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).
At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the American educational system was desperately in need of reform. Private
schools existed, but only for the very rich. There were very few public schools because of the strong sentiment that
children who would grow up to be laborers should not "waste" their time on education but should instead prepare
themselves for their life's work. It was in the face of this public sentiment that educational reformers set about their task.
Horace Mann, probably the most famous of the reformers, felt that there was no excuse in a republic for any citizen to
be uneducated. As Superintendent of Education in the state of Massachusetts from 1837 to 1848, he initiated various
changes, which were soon matched in other school districts around the country. He extended the school year from five
to six months and improved the quality of teachers by instituting teacher education and raising teacher salaries.
Although these changes did not bring about a sudden improvement in the educational system, they at least increased
public awareness as to the need for a further strengthening of the system.

each of the questions (from 31 to 35 ).
French educational districts, called académies, are under the direction of a rector, an appointee of the national
government who is also in charge of universities in each district. The uniformity in curriculum throughout the country
leaves each university with little to distinguish itself. Hence, many students prefer to go to Paris, where there are better
accommodations and more cultural amenities for them. Another difference is the existence in France of prestigious

higher educational institutions known as grandes écoles, which provide advanced professional and technical training.
Most of these schools are not affiliated with the universities, although they too recruit their students by giving
competitive examinations to candidates. The grandes écoles provide rigorous training in all branches of applied science
and technology, and their diplomas have a somewhat higher standing than the ordinary licence.
In Germany, the regional universities have autonomy in determining their curriculum under the direction of rectors
elected from within. Students in Germany change universities according to their interests and the strengths of each
university. In fact, it is a custom for students to attend two, three, or even four different universities in the course of their
undergraduate studies, and the majority of professors at a particular university may have taught in four or five others.
This high degree of mobility means that schemes of study and examination are marked by a freedom and individuality
unknown in France.

care (26)_______ themselves, a home and a family. They learn skills they can use in their adult lives, like preparing meals,

FUTURE JOBS
The Trump campaign ran on bringing jobs back to American shores, although mechanization has been the biggest
reason for manufacturing jobs' disappearance. Similar losses have led to populist movements in several other countries.
But instead of a pro-job growth future, economists across the board predict further losses as Al, robotics, and other
technologies continue to be ushered in. What is up for debate is how quickly this is likely to occur.
Now, an expert at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania is ringing the alarm bells.
According to Art Bilger, venture capitalist and board member at the business school, all the developed nations on earth
will see job loss rates of up to 47% within the next 25 years, according to a recent Oxford study. "No government is
prepared," The Economist reports. These include blue and white collar jobs. So far, the loss has been restricted to the
blue collar variety, particularly in manufacturing.
To combat "structural unemployment" and the terrible blow, it is bound to deal the American people, Bilger has
formed a nonprofit called Working Nation, whose mission it is to warn the public and to help make plans to safeguard
them from this worrisome trend. Not only is the entire concept of employment about to change in a dramatic fashion,
the trend is irreversible. The venture capitalist called on corporations, academia, government, and nonprofits to
cooperate in modernizing our workforce.
