Women Workers

assembling electronics devices, packaging drugs, packaging cigarettes, etc. Most of
workers in a shoe industry, chemical industry, textile industry are women workers.

In many hilly areas of Scotland there once were large forests. Over the years the
forests became smaller. People cut down the trees to use the wood for heating or
building. They used the land for farming. After a while the land was not good for
farming. It became rocky because the earth was washed away by the rain. There were no
trees to hold the earth in place. Now the Scottish government is planting new trees. These
new forests look nice and green. They will also help improve the earth for the future.

heating. They are a home for many kinds of plants and animals. And for many city

Home Schooling

All children in the United States have to receive an education, but the law does
not say the have to be educated at school. A number of parents prefer not to send their
children to school. Children who are educated at home are known as “home-
schoolers.” There are about 300,000 home-schoolers in the United States today. Some
parents prefer teaching their children at home because they do not believe that public
schools teach the correct religious values; others believe they can provide a better
educational experience for their children by teaching them at home. Interestingly,
results show that home-schooled children quite often do better than average on
national tests in reading and math.
David Guterson and his wife teach their three children at home. Guterson says
that his children learn very differently from children in school. Learning starts with
the children’s interests and questions. For example, when there is heavy snowfall one
a winter day, it may start a discussion or reading about climate, snow removal
equipment, Alaska, Polar bears, and winter tourism. Or a spring evening when the
family is out watching the stars is a good time to ask questions about satelites and the
space program. If the brazilian rain forest are on the tv news, it could be a perfect
time to talk about how rain forests in influence the climate, how deserts are formed,
and how the polar ice caps affect ocean levels.
 Home schooling is often more interesting then regular school, but critics say that
home schoolers are outsiders who might be uncomfertable mixing with other people
in adult life. Critics also say that most parents are not well qualified to teach their
children. However, most parents don’t have the time or the desire to teach their
children at home, so school wll continue to be where most children get their formal
education.

a. They are from poor families
b. They don’t believe in religion
c. They are well-educated
d. They can teach their children at home

53. What is meant by home-schoolers?

a. Children who are educated at home
b. Children who learn mathematics
c. Children who stay at public schools
d. Children who study at school
e. Children who play at home

54. What is one of the two criticisms of home schooling?

a. Home-schooler play outside
b. Most children get formal education
c. Most parents are not qualified
d. Home schooling is not a regular school
e. Home schooling provide better education

a. Talking about the snowfall on a winter day
b. From the children’s interests and questions
