Halloween is one of the most famous holidays in the U.S, and it is on October 31. People carve
pumpkins and make funny faces on them. These are called “Jack-O-Lantern”. On October 31,
children wear a special costume such a witch, ghost, or clown. They go to many houses and they
knock on the door saying, “Trick or Treat!” It means that of people don’t give them a treat, they will
play some kind of trick on the household. So, usually people give candy to them.
I carved my first Halloween pumpkin at my Friendship Family’s house. First, I cut open the top
of the pumpkin and pulled the seeds out. It was not good for me because it was sticky and smelled
bad. I had never carved a pumpkin, so it was interesting for me. Next, I carved the eyes and the
mouth. I wanted to make a face like a pirate. When I finished making the face, I put a candle inside. It
was very beautiful, so I was happy.

it. I think Halloween is an interesting American holiday which involves all family members and

Read the following passage and mark the letter A,B,C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct word and phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 31 to 35.
WAYS OF SOCIALIZING
To attract someone’s attention so that we (31)…….. speak to that person, we can use either verbal or
non-verbal forms of communication. Let us look at non-verbal communication in English. Probably
the (32)…….. common way of attracting someone’s attention is by waving. For example, if we are at

a noisy party and see a friend come in the door about 20 metres away, we might raise our hand and
wave to her as a signal that we see her.
But how hard can we wave in a situation like this? Suppose you are (33)… …. the airport, and you see
your brother get off the plane and begin walking toward you. If you are excited, you might jump up
and down and wave as hard as you can …(34)…… his attention. This is the instance where big,
obvious non-verbal signals are appropriate.
There are, however, some social situations where smaller non-verbal signals are more appropriate. In a
restaurant, for example, if we want to attract the (35)………….of our waiter, we have several choices.
We can wait until he passes near us, catch his eye, and nod slightly to let him know we would like him


Giaovienvietnam.com
(36)….…… to our table. Or we can raise our hand slightly to show that we need assistance. We do not
whistle or clap our hands to get the person’s attention. That is considered impolite and even rude.
In most social situations where some informality ……… allowed, a brief raise of the hand and a small
wave is fine. For instance, if you are walking across the schoolyard and see your teacher approaching
you, a small friendly wave to attract his or her attention is appropriate.
Once you’ve got your friend’s attention, you shouldn’t point at the person or thing you want her to
look at. A slight nod will do. Pointing at someone is usually (35)………….. rude. Of course, there are
times when pointing is (39)……….. acceptable, such as when a teacher wants to get someone’s
attention in class. The teacher often points (40)……. the student and says, “David, would you read the
next sentence, please?” Pointing here is not impolite; it’s simply a way to get someone’s attention.

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 numbered blanks from 36 to 42.
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 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


Giaovienvietnam.com
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.
41. A spouse should ________.

B. be not only a lover but also a friend

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 numbered blanks from 43 to 50.
The principle of use and disuse states that those parts of organisms’ bodies that are used grown

larger. Those parts that are not tend to wither away. It is an observed fact that when you exercise
particular muscles, they grow. Those that are never used diminish. By examining a man's body, we can
tell which muscles he uses and which he doesn't. We may even be able to guess his profession or his
reaction. Enthusiasts of the "body- building" cult make use of the principle of use and disuse to
"build" their bodies, almost like a piece of sculpture, into whatever unnatural shape is demanded by
fashion in this peculiar minority culture. Muscles are not the only parts of the body that respond to use
in this kind of way. Walk barefoot and you acquire harder skin on your soles. It is easy to tell a farmer
from a bank teller by looking at their hands alone. The farmer's hands are horny, hardened by long
exposure to rough work. The teller's hands are relatively soft.
The principle of use and disuse enables animals to become better at the job of surviving in their
world, progressively better during their lifetime as a result of living in that world. Humans, through
direct exposure to sunlight, or lack of it, develop a skin color which equips them better to survive in
the particular local conditions.
Too much sunlight is dangerous. Enthusiastic sunbathers with very fair skins are susceptible to
skin cancer. Too little sunlight, on the other hand, leads to vitamin-D deficiency and rickets. The
brown pigment melanin which is synthesized under the influence of sunlight, makes a screen to
protect the underlying tissues from the harmful effects of further sunlight. If a suntanned person
moves to a less sunny climate, the melanin disappears, and the body is able to benefit from what little
sun there is. This can be represented as an instance of the principle of use and disuse: skin goes brown
when it is "used", and fades to white when it is not.
Question 46:What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. How the principles of use and disuse change people's concepts of themselves.
B. The changes that occur according to the principle of use and disuse.
C. The way in which people change themselves to conform to fashion.

D. The effects of the sun on the principle of use and disuse.

Question 48:According to the passage, men who body build____.
A. appear like sculptures

B. change their appearance

C. belong to strange cults

D. are very fashionable

Question 49:From the passage, it can be inferred that author views body building____.
A. with enthusiasm B. as an artistic from

C. with scientific interest

D. of doubtful

benefit
Question 50:The word "horny" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to____.

Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question from question 39 to 45:
Insects' lives are very short and they have many enemies, but they must survive long enough to
breed and perpetuate their kind. The less insect-like they look, the better their chance of survival. To look
"inedible" by resembling or imitating plants is a deception widely practiced by insects. Mammals rarely
use this type of camouflage, but many fish and invertebrates do.
The stick caterpillar is well named. It is hardly distinguishable from a brown or green twig. This
caterpillar is quite common and can be found almost anywhere in North America. It is also called
"measuring worm" or "inchworm." It walks by arching its body, than stretching out and grasping the
branch with its front feet then looping its body again to bring the hind feet forward. When danger
threatens, the stick caterpillar stretches its body away from the branch at an angle and remains rigid and
still, like a twig, until the danger has passed.

Walking sticks, or stick insects, do not have to assume a rigid, twig-like pose to find protection;
they look like inedible twigs in any position. There are many kinds of walking sticks, ranging in size
form the few inches of the North American variety to some tropical species that may be over a foot long.
When at rest their front legs are stretched out. heightening their camouflage. Some of the tropical species
are adorned with spines or ridges. imitating the thorny bushes or trees in which they live.
Leaves also seem to be a favorite object for insects to imitate. Many butterflies can suddenly
disappear from view by folding their wings and sitting quietly among the foliage that they resemble.
