40. It took her (A) a long time getting used (B) to the new environment and make (C) friends with (D) other
classmates.
IV. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answers
Friendship is a big statement. Lots of people are lovers but are not friends. Lots of people are relatives but are
not friends. Lots of people who work together are not friends. You can appreciate or admire someone, but that does
not mean you make him or her a friend.
When I had my near- death illness last year and the following long recuperation, I had a lot of time to think
about what makes someone a friend. If they are scared of you when you need help, sorry, that is not friendship. If
their attitude is “for better or worse”, if they stick to you through troubles and difficulties, it is the time when you
can tell it is true friendship. I do have some friends, but not as many as I thought. And there was a time, in the late
80s when my friend, Ken, really needed me but I did not come through for him. I remember hanging out in my
happy suburban house in Menlo Park, and not coming to help him through the loss of his wife. Luckily, I got to
apologize for that but Ken said he did not mind.
I do not have a tidy answer about Ken and me and friendship. Sometimes we were friends, and other times,
clearly, not. But I guess there is something remarkable in two people overcoming the barriers to friendship to find
some real communication at some point.

Having a best friend to confide in can bring a positive effect on our emotional health. An evening out with the
closest friend may be the best guarantee of a good time. In fact, our best friend can prevent us from developing
serious psychological problems such as depression and anxiety.

who share common interests – as school or through hobbies, for example.

two hours passed pleasantly enough, and then I decided I had to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking
about for some time, I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the

was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in
his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.

A YEAR WITH OVERSEAS VOLUNTEERS
I was with Overseas Volunteers (OV) for a year after leaving university, and I was sent to an isolated village in
Chad, about 500 km from the capital N’Djamena. Coming from a rich country, I got quite a shock, as conditions
were much harder than I had expected. However, after a few days I soon got used to living there. The people were
always very friendly and helpful, and soon I began to appreciate how beautiful the countryside was.
One of my jobs was to supply the village with water. The well was a long walk away. The women used to
spend a long time every day carrying heavy pots backwards and forwards. Therefore, I contacted organization and
arranged to have some pipes delivered. We built a simple pipeline and a pump, and it worked first time. It wasn’t
perfect – there were a few leaks, but it made a great difference to the villagers, who had never had running water
before. And not only did we have running water, but also in the evenings, it was hot, because the pipe had been
lying in the sun all day.
All in all, I think my time with OV was a good experience. Although it was not well paid, it was well worth
doing, and I would recommend it to anyone who was considering working for a charity.
41. The author _____________.
A. has been working for OV for a year. B. was born in a rich family.
C. is living in the capital N’Djamena. D. used to be a volunteer working in a remote village.

A. depressed B. impressed C. surprised D. disappointed
43. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. It took a lot of time to take water home from the well.
B. The villagers used to live in conditions without running water.
C. A pipeline was built to carry clean water to homes.
D. Solar energy was used to heat water.
44. The word It in line 9 refers to _____________.
A. running water B. the pump C. the pipeline D. the supply of water
45. What does the author think about his time with OV?
A. It was paid a lot of money. B. It was not worth working
C. It wasted time. D. It provided good experience.
V. Fill in each numbered bank with one suitable word or phrase

