PART IV : READING 
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B ,C, or D to answer the questions
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.
The passage implied that to go to a private school, what did a student need ?
A. a high level of intelligence 	B. a strong educational background
C. a lot of money 	D. good grades
What does the word “desperately” in the passage mostly mean ?
A. obviously 	B. urgently 	C. completely 	D. partly
What did Horace Mann do from 1837 to 1848 ?
A. raised money for the educational development in Massachusetts
B. managed education in the state of Massachusetts
C. funded many projects to improve the educational system for Americans
D. worked as a headmaster in a school in the state of Massachusetts

A. Horace Mann suggested schools prepare children for their life’s work.
B. Horace Mann was a famous US educational reformer.
C. Horace Mann brought about changes in many schools in the United States.
D. Horace Mann began raising teachers’ salaries.
