(134846) Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer.
Choosing a career may be one of the hardest jobs you ever have, and it must be done with care.
View a career as an opportunity to do something you love, not simply as a way to earn a living.
Investing the time and effort to thoroughly explore your options can mean the difference between finding
a stimulating and rewarding career and move from job to unsatisfying job in an attempt to find the right
one. Work influences virtually every aspect of your life, from your choice of friends to where you live.
Here are just a few of the factors to consider.
Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision. You may want to
begin by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths and weaknesses. Think about the classes, hobbies and
surroundings that you find most appealing. Ask yourself questions, such as “Would you like to travel? Do
you want to work with children? Are you more suited to solitary or cooperative work?” There are no right
or wrong answers; only you know what is important to you. Determine which job features you require,
which ones you would prefer, and which ones you cannot accept. Then rank them in order of importance
to you.
The setting of the job is one factor to take into account. You may not want to sit at a desk all
day. If not, there is diversity of occupation – building inspector, supervisor, and real esate agent – that
involve a great deal of time away from the office. Geographical location may be a concern, and
employment in some fields is concentrated in certain regions. Advertising job can generally be found only
in large cities. On the other hand, many industries such as hostels, law education, and retail sales are
found in all regions of the country. If a high salary is important to you, do not judge a career by its
starting wages. Many jobs, such as insurance sales, offer relatively low starting salaries; however, pay
substantially increases along with your experience, additional training, promotions and commission.
Don’t rule out any occupation without learning more about it. Some industries evoke positive or
negative associations. The travelling life of a flight attendant appears glamorous, while that of a plumber
does not. Remember that many jobs are not what they appear to be at first, and may have merits or

demerits that are less obvious. Flight attendants must work long, grueling hours without sleeps, whereas
plumbers can be as highly paid as doctors.
Another point to consider is that as you mature, you will likely develop new interests and skills
that may point the way to new opportunities. The choices you make today need not be your final one.
Question 45: The writer states that “There are no right or wrong answers” in order to ________
A. emphasize that each person’s answers will be different
B. show that answering the question is a long and difficult process
C. indicate that the answers are not really important
D. indicate that each person’s answer may change over time.

C. you will be at your job for a lifetime, so choose carefully
D. you will probably jobless at some time in the future

Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals and high- quality protein, eggs,
also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in
fact, contains a little more than two- thirds of the suggested cholesterol limit. This knowledge has driven
egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several
alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is eating substitute eggs. These egg substitutes are not
really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having
low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One disadvantage, however, is that
they are not good for frying, poaching or boiling. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of
egg, sometimes called “designer” eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low- fat diets
consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax and rice bran. In spite of their diet, however, these hens
produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of these
eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies
to back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels
have brought mixed result. It may be that it is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of
cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol
derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the
body’s production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one’s intake of
eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help
reduce the blood cholesterol level.
Question 55: What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary at increases the blood cholesterol level.
B. To make people know about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol.
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten.
D. To convince people to eat “designer” eggs and eggs substitutes.
Question 56: According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart diseases?
A. Mineral
B. Cholesterol

C. Canola oil
D. Vitamins
Question 57: What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. Increasing price
B. Decreased production
C. Dietary changes in hens
D. Concern about cholesterol
Question 58: What is meant by the phrase “mixed result”?
A. The results are blended
B. The results are a composite of things
C. The results are inconclusive
D. The results are mingled together
Question 59: According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol?
A. Reducing egg intake but not fat intake
B. Increasing egg intake and fat intake
C. Decreasing egg intake and fat intake
D. Increasing egg intake but not fat intake
Question 60: Which of the following could best replace the word “somewhat”?
A. a lot
B. a little
C. indefinitely
D. in fact
Question 61: According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested
daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol?
A. 1/2
B. 2/3
C. 3/4
D. 1/3
Question 62: The word “portrayed” could best be replaced by which of the following?
A. studied

B. tested
C. destroyed
D. described
Question 63: What is the meaning of “back up”?
A. reverse
B. advance
C. block
D. support
Question 64: According to the passage, egg substitutes cannot be used to make any of the following
types of eggs EXCEPT ______
A. boiled
B. poached
C. scrambled
D. fried

Part II
The party that was the most memorable to me is my birthday party last month. When I turned
18, my parents held a big birthday party for me in a famous restaurant in order to make it a remarkable
event in my life. All my friends and relatives were invited to the party and all of them brought me lovely
gifts. While I sliced the cake, they sang the happy birthday song and wished me many good things. The
food was delicious and the atmosphere was totally wonderful. Then we sang and danced very happily.
After that, we came to my house and everyone played many games. But the most unforgettable thing was
the declaration of love by a classmate to me. I was very surprised and moved because I also had feelings
for him. That was the party I would never forget.

