Vo Nguyen Giap (25 August 1911 – 4 October 2013) was a General in the Vietnam
People's Army and a politician. He first grew to prominence during World War II, where he
served as the military leader of the Viet Minh resistance against the Japanese occupation of
Vietnam. Giap was a principal commander in two wars: the First Indochina War (1946–54) and
the Vietnam War (1960–1975). He participated in the following historically significant

the Easter Offensive (1972), and the final Ho Chi Minh Campaign (1975).
Giap was taught at home by his father before going to the village school. His precocious
intelligence meant that he was soon transferred to the district school and in 1924, at the age of
thirteen, he left home to attend the Quốc Học (also known in English as the “National
Academy”), a French-run lycée in Hue, earned a bachelor's degree in law with a major in
political economy.
While studying at university, Giap had taken lodgings with Professor Dang Thai Minh, whose

II. Read the following passage and choose the best answer from A, B, C or D to the
questions.
A pilot cannot fly by sight alone. In many conditions, such as flying at night and landing in
dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating. Since human eyes are not
very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby
planes are moving. The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts
in a cave. The echo of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave.
With radar, however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves. Radio waves travel at
the speed of light, about 300,000 kilometers in one second. A radar set sends out a short burst of
the radio waves. Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects. By
determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can
determine the distance between the radar set and other objects. The word “radar”, in fact, gets its
name from the term “radio detection and ranging”. “Ranging” is the term for detection of the
distance between an object and the radar set. Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar
is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and
storms.
1. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The nature of radar. B. History of radar.
C. Alternatives to radar. D. Types of ranging.
2. According to the passage, what can radar detect besides locations of objects?
A. Shape B. Speed C. Size D. Weight
3. Which type of waves does radar use?
A. tidal B. heat C. sound D. radio
4. The word tracking in the passage most closely means _______.
A. sending B. repairing C. ranging D. searching for
5. What might be inferred from the passage about radar?
A. It has improved navigational safety. B. It was developed from a study of sound waves.
C. It takes the place of a radio. D. It gave birth to the invention of the airplane.
Your answer:

natural causes. If a volcano erupts, it will fill the air with gases, pieces of ash and smoke. People
often cause the air to become polluted. When garbage becomes old, a gas called methane fills the
air. Cars fill the air with fumes. A lot of factories emit poisons into the air. Weapons of war also
add toxic gases into the air. To decrease air pollution, air quality standards, like Clean Air Act,
were enacted in 1963 and then some pollutants have been reduced.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
Few people can embody the spirit of early America as much as Benjamin Franklin. He lived
through almost the whole of the eighteenth century, being born six years after, and dying ten
years before it ended. In this time he saw the American colonies grow from tiny settlements into
a nation, and he also contributed much to the development of the new state.
At the age of 17 Franklin ran away to Philadelphia. He had already received some training as a
printer’s apprentice, and this helped him seven years later, with his first publication, the
Pennsylvania Gazette. He also received a contract to do government printing work, which helped
him to rise from his poor background to become a successful entrepreneur. Some of his
experience in business was shared in his famous Poor Richard’s Almanak, which established his
reputation throughout the American colonies. In another of his works, the Autobiography, which
was written toward the end of his life, he shows the same quiet common sense.
He was deeply interested in science and natural history, and his experiments with electricity and
lightning led directly to the invention of the lightning rod. He was also interested in improving
the conditions of his fellow men. He was involved in a number of projects in his native
Philadelphia, including the setting up of a library, a university, a philosophical society, and–
because he was a pragmatic man–a fire prevention service. In 1753 he became Postmaster–
General of the colonies. Through this experience he began to develop the idea that the colonies
of North America should be a single nation. Later, he went to London to try to persuade the
British government to change the conditions, especially the taxes, that later led the American
colonists into rebellion.
Whatever Benjamin Franklin’s personal feelings about the rebellion of the American states, he
worked hard to make it succeed. As ambassador to France, he encouraged the French to help
George Washington. After the war he attended the American constitutional congress. This was
his last contribution, for he died later that year. He is still fondly remembered by Americans as
one of the creators of the United States.
1. What is a good description for this text?
A. An autobiography of Benjamin Franklin. B. The life of Benjamin Franklin.

2. When was Benjamin Franklin born?
A. 1806 B. 1794 C. 1717 D. 1706

C. the American colonies rebel D. Franklin starts his first publication.
4. What was Poor Richard’s Almanak about?
A. Franklin’s reputation. B. How to succeed in business.
C. how to do government printing. D. The text does not say.

C. READING (30 points)
I. Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question. (5 points)
People have been playing with marbles for thousands of years. The first marbles were
probably either river stones that happened to be naturally round enough to roll or, more likely,
rounded globs of clay that were baked hardness. Such very old clay marbles have been found in
both Greek and Roman ruins, and quartz spheres have been dated at around 6000 B.C. Harder
and more durable marbles tend to inspire different kinds of games than soft clay marbles, which
crack very easily. So with the advent of hand rounded and polished marbles made of agate or
some other rugged, igneous rock, the ‘golden age’ of marbles and marble play flowered. Stone
marbles began to appear in the early 1800s in what is now the southern part of Germany. Shortly
after, handmade glass marbles appeared in the same part of Europe. For the next 120 years,
marbles and marble playing-there were literally hundred of games - flourished in both Europe
and America. Marble players developed their own vocabulary for different sizes and materials of
marbles, as well as for the many kinds of games to be played and the way marbles were used in
the games. For example, if you were going to play a game of Ring-Taw, one of the most popular
and enduring marbles games, you would lag for the first shot, and then knuckle down from the
baulk, trying your best to get a mib or two with your opponent’s immie.

