Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.<br /> The American education system requires that students complete 12 years of primary and secondary<br /> education prior to attending university or college. This may be accomplished either at public or governmentoperated schools, or at private schools. These 12 years of schooling or their equivalent may also be<br /> completed outside the USA, thus giving foreign students the opportunity to pursue the benefits of the<br /> American education system and obtain a quality American education. Perhaps one of the most impressive<br /> facts is that a large number of presidents, prime ministers and leaders from other countries have experienced<br /> the American education system and graduated from a university or school in the USA. In many fields and<br /> industries, the American education system offers the most cutting-edge, sought-after programs at the world's<br /> best schools. That is why graduating from an accredited American school and being exposed to the rigors of<br /> the American education system is an investment in your future.<br /> Whether you want to study at a top USA university, a top USA college, a vocational or high school, a<br /> thorough understanding of how the American education system works is essential. Without a clear grasp<br /> of the American education system, an international student will find it difficult to make the right<br /> academic choices. It is no surprise that the American education system and the American school system<br /> host more international students than any other country in the world!<br /> Question 26: According to the text, students in the USA ........<br /> A. are made to take primary and secondary education in the country<br /> B. spend less than 12 years for primary and secondary education<br /> C. needn't take primary and secondary education<br /> D. are not necessarily take primary and secondary education in the country<br /> Question 27: The writer ....... the US education.<br /> A. underestimates<br /> B. overstates<br /> C. appreciates<br /> D. dislikes<br /> Question 28: The expression government-operated could best be replaced by ........<br /> A. boarding<br /> B. vocational<br /> C. independent<br /> D. state<br /> Question 29: What is the writer's advice?<br /> Trang 2/3 - Mã đề thi 485<br /> <br /> A. International students should not study at a top USA university, a top USA college, a vocational or<br /> high school.<br /> B. International students should not invest their future education in the US.<br /> C. International students should have a thorough understanding of how the American education system<br /> works before going there to study.<br /> D. Without a clear grasp of the American education system, an international student can make the right<br /> academic choices.<br /> Question 30: Which sentence is true?<br /> A.
