Loneliness is a curious thing. Most of us can remember feeling most lonely when we were not in
fact alone at all, but when we were surrounded by people. Everyone has experienced, at some time,
that utter sense of isolation that comes over you when you are at a party, in a room full of happy
laughing people, or in an audience at a theatre or a lecture. It suddenly seems to you as if everybody
knows everybody else, everybody is sure of himself, everybody knows what is going on; everybody,
that is, except you.
This feeling of loneliness which can overcome you when are in a crowd is very difficult to get rid
of. People living alone - divorced, widowed or single people - are advised to tackle their loneliness by
joining a club or society, by going out and meeting people. Does this really help? And what do you do
if you are already surrounded by people?

There are no easy solutions. Your first day at work, or at a new school or university, is a typical
situation in which you are likely to feel lonely. You feel lonely because you feel left out of things. You
feel that everybody else is full of confidence and knows what to do, but you are adrift and helpless.
The fact of the matter is that, in order to survive, we all put on a show of self-confidence to hide our
uncertainties and doubts. So it is wrong to assume that you are alone.
In a big city it is particularly easy to get the feeling that everybody except you is leading a full,

rich, busy life. Everybody is going somewhere, and you tend to assume that they are going somewhere
nice and interesting, where they can find life and fulfilment. You are also going somewhere, and there
is no reason at all to believe that your destination is any less, or, for that matter, any more exciting than
the next man's.
The trouble is that you may not be able to hide the fact that you are lonely, and the miserable look
on your face might well put people off. After all, if you are at a party you are not likely to try to strike
up a conversation with a person who has a gloomy expression on his face and his lips turned down at
the comers. So trying to look reasonably cheerful is a good starting point in combating loneliness, even
if you are choking inside.
The next thing to avoid is finding yourself in a group where in fact you are a stranger, that is, in the
sort of group where all the other people already know each other. There is a natural tendency for
people to stick together, to form 'cliques'. You will do yourself no good by trying to establish yourself
in a group which has so far managed to do very well without you. Groups generally resent intrusion,
not because they dislike you personally, but because they have already had to work quite hard to turn
the group into the functioning unit. To include you means having to go over a lot of ground again, so
that you can learn their language, as it was, and get involved in their conversation at their level. Of
course if you can offer something the group needs, such as expert information, you can get in quickly.
In fact the surest way of getting to know others is to have an interest in common with them. There
is no guarantee that you will then like each other, but at least part of your life will be taken up with
sharing experiences with others. It is much better than always feeling alone. If all this seems to be a
rather pessimistic view of life, you have to accept the fact that we are all alone when it comes down to
it. When the most loving couple in the world kiss and say goodnight, as soon as the husband falls
asleep, the wife realizes that she is alone, that her partner is as far away as if he were on another planet.
But it is no cause for despair: there is always tomorrow.
Question 41: The usual advice for overcoming loneliness is to
A. join a club
C. try to forget everything
B. avoid crowds
D. get married
Question 42: People who have formed a group tend to

A. refuse to talk with newcomers.
C. be interested in newcomers.
B. be rude to newcomers.
D. ignore newcomers.
Question 43: You can feel isolated at a party because
A. Everyone else feels at home.
B. You think that everyone else is arrogant.
C. Nobody smiles at you.
D. You think that other people are laughing at you.
Question 44: In a city it is easy to believe that other people
A. have a better job than you do
C. lead a more interesting life than you do
B. have more money than you do
D. are too busy to talk to you
Question 45: Other people are unlikely to want to talk to you if
A. you interrupt their conversation.

