He's not the only volunteer in his family His sister, Melissa, an eighth grader, has completed her hours also volunteering at Larkin-Chase "It is a good idea to have kids go out into the community, but it's frustrating to have to write essays about the works," she said It makes you feel like you're doing it for the requirement and not for yourself." The high school's service learning office, run by Beth Ansley, provides information on organizations seeking volunteers so that students will have an easier time fulfilling their hours "It's ridiculous that people are opposing the requirements," said Amy Rouse, who this summer has worked at the Ronald McDonald House and has helped to rebuild a church in Clinton "So many people won't the service unless it's mandatory," Rouse said, "but once they start doing it, they'll really like it and hopefully it will become a part of their lives - like it has become a part of mine."

(1) cast, a lump formed by squeezing a sample in a clenched fist; (2) thread, a pencil shape formed by rolling soil between the palms; and (3) ribbon, a flatfish shape Trang 3/26 - Mã đề thi 130 formed by squeezing a small sample between the thumb and index finger The behavioral characteristics of the soil when molded into each of these shapes, if they can be formed at all, provides the basis for a general textural classification The behavior of the soil in the hand test is determined by the amount of clay in the sample Clay particles are highly cohesive, and when dampened , behave as a plastic Therefore the higher the clay content in a sample, the more refined and durable the shapes into which it can be molded Another method of determining soil texture involves the use of devices called sediment sieves, screens built with a specified mesh size When the soil is filtered through a group of sieves, each with a different mesh size, the particles become grouped in corresponding size categories Each category can be weighed to make a textural determination Although sieves work well for silt, sand, and larger particles, they are not appropriate for clay particles Clay is far too small to sieve accurately; therefore, in soils with a high proportion of clay, the fine particles are measured on the basis of their settling velocity when suspended in water Since clays settle so slowly, they are easily segregated from sand and silt The water can be drawn off and evaporated, leaving a residue of clay, which can be weighed Question 25: The author mentions "several representative handfuls" in the passage in order to show A the range of soil samples B the requirements for an adequate soil sam C the process by which soil is weighed D how small soil particles are Question 26: It can be inferred that the names of the three basic shapes mentioned in paragraph reflect A the way the soil is extracted B the need to check more than one handful C the difficulty of forming different shapes D the results of squeezing the soil Question 27: The word "dampened" in the passage is closest in meaning to _ A damaged B stretched C moistened D examined Question 28: It can be inferred from the passage that a soil sample with little or no clay in it A does not have a durable shape B is not very heavy C may not hold its shape when molded D does not have a classifiable texture Question 29: The word "they" in the passage refers to A larger particles B sieves C categories D clay particles Question 30: It can be inferred from the passage that the sediment sieve has an advantage over the hand test in determining soil texture because A the sieve allows for a more exact measure B less training is required to use the sieve C using the sieve takes less time D the sieve can measure clay Question 31: During the procedure described in paragraph 3, when clay particles are placed into water they A stick to the sides of the water container B dissolve quickly C take some time to sink to the bottom D separate into different sizes Question 32: The word "fine" in the passage is closest in meaning to A many B excellent C tiny D various Question 33: Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word whose underlined part differs from the other three in pronunciation in the following question A chocolate B chemistry C lunch D speech Question 34: Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to the following question number of boys were swimming in the lake, but I didn’t know _ exact number of them A The/an B The/the C A/the D A/an Question 35: Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to the following question Do you have minutes?

While it is true that some American college students are wealthy, most are from families with moderate incomes Up to 80% of them get some type of financial aid Students from middle and lower-income families often work part-time throughout their college years There is one thing that many college students have in common, but it is not something you will see in the movies They have parents who think higher education is a priority, a necessary and important part of their children's lives Movies about college life usually have characters that are extreme in some way: super athletic, super intelligent, super wealthy, super glamorous, etc Movies use these stereotypes, along with other myths of romance and adventure because audiences like going to movies that include these elements Of course, real college students are not like movie characters at all So the next time you want a taste of the college experience, not go to the movies Look at some college websites or brochures instead Take a walk around your local college campus Visit a few classes True, you may not be able to see the same people or exciting action you will see in the movies, but you can be sure that there are plenty of academic adventures going on all around you !
