Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
Smart cards and mobile phones are becoming an increasingly popular way to make all sorts of
payments. Even now, in Japan thousands of transactions, from paying rail tickets to picking up the
groceries, take place every day with customers passing their handsets across a small flat-screen
device. And predictions in the world of finance reckon that payments using mobile phones will have
risen to more than $50 billion in the very near future.
What's the appeal of e-cash? Compared to cheques or credit cards, it offers the speed of
cash, but more so. It takes just one tenth of a second to complete most transactions and as no change
is required, errors in counting are eliminated. Fraud and theft are also reduced and for the retailer, it
reduces the cost of handling money. Sony's vision of having a chip embedded in computers, TVs and
games consoles means that films, music and games can be paid for easily without having to input
credit card details.
And what about the future of the banks? Within their grip on the market, banks and credit-
card firms want to be in a position to collect most of the fees from the users of mobile and
contactless-payment systems. But the new system could prove to be a "disruptive technology" as far
as the banks are concerned. If payments for a few coffees, a train ticket and a newspaper are made
every day by a commuter with a mobile, this will not appear on their monthly credit card statements
but on their mobile phone statements. And having spent fortunes on branding, credit-card companies
and banks do not want to see other payment systems gaining popularity. It's too early to say whether
banks will miss out and if so, by how much. However, quite a few American bankers are optimistic.
They feel there is reason to be suspicious of those who predict that high-street banks may be a thing
of the past. They point out that Internet banking did not result in the closure of their high-street
branches as was predicted. On the contrary, more Americans than ever are using local branches. So,
whether we'll become a totally cash-free society remains open to contention.
Câu 31: What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

A. The increasing popularity of new payment methods.
B. The absence of traditional payment methods.
C. Japan's advanced forms of payment.
D. Predictions of future payment methods.
Câu 32: Why does the author mention "a small flat-screen device" in the first paragraph?
A. to criticize the e-cash system B. to inform the e-cash system
C. to exemplify the e-cash system D. to praise the e-cash system
Câu 33: Which of the following is NOT true about the strong point of e-cash?
A. faster speed B. reduced cost C. fewer mistakes D. no fraud
Câu 34: The word "embedded” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _____.
A. isolated B. generated C. manufactured D. integrated
Câu 35: The word "grip" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A. success B. power C. range of branches D. wealth
Câu 36: The author mentions the case of commuters in the third paragraph to illustrate ________.
A. the transferability of the system
B. the modern technology of the e-cash system
C. the banks' cooperation with credit-card companies
D. a possible drawback of the system
Câu 37: The word "their” in the third paragraph refers to ________.
A. Internet banking B. American bankers C. credit cards D. high-street hanks
Câu 38: How does the writer seem to feel about the future of banks?
A. uncertain B. pessimistic C. optimistic D. neutral

The Singapore Science Centre is located on a six-hectare site in Jurong. At the centre, we can
discover the wonders of science and technology in a fun way. Clap your hands and colorful bulbs will

The centre features over four hundred exhibits covering topics like solar radiation, communication,
electronics, mathematics, nuclear energy and evolution. It aims to arouse interest in science and

visitors a day. The exhibits can be found in four exhibition galleries. They are the Lobby, Physical

feel the exhibits, push the buttons, turn the cranks or pedals. This is an interesting way to learn
science even if you hate the subject. A Discovery Centre was built for children between the ages of

Except for a few unfortunate individuals, no law in this world can go against the fact that for most of
us our family is an essential part of our lives. The moment you enter this cruel world, where each man is
for himself, there are some near and dear ones out there who will do anything to ensure your happiness.
We are nothing more than a vulnerable and fragile object, without someone taking care of us on our
arrival in this world. Despite all the odds, your family will take care of your wellbeing, and try their best
to provide you the greatest comforts in the world. No one out there, except your family must forgive the
endless number of mistakes you may make in your life. Apart from teaching you forgive and forget
lessons, they are always there for you, when you need them the most.
Family is the only place where children study a lot after school. In school, teachers teach children
about the subjects which will help them to find a good job in future. But at home, parents teach children
about good habits. They are not only the elements which help the children to shape their personalities but
they also prepare them a suitable and bright future.
A good family makes a greater society. Father, mother, and children have to work in order to build a
strong family. If any one of them fails, the whole family may collapse. The good name of the whole
family can be ruined by a single member of the family. In order to avoid that unhappy scenario, every
family member has to work hard and try their best. As a result, they will set good examples for the whole
society. Families have a powerful impact on society and societies create countries.

family and society?

