Education meant simply learning to live. As civilization became more complex,however, education became more formal, structured, and comprehensive. Initialefforts of the ancient Chinese and Greek societies concentrated solely on theeducation of males. The post-Babylonian Jews and Plato were exceptions to thispattern. Plato was apparently the first significant advocate of the equality of thesexes. Women, in his ideal state, would have the same rights and duties and thesame educational opportunities as men. This aspect of Platonic philosophy, however,Doc24.vnhad little or no effect on education for many centuries, and the concept of liberaleducation for men only, which had been espoused by Aristotle, prevailed.In ancient Rome, the availability of an education was gradually extended towomen, but they were taught separately from men. The early Christians andmedieval Europeans continued this trend, and single-sex schools for the privilegedthrough classes prevailed through the Reformation period. Gradually, however,education for women, in separate but equal basis to that provided for men, wasbecoming clear responsibility of society. Martin Luther appealed for civil support ofschools for all children. Al the Council of Trent in the 16 th century, the RomanCatholic Church encouraged the establishment of free primary schools for childrenof all classes. The concept of universal primary education, regardless of sex, hadbeen born, but it was still in the realm of the single-sex school.In the late 19 th and early 20 th centuries, co-education became more widelyapplied principle of educational philosophy. In Britain, Germany, and the SovietUnion the education of boys and girls in the same classes became an acceptedpractice. Since World War II, Japan and the Scandinavian countries have alsoadopted relatively universal co-educational systems. The greatest negative reactionto co-education has been felt in the teaching systems of the Latin countries, wherethe sexes have usually been separated at both primary and secondary levels,according to local conditions.A number of studies have indicated that girls seem to perform better overall andin science in particular. In single-sex classes, during the adolescent years, pressureto conform to stereotypical female gender roles may disadvantage girls intraditionally male subjects, making them reluctant to volunteer for experimentalwork while taking part in lessons. In Britain, academic league tables point to highstandards achieved in girls’ schools. Some educationalists, therefore, suggestsegregation of the sexes as good thing, particularly in certain areas, and anumber of schools are experimenting with the idea.Câu 9: Ancient education generally focused its efforts on __________.A. both sexes B. on male learners C. female learners D. young people onlyCâu 10: Education in early times was mostly aimed at __________.A. learning to live B. imparting survival skillsC. teaching skills D. learning new lifestylesCâu 11: The first to support the equality of the sexes was __________.A.

This is useful because reading their emotional expressionshelps you to know how to respond to them. Emotions have evolved to help usrespond to important situations and to convey our intentions to others. But doesraising the eyebrows and rounding the mouth say the same thing in Minneapolis as itdoes in Madagascar? Much research on emotional expression has centered on suchquestions.According to Paul Ekman, the leading researcher in this area, people speak andunderstand substantially the same “facial language”. Studies by Ekman’s group havedemonstrated that humans share set of universal emotional expressions that testifyto the common biological heritage of the human species. Smiles, for example, signalhappiness and frowns indicate sadness on the faces of people in far-flung places asArgentina, Japan, Spain, Hungary, Poland, Sumatra, the United States, Vietnam, thejungles of New Guinea and the Eskimo villagers north of the Artic Circle. Ekman andhis colleagues claim that people everywhere can recognize at least seven basicemotions: sadness, fear, anger, disgust, contempt, happiness, and surprise. Thereare, however, huge differences across cultures in both the context and intensity ofemotional displays the so-called display rules. In many Asian cultures, for example,children are taught to control emotional responses especially negative one whilemany American children are encouraged to express their feelings more openly.Regardless of culture, however, emotions usually show themselves, to some degree,in people’s behaviour. From their first days of life, babies produce facial expressionsthat communicate their feelings.The ability to read facial expressions develops early, too. Very young children payclose attention to facial expressions, and by age five they nearly equal adults in theirskill at reading emotions on people’s faces. This evidence all points to biologicalunderpinning for our abilities to express and interpret basic set of humanemotions. Moreover, as Charles Darwin pointed out over century ago, someemotional expressions seem to appear across species boundaries. Cross-culturalpsychologists tell us that certain emotional responses carry different meanings indifferent cultures. For examples, what emotion, you suppose, might indicate disgust,while in China it can signify surprise. Likewise, grin on an American face mayindicate joy, while on Japanese face it may, just as easily, mean embarrassment.Clearly, culture influences emotional expressions.Câu 39: Smiles and frowns __________.A. have different meanings in different culturesB. do not convey the same emotions in various culturesC. are not popular everywhereD. are universal expressions across culturesCâu 40: The biggest difference lies in __________.Doc24.vnA. how long negative emotions are displayed B. how emotional responses are controlledC. how intensive emotions are expressed D. how often positive emotions are shownCâu 41: Paul Ekman is mentioned in the passage as an example of __________.A. lacks of many main ingredientsB. investigators on universal emotional expressionsC. researchers who can speak and understand many languagesD. researchers on universal languageCâu 42: The best title of this passage is __________.A.
