It was in 2005 that David, then a 30-year-old accountant, announced that he

was bored with Bristol and wanted a rural lite.
I struggled to understand his desire to leave. We enjoyed an active social life,
receiving countless invitations to other families’ houses with the children and we
loved to host our own dinner parties too. With my parents' help we were both able
to continue our passion for triathlons.
Life wasn’t always perfect: Bella hardly slept, so neither did I. I was
committed to a tiring two-hour daily commute.
Sleep-deprived, silly things would stress me out: there was no lift to reach our
flat and, on my own, it was impossible to get two toddlers with their buggies up
the stairs.
Over time. I convinced myself that a move to the country was the right thing to
do; this was my husband, after all, the father of my children. Quite simply, I’d go
to the ends of the earth for him. We'd start again. Somewhere beautiful.

V. Read the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F):
Many people from rural areas are leaving behind their traditional ways of life and moving to the city.
They believe that well-paying jobs are plentiful in the city.
At home on the farm, life is always a struggle with nature. Typhoons, floods or droughts can easily
destroy a harvest and leave the farmer with little or no money until the following year. Often farmers
look for other works when they need more money for their families.
The increase in population, however, has led to overcrowding in many cities. This puts a strain on
schools and hospitals, as well as water and electricity supplies. Increased pollution is another unpleasant
result. There is also a human side to this tragedy. Families sometimes have to live apart. In these cases,
children may live at home with relatives, while their parents go and live in an urban area.
Governments all over the world are trying to provide facilities for these migrants, but it can be quite
a problem.

New Zealand is an island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The country
geographically comprises two main landmasses - that of the North Island, and the South Island,-
and numerous smaller islands. Because of its remoteness, it was one of the last lands to be
settled by humans. During its long period of isolation. New Zealand developed a distinctive
biodiversity of animal, fungal and plant life. The country's sharp mountain peaks, such as the
Southern Alps, owe much to the uplift of land and volcanic eruptions. New Zealand's capital
city is Wellington, while its most populous city is Auckland.
The official languages are English, Maori and New Zealand Sign Language. English is the
predominant language in New' Zealand, spoken by 98 percent of the population. Many places
have both their Maori and English names officially recognized. New' Zealand Sign Language is

Louis Pasteur was a French chemist and microbiologist famous for his discoveries of the principles
of vaccination, microbial fermentation and pasteurization. He is remembered for his remarkable
breakthroughs in the causes and preventions of diseases, and his discoveries have saved countless lives
ever since. He reduced mortality from puerperal fever, and created the first vaccines for rabies and
anthrax. His medical discoveries provided direct support for the germ theory of disease and its
application in clinical medicine. He is best known to the general public for his invention of the
technique of treating milk and wine to stop bacterial contamination, a process now called pasteurization.
He is regarded as one of the three main founders of bacteriology, together with Ferdinand Cohn and
Robert Koch, and is popularly known as the "father of microbiology’'.
Pasteur also made significant discoveries in chemistry, most notably on the molecular basis for the
asymmetry of certain crystals and racemization. Early in his career, his investigation of tartaric acid
resulted in the first resolution of what we now call optical isomers. His work led the way to our current
understanding of a fundamental principal in the structure of organic compounds.

A telescope is an optical instrument that aids in the observation of remote objects. The first
known practical telescopes were invented in the Netherlands at the beginning of the 1600s.
by using glass lenses. They found use in both terrestrial applications and astronomy
Within a few decades, the reflecting telescope was invented, which used mirrors to collect
and focus the light. In the 20th century many new types of telescopes were invented,
including radio telescopes in the 1930s and infrared telescopes in the 1960s. The word
telescope now refers to a wide range of instruments capable of detecting different regions of
the electromagnetic spectrum, and in some cases other types of detectors.
The word telescope was invented in 1611 by the Greek mathematician Giovanni Demisiani
for one of Galileo Galilei’s instruments presented at a banquet at the Accademiadei Lincei.

