Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer In recent years many countries of the world have been with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more various jobs lead to greater.

(53) productivity ? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the workers’life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then variety is not an important factor. Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important, and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it. Another very important consideration is how each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line, it would seem that not only is degree of the worker contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about. To what extent does more money to greater productivity ? The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money nor will shorter working hours be so important to them. 61. Which of the following is the best way to make workers work harder according to the author? a. Increasing their salary. b. Giving them more spare time. c. Making the work itself meaningful. d. Replacing large production lines with small ones. 62. The reason why a worker cannot have freedom in doing the job in his own way is that _____. a. the machinery is so complex that it should be fixed. b. the production lines are too large in modern factories. c. the bosses can create very little freedom of choices for workers. d. the machines must be operated strictly according to instructions and rules. 63. For a worker on an assembly line in a car factory, the job is not enjoyable because _____. a. he can only make a part of a car. b. he does not know what he is doing. c. his life in spare time is more interesting..

In 1986 Vietnam launched a political and economic renewal campaign (Doi Moi) that introduced (51) ______ intended to facilitate the transition from a centralized economy to a “socialist-oriented market economy” Doi Moi combined government planning with free-market (52) ______. The program abolished agricultural (53) ______, removed price controls on agricultural goods, and enabled farmers to sell their goods in the marketplace. It encourged the (54) _____ of private businesses and foreign investment, including foreign-owned enterprises. By the late 1990s, the success of the business and agricultural reforms ushered in under Doi Moi was (55) ______. More than 30,000 private businesses had been created, and the economy was growing (56) _____ an annual rate of more than 7 percent. From the early 1990s to 2005, (57) ______ declined from about 50 percent to 29 percent of the population. However, progress varied geographically, with most prosperity (58) _____ in urban areas, particularly in and around Ho Chi Minh City. In general, rural areas also made progress, as rural (59) _____living in poverty declined from 66 percent of the total in 1993 to 36 percent in 2002.

B.Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer The July 13, 2000, singing of the Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) between the U.S and Vietnam was a significant milestone for Vietnam’s economy. The BTA provided for Normal Trade Relations (NTR) status of Vietnamese goods in the.

(62) U.S market. Access to the U.S market will allow Vietnam to hasten its transformation into a manufacturing-based, exportoriented economy. It would also concomitantly attract foreign investment to Vietnam, not only from the U.S, but also from Europe, Asia, and other regions. On November 7, 2006, Vietnam became WTO’s 150th member, after 11 years of preparation, including 8 years of negotiation. Vietnam’s access to WTO should provide an important boost to Vietnam’s economy and should help to ensure the continuation of liberalizing reforms and create options for trade expansion. However, WTO accession also brings serious challengers, requiring Vietnam’s economic sectors to open the door to increased foreign competition. Although Vietnam’s economy, which continues to expand at an annual rate in excess of 7 percent, is one of the fastest growing in the world, the economy is growing from an extremely low base, reflecting the crippling effect of the Second Indochina War (1954-75) and repressive economic measures introduced in its aftermath. Whether rapid economic growth is sustainable is open to debate. The government may not be able to follow through with plans to scale back trade restrictions and reform state-owned enterprises. Reducing trade restrictions and improving transparency are keys to gaining full membership in the World Trade Organization (WTO), as hoped by mid-2006. The government plans to reform the stateowned sector by partially privatizing thousands of state-owned enterprises, including all five state-owned commercial banks. 61. The Bilateral Trade Agreement _____. a. boosted Vietnam’s exports to the United States. b. helped to improve the quality of Vietnamese goods. c. brought about a complete transformation in Vietnam’s economy. d. normalized the diplomate relations between two nations 62.

