Paage 1

The school is a complex social structure, existing in its own right yet surrounded by other groups which to some extent control and influence it.Individuals in a school are subject to a variety of preures both within the school and outside it.What are these influences, and where do they originate?

There are four major elements which produce and receive influences : the teacher, the child, the school itself and the outer community.These four elements will influence and be influenced by each other at many levels in a variety of ways.The teacher, for example, brings into the school all his own habits of mind, attitudes, beliefs, values, ways of doing things and seeing the world which he has inherited from the society in which he was brought up.These factors will influence the children, the school and the community outside.The child brings into the school everything which he has learned in his family--habits, attitudes, beliefs etc.--and the teacher and the school will respond to these.The school itself is a social organization with special requirements of behavior, influenced by the generally accepted values and traditions of education, built up over the years.Both the child and the teacher must adapt themselves to these.The school influences the wider community around it, both by producing the manpower with the skills needed by society, and by shaping the beliefs and attitudes of the young entering society.As for the community, it influences the actual organization of the school through such groups as governors, parent-teacher aociations, administrators etc., and in a le formal way, it is represented by those working in the school, the children, the teachers and servicing staff.With all these factors in mind, it is obvious that schools may differ greatly according to the nature of the community which they serve.Every area has its own geographical, economic and historical character which may be reflected in the school.For example, a school serving a community which is dominated by one major industry may need to organize itself according to the expectations of job opportunities which will be available to the children as they leave to find work.A school in a remote rural area may be slanted in a different direction.Similarly, the presence in the neighborhood of one particular social cla, race or religion may be reflected in the school.1.By saying “the school is a complex social structure, ” the author means that ____ [A] the school is existing in a complex society.[B] the school is organized in much the same way that the society is organized.[C] the school is always controlled by influential individuals.[D] the school is always influenced by the people within and outside it.2.According to the author, the teacher of a school must ____ [A] understand the nature of the outer community.[B] respect the children's habits, attitudes, beliefs, etc.[C] meet the behavioral requirements of the school.[D] acquire the skills needed by the society.3.The school may influence the community around it by ____ [A] helping children from their outlook and their values of life.[B] changing teachers' beliefs and attitudes.[C] organizing parent-teacher aociations.[D] hiring administrators and the servicing staff.4.The community influences the organization of school through ____ [A] administrators and governors.[B] teachers and children.[C] those working in the school.[D] all of the above

5.Which of the following may NOT be reflected in the school? ____ [A] The expectations of job opportunities in the nearby industry.[B] The social gatherings in the neighborhood.[C] The geographical character of the community.[D] The religious belief of the community members.6.It can be inferred from the context that the word slanted in the last sentence but one roughly means ____ [A] improved.[B] organized.[C] built.[D] slided.7.From the paage we may draw the conclusion that ____ [A] the four elements often influence the social structure.[B] the four elements are usually inseparable.[C] the four elements always affect each other.[D] the four elements may be dominated by the major

Paage 2

I'm afraid we have to accept the fact that criminals are getting younger all the time, but unfortunately the offences they commit are becoming proportionately more serious.I only wish we didn't have to admit this but, in doing so, we must first ask ourselves what's wrong with our society that our children apparently couldn't care le about law and order.The days of the sneak thief who stole a couple of apples off a barrel or nicked a packet of sweets from a chain store are virtually over.I had occasion to say this to a young offender the other day.'Sweets from a chain store? ' he said, 'you must be joking.That's kid's stuff.' I may add that he was aged eleven.In other words, today's young criminals would find it laughable to risk being caught for petty theft of this description.They've got enough money in their pockets to buy the sweets they want, anyway.I think we have come to the point where it's all too easy to put the blame on anyone but ourselves.Faced as they are with a society that frequently rejects them on the grounds of color, race or low academic ability, these children turn to crime as a means of boosting their self-esteem.Nurtured on films and TV glamorizing the role of the criminal, they are quick to identify with these anti-heroes.It is a matter of increasing concern to the Police and magistrates that the Children and Young Persons Act, 1969 is becoming inadequate to deal with the rise in juvenile delinquency.Because the emphasis has been placed on the cause and treatment of their delinquency, rather than an old-fashioned methods of punishment, the children themselves are well aware that there is very little that can be done to prevent them continuing to mug, vandalize and in some case even cause the death of those they choose to terrorize.I don't like the look of this situation any more than you do.In our own interests and in those of our children and grandchildren, we cannot continue to take the 'it's nothing to do with me' attitude we have adopted for so long.We must unite in a common demand for harsher and more disciplined methods against these young offenders.8.According to the author, crimes committed by teenagers can be ____.[A] very serious [B] very minor [C] the least serious [D] serious but harmle

9.The article says that children nowadays ____.[A] are unable to learn about law and order [B] have already known too much about law and order [C] hardly care about law and order [D] are greatly concerned about law and order

10.The question 'Sweets from a chain store? ' means whether ____.[A] he wanted some sweets from a chain store [B] he was caught while stealing sweets from a chain store [C] the days of stealing sweets from a chain store were over [D] stealing sweets from a chain store was illegal

12.According to the author, the reason why some youngsters tend to commit crimes is, psychologically speaking, that ____.[A] they are often rejected on the grounds of race, color or education [B] they don't know what they are doing is against the law [C] they think it the only way of showing their self-respect [D] both A and C
