Read the following passage and choose the best answers to the questions. Conservation conflicts arise when natural-resource shortages develop in the face of steadily increasing demands from a growing human population. Controversy frequently surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. For example, a river may supply water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory. Farmers, fishers, and industry leader vie for unrestricted access to this river, but such freedom could destroy the resource, and conservation methods are necessary to protect the river for future use. Conflicts worsen when a natural resource crosses political boundaries. For example, the headwaters, or source, of a major river may be located in a different country than the country through which the river flows. There is no guarantee that the river source will be protected to accommodate resource needs downstream. In addition, the way in which one natural resource is managed has a direct effect upon other natural resources. Cutting down a forest near a river, for instance, increases erosion, the wearing away of topsoil, and can lead to flooding. Eroded soil and silt cloud the river and adversely affect many organisms such as fish and important aquatic plants that require clean, clear freshwater for survival. 26. What does “supply” in line 3 mean? A. cover B. provide C. make up for D. compensate for 27. Which word in the reading means “ living or growing in, or relating to water” ?

B. when a natural resource crosses political borders C. when freedom could destroy the resource. D. when eroded soil and silt cloud affect many organisms. 29. Which sentence below is NOT correct? A. Argument often surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. B. A river may provide water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory C. Conservation methods are incidental to care for the river for future use. D. Farmers, fishers and industry leaders vie for open access to this river. 30. What is the passage above mainly about? A. Conservation conflicts B. Agricultural irrigation C.

Read the passage then choose the best answer: (2pts) Music influences people in different ways or the same person differently at differenttimes. Music may seem to influence people differently. That is because people can reactdifferently to the music. We are able to apply a choosing process to the music we hear. Ifsomeone hates jazz, then a jazz piece with a positive effect will probably not make him feelgood. A happy song might appear to make an angry person angrier, yet it is not the musicitself that is creating the anger; rather it is the positive effect of the music. The angry persondoes not want to accept the song’s happy feeling: it points out his already existing anger, andmakes that anger come to the surface. When a piece of music is played and we are listeningto it, our body, mind, and feelings are being affected. The musicians of ancient cultures suchas China, India, Turkey and Greece understood the effects of music. In fact, Pythagoras, inancient Greece, introduced a whole science that concerned them. Because the musicians of these ancient cultures understood these effects, they created music that was positive, uplifting, and beneficial. Once the effects of music are better understood, the next step is to gain a better understanding of the music around us, and what effect it is actually having. 1. The text is about_____. A. The science of music B. Understanding music C. The effects of music on human feelings D. Music and an angry person 2. Music_____.

Conservation conflicts arise when natural-resource shortages develop in the face of steadily increasing demands from a growing human population. Controversy frequently surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. For example, a river may supply water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory. Farmers, fishers, and industry leader vie for unrestricted access to this river, but such freedom could destroy the resource, and conservation methods are necessary to protect the river for future use. Conflicts worsen when a natural resource crosses political boundaries. For example, the headwaters, or source, of a major river may be located in a different country than the country through which the river flows. There is no guarantee that the river source will be protected to accommodate resource needs downstream. In addition, the way in which one natural resource is managed has a direct effect upon other natural resources. Cutting down a forest near a river, for instance, increases erosion, the wearing away of topsoil, and can lead to flooding. Eroded soil and silt cloud the river and adversely affect many organisms such as fish and important aquatic plants that require clean, clear freshwater for survival. 26. What does “supply”in line 3 mean?
27.Which word in the reading means “living or growing in, or relating to water” ?

Argument often surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. B. A river may provide water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory C. Conservation methods are incidental to care for the river for future use. D.

