From our start in 1961, WWF has worked to protect endangered species. We're ensuring

wildlife species, as well as people.
WWF safeguards hundreds of species around the world, but we focus special attention on our flagship
species: giant pandas, tigers, polar bears, endangered whales and dolphins, rhinos, elephants, marine
turtles and great apes. These species not only need special measures and extra protection in order to
survive, they also serve as umbrella species: helping them helps numerous other species that live in
the same habitats.
WWF and its partners have a number of projects around the world to reduce Human-Wildlife Conflict
and improve the livelihoods of the people affected.
In addition to our flagship animals, we work to protect numerous species in peril around the world that
live within our priority ecoregions. Large predators like snow leopards and grizzly bears, migratory
species like whooping cranes and songbirds, and a host of other species facing threats also benefit
from WWF's conservation efforts. Our wildlife trade experts at TRAFFIC work to ensure that trade in
wildlife products doesn't harm a species, while also fighting against illegal and unsustainable trade.

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.
How can scientists predict earthquakes? Earthquakes are not scattered anywhere but happen in
certain areas. They happen in places where pieces of the earth’s surface meet. This pattern causes them


to shake the same places many times. Foe example, earthquakes often occur on the west-coast of North
and South America, around the Mediterranean Sea, and along the Pacific coast of Asia.

Another way tp predict earthquakes is to look for changes in the earth’s surface, like a sudden
drop of water level in the ground. Some people say animals can predict earthquakes. Before
earthquakes people have been chickens sitting in the trees, fish jumping out of the water, snakes
leaving their holes and other animals acting strangely.
After an earthquake happens, people can die from lack of food , water, and medical supplies. The
amount of destruction caused by an earthquake depends on where it happens, what time it happens,
and how strong it is. It also depends on types of building, soil conditions and population. Of the 6000
earthquakes in the earth each year, only about fifteen cause great damage and many deaths.
Câu 46: The passage mainly discusses .........................
A. strange animal behaviors
B. how to predict earthquakes
C. the damage caused by earthquakes
D. how strong earthquakes are
Câu 47: Earthquakes happen in certain areas where....................
A. many buildings are built
B. the soil conditions are stable
C. pieces of the earth’s surface meet.
D. the population is large
Câu 48: Earthquakes often happen along..............................
A. the east-coast of South America
B. the Pacific coast of Asia
C. the coast of Australia
D. the east-coast of North America.
Câu 49: After an earthquake, as a result of ......................... people can die.
A. lack of food
B. lack of information C. lack of knowledge D. lack of friendship

field. Through their computers and the wonders of virtual reality they can participate in lifelike
simulated experiences. Consider the following scenario of the future of education made possible
through developments in information technology.
For children over the age of 10, daily attendance at schools is not compulsory. Some of the older
children attend school only once or twice a weekly to get tutorial support or instruction from a teacher.
For the most part, pupils are encouraged to work online from home. Students should complete a
minimum number of study hour per year; however, they may make up these hours by studying at home
at times that suit their family schedule. They can log on early or late in the day and even join live
classes in other countries. In order to ensure that each student is learning adequately, computer software
will automatically monitor the number hours a week each student studies on line as well as that student's
learning materials and assessment activities. Reports will be available for parents and teachers. The
software can then identify the best learning activities and conditions for each individual student and
generate similar activities. It can be also identify areas of week achievement and produce special
programs adjusted to the students' needs.

Question 36: What is the topic of the passage?
A. Students don't have to go to school any more

Question 39: What can't the software do?
A. Find out the best activities for the students
B. Design materials for the students
C. Identify weaknesses of the students
D. Monitor the time the students learn
Question 40: What is NOT MENTIONED as a benefit of information technology to the students?

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 food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous
steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research
has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is

related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to
contact certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume.
That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates
nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meat) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these
carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which
ingredients on the packaging label of processed food are helpful or harmful.


The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because
of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.
Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial
reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market.
Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the
practices continue.
A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we
ingest. Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances
to food without our knowledge.
Question 41: How has science done to disservice to people?
A. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food
B. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables
C. It caused a lack of information concerning the value of food
D. Because of science, disease caused by contaminated food has been virtually eradicated.
Question 42: The word “prone” is nearest meaning to_________.
A. healthy
B. unlikely
C. supine
D. predisposed
Question 43: The word “carcinogenic” is closest in meaning to_________.
A. trouble-making B. money-making
C. cancer-causing

D. colorretaining
Question 44: What are nitrates used for?
A. They preserve the color of meat
B. They preserve flavor in package food
C. There are objects of research
D. They cause the animals become fatter
Question 45: FDA means____________.
A. Federal Dairy Additives
B. Food and Drug Administration
C. Final Difficult Analysis
D. Food Direct Additives
Question 46: All of the following statements are TRUE except
A. Drug are always given to animals for medical reasons
B. Food may cause forty percent of the cancer in the world
C. Researchers have known about the potential hazard of food additives for more than 45 years
D. Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals
Question 47: What is best title for this passage?
A. The food you eat can affect your health
B. Harmful and Harmless substances in food
C. Avoiding injurious substances in food
D. Improving health through a Natural Diet
Question 48: The word “fit” could be best replaced by which of the following?
A. suitable
B. tasty
C. athletic
D. adaptable
Question 49: The word “these” refers to___________?
A. researchers
B. nitrates and nitrites C. meats
D. colors

Question 50: The word “additives” is closest meaning to__________.
A. begin substance B. natural substance
C. dangerous substance D. added substance
