Read the passage and then decide whether the statements that follow are True or False
Floods can be one of nature’s most destructive forces. The damage caused by water’s “wetness” is
secondary to the crushing pressures of its currents. If water from rain, melting snow or flooding doesn’t
drain quickly enough, rock and soil can become saturated with water.
Mudslides possess enough force and speed to destroy homes, even entire neighborhoods. In May
1971, heavy rains in St- Jean-Vianney, Que., cause the earth to collapse into a sinkhole. The mudslide that
resulted killed 31 people and swept away 35 homes, a bus and several cars.
In addition to their destructive physical force, floods bring with them a more menacing threat. If water
levels are high enough, water seeps into houses and buildings, washing through laundry rooms, tool sheds,
garages, chemical storage closets, septic tanks and garbage receptacles. Runoff carries chemicals, toxins
and waste products that can filter through the water table for long periods of time. Flood victims must be
extremely cautious about the water they drink, the food they eat, and how they bathe themselves.

Father's Day, contrary to popular misconception, was not established as a holiday in order to help greeting
card manufacturers sell more cards. In fact when a "father's day" was first proposed there were no!
Mrs. John B. Dodd, of Washington, first proposed the idea of a "father's day" in 1909. Mrs. Dodd wanted a
special
day to honor her father, William Smart. William Smart, a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife
(Mrs. Dodd's mother) died in childbirth with their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and
his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state. It was after Mrs. Dodd became
an adult that she realized the strength and selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single
parent.
The first Father's Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington. At about the same time in
various
towns and cities across American other people were beginning to celebrate a "father's day." In 1924
President Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Finally in 1966 President Lyndon
Johnson signed
a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day.

Read the passage and decide whether the sentences below are TRUE or FALSE
Many parents are concerned that their children will spend time on social networking which they could be
using to do their homework, exercises, or interact with people in the real world.
They may feel that social networking sites are a waste of their children’s time. However, new research
claims that the communication opportunities provided by social networking encourage young people to
explore their interests, develop technical skills, and work on new forms of self- expression. The three-year
study carried out by a University of California research team that interviewed over 800 teens and conducted
over 2000 hours of online observations. It found that social networking helps teenagers learn the social and
technical skills they need to be knowledgeable citizens in the digital age.
The study concludes that social networking contributes to young people’s extended friendships and
interests. While the majority of teens use social networking sites to “hang out” with people they already
know in real life, some use them to find like- minded people. Those interested in chess or international
politics, for example, can expand their circle with others who share the same interests and can find
information that goes beyond that they have access to at school. They can also publicize and distribute their
music, art work, or writing to online audiences, and gain visibility and enhance their reputations. Teenagers
create new modes of self-expression and rules for social behavior online. New forms of online media allow
them to acquire technical skills through creating videos, writing blogs or customizing their online profiles.
The researchers said teens usually respect one another’s authority online, and they are often more motivated
to learn one another than from their parents or other adults.
Social networking has become a societal reality. Children and teens commonly use these sites to interact
like adults. With social networking such an important part of youth social culture, it can be extremely
difficult to completely keep teens away from social networks. Instead, it is better for parents to allow their
kids to access the appropriate websites while teaching them to use them safely and responsibly.
37. Most teenagers are said to use social networking sites for interacting with existing friends.
38. According to the passage, teens spend 2000 hours online annually.
39. Parents had better give their children instructions to use the social network properly.
40. It is said that it’s not easy for teens to avoid social network.
41. The word “It” in line 7 is nearest in meaning to:
A. a social networking site B. an interview C. research D. the University of California
42.What information is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Social networking has given teens the ability to connect with others.
B. Social networking is beneficial for teens.
C. Majorities of teens say social media helps them find different points of view.
D. The author mentions international politics to give an example of a shared interest.

Along with jogging and swimming, cycling is one of the best all-round forms of exercise. It can help to
increase your strength and energy, giving you more efficient muscles and a stronger heart. But increasing
your strength is not the only advantage of cycling. Because you’re not carrying the weight of your body on
your feet, it’s a good form of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with all forms of
exercise it’s important to start slowly and build up gently. Doing too much too quickly can damage muscles
that aren’t used to working. If you have any doubts about taking up cycling for health reasons, talk to your
doctor and ask for his/her advice.
Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise to be doing you good,
you should get a little out of breath. Don’t worry that if you begin to lose your breath, it could be dangerous
and there must be something wrong with your heart. This is simply not true; shortness of breath shows that
the exercise is having the right effect. However, if you find you are in pain then you should stop and take a
rest.
1. People with back problems might go cycling because__________.
A. it enables them to carry the weight of their body on their feet
B. it does not make them carry the weight of their body on their feet
C. it helps to make their backs become stronger
D. it helps them to relieve their backache
2. All forms of exercise must be started__________.
A. gradually B. quickly C. strenuously D. violently
3. According to the writer, it is best to go cycling__________.
A. once a week B. at least two or three times a week
C. at least two or three times a day D. every day
4. You should not worry about the shortness of breath because__________.
A. it shows that there is something wrong with your heart
B. it shows that you should stop and take a rest
C. it is a sign of exercise having the right effect
D. it is a sign of your getting rid of your heart problem
5. Which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of cycling?
A. Giving you a stronger heart B. Increasing you strength and energy
C. Giving you better muscles D. Making you look younger
IV/ (1,5 points) Fill in each blank with one suitable word. Write your answers on the answer sheet.

