II. Read the
passage
and then
choose
one
answer for
each of the
following questions:
England's highest main-line railway station hangs on to
life
by a thread: deserted anh

unmanned since it was officially closed in 1970. Dents, situated high in the hills of Yorkshire, wakes up
on
SlX

summer weekends each year, when a
special charter train unloads walkers, highest station
to its platforms.
But even this limited existence may soon be brought to an end.
Dent station is situated on the
settle to Carlisle
railway
line, said to be the most scenic in the country. But no amount
of
scenic beauty can save the line from the British Rail’s each problems. This year, for the sake
of economy, the express trains which used to pass through Dent station have been put to another route.
It is now an open secret that British Rail sees no future
for
this railway line. Most of its
trains disappeared some times
ago.
Bridge, built on a grand scale a century ago, is falling
down.
It
is not alone. Half a dozen railway routes in the North
of England

are
facing a similar threat. The problem is a worn
out
system and an almost total lack of cash
to repair it. Bridges
and
tunnels are showing their ages, the wooden supports for
the tracks

are rotting and engines and coaches are getting old.
On major lines between large cities, the
problem IS not too bad. These lines still make a profit and cash can be found
to
maintain them. But on the country branch line, the story
is different. As track wears our,
it is not replaced. Instead speed limits are introduced, making the journey longer than
necessary
and discouraging customers.
If a bridge is dangerous, there is often one thing for British Rail to do: go out and find money from
another source. This is exactly what it did a few months ago when a bridge at bridling station was
threatening to fall down. Repairs were estimated at 200,000 pounds just for one bridge and British Rail
was delighted, and rather surprised when two local councils offered half that amount between them.
1. Since 1970 Dent station has been used
a. Only for a part of each year.
b. Only in some years.
c. Only by local people.
d. Only by hill walkers.
2. Of all the railway routes in British the one which passes through Dent;
a. is the most historic;
b. passes through the most attractive countryside;
c. is the most expensive number of tourists;
4
d. carries the greatest number of tourists.
3. The most urgent problem for many country railway lines is that of
a. rebuilding bridge.
b. Repairing engines.
c. Renewing coaches;
d. Repairing station.
4. The people most affected by the difficulties facing the British Rail would appear to be

a. businessmen.
b. Organized groups.
c. Occasional and local traveler’s
d. Holiday-makers.
5. In order to improve the financial situation of the country railway lines, British Rail should.
a. introduce speed limits;
b. reduce scale of maintenance;
c. increase fares.
d. Appearl to local councils.

Viết đoạn Văn
D
ear Mom and Dad,
By this time I am well-adjusted! to living away from home. Living ill another
country is the only way te become acquainted with what the people are really like,
It is only by becoming very good friends with some of the American students here
at school
that I have gained lots of insights into their way of life.
•
Even though the countryside looks very different here and
the weather changes
to great extremes, from winter cold and snow to summer sun and heat. I find
that people are the
same
everywhere. Everyone has friends. Everyone is concerned
about Irving in peace with his fellowmen, but sometimes this is bard to see clearly.
All man have love for their country
and a need to do satisfying work.
And everyone need to have a home of his own family.
I am learning a lot by being here fore so long. I am learning about life through living here.
And not just from studying at the universty.
However, studying is what I must do right now. So until I write again, I remain your loving
son.
