Thomas A. Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11th, 1847. His family moved to Port Huron,
Michigan, when he was seven years old. Surprisingly, he attended school for only two months. His
mother, a former teacher, taught him a few things, but Thomas was mostly self-educated. His natural
curiosity led him to start experimenting at a young age.
Thomas Alve Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Although the electric light
seems to be the most useful, it was not his only invention. He also invented the record player, the
motion picture camera, and over 1,200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new.
He worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes he worked so intensely that his wife had reminded

him to sleep and eat.
Thomas Edison died at the age of 84 on October 18th , 1931, at his estate in West Orange, New Jersey.

Hướng dẫn dịch
Thomas A. Edison sinh ra ở Milan, Ohio, vào ngày 11 tháng 2 năm 1847. Gia đình ơng chuyển đến
Port Huron, Michigan, khi ơng được bảy tuổi. Điều đáng ngạc nhiên là ông chỉ đi học được hai tháng.
Mẹ ông, một cựu giáo viên, đã dạy ông một số điều, nhưng Thomas chủ yếu là tự học. Sự tị mị bẩm
sinh đã khiến ơng bắt đầu thử nghiệm khi còn nhỏ.
Thomas Alve Edison đã thắp sáng thế giới với phát minh ra đèn điện. Mặc dù đèn điện có vẻ là hữu ích
nhất, nhưng nó khơng phải là phát minh duy nhất của ơng. Ơng cũng phát minh ra máy ghi âm, máy
ảnh chuyển động và hơn 1.200 thứ khác. Khoảng hai tuần một lần, ông ấy tạo ra một cái gì đó mới.
Ơng ấy đã làm việc 16 trên 24 giờ. Đôi khi ông làm việc căng thẳng đến mức vợ ông phải nhắc nhở
ông ăn ngủ.

Thomas Edison qua đời ở tuổi 84 vào ngày 18 tháng 10 năm 1931, tại khu đất của ông ở West Orange,
New Jersey. Ông đã để lại rất nhiều phát minh giúp cải thiện chất lượng cuộc sống trên toàn thế giới.

C. READING
Read the passage, then answer the questions below (2.5pts)
Are you looking for a cheap, clean, effective source of power that doesn't cause pollution or waste
natural resources? Look no further than solar energy from the Sun.
At present, most of our electricity comes from the use of coal and gas, oid or nuclear power. This
power could be provided by the Sun. One percent of the solar energy that reaches the Earth is enough
to provide power for the total population.
Many countries are already using solar energy. Solar panels are placed on the roofs of a house and the
Sun's energy is used to heat water. The energy can be stored for a number of days, so on cloudy days
you can use solar energy, too.
Sweden has an advanced solar energy program. There, all buildings will be heated by solar energy and
cars will use solar power instead of gas by the year 2015.
Questions:
1. Is solar energy an efficient source of power?
2. Where are the solar panels placed?
3. How long can the solar energy be stored?
4. When will cars use solar power instead of gas in Sweden?
5. Is the solar energy used in Vietnam now?

Read the paragraphs below and give the answer True/false
Japanese people are famous for their well-balanced and healthy diet. That is the main reason for their
longevity.
A. Typically, a Japanese meal consists of rice, miso soup, the main dish(es) and pickles. Rice is the
staple and plays a central part in people's eating habits. Japanese rice is sticky and nutritious, so when
combined with the main dishes and the soup, they make a complete meal. The portions of each dish are
individually served.
B.The most important characteristic of their eating habits is they like raw food and do not use sauces
with a strong flavour. Two typical examples are sashimi and sushi. The Japanese make sashimi simply
by cutting fresh fish. Then they serve it with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce and spicy Japanese
horseradish (wasabi). Sushi is similar. The cooked, vinegared rice can be combined with raw fish,
prawn, avocado, cucumber or egg. Sushi is usually served with soy sauce and pickled ginger.
C. It is said that the Japanese eat with their eyes. Therefore, the arrangement of dishes is another
significant feature of their eating habits. If you join a Japanese meal, you may be excited to see how
the colourful dishes are arranged according to a traditional pattern. In addition, there are plates and
bowls of different sizes and designs. They are carefully presented to match the food they carry.

Son Doong cave has become more famous after the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) aired a
live programme featuring its magnificence on " Good Morning America" in May 2015.
Located in Quang Binh Province, Son Doong Cave was discovered by a local man named Ho Khanh in
1991, and became known internationally in 2009 thanks to British cavers, led by Howard Limbert. The
cave was formed about 2 to 5 million years ago by river water eroding away the limestone underneath
the mountain. It contains some of the tallest known stalagmites in the world - up to 70 metres tall.The
cave is more than 200 metres wide, 150 metres high, and nearly 9 kilometres long, with caverns big
15


enough to fit an entire street inside them. Son Doong Cave is recognised as the largest cave in the
world by BCRA (British Cave Research Association) and selected as one of the most beautiful on earth
by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation).
In August 2013, the first tourist group explored the cave on a guided tour. Permits are now required to
access the cave and are made available on a limited basis. Only 500 permits were issued for the 2015
season, which runs from February to August. After August, heavy rains cause river levels to rise and
make

the
cave
largely
inaccessible.

How are you? I'm having so much fun here at English Camp. It's a pity you can't join us. It's my third
day here and I wish the camp would last a month!!!
On the first day, we put up the tents. They held a tent competition, and although we tried our best, our
team was only the runner-up. Guess what? I met Nam, our classmate, but we couldn't talk much
because he was in another team.
Before lunch we played some team building games. It was exciting! In the afternoon we went fishing.

Hung, a student from Luna School, is a really good angler. He caught ten fish while I caught none.
However, we let them all go.
The second day, when we had a cooking competition, was also awesome. We had to draw lots to
choose the dish we would cook. Hung did ours and we were asked to make sushi. Hung and I didn't
know how to make it, but lucky us - we had Chie in our team! She's a student who comes from Tokyo
and has lots of experience making sushi. Our sushi won the first prize! It's great that Chie taught us
how to make this healthy dish.
Today there's an English speaking contest on how to learn English successfully for non-native English
speaking students. Hung's giving a presentation on his top tips for learning English.
I must go now. Chie and Hung are calling me. Until next time,
1. Mi's team wasn't the winner of the tent competition..................
2. Mi is the only student from her class to join the camp..................
3. They played some team building games after lunch.................
4. Hung is a better angler than Mi.................
5. They kept some fish and let others go...................
