Education is often viewed as school in a traditional, formal sense. Many people believe that true learning can only take place in a formal classroom setting. Others feel education occurs in many different form and environment. There may not be a definitive answer to the question of, "What is education?" However we start thinking about the purpose of education. Is it to educate youth to be responsible citizen? Is it to developed individual, as well as society, in order to ensure a society's economic success? Or is it to simply focus on developing individual talents and intelegence? Perhaps it is the balance of all three that defines education? While our answers may differ, we can perhaps agree that education is basic human right. When that right is granted growth and development, the society as a whole is more likely to improve in areas such as health, nutrition, general income and living standards, and population fertility rates.

As global citizen it is our responsibility to critically think about the issue and attempt to come up with solution to the problems plaquing education. In 1990 UNESCO launched EFA, the movement to fight quality education for all children, youth, and adult by the year 2015. The unfortunate reality is that for many countries, larger issues come before improving the quality of education. How can we achieve the goal of EFA when numerous counties around the world are faced with challenges that seems far too impossible to overcome? The answer lies in attempting to bridge some of the haps that prevent developing nation to compete with developed nations. One example is that of providing preater access to technology and narrowing the ever widening digital divide. In many ways the most basic access to technology can serve as valuable education tool. Individual who are not afforded this access area a disadvantage when trying to grasp opportunity to make life better for themselves, their families, and their community.

A Spanish researcher and a Paraguayan the scientist have presented the most complete and detailed European study into the repertoire of sounds used by bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncates) to communicate. The study reveals the complexity and our lack of understanding about the communication of these marine mammals.

Until now, the scientific community had thought that whistles were the main sounds made by these mammals, and were unaware of the importance and use of burst-pulsed sounds. Researchers from the Bottlenose Dolphin Research Institute (BDRI), based in Sardinia (Italy) have now shown that these sounds are vital to the animal's social life and mirror their behavior.

"Burst-pulsed sounds are used in the life of bottlenose dolphins to socialize and maintain their position in hierarchy in order to prevent physical conflict, and this also represents a significant energy saving." Bruno Diaz, lead author of the study and a researcher at BDRI, which he also manages, said.

According to the experts, the tonal whistle sounds (the most melodious ones) allow dolphins to stay in contact with each other (above all mothers and offspring), and to coordinate hunting strategies. The burst-pulsed sounds (which are more complex and varied than the whistles) are used "to avoid physical aggression in situation of high excitement, such as when they are competing for the same piece of food, for example," explain Diaz. According to Diaz, bottlenose dolphins make longer burst-pulsed sounds when they are hunting and at times of high aggression: These are what can be heard best and over the longest period of time, and make it possible for each individual to maintain its position in the hierarchy.

The dolphins emit these strident sounds when in the presence of other individuals moving. towards the same prey. The "least dominant" one soon moves away in order to avoid confrontation. "The surprising thing about these sounds is that they have a high level of uni-directionality unlike human sounds One dolphin can send a sound to another that it sees as a competitor, and this one clearly knows it is being addressed." explains the Spanish scientist.

There's growing agreement among exercise researches that the intense physical activities offered by most health clubs is not the only - or even necessarily the best - path to better health. In fact, the best thing most of us can do, say the experts, may be to walk.

Yes, walk. Not run or jog or sprint. Just walk, at a reasonably energetic speed (3 m.p.h-4 m.p.h) for half an hour or so, maybe five or six times a week. You may not feel the benefits all at once, but the evidence suggests that over the long term, a regular walking routine can do a world of preventive good, from lowering your risk of stroke, diabetes and osteoporosis to treating arthritis, high blood pressure and even depression.

Walking, in fact, may be the perfect exercise. For starters, it's one of the safest things you can do with your body. It's much easier on the knees than running and, beyond an occasional stitch in the side, doesn't trigger unpleasant side effects. "Regular physical activities is probably as close to a magic bullet as we will come in modern medicine," says Dr. Joann Manson, chief of preventive medicine at Harvard's Brigham and Women's Hospital. "If everyone in the U.S. were to walk briskly 30 minutes a day, we could cut the incidence of many chronic disease 30% to 40%",

If Americans want to do that, they have a long way to go. Fewer than a third of adults in the US. get the recommended amount of exercise cach day and 40% are almost completely inactive. The result, as reported by the Surgeon General last month: a nation in which obesity may soon overtake cigarette smoking as the leading cause of preventable death.

8. The phrase "If everyone in the U.S. were to walk briskly 30 minutes a day, ....." (last sentence of paragraph 3) means that...

A. Americans are used to running
B. Americans are used to walking
C. Americans walk slowly
D. Americans do not walk regularly
E. Americans run too fast

Jawaban: D.

9. All of the following statements are TRUE about Americans today, EXCEPT that...

A. Obesity is the second highest cause of death
B. They do not walk regularly every day
C. Less than a third of the adults need regular exercise
D. Almost half of the adults do not do any exercise
E. They do not prevent themselves form disease

Jawaban: A.

10. This kind of text can usually be found in a...

A. Youth tabloid
B. Scientific journal
C. Sports magazine
D. Medical textbook
E. Socioeconomic report

Jawaban: D.
