Since the 1970s, one theory that has been popular among schoolteachers and pervasive in
education research literature 1s the ideas of ―learning styles‖. The ideas is that students will
learn more if they are exposed to material through approaches that specifically match their
learning style. But in recent years, many academicians have criticized Learning Style saying
there 1s no evidence it improves students understanding.

Now comes a newly published study of 114 academics in higher education in the United
Kingdom. Their findings are very interesting. It was found while 58% of the academics
surveyed believe Learning Styles to be beneficial—only 33% actually used the pedagogical
tool. Simply, there is something about the idea of individualized education that appeals, but
actually administering a Learning Styles questionnaire to students and then tailoring the class
curriculum to suit individual students‘ personal learning styles is only done by a handful of
faculty.

The main idea of paragraph 2 Is...

A. Not many practice students‘ learning styles in classroom

B. The new research findings contradicted the previous ones

C. The research findings were not as interesting as the application

Furrow irrigation is conducted by creating small parallel channels along the field length in the
direction of predominant slope. Water is applied to the top end of each furrow and flows
down the field under the influence of gravity. Water may be supplied using gated pipe,
siphon and head ditch or bankless systems. The speed of water movement is determined by
many factors such as slope, surface roughness and furrow shape but most importantly by the
inflow rate and soil infiltration rate. The spacing between adjacent furrows is governed by the
crop species, common spacings typically range from 0.75 to 2 meters. The crop is planted on
the ridge between furrows which may contain a single row of plants or several rows 1n the
case of a,bed type, system, Eurrows,may range anywhere from less than 100 m to 2000 m
long depending on the soil type , location and crop type

Blueberries really stand out. They contain both insoluble fiber which ―flushes‖ fat out of
your system and soluble fiber which slows down the emptying of your stomach, and
improves blood sugar control. In a study by the United States Department of Agriculture,
people who consumed 2.5 cups of wild blueberry juice per day for 12 weeks lowered their
blood glucose levels, lifted depression and improved their memories. Researchers credit these
results to anthocyanins in the berries, a natural chemical that shrinks fat cells and also
stimulates the release of adiponectin, a hormone that regulates blood glucose levels, among
other things. Increasing adiponectin levels can help keep blood sugar low and increase our
sensitivity to insulin.

The Piranha is a much...

The piranha is a much-maligned fish. Most people think that this is a deadly creature that
swarms through rivers and creeks of the Amazon rainforest looking for victims to tear apart.
And woe betide anyone unlucky enough to be in the same water as a shoal of piranhas. It
takes only a few minutes for the vicious piranhas to reduce someone to a mere skeleton.

The truth is that the piranha is really a much more nuanced animal than the mindless killer
depicted in the media. In fact, piranhas are a group made up of approximately twelve
different species. Each piranha species occupies its own ecological niche. One type of
piranha takes chunks out of the fins of other fish. Another type eats fruit falling from trees
into the river. Each piranha species plays a unique role in the ecology of the rainforest
floodplains. So what should you do next time you hear someone talking about the
―deadly piranha‘‘? You can remind them that the piranha 1s not always the notorious killer
fish that the tough, muscular heroes of popular nature television shows would have us
believe.

3) In paragraph 1, the author uses hyperbole—characterized by the use of exaggeration for

effect—to describe the piranha. The author most likely uses hyperbole to

A. frame an argument that is supported in a later paragraph

B. create ambiguity so the reader cannot be sure which position the writer supports

C. juxtapose the myth of the piranha with the truth about the fish

D. evoke vivid images of nature television shows in the reader‘s mind
