Increasing numbers of parents in the U.S. are choosing to teach their children at home. In
fact, the U.S. Department of Education has estimated that in 1999, about 850,000 children were
being homeschooled. Some educational experts say that the real number is double this estimate, and
the ranks of homeschooled children seem to be growing at the average rate of about eleven percent
every year. At one time, there was a theory accounting for homeschooling: it was traditionally used
for students who could not attend school because of behavioral or learning difficulties. Today,
however, more parents are taking on the responsibility of educating their own children at home due
Trang 5/9 – Mã đề thi 132
to their dissatisfaction with the educational system. Many parents are unhappy about class size, as
well as problems inside the classroom. Teacher shortages and lack of funding mean that, in many
schools, one teacher is responsible for thirty or forty students. The children are, therefore, deprived
of the attention they need. Escalating classroom violence has also motivated some parents to
remove their children from school.
Although there have been a lot of arguments for and against it, homeschooling in the U.S.
has become a multi-million dollar industry, and it is growing bigger and bigger. There are now
plenty of websites, support groups, and conventions that help parents protect their rights and enable
them to learn more about educating their children. Though once it was the only choice for troubled
children, homeschooling today is an accepted alternative to an educational system that many believe
D. Education system in the USA.

Choosing a career may be one of the hardest jobs you ever have, and it must be done with
care. View a career as an opportunity to do something you love, not simply as a way to earn a
living. Investing the time and effort to thoroughly explore your options can mean the difference
between finding a stimulating and rewarding career and move from job to unsatisfying job in an
attempt to find the right one. Work influences virtually every aspect of your life, from your choice
of friends to where you live. Here are just a few of the factors to consider.
Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision. You may want to begin
by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses. Think about the classes, hobbies, and
surroundings that you find most appealing. Ask yourself questions, such as “Would you like to
travel ? Do you want to work with children ? Are you more suited to solitary or cooperative work ?”
There are no right or wrong answers ; only you know what is important to you.
Determine which job features you require, which ones you would prefer, and which ones you
cannot accept. Then rank them in order of importance to you.
The setting of the job is one factor to take into account. You may not want to sit at a desk all day. If
not, there are diversity occupation – building inspector, supervisor, real estate agent – that involve a
great deal of time away from the office. Geographical location may be a concern, and employment
in some fields is concentrated in certain regions. Advertising job can generally be found only in
large cities. On the other hand, many industries such as hospitality, law education, and retail sales
are found in all regions of the country.If a high salary is important to you, do not judge a career by
Trang 7/9 – Mã đề thi 132
its starting wages. Many jobs, such as insurance sales, offers relatively low starting salaries;
however, pay substantially increases along with your experience, additional training, promotions
and commission.
Don’t rule out any occupation without learning more about it. Some industries evoke positive or
negative associations. The traveling life of a flight attendant appears glamorous, while that of a
plumber does not. Remember that many jobs are not what they appear to be at first, and may have
merits or demerits that are less obvious. Flight attendants must work long, grueling hours without
