Part 3. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer by writing the corresponding letter A, B, C or
D on your answer sheet.
Passage 1. MUSIC AT SCHOOL
With popular music as with classical music, the only way to come to understand it thoroughly, it is said, is by
performing it. The problem with many pop bands is that their members are self – taught and, consequently, if ever they
reach the level of public performance, they often only succeed in perpetuating the musical conventions to which they
have been exposed. The days when a group of raw, talented musicians could get together and work their way through
to a distinctive sound, constantly improving their technique in the process, seem to be gone.
There may still be talents around of the order of a Jimi Hendrix or Eric Clapton, able to acquire prodigious technique
mainly by themselves, but the motivation -the sense that there is still something urgent to say within the medium - has
largely evaporated. So much so that most aspiring young musicians are increasingly content to play their own versions
of other people's tunes.
So what role, if any, does music teaching in school have to play? The current fashion in musical education in Britain
dictates that young children must be creative and active, whilst the playing of recorded music to children has been
made to seem like an easy option for lazy teachers. With many years of experience behind me as a musician and
teacher, however, I feel strongly that listening to music is actually a crucial component in any musical education.
The arguments put forward by music educators are usually a reaction to what they see as a habit of uncritical listening
induced by pop music. But in response to this, I fear, rather simplistic view, a couple of points need making. The first
is that classical music is also listened to uncritically. I well remember a head teacher (who incidentally was always
complaining that her students' homework suffered as a result of their being distracted by popular music) sharing with
me her delight over the new home hi-fi system she had acquired. Mozart, she said, eased the burden of writing

4
Ngo Gia Tu High School – T: Nguyen Thi Quynh Hoa. Gifted student 12
Tel: 0987137677
hundreds of student reports enormously. Within a few weeks of our conversation, however, she had banned herself
from using the system whilst working, so inaccurate had her report writing become.
The second is that the aural awareness of the average listener to classical music – and I am afraid that includes a lot of
music teachers – is also severely under-developed. Really discriminating listeners cannot tolerate music as a
background to any activity that requires their concentration. Because they are mentally processing every note, they
cannot shut the music out in order to perform any other tasks.
What’s more, if musical performance, recorded or live, is to have an impact on the young, it is not going to be because
it has been suitably prepared for creative exploration. More likely, it will be because a particular piece of music is able
to move those pupils who are susceptible to such motivation by its irrational, primeval power. That is why it is so
important that children should encounter the real world of music – preferably live as well as recorded – on as much
variety as possible. Live music also provides an opportunity for educational visits which, rather like holidays, provide
not only a useful psychological break from school routine, but also serve to broaden young people's horizons.
Moreover if children need plenty of exposure to a variety of musical forms, it follows that we should not make, or
allow children to make, any value judgements about which form is 'superior'. The fact is, popular and classical music
represent different ways of life, in the sense of different views of culture and the values associated with it - and this
despite the efforts of so many trained musicians to bridge the gap. It is there important that education should recognise
the existence of this gap and subject it to some scrutiny, rather than pretend that it does not exist, or plump solely for
one side or the other. Given the customary classical training of music teachers, and the general pop-orientated musical
preferences of children, there is usually an intrinsic wariness between class and teacher: an unstated need for a kind of
negotiated settlement. As with any negotiation, the start should be with areas of agreement rather than disagreement.
1.According to the writer, what do contemporary pop bands lack?
A. genuine musical talent B. inspirational role models
C. an innovative spirit D. musical conventions to follow
2. In the writer’s view, music classes in school_____
A. are too passive in nature. B. over emphasize the role of music-making.
C. are over reliant on recorded music. D. fail to exploit the experience of teachers.
3. What point does the example of the head teacher illustrate?
A. Popular music doesn’t require concentration. B. Good music demands our full attention.
C. Any kind of music can be distracting. D. Classical music helps us to concentrate.
4. What point is made about music teachers in the fifth paragraph?
A. They are inclined to misinterpret classical music. B. They sometimes misuse recorded music in their classes.
C. Some of them focus too narrowly on music in their training.
D. Many of them have not learned to listen to music effectively.
5. In the writer’s opinion, what aspect of a musical performance is most likely to appeal to young people?
A. Its emotional impact B. Its creative energy C. Its unpredictable nature D. Its educational value
6. .According to the writer, in dealing with pop and classical music in the classroom, teachers should
A. analyze how one has influenced the other. B. attempt to find common ground between them.
C. present them as equally correct and valuable. D. get their students to decide which is better.

