Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10, the Apollo 11 astronauts made their historic landing on the surface of the Moon. This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study; from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon, scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.

The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon. The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil. Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.

</div>Trang 4<div class="page_container" data-page="4">

In addition to the Moon soil, astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon: basalt and breccia. Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the Earth. Since basalt is formed under

extremely high temperatures, the presence of this type of rock is an indication that the temperature of the Moon

was once extremely hot. Breccia, the other kind of rock brought back by the astronauts, was formed during the impact of falling objects on the surface of the Moon. This second type of rock consists of small pieces of rock compressed together by the force of impact. Gases such as hydrogen and helium were found in some of the rocks, and scientists believe that these gases were carried to the Moon by the solar wind, the streams of gases

that are constantly emitted by the Sun.

Question 30: According to the passage, what does Moon soil consist of?

C. Tiny pieces of stones and glass. D. Streams of gases.

Question 31: The phrase “this type of rock” in paragraph 3 refers to____________.

Question 32: According to the passage, breccia was formed____________. A. when objects struck the Moon

B. from volcanic lava

C. when streams of gases hit the surface of the Moon D. from the interaction of helium and hydrogen

Question 33: The word “emitted” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to____________.

Question 34: Which of the following would serve as the best title of the passage?

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

Think for a moment about the last music album you bought. Most likely, you'll think of the singer or band that made you want to buy the album. You might even know the name of the guitar player or the drummer. Those talented performers, however, are only some of the people involved in making the music you enjoy. The

majority of people in the music industry work behind the scenes, but the roles they play in the musical process

are very important.

Songs begin with the songwriter, of course. Some songwriters work alone, but many work in teams that

combine the talents of a lyricist, who writes the words to songs, and an instrumentalist, often a piano player or

guitarist, who writes the music. Many of today's pop stars work with songwriters. For example, some of Lady Gaga's biggest hits were written by Nadir Khayat, also known as "RedOne." Some songwriting teams have

</div>Trang 5<div class="page_container" data-page="5">

become very famous, such as Mike Stock, Matt Aitken and Pete Waterman, who were responsible for many big 80s pop hits.

After a song has been written, music arrangers make it more appealing by deciding which instruments will be used, what tempo, or speed, the song will have, and whether the song should have a lower or higher pitch. A

good arrangement can bring a song to life and make it a classic.

Not every singer or instrumentalist can be a star, and many work in the background as studio musicians. These artists are not a part of any one musical group. Instead, they are hired for recording sessions that eventually become the albums you buy, as well as soundtracks for television shows, movies, and radio ads.

Recording engineers also play a major role in creating the final sound that you hear. First, these engineers set up the recording studio, the room where the performers play, placing musicians and microphones in exactly the right places to get the best sound. Next, they use electronic equipment, such as multitrack recorders, to capture the music. Finally, long after the musicians have gone home, recording engineers use a mixing board to balance the melodies and rhythms of each musician, and sometimes to incorporate special sound effects or additional tracks.

Many people make a living with music. You may not recognize all of their names, but all of them work together to create the songs you love to listen to.
