A striking feature of Viet Nam’s remarkable progress over the last few decades is
the rapid pace of urbanisation. In 1986, there were fewer than there are 30 million urban
residents. Today there are 30 million. Cities have become strong growth forces, with
urban areas growing twice as fast as the national average rate, and contributing over half
of the country’s gross domestic product.
Viet Nam needs to reshape its urbanization process to create more efficient cities
- cities that have sufficient population densities are well connected internally and
regionally, and well managed. In addition, in line with Viet Nam's strong preference for
social equity, cities will need to ensure inclusion of all residents, with no groups or area
“left behind."
Meanwhile, rural residents increasingly lag behind their urban counterparts in
income and access to services, leading many to migrate to cities. Migration presents
challenges for urban management but also opportunities to enhance labor mobility.
Fortunately, these trends can be reversed.
For example, four years ago, Alley 76 in Binh Thanh district, Ho Chi Minh City was
only narrow enough for one motorbike to get through. Store owner Bui Thi Mai knows
how a clean and efficient city can make or break a business. When it rained, the alley was
often flooded with floating garbage and mosquitoes. Crime was increasing. Today, after
undergoing major upgrading under an urban renewal project, the street is cleaner, safer
and trucks carry goods to her door. Her family income has soared and her life has been
completely changed.
36. Urbanisation in Viet Nam has _______.
A. mainly contributed to the country’s GDP
B. promoted the country’s economy twice as fast as before
C. made rural areas develop along with urban ones
D. made urban areas develop faster than the average
37. All of the following are necessary for efficient cities EXCEPT _______.
A. management decision B. sufficient working population

People who have mobile phones say that they can't live without them, but they
managed quite well before they had them. You cannot escape them; you hear them on
buses and trains, in street, at the supermarket, even in places where you expect it to be
quiet, like cinemas, theaters and libraries. Is there anything more annoying than having
to listen to unnecessarily loud voices talking to people who aren't there, while you are
trying to enjoy a pleasant diner at a "quiet" restaurant? I find it rude and antisocial. Even
school kids have mobile phones now. A teacher I know told me not long ago that lessons
were often interrupted by phones ringing.
More seriously, mobile phones can be dangerous. According
to the police, about a quarter of all road accidents are caused by people driving while
using mobile phones.
3. What is the writer's aim in the article?
A. To say what the police think about mobile phones

Ever since humans inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of
communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the
form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished
through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the
deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols
of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling,
however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally
or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only
joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised
dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps
and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and
techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.

A. tourists B. the deaf and the mute

underwater foundations ever built. The foundations were a real problem, because they
had to be cast in a depth of more than 100 feet. Extreme depth wasn't the sole
problem. The real challenge lay in the sinking of the piers in the violent waves of the
open sea, which was thought to be almost impossible the construction began in 1933
and was finished in 1937,when the bridge opened to pedestrians. ( It was opened to
cars one years later ). The bridge was finished ahead of schedule and cost much less
than was estimated.Today the Golden Gate Bridge has a main span of 4,200 feet (
almost a mile ) and a total length of 8,981 feet. The towers supporting the huge cables
rise 746 feet above the water. Each steel cable is 7,650 long and has a diameter of 36
inches.
''International orange '' is the color the bridge has always been painted. The
architects chose it because it blends well with the span's natural setting. However, if
the Navy had had its way, the bridge would have been painted black with yellow
stripes-in favor of greater visibility for passing ships. There are fog horns to let passing
ships know where the bridge is, and aircraf beacon on the tops of the towers to
prevent planes from crashing into them.
The Golden Gate Bridge is the first sight for many people approaching the United
States by boat. It is almost the West Coast's '' Stautue of Liberty'' and is something
everyone should at least once.

There are two main sources – sewage and industrial waste. As more detergent is
used in the home, so more of it is finally put into our rivers, lakes and seas.
Detergents harm water birds dissolving the natural substance which keep
their feather waterproof. Sewage itself, if it is not properly treated, makes the
water dirty and prevents all forms of life in rivers and the sea from receiving the
oxygen they need. Industrial waste is even more harmful since there are many
high poisonous things in it, such as copper and lead. So, if we want to stop this
pollution, the answer is simple, sewage and industrial waste must be made clean
before flowing into the water. It may already be too late to save some rivers and

For some parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for
their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as hazard and with good
guides, some education, and a few precautions, the wilds of the Internet can be
safely navigated. “Kids have to be online. If we tell our kids they can’t be allowed
to surf the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future,” said an expert. Most
kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of
interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not
want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain
software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way
would be to use what is known as a “content screener”. But this can’t be wholly
reliable, and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know
what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad
is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet. A few other tips as follows:
Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad
can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.
Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make
online.
Tell your child not to give online strangers personal information, especially
like address and phone number.
And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on line over the
phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with
them unless you go along.

