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 questions from 39 to 43.
The 21st century has become another important century for inventions and discoveries. We are
only in the 2nd decade of this century currently but we have already witnessed many big innovations
that have drastically changed our way of living. Bluetooth technology, broadband internet, artificial
heart, genetic engineering, virtual reality, 3D printing are some to name a few. These inventions are
changing the way we live, do our things and communicate with the others. Even though some of these
developments are in the early stage of innovation, they have a more sophisticated and promising
future. Social media is one of the most important aspects that has affected each person in this modern
time.
According to Heidi Cohen, Social Media are the platforms that enable the interactive web by
engaging users to participate in, comment on and create content as means of communicating with their
social graph, other users and the public. The power of social media has changed most of the things in
our daily life. Social media has revolutionized and completely changed the way we send and receive
information. It is more interactive, can be done in realtime and uses a wide number of media like text,
audio, video, pictures, graphics and more. With these sites, sending and receiving messages offline and
in realtime, audio and video chatting, sharing pictures, video and text, going “Live” to many
audiences, meeting old friends and making new has revolutionized our way of establishing connections
with others.
There are also the negative sides of the innovation of social media and their usage. Increase in
cyber-crime, invasion of privacy, security threats etc. is some of the issues associated with social
networks. But at the same time social networks are working themselves to cope with the increasing
problems that arise with the improper use of it. With more and more sophistication and versatility of
use, social media have undoubtedly proved to be a boon to connectivity and social interaction between
people in this age of communication and information technology.
(Adapted from />Question 39: Which of the following could serve as the best title of the passage?

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 questions from 44 to 50.

Six the Musical tells the stories of King Henry VIII's six wives through a collection of pop
songs as they compare lives to see who suffered the most and who should therefore lead their girl
group. The songs are catchy, fun, and exciting, and they are genuinely great pop tunes. The singing
performances from the Australian actresses were amazing, and all of them were technically very
skilled.
It originated as a college student's concept album and it is clear even in performance that it is
not designed to exist as anything more than that. The dialogue is clumsy and tonally confused. It gives
the audience proverbial whiplash by sounding like a Hi-5 concert one moment to hammy, beginner
improv-style dialogue the next, before snapping to blunt, and pretty overt, British jokes about sex and
adultery.
Six tries to emulate Hamilton's success by using modern musical elements and basing the story
on a 'woke' and empowering retelling of history. But, as a revision on Henry VIII's wives, it just
regurgitates a bunch of facts that the audience already knows and sets it to the song. In performance
most of the characters are portrayed as strong, independent women, and they pull it off well by
anchoring their music in modern-day pop feminists. But the squabbles between the wives play into the
stereotype that women are catty and bitch about each other behind their backs. The entire musical is
steeped in the idea that these women are only notable because of their relationship with King Henry
VIII. Only in the last song of the show do the women finally reject Henry VIII and come to support
and appreciate each other. Six didn't have to be like that. It could have been about the women
supporting each other from the start.
And that is my other problem with Six. It tries to sell itself as a musical when it really isn’t.
Most of the actresses cannot act or dance, they can only sing, and the choreography they are working
with is very static compared to the likes of West Side Story, Moulin Rouge or most other musicals. At
the same time, the set and lighting design are barely used and don't add much to their performances.
(Source: />Question 44: Which is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Feminism in the musical genre.
B. Reviewing Six the musical.
C. The fame of a new musical.
D. A failed copy of Hamilton.
Question 45: The word “them” in paragraph 1 refers to __________.

A. Henry VIII's wives
B. pop tunes
C. performances
D. actresses
Question 46: The phrase “steeped in” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. imbued with
B. connected with
C. soaked in
D. implanted in
Question 47: According to paragraph 3, what is the problem with Six the musical?
A. It tries to follow in the footsteps of the legendary historical musical – Hamilton.
B. The musical fails to provide a new perspective as a revision on Henry VIII's wives.
C. The characters can’t portray the pop stars they are modelled after.
D. The cast of Six the musical all consists of female performers.
Question 48: The word “static” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. stable
B. steady
C. unvarying
D. orderly
Question 49: The author’s criticism about the musical is based on the rationale that __________.
A. a rendition of history should not stray too far from the original version.
5


B. historical stories should not be told with adulterous humor and sass.
C. a musical should combine acting, dancing, singing and set design together.
D. in Broadway, women’s stories don’t count unless they are about suffering.
Question 50: Which of the following statements is mentioned about Six the musical?
A. Six the musical is nothing more than a concept album.
B. Six the musical’s songs belong on the Billboard Hot 100.

