Part1. Reading
a)Comprehension

Read the text carefully then do the activities that follow.
Bullying in British schools has reached epidemic levels. Last week, England’s Commissioner for Children said nearly every child was affected by the problem. Education ministers are keen to reverse the worrying trend, especially as today is the start of Anti-Bullying Week. Politicians are thinking about fining the parents of bullies up to $1,700. Schools minister Jacqui Smith said: “This will send a strong message to parents that schools will not tolerate a failure to take responsibility for bullying.” Other proposals give teachers the right to restrain students “through reasonable force” where necessary.
Ms. Smith said: “Bullying should never be tolerated in our schools, no matter what its motivation.” She added that: “Children must know what is right and what is wrong.” She said children must know what will happen if they cross the line. She spoke after many recent cases of violence in schools. Twelve-year-old bullies have slashed their victims with knives and used iron bars to beat students unconscious. One child was told she would be “dead meat” if she returned to school. It seems many of Britain’s schoolchildren are more interested in tormenting and injuring other students than learning.
