I. 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.
A team of social psychologists from California has spent six years studying the reactions of people in
cities around the world to different situations. The results show that cities where people have less money
generally have friendlier populations. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, which is often known for its crime, comes
out top, Vientiane ranks second, and the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe, comes third.
But what makes one city friendlier than another? The psychologists from California State University
say it has got more to do with environment than culture or nationality.
They carried out a study into the way locals treated strangers in 23 cities around the world. The team
conducted their research through a series of tests, where they dropped pens or pretended they were blind
and needed help crossing the street.
The study concludes that people are more helpful in cities with a more relaxed way of life such as Rio.
While they were there, researchers received help in 93 percent of cases, and the percentage in Lilongwe
was only a little lower. However, richer cities such as Amsterdam and New York are considered the least
friendly. Inhabitants of Amsterdam helped the researchers in 53 percent of cases and in New York just 44
percent. The psychologists found that, in these cities, people tend to be short of time, so they hurry and
often ignore strangers.

In 1996, three men in California were taken to a hospital with strange symptoms. They felt dizzy,
tired, and weak. They couldn't speak, and they had trouble breathing. The hospital doctors thought the men
had been poisoned, but couldn't work out what was wrong with them. Then they found out the three men
were all chefs, and they had just shared a dish of fugu.
Fugu, a Japanese name for the puffer fish, is one of the strangest fish in the ocean. The puffer fish gets
its name from the way the fish protects itself from enemies. The reason the three men were taken to the
hospital is because the puffer fish is also very poisonous. As a rule, if you eat a whole puffer fish, you will
probably die. The three men had a close call, but they all survived.
The symptoms of fugu poisoning are a strange feeling around the mouth and throat and difficulty
breathing. You can't breathe and your body can't get any air. Your brain still works perfectly, however, so
you know you are dying, but you can't speak or do anything about it.
Despite the danger of fugu poisoning, this strange, ugly, and very poisonous fish is actually a very
expensive, and very popular kind of food in Japan. Customers pay up to $200 per person to eat a fugu
meal. Because of the danger, fugu can only be prepared by chefs with a special license from the
government. These chefs are trained to identify and remove the poisonous parts of the fish. Most people
who die from eating fugu these days are people who have tried their hand at preparing the fish themselves.
Fugu is said to be so delicious that it has even started to be imported into Hong Kong and the United
States. Several tons of fugu are now exported from Japan every year.

In 1996, three men in California were taken to a hospital with strange symptoms. They felt dizzy,
tired, and weak. They couldn't speak, and they had trouble breathing. The hospital doctors thought the men
had been poisoned, but couldn't work out what was wrong with them. Then they found out the three men
were all chefs, and they had just shared a dish of fugu.
Fugu, a Japanese name for the puffer fish, is one of the strangest fish in the ocean. The puffer fish gets
its name from the way the fish protects itself from enemies. The reason the three men were taken to the
hospital is because the puffer fish is also very poisonous. As a rule, if you eat a whole puffer fish, you will
probably die. The three men had a close call, but they all survived.
The symptoms of fugu poisoning are a strange feeling around the mouth and throat and difficulty
breathing. You can't breathe and your body can't get any air. Your brain still works perfectly, however, so
you know you are dying, but you can't speak or do anything about it.
Despite the danger of fugu poisoning, this strange, ugly, and very poisonous fish is actually a very
expensive, and very popular kind of food in Japan. Customers pay up to $200 per person to eat a fugu
meal. Because of the danger, fugu can only be prepared by chefs with a special license from the
government. These chefs are trained to identify and remove the poisonous parts of the fish. Most people
who die from eating fugu these days are people who have tried their hand at preparing the fish themselves.

