IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate
the correct answer to each of the s.
TAKING A WORKING HOLIDAY
One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel
is the lack of funds. During summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they
are able to take on part-time jobs, but the money they make is just a drop in
the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example, traveling to
Australia from Vietnam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to
a lot of students wanting to travel, it can seem out of reach.
For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular,
however, they are in luck. Although many countries offer working holidays,
these two countries are well-known for offering them. When a young person
signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the round-trip airfare
to get to either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals.
Once he is there, a job awaits where he can earn some money.
Many of the jobs require little or no experience, such as picking fruit or
working in a busy pub out in the countryside. Some of the jobs require more
experience that most people are unlikely to have, such as being a certified
welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That shouldn’t discourage you,
though, because there is always something to be found if you search hard
enough.

New Zealand. If you have the courage and are looking for a way to make a
little money and see the world, it might be just the ticket you were looking for.

A. To show how fearful he is B. To earn money
C. To see the world D. To visit a new place

B. The ones who are on holiday

In the past, getting recipes and cooking tips was a complicated process. A
person had to go to the store and buy a cook book, or get recipes from friends.
Fortunately, the Internet has changed all that. Now, if you want to find a
recipe for lasagne or Cobb salad, you just search online. It couldn’t be simpler.
Cooking blogs are a great source of information because they are free and
there are so many of them. They are also nice because they give all different
kinds of ideas. The problems with blogs is that because we don’t know who is
writing them, we need to use with caution. When you are looking at a new
blog, you don’t know if the writer knows what he or she is talking about.
We’d like to introduce two popular cooking blogs. The first is called
Smitten Kitchen. This website is run by a family living in New York City. It
focuses on food that doesn’t require many ingredients. If you want to make

recommendations for great restaurants in Berlin, and advice for people who
want to start their own blogs. Wednesday Chef has great pictures of its food,

SIMPLE WAYS TO LOSE WEIGHT ON A BUDGET
Plan to Cook at Home
Instead of buying costly prepared meals, which often tend to be high in
calories, cook your own at home. Plan out our meals with high-fiber foods like
beans and whole grains which will keep you full and are a cheaper, healthier
alternative to rich proteins and more processed grains.
Eat Less
Eating less leads to weight loss, and cost savings, especially if you cut
down on the right things. Start by cutting your portions of spicy meat and
poultry. Or swap out meat and poultry for cheaper vegetarian proteins like
beans, lentils, tofu and eggs for some of your meals.
Double Up on Vegetables
Vegetables are great for weight loss, as well as all-around health. They are
low in calories and high in water and fiber – two things that keep you feeling
full. Save cash by shopping for those that are in season. Frozen vegetables can
be a great bargain, with just as much nutrition as fresh, since they are picked
and frozen at their peak ripeness.
Get Creative with Your Exercise Options
You don’t need to shell out a monthly gym fee to get moving. Instead, find
fun activities you enjoy for free. If you’re just getting started with a regular
exercise routine, try your beginning with daily walks: start slowly and build up
time and speed.
Make Friends with Someone
27
One of the most powerful resources you have for helping you lose weight is
your social network. Find a friend who is also trying to lose weight and agree
to help each other stay motivated. One study found that when friends
participated in a group weight-loss programme together, they lost more weight
than people who did the same programme on their own.

TAKING A WORKING HOLIDAY
One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel
is the lack of funds. During summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they
are able to take on part-time jobs, but the money they make is just a drop in
the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example, traveling to
Australia from Vietnam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to
a lot of students wanting to travel, it can seem out of reach.
For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular,
however, they are in luck. Although many countries offer working holidays,
these two countries are well-known for offering them. When a young person
signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the round-trip airfare
to get to either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals.

Humans have a long history of eating insects, and it turns out that
they can be a very nutritious part of a person’s regular diet. Insects have a lot of
protein, and they are often easier to catch than prey animals. Therefore, it is no
wonder that when our ancient ancestors saw some tasty worms or grubs wiggling
on the ground, they made a quick snack of them.
In Thailand, insects are a regular part of the street food that can be
found. The different insects that people snack on are crickets, grasshoppers, giant
water bugs, and assorted worms. They are often deep-fried and salted, so they
have a crunchy texture that makes them a perfect snack food. If you can get past
the fact that you are eating a cricket, it will crunch in your mouth just like a corn
chip!
For a lot of people, however, it is difficult to get over the fear of
eating insects. People tend to see insects as invaders, especially when they are
crawling on the food that we are about to ear. Therefore, being able to eat insects
without feeling disgusted is cultural. Some people cannot eat French cheese or
stinky tofu because they weren’t brought up doing so. To many of us, insects fall
right into that category, making it difficult to even try them.
If given the chance, though, be courageous. Insects can be nutritious
and tasty, so long as you can get over the “yuck” factor.
28. Which is the reason given for gathering and eating insects?

