Dịch bài đọc: Hình ảnh phổ biến về cuộc sống sinh viên là những con người trẻ tuổi, có ít trách nhiệm với bản thân và làm rất ít việc. Điều này thường không đúng. Nhiều người già bây giờ học đại học hoặc đại học, đôi khi trên cơ sở bán thời gian trong khi có một công việc và chăm sóc một gia đình.

Những sinh viên này thường có động lực cao và làm việc rất chăm chỉ. Những sinh viên trẻ hơn thường được cho là lười biếng và bất cẩn về tiền bạc nhưng tình trạng này đang thay đổi. Ở Anh, việc giảm sự hỗ trợ của chính phủ cho giáo dục đại học có nghĩa là sinh viên không còn có thể dựa vào việc chi trả cho họ. Trước đây, sinh viên nhận được một khoản trợ cấp cho chi phí sinh hoạt của họ. Bây giờ, hầu hết chỉ có thể nhận được một khoản vay và phải được trả lại. Kể từ năm 1999, họ đã trả hơn 1.000 bảng cho học phí và số tiền này sẽ tăng lên đến một con số tối đa là 3.000 bảng. Ở Mỹ, sinh viên phải trả tiền học phí và tiền phòng. Nhiều người nhận được gói hỗ trợ tài chính có thể bao gồm các khoản trợ cấp, học bổng và các khoản vay. Nỗi sợ có những khoản nợ lớn gây áp lực đáng kể cho sinh viên và nhiều người phải làm việc bán thời gian trong suốt nhiệm kỳ và làm việc toàn thời gian trong các kỳ nghỉ.

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 35 to 42.

GOAL: ENDING CHILD LABOR

Carefully guiding a needle that's longer than his tiny fingers, a young boy in Pakistan stitches together the leather pieces of a soccer ball. He sits crouched in the corner of a hot, airless shed for 12 hours. For his long day's work, he will earn 60 cents.

The boy is one of more than 200 million children who work at hard, sometimes dangerous jobs all over the world. Child labor exists in two-thirds of the world's nations. From Indonesia to Guatemala, poor children as young as six are sent off to work. Often they are mistreated and punished for not working hard enough. Children mix the gunpowder for firecrackers in China and knot the threads for carpets in India, all for pennies a day. Sometimes they are sold as slaves.

In a speech to the Child Labor Coalition when he was U.S. Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich expressed gratitude for the organization's work to end abuse of child labor, "You turned up the heat, and you got results." He also congratulated Craig Kielburger, then 13, of Canada, who traveled the world for a year fighting for kids' rights. Craig believes kids can make a difference. He offers this advice, "Write letters to companies and government officials. Put pressure on leaders to make changes and to stop the misuse of children."

One solution to the child-labor problem in poor countries is education. "The future of these countries," Secretary Reich declared, "depends on a work force that is educated. We are prepared to help build schools."

Education has helped to make the world a brighter place for one youth, Aghan of India. When he was nine, Aghan was kidnapped from his home and sold to a carpet maker. Aghan's boss was very cruel. "I was always crying for my mother," he recalls. Aghan's dream was to learn to write so that he could send letters to his parents. Fortunately, a group that opposes child labor rescued Aghan from the factory. He was sent to a shelter in New Delhi where he worked hard to learn to write.

When children are used to work for unfair wages in poor working conditions, it is best described as _________.

A. an abuse of working children.

B. hard work.

C. a poor working environment.

D. unfair labor practices.
