"The economic history of the United States", one scholar has written, "is the history of the rise and
development of the capitalistic system". The colonists of the eighteenth century pushed forward what those
of the seventeenth century have begun: the expansion and elaboration of an economy born in the great age

of capitalist expansion.
3
Tuyển tập 100 đề thi thử TN và LTĐH môn Tiếng Anh năm 2015 (có keys)
Our excellent natural resources paved the way for the development of abundant capital to increase our
growth. Capital includes the tools – such as: machines, vehicles, and buildings – that makes the outputs of
labor and resources more valuable. But it also includes the funds necessary to buy those tools. If a society
had to consume everything it produced just to stay alive, nothing could be put aside to increase future
productions. But if a farmer can grow more corn than his family needs to eat, he can use the surplus as seed
to increase the next crop, or to feed workers who build tractors. This process of capital accumulation was
aided in the American economy by our cultural heritage. Saving played an important role in the European
tradition. It contributed to American’s motivation to put something aside today for the tools to buy
tomorrow.
The great bulk of the accumulated wealth of America, as distinguished from what was consumed, was
derived either directly or indirectly from trade. Though some manufacturing existed, its role in the
accumulation of capital was negligible. A merchant class of opulent proportions was already visible in the
seaboard cities, its wealth as the obvious consequence of shrewd and resourceful management of the
carrying trade. Even the rich planters of tidewater Virginia and the rice coast of South Carolina finally
depended for their genteel way of life upon the ships and merchants who sold their tobacco and rice in the
markets of Europe. As colonial production rose and trade expanded, a business community emerged in the
colonies, linking the provinces by lines of trade and identity of interest.

A. money B. resource C. labour D. capital
Question 55: According to the passage, which of the following would lead to accumulating capital?

C. Consuming what is produced D. Planting more of a crop than what is
needed

Part VII: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the following question from 61 to 70.
Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs also
contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in fact,
contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has driven
egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several
alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs. These egg substitutes are not
4
Tuyển tập 100 đề thi thử TN và LTĐH môn Tiếng Anh năm 2015 (có keys)
really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having
low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One disadvantage, however, is that they
are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg,
sometimes called ‘designer’ eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-flat diets consisting of
ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of their diet, however, these hens produce eggs
that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of the these eggs claim that

eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to
back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels
have brought mixed result. It may be that it is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of
cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived
from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body’s
production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one’s intake of eggs, even
designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood
cholesterol level.
Question 61: What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary at increases the blood cholesterol level
B. To make people know about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten
D. To convince people to eat ‘designer’ eggs and egg substitutes.
Question 62: According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart diseases?
A. minerals B. cholesterol C. canola oil D. vitamins
Question 63: What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. increasing price B. decreased production C. dietary changes in hens D. concerns about
cholesterol
Question 64: What is meant by the phrase ‘mixed result’?
A. The result are blended B. The result are a composite of things
C. The result are inconclusive D. The result are mingled together
Question 65: According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol?
A. reducing egg intake but not fat intake B. increasing egg intake and fat intake
C. decreasing egg intake and fat intake D. increasing egg intake but not fat intake
Question 66: Which of the following could best replace the word ‘somewhat’?
A. in fact B. a little C. indefinitely D. a lot
Question 67: According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested
daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol? A. 3/4 B. 2/3 C. 1/2 D.
1/3

Question 68: The word ‘portrayed’ could best be replaced by which of the following?
A. studied B. destroyed C. tested D. described
Question 69: What is the meaning of ‘back up’?
A. reverse B. advance C. block D. support

of eggs EXCEPT? A. boiled B. poached C. scrambled D. fried

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural
environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting from nature's provision is the oldest
known subsistence strategy and has been practised for at least the last two million years. It was, indeed, the
only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced
about 10,000 years ago.
Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their numbers

have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts and arctic
wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant life.
Such conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and
waterways. The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has
provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environmental differences have
restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies.
Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know from the
observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting and
gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party
harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp. When the food in the area has become
exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration patterns
evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes. These patterns of
behavior may be similar to those practised by mankind during the Paleolithic Period.
Question 41. A typical feature of both modern and prehistoric hunter-gatherers is that ____________.
A. they don't have a healthy and balanced diet B. they live in the forests for all their life
C. they don't have a strong sense of community D. they often change their living places
Question 42. The word "marginal" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ____________.
A. suburban B. disadvantaged C. forgotten D. abandoned
Question 43. According to the passage, studies of contemporary subsistence societies can provide a
_________.
A. deeper insight into the dry-land farming B. further understanding of modern subsistence
societies
C. broader vision of prehistoric natural environments D. further understanding