SECTION A (8 points)
(132860) 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.
Learning means acquiring knowledge or developing the ability to perform new behaviors. It is common to
think of learning as something that takes place in school, but much of human learning occurs outside the
classroom, and people continue to learn throughout their lives.
Even before they enter school, young children learn to walk, to talk, and to use their hands to manipulate toys,
food, and other objects. They use all of their senses to learn about the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells in their
environments. They learn how to interact with their parents, siblings, friends, and other people important to
their world. When they enter school, children learn basic academic subjects such as reading, writing, and
mathematics. They also continue to learn a great deal outside the classroom. They learn which behaviors are
likely to be rewarded and which are likely to be punished. They learn social skills for interacting with other
children. After they finish school, people must learn to adapt to the many major changes that affect their lives,
such as getting married, raising children, and finding and keeping a job.
Because learning continues throughout our lives and affects almost everything we do, the study of learning is
important in many different fields. Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate children.
Psychologists, social workers, criminologists, and other human-service workers need to understand how
certain experiences change people’s behaviors. Employers, politicians, and advertisers make use of the
principles of learning to influence the behavior of workers, voters, and consumers.

Learning is closely related to memory, which is the storage of information in the brain. Psychologists who
study memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage takes place, and how the
brain later retrieves knowledge when we need it. In contrast, psychologists who study learning are more
interested in behavior and how behavior changes as a result of a person’s experiences.
There are many forms of learning, ranging from simple to complex. Simple forms of learning involve a
single stimulus. A stimulus is anything perceptible to the senses, such as a sight, sound, smell, touch, or taste.
In a form of learning known as classical conditioning, people learn to associate two stimuli that occur in
sequence, such as lightning followed by thunder. In operant conditioning, people learn by forming an
association between a behavior and its consequences (reward or punishment). People and animals can also
learn by observation - that is, by watching others perform behaviors. More complex forms of learning include
learning languages, concepts, and motor skills.

(132902) 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.
In the West, cartoons are used chiefly to make people laugh. The important feature of all these cartoons is

the joke and the element of surprise which is contained. Even though it is very funny, a good cartoon is
always based on close observation of a particular feature of life and usually has a serious purpose.
Cartoons in the West have been associated with political and social matters for many years. In wartime, for
example, they proved to be an excellent way of spreading propaganda. Nowadays cartoons are often used to
make short, sharp comments on politics and governments as well as on a variety of social matters. In this
way, the modern cartoon has become a very powerful force in influencing people in Europe and the United
States.
Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese cartoon drawings in the past have
also attempted to educate people, especially those who could not read and write. Such cartoons about the
lives and sayings of great men in China have proved extremely useful in bringing education to illiterate and
semi-literate people throughout China. Confucius, Mencius and Laozi have all appeared in very interesting
stories presented in the form of cartoons. The cartoons themselves have thus served to illustrate the
teachings of the Chinese sages in a very attractive way.
In this sense, many Chinese cartoons are different from Western cartoons in so far as they do not depend
chiefly on telling jokes. Often, there is nothing to laugh at when you see Chinese cartoons. This is not their
primary aim. In addition to commenting on serious political and social matters, Chinese cartoons have
aimed at spreading the traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely as possible among the people.
Today, however, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading knowledge. They offer a very
attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout the world, regardless of the particular country in
which they live. Thus, through cartoons, the thoughts and teachings of the old Chinese philosophers and
sages can now reach people who live in such countries as Britain, France, America, Japan, Malaysia or
Australia and who are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture.
Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly from the West to the East
and not vice versa. By means of cartoons, however, publishing companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong and
Singapore are now having success in correcting this imbalance between the East and the West.
Cartoons can overcome language barriers in all foreign countries. The vast increase in the popularity of
these cartoons serves to illustrate the truth of Confucius’s famous saying “One picture is worth a thousand
words.”
Question 36: Which of the following clearly characterizes Western cartoons?
A. Seriousness, propaganda, and attractiveness. B.