C. Six the musical is a celebration of 16th-century girl power.
D. Six the musical has a witty, clever, and powerful dialogue.

cyber-crime, invasion of privacy, security threats etc. is some of the issues associated with social
networks. But at the same time social networks are working themselves to cope with the increasing
problems that arise with the improper use of it. With more and more sophistication and versatility of
use, social media have undoubtedly proved to be a boon to connectivity and social interaction between
people in this age of communication and information technology.

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 questions from 44 to 50.
Six the Musical tells the stories of King Henry VIII's six wives through a collection of pop
songs as they compare lives to see who suffered the most and who should therefore lead their girl
group. The songs are catchy, fun, and exciting, and they are genuinely great pop tunes. The singing
14


performances from the Australian actresses were amazing, and all of them were technically very
skilled.
It originated as a college student's concept album and it is clear even in performance that it is
not designed to exist as anything more than that. The dialogue is clumsy and tonally confused. It gives
the audience proverbial whiplash by sounding like a Hi-5 concert one moment to hammy, beginner
improv-style dialogue the next, before snapping to blunt, and pretty overt, British jokes about sex and

adultery.
Six tries to emulate Hamilton's success by using modern musical elements and basing the story
on a 'woke' and empowering retelling of history. But, as a revision on Henry VIII's wives, it just
regurgitates a bunch of facts that the audience already knows and sets it to the song. In performance
most of the characters are portrayed as strong, independent women, and they pull it off well by
anchoring their music in modern-day pop feminists. But the squabbles between the wives play into the
stereotype that women are catty and bitch about each other behind their backs. The entire musical is
steeped in the idea that these women are only notable because of their relationship with King Henry
VIII. Only in the last song of the show do the women finally reject Henry VIII and come to support
and appreciate each other. Six didn't have to be like that. It could have been about the women
supporting each other from the start.
And that is my other problem with Six. It tries to sell itself as a musical when it really isn’t.
Most of the actresses cannot act or dance, they can only sing, and the choreography they are working
with is very static compared to the likes of West Side Story, Moulin Rouge or most other musicals. At
the same time, the set and lighting design are barely used and don't add much to their performances.
(Source: />Vở nhạc kịch Six kể về câu chuyện của sáu người vợ của Vua Henry VIII thông qua một loạt
các bài hát nhạc pop khi họ so sánh các cuộc đời của bản thân để xem ai là người phải chịu khổ nhất và
do đó, nên làm trưởng nhóm nhạc nữ của họ. Các bài hát rất lôi cuốn, vui nhộn và sôi động và chúng
quả thật sở hữu những giai điệu pop tuyệt vời. Các màn trình diễn ca hát của các nữ diễn viên Úc thật
tuyệt vời, tất cả đều thể hiện kỹ thuật hát rất điêu luyện.
Khởi điểm của nó chỉ là một album chủ đề của sinh viên đại học và rõ ràng rằng, kể cả qua bản
sân khấu, nó chẳng thể nào vượt qua cái bản chất mà nó được thiết kế. Các đoạn hội thoại vụng về và
lộn xộn về âm sắc. Nó mang đến cho khán giả lúc thì là cú ngoặt rập khn chẳng khác một buổi hịa
nhạc Hi-5, chốc lại là đoạn đối thoại ngẫu hứng đầy nghiệp dư và chẳng có chút tinh tế nào, trước khi
nhảy sang kiểu chuyện cười cộc lốc và khá lộ liễu của Anh Quốc về tình dục và ngoại tình.
Six cố gắng mơ phỏng sự thành công của Hamilton bằng cách sử dụng các yếu tố âm nhạc hiện
đại và dựa câu chuyện trên một bản viết lại của lịch sử mang tính ‘thức tỉnh' và truyền sức mạnh. Tuy
nhiên, với tư cách là một bản xét duyệt lại về những người vợ của Henry VIII, nó chỉ nhai lại một loạt
các sự kiện mà khán giả đã biết và biến nó thành bài hát. Trong phần trình diễn, hầu hết các nhân vật
đều được miêu tả là những người phụ nữ mạnh mẽ, độc lập và họ cũng thể hiện rất thành công bằng

cách gắn âm nhạc của mình vào các nhà nữ quyền nhạc pop hiện đại. Nhưng những cuộc tranh cãi giữa
những người vợ vẫn tiếp thêm cho cái định kiến rằng phụ nữ rất xấu xí và hiểm ác sau lưng nhau. Toàn
bộ vở nhạc kịch khắc sâu vào cái quan niệm rằng những người phụ nữ này chỉ đáng chú ý vì mối quan
hệ của họ với Vua Henry VIII. Chỉ duy nhất trong bài hát cuối cùng của buổi diễn, những người phụ
nữ cuối cùng cũng ruồng bỏ Henry VIII và đến để giúp đỡ và yêu thương lẫn nhau. Six khơng phải
như vậy. Nó lẽ ra là đi theo hướng những người phụ nữ hỗ trợ lẫn nhau ngay từ đầu.
Và đó là một vấn đề nữa của tơi với Six. Nó cố gắng tiếp thị bản thân như một vở nhạc kịch
trong khi nó thực sự không phải. Hầu hết các nữ diễn viên không thể diễn hay nhảy, họ chỉ có thể hát,
15


