II. 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. 
It is commonly believed that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said 
that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The difference between schooling and education 
implied by this remark is important. Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. 
Education knows no limits. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in the kitchen 
or on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in school and the whole universe of informal 
learning. The agent (doer) of education can vary from respected grandparents to the people arguing about politics 
on the radio, from a child to a famous scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite 
often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known 
of other religions. People receive education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term; it is a 
lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be a necessary part of 
one‟s entire life. Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little 
from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at about the same time, take the 
assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The pieces of 
reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of governments, 
have been limited by the subjects being taught. For example, high school students know that they are not likely to 
find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their society or what the newest filmmakers are 
experimenting with. There are clear and undoubted conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.

A. listing and discussing several educational problems 
B. telling the difference between the meaning of two related words 
C. giving examples of different schools

that ______. 
A. education is totally ruined by schooling 
B. all of life is an education 
C. schooling takes place everywhere 
D. schooling prevents people discovering things 
Question 28: The word “all-inclusive” in the passage mostly means ______. 
A. going in many directions B. involving many school subjects 
C. allowing no exceptions D. including everything or everyone 
Question 29: According to the passage, the doers of education are ______. 
A. mostly famous scientists B. almost all people 
C. only respected grandparents D. mainly politicians 
Question 30: What does the writer mean by saying “education quite often produces surprises”? 
A. Educators often produce surprises. 
B. It‟s surprising that we know little about other religions. 
C. Success of informal learning is predictable.

VIII. 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. 
Most people are afraid of sharks, but they usually do not know very much about them. For example, there 
are 350 kinds of sharks, and all of them are meat eaters. Some sharks are very big. The whale shark is 50 to 60 feet 
long. But some sharks are very small. The dwarf shark is only 6 inches long. Sharks are 100 million years old. In 
fact, they lived at the same time as dinosaurs. Today, sharks live in every ocean in the world, but most sharks live in 
warm water. They keep the oceans clean because they eat sick fish and animals. Most sharks have four to six rows 
of teeth. When a shark‟s tooth falls out another tooth moves in from behind. Sharks do not have ears. However, they 
„hear‟ sounds and movements in the water. Any sound or movement makes the water vibrate. Sharks can feel these 
vibrations, and they help the sharks find food, too. Most sharks see best in low light. They often hunt for food at 
dawn, in the evening or in the middle of the night. Scientists want to learn more about sharks for several reasons. 
For example, cancer is common in many animals, including people. However, it is rare in sharks. Scientists want to 
find out why sharks almost never get cancer. Maybe this information can help people prevent cancer too.
