2M: You are the headmistress of the Oxford High School for girls. How many girls do you have here?
W: We have 650 girls.
M: In your experience, do girls do better academically and later professionally in single-sex schools?
W: Yes, I think they do better academically. And you can measure that very crudely from the examination results. I also think they do better
academically because they have more opportunities to take the leading role in discussions and managerial responsibilities (Q13). I think they see
the role models (Q14D) of chief positions in the school being held by women (Q14).
M: I wonder if you could say then in a few words what the advantages are for a girl at a single- sex school.
W: Well, I think within the classroom, she is going to have full opportunity to express her own opinions. She isn’t going to be shouted down by
overconfident young gentlemen.
M: Are teenagers in particular do you think sheltered (Q13A) too much from contact with the opposite sex? Does this cause them difficulties when
they find they were in mixed groups?
W: Well, I’d like to find the parents who could shelter girls from the opposite sex if they live in Oxford. They encounter boys all the time socially
out of school, and through debating societies and things like that, some school activities as well (Q15).
M: So, no disadvantages at all?
W: I don’t think there are any disadvantages. I think that it’s grossly overstated that one needs to have contact with the opposite sex right through
the whole of life, in the classroom and outside the classroom and at all ages.
Q13: What does the woman say about the girls in her school?
Q14: What do we learn about the woman’s school?
Q15: What does the woman say about the girls’ social life?
KEY: C A D

There is something about water that makes it a good metaphor for life. That may be one reason why so many people find relief in swimming when
life’s seas get rough. (12) And it goes some way towards explaining why books about swimming, in which people tackle icy lakes, race in rivers
and overcome oceans while reflecting on their lives, have recently become so popular. These books reflect a trend, particularly strong in Britain,
where swimming in pools is declining, but more and more folks are opting for open water. “Wild swimming” seems to be especially popular among
women. (13) Jenny Landreth recently published a guide to the best swimming spots in London. Her new book, Swell, interweaves her own story
with a history of female pioneers who accomplished remarkable feats and paved the way for future generations.
Notions of modesty restricted women in the Victorian era, but they still swam. A “bathing machine” was rolled down to the seashore so women
would not be seen in swimwear. (14) In 1892, The Gentlewoman’s Book of Sport described a woman swimming in a heavy dress, boots, hat,
gloves and carrying an umbrella.
Eventually, swimming became freer. Mixed bathing was permitted on British beaches in 1901. Women won the right to swim in public pools,
learned to swim properly, created appropriate swimwear and, in time, even competed against men. (15) The first woman to cross the English
Channel was Gertrude Ederle in 1926. She beat the record by almost two hours and her father rewarded her with a red sports car.
Q12. What has become so popular recently?
Q13. What did Jenny Landreth do recently?
Q14. What do we learn about women in the Victorian era?
Q15. What does the passage say about Gertrude?

Greg Rosen lost his job as a sales manager nearly three years ago and is still unemployed. “It literally is like something in a dream, to remember
what it’s like to actually be able to go out, and put in a day’s work and receive a day’s pay.”
At first, Rosen bought groceries and made house payments with the help from unemployment insurance. It pays laid-off workers up to half of their
previous wages while they look for work (Q16). But now, that insurance has run out for him, and he has to make tough choices. He’s cut back on
medications and he no longer helps support his disabled mother.
It is a devastating experience. New research says the U.S. recession is now over, but many people remain unemployed. And unemployed workers
face difficult odds.
There is literally only one job opening for every five unemployed workers, so four out of five unemployed workers have actually no chance of
finding a new job.
Businesses have downsized or shut down across America, leaving fewer job opportunities for those in search of work. Experts who monitor
unemployment statistics here in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, say about 28,000 people are unemployed, and many of them are jobless due to no
fault of their own.
That’s where the Bucks County Career-Link comes in. Local director Elizabeth Walsh says they provide training and guidance to help
unemployed workers find local job opportunities(Q17B).
“So here’s the job opening, here’s the job seeker, match them together under one roof,” she says.
But the lack of work opportunities in Bucks County limits how much she can help.
Rosen says he hopes Congress will take action. This month he launched the 99ers Union, an umbrella organization of 18 Internet-based grassroots
groups of 99ers. Their goal is to convince lawmakers to extend unemployment benefits (Q17C).
But Pennsylvania State Representative Scott Petri says governments simply do not have enough money to extend unemployment insurance. He
thinks the best way to help the long-term unemployed is to allow private citizens to invest in local companies that can create more jobs (Q18). But
the boost in investor confidence needed for the plan to work will take time—time that Rosen says still requires him to buy food and make monthly
mortgage payments.
Rosen says he’ll use the last of his savings to try to hang onto the home he worked for more than 20 years to buy. But once that money is gone, he
says he doesn’t know what he’ll do.
Q16. How does unemployment insurance help the unemployed?
Q17. What is local director Elizabeth Walsh of the Bucks County CareerLink doing?
Q18. What does Pennsylvania State Representative Scott Petri say is the best way to help the long-term unemployed?