“Women hold up half the sky”. This is an old Chinese saying. However, research shows that perhaps
women do more than the share of “holding up the sky”.
Fifty percent of the world’s population are women, but in nearly two-thirds of all working hours, the
work is done by women. They do most of the domestic work, for example, cooking and washing clothes.
Millions also work outside the home. Women hold forty percent of the world’s jobs. For this work, they earn
only 40 to 60 percent as much as men, and of course they earn nothing for their domestic work.
In developing countries, where three-fourths of the world’s population live, women produce more than
half of the food. In Africa, 80 percent of all agricultural work is done by women.
In parts of Africa, this is a typical day for a village woman. At 4.45 am she gets up, washes, and eats. It
takes her half an hour to walk to the fields, and she works there until 3.00 pm. She collects firewood until
4.00 pm then comes back home. She spends the next hour and a half preparing food to cook. Then she
collects water for another hour. From 6.30 to 8.30 she cooks. After dinner, she spends an hour washing the
dishes. She goes to bed at 9.30 pm.
1. What is “domestic work”?
A. housework B. firework C. homework D. gardening

C. bringing water home D. preparing food for children going to school

A. Women work outside the home. B. Women work in the field.
C. The work of women. D. The role of women.

SEASIDE HOLIDAYS IN BRITAIN
British families started going on holiday to the seaside around the middle of the 19th century. The invention
of the railways made this possible. The first holidaymakers were quite rich and went for their health and
education. The seaside was a place to be cured of illness, and doctors recommended bathing in the sea and
drinking sea water. Also to increase their knowledge, families attended concerts and read books from the
library.
At that time, ordinary working people had very little time off work. However, in 1871, the government
introduced four “Bank Holidays"- national holiday days. This allowed people to have a day or two out,
which now and then gave them a taste for leisure and the seaside. At first. they went on day-trips, taking
advantage of special cheap tickets on the railways.
By the 1880s. rising incomes meant that many ordinary workers and their families could have a week's
holiday at the seaside. Rail fares were reduced and cheap hotels were built to accommodate them.
Holidaymakers enjoyed being idle ,sitting on the beach, bathing in the sea, and eating ice-cream. Cheap
entertainment was on offer and holidaymakers went to have fun.
I. Decide if the the following statements are True or False (T/F) (0.5m)
A. ................ The invention of the railways made going on holiday to the seaside possible.
B. ................ The government reduced rail fares and built hotels to accommodate ordinary workers and their
families in 1871.

b. What did families do to increase their knowledge?

LEARNING ENGLISH
It is not easy for adult students of English to improve their accent. Unlike children, who are flexible,
adults often find it hard to change the way they speak. This is why even the top, or smartest adult students
have difficulty with pronunciation. There are several things that an international students can do to improve
his or her pronunciation.
One method is to sign up for a pronunciation class. Studying pronunciation can help students to
understand the rules of English, but in order to practice speaking, students often need to be exposed to
English outside the classroom as well. This is why many students say that studying in an English-speaking
country greatly affects their English. Living with native speakers can help students to learn new vocabulary
as well as improve their accents. International students can also learn important cultural information. This
can help to prevent misunderstandings that can occur when people from different cultures live together.

With the development of science and technology, more and more energy is used every day. Nowadays,
many rural areas in Vietnam have been electrified, and more electricity is needed. If people waste energy, it
will quickly run out. Students at school should learn how to save energy, for example, they should turn off
electric lights when they leave their classrooms.
Moreover, we may waste electricity at home if we use a lot of light bulbs. By not wasting energy, we
will save a lot of natural resources such as coal and oil.

Mozart, who was born on January 27, 1756 in the Austrian city of Salzburg, was neither the
first nor the last child prodigy, but he was certainly the greatest. He was born into a
moderately prosperous family where his unmatched musical genius made itself known
extremely early. Mozart began learning to play the harpsichord at three and his earliest known
work was composed in 1761 when he was five, the age at which he also first appeared in public.
From the age of six, when his father took him on the first foreign tour, Mozart toured the
courts and musical centres of Austria, Germany, France, England, Holland, Switzerland and
Italy. It has been calculated that Mozart spent almost a third of his short life - he died at the
age of 35 - travelling. As Mozart matured, he continued to tour and give concerts. Mozart also
wrote a lot of operas. His first opera, Mitridate, Re di Ponto, was performed in Milan when he
was 14, and it was the first of many successes in the theatre.

