KỲ THI TỐT NGHIỆP TRUNG HỌC PHỔ THÔNG NĂM 2020 Bài thi: Ngoại ngữ; Môn thi: TIẾNG ANH Thời gian: 60 phút (không kể thời gian phát đề). Họ và tên:………………………………….SBD:……………..... Mã đề 803. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 1 to 5. It used to be that people would drink coffee or tea in the morning to pick them up and get them going for the day. Then cola drinks hit the market. With lots of caffeine and sugar, these beverages soon became the pick-me-up of choice for many adults and teenagers. Now drink companies are putting out so-called “energy drinks”. These beverages have the specific aim of giving tired consumers more energy. One example of a popular energy drink is Red Bull. The company that puts out this beverage has stated in interviews that Red Bull is not a thirst quencher. Nor is it meant to be a fluid replacement drink for athletes. Instead, the beverage is meant to revitalize a tired consumer's body and mind. In order to do this, the makers of Red Bull, and other energy drinks, typically add vitamins and certain chemicals to their beverages. The added chemicals are like chemicals that the body naturally produces for energy. The vitamins, chemicals, caffeine, and sugar found in these beverages all seem like a sure bet to give a person energy. Health professionals are not so sure, though. For one thing, there is not enough evidence to show that all of the vitamins added to energy drinks actually raise a person's energy level. Another problem is that there are so many things in the beverages. Nobody knows for sure how all of the ingredients in energy drinks work together. Dr. Brent Bauer, one of the directors at the Mayo Clinic in the US, cautions people about believing all the claims energy drinks make. He says, “It is plausible if you put all these things together, you will get a good result.” However, Dr. Bauer adds the mix of ingredients could also have a negative impact on the body. “We just don't know at this point,” he says. (Adapted from Reading Challenge 2). Question 1. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Red Bull is the best energy drink. B. Teenagers should not choose energy drinks. C.

Scientists have identified two ways in which species disappear. The first is through ordinary or “background” extinctions, where species that fail to adapt are slowly replaced by more adaptable life forms. The second is when large numbers of species go to the wall in relatively short periods of biological time. There have been five such extinctions, each provoked by cataclysmic evolutionary events caused by some geological eruption, climate shift, or space junk slamming into the Earth. Scientists now believe that another mass extinction of species is currently underway – and this time human fingerprints are on the trigger. How are we doing it? Simply by demanding more and more space for ourselves. In our assault on the ecosystems around us we have used a number of tools, from spear and gun to bulldozer and chainsaw. Certain especially rich ecosystems have proved the most vulnerable. In Hawaii, more than half of the native birds are now gone – some 50 species. Such carnage has taken place all across the island communities of the Pacific and Indian oceans. While many species were hunted to extinction, others simply succumbed to the “ introduced predators’ that humans brought with them: the cat, the dog, the pig, and the rat. Today the tempo of extinction is picking up speed. Hunting is no longer the major culprit, although rare birds and animals continue to be butchered for their skin, feathers, tusks, and internal organs, or taken as savage pets. Today the main threat comes from the destruction of the habitat of wild plants, animals, and Trang 3/5 - Mã đề 803 DeThi.edu.vn.

Overfishing and the destruction of fragile coral reefs destroy ocean biodiversity. Deforestation is taking a staggering toll, particularly in the tropics where the most global biodiversity is at risk. The shrinking rainforest cover of the Congo and Amazon river basins and such places as Borneo and Madagascar have a wealth of species per hectare existing nowhere else. As those precious hectares are drowned or turned into arid pasture and cropland, such species disappear forever. (Adapted from Final Countdown Practice Tests by D.F Piniaris, Heinle Cengage Learning, 2010 ). Question 37. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The tempo of extinction of species today B.

