The steamer (nồi hơi, tàu, máy hơi nước) Mongolia was built of iron. It was due at eleven a.m. on Wednesday,
the 9th of October, at Suez. The Mongolia sailed regularly between Brindisi and Bombay (31 – via) the Suez Canal,
and was one of the fastest steamers belonging to the company. Two men were walking up and down the dock (vũng

(lãnh sự) at Suez who was in the (33 - habit) of watching, from his office window, English ships daily passing to and
fro along the great canal.
The other was a showing unmistakable (k thể nhầm) sign of impatience, nervously (34 - pacing) up and down,
and unable to stand (35 - still) for a moment. This was Fix, one of the detectives who had been sent from England in
search of the bank robber. It was his task to (36 – observe) every passenger who arrived at Suez, and to follow up any
suspicious (37 – character), or anyone who bore a (38 - resemblance) to the description of the criminal which he had
received two days before from police headquarters at London. "So you say, consul," he asked for the twentieth time,
"that this steamer is never (39 - behind) schedule?" "No, Mr. Fix," replied the consul. "The Mongolia has always been
(40 - ahead) of the time required by the company's regulations."

The London Tea Trade Centre is on the north of the River Thames. It is the centre of an industry of (41 -
great) importance in the lives of the British. Tea is without doubt the British national drink: every man, woman and
child over ten years of age has (42 - on) average over four cups a day or some 1500 cups annually. Some thirty per
cent of the world’s exports of tea make its way to London. Britain is (43 – by far) the largest importer of tea in the
world. Samples of the vast amounts of tea brought into the country to (44 - satisfy) the national thirst go to the London
Tea Trade Centre, where they are tasted by (45 - skilled) professional tea tasters before being sold at each week’s tea
sale. It is fascinating to see them at work. Over a hundred samples are (46 – laid out) in a line on long tables. Teas are
generally tasted with milk, (47 - since) that is how the majority in Britain drink their tea. The tasters move down the
line with surprising speed, tasting each sample from a spoon and deciding what is a (48 – fair) price for each tea. The
types of tea that are popular in Britain are (49 - comparatively) inexpensive but they are of a very high quality. The

A recent survey of crime statistics shows that we are all more likely to be burgled now than 20 years ago and
the police advise everyone to take a few simple precautions to protect their homes. The first fact is that burglars and
other intruders (kẻ xâm nhập) prefer easy opportunities, like a house which is very obviously empty. This is much less
of a challenge than an occupied house, and one which is well-protected. A burglar will wonder if it is worth the bother.
There are some general tips on how to avoid your home becoming another crime statistic. Avoid leaving signs
that your house is empty. When you have to go out, leave at least one light on as well as a radio or television, and do
not leave any curtains wide open. The sight of your latest music centre or computer is enough to tempt (xúi giục, hấp

dẫn) any burglar.
Never leave a spare key in a convenient hiding place. The first place a burglar will look is under the doormat
(thảm lau chân) or in a flower pot and even somewhere more 'imaginative' could soon be uncovered by the intruder. It
is much safer to leave a key with a neighbour you can trust. But if your house is in a quiet, desolate (hoang vắng) area
be aware that this will be a burglar's dream, so deter (ngăn chặn) any potential criminal from approaching your house
by fitting security lights to the outside of your house.
But what could happen if, in spite of the aforementioned (đã nêu trên) precautions, a burglar or intruder has
decided to target your home. Windows are usually the first point of entry for many intruders. Downstairs windows
provide easy access while upstairs windows can be reached with a ladder or by climbing up the drainpipe. Before
going to bed you should double-check that all windows and shutters are locked. No matter how small your windows
may be, it is surprising what a narrow gap a determined burglar can manage to get through. For extra security, fit
window locks to the inside of the window.
What about entry via doors? Your back door and patio (sân trong) doors, which are easily forced open, should
have top quality security locks fitted. Even though this is expensive it will be money well spent. Install a burglar alarm
if you can afford it as another line of defense against intruders.
A sobering (đúng mực) fact is that not all intruders have to break and enter into a property. Why go to the
trouble of breaking in if you can just knock and be invited in? Beware of bogus (ma gà, kẻ giả danh) officials or
workmen and, particularly if you are elderly, fit a chain and an eye hole so you can scrutinise (quan sát kĩ) callers at
your leisure. When you do have callers never let anybody into your home unless you are absolutely sure they are
genuine. Ask to see an identity card, for example.
If you are in the frightening position of waking in the middle of the night and think you can hear an intruder,
then on no account should you approach the intruder. It is far better to telephone the police and wait for help.
51. A well-protected house ____.
A. is less likely to be burgled. B. is regarded as a challenge by most criminals.
C. is a lot of bother to maintain. D. is very unlikely to be burgled.

A. is predictable. B. is useful.

C. is imaginative. D. is where you always find a spare key.
54. What word best replaces “desolate” in paragraph 4?

B. are the most important precautions to take to make your home safe.

A. is surprisingly difficult. B. is not as difficult as people think.

A. will prevent your home being burgled. B. avoids you having to invite people into your home.

What I love about my job is the variety. I get enquiries (việc điều tra) from people all over the world asking
me how they should go about setting up their own website. I’ve been asked about so many subjects - anything from
someone wanting to teach people how to throw boomerangs to another people selling paper flowers which they make
at home in their spare time.
Obviously with all the thousands of websites available at the click of a button, you want to create an
impression with your website so that it becomes a must-see destination. Not everyone is prepared, however, for the
way in which a website can become so popular that it actually has to be closed down.
When people first set up their websites they probably pay their web advertiser a monthly fee based on the

number of hits (visitors) or page impressions their site receives. If they can pay their monthly fee without it costing
them too much, that is the best that most people hope for. One guy, Pete Bennett, whom I helped, wanted to set up a
one-stop shop to provide decent images of the world’s flags. He’d been fascinated by flags since his boyhood and had
no idea that thousands of other people share his passion. Anyway, in one month his web page had over 1.5 million
hits. As a result his internet provider trebled (gấp 3) the fee that he was being charged. He wasn’t a rich person and he
couldn’t afford to spend that amount of money on a hobby without any benefit to him, so he decided to carry
advertising on his site. He found a company which specializes in smaller sites and adverts were added to the pages on
his website. So, although he doesn’t make a huge profit, at least his hobby provides him with a small income.
If you have specialist skills or expertise, it can pay you to sell the products that people want. I helped one
woman design a page to advertise the fact that she tells fortunes, based on the information that her clients supply her
with. If you want her to tell your fortune, you fill in a questionnaire online your age, date of birth, hobbies, interests
and so on and for a small fee she e-mails you back your fortune. You can print it out and it looks really good,
decorated with moons and stars, your zodiac (hoàng đạo) sign and your birthstone. I tried it myself and although I’m
not sure I believe it, my future according to her is positive and exciting. I also found out that for someone born in
August, like me, the birthstone is a peridot (đá/ngọc peridot), a pale green stone which I’d never even heard of!
I also get a fair number of complaints from people e-mailing me to say that they can’t access the website.
When they click on the site a message appears on their screen saying ‘An error has occurred in the script (bản chính)
on this page’. This usually happens when someone has tried to achieve fancy effects on their website by using
programming techniques based on a scripting language. This means that unless they really know what they are doing,
whoever designed the site has probably made a mistake in their programming. This is where people like me come in.
Most computer instruction guides make things appear quite straightforward, but unless you’re very skilled, you’re
likely to run into problems. It’s generally worth getting a professional to help you set up your site in the first place
otherwise people like me would be out of work. And let’s face it, this is big business.