Question 18: Do you remember (A) a (B) name of the hotel which (C) is at (D) the end of this street? V. Read the following passage and choose the best answers to the questions. In many ways, the increasingly rapid pace of climate change is a direct result of the growth of the human population. In the last 100 years, the world population has more than tripled. Obviously, this has meant that the world has needed to produce three times as much food, energy, and other natural resources. In addition, the average person uses more energy and natural resources than the average person one hundred years ago, meaning that the rates of consumption are actually much higher than just the increase in population would imply. All of these activities: food production, energy usage, and the use of natural resources, contribute to climate change in some way. The greater amounts of oil and other fuels burned to create energy release chemicals which add to global warming. In order to produce more food, farmers cut down trees to gain more land for their fields. In addition, we cut down trees to build the houses needed for a larger population. Those trees are an essential part of controlling global warming. In addition to a growing population, the world also has a population that desires a higher standard of living than in the past, and a higher standard of living requires the use of even more natural resources. For example, China is the world’s most populous nation, with 1.3 billion people. Currently, the standard of living for most of those people is far below that of people in first world nations. Therefore, the average Chinese citizen uses far fewer natural resources and less energy than the average citizen of the US or Japan. If every Chinese person attains a first world lifestyle, the amount of energy and natural resources needed in the world will double, even if the standard of living in every other nation on Earth remains the same as it is today. Question 19: The word “pace” in the passage is closest in meaning to _____. A. growth B. speed C. problem D. pollution Question 20: The word “consumption” in the passage is closest in meaning to _____. A. development B. usage C. population D. increase Question 21: According to the passage, how does food production contribute to global warming? A. Food production requires that the forests be cleared to create farmland. B. Food production uses many chemicals which add to global warming. C. Producing more food leads to growth in the world population. D. Food production decreases the ability of the air to release heat. Question 22: According to the passage, how does the standard of living affect global warming? A. Higher standards of living are better for the environment. B. First world nations create less population than developing nations. C. The use of natural resources is directly related to the standard of living. D. High standards of living lead to increases in world population. Question 23: Why does the author discuss China, Japan and the United States? A. To compare the standards of their citizens. B. To explain why China will not be able to become a first world nation. C. To explain why the world’s use of energy will need to double soon. D. To better illustrate the effects of an increase in standards of living. VI. Fill in each numbered blank with one suitable word or phrase.

However, the public role of women has changed dramatically since the beginning of World War II. During the war, men were away from home to the battle.

Để giải thích tại sao Trung Quốc sẽ không có khả năng trở thành quốc gia đầu thế giới. C. Để giải thích tại sao việc sử dụng năng lượng toàn cầu sẽ cần phải tăng gấp đôi. D. Để mô tả rõ hơn những tác động của việc tăng mức sống. Chọn D Dịch bài đọc: Theo nhiều cách, tốc độ biến đổi khí hậu ngày càng nhanh là kết quả trực tiếp của sự tăng trưởng dân số loài người. Trong 100 năm qua, dân số thế giới đã tăng hơn gấp ba. Rõ ràng, điều này có nghĩa là thế giới cần sản xuất ra gấp ba lần lượng lương thực, năng lượng và các tài nguyên thiên nhiên khác. Bên cạnh đó, một người trung bình sử dụng nhiều năng lượng và tài nguyên thiên nhiên hơn thời điểm một trăm năm trước, điều đó có nghĩa là tốc độ tiêu thụ thực ra cao hơn nhiều so với việc chỉ gia tăng dân số gây ra. Toàn bộ những hoạt động: sản xuất lương thực, sử dụng năng lượng, và việc sử dụng tài nguyên thiên nhiên, đều góp phần vào sự biến đổi khí hậu theo một cách nào đó. Những lượng dầu mỏ và các nhiên liệu khác lớn hơn được đốt cháy để sản xuất năng lượng tạo ra các hóa chất góp phần vào sự nóng lên toàn cầu. Để sản xuất nhiều lương thực hơn, nông dân chặt cây để lấy thêm nhiều đất cho đồng ruộng của họ. Hơn nữa, chúng ta chặt cây để xây dựng nhà cửa để đáp ứng nhu cầu cho một lượng dân số lớn hơn. Những cái cây đó là một phần thiết yếu trong việc kiểm soát sự nóng lên toàn cầu. Ngoài việc dân số ngày càng tăng, thế giới cũng có một nhóm dân số mong muốn mức sống cao hơn so với trước đây, và mức sống cao hơn đòi hỏi phải sử dụng nhiều tài nguyên thiên nhiên hơn. Ví dụ, Trung Quốc là quốc gia đông dân nhất thế giới với 1,3 tỷ người. Hiện tại, mức sống của hầu hết người dân thấp hơn nhiều so với người dân ở các quốc gia đứng đầu trên thế giới. Do đó, một công dân Trung Quốc trung bình sử dụng ít tài nguyên thiên nhiên và ít năng lượng hơn so với công dân trung bình của Hoa Kỳ hoặc Nhật Bản. Nếu mỗi người dân Trung Quốc đạt được lối sống của các nước đứng đầu thế giới, thì lượng năng lượng và tài nguyên thiên nhiên cần thiết trên thế giới sẽ tăng gấp đôi, ngay cả khi mức sống ở mọi quốc gia khác trên Trái Đất vẫn như ngày nay.