và vũ đạo mà họ đang thực hiện chẳng có gì đặc sắc so với những vở như West Side Story, Moulin
Rouge hay hầu hết các vở nhạc kịch khác. Đồng thời, thiết kế bối cảnh và ánh sáng hầu như không
được sử dụng và cũng chẳng thể cộng thêm điểm cho màn trình diễn của họ.
Question 44: Which is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Feminism in the musical genre.
B. Reviewing Six the musical.
C. The fame of a new musical.
D. A failed copy of Hamilton.
Đáp án B
Tiêu đề nào phù hợp nhất cho đoạn văn?
A. Nữ quyền trong thể loại âm nhạc.
B. Bình phẩm về vở nhạc kịch Six
C. Sự nổi tiếng của một vở nhạc kịch mới.

=> Dựa vào thông tin các đoạn văn sau:
+ “The songs are catchy, fun, and exciting, and they are genuinely great pop tunes. The singing
performances from the Australian actresses were amazing, and all of them were technically very
skilled.”
(Các bài hát rất lôi cuốn, vui nhộn và sôi động và chúng quả thật sở hữu những giai điệu pop tuyệt

vời. Các màn trình diễn ca hát của các nữ diễn viên Úc thật tuyệt vời, tất cả đều thể hiện kỹ thuật hát
rất điêu luyện.)
=> Giới thiệu qua về vở nhạc kịch Six.
+ “It originated as a college student's concept album and it is clear even in performance that it is not
designed to exist as anything more than that.”
(Khởi điểm của nó chỉ là một album chủ đề của sinh viên đại học và rõ ràng rằng, kể cả qua bản sân
khấu, , nó chẳng thể nào vượt qua cái bản chất mà nó được thiết kế.)
=> Cùng với các đoạn sau đó, tác giả bắt đầu đưa ra dẫn chứng cho việc tại sao vở nhạc kịch này
không quá đặc biệt. Tất cả đều là những quan điểm, ý kiến CÁ NHÂN về:
(1) hội thoại;
(2) việc bắt chước vở kịch Hamilton;
(3) câu chuyện không có điểm sáng tạo;
(4) sự cứng nhắc trong vũ đạo cùng dựng cảnh,... của vở nhạc kịch.
=> Do đó, tiêu đề phù hợp nhất ở đây là: Reviewing Six the musical.
Question 45: The word “them” in paragraph 1 refers to __________.
A. Henry VIII's wives

D. actresses
Đáp án D
Từ “them” trong đoạn 1 đề cập đến _____.
A. Những người vợ của Henry VIII
B. Giai điệu nhạc pop

“The singing performances from the Australian actresses were amazing, and all of them were
technically very skilled.”
(Các màn trình diễn ca hát của các nữ diễn viên Úc thật tuyệt vời, tất cả họ đều thể hiện kỹ thuật hát
16

rất điêu luyện.)
=> Ta thấy “them” ở đây ám chỉ đến các nữ diễn viên Úc.
Question 46: The phrase “steeped in” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________.

B. connected with
C. soaked in
D. implanted in
Đáp án A

A. thấm đẫm, bị lấp đầy, bao trùm bởi (một đặc điểm, tính chất, cảm xúc nào đó)
B. kết nối với
C. ướt sũng, ngâm trong
D. cấy ghép vào (trong giải phẫu); khắc sâu vào, ăn sâu vào tâm trí con người
=> Theo ngữ cảnh trong đoạn 3:
“The entire musical is steeped in the idea that these women are only notable because of their
relationship with King Henry VIII.”
(Toàn bộ vở nhạc kịch được bao trùm bởi quan niệm rằng những người phụ nữ này chỉ đáng chú ý vì
mối quan hệ của họ với Vua Henry VIII.)
=> Do đó: besteeped in sth: thấm đẫm, ngập tràn những, được bao trùm bởi ~ imbued with