II. Read and write the answers to the questions below:
or thousands of years, the ancient art form of Feng Shui has played a major role in Chinese life.
F Feng Shui means ‘wind and water’ and it is based on an appreciation of the relationship between
people and the environment. It involves changing the design of your living or working space to
improve your fortune For instance, soon after a Hong Kong millionaire moved his business to a new
skyscraper, his business began to do very badly. He immediately called in Feng Shui experts. They
told him that because his new office block was round, it was like a huge cigarette, and all the energy
was burning off through the roof. They said that the only thing he could do to prevent this loss of
energy was to build a swimming pool on the roof. The millionaire followed their advice, and his
business immediately started to do well.
In recent years, Feng Shui has become popular in many western countries, where companies such as
B&Q have started to seek advice from Feng Shui experts. Before his store was opened, Brian Ingliss,
the manager of one of B & Q's stores in Britain, consulted a Feng Shui expert. The expert advised
him to create a lot of free space around the store. Brian followed the advice, and within a year, the
store was the most successful B&Q store in the country.

TEST 47
Multiple choices
U
pon the creation of the United States, one of the core concepts on which the hopes for the new
democracy were pinned was the ideal that its citizens would be enlightened individuals with
clearly articulated rights and the opportunity for individual achievement and education. It was
believed that in a free nation where the power belongs to the people, the commitment to education
defines the progress of that democracy and is the catalyst for future progress. This core value has not
only stood the test of time but has also grown in importance. In this new Information Era and
international economy, education is an increasingly vital commodity, a precursor of potential success
and a driving force of change. It is important to recognize, however, that we approach education
today differently than in the past, partly because the kinds of jobs people had didn't require the kind
of basic education and specialized training that is often required in the workforce today. In the 1950s,
for instance, only 20 percent of American jobs were classified as professional, 20 percent as skilled,
and 60 percent as unskilled. Today, our world has changed. The proportion of unskilled jobs has
fallen to 20 percent, while skilled jobs now account for at least 60 percent of the workforce. Even
more important, almost every job today increasingly requires a combination of academic knowledge
and practical skills that require learning throughout a lifetime.
1: Education is defined in this passage as a driving force of change because ______.
A. without education, no changes could have happened in American society so far
B. the government of the United States want to drive social changes in their own ways
C. education has helped to bring about and orient most changes in the American workforce
D. any American citizen who wants to change his driving licence must be very well-educated
2: The passage shows the percentage of jobs that require higher training in the US _______
between the 1950s and now.
A. has remained the same B. has changed dramatically
C. has been reversed D. has changed slightly
3: The phrase "enlightened individuals" in the first sentence most likely means "people who
_______."
A. always appear brilliant-looking in public B. have often been well-exposed to light
C. have acquired an adequate level of education D. bring light to anywhere they go
4: In order to become a good American citizen today, in the author's point of view, any
individual must _______.
A. know well all his/her rights and be ready to grasp his/her opportunity of success in life
B. study carefully the history of American educational and vocational systems even since their
creation
C. understand thoroughly the combination of academic knowledge and practical skills
D. move actively forward in the new Information Era and international economy with a prestigious
diploma
5: Which of the following titles would be best for the passage?
A. Education and Jobs in the Past and at Present in the United States
B. The Significant Role of Education in American Citizens' Careers
C. Academic Knowledge and Practical Skills in American Professions
D. Recent Changes of Educational and Vocational Systems in America
TEST 48
I. Read, then do the alternation below:
Sometimes you know things about people the first time you see them, for example, that you want to
be friends with them or that you don't trust them. But perhaps this kind of intuition isn't as hard to
explain as it may seem. For instance, people give out body language signals all the time. The way
you hold your body, head and arms tells people about your mood. If you hold your arms tightly at
your sides, or fold them across your chest, people will generally feel that you are being defensive.
Holding your head to one side shows interest in the other, while an easy, open posture indicates that
you are self-confident. All this affects the way you feel about someone.
Also, a stranger may remind you of a meeting with someone. This may be because of something as
simple as the fact that he or she is physically similar to someone who treated you well or badly. Your
feelings about a stranger could be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place where
you were happy as a child. Since even a single word can bring back a memory such as that, you may
never realize it is happening.
1. What does the word "open" in the passage most closely mean?
A. Unrestrained. B. Relaxed. C. Confined. D. Unlimited.
2. What influences your impression of a person you meet the first time?
A. Intuition. B. Familiarity. C. Knowledge. D. Feeling.
3. What one feels about a stranger may be influenced by something that ________.
A. strengthens one's past behaviours B. reminds one of one's past treatment
C. revives one's past memories D. points to one's childhood
4. What does the second paragraph discuss?
A. Meanings of signals one implies towards a stranger.
B. Factors that may influence one's feelings about a stranger.
C. How people usually behave to a stranger.
D. Factors that cause people to act differently.
5. Intuition described in the passage can be explained by means of _________.
A. styles B. languages C. patterns D. behaviours
