Although most families in the United States enjoy a high living standard, many American women
have
to work (26)

at home and in their offices. Despite their husbands' (27)

of the
housework,

of the housekeeping tasks. In single-parent families, the mothers may
not
have (29)

children to take care of, but they have to (30)

their families alone and have to
provide
for all the (31)

money. Therefore, the (32)

Like schools in Britain and other English speaking countries, those in the U.S have also always
stressed
"character" or "social"
sk

i

l

l
s through extracurricular activities, including organised sports. Because
most
schools start at around 8 o'clock every morning and classes often do not finish until 3 or 4 o'clock in
the
afternoon, such activities mean that many students do not return home until the early evening. There
is
usually a very broad range of extracurricular activities available. Most schools, for instance, publish
their
own student newspapers, and some have their own radio stations. Almost all have student orchestras,
bands,
and
choirs.
Many different sports are also available and most schools share their facilities - swimming pools,
tennis
courts, tracks, and stadiums - with the public. Often the students themselves organize and support
school
activities and raise money through car washes, baby-sitting, or by mowing lawns. Parents and local
business
often also help a group that, for example, has a chance to go to a state music competition, to compete
in
some sports championship, or take a camping trip. Such activities not only give pupils a chance to
be
together outside of normal classes, they also help develop a feeling of "school spirit" among the students
and
in the

community.

asked and of what she wanted to ask. When the day came, she arrived half an hour early. There were
six
other people waiting to be interviewed. They looked much more confident than her. She began to feel
even
more nervous. One by one, the others were called. Each of them came out looking satisfied. Susan was
the
last one to be called into the interview room. She had decided by then that she had no chance of getting
the
job, so she felt relaxed as she walked in; she felt that she had nothing to lose. The three interviewers were

all
very serious and they didn't seem to be interested in her. She forgot all the answers she had prepared and
said
the first things that came into her head. Afterwards she was sure she wouldn't get the job, but two days

Most people work to earn a living, and produce goods and services. Goods are (31)


agricultural
(like maize and milk) or manufactured (like cars and paper). Services are such things (32)


education,
medicine, and commerce. Some people provide products. An example can be a man who produces
goods
such as rice. Some provide services. In a hotel, services can range from cleaning, washing to arranging
tours
within and outside the city where (33)

. Other people provide both goods and services. For
example,
in the same garage a man may buy a car or some service which helps him to maintain his
car.
The work people do is called economic activity. All economic activities together make up the
economic
system of a town, a city, a country, or the world. Such an economic system is the sum (34)

and
what
they want. The work people undertake provides either what they need or provides the money with

buy
commodities and services which are non-essential but which provide some particular personal
satisfaction,
like toys for children, visits to the cinema, and
books.

QUESTIONS 36 - 40: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow
by
circling letter A, B, C or D as the correct answers and then mark your choice on the answer
sheet.
A greenhouse is a building whose sides and roof are made of glass so that the temperature inside
is
magnified. And it's used to grow plants that need high temperatures. This is to illustrate an example of
how
man could be causing changes to the climate. These changes result from increasing the carbon dioxide
levels
in the atmosphere, thus raising the surface temperature of the Earth. And this is known as the

"Greenhouse
Effect."
C0
2
is a normal component of the atmosphere and until recently has not been considered an
air
pollutant. But average global C0
2
concentrations have been increasing since 1860, with particularly
sharp
increase in 1958. The main reason for this continuous increase in C0
2
build-up is the burning of fossil
fuels.
During the past 100 years, the C0
2
content of the atmosphere has already risen by about 15% - from
about
290 to about 340 parts per million. And it's still
rising.
Although the C0
2
content of the atmosphere is only about 0.032%, it's a major factor in
determining
average global temperature. Incoming sunlight consists of many wavelengths including some very
dangerous
ones. But ozone in the upper atmosphere and water vapor and C0
2
in the lower atmosphere filter out
or

destroy most of the harmful wavelengths, so what reaches the Earth is mostly visible light. It's absorbed
by
land, sea and cloud and is reradiated in the atmosphere as longer wavelength infrared radiation, or heat,
as
the Earth cools. Much of this infrared radiation is absorbed by C0
2
. The C0
2
then radiates a portion of
the
absorbed heat energy back to the Earth to warm the atmosphere. Rather like the glass in a greenhouse or
a
car window on sunny day, C0
2
in the atmosphere acts as a one-way filter that allows visible light to enter
the
Nguyễn Thanh Tuấn – GV Tiếng Anh – THPT Tứ Kỳ - Tứ Kỳ - Hải Dương Page 7 of
40
Earth's atmosphere, but prevents longer wavelength heat radiation from leaving. Assuming that energy
is
arriving from the sun at a constant rate, then as the level of C0
2
increases, the average surface temperature
of
the earth should
rise.
36. What is the purpose of using a
greenhouse?
A. to give an example of atmospheric changes caused by
man

38. Why is C0
2
considered an air
pollutant?
A. C0
2
is a normal component of the
atmosphere
B. Global C0
2
concentrations have been
increasing

