Unseen passages

This blog post is supposed to be about unseen passages. SO here it is. Generally unseen passages are hard, so why would they test us on this? It's stupid, really... Students look at the paper and they go " What the... How am I supposed to do this? This is so hard!"
Unseen passages are supposed to be like that. Teachers purposely pick hard passages so that they can fail kids (not really). You can read a passage for 1 month and score better than to look at a passage for 10 minutes and than attempt it straightaway. I mean, if you give the class a passage for the test 3 months ago, you can set the paper how hard you want it, right? This would please the teachers to set questions higher than the kids standards, right? ( Please dont take this seiously...)
