, brothers are usually more competitive with each other.
Experts agree that the relationship among siblings is influenced by many factors. For example, studies have shown that both brothers and sisters become more competitive and aggressive when their parents treat them even a little bit differently from one another. But parental treatment is not the only factor. Genetics, gender, life events, people, and experiences outside the family all shape the lives of siblings. Recently, one researcher demonstrated another factor: in sibling relationships. It was discovered that children dislike watching their siblings fight. In fact, they respond to arguments by taking sides - supporting one sibling and punishing the other.
