In little more than two hundred years, Sydney has grown to become the most
multicultural city is Australia. The first group of immigrants came from Europe, then in
1970s, most of Australia’s immigrants came from Asia. Today the population of Sydney
is more than four million, and the culture of the city is a combination of cultures of the
people who live there.
The climate, with almost eight months of good weather, makes Sydney the
perfect city for outdoor life. The city has more than 30 beaches along the 37 miles (60
kilometres) of its coast. In Sydney harbour, one of the world’s most spectacular bays,
you can find the Sydney Opera House, Australia’s most well- known building. Passing
by the Opera House is a constant parade of small boats, yachts, ferries, and enormous
cruise ships.
In Sydney, a California lifestyle has been combined with European influences in
its cafés, movie theatres, theatres, and concert halls. Shorts and sandals are the most
popular clothes to wear, and bear a barbecues are everywhere.

Question 54-56: Read the following passage. Choose the correct answers.
Sometimes bad luck is good luck. Forrest Highstone has a history of terrible
accidents but always survives. He thinks he is pretty lucky.
The first accident happened when he was fifteen. He fell off his bicycle and broke
his arm. He had to take a bus home from the hospital, which drove off a bridge into a
river. Everyone on the bus died except for Forrest who, amazingly, was not injured.
The next accident happened when he took an airplane for the first time. Forrest
stood up to walk to the back of the plane. Suddenly, one of the doors opened and Forrest
was sucked out of the plane. Fourteen other passengers died but, incredibly, Forrest
survived when he fell into a lake.
He was also struck by lightning on a fishing trip. Surprisingly, he was fine, but
he lost most of his hair. “I know it’s strange but I think I’m pretty lucky,” says Forrest.
“I have terrible accidents but I survive! The strange thing is that all my accidents happen
near water.” Last year Forrest won a vacation on a cruise ship in the Caribbean Sea. He
decided not to go. “I didn’t want to test my luck,” he said.

Question 57-60: Read the following passage. Choose the correct answers.
There are lots of clothes shops in the Bluewater shopping centre in the south of
England, so it’s easy to find fashionable hooded tops for sale there. However, you can’t
wear a hooded top while you’re looking, because they are banned. The shopping centre
believes that teenagers who wear hooded tops often use them to hide their faces while
they’re behaving badly. That’s why the new rule bans people wearing hooded tops from
the shopping centre. Baseball caps are also banned. And the managers of the shopping
centre say that their new rules are working. More people are shopping there, and trouble-
makers are staying away.

Mã đề 1 -Trang 4/8
 The Bluewater shopping Centre is not the only place in the UK where certain
clothes are banned. Students at Maesteg Comprehensive School in Wales are not allowed
to wear hooded tops because the head teacher believes that they cause bad behaviour. If
students wear hooded tops to school, the teachers take them away, and don’t give them
back until the end of term. Most of the parents agree with this new rule.
However, many people, especially young people believe that these rules are silly
and unfair. They say that baseball caps and hooded tops are important part of teenager
fashion, and it’s impossible to judge a person’s personality from the clothes they wear.
The head teacher of Combeshead of College in the south of England agrees. In facts,
hooded tops are now part of the school uniform at Combeshead College.
Many adults believe that young people’s behaviour is getting worse. One
politician, Lord Ashley said, “Children are ten times worse than in the past,” However,
he said that in 1823! The generation gap is nothing new.