B. you tell them that you are feeling lonely.
D. you look miserable.

( ID: 91653 ) 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.
Alexis de Tocqueville, the French political scientist, historian, philosopher and politician, is most
famous for a four-volume book he wrote called “Democracy in America”. He came to America in
1831 to study the American form of democracy and what it might mean to the rest of the world. After
a visit of only nine months, he wrote a remarkable book which is regarded as a classic. De Tocqueville
had unusual powers of observation. He described not only the democratic system of government and
how it operated, but also its effect on how Americans think, feel, and act. Many scholars believe he
had a deeper understanding of traditional American beliefs and values than anyone else who has
written about the United States. What is so remarkable is that many of these traits which he observed
nearly 200 years ago, are still visible and meaningful today. His observations are also important
because the timing of his visit, the 1830s, was before America was industrialized. This was the era of
the small farmer, the small businessman, and the settling of the western frontier. It was the period of
history when the traditional values of the new country were newly established. In just a generation,
some 40 years since the adoption of the U.S. Constitution, the new form of government had already
produced a society of people with unique values. He was, however, a neutral observer and saw both
the good and bad sides of these qualities.
The first part of “Democracy in America” was written in 1831-32 and published in 1835. A highly
positive and optimistic account of American government and society, the book was very well received.
He attempted to get a glimpse of the essence of American society, all the while promoting his own
philosophy: the equaling of the classes and the inevitable depth of aristocratic privilege. The rest of the
book he labored on for four years, and in 1840 the second part was published. This was substantially
more pessimistic than the first, warning of the dangers despotism and governmental centralization, and
applying his ideas and criticisms more directly to France. As a result, it was not received as well as the
first part, except in England where it was acclaimed highly.
Question 51: The phrase “these traits” refers to

A. observations
C. traditional American beliefs and values
B. how Americans think, feel, and act
D. visible and meaningful observations
Question 52: What is the passage primarily about?
A. the progress achieved in America within about 40 years after adoption of the U.S. Constitution
B. “Democracy in America”
C. Alexis de Tocqueville
D. the impact of the book “Democracy in America”
Question 53: The word “unique” in the passage is closest in meaning to

A. clearly identifiable

D. positive
Question 54: According to the passage, when did de Tocqueville visit America?
A. 1831 B. 1830s C. 1831-32 D. 1835
Question 55: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. the English don’t like the French
B. the book was most important because it was the first time that American values had been clearly
documented
C. de Tocqueville was a slow writer
D. de Tocqueville was primarily motivated by an interest in his own country
Question 56: According to the passage, “Democracy in America” consisted of how many volumes?

A. the visit lasted only five months.
B. the visit coincided with American industrialization.
C. the first part was published in 1835; the second part in 1840.
D. the second part was more optimistic than the first.

Question 58: What in the passage is mentioned as being truly remarkable?
A. the book was so detailed and thorough after only such a comparatively short visit.
B. de Tocqueville’s powers of observation
C. many of his observations are still visible and meaningful today.
D. that the second volume should be so pessimistic in comparison with the first.

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 questions from 50 to 59.

Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of
communicating without using speech. Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in every known
culture. The basic function of signal is to impinge upon the environment in such a way that it attracts
attention, as. For example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit. Coded to refer to speech, the
potential for communication is very great. Less adaptable to the codification of words, signs also contain
meaning in and of themselves. A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently.
Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their intricate relationship
with the receiver‟s cultural perceptions. In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers
with an auditory symbol of approval. Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain
cultural messages.
Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage.
They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver. As
a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods are based
upon speech. Radio, television, and the telephone are only a few.
Question 50: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Gestures
C. Speech
B. Signs and signals
D. Communication
Question 51: What does the author say about speech?
A. It is dependent upon the advances made by inventors.
B. It is the most advanced form of communication.
C. It is necessary for communication to occur.
D. It is the only true form of communication.
Question 52: According to the passage, what is a signal?

A. A form of communication that interrupts the environment.
B. The most difficult form of communication to describe
C. A form of communication which may be used across long distances.