Tạm dịch: Các phát minh cũng mang lại sự tiến bộ trong xã hội cũng như là đối với cuộc sống của mỗi cá nhân. Chọn D Dịch bài đọc: Nhiều năm trước, trong vai trò cá nhân ở gia đình họ, phụ nữ thường chi phối các thành viên nam giới trong gia đình. Những người phụ nữ thì rất tận tâm vun đắp cho gia đình của họ. Tuy nhiên, vai trò chung của phụ nữ đã thay đổi đáng kể kể từ khi Thế chiến II bắt đầu. Trong chiến tranh, đàn ông đi xa nhà để chiến đấu. Kết quả là người phụ nữ đã kiểm soát hoàn toàn căn nhà. Họ thấy mình làm gấp đôi và đôi khi là gấp ba lần nhiệm vụ. Họ bắt đầu đảm nhiệm công việc của những người chồng vắng mặt và cả làm việc ngoài xã hội. Họ chiếm 73% lực lượng lao động công nghiệp. Thực trạng kinh tế đã ép phụ nữ phải làm việc trong các nhà máy. Những phụ nữ làm việc ở đó đã bị trả lương thấp, sống trong những ký túc xá nhỏ và đông đúc. Tuy nhiên, họ tự thấy bản thân mình là những thành viên tích cực của xã hội. Người phụ nữ, dù bị bóc lột tàn nhẫn, đã trở thành chìa khóa thành công của đất nước. Phong trào nữ quyền dường như là một phần quan trọng trong các yêu cầu đòi Quyền bình đẳng của phụ nữ. Phong trào hướng theo cách để thay đổi nam giới và phụ nữ và vai trò của họ trong xã hội. Nó thường định nghĩa lại vai trò của phụ nữ trong xã hội. Các phát minh cũng mang lại sự tiến bộ trong xã hội cũng như là đối với cuộc sống của mỗi cá nhân. Vào cuối thế kỷ XIX, việc phát minh ra máy đánh chữ đã mang lại cho phụ nữ một kỹ năng mới và một công việc ngoài xã hội. Những thành viên Suffragettes vào cuối thế kỷ đã trở thành biểu tượng với hầu hết những phụ nữ tham gia vào phong trào bình đẳng. Question 29.

