    The passage discusses being on time and how schools should handle late students. It states that while being on time is important, it can be difficult for students to learn. Schools should try to instill discipline through a loving environment rather than punishment. If warnings don't work for a late student, the school should invite their parents in rather than shutting them out or punishing them harshly. Schools have a responsibility to teach through appropriate means, and understanding students is key. Both parents and schools should work together without blame.

    Fuel Price

    Government should not raise fuel price to solve the problem of economic issues. People
    were affected severely with the high fuel price like last year. Obviously they cut their
    spending. As an example, they had to buy lower quality of rice or palm oil. There were
    also fewer buyers of secondary commodities like flour, or canned meat or fish.
    Furthermore, the condition of low income family will become even worse because their
    expenses will increase while their salaries will not. Many companies will have to trim the
    number of employees because they are incapable of managing, buying or selling price,
    standard wages and personal affairs.

    should be sought by tapping into the nation’s own potential and utilizing it to enhance

    Boarding School Education
    There are many arguments in favor of a boarding school education. Nevertheless, the boarding
    school is not always the best education institution for everyone.
    At an early age interacting and communicating with people is very important for a child’s personal
    life and can be especially helpful for his/her future. In a boarding school, shy children can take
    advantage of interaction through communal activities. The boarding school also offers a great
    variety of activities such as arts, sports, and music that allow children to demonstrate and develop
    specialized skills in their free time.
    Furthermore, the structured way of life and strict rules at the boarding school may helps students
    to get used to a well ordered way of life. The manners and social skills will help them to become
    more responsible and confident, and to develop their talents in leadership. Professionally trained
    teachers and educators in the boarding school can offer excellent education without the parents’
    constant supervision.
    In spite of these good points, it is not advisable to send a child to a boarding school if he/she is a
    dependent learner. A boarding school usually demands that student learn independently. In
    addition, the boarding school should not be seen as a measure to solve inappropriate behavior or
    unsatisfactory study performance. Instead of improving, problematic children may close off their
    relationship with their peers and teachers.
    In conclusion although a boarding school may provide good education to many children, it is not
    recommended for those who are strongly attached to their families. They may become frustrated
    and socially isolated.

    Students’ Cheating
    Students’ cheating is one of the biggest problems faced by teachers nowadays.
    Despite the fact that teachers advise their students not to do dishonest acts during tests, some
    students still do cheating. There are many kinds of cheating that students do during the test or
    examination, such as looking other students’ work, put some notes under their clothes, write notes
    or formulas on their desks make hand signals or go to rest rooms to get the answers from their
    friends.
    In my view, students who do cheating are committing a crime. It is a sort of taking something
    illegally. This crime causes negative results to the students. Students who always cheat deteriorate
    their mental capacity. Cheating acts also create dependence. They weaken their self confidence.
    Instead of preparing for the coming test, they are busy to organize notes on a piece of paper. If this
    awful habit continues, the students will lose their opportunity to develop their intellectual and
    mind.
    Therefore, school should consider cheating as a very serious problem. School board and
    administration should go hand to overcome this matter. Honesty must be put in school’s vision.
    Harsh punishment must be applied to students who commit this crime.

    A. support
    B. worsen
    C. cause
    D. create

    Dear Editor
    We are writing to complain about ads on TV. There are so many ads, especially during our favourite
    programmes. We think they should be stopped for a number of reasons.
    First, ads are nuisance. They go on for a long time and there are so many. Sometimes there seems to
    be more ads than programmes.
    Second, ads are bad influence on people. They try to encourage people to buy unhealthy food like
    beer, soft drink, candy and chips. And they make people want things they do not really need and can
    not.
    Finally, the people who make ads have too much say in what programmes people watch. That is
    because they want to put all their ads on popular programs that a lot of people watch. Some
    programmes which are not so popular get stopped because they do not attract enough ads, even
    though those programmes may be someone’s favourite.
    For those reasons, we think TV station should stop showing ads. They interrupt programmes. They
    are bad influences on people, and they are sometimes put a stop to people’s favourite shows. We
    are sick of ads, and now we mostly watch other channels.

    [12:31, 6/12/2022] Mama Wa: Being On time


    Being on time is a beautiful social ethic and one of great importance, as it creates efficiency in
    system and implies respect for one another. However, it is one the many values that is not easy for
    our students to learn.
    Inner discipline, one that comes from an understanding of the set rules and regulation, is the
    highest form behavior. Most excellent schools try to instill this with a loving environment. Why,
    even adults arrive late to meeting, work, et c. Here, we do not agree that late comers should be shut
    out. They can be given warnings, most of which are enough to make them try their best to reach the
    school on time latter. If this fails, invite the parent to school.
    By closing the gates, the school is behaving cruelly, to which we prefer not to expose our children.
    Every school has responsibility to implant good educational principle, but it should be in
    appropriate ways. Good schools create competitive students who can organize themselves
    effectively in society, so that everyone gets a quality life as a result of the ethics and values learned
    for as long as 12 years.
    Children are precious and dependent on the adult for guidance. Understanding them is the key, and
    to this end, both parents and schools must work hand in hand without playing the blame game.
