Rarely have I experienced a reaction like that which came about following the idea of banning private education. One of those who contacted me to disagree with the idea was 17 year old Anirudh Mandagere. He got 10 A*s at GCSE and is currently studying English, French, Math and History at a private school in Manchester. Here is his response:
For me, the idea that all private schools should be banned is not only ridiculous and unrealistic, but goes against the idea of liberty. We must have the freedom to choose between state-funded and privately educated schools. If parents pay taxes, surely they should be able to choose whether they send their children to a state-funded or a privately-funded school.
The economic impacts of abolishing private education are vast. Banning private schools would obviously contribute to a great transfer to state schools. Many state schools are already overburdened; do they really need more pupils? Abolishing private education would lead to higher taxes for taxpayers since more money would be needed to educate the 7% who were previously private educated. In the times of economic crisis, should the taxpayer need to fork out more money to pay for their education? There would also be a great rise in unemployment of the staff who works at private schools.
It is noted that, in general, private schools have better grades at GCSE and A level than state schools. Yet, why do people view this as a bad thing? The higher private school grades eventually force the government to endlessly improve state education so that the middle-classes do not totally abandon state education for private education. This competition creates reform and progress within state schools and eventually promote them! If the private schools did not exist, where would be the impetus for state school improvement?
Government should not simply ban a system which produces results. It should learn from it and use the private education model as a basis for the state education model. Abolishing a successful system will not help anybody, learning from a successful system will.
1.In the eye of Anirudh Mandagere, parents have the right to ______.
A. criticize state-funded schools
B. pay taxes for the promotion of private schools
C. choose the way their children receive education
D. advocate the competition between state schools and private ones
2.According to the passage, banning private education will ______.
A. obviously contribute to lower taxes
B. not cause the state schools to be overburdened
C. force the government to boost state education
D. lead to many people losing their jobs
3.The underlined word “impetus” in the fourth paragraph probably means ______.
A. motivation B. prevention C. participation D. assessment
4.Compared with state schools, private ones ______.
A. educate a little fewer students B. conduct better than all state ones
C. are better received by the public D. are more competitive on the whole
5.Which of the following statements will Anirudh Mandagere agree with?
A. His wonderful performance results from the education his private school offers.
B. Without the existence of private schools, state ones wouldn’t get improved much.
C. Private education is a good system to make students successful in life.
D. Private schools are supposed to be sponsored more than state ones.

One autumn morning 6 years ago, Johnson Liao was crying in the hall of Taipei’s Sherwood Hotel, life seemed unfair. The people who laughed as they walked 36 were taking their health 37 granted, just as he 38 himself. Now, 39__, he felt helpless—and he couldn’t even show his disappointment in his 40 .
Seeking more personally satisfying 41 , he had just left a successful job as a commercial artist when it seemed that fate(命運(yùn))played a cruel trick on him. It was at this time 42 he developed cancer and was 43 to work. But that moment in the hotel was a turning point for Johnson. He began to 44 the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only 45 .

According to Johnson, you are 46 you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Johnson realized that, while the world 47 seems unfair, your choice can change your life.
This idea can be 48 in Johnson’s books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel 49 making their choices. The message that goes with Johnson’s drawings, however, is 50 .Though the world may make us feel small, we must be 51 . Everything will be all right for us—as it is for the “small people” in Johnson’s books—if we make choices that are 52 for us.
In spite of his new 53 and wealth, Johnson prefers working 54 at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing. To Johnson, living a life as he chooses means much more than money and fame could 55 .

The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means (通訊設(shè)備).Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, Man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.
Pollution by carbon dioxide is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