So we’re fast approaching exam season and I can already see a lot of tired faces here in front of me. Well, today we are lucky enough to have Professor Manson from the University of Denton talk to us about how sleep can help us pass those all-important exams. So without any further ado, I’d like you to give a big round of applause and stay wide awake for Professor Denton. Professor: Good afternoon. Looking around this room now takes me back to when I was your age and life seemed to be a never-ending chain of exams and assignments (1 – Reasons why the human body needs sleep.). At that time, organisation was not my forte and too often I found myself up all hours of the night before an exam cramming every last piece of information I could in an attempt to remember something. Does that sound familiar to any of you? Can I just see a show of hands how many of you this term have had no more than 3 or 4 hours’ sleep before an exam? OK, so that’s a clear majority and it has to be said that last-minute revision can do wonders for the short-term memory, but what is, in fact, even more beneficial is a good night’s sleep. So, I’d like to explain to you now, especially you all-night crammers, the link between sleep and memory and how a good night’s kip can improve your exam results. Now, could everyone take a minute to work out, on average, how many hours’ sleep they get every night. (2 – The average time students in the class sleep.) Can I see a show of hands for more than 10 hours? OK, none of you, how about between 8 and 10 hours? A handful of you. OK, so what about between 6 and 8 hours? Right, that’s a popular option. And any of you fewer than 6 hours? Mmm … OK, so you’re the guys we most need to worry about. According to the National Sleep Foundation in Washington, newborn babies need anything between 14 and 17 hours’ sleep and this amount gradually decreases the older we get until as adults we need around 7 or 8 hours sleep, but … you’ll be interested to know that the 14 to 17 age group should be aiming for 8 to 10 hours’ sleep a night. (3 – The ideal amount of sleep at each stage of life.) So you can already see that most of us are not getting enough sleep, and this is something we need to think about. Sleep is essential. The human body simply can’t survive without it. (4 – Reasons why the human body needs sleep.) End of story. While we’re asleep, the body checks that all our vital functions such as growth, circulatory systems and our immune system are in good working order. And while we’re snoring away, our brains are very active restructuring information we’ve collected during the day and consolidating memories. So let me explain memory consolidation. Memory consolidation is what happens when information is moved from our short-term memory to our long-term memory with the help of a major part of the brain called the hippocampus. (5 – How the things we learn become part of our long-term memory.) This is it folks … this is the BIG moment when all of those facts and figures that you have crammed into your short-term memory are processed and consolidated in your long-term memory. However, as you’re probably aware, we don’t always remember everything. One reason we remember certain things better than others relates to the environment or conditions we were in when we originally made the memories.(6– Conditions that improve memory consolidation.) What experts have discovered is, the more emotions that are activated when we make a memory, the more likely we are to consolidate that memory. So, for example, the more interesting or fun you find a biology lesson, the more chance there is of you remembering information from it … OK, teachers? And not only that … we actually need to review information again and again after certain periods of time to help the consolidation process, which is why well-planned exam revision timetables are far more effective in the long term than short-term cramming the night before. And one reason why it’s important to get enough hours of sleep is that this process of consolidation happens during certain stages of sleep. (7 – When memory consolidation takes place.) So you’re probably aware that there are different stages of sleep. The initial stages of sleep are a much lighter type of sleep and it’s not until we reach the later stages of deep sleep, what we call ‘slow wave sleep’ because the brain waves are much slower, that we consolidate our memories. These slow waves help move the information we have collected and stored in the hippocampus to our long-term memory. So what we have here is enough evidence to conclude that the best way to help you pass your exams is to learn the information in a fun, interesting way, review it regularly, and most importantly, get plenty of good-quality sleep. And before you all drift off into a peaceful slumber, I’d like you to ask any questions you might have. Teacher: Thank you, Professor. OK, any questions?

Transcript: Interviewer: Today, I’m interviewing nine-year-old Alex about her feelings on how people can help save the environment. So, Alex, how can we save the environment? Alex: By saving water. Interviewer: Well, how can we do that? Alex: By not using too much water when we wash dishes, take a bath, and when we do other things, like watering the plants outside. Interviewer: Oh, I think I can do that. What else? Alex: When drinking or eating something outside, you should keep the garbage until you find a trashcan to put it in because littering makes our planet dirty. Do you like seeing trash all over the ground? Interviewer: No, I don’t. Do you have any final suggestions? Alex: Yes. We shouldn’t waste paper because trees are being cut down to make the paper. By recycling paper, we save the forests where animals live. Interviewer: So, how can children recycle paper, I mean, everyday? Alex: Well, for example, when I was in kindergarten, I used to save the newspapers so that I could make things make out of them, like paper trees, instead of just throwing them away. Now, the children in our neighbourhood collect newspapers once a month to take them to a recycling centre. Interviewer: That’s great. Well thanks Alex for your ideas. Dịch bài nghe: Người phỏng vấn: Hôm nay, tôi sẽ phỏng vấn cô bé Alex chín tuổi về cảm xúc của mình về cách mọi người có thể giúp bảo vệ môi trường. Vì vậy, Alex, làm thế nào chúng ta có thể cứu môi trường? Alex: Bằng cách tiết kiệm nước. Người phỏng vấn: Vậy chúng ta có thể làm điều đó thế nào?