Enjoyment, liveliness, and carefulness.
C. Humour, unexpectedness, and criticism.
D. Originality, freshness, and astonishment.
Question 37: Chinese cartoons have been useful as an important means of
.
A. amusing people all the time
B. educating ordinary people
C. spreading Western ideas
D. political propaganda in wartime
Question 38: The major differences between Chinese cartoons and Western cartoons come from their .
A. purposes
B. values
C. nationalities
D. styles
Question 39: The pronoun “this” in paragraph 4 mostly refers to
.
A. a propaganda campaign
B. a funny element
C. a piece of art
D. an educational purpose

Thông tin ở câu đầu tiên của bài: “Learning means acquiring knowledge or developing the ability to perform
new behaviors.” (=A. Knowledge acquisition and ability development)
(acquisition là dạng danh từ của động từ acquire)
2. A
Thông tin ở đoạn số 2:
- They learn how to interact with their parents, siblings, friends, and other people important to their world.
(interpersonal communication: giao tiếp giữa các cá nhân): Chúng được học cách giao tiếp với cha mẹ, anh chị
em, bạn bè, và những người quan trọng với chúng.
- They learn which behaviors are likely to be rewarded and which are likely to be punished. (right from wrong:

Chỉ có A. literacy and calculation là không được nhắc đến
3. A
Thông tin ở câu cuối của đoạn 2: “After they finish school, people must learn to adapt to the many major
changes that affect their lives, such as getting married, raising children, and finding and keeping a job.” (Mọi
người phải học cách thích ứng với những thay đổi chính có ảnh hưởng đến cuộc sống) = the changes to which
people have to orient themselves: những thay đổi mà con người phải tự định hướng cho bản thân.
4. B
Thông tin ở câu cuối cùng của đoạn 1: “It is common to think of learning as something that takes place in
school, but much of human learning occurs outside the classroom, and people continue to learn throughout
their lives.”: (Mọi người thường nghĩ rằng học tập diễn ra ở trường học, nhưng nhiều quá trình học tập của con
người diễn ra ở ngoài lớp học = It takes place more frequently in real life than in academic institutions. (Học
tập diễn ra thường xuyên ở thực tế hơn là ở các trường học)
5. A
Sự giải thích cho đáp án này được lấy ví dụ ở những câu cuối đoạn 3: “Psychologists, social workers,
criminologists, and other human-service workers need to understand how certain experiences change
people’s behaviors. Employers, politicians, and advertisers make use of the principles of learning to
influence the behavior of workers, voters, and consumers.” Mỗi người ở các lĩnh vực khác nhau cần học tập,

tìm hiểu về một khía cạnh, vấn đề khác nhau.
Tức là: the great influence of the on-going learning process (sự ảnh hưởng của quá trình học tập đang diễn ra
– học tập chuyên về vấn đề gì đó sẽ ảnh hưởng lớn từ quá trình học tập đó, ví dụ học tâm lý thì cần phải hiểu
được những thay đổi trong hành vi con người…)
6. C
Thông tin ở câu cuối đoạn 3: “Employers, politicians, and advertisers make use of the principles of learning to
influence the behavior of workers, voters, and consumers.” = “thoroughly understand the behaviours of the
objects of their interest”: hiểu được thái độ của những đối tượng họ quan tâm (workers, voters, and consumers)

7. A
“retrieves ” = “recovers”: lấy lại, tìm lại được, phục hồi
8. A
Thông tin ở đoạn 4: “Psychologists who study memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge,
where this storage takes place, and how the brain later retrieves knowledge when we need it. In contrast,
psychologists who study learning are more interested in behavior and how behavior changes as a result of a
person’s experiences.” Những nhà tâm lý học về trí nhớ thì quan tâm đến làm sao bộ óc lưu trữ các kiến
thức, còn những nhà tâm lý học về kiến thức thì quan tâm đến thái độ hơn.
Do vậy, đáp án A là không đúng (Psychologists are all interested in memory as much as behaviours.) Không
phải tất cả các nhà tâm lý đều quan tâm trí nhớ như thái độ.
9. D
Thông tin ở đoạn cuối: “A stimulus is anything perceptible to the senses” Tác nhân kích thích là tất cả những gì
có thể nhận thức, nhận thấy qua các giác quan. Tức là bears relation to perception (có sự liên quan đến sự nhận
thức)

11. A
“erecting” -> “erected”
Vì chủ ngữ là vật (the Statue of Liberty) nên phải dùng dạng bị động
12. C
“that I realized” -> “did I realize”
Đây là cấu trúc đảo ngữ với Not until: “Not until + mệnh đề bình thường + mệnh đề đảo ngữ ( đảo trợ động từ
lên trước chủ ngữ và động từ)”
13. B

“did Mathew look” -> “Mathew looked”
Đây là câu trần thuật, không phải câu hỏi nên không cần đảo trợ động từ did lên trước chủ ngữ

