Exercise 2: (Unit 11/tuần 24/ mức 2)
Many people believe that watching television has resulted in lower reading standards in schools.
However, the link between television and printed books is not as simple as that. In many cases,
television actually encourages people to read ; for example, when a book is turned into a TV series,
its sales often go up.
One study of this link examined six-year-old children who were viewing a special series of 15-
minute programs at school. The series was designed to encourage love of books, as well as to
develop the basic mechanical skills of reading. Each program is an animated film of a children's
book. The story is read aloud and certain key phrases from the book appear on the screen, beneath
the picture. Whenever a word is read, it is also highlighted on the TV screen.
One finding was that watching these programs was very important to the children. If anything
prevented them from seeing a program, they were very disappointed. What's more, they wanted to
read the books which the different parts of the series were based on.
The programs also gave the children more confidence when looking at these books. As a result of
their familiarity with the stories, they would sit in pairs and read the stories aloud to each other. On
each occasion, the children showed great sympathy when discussing a character in a book because
they themselves had been moved when watching the character on television.
1. What is the main idea of the book?
A. The simple link between television and books.
B. The influence of television on reading books.
C. The advantage of books over television.
D. The ways of children reading books and watching TV.
Đáp án: B
2. When does television encourage people to read?

It's not an ordinary business book, nor is it just about my life. The message is that to succeed in
business you have to be different. Business can be fun, a business can be run with love and it can
do good. In business, as in life, I need to enjoy myself, to have a feeling of family and to feel
excited by the unexpected. I have always wanted the people who work for "The Body Shop" to
feel the same way.
Now this book sends these ideas of mine out into the world. I'd like to think there are no limits to
our "family", no limits to what can be done. I find that an exciting thought. I hope you do, too.
