(4) When I was in high school, there was a girl whom I disliked. I don’t know why I dislike her. She had always been friendly towards me, and had never done anything to cause me to feel the same way I did about her. I was continually saying unpleasant things to her, making fun of her, snubbing her. One day as I was going home from school, the girl caught up with me and told me that our teacher wanted me to come back for a while.I did not belive her and walked on down the street, leaving the girl standing alone. The next day when I got to school, our teacher asked me: “Why didn’t you come back to the school as I asked you to ?” I said: “I didn’t know you wanted me ?”. The teacher sent for the girl and asked her: “ Did you tell Rose to come back ?” The girl answered, “I’m sorry, but I didn’t tell her; I couldn’t catch up with her”. I was surprised and suddenly realized how pretty she was. I felt I ought to be ashamed of myself and I found out all my faulst in comparison with her liberality. 1. Why did the writer dislike the girl ? A. Because the girl dislike her. B. Because the girl was not friendly to her. C. Because the writer didn’t feel comefortable with her. D.

Because she thought the teacher would get angry if she told him the truth. D. To help the writer avoid the teacher’s punishment Task 4: Friendship is a big statement. Lots of people are lovers but are not friends. Lots of people are relatives and are not friends. Lots of people who work together are not friends. You can appreciate or admire someone, but that doesn’t not mean that you make him or her a friend. When I had my near-death illness last year and the following long recuperation. I had a lot of time to think about what makes someone a friend. If they are scared of you when you need help, sorry, that is not frindship. If their attitude is “for better or worse”, if they stick to you through troubles and difficulties, it is the time when you can tell it is true friendship. I do have some friends, but not as many as I thought. And there was a time, in the late 80s when my friend, Ken, really needed me but I didn’t come through for him. I remember hanging out in my happy suburban house in Menlo Park, and not coming to help him through the loss of his wife. Luckily, I got to apologize for that but Ken said he did not mind. I don’t have a tidy answer about Ken and me and friendship. Sometimes we were friends, and other times, clearly not. But I guess there is something remarkable in two people overcoming the barriers to friendship to find some real communication at some point. 1. According to the writer ____________.

(11) Last year I went to Nepal for three months to work in a hospital. I think it's important to see as much of a country as you can, but it is difficult to travel around Nepal. The hospital let me have a few days’ holiday, so I decided to go into the jungle and I asked a Nepalese guide, Kamal Rai, to go with me. We started preparing for the trip at six in the morning, and left camp with two elephants carrying our equipment. It was hot but Kamal made me wear shoes and trousers to protect me from snakes. In the jungle there was a lot of wildlife, but we were trying to find big cats, especially tigers. We climbed onto the elephants' backs to get better view, but it is unusual to find tigers in the afternoon because they sleep in the heat of the day. Then, in the distance, we saw a tiger, and Kamal told me to be very quiet. We crept nearer and found a dead deer, still bleeding. This was the tiger's lunch! Suddenly I started to feel very frightened. We heard the tiger a second before we saw it. It jumped out like a flash of lightning, five hundred kilos plus and four meters long. I looked into its eyes and face, and saw right down the animal's throat. It grabbed Kamal's leg between its teeth, but I managed to pull Kamal away. One of our elephants ran at the tiger and made it go back into the grass, so we quickly escaped to let the tiger eat its lunch. That night it was impossible to sleep! 1.The writer went to Nepal ________. a. for holiday b. for treatment c. for business d. on tour When having a few days off, he decided to go into ________. a. the remote villages b. the mountains c. the seaside d. the tropical forest 2.It's difficult to find tigers in the afternoon because ________. they usually sleep at this time of day it's so hot at this time the elephants' back wasn't high enough to get view tigers hardly hunt in the heat of the day 3.The writer started to feel frightened when ________. a. he saw a tiger b. he saw the tiger's lunch c. he scrept nearer d. he found a deer 4.The tiger ________. a. was like a flash of light b. saw them a second before they saw it c. jumped out very fast d. jumped out of the grass at about four meters. 5.Which of the followings is not true according to the passage?

