Read each paragraph and its topic in bold print. Is the topic too narrow or too broad, or is it the
correct topic? Choose the letter of the correct answer. Egocentrism refers to the tendency of a person to confuse his or her own point of view and that of another person. As young children illustrate, the term does not necessarily imply selfishness at the expense of others, but a centering on the self in thinking. Piaget1 demonstrated this by showing children a table on which models of three mountains had been constructed and asking them how a doll would see the three mountains if it sat at various positions around the table. Three-year-olds commonly believed the dolls saw the layout no differently from the way they did. Adapted from Seifert and Hoffnung, Child and Adolescent Development, 5th ed. (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 2000), 263. Topic: egocentrism a. too broad b. too narrow c. correct topic
En el cibercafè. You find this article in the magazine Tecnimundo. Read the article and then answer the questions that follow.
? El cibercafé Arroba es uno de los sitios más interesantes para los jóvenes de Montevideo. Allí se puede tomar un café o un refresco y comer papas fritas; todo eso, mientras se navega por Internet. Este café tiene las mejores bebidas y la mejor tecnología. Tiene más de veinte computadoras donde los clientes pueden jugar juegos electrónicos, buscar información en la red, mandar mensajes a sus amigos en todas partes del mundo o participar en un salón de charla con otros cibernautas. El dueño del café, don José Tecún, dice que lo que más les gusta a los clientes del sitio es el ambiente: "Los clientes aquí se sienten como en su casa". Eso es importante cuando un estudiante tiene que estar varias horas, escribiendo su tarea, o si quiere estar conectados con sus amigos y familiares en otros países. Por ejemplo, el novio de Julia, una muchacha uruguaya de 17 años, vive en los Estados Unidos. Ella dice que el cibercafé Arroba es su favorito, porque el dueño es simpático y el café es rico. Julia y su novio pasan casi cinco horas todas las noches en un salón de charla para estar virtualmente juntos, aunque estén en dos países diferentes. Así es la vida del siglo XXI. Según este artículo, ¿Arroba es un buen cibercafé? ¿Por qué sí o por qué no? ? _______________________________________________________________________ ? ________________________________________________________________________ ? ________________________________________________________________________ What will be an ideal response?
Read each paragraph and answer the questions that follow by choosing the letter of the correct response.
(1) The fact that Japan is so often included in comparisons among Western countries reflects the fact that the degree of wealth accumulation, industrialization, and modernization that has occurred in that country makes it appear to be part of the Western world. (2) In fact, however, Japanese industrial might masks the fact that Japanese culture is both highly peculiar to that society, and different from Western culture in many ways. (3)_For instance, Japanese culture stresses group norms, the suppression of individualism, suspicion of outsiders, harmony, and conflict avoidance. (4) Japan practices a kind of modified capitalism in which the government is highly involved in industrial development and social welfare. (5) Another related perspective is that in Japan there is an emphasis on informal local-based group formation (such as within schools or workplaces) along with a strong emphasis on security and rules within those settings. (6) These elements produce a high level of self-control and consequently a built- in crime-control mechanism. (7) This is in contrast to countries in the Western world such as the United States that emphasize that individual freedoms are superior to the group and where rules are more limited and permissive. (8) The result is a weakening of crime prevention in Western-type nations and the emphasis on punishment rather than prevention. The topic sentence of this paragraph is a. sentence 1. b. sentence 2. c. sentence 3. d. sentence 4.
