P = Presenter 

G = Guest 

In this part of the programme, I’m going to talk to David Brown, who’s written a book about English public schools. David, welcome. Why did you choose this topic?

G Well, I didn’t actually go to a public school myself – I went to an ordinary state school – but I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of them, and by their traditions. And I’m sure I’m not the only one. In fact, since I wrote my book, I’ve met lots of other people who share my interest.

Really? Now, in your book, you describe quite a few of these traditions. For example, the Eton Wall Game is a very old tradition. It dates back to ... when exactly?

1766. Yes, it’s a game that is played only at Eton College. It’s a bit like football, but the pitch is very narrow and it’s next to a wall. Each team has to get the ball to the end of the wall. If they do that, they score a goal. But it’s so difficult to score that the last goal was in 1909, more than a hundred years ago!

P Are there any other unusual games played at public schools?

Well, of course the sport of rugby gets its name from the public school where it was first played: Rugby College. The story is that during a game of ordinary football in 1823, a boy named William Webb Ellis picked up the ball and ran with it – so he invented the sport of ‘rugby football’. That sport is now played all over the world. But the Eton Wall Game isn’t! In fact I think it is still only played at Eton.

Well, with one goal every hundred years, I’m not surprised.

And then there’s the Greaze.

P The Greaze?

Yes, the Greaze – G-R-E-A-Z-E. It’s a game that’s played once a year, on pancake day, at Westminster School. The school cook makes a special pancake with horse hair in it, to make it stronger.

P That sounds disgusting. Horse hair?

G Yes, but they don’t eat it. The cook throws the pancake in the air and the students fight over it for one minute. The student that gets the largest piece of the pancake is the winner and receives a prize – a gold coin. Then the whole school has a half-day holiday.

Amazing.

Yes. And in the past, there was another part of the tradition. If the cook didn’t throw the pancake high enough, all the students threw their Latin books at him. But that doesn’t happen now.

P That’s good. Poor cook! Well, it sounds like a fascinating book. David Brown, thank you very much.

P = Diễn giải

G = Khách mời

P Trong phần này của chương trình, tôi sẽ nói chuyện với David Brown, người đã viết một cuốn sách về các trường công lập ở Anh. Chào mừng David. Tại sao bạn chọn chủ đề này?

G Chà, bản thân tôi không thực sự học trường tư – tôi học ở một trường công lập bình thường – nhưng tôi luôn bị cuốn hút bởi ý tưởng về chúng và bởi truyền thống của chúng. Và tôi chắc chắn rằng tôi không phải là người duy nhất. Trên thực tế, kể từ khi tôi viết cuốn sách của mình, tôi đã gặp rất nhiều người khác có cùng sở thích với tôi.

P Thật sao? Hiện tại thì trong cuốn sách của bạn, bạn mô tả khá nhiều những truyền thống này. Ví dụ, Trò chơi Bức tường Eton là một truyền thống rất lâu đời. Nó có từ... chính xác là khi nào?

G 1766. Đúng vậy, đó là một trò chơi chỉ được chơi ở Đại học Eton. Nó hơi giống bóng đá, nhưng mặt sân rất hẹp và nằm sát tường. Mỗi đội phải đưa bóng đến cuối bức tường. Nếu họ làm được điều đó, họ sẽ ghi bàn. Nhưng thật khó để ghi bàn khi bàn thắng cuối cùng là vào năm 1909, hơn một trăm năm trước!

P Có trò chơi khác thường nào khác được chơi ở các trường tư không?

G Chà, tất nhiên môn thể thao bóng bầu dục lấy tên từ trường tư thục nơi nó được chơi lần đầu tiên: Rugby College. Chuyện kể rằng trong một trận bóng đá thông thường vào năm 1823, một cậu bé tên là William Webb Ellis đã nhặt quả bóng và chạy đi với nó – vì vậy cậu đã phát minh ra môn thể thao “bóng bầu dục”. Môn thể thao đó bây giờ được chơi trên toàn thế giới. Nhưng Trò chơi Bức tường Eton thì không! Trên thực tế, tôi nghĩ nó vẫn chỉ được chơi ở Eton thôi

P Chà, chỉ với 1 bàn thăng sau một trăm năm, thì tôi cũng không ngạc nhiên lắm.

G Và sau đó là Greaze.

P Greeze?

G Vâng, Greaze – G-R-E-A-Z-E. Đó là một trò chơi được chơi mỗi năm một lần, vào ngày bánh kếp, tại Trường Westminster. Đầu bếp của trường làm một chiếc bánh kếp đặc biệt với lông ngựa để khiến nó đậm đà hơn.

P Nghe có vẻ hơi ghê ghê. Lông ngựa sao?

G Đúng vậy, nhưng họ không ăn nó đâu. Người đầu bếp tung chiếc bánh kếp lên không trung và các học sinh tranh giành nó trong một phút. Học sinh nào giành được miếng bánh kếp lớn nhất sẽ là người chiến thắng và nhận được phần thưởng - một đồng tiền vàng. Sau đó toàn trường được nghỉ nửa ngày.