B. A family member will be unhappy to try his best.

Swine influenza (also called swine flu, hog flu and pig flu) is an infection of a host animal by any one of
several specific types of microscopic organisms called “swine influenza virus”. A swine influenza virus
(SIV) is any strain of the influenza family of viruses that is usually hosted by (is endemic in) pigs. As of
2009, the known SIV strains are the influenza C virus and the subtypes of the influenza A virus known as
H1N1, H1N2, H3N1, H3N2 and H2N3. Swine influenza is common in pigs in the mid-western United
States (and occasionally in other states), Mexico, Canada, South America, Europe (including the UK,
Sweden and Italy), Kenya, Mainland China, Taiwan, Japan and other parts of eastern Asia.
Transmission of swine influenza virus from pigs to humans is not common and does not always cause
human influenza, often only resulting in the production of antibodies in the blood. The meat of the
animal poses no risk of transmitting the virus when properly cooked. If transmission does cause human
influenza, it is called zoonotic swine flu. People who work with pigs, especially people
with intense exposures, are at increased risk of catching swine flu. In the mid-20th century, identification
of influenza subtypes became possible, this allows accurate diagnosis of transmission to humans. Since
then, fifty confirmed transmissions have been recorded, rarely, these strains of swine flu can pass from
human to human. In humans, the symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of influenza and of influenza-
like illness in general, namely chills, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, weakness
and general discomfort.
The 2009 flu outbreak in humans, known as “swine flu’, is due to a new strain of influenza A virus
subtype H1N1 that contains genes closely related to swine influenza. The origin of this new strain is
unknown. However, the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) reports that this strain has not been
isolated in pigs. This strain can be transmitted from human to human, and causes the normal symptoms of
influenza.

The American type of football was developed in the 19th century from soccer and rugby football. Played
by professionals, amateurs, college and high school students, or young children, football in American is
one of the most popular sports besides basketball and baseball. It attracts millions of fans each fall and
people are very supportive of their favorite teams. The football playing field of today is rectangular in
shape and measures 100 yards long and 53.5 yards wide. White lines are painted on the playing field to
mark off the distances to the end zone. The games is divided into four quarters, each fifteen minutes long.
The first two quarters are known as the first half. There is a rest period between two halves which usually
last about fifteen minutes. Each team has eleven players. Each team has offensive players who play when
the team has possession of the ball and defensive players who play when the other team has the possession
of the ball. Because of the body contact players have during the game, helmets are worn to protect their
head and face area, whereas pads are worn to protect the shoulders, arms, and legs. Also, there are officials
carrying whistles and flags to make certain that the rules of the game are followed during the game. The
football is made of leather and is brown in color. It is shaped much like an oval and has white rings near
each end of the football. These rings help the players see the ball when it is thrown or someone is running
with it. The eight stitches on the top of the football help the players to grip the ball when throwing or
passing. The most famous game of the year is Super Bowl that is played in January or February. It is
televised around the world and is watched by millions of people each year.

Visitors to London are struck by the proud splendour and glamour of one of the world's
oldest capitals, admiring iconic sites like Big Ben, the Palace of Westminster and Buckingham
Palace. However, visitors seeking a glimpse into the city's everyday life should not miss
Portobello Market, which is the most-visited market in London.
This vibrant market has been featured in a number of films, documentaries and best-
selling books, the most famous being the film ''Notting Hill'' starring Hugh Grant and Julia
Roberts, which brought Portobello Market to the attention of audiences all over the world.
Portobello Market is divided into different sections selling second-hand items, clothing,
jewellery, souvenirs and vegetables. The most sought-after area is devoted to antiques. Visitors
may feel overwhelmed as there are over 1,000 booths manned by antique dealers from throughout
England. It's a great fun to browse through antique cameras, watches, pottery and paintings that
date back 300 years. They are sold at different prices, so it's possible to find a few good bargains.
It seems that both buyers and sellers look forward to the weekends when they can meet and
escape the city's fast pace at Portobello Market.
When tired from exploring the market, visitors can drop into the nearby food courts to
savour an Indian curry, Italian pizza or sandwiches from Europe. It's a great pleasure to drink a
cappuccino while listening to street performers. These represent the lively fun of Portobello
Market, offering exciting experiences that keep people coming back.

