professionally insingle-sex schools?

crudely from the examinationresults, (13) I also think they do better
academically because they have moreopportunities to take the leading role in
discussions and in managerial responsibilities.(14)I think they see the role
models of the chief positions in the school beingheld by women.
M：I wonder if you could saythen in a few words what the advantages are for
a girl at a single-sex , I think within the classroom, she’s going to
have full opportunity toexpress her own opinions. She isn’t going to be shouted
down by over- confidentyoung gentlemen.
W: Areteenagers in particular, do you think, sheltered too much from
contact with theopposite sex? Does this cause them difficulties when they find
themselves inmixed groups?
M：Well, I would like to findthe parents who could shelter girls from the
opposite sex if they live in Oxford.(15)They encounter boys all the time socially
out of school, and throughdebating societies and things like that, some school
activities as well.
M: So, nodisadvantages at all?
W：I don’t think there are anydisadvantages. I think that it’s grossly
overstated that one needs to havecontact with the opposite sex right through
the whole of life, in the classroomand outside the classroom and at all ages.

accent that wouldbe more acceptable to his audience. (18)After reading a book
on how to addressfor success, he had purchased an expensive dark navy suit
and golden tie. Hechose colors and styles known to communicate power and
influence. (19)Justbefore people began entering the hall, Larry dimmed the
lights and turned upthe sound system, which was playing soft music, hoping to
create a warmpersonal atmosphere for the speech. He hoped that these added

Passage Two
PhillisWheatley was a young African-American slave who belonged to
landowner JohnWheatley in Colonial America. (20)She was also a poet and the
firstAfrican- American ever to publish a book. Her poems on various
subjects,religious and moral were printed in Boston in 1773, three years before
thesigning of the Declaration of Independence. Early slaves were generally
deniededucation, but Wheatley was allowed by her owner to study poetry, Latin
and theBible. And by the time she reached her late teens, she had written
enoughpoetry to put together a slender book of verse. Even so, publication
wasdifficult. (21)The publisher, fearful of being cheated, forced her to submit
tohis scholarly examination by a board of educated men, including the
colonialgovernor. The board of judges questioned Wheatley extensively and
ruled thatshe was educated enough to have written the book. Only then was
publicationpermitted. Wheatley may have been the first, but she was not the
only slave towrite books during the growing days of the Republic. Unfortunately,
most of theearly popular African-American writers have been all but forgotten in
moderntimes until now. A chronicle professor, Henry Louis Gates, recently
studied aresearch project looking into 19th century African-American fiction and
poetry.(22)In the process he uncovered numerous lost works, almost half of
which werewritten by African-American women. In very literary styles, the
newlyresurfaced manuscripts offered a rich stock of African- American
culture,recreating among other things the early days of slavery and the
importance ofreligion to the slaves.
