Question V: ( 2.5 ms)

Read the passage and choose the best answer (đọc đoạn văn rồi chọn câu trả
lời đúng nhất)

It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food.
They also help us to look nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little
crack in the enamed covering of the tooth. This happens after germs and bits of food


have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads inside the tooth. Eventually, poison
goes into blood, and we may feel quite ill.
How can we keep our teeth healthy?. Firstly, we ought to visit our dentist twice a
year. He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can
examine our teeth to check that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many
people wait until they have toothache before they see a dentist.
Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least
twice a day- once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden
toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal.
Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish,
brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolate, sweets,
biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are
harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay.
1. Good teeth help us to ................
A. be nice
B. have a goodeyesight.
C. chew our food
D. be important
2. When food and germs collect in a small crack, our teeth ............
A. become hard
B. begin to decay.
C. send poison into the blood.
D. makes us feel quite ill.
3. A lot of people visit a dentist only when ..............
A. their teeth grow properly

B. they have holes in their teeth
C. they have toothache
D. they have brushed their teeth.
4. We ought to try to clean our teeth ...............
A. once a day
B. at least twice a day
C. between meals
D. before breakfast.
5. We shouldn’t eat a lot of ...............
A. red rice
B. fresh fruit
C. fish
D. chocolate.
