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.
Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by
being corrected all the time. If corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a
thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those

around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like
other people’s. In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to do


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

without being taught – to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle – compare their own
performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes.
But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone
correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a
mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he
becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help
of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem,
whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.
If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the
answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on
such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find
the way to get the right answer. Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks.
Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must
someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or
do not know.
Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help
as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be
learnt at school and used for the rest of one’s life is nonsense in a world as complicated
and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to
learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the world?” Don’t worry!
If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.
Question 6: What does the author think is the best way for children to learn things?
A. By listening to explanations from skilled people
B. By making mistakes and having them corrected

C. By asking a great many questions
D. By copying what other people do
Question 7: The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are
___________.
A. basically the same as learning other skills

B. more important than other skills

C. basically different from learning adult skills D. not really important skills

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.
The concept of obtaining fresh water from iceberg that is towed to populated areas
andarid regions of the world was once treated as a joke more appropriate to cartoons than
real life. But now it is being considered quite seriously by many nations, especially since
scientists have warned that the human race will outgrow its fresh water supply faster than
it runs out of food. Glaciers are a possible source of fresh water that has been overlooked
until recently. (A)
Three-quarters of the Earth's fresh water supply is still tied up in glacial ice, a reservoir of
untapped fresh water so immense that it could sustain all the rivers of the world for 1,000
years. Floating on the oceans every year are 7,659 trillion metric tons of ice encased in
10,000 icebergs that break away from the polaricecaps, more than ninety percent of them
from Antarctica. (B)
Huge glaciers that stretch over the shallow continental shelf give birth to icebergs
throughout the year. Icebergs are not like sea ice, which is formed when the sea itself
freezes; rather, they are formed entirely on land, breaking off when glaciers spread over
the sea. As they drift away from the polar region, icebergs sometimes move mysteriously
in a direction opposite to the wind, pulled by subsurface currents. Because they melt
more slowly than smaller pieces of ice, icebergs have been known to drift as far north as
35 degrees south of the equator in the Atlantic Ocean. (C)
The difficulty arises in other technical matters, such as the prevention of rapid melting in

warmer climates and the funneling of fresh water to shore in great volume. But even ifthe
icebergs lost half of their volume in towing, the water they could provide would befar
cheaper than that produced by desalination, or removing salt from water. (D)

___________.
A. oceans

B. riversC. glaciers

___________.
A. pulls B. waves

C. weather D. flows of water

Question 48: How are icebergs formed?
A. They break off from glaciers

B. Seawater freezes

C. Rivers freeze D. Small pieces of floating ice converge
Question 49: With which of the following ideas would the author be likely to agree?
A. Towing icebergs to dry areas is economically possible
B. Desalination of water is the best way to obtain drinking water
C. Using water from icebergs is a very short-term solution to water shortages

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.
American humor and American popular heroes were born together. The first popular heroes of the
new nation were comic heroes, and the first popular humor of the new nation was the antics of its
hero-clowns.
The heroic and the comic were combined in novel American proportions in popular literature. The
heroic themes are obvious enough and not much different from those in the legends of other times
and places: Achilles, Beowulf, Siegfried, Roland, and King Arthur. The American Davy Crockett legends
repeat the familiar pattern of the old world heroic story: the pre-eminence of a mighty hero whose fame in
myth has a tenuous basis in fact; the remarkable birth and precocious strength of the hero; single combats
in which he distinguished himself against antagonists, both man and beast; vows and boasts; pride of the
hero in his weapons, his dog, and his woman.
Davy Crockett conquered man and beast with a swaggering nonchalance. He overcame animals by


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

force of body and will. He killed four wolves at the age of six. He hugged a bear to death; he killed a
rattlesnake with his teeth. He mastered the forces of nature. Crockett’s most famous natural exploit was
saving the earth on the coldest day in history. First, he climbed a mountain to determine the trouble. Then
he rescued all creation by squeezing bear-grease on the earth’s frozen axis and over the sun’s icy face. He
whistled, “Push along, keep moving!” The earth gave a grunt and began moving.
Neither the fearlessness nor the bold huntsman’s prowess was peculiarly American. Far more
distinctive was the comic quality, all heroes are heroic; few are also clowns. What made the American
popular hero heroic also made him comic. “May be”, said Crockett, “you’ll laugh at me and not at my

book”. The ambiguity of American life and the vagueness which laid the continent open to adventure,
which made the land a rich storehouse of the unexpected, which kept vocabulary ungoverned and the
language fluid----this same ambiguity suffused both the Crockett legends were never quite certain whether
to laugh or to applaud, or whether what they saw and heard was wonderful, awful or ridiculous.
Question 6: What is the main point the author makes in the passage?
A. Davy Crockett wrote humorous stories about mastering the nature.
B. American popular heroes were characteristically comic.
C. The Davy Crockett stories reflected the adventurous spirit of early America.
D. American popular literature was based on the legends of other times and places.

A. show their similar heroic nature with the American heroes.
B. show the role they play in the world legend history.
C. compare their popularity with that of the American heroes.
D. conclude heroic deeds described in old world heroic legends.

B. Pride in the hero woman

C. Fluid use of language

D. Boasting by the hero

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.

The technology of the North American colonies did not differ strikingly from that of Europe, but in
one respect, the colonists enjoyed a great advantage. Especially by comparison with Britain, Americans
had a wonderfully plentiful supply of wood.
The first colonists did not, as many people imagine, find an entire continent covered by a climax
forest. Even along the Atlantic seaboard, the forest was broken at many points. Nevertheless, all sorts of
fine trees abounded, and through the early colonial period, those who pushed westward encountered new
forests. By the end of the colonial era, the price of wood had risen slightly in eastern cities, but wood was
still extremely abundant.
The availability of wood brought advantages that have seldom been appreciated. Wood was a
foundation of the economy. Houses and all manner of buildings were made of wood to a degree unknown
in Britain. Secondly, wood was used as fuel for heating and cooking. Thirdly, it was used as the source of


VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí

important industrial compounds, such as potash, an industrial alkali; charcoal, a component of gunpowder;
and tannic acid, used for tanning leather.
The supply of wood conferred advantages but had some negative aspects as well. Iron at that time
was produced by heating iron ore with charcoal. Because Britain was so stripped of trees, she was unable to
exploit her rich iron mines. But the American colonies had both iron ore and wood; iron production was
encouraged and became successful. However, when Britain developed coke smelting, the Colonies did not
follow suit because they had plenty of wood and besides, charcoal iron was stronger than coke iron. Coke
smelting led to technologic innovations and was linked to the emergence of the Industrial Revolution. In
the early nineteenth century, the former colonies lagged behind Britain in industrial development because
their supply of wood led them to cling to charcoal iron.