In such a case, you are supposed to move some food from the shared plates onto your own plate by yourself, using the opposite end of your chopsticks (if you have used them already) or with special chopsticks that may be provided for that purpose. Some Table Rules  Blowing your nose in public, and especially at the table, is considered a bad manner.  It is considered good manner to empty your dishes to the last grain of rice.  Talking about toilet related and similarly disappetizing topics during or before a meal is not appreciated by most people.  Unlike in some other parts of East Asia, it is considered bad manner to burp.  After finishing eating, try to place all your dishes in the same way as they were at the start of the meal. This includes replacing the lid of dishes which came with a lid and replacing your chopsticks on the chopstick holder or into their paper slip, if applicable. Drinking Rules:  When drinking alcoholic beverages, it is a Japanese custom to serve each other, rather than pouring the beverage into one’s own glass.

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer. Your mind's ability to bring back experiences you have had is your memory. There are two kinds of remembering, recall and recognition. For instance, you may not be able to recall the poem you read yesterday in class, but if you see it again, you will know it instantly because you recognize it. Some few people have 'total recall,' often spoken of as photographic memory. A person with total recall can recite a whole page of a book he has read only once, or playa musical composition after hearing it once. This is very unusual, however, and most people have difficulty in remembering even names they heard the day before. This is not because most people lack the ability to remember, but because they had not paid much attention to what they heard. They felt no personal reasons to remember. Having a personal reason for remembering is one of the most important factors in a good memory. When you have a strong reason for remembering, concentrate as you read or listen, and try to connect the new information to things you I already know. A detail is easy to remember when it fits into a whole that makes sense. If you understand the entire history lesson before you try to remember any particular dates, your memory may surprise you. 71. While not directly stated, it may be inferred from the article that ________. a. details are more easily remembered by fitting them into a whole b. recall and recognition are the same thing c. wanting to do a thing is very important to being able to do it d. if he will try hard enough, one man can remember as well as Mother 72. This article as a whole tells us about ________. a. people who can remember whole pages c. our memory and how to improve it b. recognition and recall d. people who can't remember names 73. A person with photographic memory is ________. a. can only remember things if he looks at a photograph c. can be found in mental hospitals b. brings his camera everywhere he goes d. can remember every detail of what he sees or hears 74. One way to improve our memory is ________ a. to ask other people to repeat something you want to remember. b. to have a camera with you all the time c. to concentrate on what you hear or read d. to learn everything by heart 75. Which sentence is not true? a. If you can't remember things, you have no memory. b. Recognition and recall are the two kinds of memory. c. Total recall is remembering something in its entirely. d. A person can remember anything better if he has a strong reason for doing it. VII. Choose the answer (a, b, c or d) that is nearest in meaning to the printed before it. 76. It's no use trying to make friends with him. a. You should try to make friends with him. c. There's no point in trying to make a friendship with him. d. Making a friendship with him is worthless. b. I find it difficult to make friends with him. 77. As soon as he arrived at the airport, he called home. a. No sooner had he arrived at the airport, he called home. b. He arrived at the airport sooner than he had expected. c. Calling home, he said that he had arrived the airport. d. Immediately after he called home, he arrived the airport. 78.

(38) Completing a marathon is considered very difficult, but many coaches believe that it is possible for anyone who is willing to put in the time and effort. Obviously, most participants don’t run a marathon to win. More important for most runners is their personal finish time and their placement within their specific age group and gender. Another very important goal is to break certain time barriers. For example, ambitious recreational firsttimers often try to run the marathon under 4 hours, more competitive runners will attempt to run under 3 hours. Many runners then prefer to finish for example in 3:29:59, which makes them “sub-3:30h marathoners”, instead of 3:30:01. For most runners, the marathon is the longest run they have ever attempted. Many coaches believe that the most important element in marathon training is the long run. Recreational runners commonly try to reach a maximum of about 20 miles in their longest weekly run and about 40 miles a week in total when training for the marathon. More experienced marathoners may run a longer distance. During marathon training, adequate recovery times is crucial. If fatigue or pain is felt, it is recommended to take a break for a couple of days or more to let the body heal. Overtraining is a condition that results from not getting enough rest to allow the body to recover from difficult training. It can actually result in a lower endurance and speed and place a runner at a greater risk of injury. 1. A marathon completion is ______________.

