Question 5: Read the passage and choose the best answer. (5 points)
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 enamel 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.

mistake
Paragraph 0:
Imagine for a moment, spending the night on board of a large yacht, being roughly woken in
the pitch dark and ordered on deck. Every so often you will be totally drenched, very suddenly, in
salt water. You will be sharing the same cramped space with 14 other people for a whole year. Your
stomach, when not affected by seasickness, will be hit by the competitive tension and nervousness
that afflicts all sportspeople. You will be obliged to concentrate without cease. The slightest loss of
focus could cost someone their life.
Paragraph 1:
For the eight crews taking part in the Round-the-world yachting race, this has been daily life
since they left Britain eleven months ago. Now, after racing 50,000 across kilometers of ocean, they
are soon due home. While most of us have worked, slept, taken a holiday, these crews have sailed
and sailed, day after day, night after night, in weather conditions that would test any human. This is
the reality of ocean yacht racing, which bears little resemblance to the popular image of sailing - the
quick sprint around a lake before returning ashore for a meal and a warm bath.
Paragraph 2:
Racing 20-metre yachts around the world is a story of unrelenting hard work, pushing
yourself to the limits of endurance. But it is also a story of the vastness and beauty of the sea, of
seeing the sun rise and set on hundreds of desolate horizons, and of the supreme satisfaction of
arriving somewhere knowing that wind alone has taken you there.
Paragraph 3:
Unlike the captains, who are professional sailors, the crews all consist of amateur volunteers
who have actually paid for the privilege of taking a year off from their work and enduring these
difficult conditions. On board London Light the ages range from 21 to 65. For the youngest member,
Susan Porter, the trip is about the excitement of both the racing and the elements Being able to pitch
yourselves as a team against a storm gives you a huge sense of achievement, she says
Paragraph 4:
Jerry Wallace, a marketing director, found sailing a refreshing change from the selfish
individualism of business. Although he was prepared for the discomfort, the mental stress of long
distance racing was not what he has anticipated, A grand Prix driver has a few hours of focus, a
footballer 90 minutes, but we have been racing for 11 months. This is something I didnt really
appreciate before I start.
Paragraph 5:
Inevitably, there are tensions. The kind of people who choose to take part in races like this
tend to motivated and strong-willed. On a trivial level, there are the usual arguments about things
like cleaning, tidying, personal hygiene, even the way people snore. Row on a boat must be
24
TUYN TP CC THI CHN HC SINH GII MN TING ANH LP 9 THCS ( C P N)
addressed immediately. Left to develop, they get much worse. On London Light they have done this
by having a meeting where problems can be discussed and resolved by majority vote. Cooperation is
the key, and everyone can have their say. The London is one of the few boats that has never lost any
crew early because of a personality clash.

After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich man. However, he foresaw
its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of
dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding
prizes to people who had made worthwhile contributions to mankind. Originally there were five
awards literature, physics, chemistry, medicine and peace. Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-
seven years after the first awards ceremony.
Nobel's original legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on this sum is
used for the awards which vary from $30,000 to $125,000.
Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death, the awards are presented to the
winners. Sometimes politics plays an important role in the judges' decisions. Americans have won
numerous science awards, but relatively few literature prizes.
No awards were presented from 1940 to 1942 at the beginning of World War II. Some people
have won two prizes, but this is rare; others have shared their prizes.

A. prevailed B. postponed
C. prevented D. predicted

A. awards vary in monetary value.
B. ceremonies are held on December 10 to commemorate Nobel's invention.
C. politics plays an important role in selecting the winners.
D. a few individuals have won two awards.
63. The passage implies that Nobel's profession was in ...............
A. economics B. medicine
C. literature D. science
64. The word "worthwhile" is closest in meaning to ...............
A. economic B. prestigious C. trivial D. valuable

A. Alfred Nobel became very rich when he invented dynamite.

C. Alfred Nobel left all his money to science.
D. Alfred Nobel made lasting contribution to humanity.