Cambridge University is considering axing compulsory written exams, allowing students
to use laptops or iPads instead, after tutors complained that students' handwriting is becoming
illegible. Academics say the move, which would bring an end to over 800 years of tradition, has
come about because students rely too heavily on laptops in lectures, and are losing the ability to
write by hand.
Dr Sarah Pearsall, a senior lecturer at Cambridge University, said handwriting is becoming
a ''lost art'' among the current generation of students. She added, ''It's increasingly hard for our
examiners to read students' scripts. Those with illegible writing are forced to come back to their
college during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud in the presence of two university
administrators. It's extraordinarily commendable that the University is considering reforms to its
examination practices.''
Sir Anthony Seldon, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Buckingham, said it is
inevitable that universities will move to computers as handwriting deteriorates in the coming

years. ''We have to accept the reality. Handwriting has now become an optional, not a necessary,
part of education. There simply isn't the same time in the curriculum for learning elegant,
beautiful handwriting. Life is so quick now. Everybody writes as if they were a doctor writing a
prescription,'' he said. ''Handwriting is not necessary for great thought, great English, or great
intelligence. Some of our finest wordsmiths today write using laptops, and we have to fight to
preserve what is really important, such as the use of great English or great sentence structures.''
Others, however, were not very positive about the move. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting
expert, urged Cambridge to ensure that students continue to write by hand. She said, ''It's vital that
people continue to write by hand. Writing by hand improves memory and equates to a higher rate of
comprehension and information retention.'' There is also concern that schools could follow
Cambridge's example by moving away from handwriting. Dr Jane Medwell, Associate Professor of
Education at the University of Nottingham, is concerned that scrapping handwritten exams in
universities could prompt ''downward curriculum pressure'' on primary and secondary schools to
follow suit.

Visitors to London are struck by the proud splendour and glamour of one of the world's
oldest capitals, admiring iconic sites like Big Ben, the Palace of Westminster and Buckingham
Palace. However, visitors seeking a glimpse into the city's everyday life should not miss
Portobello Market, which is the most-visited market in London.
This vibrant market has been featured in a number of films, documentaries and best-
selling books, the most famous being the film ''Notting Hill'' starring Hugh Grant and Julia
Roberts, which brought Portobello Market to the attention of audiences all over the world.
Portobello Market is divided into different sections selling second-hand items, clothing,
m
jewellery, souvenirs and vegetables. The most sought-after area is devoted to antiques. Visitors
c o
may feel overwhelmed as there are over 1,000 booths manned by antique dealers from throughout
.
England. It's a great fun to browse through antique cameras, watches, pottery and paintings that
7
date back 300 years. They are sold at different prices, so it's possible to find a few good bargains.
4
It seems that both buyers and sellers look forward to the weekends when they can meet and
h2
escape the city's fast pace at Portobello Market.
When tired from exploring the market, visitors can drop into the nearby food courts to
i n
savour an Indian curry, Italian pizza or sandwiches from Europe. It's a great pleasure to drink a
ns
cappuccino while listening to street performers. These represent the lively fun of Portobello
Market, offering exciting experiences that keep people coming back.

Cambridge University is considering axing compulsory written exams, allowing students
to use laptops or iPads instead, after tutors complained that students' handwriting is becoming
illegible. Academics say the move, which would bring an end to over 800 years of tradition, has
come about because students rely too heavily on laptops in lectures, and are losing the ability to
write by hand.
Dr Sarah Pearsall, a senior lecturer at Cambridge University, said handwriting is becoming
a ''lost art'' among the current generation of students. She added, ''It's increasingly hard for our
examiners to read students' scripts. Those with illegible writing are forced to come back to their
college during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud in the presence of two university
administrators. It's extraordinarily commendable that the University is considering reforms to its
examination practices.''
Sir Anthony Seldon, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Buckingham, said it is
inevitable that universities will move to computers as handwriting deteriorates in the coming

years. ''We have to accept the reality. Handwriting has now become an optional, not a necessary,
part of education. There simply isn't the same time in the curriculum for learning elegant,
beautiful handwriting. Life is so quick now. Everybody writes as if they were a doctor writing a
prescription,'' he said. ''Handwriting is not necessary for great thought, great English, or great
intelligence. Some of our finest wordsmiths today write using laptops, and we have to fight to
preserve what is really important, such as the use of great English or great sentence structures.''
Others, however, were not very positive about the move. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting
expert, urged Cambridge to ensure that students continue to write by hand. She said, ''It's vital that
people continue to write by hand. Writing by hand improves memory and equates to a higher rate of
m
comprehension and information retention.'' There is also concern that schools could follow
o
Cambridge's example by moving away from handwriting. Dr Jane Medwell, Associate Professor of
c
Education at the University of Nottingham, is concerned that scrapping handwritten exams in
7.
universities could prompt ''downward curriculum pressure'' on primary and secondary schools to
4
follow suit.
