READING:
I. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer
Jean spent her first few years in Hooper and her family moved to Otsego early in her life. She was only ten when
her father died unexpectedly, leaving her mother to raise and support their family alone. Her mother soon went to
work outside the home to provide for the family, and Jean, being one of the oldest, had to help care for her
younger siblings. Although she had much responsibility at home, Jean thoroughly enjoyed school and was an
excellent student. She went on to graduate 10th in her class at Otsego High School in 1953.
While still in high school, Jean met a young man named Charles "Chuck" Holly, at a dance in Alamo; and they
were quite taken with each other. Over the next few years, their love for each other blossomed and they were
married on February 24, 1953, while Jean was still in school. At the time, Chuck was serving his country in the
military, and had come home on leave to marry his sweetheart. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, he was sent
overseas to serve in Korea for the next fifteen months.
Upon his discharge, the couple settled into married life together in the Plainwell, Otsego area. To help make ends

meet, Jean went to work at the collection bureau in Kalamazoo for a while, before taking a job at the cheese
company in Otsego. In 1964, Chuck and Jean were overjoyed with the birth of their son, Chuck, who brought
great joy into their lives. Jean remembered how her mother was always gone so much working after her father
died and she did not want that for her son, so she left her job to devote herself to the role of a mother.

b. She worked outside the home before she had a child.

d. She quit her job to look after her baby.
II. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Every family has its quirks. Mine is no different. I was born in an Italian- American family in 1973. We follow the
classic stereotype. My father works and my mother stays home with the kids. There are certain things that we
remember from our childhood: phrases, jokes, movies. But one piece of advice that sticks with me from an early
age comes from my mother.
"Don't finish your food or you will never get married." It was an illogical jump from the idea that a "lady" is not a

glutton and therefore will not finish the food on her plate or take the last cookie off of the platter. A "lady"
especially a young lady must never appear hungry. If she did, she would not be an ideal candidate for a wife.
To this day, I do not finish what is on my plate and I will never eat the last of anything.
It is not a conscience thing. When 1 think about it, 1 make a point to finish the food on my plate, there is still some
teenage rebellion against mom in this thirty-four year-old body, but the thought of not finishing is so ingrained
that I rarely think about it.
When my husband and I are at dinner, he will gesture to something on the table and say, "Finish your food" and 1
will respond, "I can't, I'll never get married." That always makes him laugh and say, "So what have these last six
years been?" But for me it is something special that I will carry around with me - something that is my family. My
brother remembers the phrase and he admits that in his dating days he did watch to see if any of the girls would
take the last piece of pie or pizza. I think he fell in love with his fiancé because she would eat whatever she wanted
to and do not worry about anyone judging her for it. As I embark on starting my own family, I wonder what I will
tell my daughter. Will I encourage her to finish every last piece? Or will I continue to the legacy of my mother and
tell her not eat the last piece lest she not get married? Will she one day laugh to her girlfriends about her mother
leaving one granola bar, one piece of cheese, or one rice cake alone in their bags?

IV. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
I was born to dance. I've been dancing all my life, ever since my mother, who gave up a dancing career on the
stage when she married my father, picked me up and twirled me around as an infant. As much as I loved dancing
with her, her greatest gift to me was her "unconditional love" during her lifetime.
My parents divorced after only 5 years of marriage, but my father remarried a lovely lady who also loved to dance.
They used to take me to a dancing club where I would listen to the music and watch them dance-occasionally my
stepmother, Mary, invited me to dance I also met my wife, Charlotte, in a dancing party. I danced with her for
about 15 minutes, and during that brief span, I realized that I fell in love with her. We kept dancing throughout our
marriage. My earliest memories of dancing with my daughters started when I came home from work to our small
home in Marblehead, Massachusetts, and my daughter Laura was about 3 years old. It was very relaxing for me. to
turn on the record player, pick up Laura in my arms, and dance her around the room!
Our family danced a lot. My daughters, Laura and Anne, and I continued to dance on every occasion. One favorite
memory I have of dancing with Laura and Anne was when I took each of them when they were seniors in high
school to the Daddy-Daughter dance. We won both dance competitions!
As their father, I have tried to provide my daughters with unconditional love, as my Mother provided to me,
endless emotional and loving support, and good educations and life experiences which have helped prepare them
for happy and successful adult lives. Being a father who is worthy of their love and respect, I consider fatherhood
a privilege, not an entitlement.
In 1994, my oldest daughter Laura gave me a lovely book, which I still have, entitled "Fathers and Daughters." My
Father's Day suggestion to every father is to dance with your daughters at every opportunity. It will not only bring
you closer, it will give them memories of you “to hang onto" long after we are gone.

V. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also. They find a
person with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears. In marriage we are looking
for a partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes.
If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs,
movies, jokes, books and life in general. They basically have the same roots. In the case of a western man and
foreign woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from
both spouses. On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other's country,
culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting. On the other hand it can be very disappointing if
there is the inability to understand your partner's excitements and frustrations. For example, you are watching the
television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up
with. Maybe this artist was an idol for your parents and the music of this artist was often played in your house
when you were a child. Unfortunately you realize that your wife is unable to understand your feelings because she
has no idea who this artist is. Her eyes are absolutely empty because she has never even heard the song before.
You feel rather disappointed! Remember that your wife has the same situation with you. You do not know her
country's songs, her country's famous actors, her books. She has her own memories and in actuality, for her,
everything is much more difficult than it is for you. At least, you live in your own country where everybody can

understand you. She lives in completely strange surroundings, where she has nobody to share her feelings with,
except you.
Do some research and learn about your wife's country, culture and lifestyles. Talk with her, ask her questions, get
to know what songs she likes, what movies and books are of interest to her. The Internet will give you a great
opportunity to find anything! Tell her about your country's culture, let her listen to the music that you like, rent a
movie for her that left you with great impression. Let her understand you better through the things that you like.
Patience and time will help you to fight cultural differences.

VIII. 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 modern 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.

X. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Communication in general is process of sending and receiving messages that enables humans to share knowledge,
attitudes, and skills. Although we usually identify communication with speech, communication is composed of
two dimensions - verbal and nonverbal.
Nonverbal communication has been defined as communication without words. It includes apparent behaviors such
as facial expressions, eyes, touching, tone of voice, as well as less obvious messages such as dress, posture and
spatial distance between two or more people.
Activity or inactivity, words or silence all have message value: they influence others and these others, in turn,
respond to these communications and thus they are communicating.
Commonly, nonverbal communication is learned shortly after birth and practiced and refined throughout a
person's lifetime. Children first learn nonverbal expressions by watching and imitating, much as they learn verbal
skills.
Young children know far more than they can verbalize and are generally more adept at reading nonverbal cues
than adults are because of their limited verbal skills and their recent reliance on the nonverbal to communicate. As

children develop verbal skills, nonverbal channels of communication do' not cease to exist although become
entwined in the total communication process.
1. According to the writer, ________.
a. Nonverbal language is only used by the deaf and the mute.
b. One cannot communicate in both verbal and .nonverbal language.
c. Those who can listen and talk should not use nonverbal language.
d. People communicate with both verbal and nonverbal language.
2. Which is not included in nonverbal communication?
a. words b. spatial distance c. facial expressions d. tone of voice
3. We can learn from the text that ________.
a. nonverbal can never get any responses
b. most people do not like nonverbal communication
c. even silence has message value
d. touching is not accepted in communicating
4. Human beings ________.
a. have learnt how to communicate in nonverbal language through books
b. can communicate in nonverbal language only when they are mature
c. have learnt how to communicate in nonverbal language since a child
d. communicate in nonverbal language much less than they do in verbal language
5. The word reading has a close meaning to ________.
a. looking at the words that are written b. understanding
c. saying something aloud d. expressing
XIRead the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Movements and gestures by the hands, arms, legs, and other parts' of the body and face are the most pervasive
types of nonverbal messages and the most difficult to control. 'It is estimated that there are over 200.000 physical
signs capable of stimulating meaning in another person. For example, there are 23 distinct eyebrow movements,
each capable of stimulating a different meaning.
Humans express attitudes toward themselves and vividly through body movements and postures. Body movements
express true messages about feelings that cannot be masked. Because such avenues of communication are visual,
they travel much farther than spoken words and are unaffected by the presence of noise that interrupt, or cancels

out speech.
People communicate by the way they walk, stand, and sit. We tend to be more relaxed with friends or when
addressing those of lower status. Body orientation also indicates status or liking of the other individual. More
direct orientation is related to a more positive attitude.
Body movements and postures alone have no exact meaning, but they can greatly support or reject the spoken
word. If these two means of communication are dichotomized and contradict each other, some result will be a
disordered image and most often the nonverbal will dominate.