READING Read the passage and choose one correct answer for each question. The nuclear family, consisting of a mother, father, and their children may be more an American ideal than an American reality. Of course, the so-called traditional American family was always more varied than we had been led to believe, reflecting the very different racial, ethnic, class, and religious customs among different American groups. The most recent government statistics reveal that only about one third of all current American families fit the traditional mold and another third consists of married couples who either have no children or have none still living at home. Of the final one third, about 20 percent of the total number of American households is single people, usually women over sixty-five years of age.

Thomas Malthus, an English economist, developed a theory that became widely accepted in the nineteenth century. He suggested that because world population tended to increase more rapidly than the food supply, a continual strain was exerted upon available resources. Malthus cited wars, famines, epidemics, and other diseases as the usual limitations of population growth. With recent advances in science and technology, including improved agricultural methods and great strides in medicine, some of the limiting factors in population growth have been lessened, with obvious results. International organizations have put forward several recommendations to alleviate the problem of overpopulation, including an increase in food production, general economic development in target areas, and a decrease in birth rate. Most experts agree that it will be necessary to combine all three recommendations in an effort to affect a lasting solution. 41.

Certain items deemed to be bought or made are banh chung, dried watermelon seeds, tea, dried sausages, fruit (fresh and candied), ornamental plants and flowers.

Children receive their Ii xi (or red envelopes with lucky money inside). People make a visit to family members, neighbors, and close friends.

One of the most urgent environment problems in the world today is the shortage of clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. But acid rain, industrial pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes and even entire seas have become large pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is one of largest lake in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. But they are being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial pollutants which pour into the lake everyday. Even where law existed, the government did not have the power to enforce them. Most industries simply ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world's water surface. But it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost sixteen countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles off shore. Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean water in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution and sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect this precious source. We should do something now. Câu 24: What is a serious problem of Lake Baikal in Russia? A It contains a rich variety of animals and plants. B It is polluted by massive volumes of industrial wastes discharged into it. C It has 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. D The government did not have the power to enforce laws and regulations. Câu 25: Many sources of water are not drinkable because of________________________.

Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question Chinese New Year or Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is an important holiday in East Asia. The festival proper begins on the first day of the first lunar month in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called the Lantern festival. Chinese New Year's Eve is known as Chúxì. Chu literally means "change" and xi means "Eve". Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese' New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had a strong influence on the New Year celebrations of its neighbours. These include Koreans, Mongolians, Nepalese, Bhutanese, Vietnamese, and formerly the Japanese before 1873. In Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, and other countries with significant Chinese populations, Chinese New Year is also celebrated, largely by overseas Chinese, but it is not part of the traditional culture of these countries. In Thailand, for example, the true New Year celebration of the ethnic Thais is Songkran, which is totally different and is celebrated in April. 21.

Read the following passage and then answer questions below: (3points) In Vietnam, Tet-Trung-Thu or the Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most popular family holidays. It is held on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. Vietnamese families plan their activities around their children on this special day. In Vietnamese folklore, parents were working so hard to prepare for the harvest day that they left the children playing by themselves. To make up for lost time, parents would use the Mid-Autumn Festival as an opportunity to show their love and appreciation for their children. Appropriately, Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Children’s Festival. Trung-Thu activities are often centered around children and education. Parents buy lanterns for their children so that they can participate in a candlelight lantern possession at dawn. Lanterns represent brightness while all electric lights go out. Vietnamese markets sell a variety of lanterns, but the most popular children’s lantern is the star lantern. Other children’s activities include arts and crafts in which children make face masks and lanterns. 18. When is Tet-Trung-Thu held? ………………………………………………………………………………………………… 19.

Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer. In an early survey conducted in 1888, a billion and a half people inhabited the earth. Now, the population is about six billion and is growing fast. Even though the rate of growth has begun to slow down, most people believe the population size may be eight billion during the next several years. If we examine the amount of land available for this ever increasing population, we begin to see the problem. Not all land is useful to us because it cannot produce food. We can cut out about one fifth of it because it is covered by snow and ice. Then we can cut out another fifth because it is desert. Another fifth is mountains. The other fifth does not have enough soil for crops to grow because it is bare rock. Obviously, with so little land to support us, we should take great care not to reduce it any more or with the rapidly growing population we may sooner or later lack food to eat and place to live in. 41. What is the main topic of the passage? a. The world's population and the shortage of cultivated land. b. The growth of the world's population. c. The necessity of reducing the rate of birth. d. The shortage of cultivated land. 42. The world's population ______ at present. a. has stopped growing b. is still growing c. is decreasing rapidly d. stands at about eight billion 43.