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct

Basic to any understanding of Canada in the 20 years after the Second World War is the country's
impressive population growth. For every three Canadians in 1945, there were over five in 1966. In
September 1966, Canada's population passed the 20 million mark. Most of this surging growth came from
natural increase. The depression of the 1930s and the war had held back marriages, and the catching-up
process began after 1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the1950s, producing a
population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956. This rate of increase had
been exceeded only once before in Canada's history, in the decade before 1911 when the prairies were being
settled. Undoubtedly, the good economic conditions of the 1950s supported a growth in the population, but
the expansion also derived from a trend toward earlier marriages and an increase in the average size of
families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood at 28 per thousand, one of the highest in the world.
After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued falling until in
1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline reflected the low level of births during the
depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society. Young people were staying
at school longer; more women were working; young married couples were buying automobiles or houses
before starting families; rising living standards were cutting down the size of families.
It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that
had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution. Although the growth
in Canada's population had slowed down by 1966 (the increase in the first half of the 1960's was only nine
percent), another large population wave was coming over the horizon. It would be composed of the children
who were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to 1957.
Question 66. The phrase "prior to" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to __________________.
A. during B. behind C. before D. since
Question 67. When was the birth rate in Canada at its lowest postwar level?
A. 1957 B. 1966 C. 1951 D. 1956
Question 68. It can be inferred from the passage that before the Industrial Revolution
__________________.
A. population statistics were unreliable B. the population grew steadily
C. families were larger D. economic conditions were bad
Question 69. According to the passage, when did Canada's baby boom begin?
A. During the depression of the 1930s B. After 1945

C. In 1966 D. In the decade after 1911
Question 70. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Educational changes in Canadian society B. Canada during the Second World War
C. Population trends in postwar Canada D. Standards of living in Canada
Question 71. The author suggests that in Canada during the1950s __________________.
A. the urban population decreased rapidly B. economic conditions were poor
C. fewer people married D. the birth rate was very high
Question 72. The word "surging" is closest in meaning to __________________.

A. decades B. marriages C. years D. Canadians

In the very distant geological (địa chất) past all animals were aquatic. The very first vertebrates (có
xương sống), or animals with backbones, of which we have any fossil record, lived in the water. These
vertebrates, the fish, were adapted (thích nghi) to underwater living. Their streamlined bodies were covered
with scales to reduce surface friction (ma sát): they had muscular tails so that they could swim swiftly in
such a dense medium as water; and they were endowed with gills for breathing underwater.
Descendants (hậu duệ) of fish-type ancestors crossed the seashore barrier and accommodated
themselves to life on land. As amphibians, they possessed limbs instead of fins and lungs instead of gills.
But they never became completely free of the bonds that tied them to the water; even today many

amphibians return to the water to lay their eggs.
Millions of years after the first clumsy amphibians crawled over the land, newer types of land dwellers
appeared; these animals gave rise to the present-day reptiles and mammals. They were more completely
converted for land dwelling, with bodies and biological activities far different from those of fish. With these
special adaptations, mammals have been able to colonize the woods and meadows, the deserts and high
mountains, often far removed from the sea.
Câu 61: Of the animals with backbones, the first to appear were _________.
A. fish B. amphibians C. birds D. mammals
Câu 62: Fish are suited to underwater life because of their _________.
A. gills B. All of the answers C. streamlines shape D. scales

For a long time, amphibians were confused with reptiles. Like reptiles, they have three-
chambered hearts and are cold-blooded. Some amphibians, such as salamanders, are even
shaped like lizards. However, unlike reptiles, amphibians never have claws on their toes or
scales on their bodies. Furthermore, the eggs of amphibians lack shells, so they must be laid
in water or in moist places.
Amphibians were the first creatures to spend sizable amounts of their lives on land. The
larvae of most amphibians, such as frog tadpoles, are born with gills and live in water.
However, their gills disappear as they develop lungs. Most retain the ability to breathe
through the moist surface of their skin. This comes in handy when they hibernate in the
bottom mud of lakes and ponds during the coldest months. They take in the small amount of
oxygen they need through their skin. Some amphibians undergo what is known as a "double
metamorphosis", changing not only from gill breathers to lung breathers but also from
vegetarians to insectivores.

