IV: Read the text and questions below. Mark the correct letter A, B, C or D for each question.
Not only does Linda Greenlaw do one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, but she also
does it extremely well. She has been described as "one of the best captains on the entire East coast"
and that, in one of the leading countries in fishing industry, is praise indeed.
Linda was born and brought up on Isle au Haut, a tiny island ten kilometers off the coast of
Maine, USA. She fell in love with fishing as a child, and she worked on fishing boats during her
summer breaks from college.
Her first opportunity to go on a deep-sea fishing trip came when she was nineteen. Alden
Leeman, a man she'd never met before hired her for thirty days on his sword fishing boat. The trip
was a success and eventually Alden offered Linda her first boat to captain in 1986, which probably
made her the only woman ever to captain a fishing boat. (thanh gươm- uy quyền)
So, why did she take up fishing in the first place? Linda says that not only does she like the
way she feels on a boat, but she also gets passionate about catching a fish. More than anything she's

proud of being a fisherman, even more so than she is of being a best selling author.
Linda has published four books to date, the first of which, The Hungry Ocean, was top of the
New York bestseller list for three months. In it, Linda tells the story of one fishing trip and narrates
the adventures she experienced on board with her five- man crew, including bad weather, sickness,
mechanical problems and, of course, the fish.
But the world of fish and fishing is a man's world and it's not easy to find a word to describe
Linda Greenlaw. In her own words, she says: "I am a woman. I am a fisherman not "a
fisherwoman", "fisherlady" or "fishergirl".
1. Linda is………….
A. American
B. British
C. Canadian
D. Hungarian
2. Her first-deep fishing trip was………….
A. when she was a child.
B. before she was twenty
C. in 1986
D. before she was nineteen.
3. Linda took up fishing because ………….
A. she needed to earn some money.
B. all her family are fishermen.
C. she loves boats and catching fish.
D. she fell in love with a fisherman.
4. On the boat described in The Hungry Ocean………….
A. there were six men
B. there four people


5.

C. there were five people
Linda prefers to be described as a………….
A. s fishwoman
B. a fisherlady

D. There were six people
C. a fisherman

D. a fishergirl

IV. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer
In the past, both men and women were expected to be married at quite young ages. Marriages
were generally arranged by parents and family, with their children having little chance to say no in
the matter. In the past it was not surprising to find that a bride and groom had only just met on the
day of their engagement or marriage.
In modem Vietnam, this has changed completely as people choose their own marriage-partners
based on love, and in consideration primarily to their own needs and wants. Moreover early
marriage is quite illegal.
The traditional Vietnamese wedding is one of the most important of traditional Vietnamese
occasions. Regardless of westernization, many of the age-old customs practiced in a traditional
Vietnamese wedding continue to be celebrated by both Vietnamese in Vietnam and overseas, often
combining both western and eastern elements. Besides the wedding ceremony, there is also an
engagement ceremony which takes place usually half a year or so before the wedding. Due to the
spiritual nature of the occasion, the date and time of the marriage ceremony are decided in advance
by a fortune teller. The traditional Vietnamese wedding consists of an extensive array of
ceremonies: the first is the ceremony to ask permission to receive the bride, the second is the
procession to receive the bride (along with the ancestor ceremony at her house), the third is to bring
the bride to the groom's house for another ancestor ceremony and to welcome her into the family,
then the last is a wedding banquet. The number of guests in attendance at these banquets is huge,
usually in the hundreds. Several special dishes are served. Guests are expected to bring gifts, often
money, which the groom and bride at one point in the banquet will go from table to table collecting.

The status of women in Japan is complex and cannot be characterized in simple terms. Slowly,
there are a growing number of professional women and professional women's associations. More
women continue to work after getting married and having children. However, many companies have
separate programmes for women, usually non-career development, and follow practices that would
be considered discriminatory in other societies. For a typical couple, the female spouse is still
generally expected to do all of the cleaning, cooking, and other chores, whether she is working or
not. Single women are said to be enjoying their lives, spending much money on travel abroad and
shopping. Housewives are active in networking themselves for various objectives, for example
volunteer activities, community services, recycling activities, study groups, and many others. The
traditional Japanese value of “good wife, good mother’ is changing.
Unlike other countries where a couple is the usual social unit, in Japan it is typical for only the
husband to be invited to business gatherings or to weddings for company employees. Exceptions are
frequently made for foreign visitors depending on the occasion, but wives should not take their
exclusion (sự loài trừ, sự bỏ ngoài cuộc) as a personal insult (sự lăng mạ-in’sănt/. (các bà nội trợ
ko nên xem việc họ bỏ mình ra ngồi cuộc chơi như là sự lăng mạ với cá nhân )

Tawakkol Karman was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2011 in recognition of her work in
non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women’s rights to full participation in Yemen.
Tawakkol was born in 1979 in Taiz, Yemen’s third largest city. She studied a degree in
Commerce from the University of Science and Technology in Sana’a before completing another
degree in Political Science from the University of Sana’a.
Growing up in a country with political uncertainty, Tawakkol witnessed the
unification of North and South Yemen in 1990, followed by a civil war in 1994
in which the North gained victory over the South.
As a journalist and human rights activist, Tawakkol responded to the
political instability and human rights abuses in Yemen by organizing others and
reporting injustices. In 2005, she founded the organization Women Journalists
Without Chains (chuỗi hạt, dậy xích, xiềng xích) (WJWC) which supports rights
and freedoms and provides media skills to journalists. In addition, the
organization releases regular reports in human rights abuses in Yemen,
recording more than 50 cases of attacks and unfair sentences against
newspapers and writers so far.
In 2007, Tawakkol began organizing weekly protests in Yemen’s capital, Sana’a, aiming at
calling for inquiries (cuộc điều tra, thẩm vấn) into social and legal injustice (sự thiếu công
bằng-/in’dzătik-). Tawakkol’s weekly protests continued until 2011 when she redirected protesters
(người kháng nghị- người phản đối) to support the Arab Spring. Tawakkol even brought Yemen’s
revolution to New York speaking directly with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon and organizing
public meetings at the UN headquarters.
Brave and outspoken (thẳng thắn, trực tính), Tawakkol has been imprisoned on a number of
occasions for her opposition movement for human rights. She is known as “Mother of the
Revolution”, and “The Iron Woman”.
Since receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, she has continued to support female journalists and
encouraged people in Yemen to ask for social justice and human rights. Fiercely (dữ dội, mãnh liệt)
committed (tận tụy,) to change, Tawakkol spends the majority of her time in a tent in Change
Square, where she continues her peaceful protest /prơtest- sự phảnđối, phản kháng) for justice and
freedom.

36. By establishing WJWC, Tawakkol would like
.
A. to oppose to the victory of the government from the North
B. to support rights and freedom and provide media skill to journalists
C. to start the non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women’s rights
D. to report the unification of North and South Yemen and the civil war
37. The organization WJWC produces regular reports on
.
A. bad sentences in newspaper articles issued in Yemen
B. weekly protests in Yemen’s capital and the government’s repression
C. violent and unfair treatments against humans especially journalists
D. organizing public meetings at the United Nations headquarter
38. The purpose of weekly protests in Yemen’s capital led by Tawakkol from 2007 to 2011 was
.
A. to ask to make speeches at the United Nations headquarters

C. to get many women free from prisons on a number of occasions
D. to oppose to social and legal injustice and wrongdoings from the government