A. has been going on since ancient times C. is losing popularity

4. We can infer from the passage that marble playing __________.
A. is a game only for children C. is played according to one set of rules
B. has many variations in games D. uses only one kind of marble
5. We can conclude from lines 11-12 of the passage that the terminology of marble playing is

In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and
Europe, recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new
ways to be sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second
time. The motto of the recycling movement is “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”.
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister
packs, boxes and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in
lots of packaging: usually paper, a box and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People
should try to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to
reduce waste is to buy high-quality products. When low-quality appliances break, many
customers throw them away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For
example, if a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the
manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way, if a customer chooses a product
with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers. To reduce
garbage, the throw-away must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles.
After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores. The manufacturers of the
drinks collect bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make
new bottles is saved. In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common
practice. In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-
away bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be
cleaned and used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of
energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people
collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world’s precious resources.
1. What is the topic of the passage?
A. How to live sensitively to the environment. B. How to reduce garbage disposal.
C. What is involved in the recycling movement. D. What people
understand the term “recycle”
2. What does the word “sensitive” means?
A. cautious B. logical C. responding D. friendly
3. What best describe the process of reuse?
A. The bottles are filled again after being returned, collected and washed.
B. The bottles are collected, washed, returned and filled again.
C. The bottles are washed, returned filled again and collected.
D. The bottles are collected, returned, filled again and washed.

A. training B. exercise C. deed D. belief

III. PART 3: Read the following passage and do the tasks that follow. (0.8 p)
A. Famous for its beautiful setting, San Francisco is built on a series of steep hills located on the
northern tip of a peninsula at the entrance to San Francisco Bay. The bay and its extensions,
constitute one of the great natural harbors of the world, embracing nearly 1,200 sq km of water.
Because of this, San Francisco was once the major Pacific Coast seaport of the United States.
Today the city is an important center for finance, technology, tourism, and culture.
B. San Franciscans, and in some cases their counterparts in the Bay Area, have successfully
undertaken mammoth construction projects such as the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, the
Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Area Rapid Transit system. Since at least the 1950s, San
Franciscans have also earned a reputation for tolerance of and respect for diversity.
C. The most serious social problems facing the city are not unique to San Francisco, but some
have taken on greater dimensions in the city than they have elsewhere. One such problem is
homelessness. From 1988 to 1992, the plaza in front of city hall became an encampment for
homeless people, rendering other use impossible and raising public health concerns. The problem
of homelessness persists despite the efforts of city agencies and private charities to provide
shelter, health care, and drug, alcohol, and mental health treatment. In the mid-and late 1990s
mayors Frank Jordan and Willie Brown both sought to discourage homeless people from living
in public space in the downtown area and, in Brown’s case, in Golden Gate Park. However,
residents of other areas complained that because of these projects, the displaced homeless had
moved into their neighborhoods.
D. In other areas the city has made some progress toward addressing social problems. As was
true across much of the nation, the crime rate in San Francisco dropped in the 1990s, as did the
rate of drug-related violence. In addition, some public housing projects in San Francisco that
were especially prone to violence and drug-related activity were razed and rebuilt with designs
considered less likely to encourage those activities. Other public housing projects received
stepped up security patrols.
Trang 4/7
E. Some social critics have pointed to an increasing economic and social polarization of San
Francisco’s population. Those who work in finance or high-tech fields are increasingly affluent,
pushing rents and home prices to among the highest levels in the nation. At the same time,
people who labor in the service sector often work for the minimum wage, cannot share the
affluent lifestyles around them, and are hard-pressed to afford rising rents. This economic
polarization coincides in part with ethnic and educational patterns. Workers in the low-wage end
of the service sector are likely to have limited English proficiency and a high-school education or
less; many workers in those areas are also disproportionately African American and Hispanic. By
contrast, those people who work in the finance and high-tech sectors are more likely to be white
or Asian American and to have one or more college degrees.

ancient tradition of a winter feast during the darkest period of the year.
On Christmas day itself there is usually a celebration with family and friends, which
includes a special Christmas meal of roast goose or turkey followed by Christmas pudding which
is soaked in brandy and set alight. The table is specially decorated, usually with Christmas
crackers, containing paper hats, riddles and other novelties. Port and nuts are often served after
the meal. Other Christmas foods are mince pies and a special Christmas cake, a fruit-cake
covered in marzipan and icing. Many people listen to the message broadcast by the Queen to
people in Britain and the Commonwealth on Christmas day. The following day is called Boxing
Day. It was formally the day when servants were given their “Christmas box”, a gift or money

post, milk, newspapers, etc.