Venus is the second planet from the Sun, orbiting it every 224.7 Earth days. It has the
longest rotation period (243 days) of any planet in the Solar System and rotates in the
opposite direction to most other planets. It has no natural satellite. It is named after the
Roman goddess of love and beauty. It is the second-brightest natural object in the night
sky after the Moon.
Venus is a terrestrial planet and is sometimes called Earth’s “sister planet” because of
their similar size, mass, proximity to the Sun, and bulk composition. It is radically
different from Earth in other respects. It has the densest atmosphere of the four terrestrial
planets, consisting of more than 96% carbon dioxide. The atmospheric pressure at the
planet’s surface is 92 times that of Earth. Venus is by far the hottest planet in the Solar
System, with a mean surface temperature of 462°c, even though Mercury is closer to the
Sun.
It has been made sacred to gods of many cultures, and has been a prime inspiration for
writers and poets as the “morning star” and “evening star”. Venus's thick clouds prevent
observation of its surface impossible in visible light; and the first detailed maps did not
emerge until 1991.

The idea of building a lunar outpost has long captured people's imaginations. But what would it really be
like to live on the moon?
Space exploration has long focused on the moon, with Earth’s satellite the setting for a number of
significant missions. A 1959 Soviet spacecraft photographed the moon’s far side for the first time, and in 1969,
NASA landed people on the lunar surface for the first time. Numerous missions followed, including NASA’s
Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter that beamed home the highest-resolution topographical lunar map to date,
covering 98.2% of the moon’s surface.
Altogether, data beamed back from numerous missions suggest that no place on the moon would be a
pleasant place to live, at least compared with Earth. Lunar days last for about 14 Earth days with average
temperatures of 123 °C, while lunar nights also last 14 Earth days and maintain a frigid cold of minus 233°c.
"The only place we could build a base that wouldn’t have to deal with these extremes is near the lunar
poles,” said Rick Elphic, project scientist for NASA’s LADEE probe. These areas likely store vast amounts of
water-ice and enjoy low levels of light from the sun for several months at a time.

A. On the moon, it’s very hot during the day and very cold at night.
B. Space exploration has just focused on the moon in recent years.
C. The most suitable place we could build a base is far from the lunar poles.
D. There is no water-ice on the moon.

29. Why the moon is not a pleasant place to live compared with Earth?
A. During the day, it’s too hot.
B. Lunar days or nights last much longer than Earth days.
C. At night, it’s too cold.

Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second-smallest planet in the Solar System, after Mercury.
Named after the Roman god of war, it is often referred to as the “Red Planef ’ because the iron oxide prevalent
on its surface gives it a reddish appearance. Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface
features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of
Earth.
The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that
produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second-highest known
mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in the Solar System. The
smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.
Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos, which are small and irregularly shaped. These may be captured
asteroids, similar to 5261 Eureka, a Mars trojan.

Body language is a kind of nonverbal communication, where thoughts, intentions, or feelings are expressed
by physical behaviors, such as facial expressions, body posture, gestures, eye movement, touch and the use of
space. Body language exists in both animals and humans, but this article focuses on interpretations of human
body language.
Body language must not be confused with sign language, as sign languages are full languages like spoken
languages and have their own complex grammar systems, as well as being able to exhibit the fundamental
properties that exist in all languages. Body language, on the other hand, does not have a grammar and must be
interpreted broadly, instead of having an absolute meaning corresponding with a certain movement, so it is not
a language like sign language, and is simply termed as a "language" due to popular culture.

are many entertainment facilities such as cinemas, parks, and so on. which allow people to relax more easily.

Hi Amy,
Glad that you’ve agreed to come to visit Vietnam.
There are some customs and traditions on Tet holiday.
Firstly, Tet is the time for family reunions, so people will try to return home no matter how busy they
are. On Tet, we should keep ourselves from getting angry or depressed and have happy smiles on our
faces for a happy new year. In addition, we shouldn’t say bad things or have ugly arguments with others.
Otherwise, you will encounter unlucky things all year. Lastly, Vietnamese people often avoid sweeping
the house or emptying the trash bin especially on the first day of the New Year because doing that will
make your money and luck out of your home.
However, don’t worry about these because you’re our special guest.-
See you soon.

Dear Minh,
It'S great to know that your family had a good time in Thailand. We also had a wonderful time in
Thailand last April. We were lucky to be there right at the time of the Songkran Festival. We visited a
local temple and performed water pouring on Buddha statues, which was considered an iconic ritual of
this holiday, so many people did it. We also gathered in major streets, which were closed for the
festival, and splashed water on each other. Although we got soaked, I liked it very much because I felt I
was totally free when I was doing that. We took some great pictures while we were joining this festival
Hope to see you soon to show you the pictures we took there.
Love,
Mai
