C. READING (3.0/10)
I. Read the following passage then choose the best option to each question.
Have you ever heard someone use the phrase “once in a blue moon”? People use this
expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone
might say that he tries to avoid eating sweets because they are unhealthy, but will eat
chocolate “once in a blue moon”. Or someone who doesn’t usually like to go to the beach
might say “I visit the shore once in a blue moon.” While many people use this phrase, not
everyone knows the meaning behind it. The first thing to know that the moon itself is never
actually blue. This is just an expression. The phrase “blue moon” actually has to do with the


shape of the moon, not the color. As the moon travels around the Earth, it appears to change
shape. We associate certain names with certain shapes of the moon. For example, when we
can see a small part of the moon, it is called a crescent moon. A crescent is a shape that
looks like a tip of a fingernail. When we cannot see the moon at all, it is called a new moon.
When we can see the entire moon, it is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full
moon every month. Sometimes, however, there will be two full moons in one month. When
this happens, the second full moon is called a “blue moon”. Over the next 20 years, there
will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare event. This fact has
led people to use the expression “once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in
their lives.
41. Which would be a good example of someone doing something “once in a blue moon”?
A. Mary likes to go to the mountains every weekend.
B. Tom rarely remembers to take out the trash.

C. Cindy hates washing the dishes.

D. Mary sometimes forgets to do homework.
42. When does a blue moon happen in nature?
A. When there are two full moons in a month.
B. When the moon has blue color.
C. When we can only see a small part of the moon.
D. When we cannot see the moon at all.
43. According to the passage, it can be understood that which of the following sentences
does not contain the expression?
A. Thomas has lost his mind
B. An apple a day keeps the doctor away
C. I’ll mow the grass after I finish my homework.
D. It’s never bad time to start something new
44. According to the passage, what is another example of something that has crescent shape?
A. your thumb B. a distant star


C. the letter “C” D. the letter “H”
45. The author states that “Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons.” This
means that over the next 20 year, a blue moon will happen ……
A. once a year B. less than once a year
C. more than once a year D. Not enough information is provided
II. Read then answer the questions.
Colds and flu are caused by viruses. The infections are contagious, passed on by tiny
droplets and hand contact. There are hundreds of different types of virus that can cause cold,
which explains why children get repeated colds. Flu is caused by the influenza virus. There
are three major types: A (often the cause of flu epidemics), B and C. The flu virus is
constantly changing its structure, so new strains appear each year. We don’t have immunity

to the new strains, which is why we can catch flu repeatedly. Anyone can catch a cold or flu.
The peak season for colds is the colder winter months, not only because of the weather but
because central heating dries out the normally moist nasal mucosa - an important defense



VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí
against invading viruses. However, you can catch a cold at any time of the year; one
particular type of cold virus thrives in the summer. Flu rarely occurs outside November to
February in the UK. A cold causes a stuffy or runny nose, sneezing, sore throat, cough, mild
fever and tiredness, lasting from two to four days. Flu is more severe with a high fever
(usually 39
o
C or above), chills, headache, intense muscle pains, exhaustion, loss of
appetites, cough and sometimes a blocked nose and sore throat. It may last a week or more
and possible complications include pneumonia. Most cold don’t last long and need no
specific treatment other than painkillers and simple measures such as decongestant rubs or
vaporizers. Antibiotics are of no benefit. Zinc supplements may help to settle a cold more
quickly. Children with flu can be given similar treatments, with lots of rest, medicine to
bring down any fever and plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration. Lowering the temperature
in the room can also be helpful when someone has a fever. Specific antiviral treatments for
flu are now available, but generally these are only given to those at high risk of flu
complications.

II. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer.
The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many
communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce
electricity.
Converting waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of
waste.
Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale
and coal tars.
But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway
to harness power with giant windmills. Geothermal power, heat from the earth, is also
being tested.
Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived
from streams
and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the
electricity used in
the United States, but today it supplies only four percent. The oceans are another
potential
source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean
currents, tides,
and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of the
temperature
differences in ocean water to produce energy.

MICROWAVING
Microwaving is a method of cooking where food is bombarded by microwaves,
usually
within an appliance called a microwave oven which excite the water, fat and
sugar
molecules, thereby heating (cooking) both the outside and center of the food at
the same
time. (1)…………………

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí
(A common myth is that a microwave oven cooks from the center of the food
outward. This
appears to happen because heat generated at the surface escapes more readily
from the
surface of the food into the surrounding air.) One advantage of microwaving is
that small
amounts of food can be heated very quickly, making it useful for reheating

The disadvantage is that food which is microwaved does not undergo some of