Alex: Chà, ví dụ, khi tôi còn học mẫu giáo, tôi thường giữ các tờ báo để tôi có thể làm mọi thứ từ chúng, như cây giấy, thay vì chỉ vứt chúng đi.

Mục đích chính của du lịch sinh thái là để giảm tác động tiêu cực mà du lịch gây ra cho môi trường và người dân địa phương. Ý tưởng là để khuyến khích khách du lịch nghĩ về những gì họ làm khi họ đến thăm một nơi. Thật tuyệt khi nói về việc bảo vệ môi trường, nhưng làm thế nào để bạn thực sự làm điều này? Có một vài điểm chính. Khách du lịch không nên xả rác; họ nên ở lại trên những con đường; họ không nên can thiệp vào động vật hoang dã và họ nên tôn trọng phong tục và truyền thống địa phương. Một số người coi du lịch sinh thái là một mâu thuẫn. Họ nói rằng bất kỳ du lịch nào cũng cần cơ sở hạ tầng – đường xá, sân bay và khách sạn. Càng nhiều khách du lịch đến thăm một địa điểm, càng cần nhiều trong số này và bằng cách xây dựng nhiều trong số này, bạn không thể tránh được việc phá hủy môi trường. 31.

Tạm dịch: Các bà mẹ đi làm không chỉ làm việc mà còn chăm sóc con mà không gặp khó khăn gì. Đáp án: Because they not only work but also look after their children without any difficulty. Dịch bài đọc: Những bà mẹ đi làm là những người ra khỏi nhà với mục đích kiếm tiền và cũng duy trì công việc gia đình. Mọi phụ nữ ở nhà đều thích làm việc để cân bằng tài chính và các nhu cầu cơ bản khác của gia đình. Bây giờ rất hiếm khi có một cô gái không thích làm việc và chọn ở nhà như một bà nội trợ. Con cái của những bà mẹ đi làm trở nên thông minh và năng động so với con của những bà mẹ không đi làm. Điều này là do thực tế là các bà mẹ đang làm việc phải di chuyển ra khỏi nhà để lại tất cả các công việc gia đình lại. Những đứa trẻ đằng sau hiểu trách nhiệm của chúng và cố gắng để thực hiện tất cả các nhiệm vụ của chúng mà không bị phụ thuộc vào người khác, do đó trở nên đủ thông minh và năng động. Các bà mẹ đi làm bây giờ là một ngày được giúp đỡ bởi người chồng của họ trong các công việc gia đình sau khi đi làm về. Bằng cách nhìn thấy những người cha giúp đỡ các bà mẹ một tay, trẻ em học được những thói quen tốt và khắc sâu cách giúp đỡ người khác cũng như mẹ của chúng, do đó, theo cách này, những thói quen tốt được khắc sâu trong chúng. Một người mẹ làm việc cũng thêm lợi thế để giúp đỡ gia đình về mặt tài chính. Điều đó có lợi khi một người phụ nữ trở thành người giúp đỡ chồng về tiền bạc. Cách này giúp gia đình vận hành một cách rất suôn sẻ mà không gặp khó khăn về tài chính và những đứa trẻ cũng có được điều tốt nhất vì cha mẹ có thể đủ khả năng đáp ứng chúng nhờ mức thu nhập tốt. Các bà mẹ khi làm việc, trở thành nguồn cảm hứng cho con cái của chúng khi họ ngước nhìn mẹ và nói rằng chúng khao khát được giống như mẹ của mình trong tương lai gần. Các bà mẹ đi làm không chỉ làm việc mà còn chăm sóc con mà không gặp khó khăn gì. Vì vậy, những đứa trẻ như vậy cần phải nhìn vào người khác để tìm cảm hứng, nhưng chúng mới chỉ được thấy một cảm hứng ở nhà. Bằng cách này, chúng cũng học cách làm việc chăm chỉ trong cuộc sống của chính mình. 36.