IV. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answers.
The world’s population increased from 3 billion in 1959 to 6 billion by 1999, a doubling that occurred over 40
years. The Census Bureau’s latest projections imply that population growth will continue into the 21 st century,
although more slowly. The world’s population is projected to grow from 6 billion in 1999 to 9 billion by 2042, an
increase of 50% that will require 43 years.
The world’s population growth rate rose from about 1.5% per year from 1950 to 1951 to a peak of 2% in the
early 1960s due to reductions in mortality. Growth rates thereafter started to decline due to rising age at marriage as
well as increasing availability and use of effective contraceptive methods. Note that changes in population growth
have not always been steady. A dip in the growth rate from 1959-1960, for instance, was due to the Great Leap
Forward in China. During that time, both natural disasters and decreased agricultural output in the wake of massive
social reorganization caused China’s death rate to rise sharply and its fertility rate to fall by almost half.
41. How many people did the world’s population increase between 1956 and 1999?
A. 3 billion B. 6 billion C. 40 million C. 9 million
42. Which sentence is true?
A. Population growth in the 20th century was more than that in the 21st century
B. Population growth in the 21st century was more than that in the 20th century.
C. The world’s population is dramatically decreasing.
D. In 1999, there are about 6 billion people all over the world.
43. The word require in line 4 means _____.
A. spend B. demand C. pass D. take
44. The population growth rate decrease was due to _____.
A. reductions in mortality B. early marriage
C. early health care D. the effective use of birth control methods
45. In 1959-1960, the population growth in China _____.
A. increased rapidly B. decreased C. was steady D. was unchangeable
V. Fill in each numbered blank with one suitable word or phrase.
Although huge progress has already been (46) _____ in solving global poverty, there is still a widening gap
between the rich and the poor. The unfair distribution of wealth means that while the world as the whole is getting
richer, many poor people are (47) _____ from their share of this wealth. One sign of hope is that rich nations are
starting to consider (48) _____ Third World debt. Governments now recognize that without debt relief, there is little
chance of poor countries like Rwanda and Tanzania achieving the growth necessary to lift their (49) _____ out of
absolute poverty. Charities now have the ambitious target of cutting the world’s poverty by half (50) _____ the next
fifteen years. They believe that this target will only be reached when governments and development agencies work
together to achieve it.
46. A. done B. made C. achieve D. carried out
47. A. kept B. included C. excluded D. prevented
48. A. asking B. cutting C. raising D. delaying

The nuclear family, consisting of a mother, father, and their children may be more an American ideal than an

traditional mold and another third consists of married couples who either have no children or have none still living
at home. Of the final one third, about 20% of the total number of American households are single people, usually
women over sixty-five years of age. A small percentage, about 3 percent of the total, consists of unmarried people
who choose to live together; and the rest, about 7%, are single, usually divorced parents, with at least one child.

I. / i d /
2. / d / needed (chớ không phải / s /), mà âm / z / –ed thường gặp mà không theo
1. / f / laughed không có trong phần I & II, vậy nên luật ở phần I, II, & III.
2. / k / looked –ed phải được phát âm / d / 1. learned / id / : a learned man.
3. / p / leaped (raised / réizd /). 2. beloved / id / : a beloved

III. / d /
với những âm ý 1) cease, chase, collapse, decrease, person.
trong I & II. increase, purchase, practise, promise,
relapse, release…
B. CÁCH PHÁT ÂM -S
Từ cuối –s xuất hiện trong 3 trường hợp sau: số nhiều của danh từ ( books / s / ), ngôi thứ 3 số ít của động từ ở
thì Simple present ( He arrives / z / ), sở hữu cách của danh từ ( Dick ’s book / s / ). Cả 3 trường hợp này đều theo
luật dưới đây:

1. / s / pass, passes s, ss, ce 1. Cho phần II / 1 :
2. / 3 / rouge, rouges ge 13 danh từ số ít nầy tận cùng là –f hoặc –fe (phát âm là /f/)
3. / z / rise, rises z, s đổi ra số nhiều thành –ves (phát âm là / vz /):
I. / iz / 4. / ∫ / push, pushes sh 1. calf / calves 6. life / lives 10. shelf / shelves

4. / t / pet, pets t II & III khi số nhiều tận cùng bằng –es : cakes, clothes,
5/θ/ month, months th
stones, tapes, tubes,….
sau các nguyên âm 3. Cho phần II / 5 ( Ngoại lệ )
see, sees Những tiếng sau đây tận cùng là âm /θ/, nhưng khi đổi
& phụ âm khác với
III. / z / learn, learns sang số nhiều không đọc là / s / mà đọc là / z / : baths,
những âm trong I
tube, tubes
& II. mouths, oaths, paths, truths, wreaths, youths.

4. Danh từ tận cùng bằng –o (echo, hero, potato, tomato…) số nhiều thêm –es đọc là / z / (potatoes / z / ).
5. Cột được ghi bằng chữ tuy có phần dễ hiểu nhưng có hại về kiến thức vì có nhiều trường hợp không đúng.
( Ghi bằng âm mới hợp lý ).
Ví dụ : Phần II / 1 : Trong laugh, cough thì gh có âm / f /. Nhưng trong weigh, plough, bough, borough… thì
gh lại câm. Ta có : - She laughs / s / nhưng: - He weighs / z / - boughs / z /
- She coughs / s / - His father ploughs / z / - boroughs / z /