C. The characters can’t portray the pop stars they are modelled after.
D. The cast of Six the musical all consists of female performers.
Đáp án B
Theo đoạn 3, vở nhạc kịch Six có vấn đề gì?
A. Nó cố gắng đi theo bước chân của vở nhạc kịch lịch sử huyền thoại - Hamilton.
B. Vở nhạc kịch không thể cung cấp một góc nhìn mới cho câu chuyện dù với tư cách là một bản xét

duyệt lại về những người vợ của Henry VIII.
C. Các nhân vật không thể thể hiện được những ngôi sao nhạc pop mà họ được lấy để làm mẫu.
D. Dàn diễn viên của vở nhạc kịch Six đều bao gồm các diễn viên nữ.
=> Dựa vào ngữ cảnh đoạn 3:
“Six tries to emulate Hamilton's success by using modern musical elements and basing the story on a
'woke' and empowering retelling of history. But, as a revision on Henry VIII's wives, it just regurgitates
a bunch of facts that the audience already knows and sets it to song.”
(Six cố gắng mô phỏng sự thành công của Hamilton bằng cách sử dụng các yếu tố âm nhạc hiện đại và
dựa câu chuyện trên một bản viết lại của lịch sử mang tính ‘thức tỉnh' và truyền sức mạnh. Tuy nhiên,
với tư cách là một bản xét duyệt lại về những người vợ của Henry VIII, nó chỉ nhai lại một loạt các sự
kiện mà khán giả đã biết và biến nó thành bài hát.)
Question 48: The word “static” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. stable
B. steady
C. unvarying
D. orderly
Đáp án C
Từ “static” trong đoạn 4 gần nghĩa nhất với _______.
A. stable /ˈsteɪbl/ (a): ổn định, bền vững (theo xu hướng tốt vì khơng có biến động, dao động)
B. steady /ˈstedi/ (a): ổn định, đều đặn, thường xun (theo hướng tốt vì khơng thay đổi, khơng bị giãn
17


đoạn)
C. unvarying /ʌnˈvỉriɪŋ/ (a): khơng bao giờ thay đổi (cứng nhắc)
D. orderly /ˈɔːrdərli/ (a): gọn gàng, ngăn nắp; có trật tự
=> Theo ngữ cảnh trong đoạn 4:
“Most of the actresses cannot act or dance, they can only sing, and the choreography they are working
with is very static compared to the likes of West Side Story, Moulin Rouge or most other musicals.”
(Hầu hết các nữ diễn viên không thể diễn hay nhảy, họ chỉ có thể hát, và vũ đạo mà họ đang thực hiện

không đổi so với những vở kịch như West Side Story, Moulin Rouge hay hầu hết các vở nhạc kịch
khác.)
=> Do đó: static /ˈstỉtɪk/ (a): khơng thay đổi, lặp lại các động tác nhiều, khơng có các động tác phạm
vi lớn
~ unvarying: cố định, không thay đổi nhiều
=> Ngữ cảnh cho thấy vũ đạo không thay đổi là mang tính tiêu cực, vì nó khơng đặc sắc như các vở
kịch khác.
Question 49: The author’s criticism about the musical is based on the rationale that __________.
A. a rendition of history should not stray too far from the original version.
B. historical stories should not be told with adulterous humor and sass.
C. a musical should combine acting, dancing, singing and set design together.
D. in Broadway, women’s stories don’t count unless they are about suffering.
Đáp án C
Lời phê bình của tác giả về vở nhạc kịch dựa trên cơ sở lý lẽ rằng ___________.
A. một bản tái hiện của lịch sử không nên đi quá xa so với phiên bản gốc.
B. không nên kể những câu chuyện lịch sử với những câu đùa và xấc xỉa “người lớn”.
C. một vở nhạc kịch nên kết hợp cả diễn xuất, khiêu vũ, ca hát lẫn dựng cảnh với nhau.
D. đối với Broadway, những câu chuyện về phụ nữ không đáng quan tâm trừ khi chúng kể về đau khổ.
=> Dựa vào thông tin đoạn cuối:
“And that is my other problem with Six. It tries to sell itself as a musical when it really isn’t. Most of
the actresses cannot act or dance, they can only sing, and the choreography they are working with is
very static compared to the likes of West Side Story, Moulin Rouge or most other musicals. At the
same time, the set and lighting design are barely used and don't add much to their performances.”
(Và đó là một vấn đề nữa của tơi với Six. Nó cố gắng tiếp thị bản thân như một vở nhạc kịch trong khi
nó thực sự khơng phải. Hầu hết các nữ diễn viên không thể diễn hay nhảy, họ chỉ có thể hát, và vũ đạo
mà họ đang thực hiện chẳng có gì đặc sắcso với những vở như West Side Story, Moulin Rouge hay hầu
hết các vở nhạc kịch khác.Đồng thời, thiết kế bối cảnh và ánh sáng hầu như không được sử dụng và
cũng chẳng thể cộng thêm điểm cho màn trình diễn của họ.)
=> Ta thấy tác giả đã phê bình vở nhạc kịch vì một vở nhạc kịch nên kết hợp diễn xuất, khiêu vũ, ca
hát và thiết kế bối cảnh với nhau, nhưng Six đã khơng làm được điều đó.

(Khởi điểm của nó chỉ là một album chủ đề của sinh viên đại học và rõ ràng rằng, kể cả qua bản sân
