6 Fore Street, Kensington, London
March 6th, 2017
Dear Editor,
I am writing with regards to the article ‘Is the TV Dead?’ that appeared in your newspaper on March 4th. The author claimed that with the rise of the Internet, the TV was becoming less and less significant in our lives.
I find it very difficult to agree with this view. The TV is still the main way most of us get our entertainment at home. It offers us the chance to see top musical artists, great films and documentaries and occasionally, thanks to important televised events, it has the power to bring the whole nation and all ages together in a way the Internet never could.
Your article was particularly critical of the TV for the poor quality of programmes available on the many channels we now have. It is certainly true that many of the channels offer nothing more than repeats or low budget programmes. However, I would argue that the majority of content on the Internet is also of questionable quality. I agree with the writer that it is easy to keep up-to-date with the latest news on the Internet, but I'm sure most of us still enjoy sitting down to the News on TV in the evening just as much.
The writer is correct in stating that the Internet has become our major source for research and I think this is its main strength. However, criticising the TV for not being as good is totally unfair. Information programmes like documentaries are made for their potential as entertainment not as research tools and as such will continue to be popular with viewers.
So in conclusion, I don't think the writer should be so quick to write the TV off. On the contrary, I think it has many more years left in it!
Yours sincerely,
Samantha Johnson

Too many parents have a tough time get clear and accessible information about the public schools at their communities. That is why President Clinton had announced an initiative requiring all states to produce annual reports cards that are easily understood by and widely distributing to parents and the public, for each school, school district and the state as a whole. The report cards will include information to student achievement, teacher professionally qualifications, class size, school safety and other factors that will help parents judging the overall performance of the schools. President Clinton’s proposal will help ensure which parents in every state have access to the information they need to determine the quality of their schools and identity areas in which improvement is needed. |

We can tend to think of poverty as the main cause of violent crime. However, research from both sides of the Atlantic shows that fathers may be the most important factor in preventing to children from turning over to crime. In the United States, children from better-off family were compared with ones who from families with lower incomes. Children from both groups that lived with their fathers also committed the same number of crimes. In the United Kingdom, a study was carried out of comparing a group of boys who had never been accused of not any crimes such as assault and stealing vehicles. All the boys had difficulties at the school and came from large families that didn't earn a lot of money. The biggest difference between from the groups was that fifty-five percent of the "good boys" lived with their fathers, while only four per cent of the "bad boys" did it. Eighty per cent of the well – behaved boys said how they felt close to their fathers even if they didn't live in the same house. It seems that by having a father who takes an interest in his children encourages youngsters not to break the law. |

PART III. READING
I. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct option (marked A, B, C or D) to answer the questions.
The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science have made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made any foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps 80 percent of all human illness are related to diet and 40 percent of cancer is related to diet as well, especially cancer of colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contact certain illnesses because of the characteristics food they consume.
That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers showed that nitrates and nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meats) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.
The additives we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.
A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest. Sometimes, well – meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge.
1. How has science done a disservice to people?
A. Because of science, disease caused by contaminated food has been virtually eradicated.
B. It has caused a lack of information concerning the value of food.
C. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food.
D. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables.
2. The word "prone" is nearest in meaning to ______.
A. supine B. unlikely C. healthy D. predisposed
3. What are nitrates used for?
A. They preserve flavor in packaged foods. B. They preserve the color of meats.
C. They are the objects of research. D. They caused to animals to become fatter.
4. The word "these" refers to_______.
A. meats B. colors C. researchers D. nitrates and nitrites
5. All of the following statements are true EXCEPT_______.
A. drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons.
B. some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals.
C. researchers have known about the potential hazards of food additives for more than 60 years.
D. food may cause 40 percent of cancer in the world
