Перевод задания: Прочитай текст и следующие за ним предложения. Определи, является ли информация в каждом предложении верной (T), неверной (F) или в тексте не упоминается (NS).

1. F — в тексте сказано, что американский учебный год не очень длинный, но он не сравнивается с английским. Стоп: сравнение не указано, поэтому правильный ответ — NS (не упоминается).
2. T — учителя выставляют оценки в конце каждого семестра.
3. F — перечислены три периода каникул: весенние, рождественские и летние.
4. NS — текст сообщает о продолжительности старшей школы, но не говорит, что в неё поступает каждый ребёнок.
5. NS — сказано, что ученики сдают экзамены по английскому языку и математике, но не утверждается, что эти предметы самые важные для всех.
6. T — в конце текста говорится, что школьная жизнь в Америке, по общему мнению, не очень трудная.

Ответ: 1 — NS; 2 — T; 3 — F; 4 — NS; 5 — NS; 6 — T.
