Some of these policies even directly encourage their citizens to procreate, while others are aimed at providing for families who can’t afford to have kids on their own. (25) officials made many of these policies with their hearts in the right place, they only contribute to the problem of overpopulation. Parents might not have kids for the tax benefit alone (although some undoubtedly do), but they aren’t discouraged by government (26) either. Sometimes, these policies mean that parents with more kids create more income than those without kids. Changing these policies won’t come easy, as many families (27) on them for a sustainable income. Still, we need to look at tax benefits and other government policies regarding one of the overpopulation solutions. One method of changing policy might be to reward families who decide to have two or (28) children with tax breaks. This won’t harm anyone who has a larger family but might dissuade some parents from having an excessive amount of kids.

This is particularly the case for whites interacting with racial or ethnic minorities and nonwhites interacting with minority groups other than their own. About a quarter of white adults say they interact with blacks and Hispanics a lot in their day-to-day life. Among blacks, 26% say they have a lot of interaction with people who are Hispanic, while one-in-five Hispanics say they have frequent interaction with people who are black. About one in-ten whites, blacks and Hispanics say they interact with Asians a lot in their daily life. A majority of Asians say they have frequent daily interaction with whites, more than the share of blacks and Hispanics who say the same. About one-in-four Asians say they have a lot of interaction with people who are Hispanic and 15% say the same about people who are black. Asians are less likely than whites, blacks and Hispanics to say they have a lot of interaction with people in their own group. The extent to which Americans interact with various racial or ethnic groups reflects, at least in part, the shares of each group in the population.

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 question from 36 to 42: In many experience, freshmen today are different from those I knew when I started as a counselor and professor 2 years ago. College has always been demanding both academically and socially. But students now are less mature and often not ready for the reponsibility of being in college. It is really too easy to point the finger at parents who protect their children from life’s obstacle. Parents, who handle every difficulty and every other responsibility for their children writing admission essays to picking college courses, certainly may contribute to their children’s lack of coping strategies. But we can look even more broadly to the social trends of today. How many people do you know who are on medication to prevent anxiety or depression? The number of students who arrive at college already medicated for unwanted emotions has increased dramatically in the past 10 years. We, as a society, don’t want to ―feel‖ anything unpleasant and we certainly don’t want our children to ―suffer‖. The resulting problem is that by not experiencing negative emotions, one does not learn the necessary skills to tolerate and negotiate adversity. As a psychologist, I am well aware of the fact that some individuals suffer from depression and anxiety and can benefit from treatment, but I question the growing number of medicated adolescents today. Our world is more stressful in general because of the current economic and political realities, but I don’t believe that the college experience itself is more intense today than that of the past 10 years. What I do think is that many students are often not prepared to be young ―adults‖ with all the responsibilities of life. What does this mean for college faculty and staff? We are required to assist in the basic parenting of these students – the student who complains that the professor didn’t remind her of the due date for an assignment that was clearly listed on the syllabus and the student who cheats on an assignment in spite of careful instructions about plagiarism. As college professors, we have to explain what it means to be an independent college student before we can even begin to teach. As parents and teachers we should expect young people to meet challenges. To encourage them in this direction, we have to step back and let them fail and pick themselves up and move forward. This approach needs to begin at an early age so that college can actually be a passage to independent adulthood. Question 34. According to the writer, students today are different from those she knew in that they are . A. not so academic B. too ready for college C. responsible for their work D. not as mature Question 35. The word ―handle‖ in paragraph 2 is opposite in meaning to.............. A. ignore B. deal with C. gain benefits from D. lend a hand to Question 36.

A. the absence of parents’ protection B. the over – parenting from parents C. the lack of parental support D. the lack of financial support Question 37. The phrase ―on medication‖ in paragraph 3 is similar in meaning to . A. studying medicine at college B. receiving medical treatment C. suffering anxiety or depression D. doing medical research Question 38. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. Our world is more stressful because of the current economic and political situation. B. Our society certainly doesn’t want our children to experience unpleasant things. C. The college experience itself is more intense today than that of the past 10 years. D. College faculty and staff are required to help in the parenting of problematic students. Question 39.

A. to be assigned more housework from adults B. to be encouraged to meet challenges C. daily coaching from their teachers D. to be given more social responsibilities Question 40.