Most parents want their sons and daughters to have equal chances of success when they grow up. Today, equality of the sexes is largely mandated by public policy and law. However, old-fashioned ideas and a lot of prejudice are still part of our culture and present challenging questions for parents. Gender stereotypes are rigid ideas about how boys and girls should behave. We all know what these stereotypes are: A "feminine" girls should be insecure, accommodating and a little illogical in her thinking. A "masculine" boy should be strong, unemotional, aggressive, and competitive. How are children exposed to these stereotypes? According to the researchers David and Myra Sadker of the American University of Washington, Trang 1/5 - Mã đề 804 DeThi.edu.vn.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(12)</span> D.C., boys and girls are often treated differently in the classroom. They found out that when boys speak, teachers usually offer constructive comments, when girls speech, teachers tend to focus on the behavior. It's more important how the girls act rather than what they say. The emphasis on differences begins at birth and continues throughout childhood. For example, few people would give pink baby's clothes to a boy or a blue blanket to a girl. Later, many of us give girls dolls and miniature kitchenware, while boys receive action figures and construction sets. There's nothing wrong with that. The problem arises when certain activities are deemed appropriate for one sex but not the other. According to Heather J. Nicholson, Ph.D., director of the National Resource Center for Girls, Inc., this kind of practice prevents boys and girls from acquiring important skills for their future lives. "The fact is," says Nicholson, "that society functions as a kind of sorting machine regarding gender. In a recent survey, fifty-eight percent of eighth-grade girls but only six percent of boys earned money caring for younger children. On the other hand, twenty-seven percent of boys but only three percent of girls earned money doing lawn work". If we are serious about educating a generation to be good workers and parents, we need to eliminate such stereotypes as those mentioned previously. Gender stereotypes inevitably are passed to our children. However, by becoming aware of the messages our children receive, we can help them develop ways to overcome these incorrect ideas. To counteract these ideas, parents can look for ways to challenge and support their children, and to encourage confidence in ways that go beyond what society's fixed ideas about differences of sext are.

Different prejudice about how girls and boys should behave and be treated. C. Deep-seated stereotypes about genders and their effects. D. The role of culture in the behavior of different genders. Question 8. According to the second paragraph, David and Myra Sadker of the American University of Washington, D.C found that ______. A. boys are commented usefully whereas girls are paid attention to behavior. B. girls are taught to be insecure, accommodating and illogical while boys are strong, unemotional, aggressive, and competitive. C. teachers often concentrate on boys' behavior and girls' manners. D. schoolboys and schoolgirls are treated equally in the classroom. Question 9. What does the word "that" in paragraph 3 refer to? A. People often give pink clothes to a boy and a blue blanket to a girl. B. Many people give girls dolls and miniature kitchen and boys receive action figures and construction sets when they were born. C. People give different genders of children distinct kinds of presents or clothes. D. The differences between boys and girls begin at birth and continue throughout childhood. Question 10.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(14)</span> Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 34 to 38. For many American university students, the weeklong spring break holiday means an endless party on a sunny beach in Florida or Mexico. In Panama City Beach, Florida, a city with a permanent population of around 36,000, more than half a million university students arrive during the month of March to play and party, making it the number one spring break destination in the United States. A weeklong drinking binge is not for anyone, however, and a growing number of American university students have found a way to make spring break matter. For them, joining or leading a group of volunteers to travel locally or internationally and work to show problems such as poverty, homelessness, or environmental damage makes spring break a unique learning experience that university students can feel good about. Students who participate in alternative spring break projects find them very rewarding. While most university students have to get their degrees before they can start helping people, student volunteers are able to help people now. On the other hand, the accommodations are far from glamorous. Students often sleep on the floor of a school or spend the week camping in tents. But students only pay around $250 for meals and transportation, which is much less than some of their peers spend to travel to more traditional spring break hotspots. Alternative spring break trips appear to be growing in popularity at universities across the United States. Students cite a number of reasons for participating. Some appreciate the opportunity to socialize and meet new friends. Others want to exercise their beliefs about people’s obligation to serve humanity and make the world a better place. Whatever their reason, these students have discovered something that gives them rich rewards along with a break from schoolwork. (Adapted from Active skills for reading). Question 34.