Bengal tigers, for instance, which 'once roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world's ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival - and the survival of our planet. Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products made from endangered species. This has' had some effect, but by itself It will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed. 1. What is the main topic of the passage? A. The Bengal tiger B. International boycotts C. Endangered species D. Problems with industrialization 2. The word 'poachers' used in line 7 could be best replaced by which of the followings? A. Illegal hunters B. Enterprising researchers. C.

Introduce laws to prohibit the killing of endangered animals. B. Establish wildlife reserves. C. Refuse to buy animal products. D. Raise money to invest in equipment and patrol.

"World, Wide, Web: Three English Words" was the name of an article by Michael Specter in the New York Times a few years ago. The article went on to say: If you want to take full advantage of the Internet, there is only one real way to do it: learn English." In general, it is not difficult to learn to use Internet services. But although Internet services are rather easy to use, you will have considerable difficulties if you are not familiar with English. In fact, knowledge of English is one of the most important aspects that help you use the Internet. Learning to use a new Internet service may take a few hours, a few days or some weeks, but it takes years to learn a language so that you can use it fluently and confidently. Of course, when you know some English, you can learn more just by using it on the Internet.

VI. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answers. The natural world is under violent assault from man. The seas and rivers are being poisoned by radioactive wastes, by chemical discharges and by the dumping of dangerous toxins and raw sewage. The air we breathe is polluted by smoke and fumes from factories and motor vehicles; even the rain is poisoned. It's little wonder forests and lakes are being destroyed and everywhere wildlife is disappearing. Yet the destruction continues. Governments and industries throughout the world are intensifying their efforts to extract the earth's mineral riches and to plunder its living resources. The great rainforests and the frozen continents alike are seriously threatened. And this despite the warnings of the scientific community and the deep concern of millions of ordinary people. Despite the fact, too, that we can create environmentally-clean industries, harness the power of the sun, wind and waves for our energy needs and manage the finite resources of the Earth in a way that will safeguard our future and protect all the rich variety of life forms which share this planet with us. But there is still hope. The forces of destruction are being challenged across the globe - and at the spearhead of this challenge is Greenpeace. Wherever the environment is in danger, Greenpeace has made a stand. Its scientific presentations and peaceful direct actions at sea and on land have shocked governments and industri1es into an awareness that Greenpeace will not allow the natural world to be destroyed. Those actions, too, have won the admiration and support of millions. Now you can strengthen the thin green line; you can make your voice heard in defense of the living world by joining Greenpeace today. Thank God someone's making waves. 41.

The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity- Converting waste products to gases or oil is also.

(86) an efficient way to dispose of wastes. Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale, and coal tars. But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant windmills. Geothermal power is also being tested. Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in the United States, but to day it supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy. 41. What is the best title of the passage? a. The Use of Water Products for Energy b.

Scientists believe they now have scientific evidence to prove that ecosystems work better when there is greater variety of species within them. This biodiversity is being lost destroying natural mechanisms that could repair the damage caused by man. Findings show that losing plants and animals is not only reducing our quality of life but actually endangering our very existence. We cut down rich rainforests and replace them with one species plantations, such as pine and eucalyptus. We plough up meadows rich in different grasses and herbs and replace them with one grass, for instance rye or wheat. When a natural ecosystem is simplified the basic processes in the ecosystem are altered and even damaged. Without their biodiversity they are not able to serve as the natural cleaners of our planet. No longer are they able to absorb the carbon dioxide that is being produced in excess. The result is global warming, caused by the increase in the 'greenhouse effect', and ultimately, or even 'sooner, there will be' a change in the world's climate. 51. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? a. How Ecosystems Work Better b. The Loss of Biodiversity c. The Variety of Species d. Natural Mechanisms 52.