My first piece of advice to people who want to start getting fit is don’t
buy an exercise bike. Typically, people who buy them use them for a week or so
and then forget about them. They are effective if they are used regularly but you
need to be determined. Most people will find it much easier to go for a gentle
jog around the park.
As well as being easy to do, jogging is also relatively cheap compared
to most other sports. You don’t need to buy expensive clothes if you’re just going
running around the park or on the beach. The main thing is that they’re
comfortable, and that they keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
There is one piece of equipment, however, that you will have to spend time and
money on, and that’s your running shoes. Remember that you are not looking for
a fashion item, but for something that will support your feet and protect you from
injury. They can be expensive, but if they are good quality they will last you a
long time. It’s always best to get expert advice, and the best place for that is a
sports shop.
Đề số 06 – 10

As for the actual jogging, the secret is to start gently, and not to do
too much at the beginning – especially if you haven’t had any exercise for a long
time. Try a mixture of walking and running for ten minutes about three times a
week at first. Once you are happy doing that you can then start to increase the
amount you do gradually. After a few months you should hope to be able to run
at a reasonable speed for twenty minutes three or four times a week. It’s
important that you feel comfortable with whatever you do. If you do, you’ll start
to enjoy it and will probably keep doing it. If it makes you feel uncomfortable,
you’ll probably stop after a short time and return to your bad habits. In any case,
training too hard is not very effective. Research has shown that somebody who
exercise for twice as long or twice as hard as another person doesn’t
automatically become twice as fit.

In the 1960s, it took pop and rock groups one or two days to record
their songs. Nowadays, it can take months and months. Many rock groups begin
by recording only one instrument, for example, the voice. Then they record other
instruments- electric piano, synthesizer, guitars, drums and so on.
Next, they might use a computer to add special effects. Finally, they
‘mix’ all the instruments until they get the sound that they want. This means that
a CD or cassette will always sound very different from a live concert.
Music engineers have developed a new computer programme that will
change the future of music. A computer can analyse a singer’s voice. Then if you
give the computer the lyrics and music of a song, the computer can ‘sing’ it in
that voice. This means that a singer only needs to record one song and the
computer can then sing other songs in the singer’s own voice. Singers can sing
new songs many years after they have died.
Most of us listen to music for pleasure, but for the record companies,
music is a product, the same as soap powder. When a record company finds a
new group (or ‘band’), they first try to develop the band’s ‘profile’. They will try
to create an ‘image’ for the band that they think will attract young people.

WORLD BBQ
To some people, there is nothing more appetizing than the smell of
meat sizzling over an open fire. Throughout the world, people love to eat
barbecue because it lets them together with friends and family to enjoy a meat
that brings them back to their caveman roots. Cooking over coals or an open
flame makes people feel more sociable.
Most countries have barbecue traditions, and they usually take place
on national holidays. In the United States, it is a tradition to have a barbecue of
hamburgers and hot dogs on July 4, which is Independence Day. In Taiwan,
people get together to eat barbecue during the Moon Festival, and the smell of
burning coal is in the air all day.
In South America, and in Argentina in particular, barbecue is a way
of life. All sorts of meats and sausages are put on a large grill together over hot
coals. Barbecue is even considered the national dish in Argentina, and it is
given the name asado in Portuguese. This means not only the dish, but also the
social event that surrounds an Argentina barbecue.
When a person speaks about Turkish and Middle Eastern barbecue,
the kebab immediately comes to mind. The tradition of taking different meats,
and sometimes vegetables as well, and spearing them with a sharp stick called a
skewer has crossed cultural lines today. Practically, anywhere in the English-
speaking world, the thought of shish-kebab will make barbecue lovers’ mouths
water.

across a local method of preparing barbecue. If you visit different places, be
bold and try whatever the local specialities are.

THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH IN TODAY’S WORLD
English was originally the language of England, and soon it has
become the primary or secondary language of many former British colonies
such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and India. Nowadays, it is the
most international language in the world. There are several factors that make
the English language essential to communication in our current time.
First of all, it is the most common foreign language. This means that
two people who come from different countries (for example, a Mexican and a
Swede) usually use English as a common language to communicate. English is
also essential to the field of education. In many countries, children are taught
and encouraged to learn English as a second language. At the university level,
students in many countries study almost all their subjects in English in order to
make the material more accessible to international students. On the Internet, the
majority of websites are written and created in English. Even sites in other
languages often give you the option to translate the site. It is the primary
language of the press: more newspapers and books are written in English than
in any other language, and no matter where in the world you are, you will find
some of these books and newspapers available.
Although many people think that it is very difficult and confusing,
English is actually the easiest language of the world to learn because there are
so many resources available. As soon as you decide you want to learn, there are
thousands of resources on the Internet and in bookstores. With good
understanding and communication in English, you can travel around the globe.
Because it is the international language for foreigners, it is easy to get
assistance and help in every part of the world. You can test it by online travel.
Any travel booking site you can find will have English as a booking option.
