THE GENERATION GAP

It is sometimes said that your schooldays are the (0. happy) days of your life, and people often feel that this should be a period of (36. ENJOY) enjoyment. However, exams often affect students’ happiness, and many students express a (37. PREFER) preference for alternative methods of assessment, where the work they do throughout the year counts towards their final mark. They say that exams test short-term memory and (38. KNOW) knowledge which is forgotten immediately after the exam. Also, assessing coursework as part of the final marks changes students' (39. BEHAVE) behaviour; making them more (40. RESPONSIBILITY)responsible about studying. There are some students, however, who prefer final examinations, saying that in (41. COMPARE) comparement they only have to work hard for two months a year and so they have more time for their leisure (42. ACT)activity. They say that some students receive (43. ASSIST) with their coursework from their parents, so it is not an accurate (44. MEASURE)measuring of how hard they have worked or of their real (45. ABLE)ability in the subject they are studying.
Education is a very important part of a child’s life, and yet an increasing number of children don’t want to attend school. It is not that they find the work too difficult or are afraid of the teachers. It is because they are being bullied.
School bullies can make other children’s lives a misery and their bullying takes different forms. Often they will use their physical size to threaten those who are smaller and weaker than themselves. They will frighten their victims with a beating if they don’t do as they say, often using physical force to take money, and other possessions from them.
Some psychologists say that the desire of the class bully to dominate the others is a result of an inferiority complex or some personal unhappiness. The bullying problem is so great that many schools have been forced to draw up an official strategy for dealing with it.
Because it is so difficult to get victims to report bullies, and often difficult to prove coercion, many bullies escape unpunished. We must protect our children from this issue. They have a right to enjoy their schooldays.

Giáo dục là một phần rất quan trọng trong cuộc sống của trẻ em, tuy nhiên ngày càng có nhiều trẻ em không muốn đến trường. Không phải họ thấy bài quá khó hay sợ thầy cô. Đó là bởi vì họ đang bị bắt nạt.
Những kẻ bắt nạt học đường có thể khiến cuộc sống của những đứa trẻ khác trở nên khốn khổ và sự bắt nạt của chúng diễn ra dưới nhiều hình thức khác nhau. Thường thì họ sẽ sử dụng ngoại hình to lớn của mình để đe dọa những người nhỏ hơn và yếu hơn mình. Chúng sẽ đánh nạn nhân nếu không làm như chúng nói, thường dùng vũ lực để lấy tiền và các tài sản khác của họ.