To give examples of the loss of biodiversity. c. To give example of variety of species d. To show how ecosystems can work better. 54. What, according to the passage, might be the final result of the simplification of natural ecosystems? a. The basic processes are altered b. There is loss of biodiversity c. There is global warming d. There is a change in the climate. 55. What is the author's attitude to the loss of biodiversity? a. Indifferent b. Negative c. Positive d. Neutral VI. Choose the answer - a, b, c or d - that is nearest in meaning to the printed before it. 56. She has always got on well with her colleagues. a.

(96) them, the "fair sex". But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists, and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68. Are women's bodies really weaker? The fastest men can run a mile in under minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Women's times are always slower than men's, but some facts are surprised. Some of them swam 400 meters in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16.

The hobby of collecting consists of acquiring specific items based on a particular interest of the collector. These collections of things are often highly organized, carefully cataloged, and attractively displayed. Since collecting depends on the interests of the individual collector, it may deal with almost any subject. The depth and breadth of the collection may also vary. Some collectors choose to focus on a specific subtopic within their area of general interest: for example, 19th Century postage stamp, milk bottle labels from Sussex, or Mongolian harnesses and tack. Others prefer to keep a more general collection, accumulating Star Trek merchandise, or stamps from all countries of the world. Some collections are capable of being completed, at least to the extent of owning one sample of each possible item in the collection (e.g. a copy of every book by Agatha Christie). Collectors who specifically try to assemble complete collections in this way are sometimes called 'completist'. Upon completing a particular collection, they may stop collecting, expand the collection to include related items, or begin an entirely new collection. The most popular fields in collecting have specialized commercial dealers that trade in the items being collected, as well as related accessories. Many of these dealers started as collectors themselves, then turned their hobby into a profession. There are some limitations on collecting, however. Someone who has the financial means to collect stamps might not be able to collect sport cars, for example. 41. Collecting may deal with almost any subject because ...... A. it has a wide range of subjects B. it depends on the collector's interests C. it is often classified into different categories D. it is based on a particular interest of the collector. 42.

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer. The advent of the Internet may be one of the most important technological developments in recent years. Never before have so many people had access to so many different sources of information. For all of the Internet's advantages, however, people are currently becoming aware of some of its drawbacks and are looking for creative solutions. Among the current problems, which include a general lack of reliability and numerous security concerns, the most crucial is speed. First of all, the Internet has grown very quickly. In 1990, only a few academics had ever heard of the Internet. In 1996, over 50 million people used it. Every year, the number of people with access to the Internet doubles. The rapid growth has been a problem. The computer systems which run the Internet have not been able to keep up with the demand. Also, sometimes a request for information most pass through many routing computers before the information can be obtained. A request for information made in Paris 'might have to go through computers in New York, Los Angeles and Tokyo in order to obtain the required information. Consequently, service is often slow and unpredictable. Service also tends to be worse when the Internet is busiest during the business day of the Western Hemisphere - whi.ch is also when companies need its service the most. Some people are trying to harness the power of networked computers in such a way as to avoid .this problem. In 1995, a group of American universities banded together to form what has come to be known as Internet II. Internet II is a smaller, more specialized system intended for academic use. Since it is more specialized, fewer users are allowed access. Consequently, the time required to receive information has decreased..