Read the passage and choose the best answers. In Southeast Asia, many forests have been cut down to produce timber and to clear land for farms and industries. The destruction of forests has reduced the living space of wildlife. Much of Asia’s wildlife is also threatened by over-hunting. Many people kill animals for food or hunt them to sell to zoos, medical researchers, and pet traders. Because of habitat destruction and over-hunting, many large Asian animals, including elephants, rhinoceros, and tigers, have become endangered. In China, people have cut down most of the forests for wood, which has caused serious soil erosion. The soil is deposited in rivers and streams, which lowers the quality of the water. The Huang He, or Yellow River, is so named because the light-coloured soil gives the water a yellowish colour. The soil has also raised the riverbed. As a result, the Huang He often floods, causing great property damage and loss of life along its banks. Question 31. The living space of wildlife in Southeast Asia_________.

There is not real equality of opportunity for men and women. Years ago, people were living in a man-dominated society. Women had to obey their husbands and fathers absolutely. Women’s place was in the kitchen and women’s work was housework. In many places, women were not even allowed to go to school. Women had no rights, even the right to choose a husband for themselves. Men usually occupied high positions in society so they thought they were more intelligent and important than women. Men considered women their property. Sometimes, women were mistreated by their husbands and suffered this as a fate. Many parents did not even want to have female children. Thanks to the women’s liberation movement, women have nowadays proved that they are equal to men on every aspect. An average woman has weaker muscles than an average man but she may be as intelligent as him. Women can do everything that men can, and women can do one thing that no man can; they produce children. * Questions: 26. In a man-dominated society, _____________.

Controversy frequently surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. For example, a river may supply water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory. Farmers, fishers, and industry leaders vie for unrestricted access to this river, but such freedom could destroy the resource, and conservation methods are necessary to protect the river for future use. Conflicts worsen when a natural resource crosses political boundaries. For example, the headwaters, or source, of a major river may be located in a different country than the country through which the river flows. There is no guarantee that the river source will be protected to accommodate resource needs downstream. In addition, the way in which one natural resource is managed has a direct effect upon other natural resources. Cutting down a forest near a river, for instance, increases erosion, the wearing away of topsoil, and can lead to flooding. Eroded soil and silt cloud the river and adversely affect many organisms such as fish and important aquatic plants that require clean, clear freshwater for survival. Question 31: What does “arise” in line 1 mean? A. stand up B. sit up C. get up D. spring up Question 32: What does “supply” in line 4 mean? A. cover B. provide C. make up for D. compensate for Question 33: What does “methods” in line 7 mean? A. plans B. orders C. ways D. structures Question 34: Which word in the reading means “a promise that something will be done or will happen, especially a written promise by a company to repair or change a product that develops a fault within a particular period of time”? A. guarantee B. shortage C. population D. habitat Question 35: Which word in the reading means “living or growing in, happening in, or connected with water”? A. necessary B. major C. fresh D. aquatic Question 36: When do conflicts decline? A. when natural-resource shortages increase in the features of gradually increasing demands from a rising human population B. when a natural resource crosses political borders C. when freedom could destroy the resource D. when eroded soil and silt cloud affect many organisms Question 37: What may bring water to agricultural irrigation? A. a river B. topsoil C. erosion D. a forest Question 38: Which sentence below is not correct? A. Argument often surrounds how a source should be used, or allocated, and for whom. B. A river may provide water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory. C. Conservation methods are incidental to care for the river for future use. D. Farmers, fishers, and industry leaders vie for open access to this river. Question 39: Which sentence below is true? A. Conflicts improve when a natural resource crosses political borders. B. The source of a main river may be located in the country through which the river flows than a different country. C. There is assurance that the river source will be confined to provide accommodation for resource needs downstream. D. The way where one ordinary source is managed has a direct effect upon other ordinary sources. Question 40: What is the passage above mainly about? A. Natural-resource shortages B. Agricultural irrigation C. The headwaters of a major river D. Conservation conflicts Đáp án

