Evidence supports the importance of family participation. Getting parents and other significant adults involved in school improves young peoples' attitudes toward school and contributes to their overall school success. Parental involvement in school results in clear gains in the achievement of children. Involved parents have children with more positive attitudes about school and higher

aspirations for the future. Parental and family involvement results in achievement gains and improved attitudes toward education for several reasons. Parents and primary caregivers are children's first teachers and have worked with their children for five or six years before teachers become involved. Parents know their children and continue to have a powerful influence on their attitudes and learning. Nevertheless, adult support does not provide the same influence in all situations. Parental attitudes toward their children can cover a wide range of responses from helpful and supportive to domineering and intimidating, to displaying indifference, or to demonstrating open hostility. Family involvement tends to decline as children get older. For the most part, parents of elementary-age children control the environment and resources available to their children and have a great influence on children through the decisions and choices they make. Families continue to influence young people even as they begin to exercise their own independence in middle and high school, although this influence is not as obvious and direct. The changing relationship between families and their older children requires adjustments in expectations throughout the school years as students take on more responsibility for decision making. The common decline in parental involvement at middle and high school can be avoided if parents and teachers consider and plan for the changing needs of students. All students, no matter what level, want their families to understand and be more knowledgeable about school. When children are young, they are usually delighted to see parents and other family members at school. As students get older, they can take responsibility for engaging their family in school activities and communicating with them about homework and school decisions. In middle and high school, parental and family involvement may not be as explicit as it was in earlier years and may take different forms, but it is equally important. The main idea of the passage is a. children need to take greater responsibility for their own successes andfailures. b. parental involvement in education is very important, even at the upper gradelevels. c. family involvement in children's education declines as children get older. d. parents are their children's first teachers.

Read the passage and answer the questions about it below.

You may think today’s cash rebate programs from car manufacturers are relatively new, but in 1914, Henry Ford announced that if he sold 300, 000 Model Ts that year, each customer would receive a rebate. When the company reached its goal, Ford returned $50 to each buyer. This was good business. It also was good public relations. Like Henry Ford, public relations people today work to create favorable images— for corporations, public officials, products, schools, hospitals and associations. There are three ways to encourage people to do what you want them to do: power, patronage and persuasion. Power involves ruling by law, but it also can mean ruling by peer pressure—someone does something because his or her friends do. Patronage is a polite term for bribery—paying someone with favors or money to do what you want. The third method—persuasion—is the approach of public relations. Persuasion is the act of using argument or reasoning to induce someone to do something. Like advertising, the public relations business is not a mass medium. Public relations involves creating an understanding for, or goodwill toward, a company, a person, or a product. Which sentence in paragraph 1 states an opinion?
