Reаd the pаssаge and answer the questiоn that fоllоws. 1It is through their everyday experiences that children gain the oral language skills they need to become strong readers and learners in the future. 2From their parents and other adults in their lives, as well as their peers, children learn words, which they then use to further expand their vocabularies and to build concepts about words and the world. 3Lacking exposure to rich language experiences can cause children to rapidly lose ground in their word learning and the word gap between them and their peers can widen substantially by the age of 4. adapted from “Joining Oral Language and Early Literacy,” published by www.reading.org Which sentence is the topic sentence?
Use the excerpt belоw, entitled “The Weаk Cаse fоr Public Schоoling,” to аnswer the question that follows. Excerpt from “The Weak Case for Public Schooling,” by David Friedman One argument that government schooling is necessary is that, being themselves inadequately educated, parents are incompetent to choose schooling for their children. As John Stuart Mill put it, "The uncultivated cannot be competent judges of cultivation." This argument concedes that government schools will teach what the state wants children to learn instead of what their parents want them to learn, but views that as an advantage of the government system. This argument seems to justify at most one generation of government schooling. Once we educate the first generation, they should then be competent to choose an education for their children. The U.S. and Britain have now had universal government schooling for at least five or six generations. If it has done a good job of educating students it should now be unnecessary, and if it has done a bad job perhaps we should try something else. A further problem with the argument is that most of what the government schools actually teach-or, too often, fail to teach-is well within the comprehension of virtually all parents. Insofar as the main business of the schools is to teach children the basic skills needed to function in our society, the children's parents are usually competent to judge how good a job is being done. Even a parent who cannot read can still tell whether his child can. And, while a few educational issues may go beyond the parents' competence to judge, parents qua parents, like parents qua taxpayers, have the option of making use of other people's expert opinion. The crucial difference between the two roles is that a parent deciding what school his child shall go to has a far stronger incentive to form as accurate an opinion as possible than does a parent deciding how to vote. Parental preferences have often clashed with "expert educational opinion," but it has not always been the parents who turned out to be in the wrong. Thus in Scotland, around 1800, parents "Increasingly resisted traditional parochial school emphasis on classical languages and Religion. Parents complained that their children did not get their due in the school `By not having been teached [sic] writing.'”Modern examples might include the controversies associated with the shift away from phonics and towards the look-see approach to teaching literacy and the introduction of the "new math" somewhat later-both arguably among the causes of the massive decline in the output of the American school system from 1960 to 1980. Parents have to live with the results of educational experiments; the educators can always go on to a new generation of experimental subjects. –adapted from “The weak Case for Public Schooling,” by David Friedman [END] Question: Using the information provided in the passage, select the sentences below that are VALID inferences.
