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 35.
In the earliest times children got their education directly from parents and other adults. They learned mainly skills for survival. Adults passed down this knowledge through spoken language. Eventually cultures around the world began inventing writing. As societies developed they set up schools to teach reading, writing, maths, and other subjects.
The first schools were usually just for boys. Most of the students came down from rich and powerful families. Often the purpose of their education was religious training. In many cultures the religious leaders formed the highest level of society.
Some schools had other purposes as well. Many schools focused on military training. Sometimes youths attended special schools to learn the art of public speaking. These skills were meant to help them become future leaders.
Most girls received their education at home. They learned cooking, sewing and other useful skills.
Over time education became available to more people, not just the rich and powerful. The governments of some countries set up public systems of education in the 1800s. More schools opened to girls.
During the 1900s marks, or grades, became a new measure of learning. Testing became a regular part of formal education. As education became more important to people, teachers’ colleges opened. The requirements for becoming a teacher became stricter. Teaching became a highly respected profession.

Are Sports Bad for Kids?
People think children should play sports Sports are fun, and children stay healthy while playing with others. However, playing sports can have negative effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-esteem or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports, 40 million kids play sports in the US. Of these, 18 million say they have been yelled at or called names while playing sports. This leaves many children with a bad impression of sports. They think sports are just too aggressive.
Many researchers bclicve adults, especially parents, and coaches, are the main cause of too much aggression in children's sports. They believe children copy aggressive adult behavior. This behavior is then further reinforced through both positive and negative feedback. Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them. Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that winning is everything. At children's sporting events, parents may yell insults at other players or cheer when their child behaves aggressively. As well, children may be taught that hurting other players is acceptable, or they may be pushed to continue playing even when they are injured. In addition, the media makes violence seem exciting. Children watch adult sports games and see violent behavior replayed over and over on television.
As a society, we really need to face up to this problem and do something about it. Parents and coaches should act as better examples for children. They also need to teach children better values. They should teach children to enjoy themselves whether they win or not. It is not necessary to knock yourself out to enjoy sports. Winning is not everything. In addition, children should not be allowed to continue to play when they are injured. Sending a child with an injury into a game gives the child the message that health is not as important as winning. If we make some basic changes, children might learn to enjoy sports again.
36. How many children said they had some negative experience when playing sports?
A. Less than half of the children B. All of the children
C.About ten percent of the children D. More than half of the children
37. Which is described as the main cause of more aggressive playing?
A. New rules in sports B. Other players
C. Adults D. Children with low grades in school
38. What does the writer suggest?
A. Aggressive sports should not be shown on television.
B. Parents should teach children to play sports for fun and exercise.
C. Children should not play sports until high school.
D. Coaches should be required to study child psychology
39. What would probably NOT be done when "facing up to a problem"
A. Looking for a solution B. Ignoring the problem
C. Admitting there is a problem D.Finding the reason

A. Some sports can cause health problems. B. Children often become like their parents.
C. Playing sports may have negative results. D. Children need to play sports in school