Sự khác biệt giữa hoạt hình Trung Quốc và phương Tây nằm ở mục đích của chúng.
- In the West, cartoons are used chiefly to make people laugh.
- Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese cartoon drawings in the past have also
attempted to educate people, especially those who could not read and write.
39. B
“this” được thay thế cho a funny element trong câu trước đó: many Chinese cartoons are different from

Western cartoons in so far as they do not depend chiefly on telling jokes. (yếu tố hài hước = telling jokes)
40. D
Bài văn giới thiệu về sự trái ngược giữa hoạt hình phương Tây và hoạt hình Trung Quốc trên phương diện mục
đích, các vấn đề trong hoạt hình đề cập đến.
Đoạn 1 và 2 là giới thiệu về hoạt hình ở phương Tây
Đoạn 3,4,5 là cụ thể về hoạt hình Trung Quốc
2 đoạn cuối là sự giao thoa và kết luận

They offer a very attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout the world, regardless of the
particular country in which they live.” = spreading the Chinese ideas and cultural values throughout the world
43. B

to the East (the dominant cultural influence of the West over the East) trong câu đầu tiên của đoạn 6
44. C
Thông tin ở đoạn 3: “Such cartoons about the lives and sayings of great men in China have proved extremely
useful in bringing education to illiterate and semi-literate people throughout China.” = The philosophies and
sayings of ancient Chinese thinkers.
Hoạt hình Trung Quốc thường nói về những triết lý hoặc câu nói của những người Trung Quốc xưa
45. D
Cartoons can serve various purposes: Hoạt hình có thể phục vụ nhiều mục đích khác nhau, như phương Tây
mục đích chính là đem lại sự hài hước, Trung Quốc mục đích chính là giáo dục con người…
46. C
Cấu trúc so sánh càng … càng: The more adj…., the more adj…
Câu B satisfaction là danh từ, nên đáp án B không phù hợp.
Đáp án D bị sai vị trí chủ ngữ và to be
Đáp án C là phù hợp nhất

47. B
Cụm “do the washing up”: rửa chén đũa
48. D
“otherwise”: nếu không, không thì…
49. B

55. D
Cụm “make up for st”: đền bù vào, bù vào cái gì đó
56. D
Câu này ở thì quá khứ nên động từ được chia là began
“begin to do st/doing st”: bắt đầu làm gì đó
Đáp án A bị sai thì động từ

Đáp án B thiếu giới từ to hoặc thiếu –ing
Đáp án C không đúng vì thiếu hẳn vị ngữ (chỉ có chủ ngữ)
Đáp án D là đúng nhất

- Bạn có phiền cho mình mượn xe không?
- Không, mình không phiền chút nào
58. C
“should + have + động từ phân từ II”: diễn tả lời khuyên về một việc đã nên làm trong quá khứ nhưng thực tế
đã không làm
59. D
Ở đây ta cần một trạng từ để bổ sung ý nghĩa cho tính từ inaccurate.
“historically” (trạng từ): về phương diện lịch sử, theo phương diện lịch sử
60. D
Cấu trúc đảo ngữ nhấn mạnh tính từ: Adj +as/though + S + be (may/might be)
Cấu trúc nhấn mạnh này thường được đứng đầu câu, tách biệt ở một vế để nhấn mạnh tính chất, đặc điểm (tính
từ) của chủ ngữ
61. D
Đáp án A,B, C không phù hợp vì có dấu phảy trước và sau
Đáp án D là đúng nhất, “who” là mệnh đề quan hệ, thay thế cho the scientist

Do đó, động từ continue cũng phải được chia ở thì quá khứ đơn (continued)
63. C
“Shall we…?” là một lời gợi ý, lời mời
Để đáp lại lời gợi ý đó, ta có thể sử dụng That’s a great idea
64. C
A và B sau đó danh từ được chia số ít không phải số nhiều, nên A, B không đúng
Nếu dùng all of thì thường phải có the trước danh từ
Đáp án C. all là đúng nhất

Question 66: The tea was so hot that Peter couldn’t drink it.
Cấu trúc “…so…that…”: đến nỗi mà…. Dùng để nhấn mạnh tính chất, đặc điểm
Question 67: I haven’t had my hair cut since I left her
Trong thì hiện tại hoàn thành, since + mốc thời gian hoặc + một mệnh đề quá khứ ( vì hiện tại hoàn thành

Question 68: Tom apologised for not calling/having called Mary that morning.
Cấu trúc “apologise for doing st”: xin lỗi, nhận lỗi vì làm việc gì
