Read the passage and choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D to each of the questions (1,25 point).
Why do parents have to get involved in their child’s education? Basically, parents’ involvement in their child’s learning process offers many opportunities for success. According to Centre for Child Well-Being (2010), parental involvement in their children’s learning not only improves a child’s morale, attitude, and academic achievement across all subject areas, but it also promotes better behavior and social adjustment. It further says that family involvement in education helps children to grow up to be productive, responsible members of the society.
Regrettably, there are also some, if not many, parents who are quite passive in their child’s education. Some of them are not directly involved. Neither are they visible in the school premises and get involved in the desired goals of the school where their children are getting what they need most for life.
Several schools, both private and public sectors, have programs designed at intensifying parental participation such as boys and girls scouting, school-community socio-economic projects, disaster volunteer task force, and school-community work brigade. However, increasing parental involvement remains a tough challenge among school administrators and their teachers despite clear programs, concerted efforts, and strong motivations.
Question 26: What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The importance of parents’ involvement in children’s education.
B. The necessity of parents and teachers in children’s education.

Question 28: . What does the word “grow up” in paragraph 1 mean?

Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of the whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally, spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warm, and instruct people.
While verbalization is most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.
