Read the text carefully and then choose the correct answers.
It can be shown in facts and figures that cycling is the cheapest, most

convenient, and most environmentally desirable term of transport in towns, but
such cold calculations do not mean much on a frosty winter morning. The real
appeal of cycling is that it is so enjoyable. It has none of the difficulties and
tensions of other ways of traveling so you are more cheerful after a ride, even
through the rush hour.
The first thing a non-cyclist says to you is: “But isn’t it terribly dangerous?” It
would be foolish to deny the danger of sharing the road with motor vehicles and
it must be admitted that there are an alarming number of accidents involving
cyclists. However, although police records indicate that the car driver is often to
blame, the answer lies with the cyclist. It is possible to ride in such a way as to
reduce risks to a minimum.

If you decide to join the thousands in Britain who are now returning to cycling
as a cheap, satisfying form of transport your first problem will be trying to decide
what bike to buy. Here are three simple rules for buying a bike:
1.

Always buy the best you can afford. Of course there has to be a

meeting point between what you would really like and economic reality, but
aim as high as you can and you will get the benefit not only when you ride but
also if you want to sell. Well-made bikes keep theứ value very well. And don't
forget to include in your calculations the fact that you'll begin saving money
on fares and petrol the minute you leavethe

2.

shop.

Get the best frame, the main structure of the bicycle, for your money as

you can. Cheap brakes, wheels or gears can easily be replaced by more
expensive ones, but the frame sets the upper limit on any transformation.
You should allow for the possibility our cycling ambitions will grow with
practice. When you begin, the four miles to work may the most you ever
dream of, but after a few months a Sunday ride into the country begins to look
more and more desứable. The best thing is to buy a bike just a little bit better
than you think you’ll need, and then grow into it. Otherwise, try to get a model
that can be improved.
The fit is vital. Handlebars and seat height can be adjusted but you must
get the right sized frame. On the whole it is best to get the largest size you
can manage. Frame sizes are measured in inches and the usual adult range
is from 21 inches to 25 inches, though extreme sizes outside those
measurements can be found. Some people say if you take four inches off
from your inside leg measurement you will end up with the right size of bike.
The basic principle though is that you should be able to stand with legs either
side of the crossbar (the bar that goes from the handlebars to the seat) with
both feet comfortably flat on the ground.
Câu 1: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as the
advantages of cycling?'
A It’s not costly
B: It’s convenient and psychologically comfortable

_________

A people who say cycling is dangerous are foolish

The advent of the Internet may be one of the most important technological developments in
recent years. Never before have so many people had access to so many different sources of
information. For all of the Internet’s advantages, however, people are currently becoming aware
of some of its drawbacks and are looking for creative solutions. Among the current problems,
which include a general lack of reliability and numerous security concerns, the most crucial is
speed.
First of all, the Internet has grown very quickly. In 1990, only a few academics had ever
heard of the Internet. In 1996, over 50 million people used it. Every year, the number of people
with access to the Internet doubles. The rapid growth has been a problem. The computer systems
which run the Internet have not been able to keep up with the demand. Also, sometimes, a
request for information must pass through many routing computers before the information can be
obtained. A request for information made in Paris might have to go through computers in New
York, Los Angeles and Tokyo in order to obtain the required information. Consequently, the

service is often slow and unpredictable. Service also tends to be worse when the Internet is
busiest - during the business day of the Western Hemisphere - which is also when companies
need its service the most.
Some people are trying to harness the power of networked computers in such a way as to
avoid this problem. In 1995, a group of American universities banded together to form what has
come to be known as Internet II. Internet II is a smaller, more specialized system intended for
academic use. Since it is more specialized, fewer users are allowed access. Consequently, the
time required to receive information has decreased.
Businesses are beginning to explore a possible analogue to the Internet II. Many
businesses are creating their own “Intranets”. These are systems that can only be used by the
members of the same company. In theory, fewer users should translate into a faster system.
Intranets are very useful for large national and international companies whose branches need to
share information. Another benefit of an Intranet is an increased amount of security. Since only
company employees have access to the information on the Intranet, their information is protected
from competitors. While there is little doubt that the Internet will eventually be a fast and reliable
service, industry and the academic community have taken their own steps toward making more
practical global networks.

Câu 1: According to the passage, which of the following is not true of the Internet ?
A. It tends to be unreliable.
security.

B. It has created a sense of financial

C. It is too expensive to access.
popular.

D. It has become increasingly less

Câu 2: According to the passage, which of the following statements was true in

1990?

D. Few people were using

Câu 3: According to the author, what is one reason why the Internet is sometimes
slow?
A. Phone lines are often too busy with phone calls and fax transmissions to
handle Internet traffic.
B. Most people do not have computers that are fast enough to take advantage of
the Internet.
C. Often a request must travel through many computers before it reaches its final
destination.

D. Scientists take up too much time on the Internet , thus slowing it down for
everyone else.

Internet I?
A. There is no governmental intervention regulating Internet II.