They were particular interested in measuring the relevance of research to the children’s own fears and fantasies: what aspects of the future were important to them, and what direction should scientisfic research take? To find answer to these questions, they work with 10- and 11-year-old children from ten schools located in rural and urban areas over the whole of Sweden. There were two main phrases to the project. First, all the children were asked to write an essay, and illutrate it, on the theme “The Future: 2000 AD”. Then the scientists went round to the different schools to talk to the children, basing their discussion on the general questions “What will the future be like?” and “What can we do to ensure that the future is as we want it to be?” A pattern soon emerged, showing that there was considerable agreement about which problems were important and how the problems should be dealt with. Pollution and the enviroment – this was the most important question for many of the children, and thay all agreed that we must do every thing on our power to clean up the mess we have made – factories, nuclear wastes, cars – and to make sure that we cause no further damage to our natural surroundings. Energy and power – We must cut down on use of fossil fuel and power , and find new natural ways of producing energy (wind, sun, water, and so on). Automation – Here it was agreed that computers and robots will play an increasingly important part in our lives. Man will become lazy, and the resulting unemployment will make things very difficult for us. However, many of the children were obviously excited by prospect of new machines that would perform routine tasks such as household chores..

(72) Violence and War – many children were frightened by threat of a third world war. There were several suggestions for putting an end to war, such as total disarmament and laws against research into weapons. The overall view of the world in the future was one of destruction, war, and natural or unnatural catastrophe. There was a strong feeling of pessimism and helplessness in the face of adult stupidity. Summing up the results of the project, one of its leaders, Per Stenson of Lulea Technical University, said, “We’ve obviously got to pay more attention to our children. After all, apart from being the scientists of the future, they are also the people who have got to live in the world we are creating.” 66. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? a.

When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also. They find a person with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears. In marriage we are looking for a partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes. If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs, movies, jokes, books and life in general. They basically have the same roots. In the case of a western man and foreign.

(102) woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from both spouses. On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other's country, culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting. On the other hand it can be very disappointing if there is the inability to understand your partner’s excitements and frustrations. For example, you are watching the television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up with. Maybe this artist was an idol for your parents and the music of this artist was often played in your house when you were a child. Unfortunately you realize that your wife is unable to understand your feelings because she has no idea who this artist is. Her eyes are absolutely empty because she has never even heard the song before. You feel rather disappointed! Remember that your wife has the same situation with you. You do not know her country's songs, her country's famous actors, her books. She has her own memories and in actuality, for her, everything is much more difficult than it is for you. At least, you live in your own country where everybody can understand you. She lives in completely strange surroundings, where she has nobody to share her feelings with, except you. Do some research and learn about your wife’s country, culture and lifestyles. Talk with her, ask her questions, get to know what songs she likes, what movies and books are of interest to her. The Internet will give you a great opportunity to find anything! Tell her about your country’s culture, let her listen to the music that you like, rent a movie for her that left you with great impression. Let her understand you better through the things that you like. Patience and time will help you to fight cultural differences. 36.A spouse should____________. a. let the partner do everything alone b. be not only a lover but also a friend c. not share the feelings with the partner d. not interfere with what the partner’s likes and dislikes 37.According to the passage____________. a. Spouses who have the same nationality need more patience and undrestanding in their marriage than those who are from different cultures. b. Spouses who are from different cultures need more patience and understanding in their marriage than those who have the same roots. c. Spouses who have the same roots do not share anything together. d. Spouses who are from different cultures can never share anything together. 38.If there is the inability to understand a spouse’s excitements and frustrations in the marriage, he or she may feel__________. c. faithful b. hopeless c. disappointed d. happy.

(107) IV. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer. The American education system requires that students complete 12 years of primary and secondary education prior to attending university or college. This may be accomplished either at public or government-operated schools, or at private schools. These 12 gears of schooling or their equivalent may also be completed outside the USA, thus giving foreign students the opportunity to pursue the benefits of the American education system and obtain a quality American education. Perhaps one of the most impressive facts is that a large number of presidents, prime ministers and leaders from other countries have experienced the American education system and graduated from a university or school in the USA. In many fields and industries, the American education system offers the most cutting-edge, sought-after programs at the world's best schools. That is why graduating from an accredited American school and being exposed to the rigors of the American education system is an investment in your future. Whether you want to study at a top USA university, a top USA college, a vocational or high school, a thorough understanding of how the American education system works is essential.
