It isn't easy to stop truancy. Sometimes schools are so big that it is difficult to know who is playing truant. Advanced technology is helping a lot. Many schools are changing their systems for recording who is present and who is absent. In the past teachers always wrote it down, but now it's becoming more common to use computers. In a group of private schools in Tokyo, students put out their hands for examination every morning. A special computer looks at each student's fingers to check their fingerprints. Prison officers use the same technique with criminals in prison. It means that teachers know exactly who is in class and who isn't. Schools also employ technology to tell parents. A school in Scotland uses a system from the US called Phonemaster. It automatically telephones parents when a student is 30 minutes late for school. The phone doesn't stop ringing until someone answers it. In other countries, like Australia, the school automatically sends a text message to parents when their child is not at school. In some countries, truancy is the parents' responsibility. In the UK, parents pay a fine when their children are often absent from school for no good reason. In the US, Miami police arrested one parent, Mindy Pearl Viera, because her teenage daughters didn't go to school more than 100 times that year. The police in the Malaysian town of Seremban have a more 'educational' approach. When they find a student who is in the street and not at school, they take them to the police station where there is now a special 'reading room'. The students read books while they are waiting for their parents to come and take them home. Students who don't finish the book take it home and then write a summary of it. (Adapted from Gateway) Question 23. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 1? Many schools are changing their systems for recording who is present and who is absent. A. Numerous educational institutions have modified their methods for documenting student attendance status. B. Several learning establishments are in the process of revising how they keep track of which students are punctual and which are not.