Passage 2. How I found my true voice

As an interpreter, Suzanne Glass could speak only for others – but the work provided terrific material for her first
novel.
‘No, no, no! You’ve got to get away from this or you’re going to lose it.’ The voice reverberating in my head
was my own. I was at an international conference. My throat was killing me and my headphones were pinching. I
had just been interpreting a speaker whose last words had been: ‘We must take very seriously the
standardization of the length of cucumbers and the size of tomatoes.’ You can’t afford to have your own
thoughts when you’re interpreting simultaneously, so, of course, I missed the speaker’s next sentence and lost his
train of thought. Sitting in a darkened booth at the back of a huge conference hall, I was thrown. Fortunately, my
colleague grabbed my microphone and took over.
This high-pressure, high-output work was not quite the dream profession I had hoped for. Although I had fun with it in
the beginning – occasionally being among the first to hear of medical and political breakthroughs would be
exciting for any 25-year-old –I realized that this was a job in which I would never be able to find my own voice. I had

5
Ngo Gia Tu High School – T: Nguyen Thi Quynh Hoa. Gifted student 12
Tel: 0987137677
always known that words would be my life in one form or another. My mother thought she’d given birth to an
alien when I began to talk at the age of seven months. That momentous day, she had placed my playpen in the
hallway and gone into the bedroom. In imitation of the words she had repeated to me again and again, I apparently
called out towards the bedroom door: ‘I see you. I see you.’ I was already in training for a career as a professional
parrot.
But how mistaken I was to think that international interpreting would be glamorous. The speaker rarely stops to
think that there’s someone at the back of the room, listening to his words, absorbing their meaning, and converting
them into another language at the same time. Often I was confronted with a drone, a whisperer or a mumble
through my headphones. The mumbles were the worst. Most of the time, an interpreter is thought of as a machine – a
funnel, a conduit, which, I suppose, is precisely what we are. Sometimes, when those we are translating for hear us
cough or sneeze, or turn round and look at us behind the smoky glass of the booth, I think they’re surprised to see that
we’re actually alive.
Ironically, part of the secret of interpreting is non-verbal communication. You have to sense when your partner is
tired, and offer to take over. At the same time, you have to be careful not to cut him short and hog the microphone.
Interpreters can be a bit like actors: they like to show off. You do develop friendships when you’re working in such
close proximity, but there’s a huge amount of competitiveness among interpreters. They check on each other and
sometimes even count each other’s mistranslations.
Translating other people’s ideas prevented me from feeling involved and creative as an interpreter. Actually, you can’t
be a creative interpreter. It’s a contradiction in terms. Sometimes, when I disagreed with a speaker, I wanted to rip
off my headphones, jump up and run out of the booth, shouting: ‘Rubbish. Rubbish. You’re talking a lot of nonsense,
and this is what I think about it.’ Instead, I had to sit there and regurgitate opinions in violent contradiction with my
own. Sometimes, I’d get my revenge by playing games with the speaker’s tone of voice. If he was being serious,
I’d make him sound jocular. If he was being light-hearted, I’d make him sound earnest.
Eventually, I wanted to find a career where my own words would matter and where my own voice would be
heard. So, to redress the balance, I decided to write a novel. While I was writing it, I did go back and interpret at a
few conferences to get inside the head of Dominique, my main character. At first, I was a little rusty and a couple
of the delegates turned round to glare at me, but after twenty minutes, I was back into it, playing that old game of
mental gymnastics. Interpreting is like learning to turn somersaults: you never forget how to do it. But for me, sitting
in the booth had a ghost-like quality to it – as though I had gone back into a past life - a life that belonged to the time
before I found my own voice.

Bài mẫu tham khảo:

Recent years have witnessed substantial advances in technology with the invention of the Internet as an epitome. An
increasing number of Internet users have agreed to provide their personal information to online websites for different
daily purposes. Despite the potential risks this tendency may pose, I still opine that the positive aspects are more
considerable.
Invasion of privacy and cyberbullying, on the one hand, are deemed the two most major concerns when it comes to the
digital age. For instance, one can be easily and constantly bothered by unwanted calls offering different goods and
services since his telephone number is publicized, which not only disturbs the recipient’s daily activities but also
causes unnecessary irritation, affecting work productivity. There are many other situations in which the credit card
information of users has been illegally stolen, resulting in a huge amount of money lost. Another case in point is that
many people, especially celebrities, can easily be bullied or harassed by hurtful or threatening comments and messages
posted by anti-fans. If their home or company addresses can be found online with just a few clicks away, those people
will even have to suffer from batteries in real life. 
Be that as it may, the fact that the availability of information online helps facilitate various life aspects should not be
ignored. First, daily activities can be carried out with more convenience. A typical example worth mentioning is
delivery service. It can be said that never have people been able to do shopping with such ease. Every purchasing
activity can take place online, and buyers only have to provide their mobile number as well as address in order to get
their items delivered at door. Governments have also been making use of information public on social media sites to

spot and track reactionaries or dangerous criminals so that the safety of society can be ensured. Another example is
that during the Covid-19 pandemic, those who evaded the quarantine protocol were all caught by authorities because
they often updated their activities on Facebook. 
In conclusion, although a person may be bothered or bullied by sharing their personal details online, this trend still
benefits each individual and the general public to a great extent as long as the Internet and  media literacy is
popularized.
