The changing profile of a city in the United States is apparent in the shifting definitions used by the United States Bureau of the Census. In 1870 the census officially distinguished the nation's “urban” from its “rural” population for the first time. “Urban population” was defined as persons living in towns of 8,000 inhabitants or more. But after 1900 it meant persons living in incorporated places having 2,500 or more inhabitants. Then, in 1950 the Census Bureau radically changed its definition of “urban” to take account of the new vagueness of city boundaries. In addition to persons living in incorporated units of 2,500 or more, the census now included those who lived in unincorporated units of that size, and also all persons living in the densely settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas located around cities of 50,000 inhabitants or more. Each such unit, conceived as an integrated economic and social unit with a large population nucleus, was named a Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA).

Each SMSA would contain at least (a) one central city with 50,000 inhabitants or more or (b) two cities having shared boundaries and constituting, for general economic and social purposes, a single community with a combined population of at least 50,000, the smaller of which must have a population of at least 15,000. Such an area included the county in which the central city is located, and adjacent counties that are found to be metropolitan in character and economically and socially integrated with the county of the central city. By 1970, about two-thirds of the population of the United States was living in these urbanized areas, and of that figure more than half were living outside the central cities.

While the Census Bureau and the United States government used the term SMSA (by 1969 there were 233 of them), social scientists were also using new terms to describe the elusive, vaguely defined areas reaching out from what used to be simple “towns” and “cities”. A host of terms came into use: “metropolitan regions,” “polynucleated population groups”, “conurbations,” “metropolitan clusters,” “megalopolises,” and so on.

Prior to 1900, how many inhabitants would a town have to have before being defined as urban?

A. 2,500

B. 8,000

C. 15,000

D. 50,000

Đáp án B

Giải thích: “Urban population” was defined as persons living in towns of 8,000 inhabitants or more. But after 1900 it meant persons living in incorporated places having 2,500 or more inhabitants.

Dịch nghĩa: "Dân số đô thị" được định nghĩa là những người sống ở các thị trấn 8.000 dân trở lên. Nhưng sau 1900 nó có nghĩa là những người sống ở những khu vực hợp nhất có 2.500 cư dân hoặc hơn.

Như vậy, trước năm 1900 mỗi đô thị cần có ít nhất 8,000 cư dân. Con số này sau năm 1900 mới được thay đổi. Phương án B. 8,000 là phương án chính xác nhất.

Dịch nghĩa: Trong khi Cục điều tra dân số và Chính phủ Hoa Kỳ sử dụng khái niệm SMSA (đến năm 1969 đã có 233 trong số đó), các nhà khoa học xã hội cũng đã đang sử dụng thuật ngữ mới để mô tả các khu vực mơ hồ, khó xác định vươn ra từ những gì từng là các "thị trấn" và “thành phố" đơn giản.

Như vậy những khu vực thành thị hiện nay đã mơ hồ và khó nắm bắt hơn rất nhiều so với năm 1950, do đó mới có sự thay đổi tên gọi.

Phương án A. City borders had become less distinct = biên giới thành phố đã trở nên ít rõ rệt; là phương án chính xác nhất.

B. Cities had undergone radical social change = Các thành phố đã trải qua những thay đổi xã hội triệt để.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.

As the twentieth century began, the importance of formal education in the United States increased. The frontier had mostly disappeared and by 1910 most Americans lived in towns and cities. Industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life combined with a new emphasis upon credentials and expertise to make schooling increasingly important for economic and social mobility. Increasingly, too, schools were viewed as the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society.

The arrival of a great wave of southern and eastern European immigrants at the turn of the century coincided with and contributed to an enormous expansion of formal schooling. By 1920 schooling to age fourteen or beyond was compulsory in most states, and the school year was greatly lengthened. Kindergartens, vacation schools, extracurricular activities, and vocational education and counseling extended the influence of public schools over the lives of students, many of whom in the larger industrial cities were the children of immigrants. Classes for adult immigrants were sponsored by public schools, corporations, unions, churches, settlement houses, and other agencies.

Reformers early in the twentieth century suggested that education programs should suit the needs of specific populations. Immigrant women were once such population. Schools tried to educate young women so they could occupy productive places in the urban industrial economy, and one place many educators considered appropriate for women was the home.

Although looking after the house and family was familiar to immigrant women, American education gave homemaking a new definition. In preindustrial economies, homemaking had meant the production as well as the consumption of goods, and it commonly included income-producing activities both inside and outside the home, in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States, however, overproduction rather than scarcity was becoming a problem. Thus, the ideal American homemaker was viewed as a consumer rather than a producer. Schools trained women to be consumer homemakers cooking, shopping, decorating, and caring for children "efficiently" in their own homes, or if economic necessity demanded, as employees in the homes of others. Subsequent reforms have made these notions seem quite out-of-date.

Vacation schools and extracurricular activities are mentioned in paragraph 2 to illustrate _____.

A. alternatives to formal education provided by public schools

B. the importance of educational changes

C. activities that competed to attract new immigrants to their programs

D. the increased impact of public schools on students
