I. Read the passage about Education in the future and do the tasks followed. (2.0 pts)

EDUCATION IN THE FUTURE

Education is another area of social life in which information technology is changing the

way we communicate. Today’s college students may not simply sit in a lecture or a library to learn

about their field. Through their computers and the wonders of virtual reality they can participate in

lifelike simulated experiences. Consider the following scenario of the future of education made

possible through developments in information technology.

For children over the age of 10, daily attendance at schools is not compulsory. Some of the

older children attend school only once or twice weekly to get tutorial support or instruction from a

teacher. For the most part, pupils are encouraged to work online from home. Students must

complete a minimum number of study hours per year; however, they may make up these hours by

studying at home at times that suit their family schedule. They can log on early or late in the day

and even join live classes in other countries. In order to ensure that each student is learning

adequately, computer software will automatically monitor the number of hours a week each student

studies on-line as well as that students’ learning materials and assessment activities. Reports will be

available for parents and teachers. The software can then identify the best learning activities and

conditions for each individual student and generate similar activities. It can also identify areas of

weak achievement and produce special programs adjusted to the student’s needs.

Task 1: Circle the best answer in the following sentences.

1. What is topic of the passage?

A. The effect of information technology on education.

B. Students don’t have to go to school any more.

C. Computer software will make sure students learn at home.

D. Students can know about their weak aspects to focus.

2. How many times are children who are older than 10 required to go to school weekly?

A. No time. B. Once or twice. C. Three. D. Four.

3. Who / what counts the number of hours per week that students spend learning?

A. Virtual reality. B. Teacher. C. Parents. D. Computer software.

4. What CAN’T the software do?

A. Monitor the time the students learn. B. Design materials for the students.

C. Find out the best activities for the children. D. Identify weaknesses of the students.

5. What is not mentioned as a benefit of information technology to the students?

A. Students can stay at home to learn.

B. Students can learn at times that suit their schedule.

C. Students’ learning time won’t be monitored.

D. Students’ weak achievement can be identified.

Task 2: Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the

information in the passage.

6._________ If students are under 10, they won’t have to go to school on a daily basis.

7._________Sometimes students go to school to pay their tuition fees.

8._________There are some requirements about the learning hours that students must complete

in a year.

9. _________There is no way to find out whether students are learning adequately.

10._________Students can be provided with learning programs that best suit them.