C. C0
2
is a by-product of the burning of fossil
fuels

QUESTIONS 36 - 40: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow

by
circling letter A, B, C or D as the correct answers and then mark your choice on the answer
sheet.
Why are there so many grandmothers and so few grandfathers? In other words, why do men die
younger
than women? Is it because men are afraid of getting old and helpless and so they prefer to die before
t

h a

t
happens? Perhaps they fear to be left alone by their women and so decide to do the leaving first.
Many
explanations are given for the fact that men die earlier than women. Men are stronger physically, yet
women
can hang on longer to life. Both men and women are emotional creatures but women are not afraid
or
ashamed to cry while men refuse to do so. They are afraid of being thought "soft". Some men, when they
are
upset, play loud music or dig in the garden to relieve their feelings. Many men like an orderly life so
that
they bury themselves in their work or want a wife with some children or long to take part in wars
where
there is a definite chain of command. There is a leader to give orders and a known enemy to fight
against
and defeat. All these make men feel they live in a rational
world.
So the majority of men like a rational world. Rationality is fine but it does not include everything
that
makes life joyful and fun or even messy and frustrating. When a man refuses to cry he is refusing to

accept
that his emotions are part of him. Of course some men do not follow this pattern. Bob Hawke is capable
of
crying in public whereas Margaret Thatcher is probably incapable of crying at any time. We need to
cry
Nguyễn Thanh Tuấn – GV Tiếng Anh – THPT Tứ Kỳ - Tứ Kỳ - Hải Dương Page 10 of

because that shows our ability to suffer. If we do not suffer we are not really alive at all. Suffering can
be
creative or destructive. If we can all learn to cry and laugh and shout and dance openly, we are
living
creatively and adding something to the human race. We often say men suffer more from stress and
therefore
they die earlier. Are we not saying in another way that they do not know how to suffer in the right way
-
with tears and laughter instead of silence - and so they are miserable and just give up? That is just my
theory
of course. Have you a better
one?
36. What does the word "th a t " (the underlined word) in the passage refer
to?
A. The fact that men die younger than

B. The fact that they fear to be left

helpless
D. The fact that they decide to do the leaving
first

women?
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph
4
39. What's the writer's opinion toward
crying?
A. It is a good thing for people to cry B. To be silent is better than to

C. It is all right for women to cry but shameful for men D. Tears are not real signs of
suffering

"Where is the university?" is a question that many visitors to Cambridge ask, but no one can give them
a
clear answer, for there is no wall to be found around the university. The university is the city. You can
find
the classroom buildings, libraries, museums and offices of the university all over the city. And most of
its
members are the students and teachers or professors of the thirty-one colleges. Cambridge was
already
developing town long before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago. It grew up by the
river
Granta, as the Cam was once called. A bridge was built over the river as early as
875.
In the fourteen and fifteen centuries more and more land was used for college buildings. The town
grew
much faster in the nineteen century after the opening of the railway in 1845. Cambridge became a city
in
1951 and now it has the population of over 100,000. Many young students want to study at
Cambridge.
Thousands of people from all over the world come to visit the university town. It has become a famous
place
all round the
world.

Cambridge?
A. To see the university B. To study in the colleges in

I am often asked whether we will do anything about the taxes we all have to pay. Of course,
what
people mean is that they don't want to pay so much. But, I have to ask in return which services they
would
like to lose. For we can not expect to have modem hospitals, well- kept roads, good schools or
attractive
parks if we are not prepared to pay for these things. Our children do not think that schools and colleges
are
only for the sons and daughters of the rich, as once they were. More and more of us are living longer
and
longer. We all feel that we should be able to see a doctor when we need to. Old people should not
suffer
because we are afraid of the doctor's bill. In our society, we are proud of the fact that no one is
asked
whether they can pay the bill before they are allowed into a hospital. But if we want to continue to
provide

for all the needs of our society, we must remember that nothing in life is free. My party does not promise
to
cut taxes immediately. But we do promise to continue all the services that our taxes pay for, and we
hope
that we will manage things so well that after a short time some taxes may be
reduced.

30. One of these people shares the same ideas as the writer. Whose idea is
it?
A. I just don't know where I'm going to find the money I need. There's so much to pay
for.
B. The trouble with people nowadays is that they all want something for nothing. They think
they
should be able to get whatever they want. But they don't realise that some one is going to have
to
pay for it in the
end.
C. I know I ought to go and see the doctor, but I don't think I can afford it. I know he will tell me
to
buy some medicine, but I just haven't got the
money.
D. What the government ought to do is give people control of their own money, if we didn't have
to
pay taxes we'd be able to afford to pay all our own
bills.

Scientists used to believe that our 24-hour cycle of sleeping and waking was governed entirely

The Hopi are part of the Pueblo Indian culture. Today they live mostly in northeastern Arizona, at
the
edge of the Painted Desert. Something that sets the Hopi off from others cultures is that it is in some senses
a
maternal rather a paternal
culture.
The Hopi are divided into clans, or families, along maternal lines, and, as a result, a child becomes
a
member of the mother's clan rather than the father's. In addition, ownership of property, such as land
and
houses, passes from mother to daughter instead of from father to son, as it does in other Native
American
cultures. However, women do not have all the power in this culture. Societal authority still rests in the
hands
of men, but that authority does pass to men from their
mothers.