(105) Businesses are beginning to explore a possible analogue to the Internet II. Many businesses are creating their own "Intranets". These are systems that can only be used by the members of the same company. In theory, fewer users should translate into a faster system. Intranets are very useful for large national and international companies whose branches need to share information. Another benefit of an Intranet is an increased amount of security. Since only company employees have access to the information on the Intranet, their information is protected from competitors. While there is little doubt that the Internet will eventually be a fast reliable service, industry and the academic community have taken their own steps toward making more practical global networks. 56. According the passage, which of the following is true of the Internet? a. It tends to be unreliable. b. It has created a sense of financial security. c. It is too expensive to access. d. It has become increasingly less popular. 57. According to the passage, which of the following statements was true in 1970? a. The Internet was a secure means to gain information. c. Internet data proved to be impractical. b. The Internet experienced enormous growth rates. d. Few people were using the Internet. 58. According to the author, what is one reason why the Internet is sometimes slow? a. Phone lines are often too busy with phone calls and fax transmissions to handle Internet traffic. b. Most people do not have computers that are fast enough to take advantage of the Internet. c. Often a request must travel through many computers .before it reaches its final destination. d. Scientists take up too much time on the Internet, thus slowing it down for everyone else. 59. According to the passage, what benefits does Internet II have over the Internet? a. There is no governmental intervention regulating Internet II. b. Small businesses pay higher premiums to access the Internet. c. Internet II contains more information than the Internet. d. Internet II has fewer users and therefore is faster to access. 60. With which of the following conclusions would the author probably agree? a. An Internet system with fewer users would be quicker. b. Fewer academic communities need to create their own internet systems. c. The technology used by internet creators' is too complex for computer owners to understand. d. Companies who develop their own intranets are limiting their information data base. VII. Choose the answer - a, b, c or d - that is nearest in meaning to the printed before it. 61. If we had lost the map, we would never found our way. a. We didn't lose our way because we didn't lose the map. b. We will find our way unless we lose the map. c. We would have lost our way provided we had lost the map. d. Supposing we lost the map, we would not find our way 62. I am sorry I didn't finish my homework last night. a. I wish I finished my homework last night. b. I wish to finish my homework last night. c. I wish I had finished my homework last night. d. I wish I would finish my homework last night. 63. They were so surprised by the news that they didn't know what to do. a. The news was surprised them to know what to do. b. It was such a surprising news that they didn't know what to do. c.

Some day people will certainly try to build settlements on the moon. The best places for houses in a moon town will be a cave or a tunnel. Underground houses will not be squashed by meteorites that constantly fall on the moon from outer space. This will be important on the moon, since daytime is so hot that food could be cooked in the rocks, and the nights get bitterly cold. Pioneer moon homes may be made of airtight plastic that can be blown up like a balloon inside the cave. The reason for this is that the moon has no air around it. The pioneers will have to take along from the earth the oxygen masks when they are away from home. But the balloon house itself will be filled with air. Perhaps the house will have beds, tables, and chairs, built into it. These can be inflated, too. So people will sleep, eat and work on air ! Moon-house building will be easy. The moon’s gravity is less than the earth’s. Everything weighs only one-sixth as much as it does on the earth. (Squash: đè bẹp; airtight: not allowing air to enter or escape; inflated: filled with air, gas, etc.) 36.

Choose the correct answer by circling its corresponding letter A, B, C, or D. Long ago a lot of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light in the sky. And others thought it was a big ball of cheese. Then telescopes were made. And men saw that the moon was really another world. They wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going there. On July 20, 1969, that dream came true. Two American men landed on the moon. Their names were Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was that the moon is covered with dust. The dust is so thick that the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the first marks a living thing had ever made on the moon. And they could stay there for years and years. There is no wind or rain to wipe them off. The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to earth for study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then they climbed back into their moon landing craft. Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They joined Michael Collins in the spaceship that waited for them above the moon. Then they were off on their long trip back to earth. Behind them they left the plains and tall mountains of the moon. They left the machines they had set up. And they left footprints that may last forever. 1. This story tells ______________________ A. about the first men to walk on the moon. B. what the men brought back from their trip to the moon. C. how men found the footprints on the moon. D. who had left footprints on the moon before the two men landed there. 2.

The Americans’ machines will most likely stay on the moon until ___________ A. someone takes them away. B. a storm covers them with dust C. rain and wind destroy them.

VI. Read the passage carefully, decide whether the following statements are true (1) or false (F). Throughout history there have been many great explorers. Have you, for example, heard of Marco Polo, the famous Italian traveler? He was the first European to travel to China. He arrived in China in the late 13 th century. About 200 years later, Christopher Columbus sailed from Spain by ship. He was looking for a new way to reach.

