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 from 36 to 45.
In early civilization, citizens were educated informally, usually within the family unit. Education
meant simply learning to live. As civilization became more complex, however, education became more
formal, structured, and comprehensive. Initial efforts of the ancient Chinese and Greek societies concentrated
solely on the education of males. The post-Babylonian Jews and Plato were exceptions to this pattern. Plato
was apparently the first significant advocate of the equality of the sexes. Women, in his ideal state, would
have the same rights and duties and the same educational opportunities as men. This aspect of Platonic
philosophy, however, had little or no effect on education for many centuries, and the concept of a liberal
education for men only, which had been espoused by Aristotle, prevailed. In ancient Rome, the availability of
an education was gradually extended to women, but they were taught separately from men. The early
Christians and medieval Europeans continued this trend, and single-sex schools for the privileged through
classes prevailed through the Reformation period. Gradually, however, education for women, in a separate
but equal basis to that provided for men, was becoming a clear responsibility of society. Martin Luther
Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – BỘ ĐỀ THI THỬ THQG 2015 – www.violet.vvn/quocbinh72
appealed for civil support of schools for all children. Al the Council of Trent in the 16th century, the Roman
Catholic Church encouraged the establishment of free primary schools for children of all classes. The
concept of universal primary education, regardless of sex, had been born, but it was still in the realm of the
single-sex school In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, co-education became a more widely applied
principle of educational philosophy. In Britain, Germany, and the Soviet Union the education of boys and
girls in the same classes became an accepted practice. Since World War II, Japan and the Scandinavian
countries have also adopted relatively universal co-educational systems. The greatest negative reaction to co-
education has been felt in the teaching systems of the Latin countries, where the sexes have usually been
separated at both primary and secondary levels, according to local conditions. A number of studies have
indicated that girls seem to perform better overall and in science in particular. In single-sex classes, during
the adolescent years, pressure to conform to stereotypical female gender roles may disadvantage girls in
traditionally male subjects, making them reluctant to volunteer for experimental work while taking part in
lessons. In Britain, academic league tables point to high standards achieved in girls’ schools. Some
educationalists, therefore, suggest segregation of the sexes as a good thing, particularly in certain areas, and a

number of schools are experimenting with the idea.

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.
*Passage 1: One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of
clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. But acid rain, industrial pollution and
garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes, reservoirs and even entire seas have become
vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety
of animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. But they are
being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial wastes which pour into the lake every day. Even where
law existed, the government did not have the power to enforce them. Most industries simply ignores the
regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world’s water surface. But it is the dumping ground
for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost 16 countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles off shore.
Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean water in the world was
limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution and sewage. Clean water is now scarce,
and we are at last beginning to respect this precious source. We should do something now. 56. One
environmental problem in the world today is
A. acid rain B. safe water shortage C. industrial pollution D. population explosion
57. Which of the following is NOT the reason that makes water undrinkable?
A. acid rain B. garbage C. industrial pollution D. high cost
58. What is a serious problem of Lake Baikal in Russia ?
A. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants
B. It is polluted by massive volumes of industrial wastes discharged into it.
C. It has 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world.
D. The government did not have the power to enforce laws and regulations.
59. How many countries throw industrial wastes into the Mediterranean Sea regularly?
A. exactly 16 B. exactly 15 C. nearly 16 D. less than 15
60. What is the message to the readers?
A. We should take action to protect our water resources.
B. We should take all water resources into account
C. We should limit the use of water resources.
D. We should encourage people to use safe water.
*Passage 2 The problem of the use of our natural resources may be divided into four parts. These

deal with trees, soil, water and minerals. In a sense, the first three are closely related, for water is a great
Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – BỘ ĐỀ THI THỬ THQG 2015 – www.violet.vvn/quocbinh72
destroyer of soil, and trees are its great protectors. Trees need both soil and water to grow. And water, to be of
any real use, needs to be kept by soil and trees. Minerals are apart. They exist where they are because of the
changing physical nature of the earth. Man has no control over the creation of the minerals, and once a
particular supply has been used up, it is gone forever. Conservation programmes have been instituted by most
governments to prevent these four essentials from reckless waste and to start the long process of repairing
earlier damage to forests, soil and water supply.
61.The problem of the use of our natural resources may be divided into_________.
A. two parts B. three parts C. four parts D. five parts
62 . The relations between trees, soil and water _________.

63 . Minerals exist where they are _________.
A. because of the changing physical nature of the earth
B. because they are also need to be kept by soil
C. because they are great protectors D. All are correct
64 . When minerals are used up, _________.

II. TOPIC: Write to describe your all-time favorite movie.
In life, although I have several hobbies, watching movies is the one I am more interested in. I have
watched countless films so far, but BẾN KHÔNG CHỒNG, a product of VFC (Vietnam Film Corporation) in
2001, is the one that has created the biggest impression on me ever since.
The film is set in the time of our war against the American troops in the South to unify the country
and the construction to build a communist country in the North. The ground of the story is in a tranquil poor
farming village in the North. The main characters are Mr. Van, a veteran, a secretary of the village’s
Communist Youth Union named Hanh, the two widows and the villagers. The story happens right inside the
village to the bank of a no-name-river having a namely Khong Chong river five-step-wharf.
After serving in the army Van came back to his village in which there were only old villagers together
with almost widows, girls and very few disabled men. When Van returned, he was appointed head of the
village armed group which consisted of around six armed girls including Hanh – Van’s former sweetheart’s
daughter. Van lived under the same roof with a land-lord widow and her 16 year-old son. Van was then
admired by all the villagers, so he tried his best to meet the residents’ expectations. Though sometimes the
mid-forties man felt lonely, he tried not to do wrong thing especially on sex. Time passed, peace was then
established with the unification declaration, the village was still under the misery of the war unhappiness.
Hanh married to an Army captain, but had no child for long. Debates and conflicts occurred, which made
Hanh left her husband. So disappointed, and hopeless, she entered Van’s hut by a showery night. The two
Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – BỘ ĐỀ THI THỬ THQG 2015 – www.violet.vvn/quocbinh72
thirsty unhappy persons met, and then Hanh was pregnant. Unable to live with the villagers’ prejudice, Van
and Hanh left the homeland, and finally Van killed himself by the river wharf Ben Khong Chong.
The scenes in the movie are colorful and interesting, typical for a North Vietnam’s rural village. The
story is touching and rather mournful. The acting of the main characters is excellent as they are all famous
actors and actresses. The film leaves us valuable lessons in life, and helps us know more about the rural life
courtesy. I must say that it is one of the best movies I have ever watched in my life.
