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 from 29 to 36.

In modern times, we seem to be getting more separate from nature with each passing day. Most of us spend the
majority of our time indoors, typing away at computers and fiddling with digital devices. All the while, we are
destroying the planet’s natural beauty by cutting down forests and building cities in their place. In an effort to
preserve nature for future generations, national parks were created.

The primary function of national parks is conservation. In many cases, it is a matter of national pride for
countries to protect their indigenous species. Although several nations considered opening national parks, the US
was the first country to officially do so when Yellowstone Park opened in 1872. This designation made the federal
government responsible for taking care of the territory. Soon after, national parks started to open in Australia,
New Zealand, Europe, and eventually across the globe. Today, almost 100 countries have established their own
national parks. In total, there are over 6,500 worldwide.

Despite differences in names, location, and rules, most natural parks have certain traits in common. For one,
they are usually open to visitors throughout the year. Those who come to the park can take part in a wide scope of

outdoor activities including hiking, camping, cycling, bird watching, and fishing. Other options may include
horseback riding, rafting, or scuba diving if the territory is suitable. In most places, visitors are encouraged not to
feed the animals. The purpose for this law is twofold: to protect the animals as well as those who might feed them.
Animals also have strict dietary needs, so feeding them exotic foods could make them sick. Feeding wild animals
could also cause them to aggressively pester humans they encounter in the future for food. However, as long as
you follow the rules, you are assured of having a great time at whichever national park you visit.

Câu 29: What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?

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 from 37 to 43.

The human criterion for perfect vision is 20/20 for reading the standard lines on a Snellen eye chart without a 
hitch. The score is determined by how well you read lines of letters of different sizes from 20 feet away. But 
being able to read the bottom line on the eye chart does not approximate perfection as far as other species are
concerned. Most birds would consider us very visually handicapped. The hawk, for instance, has such sharp eyes
that it can spot a dime on the sidewalk while perched on top of the Empire State Building. It can make fine visual
distinctions because it is blessed with one million cones per square millimeter in its retina. And in water, humans
are farsighted, while the kingfisher, swooping down to spear fish, can see well in both the air and water because it
is endowed with two foveae – areas of the eye, consisting mostly of cones, that provide visual distinctions. One 
foveae permits the bird, while in the air, to scan the water below with one eye at a time. This is called monocular
vision. Once it hits the water, the other fovea joins in, allowing the kingfisher to focus both eyes, like binoculars,

on its prey at the same time. A frog’s vision is distinguished by its ability to perceive things as a constant motion
picture. Known as “bug detectors”, a highly developed set of cells in a frog’s eyes responds mainly to moving
objects. So, it is said that a frog sitting in a field of dead bugs wouldn’t see them as food and would starve.
