Readine Comnrehension Passage I
Read the following passage carefully. Then answer the question below
Most children in lx»or countries don't have enough food to eat. They don't have the fancy clothes, toys and other things that children of more deve101k countries have. Instead of going to school to gain a gocxl education, children in countries set out to work from as young as four or five years Old. By the age Of twelve, most of them are given the responsibilities Of looking after and sumx»rting their parents who are Often weak from hunger and ill health
Deprived Of any form of education from such a young age, these underprivileged children are forced to take up illegal odd jobs which often have hazardous and unsuitable working conditions. Since it is illegal for young children to work, the or factories that do hire these children hide them away from the main working areas. They trap children for long stretches of time in dark and dirty rooms. In India, for example, there are children who work in factories which manufacture matches. The working hours in these factories are long and the work is tedious, but what is most significant is that such factories are fire hazards. Not only do these children risk their lives by working, but they are also exploited as they are paid minimal wages
The United Nations encouraged countries to prohibit the import of products made by children under the age of 15. We may think such measures will stop the problem of child exnloitation, but the truth is they may lead to other problems. Even though the garment factories may be exploiting children by paying them low salaries, they do nevertheless provide them with a more or less safe working environment and proper jobs. Dismissing children from work does not necessarily mean that children will no longer work. In fact, they may end up in the hands of drug pushers or other criminals and lead a life of vice selling drugs or steal for a living

Helping black teenagers to read
There have been substantial Of black children in Britain's secondary schools for many years now, but most Of the reading material available to them is still directed at the white majority. Carol Bergman, a young American who taught remedial reading classes for the Inner London Education Authority from 1968 until last year, believe; that the lack Of material to directly to black students is part Of the reason many Of them need remedial reading at secondary level. TO solve this problem, she published books that the heroes are black to boost them to read. In addition, She suggested hiring the black in good positions there is much higher unemployment among black school-leavers than white. It doesn't help to lie about the fact that there is discrimination. In her opinion, black kids should learn to read side by side with the white. This will help them read and go on further education. They must be awarded if they deserve so