(113) India. However, as you probably know, he didn't reach India. He landed in America. Five hundred years after Columbus in the' 1930s a famous explorer named Richard Byrd was one of the first persons to fly over both the North and the South Poles. Today we continue to explore this world and are studying to explore other worlds, too. In the 1930s Russian and American scientists sent many unmanned spacecraft to the moon. These spacecraft sent back very valuable information about the moon. Then on July 16th 1969 the first manned spaceship to the moon left earth. On that day Apollo 11 blasted off with three American astronauts on board. Four days after blast-off, two of these astronauts landed on the moon. They later explored the surface of the moon. About two days after landing on the moon, they started back to the earth. They arrived safely back on earth a few days later. Today we are sending unmanned spacecraft to other planets. In the future, we might walk on Mars or Venus the way we did on the moon. We might even travel to other galaxies. Who knows? One thing we know for sure is that we will continue to explore this world and other worlds, too. 41. Marco Polo traveled from England to China in the late 13th century. 42. While he was looking for India, Christopher Columbus reached America. 43. In the 19thcentury Richard Byrd flew over both the North and the South Poles. 44.

THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA The Great Wall started as earth works thrown up for protection by different States. The individual sections weren’t connected until the Quin dynasty (221-206 B.C). Quin Shihuangdi, First Emperor of Quin began conscripting peasants, enemies, and anyone else who wasn’t tied to the land to go to work on the Wall. He garrisoned armies at the Wall to stand guard over the workers as well as to defend the northern boundaries. The tradition lasted for centuries, and each dynasty added up to the height, breath, length, and elaborated the design mostly through forced labor. It was during the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) that the Wall took on its present form. The brick and granite work was enlarged and sophisticated designs were added. The watch towers were redesigned and modern canon were mounted in strategic areas. The Portuguese had found a ready market for guns and canon in China, one of the few items of trade that China didn’t already have in abundance. The Ming Emperors, having overthrown the Hun dominance and expelled Mongol rulers of the North devoted large portions of available material and manpower to making sure that they didn’t return. The Wall served well. Only when a dynasty had weakened from within were invaders from the north able to advance and conquer. Both the Mongols (Yuan Dynasty, 1271-1368) and the Manchurians (Qing Danasty 16441911) were able to take power, not because of weakness in the Wall but because of weakness in the government and the poverty of the people. They took advantage of rebellion from within and stepped into the void of power without extended wars.

The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the mast impressive Seven Wonders of the World. Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake TonIe Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia, Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century. The ruins of Angkor are d9cumented as same .of the mast impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only beginning to ponder. The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water. One possible explanation far the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to do with the inhabitants' irrigation system. The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River. Once filled, they were used to irrigate the surrounding rice patties and farmland during the course of the year. Farmers were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop. Without consistent irrigation, the farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production. Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs and canals broke down. The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces required an enormous amount of physical labor. In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor. In order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently. After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity. Soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply. With less food available, the people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle. Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure. 41. What is the passage mainly about? a. Modern day agricultural procedures in Cambodia. b. A possible explanation for the, decline of a civilization. c. The essential role water plays in farming. d. Religious temples of the ancient Khmer Empire. 42.

Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer. The loss of the jobs and persistent unemployment in the industrial countries is due mainly to changes in technology. It is thought to be misleading to blame job losses on the shift of corporations from the industrial countries to the Third World. The present technological developments have been compared to a Third Industrial Revolution. The first coming in the 19th century, was characterized by the steam engine and the use of coal. In the 1920s the second emerged with the use of oil and the electrodynamo. The third, the present one, is driven by computers, biotechnology and information technology. However, there can be seen weaknesses in the newest of industrial revolutions. The technology is advancing so fast and productivity is rising so fast that we are left with a big problem.. Because of the loss in jobs, caused largely by this new, technology, there will not be enough people with money to buy all these products. Technology as definitely enhanced our standard of living, even our quality of life. But as the capacity to produce expands and the lack of purchasing power and consequent demand diminish, there can be overproduction and recession, and what happens to our standard of living? 41. What is the main point the author is making? a. That the industrial countries have more unemployment than the Third World. b. That technology is the main cause of unemployment..

There won't be enough products for everyone to buy. c. There will not be enough money around. d. There will be too many machines in the factories. Why does the author think that there won't be enough people to' buy the products? a. People will not be able to keep up with technology. b. Productivity will not be high enough. c. There will be too many products. d. Many people will be unemployed What do we infer is the author's attitude to the technology? a. It has improved our purchasing power b.
