I. Study the text and choose the best answers to the questions that follow.

            While bullying has always been a problem encountered during childhood and adolescence, we all know it is on the rise. When a child is intentionally and repeatedly mean to another child, the cycle begins. Bullying occurs on the playgrounds, at lunch in the cafeteria, in locker rooms, even over the phone. And now that so many children have access to the latest technology, the problem has become even more prevalent.

5           Enter the newest room–cyber bullying–whereby children and teens deliberately use digital media to disseminate false, embarrassing, or just plain mean messages or pictures about one person to others. Cyberbullying can occur via text, email, Facebook, Twitter, or other social media outlets. The American Academy of Pediatrics calls cyberbullying “the most common online risk for all teen.”

            Studies have shown that between 25 percent to 45 percent of teens report being bullied online. Many kids

10  report such treatment having occurred more than once. Cyberbullying is affecting all ages, as even young children often have access to technology and the Internet.

            Children of all ages need to understand that the Internet is not a “safe” place, and that it is a public forum. Even if you delete a message or photo, it actually continues to exist in cyberspace. Also, many teens mistakenly think they will not “get caught” if they bully someone online, or that such behavior is “not that big a deal.”

15         All parents need to discuss Internet safety and the problem of cyberbullying with their children. This is especially important for tweens and teens, as they spend much of their time online. Just as kids must learn and practice good manners in public, they also need to mind their manners online. If a child would not say something to another young person’s face, then the same dig should not be emailed or texted. It is really as simple as that.

            This is what I call the “front door rule”: Tell your child that if he/she writes an email or text, or posts something

20  derogatory about another person on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram (or other sites), to think before they push “send.” If they would not want to post the information on their front door for family members and all the neighbors to see, they should stop, think and change–or forget about–the message. It could hurt someone more than they realize and could also be forwarded on to hundreds, thousands, even millions of others.

II. The text below has incomplete sentences. Choose the one word or phrase from each number that best completes the sentences.

            A common way of gaining knowledge is through experience, which relies on trial-and-error learning. One of the authors is reminded of a time when he (51) _______ an Old Order Amish farmer while their two 5-year-old sons played with a small snapping turtle. As the Amish boy held the turtle in one hand he would reach out with the other and tap the turtle’s beak with his index finger, jerking it away as the animal (52) _______ in the air. Several times, the farmer interrupted his conversation to warn his son that if he continued (53) _______ the turtle, he would be sorry. Suddenly, the boy (54) _______ and dropped the turtle to the ground. As the father retrieved a handkerchief from his pocket and attended to the young boy’s bleeding finger, the man looked into his son’s eyes and said in German (55) _______ into “Maybe the turtle has taught you what your father could not.” The author could not help but feel that his son, who stood in horror (56) _______ his Amish friend’s bleeding finger, had also learned something from the experience.

            An old adage (57) _______, “Experience is the best teacher.” If our knowledge is (58) _______, however, then it is limited indeed, for experience is the best teacher only if we cannot also find other paths to knowledge. Because experience is a very (59) _______ of gaining knowledge, it is influenced by our social and cultural backgrounds. (60) _______ is punctuated by diversity as people of different racial, ethnic, gender, and socioeconomic backgrounds not only experience vastly different things in life, but, more important, often interpret similar experiences quite differently.