generally have friendlier populations. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, which is often known for its crime, comes
out top, Vientiane ranks second, and the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe, comes third.
But what makes one city friendlier than another? The psychologists from California State University
say it has got more to do with environment than culture or nationality.
They carried out a study into the way locals treated strangers in 23 cities around the world. The team
conducted their research through a series of tests, where they dropped pens or pretended they were blind
and needed help crossing the street.
The study concludes that people are more helpful in cities with a more relaxed way of life such as Rio.
While they were there, researchers received help in 93 percent of cases, and the percentage in Lilongwe
was only a little lower. However, richer cities such as Amsterdam and New York are considered the least
friendly. Inhabitants of Amsterdam helped the researchers in 53 percent of cases and in New York just 44
percent. The psychologists found that, in these cities, people tend to be short of time, so they hurry and
often ignore strangers.
42. What is the best title of the passage?

in cities around the world to different situations. The results show that cities where people have less money
generally have friendlier populations. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, which is often known for its crime, comes
out top, Vientiane ranks second, and the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe, comes third.
But what makes one city friendlier than another? The psychologists from California State
University say it has got more to do with environment than culture or nationality.
They carried out a study into the way locals treated strangers in 23 cities around the world. The
team conducted their research through a series of tests, where they dropped pens or pretended they were
blind and needed help crossing the street.
The study concludes that people are more helpful in cities with a more relaxed way of life such as Rio.
While they were there, researchers received help in 93 percent of cases, and the percentage in Lilongwe
was only a little lower. However, richer cities such as Amsterdam and New York are considered the least
friendly. Inhabitants of Amsterdam helped the researchers in 53 percent of cases and in New York just 44
percent. The psychologists found that, in these cities, people tend to be short of time, so they hurry and
often ignore strangers.

VIII. 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.
In 1996, three men in California were taken to a hospital with strange symptoms. They felt dizzy,
tired, and weak. They couldn't speak, and they had trouble breathing. The hospital doctors thought the men
had been poisoned, but couldn't work out what was wrong with them. Then they found out the three men
were all chefs, and they had just shared a dish of fugu.
Fugu, a Japanese name for the puffer fish, is one of the strangest fish in the ocean. The puffer fish gets
its name from the way the fish protects itself from enemies. The reason the three men were taken to the
hospital is because the puffer fish is also very poisonous. As a rule, if you eat a whole puffer fish, you will
probably die. The three men had a close call, but they all survived.
The symptoms of fugu poisoning are a strange feeling around the mouth and throat and difficulty
breathing. You can't breathe and your body can't get any air. Your brain still works perfectly, however, so
you know you are dying, but you can't speak or do anything about it.
Despite the danger of fugu poisoning, this strange, ugly, and very poisonous fish is actually a very
expensive, and very popular kind of food in Japan. Customers pay up to $200 per person to eat a fugu
meal. Because of the danger, fugu can only be prepared by chefs with a special license from the
government. These chefs are trained to identify and remove the poisonous parts of the fish. Most people
who die from eating fugu these days are people who have tried their hand at preparing the fish themselves.
Fugu is said to be so delicious that it has even started to be imported into Hong Kong and the United
States. Several tons of fugu are now exported from Japan every year.

C. speaking difficulty D. tiredness and weakness

In 1996, three men in California were taken to a hospital with strange symptoms. They felt dizzy,
tired, and weak. They couldn't speak, and they had trouble breathing. The hospital doctors thought the men
had been poisoned, but couldn't work out what was wrong with them. Then they found out the three men
were all chefs, and they had just shared a dish of fugu.
Fugu, a Japanese name for the puffer fish, is one of the strangest fish in the ocean. The puffer fish gets
its name from the way the fish protects itself from enemies. The reason the three men were taken to the
hospital is because the puffer fish is also very poisonous. As a rule, if you eat a whole puffer fish, you will
probably die. The three men had a close call, but they all survived.
The symptoms of fugu poisoning are a strange feeling around the mouth and throat and difficulty
breathing. You can't breathe and your body can't get any air. Your brain still works perfectly, however, so
you know you are dying, but you can't speak or do anything about it.
Despite the danger of fugu poisoning, this strange, ugly, and very poisonous fish is actually a very
expensive, and very popular kind of food in Japan. Customers pay up to $200 per person to eat a fugu
meal. Because of the danger, fugu can only be prepared by chefs with a special license from the
government. These chefs are trained to identify and remove the poisonous parts of the fish. Most people
who die from eating fugu these days are people who have tried their hand at preparing the fish themselves.

