READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage 1 and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions
Life expectancy is the period of time that a person can expect to live. Life expectancy
varies greatly between genders and cultures. It used to be that women had a lower life expectancy than
men (1 in every 4 women died in childbirth), but now they live an average of four to five years longer than
men. Life expectancy has been increasing rapidly over the last centuries. With the advent of such modern
miracles as sewers, medicine and a greater understanding of how diseases are spread, our life expectancy
has increased by 25-30 years.
In developing countries like Swaziland, where there is a high HIV/ AIDS rate, life expectancy is as
low as 32.6 years. In developed countries like Australia, life expectancy rates are as high as 81 years.
There are an increasing number of factors which can cancel out the disadvantages you have. The one that

we are looking at now is how your career can affect your life expectancy. Choosing the wrong career can
result in a shorter life!
If you want your career to positively influence your life expectancy, you have to be made
of money. That's right. Rich people in wealthy areas of England and France live 10 years longer than the
people in poorer areas. Having a successful career has its drawbacks, too if the result of hard work is
stress.
Stress can lead to a number of psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, fatigue, tension
and aggression. These conditions may result in a lack of concentration and an increase in serious injuries
at work. They can also lead to high blood pressure and heart attacks which seriously affect life
expectancy.
If you are worried that your job might decrease your life expectancy, you probably need to avoid
careers on "dangerous jobs" list such as timber cutters, pilots, construction workers, roofer, truck drivers.
So if you don't want to kick the bucket at an early age, choose a career in something other than
timber cutting, but above all, remember to relax.

Health Benefits of Yoga
Yoga is a healthy lifestyle. One of the benefits of yoga is that you can choose a yoga style that is
suitable for your lifestyle, such as hot yoga, power yoga, relaxation yoga, etc. If you are a yoga beginner,
Hatha Yoga, which focuses on basic postures at a comfortable pace, would be great for you. If you want to
increase strength through using more of your own body's resistance, Power Yoga may be right for you.
Whether you prefer you're at home, in a private session, watching a DVD or at a studio or gym, there are a
huge variety of options available to suit your goals and needs. Improved flexibility is one of the first and
most obvious benefits of yoga. During your first class, you probably won't be able to touch your toes. But
if you stick with it, you'll notice a gradual loosening, and eventually, seemingly impossible poses will
become possible. Each of the yoga poses is built to reinforce the muscles around the spine, the very center
of your body, which is the core from which everything else operates.  
When the core is working properly, posture is improved, thus alleviating back, shoulder, and neck
pain. Strong muscles do more than look good. They also protect us from conditions like arthritis and back
pain, and help prevent falls in elderly people. And when you build strength through yoga, you balance it


with flexibility. If you just went to the gym and lifted weights, you might build strength at the expense of
flexibility. Yoga gets your blood flowing. More specifically, the relaxation exercises you learn in yoga can
help your circulation, especially in your hands and feet. Yoga also gets more oxygen to your cells, which

function better as a result. Twisting poses are thought to wring out venous blood from  internal organs and
allow oxygenated blood to flow in once the twist is released. Many studies found that a consistent yoga
practice improved depression and led to greater levels of happiness and better immune function.

Read the following passage 3 and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions
In 1960, Americans spent 10% of their healthcare dollar on medicines. Most of the money came
from their own pockets, and was spent on drugs that largely treated infections heart disease, arthritis and
depression. Beyond that, there was little that science could offer. Today, the range of diseases for which

medical research has some partial treatment is vast. Despite this, and the double digit increase in drug
spending - 75%-90% of which is paid for by insurance companies - prescription drugs now account for
9% of total health expenditures.
Similarly, claims by insurers and corporations - that drug costs are driving insurance costs up in
general - are overstated. According to health analyst J.D. Kleinke, since pharmacy costs represent only 9%
of all spending, even increases of 20% could not be responsible for insurance premium increases of 10%15% over the last two years: Premiums have been increasing far out of proportion to increasing total
medical costs over the past three years.
The fact is we should spend more on newer, more expensive medicines because they are worth the
investment. Medical innovation creates what Harvard economist David Cutler calls health capital — the
ability of people to stay well early and consistently throughout their lives, and remain that way at an
increasingly older age. In fact, under the most conservative assumption, the U.S would have needed only
about 30% of the improvement in medical progress over the period in time. In the case of congestive heart
failure, Mr. Cutler found that increased consumption of new and more expensive drugs and other
innovative technologies generated longer life, more productivity and lower health costs that offset the cost
of their development and consumption.
1. What has changed the least since 1960?
        A. Percentage of money Americans pay for medicines out of their own pockets.
        B. The variety of drugs available.
        C. Percentage of healthcare dollar on medicines.

(lưu đoạn 1, câu “In 1960, Americans spent 10% of their healthcare dollar on medicines...
prescription drugs now account for 9% of total health expenditures.)
2. Claims by insurers and corporations that drug costs are driving insurance costs are overstated because
____.
        A. drug costs have not increased in the past
        B. insurance costs have not increased in the past
        C. premiums have increased by more than 20% in the last two years
        D. premiums have increased much more than have total medical costs in the past three years

(lưu ý đoạn 2, câu "Premiums have been increasing far out of proportion to increasing total medical
costs over the past three years.")
3. The way to invest in health capital is to ____.
        A. adopt a healthy lifestyle
        B. spend around 10% of the healthcare money on medicines
        C. spend money on medicines that the latest medical science can offer
        D. spend more money on medical care in spite of higher health costs
(lưu ý đoạn 2, câu "The fact is we should spend more on newer, more expensive medicines because
they are worth the investment.")
4. The cost of congestive heart failure illustrates that ____.
        A. health capital is no guarantee for a better life
        B. using newer drugs may prove too expensive for many people
        C. using newer drugs contributes to a better life
        D. it is difficult to make people spend more on medicines
(lưu ý đoạn 2, câu "increased consumption of new and more expensive drugs and other innovative
technologies generated longer life, more productivity and lower health costs")
5. The main idea of the passage is that ____.
        A. people should spend more money on good medicines
        B. people should get insurers to pay for their medicines
        C. people are reluctant to pay a lot of money on medicines
        D. medical technologies make most diseases curable