A. a signal B. a sign C. a gesture D. a symbol
Question 58: Why were the telephone, radio, and television invented?

B. Because people wanted to communicate across long distances.

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 questions from 60 to 64.
In the mid – nineteenth century, the United States had tremendous natural resources that could be
exploited in order to develop heavy industry. Most of the raw materials that are valuable in the
manufacture of machinery, transportation facilities, and consumer goods lay ready to be worked into
wealth. Iron, coal, and oil – the basic ingredients of industrial growth – were plentiful and needed only the
application of technical expertise, organizational skill, and labor.
One crucial development in this movement toward industrialization was the growth of the
railroads. The railway network expanded rapidly until the railroad map of the United States looked like a
spider‟s web, with the steel filaments connecting all important sources of raw materials, their places of
manufacture, and their centers of distribution. The railroads contributed to the industrial growth not only
by connecting these major centers, but also by themselves consuming enormous amounts of fuel, iron,
and coal.
Many factors influenced emerging modes of production. For example, machine tools, the tools
used to make goods, were steadily improved in the latter part of the nineteenth century – always with an
eye to speedier production and lower unit costs. The products of the factories were rapidly absorbed by
the growing cities that sheltered the workers and the distributors. The increased urban population was
nourished by the increased farm production that, in turn, was made more productive by the use of the new
farm machinery. American agricultural production kept up with the urban demand and still had surpluses
for sale to the industrial centers of Europe.
The labor that ran the factories and built the railways was recruited in part from American farm
areas where people were being displaced by farm machinery, in part from Asia, and in part from Europe.
Europe now began to send tides of immigrants from eastern and southern Europe – most of whom were
originally poor farmers but who settled in American industrial cities. The money to finance this
tremendous expansion of the American economy still came from European financiers for the most part,
but the American were approaching the day when their expansion could be financed in their own “ money
market”.
Question 60: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The history of railroads in the United States
B. The major United States industrial centers

I. PHẦN TRẮC NGHIỆM (64 Câu; 8 điểm)


I. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
The Planets of Jupiter
The largest of the giant gas planets, Jupiter, with a volume 1,300 times greater than Earth’s, contains more
than twice the mass of all the other planets combined. It is thought to be a gaseous and fluid planet without
solid surfaces, Had it been somewhat more massive, Jupiter might have attained internal temperatures as high
as the ignition point for nuclear reactions, and it would have flamed as a star in its own right. Jupiter and the
other giant planets are of a low-density type quite distinct from the terrestrial planets: they are composed
predominantly of such substances as hydrogen, helium, ammonia, and methane, unlike terrestrial planets.
Much of Jupiter’s interior might be in the form of liquid, metallic hydrogen, Normally, hydrogen is a gas, but
under pressures of millions of kilograms per square centimeter, which exist in the deep interior of Jupiter, the
hydrogen atoms might lock together to form a liquid with the properties of a metal. Some scientists believe
that the innermost core of Jupiter might be rocky, or metallic like the core of Earth.
Jupiter rotates very fast, once every 9.8 hours. As a result, its clouds, which are composed largely of frozen

and liquid ammonia, have been whipped into alternating dark and bright bands that circle the planet at
different speeds in different latitudes. Jupiter’s puzzling Great Red Spot changes size as it hovers in the
Southern Hemisphere. Scientists speculate it might be a gigantic hurricane, which because of its large size (the
Earth could easily fit inside it), lasts for hundreds of years.
Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as it receives from the Sun. Perhaps this is primeval heat or beat
generated by the continued gravitational contraction of the planet. Another star like characteristic of Jupiter is
its sixteen natural satellites, which, like a miniature model of the Solar System, decrease in density with
distance from rocky moons close to Jupiter to icy moons farther away. If Jupiter were about 70 times more
massive, it would have become a star, Jupiter is the best-preserved sample of the early solar nebula, and with
its satellites, might contain the most important clues about the origin of the Solar System.

A. attempted B. lost C. changed D. reached
Question 2. The word they in paragraph 1 refers to _____.
A. nuclear reactions B. giant planets C. terrestrial D. substances

have _____.
A. solid surfaces B. similar masses C. similar atmospheres
Question 5. The clouds surrounding Jupiter are mostly composed of _____.
D. metallic cores
A. ammonia B. helium C. hydrogen D. methane