Many students believe that math is an inherited ability – either they have the math gene or they don’t. However, a recent research shows that inborn talent might not be as important as we think. In the long run, the most successful students are often those who work the hardest, not those with the highest IQs. These students believe that perseverance, not an innate gift, is the key to achievement. In her book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, Carol Dweck argues that a positive mindset is what makes some students push themselves when others give up. Students with a “fixed mindset” believe that they were born with a certain set of talents. They see challenges as a sign that they’ve reached the limit of their natural ability, and they stop trying. On the contrary, students with a “growth mindset” believe that there are no limits on their potential, and view challenges as a chance to learn and improve. They know that their Trang 3/4 - Mã đề 901 DeThi.edu.vn.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(19)</span> intelligence can be built through experience and effort, and are not held back by the idea of inborn restrictions. Geoff Colvin delivers a similar message in his book, Talent Is Overrated. He demonstrates that success is almost always the result of what he calls “deliberate practice”, concentrated effort to improve one’s skills through focused effort. Inborn talent might make a difference when a subject is first tackled, but years later, it’s the hard-working children who are the most successful. Kim Callan – a math teacher – agrees: “It is rare for a hard-working student to fail in my class.” Having the right mindset is critical to success. Children need to believe in their ability to overcome challenges through concentrated effort. If you place your child in the right math class and encourage him/ her to work hard, there’s no limit to what he/she will be able to accomplish. (Adapted from TOELF Junior Reading). Question 39. Which of the following best describes the main idea of this article? A. Important factors to be successful in math B. How to know whether a child’s talent is inborn or acquired C. How to help children control their states of mind D. Parents’ important role in their children’s learning Question 40. In the first paragraph, the words “these students” refer to ______.

As mentioned in paragraph 3, inborn talent might work ______. A. when students have finished learning a subject B. when students start to learn a subject C. when a subject is hard to learn D. when it takes a long time to learn a subject Question 43. What is the point of Kim Callan – the math teacher? A. All of the hard-working students failed in his math class. B. Lots of the hard-working students failed in his math class. C. Some of the hard-working students failed in his math class. D. Almost none of the hard-working students failed in his math class. Question 44. What is probably TRUE about this article? A.

Recently fans of top soaps, dramas and reality shows in the USA have started to get angry about the number and frequency of the adverts in the middle of the programmes. Sometimes it seems that the adverts are more important than the programmes themselves. For example, American dramas aren't as long as they were in the past. Nowadays in the US, an ‘hour-long’ drama lasts about 40 minutes, whereas in the 1980s the programmes lasted 48 minutes. The rest is adverts. The ABC channel had slightly more adverts than other channels. But recently they've changed, which is even worse than before! Before, all their dramas had four sections. But now its producers separate each programme into six sections. Usually the first section is approximately ten minutes long. Then they have the first break. When people have watched a programme for ten minutes, it’s much less probable that they will stop watching or change channels. But then, in the next 45 minutes, there are four more commercial breaks. Each break is about three and a half minutes long. All of this makes it much more difficult for dramas’ writers to write good stories. Quiet scenes make no impact because there are more and more adverts which are longer and longer. 'It's OK for game shows or more exciting adventure series.' says American TV producer David Kelley. ‘But for programmes that don’t Trang 4/5 - Mã đề 901 DeThi.edu.vn.

<span class='text_page_counter'>(20)</span> depend on violence or melodramatic scenes, it's more difficult to make a story with six sections. The only thing you can do is be more aggressive, either with the music or the visual impact, just to attract people's attention after the adverts.’ (Adapted from Gateway B1). Question 46. Which could be the best title of the passage? A. Adverts turn TV viewers off. B. TV commercials are no longer in favour. C. Commercial breaks increase productivity. D. Modern advertising is an advantage. Question 47. The phrase “the programmes” in paragraph 1 refers to ______. A. American dramas B. the adverts C. the ABC channels D. reality shows Question 48. The word “probable” in paragraph 2 mostly means ______. A. very difficult to deal with B. likely to happen C. causing worry D. unable to believe Question 49. According to the passage, previously all of the ABC channel’s dramas ______. A. had six segments B. consisted of 4 parts C. were divided into 5 separate parts D. lasted 40 minutes Question 50. Which of the following is TRUE about game shows as stated in the passage? A. They rely neither on violence nor melodramatic scenes. B. It is possible to make them as six-part programmes. C. Quiet scenes in game shows are important factors in attracting people’s attention. D. They attract TV viewers by adverts lasting for three minutes. ------------- THE END -------------.