P Thích vậy.

G Đúng thế. Và trong quá khứ, có một phần khác của truyền thống. Nếu người đầu bếp không ném chiếc bánh đủ cao, tất cả học sinh sẽ ném sách tiếng Latinh về phía anh ta. Nhưng bây giờ người ta không làm vậy nữa.

P Thế là tốt. Tội người người đầu bếp! Vâng, và có vẻ như đó là một cuốn sách hấp dẫn đấy. Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều, David Brown.

Peter’s behaviour was causing conflict in the house and Mr. and Mrs. Nelson were both concerned. They had different views of how they should deal with Peter’s behaviour and this led to rows that upset the whole family. They decided to prevent Peter from going out with his friends, but this just made him more stubborn and he would continue to miss school and stay outside his curfew.

He admitted that he had felt lonely since his best friend moved away and another group of friends had persuaded him to skip school. As he missed more and more school, it became harder to go back. Peter was encouraged to tell his parents how much he missed his friend and that he wanted to spend time with his dad playing football or fishing. Mr. Nelson thought he had grown out of that a long time ago but was pleased to spend time with Peter again. Mr. and Mrs. Nelson tried to notice every day when Peter achieved his goal of attending school, being on time and remembering to do his homework. It took a little longer for Peter’s friendships to return to normal and Peter has had to leam to prove himself trustworthy to his parents, but gradually Mr. and Mrs. Nelson are learning to trust Peter again.

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 from 31 to 38.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to do without being taught – to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle – compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we

never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one’s life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the world?” Don’t worry!

Dịch bài đọc:

Hãy để trẻ em học cách đánh giá công việc của mình. Một đứa trẻ tập nói không học bằng cách suốt ngày được sửa sai. Nếu sửa chữa quá nhiều, cậu bé sẽ ngừng nói chuyện. Cậu bé chú ý hàng nghìn lần mỗi ngày sự khác biệt giữa ngôn ngữ mình sử dụng và ngôn ngữ mà những người xung quanh mình sử dụng. Từng chút một, cậu bé tạo ra những thay đổi cần thiết để làm cho ngôn ngữ của mình giống như những người khác. Cũng như vậy, trẻ em học tất cả những thứ khác mà chúng học được mà không được dạy - nói, chạy, leo trèo, huýt sáo, đạp xe - so sánh sự thể hiện của chúng với những người giỏi hơn và dần dần tạo ra những thay đổi cần thiết. Nhưng ở trường chúng ta không bao giờ cho trẻ một cơ hội để tìm ra những sai lầm của mình cho chính mình, hãy để trẻ tự mình sửa chúng. Chúng ta làm tất cả cho cậu bé. Chúng ta hành động như thể chúng ta nghĩ rằng cậu bé sẽ không bao giờ nhận ra sai lầm trừ khi nó được chỉ ra cho cậu, hoặc sửa sai trừ khi cậu bé bị bắt phải làm. Chẳng bao lâu nữa cậu bé sẽ trở nên lệ thuộc vào giáo viên. Hãy để cho trẻ tự làm. Hãy để cậu bé tự tìm ra, với sự giúp đỡ của những đứa trẻ khác nếu cậu muốn, từ đó có nghĩa là gì, câu trả lời cho vấn đề đó là gì, cho dù đó có phải là một cách hay để nói hay làm điều này hay không.

Nếu nó là một vấn đề phải đưa ra câu trả lời đúng, như một câu hỏi trong toán học hoặc khoa học, hãy đưa cho cậu bé cuốn sách có lời giải. Hãy để cậu bé tự sửa lại bài tập của mình. Tại sao giáo viên lại nên lãng phí thời gian cho công việc thường ngày như vậy? Công việc của chúng ta là giúp đỡ đứa trẻ khi cậu bé nói với chúng ta rằng cậu không thể tìm ra cách để có được câu trả lời đúng. Hãy kết thúc tất cả những điều vô nghĩa về điểm số và những kỳ thi. Chúng ta hãy vứt bỏ tất cả những điều đó, và để cho trẻ em học hỏi những gì mà tất cả những người có học thức phải học một ngày nào đó, cách đo lường sự hiểu biết của chính mình, làm thế nào để biết những gì họ biết hoặc không biết.

Hãy để chúng tiếp tục công việc này theo cách có vẻ hợp lý nhất với họ, với sự giúp đỡ của chúng ta với tư cách là giáo viên ở trường học nếu chúng yêu cầu. Ý tưởng rằng có một cơ thể kiến thức để được học ở trường và sử dụng cho phần còn lại của cuộc đời một là vô nghĩa trong một thế giới phức tạp và thay đổi nhanh chóng như của chúng ta. Các bậc cha mẹ và giáo viên lo lắng nói, “Nhưng giả sử chúng không học được điều gì đó thiết yếu, những điều mà chúng cần để thành công trong thế giới này?” Đừng lo lắng! Nếu nó quan trọng, chúng sẽ đi ra ngoài thế giới và học nó.

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 from 31 to 38.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to do without being taught – to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle – compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we

never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one’s life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the world?” Don’t worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.
