Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around 1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the Norman invasion of 1030. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not attended even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two centuries, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became established and grew in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated, English gradually became the primary language of international business, banking, and diplomacy. Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems Worldwide is in English. Two-thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main language of technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers.

In Viet Nam, the Mid-Fall festival is also called the Children’s festival because it includes special activities for them. It is held every year on the 15th of the 8th lunar month when the moon is the brightest and roundest.

About one month before the festival, a lot of stalls are built along the streets selling moon cakes and displaying a variety of lanterns in different sizes and shapes. Lanterns are made of red cellophane-transparent papers and bamboo sticks or of plastic and thin steel wire. Most of them are traditionally lit up with candles though some have battery-operated lamps.

There are a lot of interesting activities in the Mid-Fall festival such as the children’s lantern procession and the Unicorn dance performance. Unicorn is an imaginary animal which looks like a lion. These activities are usually performed in the evening.

Children and their parents assemble in the garden, in the backyard, on the terrace of their house, or even on the pavement where they can have a good view of  the moon and enjoy the performances. They also celebrate the festival with moon cakes while watching the full moon rising. The festival ends up around midnight when the moon is at its highest position in the sky.

In the early years of television, educational specialists believed that it would be very useful in teaching and learning. Many schools have bought television sets, intending to use them effectively to improve the quality of education; but actually, they are rarely used properly in classrooms. Meanwhile, children spend the majority of their out-of-school hours watching TV and their typical school days proceed as if television did not exist.

There are some explanations for the failure of television to get the interest of the teachers. Firstly, the schools that purchased television sets have not set aside money for equipment repairs and maintenance, so these television sets are sooner and later out of order. Secondly these schools have not found an effective way to train teachers to integrate television into their ongoing instructional programs. Lastly, most teachers do not regard the quality of television and its usefulness in the classroom. Teachers at the schools work hard for at least twelve years to train their students to become good readers. However, according to recent statistics, teenagers seldom spend their free time reading books and newspapers but watching television instead.

Question 21. According to the text, TV ______.

A. has not attracted students’ interest       B. has been used effectively in classrooms

C. has not existed in classrooms                D. has not been used properly in classrooms

Question 22. The text is about ______.

A. the use of television at schools             B. watching TV outside school

C. educational specialists                            D. teaching and learning television
