VI. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each

The greenhouse effect is always reported as being a negative consequence of current human lifestyle
practices. However there certainly have been numerous suggestions of positive consequences of the
greenhouse effect.
A slight temperature increase in some of the colder parts of the world may improve conditions for
agriculture and changing rainfall patterns may favor some species over others. However, they do not balance
with overall negative impacts. The social, economic and ecological disorders brought about by such climatic
changes worldwide are projected to greatly outweigh regional benefits.
The impacts of global warming and climate change could become a source of increased tension
between nations and regions. While the developed, industrialized world is responsible for 75% of all CO2
emissions, these impacts will most likely hit hardest upon the poorer, underdeveloped parts of the world. For
example, as sea levels rise countries like Bangladesh will suffer much more from the loss of valuable and
populated lands than European or North American countries, even though they have emitted only a tiny
fraction of the greenhouse gases.
The effect of drowning coastlines could lead to hundreds of millions of climate refugees. Where will
these refugees go? How will they be cared for? Undoubtedly, such a disaster will seriously worsen the
already critical refugee problem in the world. A severe disorder of the world's food supplies through floods,
droughts, crop failures and diseases brought about by climate change would lead to famines, wars and civil
disorder in many countries.
1. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Greenhouse effect brings us more benefits than negative impacts.
B. Greenhouse effect brings us more negative impacts than benefits.
C. Current reports on the greenhouse effect are not accurate.

A. The developed countries are a source of disasters upon the underdeveloped countries.
B. The developed countries head lots of climate refugees to the underdeveloped countries.
C. The developed countries will suffer more than the underdeveloped countries.
D. The European or North American countries will lose more valuable and populated lands.
4. The word "tiny" in the passage is closest in meaning to ____.
A. large B. small C. much D. considerable
5. According to the passage, climate change will result in all of the following EXCEPT ____.
A. coastline disorder B. refugee problem C. famine D. crop failure

VI. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions.
Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course
which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities
the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course
consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably
attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years
attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer
period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course,
though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.
For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is
available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of
Trang 8
work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to
positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective word of maintaining discipline is
usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have
broken the rules, for
example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the
operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these
positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.

V. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each

In 1959, the government of Egypt was working on a plan to build a dam on the River Nile. It was
called the Aswan Dam, and it was intended to generate electricity and allow the river water to be used for
agriculture. There was one big problem with the plan, though. The dam would flood a nearby valley that
contained ancient Egyptian treasures, including two enormous stone temples.
It can be difficult for governments to choose culture and history over economics. However, if
countrics always made decisions like this, the majority of the world's ancient sites would end up being
destroyed. Luckily, UNESCO stepped in. They formed a committee that tried to convince Egypt to protect
Trang 12
its ancient treasures. With support from many countries, they were finally successful. The huge temples were
carefully removed from their original site and moved to a safe location so that the dam could be built.
UNESCO is an agency of the United Nations. The United Nations is a partnership between countries
from all over the world. They are joined to help promote world peace, enforce human rights, and help
countries develop. UNESCO is a part of the United Nations that is concerned with science and culture.
After their success in saving the temples in Egypt, UNESCO went on to save more sites around the
world. They protected lagoons in Venice, ruins in Pakistan, and temples in Indonesia. With industrialization
changing the world rapidly, there were many sites that needed to be saved. Eventually, UNESCO formed
the World Heritage Organization to protect important natural and historic sites wherever it was necessary.
By now, the World Heritage Organization has protected hundreds of sites ranging from beautiful
natural islands to buildings in large cities to ancient ruins. If you're able to visit any of the many protected
sites, you'll agree it was worth it.

V. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions.
Around the world, Rio de Janeiro is famous for its beautiful beaches and Carnival celebration. But
the city is also known for its poor areas, known as favelas. For years, many favelas had high poverty and
crime rates. However, things are starting to change.
In the past, many favelas received very little government assistance. Neighborhood residents had to
build their own streets and homes. Gangs were also com guns. However, a new government plan is starting
to change this. The city is sending thousands of police officers into favelas with the goal of driving out the
gangs. In some favelas, the plan is already working. Crime is down, and unlike in the past, children arc
playing in the streets again. New apartment buildings are being built, and the city is providing more services.
"In 20 years," says police officer Leonardo Nogueira, "the children who live here now ... will be different
people."
Police influence is changing the favelas, but something else is, too. Today, more Brazilians are
moving into these neighborhoods because housing is expensive in other parts of Rio. "Favelas are a place for
young doctors without much money to get started and young architects to start working,” explains Simone
Miranda, a Rio tour guide. In the past, favela residents felt different - separate from the rest of Rio. “But
now," says Miranda, "they feel part of the society of Brazil.”
Life is improving in the favelas, but there are still challenges. In some areas, poverty rates are still
high. As students, families, and foreigners move into the favelas, property costs skyrocket. In some places,
housing has more than doubled in price. Despite this, favela residents are hopeful. If Rio can develop these
favelas for all residents – both poor and middle class - the city could become a model for other cities with
similar problems.
1. Which of the following best serves as the title for this passage?

VII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
In 1960, Americans spent 10% of their healthcare dollar on medicines. Most of the money came from
their own pockets, and was spent on drugs that largely treated infections heart disease, arthritis and
depression. Beyond that, there was little that science could offer. Today, the range of diseases for which
medical research has some partial treatment is vast. Despite this, and the double digit increase in drug
spending - 75%-90% of which is paid for by insurance companies - prescription drugs now account for 9%
of total health expenditures.
Similarly, claims by insurers and corporations - that drug costs are driving insurance costs up in
general - are overstated. According to health analyst J.D. Kleinke, since pharmacy costs represent only 9%
of all spending, even increases of 20% could not be responsible for insurance premium increases of 10%-
15% over the last two years: Premiums have been increasing far out of proportion to increasing total medical
costs over the past three years.
The fact is we should spend more on newer, more expensive medicines because they are worth the
investment. Medical innovation creates what Harvard economist David Cutler calls health capital — the
ability of people to stay well early and consistently throughout their lives, and remain that way at an
increasingly older age. In fact, under the most conservative assumption, the U.S would have needed only
about 30% of the improvement in medical progress over the period in time. In the case of congestive heart

technologies generated longer life, more productivity and lower health costs that offset the cost of their
development and consumption.