The Development of Refrigeration
Cold storage, or refrigeration, is keeping food at temperatures between 32 and
45 degrees F in order to delay the growth of microorganisms - bacteria, molds, and
80
Intershine - Tiếng Anh cho học sinh phổ thông từ lớp 1 - 12 – 0982.953.166
yeast - that cause food to spoil. Refrigeration produces few changes in food, so
meats, fish, eggs, milk, fruits, and vegetables keep their original flavor, color, and
nutrition. Before artificial refrigeration was invented, people stored perishable
food with ice or snow to lengthen its storage time. Preserving food by keeping it in
an ice-filled pit is a 4,000-year-old art. Cold storage areas were built in basements,
cellars, or caves, lined with wood or straw, and packed with ice. The ice was
transported from mountains, or harvested from local lakes or rivers, and delivered
in large blocks to homes and businesses.
Artificial refrigeration is the process of removing heat from a substance,
container, or enclosed area, to lower its temperature. The heat is moved from the
inside of the container to the outside. A refrigerator uses the evaporation of a
volatile liquid, or refrigerant, to absorb heat. In most types of refrigerators, the
refrigerant is compressed, pumped through a pipe, and allowed to vaporize. As the
liquid turns to vapor, it loses heat and gets colder because the molecules of vapor
use energy to leave the liquid. The molecules left behind have less energy and so
the liquid becomes colder. Thus, the air inside the refrigerator is chilled.
Scientists and inventors from around the world developed artificial
refrigeration during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. William Cullen
demonstrated artificial refrigeration in Scotland in 1748, when he let ethyl ether
boil into a partial vacuum. In 1805, American inventor Oliver Evans designed the
first refrigeration machine that used vapor instead of liquid. In 1842, physician John
Gorrie used Evans's design to create an air-cooling apparatus to treat yellow-fever
patients in a Florida hospital. Gorrie later left his medical practice and
experimented with ice making, and in 1851 he was granted the first U.S. patent for
mechanical refrigeration. In the same year, an Australian printer, James Harrison,
built an ether refrigerator after noticing that when he cleaned his type with ether
it became very cold as the ether evaporated. Five years later, Harrison introduced
vapor-compression refrigeration to the brewing and meatpacking industries.
81
Intershine - Tiếng Anh cho học sinh phổ thông từ lớp 1 - 12 – 0982.953.166
Brewing was the first industry in the United States to use mechanical
refrigeration extensively, and in the 1870s, commercial refrigeration was primarily
directed at breweries. German-born Adolphus Busch was the first to use artificial
refrigeration at his brewery in St. Louis. Before refrigeration, brewers stored their
beer in caves, and production was constrained by the amount of available cave
space. Brewing was strictly a local business since beer was highly perishable and
shipping it any distance would result in spoilage. Busch solved the storage problem
with the commercial vapor- compression refrigerator. He solved the shipping
problem with the newly invented refrigerated railcar, which was insulated with ice
bunkers in each end. Air came in on the top, passed through the bunkers, and
circulated through the car by gravity. In solving Busch's spoilage and storage
problems, refrigeration also revolutionized an entire industry. By 1891, nearly
every brewery was equipped with mechanical refrigerating machines.
The refrigerators of today rely on the same basic principle of cooling caused
by the rapid evaporation and expansion of gases. Until 1929, refrigerators used
toxic gases - ammonia, methyl chloride, and sulfur dioxide - as refrigerants. After
those gases accidentally killed several people, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) became
the standard refrigerant. However, they were found to be harmful to the earth's
ozone layer, so refrigerators now use a refrigerant called HFC 134a, which is less

population booms. Throughout much of its history, western settlement had been
characterized by spurts, rather than by a pattern of gradual and steady population
growth, beginning with the gold and silver rushes of the 1850's and 1860's. The
decade after the First World War - the 1920's - witnessed another major surge of
people pouring into the West, particularly into urban areas. But the economic
depression of the 1930's brought this expansion to a halt; some of the more
sparsely settled parts of the region actually lost population as migrants sought
work in more heavily industrialized areas. By 1941 when the United States entered
the Second World War and began to mobilize, new job opportunities were created
in the western part of the nation.
If the expansion of industries, such as shipbuilding and aircraft manufacturing,
was most striking on the pacific coast, it also affected interior cities like Denver,
Phoenix, and Salt Lake City. Equally dramatic were the effects of the establishment
of aluminum plants in Oregon and Washington and the burgeoning steel industry
in Utah and California. The flow of people into these areas provided an enormous
impetus to the expansion of the service industries - banks, health care services and
schools. Although strained to the limit by the influx of newcomers, western
communities welcomed the vast reservoir of new job opportunities. At the same
time, the unprecedented expansion of government installations in the West, such
as military bases, created thousands of new civilian openings. As land had served
as a magnet for western migrants in the late nineteenth century, so wartime
mobilization set in motion another major expansion of population. Indeed, it could
be said that the entire western United States became a giant boomtown during the
Second World War. This was especially true of California. Of the more than eight
million people who moved into the West in the decade after 1940, almost one-half
went to the Pacific coast. In fact, between 1940 and 1950, California's population
surged by more than three million people.