The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to contact certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meat) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging label of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue. A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest. Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food without our knowledge. Question 36: How has science done to disservice to people? A. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food B. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables C. It caused a lack of information concerning the value of food D. Because of science, disease caused by contaminated food has been virtually eradicated. Question 37: What are nitrates used for? A. They preserve the color of meat B. They preserve flavor in package food C. The are objects of research D. They cause the animals become fatter Question 38: FDA means ______________ A. Federal Dairy Additives B. Food and Drug Administration C.Final Difficult Analysis D. Food Direct Additives Question 39: All of the following statements are TRUE except ______________ A. Drug are always given to animals for medical reasons B. Food may cause forty percent of the cancer in the world C. Researchers have known about the potential hazard of food additives for more than 45 years D. Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals Question 40: What is best title for this passage? A. The food you eat can affect your health B. Harmful and Harmless substances in food C. Avoiding injurious substances in food D. Improving health through a Natural Diet Đáp án

If you want to turn your hobbies into jobs, consider the following experts’ suggestions. If you are a helpful person, you can teach others to do what you love. “Teach piano lessons, offer cooking classes, or teach another language if those are your passions. You can do this by teaching through a college or continuing education program, by creating your own classes, or by creating your own webinars or tele-seminar series online”, Collamer says. If you are not interested in teaching, appraise, repair or fix items related to what you love. Most hobbies have “stuff” connected to them, and sometimes, that stuff needs to be fixed by a skilled and knowledgeable person. “You could fix computers, appraise collectibles, repair bicycles, source missing parts for highly unusual items, and so on,” Collamer says. “The next time you find yourself confused as to how to generate income from your hobbies, search out the most successful entrepreneurs in your area of interest and study their business models and revenue streams,” Collamer suggests. “Ask yourself: Is their income coming from consulting services, videos, accessories, events, classes or product sales? What is their mix of products and services? What is their pricing strategy?” In doing this, you will discover proven models for monetizing your hobbies, as well as helpful information about how to price your own services and products. Mufson, who has interests outside of career coaching, says she managed to turn a hobby into a lucrative part- time gig. “I personally turned my hobby of creating gemstone jewellery into a side-line business,” she explains. “Jewellery making is an expensive hobby and early on I decided to make it pay for itself. Since then I have developed two online stores and a relationship with a jewellery gallery that sells most of my work.” Question 36. What is the best title for the passage? A.

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 Researchers in the field of psychology have found that one of the best way to make an important decision, such as choosing a university to attend or business to invest in, involves the utilization of a decision worksheet. Psychologists who study optimization compare the actual decisions made by people to theretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are. Proponents of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal , that is, the best decisions. Although there are several variations on the exact format that worksheets cam take, they are all similar in their essential aspects. Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear and concise way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem. Next, the pertinent considerations that all possible solutions to the problem. Next, the pertinent considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined. Each consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance. A decision is mathematically calculated by adding these values together. The alternative with the highest number of points emerges as the best decision. Since most important problems are multifaceted, there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember. On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once. A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships. A realistic example for many college students is the question “What will I do after graduation?” A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year. A decision-making worksheet begins with a succinct statement of the problem that will also help to narrow it. It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones. Focusing on long-range goals, a graduating student might revise the question above to “What will I do after graduation that will lead to a successful career?” Question 20.
