A Texas middle school is under fire after students say they have been banned from speaking Spanish in class. The students say their principal announced the rule last month over the intercom. Inside the walls of Hemptead Middle School, a language controversy is brewing. “There’s one teacher that said, „If you speak Spanish in my class, I’m gonna write you up,” 8th grader Tiffani Resurez says. Four students say their principal’s announcement – banning them from speaking Spanish in class – has given teachers and fellow students a hall pass to discriminate. “She was like, „No speaking Spanish.’ She told me that. I was like, „That’s my first language.’ She said, „Well, you can get out,” fellow classmate Yedhany Gallegos says. A letter sent home by the superintendent says, “Neither the district nor any campus has any policy prohibiting the speaking of Spanish.” The four students feel that the statement from the superintendent has not been made entirely clear that their school. “People don’t want to speak it anymore and don’t want to get caught speaking it because they’re going to get into trouble,” 6th grader Kiara Lozano says. Parents, like Cynthia Zamora, believe the school is not getting to the root of the problem. She wants to know why the “No Spanish” announcement was ever made in the first place. “I was very surprised that she would even go to such lengths,” Zamora says. Many students at the school grew up speaking Spanish at home, and they say it often comes as second nature when they’re talking to each other at school. “I’m not scared. I’m gonna keep speaking my language. That’s my first language, and I’m gonna keep doing it,” Lozano said. The principal has been placed on paid administrative leave while the district investigates. A spokewoman for Hempstead Independent School District has released a statement saying, in part, “The district is committed to efficiently and effectively resolving this matter with as little disruption to our students and their learning environment as possible.” 

Why was the policy introduced?

A. The superintendent wants students to speak only English at school 

B. No one at school is Spanish 

C. The principal hates Spanish

TEXAS

Một trường trung học ở Texas đang bị lên án sau khi học sinh nói rằng họ đã bị cấm nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha trong lớp. Các sinh viên nói rằng hiệu trưởng của họ đã công bố quy tắc vào tháng trước về hệ thống liên lạc nội bộ. Bên trong những bức tường của trường trung học Heemead, một cuộc tranh cãi về ngôn ngữ đang diễn ra. Một giáo viên dạy tiếng Anh nói: "Nếu em nào nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha trong lớp của tôi, tôi sẽ lập biên bản cho em,” học sinh lớp 8 Tiffani Resurez nói. Bốn học sinh nói rằng thông báo chính của họ - cấm họ nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha trong lớp - đã cho giáo viên và học sinh vượt qua để phân biệt đối xử. Cô ấy giống như, “Không nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha.” Cô ấy nói với tôi điều đó. Tôi giống như, “Đó là ngôn ngữ mẹ đẻ của em”. Cô ấy nói, “Vậy thì, em có thể ra ngoài”, bạn cùng lớp của Yedhany Gallegos nói. Một bức thư của quản lý gửi về nhà viết rằng, “không phải khu học chánh hay khu học xá nào cũng có bất kỳ chính sách nào cấm nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha”. Bốn học sinh cảm thấy rằng tuyên bố của quản lý đã không được làm rõ hoàn toàn rằng trường của họ. “Mọi người không còn muốn nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha nữa và cũng không muốn bị bắt vì họ sẽ gặp rắc rối,” học sinh lớp 6 Kiara Lozano nói. Phụ huynh, như Cynthia Zamora, tin rằng trường học không đi đến gốc rễ của vấn đề. Cô ấy muốn biết lý do tại sao thông báo đầu tiên của “không được nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha” được đưa ra ngay từ đầu. Tôi đã rất ngạc nhiên khi cô ấy thậm chí sẽ đi những quãng đường dài như vậy, Zam Zamora nói. Nhiều học sinh trong trường lớn lên nói tiếng Tây Ban Nha ở nhà, và họ nói rằng nó rất tự nhiên khi họ nói chuyện với nhau ở trường. "Tôi không sợ. Tôi sẽ tiếp tục nói ngôn ngữ của mình. Đó là ngôn ngữ mẹ đẻ, và tôi sẽ tiếp tục thực hiện nó.” Hiệu trưởng đã được nghỉ phép hành chính có lương trong khi quận điều tra. Một nữ phát ngôn viên của Học khu độc lập Hempstead đã đưa ra một tuyên bố rằng, một phần, “Học khu cam kết giải quyết vấn đề này một cách hiệu quả nhất và với ít sự gián đoạn nhất đối với học sinh và môi trường học tập của chúng.”

BASKETBALL

Although he created the game of basketball at the YMCA in Springfield, Massachusetts, Dr. James A Naismith was a Canadian. Working as a physical education instructor at the International YMCA, now Springfield College, Dr. Naismith noticed a lack of interest in exercise among students during the wintertime. The New England winters were fierce, and the students balked at participating in outdoor activities. Naismith determined a fast-moving game that could be played indoors would fill a void after the baseball and football seasons had ended.

First, he attempted to adapt outdoor games such as soccer and rugby to indoor play, but he soon found them unsuitable for confined areas. Finally, he determined that he would have to invent a game.

In December of 1891, Dr. Naismith hung two old peach baskets at either end of the gymnasium at the school, and, using a soccer ball and nine players on each side, organized the first basketball game. The early rules allowed three points for each basket and made running with the ball violation. Every time a goal was made, someone had to climb a ladder to retrieve the ball.

Nevertheless, the game became popular. In less than a year, basketball was being played in both the United States and Canada. Five years later, a championship tournament was staged in New York City, which was won by the Brooklyn Central YMCA.

The teams had already been reduced to seven players, and five became standard in 1897 season. When basketball was introduced as a demonstration sport in the 1904 Olympic Games in St. Luis, it quickly spread throughout the world. In 1906, a metal hoop was used for the first time to replace the basket, but the name basketball has remained.

Why did Naismith decide to invent basketball?

A. He was tired of baseball and football 

B. He did not like soccer or rugby. 

C. He wanted his students to exercise during the winter. 

D. He could not convince his students to play indoors.

Naismith determined a fast-moving game that could be played indoors would fill a void after the baseball and football seasons had ended.
(Tiến sĩ Naismith nhận thấy sự thiếu quan tâm tới thế dục ở các sinh viên trong suốt mùa đông. Mùa đông ở nước Anh thì khốc liệt; và các sinh viên ngần ngại khi tham gia các hoạt động ngoài trời. Naismith xác định một trò chơi chuyển động nhanh có thể chơi được trong nhà sẽ lấp đầy khoảng trống sau khi mùa bóng chày và bóng đá đã kết thúc.)
