PART C: READING (2p)
Question 1: Read the passage then answer the questions below. (From 31 to 35: 1p)
I was born in England and English is my mother tongue. Besides, I can speak French and
Spanish. I studied these two languages when I was at high school. Now, I am still learning Spanish
at the University. As for me, mastering a foreign language is not easy. After studying a language,
practice is very necessary and useful. Travelling to the country where the target language is spoken
is very helpful, but if you can not speak the language well enough you will certainly have troubles.
I also frequently go to the movies, watch television, and listen to the radio in the language I am
trying to learn. Reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I personally think
newspapers and magazines are better. However, getting some knowledge of the language is the
most important thing. Grammar and vocabulary should be mastered first.
* Answer the questions:
31. How many foreign languages can the writer speak?

32. When did the writer study French and Spanish?

33. Is practice necessary and useful after studying a language?

34. When we travel to a country, what will happens if we can not speak the language of that
country?

35. According to the writer, what should be mastered first?

Question 2: Read the passage then decide whether the statements below are True (T) or False
(F). (From 36 to 40: 1p)
Air pollution is a serious problem in many cities. Motor vehicles, factories and other
sources create so much air pollution that it may hang in the air like dirty fog. Air pollution
threatens the health of the people who live in cities. City wastes cause water pollution when they
are poured into the waterways. These wastes kill fish and make some areas unfit for swimming. In
addition, many large cities have difficulties in disposing of their garbage. The amount of garbage
grows each year, but places to put it are quickly filling up. Citizens, governments, industries,
scientists, and business people must work together in different ways to gradually reduce pollution.
For example, most cities have introduced recycling programs.
