1. Background Information ( 5
minutes)
1) Education in the United
States
The national system of formal
education in the United States took shape in the
19th century. It
differed from educational
systems of other Western countries in three
fundamental respects. First,
Americans were
more inclined to regard education as a solution to
various social problems. Second,
because they
had this confidence in the power of education,
Americans provided more years of
schooling for
a larger percentage of the population than other
countries. Third, educational institutions
were primarily run by local authorities rather
than by federal ones.
2) Some Famous Test:
SAT; TOEFL; IELTS; MBA; MPA; GRE; GMAT; LSAT;
TOEIC
3) Cyndi Lauper
American singer,
vocalist, movie star who has released a lot of
albums. Cyndi Lauper (full
2
name: Cynthia Ann Stephanie Lauper Thornton),
was born in Brooklyn, New York on June 22nd
1953.
She took up playing the guitar and
writing lyrics at the age of 12. The first song
she learnt to
play was “Green sleeves.” In the
mid-70s she performed as a vocalist with various
cover bands in the
New York metropolitan area.