Although the amphibian class is rather small in number of species, it shows great
diversity. There are three major types. The caecilians of the tropics are long, legless,
burrowing creatures. Caudate amphibians, such as newts and salamanders, mostly have long
tails and stubby legs. Salientians, which include both frogs and toads, are tailless as adults
and have powerful hind legs. Toads differ from frogs primarily in that they have dry, warty
skin.
Câu 31: The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to _____.
20

Galaxies are not evenly distributed throughout the universe. A few are found alone, but
almost all are grouped in formations termed galactic clusters. These formations should not
be confused with stellar clusters, globular clusters of stars that exist within a galaxy. The
size of galactic clusters varies enormously, with some clusters containing only a dozen or so
members and others containing as many as 10,000. Moreover, galactic clusters themselves
are part of larger clusters of clusters, termed superclusters. It is surmised that even clusters

of superclusters are possible.
Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is part of a galactic cluster called the Local Group, which has
twenty members and is typical in terms of the types of galaxies it contains. There are three
large spiral galaxies: Andromeda, the largest galaxy in the group; the Milky Way, the
second-largest galaxy; and the Trianglum Spiral, the third largest. There are also four
medium-sized spiral galaxies, including the Large Cloud of Magellan and the Small Cloud
of Magellan. There are four regular elliptical galaxies; the remainders are dwarf ellipticals.
Other than our own galaxy, only Andromeda and the Clouds of Magellan can be seen with
the naked eye, and the Clouds are visible only from the Southern Hemisphere.

In the vicinity of the Local Group are several clusters, each containing around twelve
members. The nearest cluster rich in members is the Virgo Cluster, which contains
thousands of galaxies of all types. Like most large clusters, it emits X-rays. The Local
Group, the small neighboring clusters, and the Virgo Cluster form part of a much larger
cluster of clusters – the Local Supercluster.
The existence of galactic clusters presented a riddle to scientists for many years – the
“missing mass” problem. Clusters are presumably held together by the gravity generated by
their members. However, measurements showed that the galaxies did not have enough mass
to explain their apparent stability. Why didn’t these clusters disintegrate? It is now thought
that galaxies contain great amounts of “dark matter”, which cannot be directly observed
but which generates gravitational pull.
This matter includes gas, dust, burnt-out stars, and even black holes.

A. immense B. spherical C. dense D. brilliant
Câu 73: The author would probably characterize the existence of clusters of superclusters

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to
each of the following questions from 01 to 10.
The Fukushima I nuclear accidents are a series of ongoing equipment failures and releases of radioactive
materials at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant, following the 9.0 magnitude Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on
11 March 2011. The plant comprises six separate boiling water reactors maintained by the Tokyo Electric Power
Company (TEPCO). This accident is the largest of the 2011 Japanese nuclear accidents arising from the Tōhoku
earthquake and tsunami, and experts consider it to be the second largest nuclear accident after the Chernobyl
disaster, but more complex as all reactors are involved.
At the time of the quake, reactor 4 had been de-fueled while 5 and 6 were in cold shutdown for planned
maintenance. The remaining reactors shut down automatically after the earthquake, with emergency generators
starting up to run the control electronics and water pumps needed to cool reactors. The plant was protected by a
seawall designed to withstand a 5.7 metres (19 ft) tsunami but not the 14-metre (46 ft) maximum wave which
arrived 41–60 minutes after the earthquake. The entire plant was flooded, including low-lying generators and
electrical switchgear in reactor basements and external pumps for supplying cooling seawater. The connection to
the electrical grid was broken. All power for cooling was lost and reactors started to overheat, due to natural decay
of the fission products created before shutdown. The flooding and earthquake damage hindered external assistance.

Evidence soon arose of partial core meltdown in reactors 1, 2, and 3; hydrogen explosions destroyed the
upper cladding of the buildings housing reactors 1, 3, and 4; an explosion damaged the containment inside reactor
2; multiple fires broke out at reactor 4. Despite being initially shutdown, reactors 5 and 6 began to overheat. Fuel
rods stored in pools in each reactor building began to overheat as water levels in the pools dropped. Fears of