A team of social psychologists from California has spent six years studying the reactions of people in

generally have friendlier populations. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, which is often known for its crime, comes
out top, Vientiane ranks second, and the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe, comes third.
But what makes one city friendlier than another? The psychologists from California State University
say it has got more to do with environment than culture or nationality.
They carried out a study into the way locals treated strangers in 23 cities around the world. The team
conducted their research through a series of tests, where they dropped pens or pretended they were blind
and needed help crossing the street.
The study concludes that people are more helpful in cities with a more relaxed way of life such as Rio.
While they were there, researchers received help in 93 percent of cases, and the percentage in Lilongwe
was only a little lower. However, richer cities such as Amsterdam and New York are considered the least
friendly. Inhabitants of Amsterdam helped the researchers in 53 percent of cases and in New York just 44
percent. The psychologists found that, in these cities, people tend to be short of time, so they hurry and
often ignore strangers.

I. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the

A team of social psychologists from California has spent six years studying the reactions of people in
cities around the world to different situations. The results show that cities where people have less money
generally have friendlier populations. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, which is often known for its crime, comes
out top, Vientiane ranks second, and the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe, comes third.
But what makes one city friendlier than another? The psychologists from California State University
say it has got more to do with environment than culture or nationality.
They carried out a study into the way locals treated strangers in 23 cities around the world. The team
conducted their research through a series of tests, where they dropped pens or pretended they were blind
and needed help crossing the street.
The study concludes that people are more helpful in cities with a more relaxed way of life such as Rio.
While they were there, researchers received help in 93 percent of cases, and the percentage in Lilongwe
was only a little lower. However, richer cities such as Amsterdam and New York are considered the least
friendly. Inhabitants of Amsterdam helped the researchers in 53 percent of cases and in New York just 44

In 1996, three men in California were taken to a hospital with strange symptoms. They felt dizzy,

had been poisoned, but couldn't work out what was wrong with them. Then they found out the three men
were all chefs, and they had just shared a dish of fugu.
Fugu, a Japanese name for the puffer fish, is one of the strangest fish in the ocean. The puffer fish gets
its name from the way the fish protects itself from enemies. The reason the three men were taken to the
hospital is because the puffer fish is also very poisonous. As a rule, if you eat a whole puffer fish, you will

The symptoms of fugu poisoning are a strange feeling around the mouth and throat and difficulty
breathing. You can't breathe and your body can't get any air. Your brain still works perfectly, however, so
you know you are dying, but you can't speak or do anything about it.
Despite the danger of fugu poisoning, this strange, ugly, and very poisonous fish is actually a very
expensive, and very popular kind of food in Japan. Customers pay up to $200 per person to eat a fugu
meal. Because of the danger, fugu can only be prepared by chefs with a special license from the
government. These chefs are trained to identify and remove the poisonous parts of the fish. Most people
who die from eating fugu these days are people who have tried their hand at preparing the fish themselves.
Fugu is said to be so delicious that it has even started to be imported into Hong Kong and the United

VII. 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.
In 1996, three men in California were taken to a hospital with strange symptoms. They felt dizzy,
tired, and weak. They couldn't speak, and they had trouble breathing. The hospital doctors thought the men
had been poisoned, but couldn't work out what was wrong with them. Then they found out the three men
were all chefs, and they had just shared a dish of fugu.
Fugu, a Japanese name for the puffer fish, is one of the strangest fish in the ocean. The puffer fish gets
its name from the way the fish protects itself from enemies. The reason the three men were taken to the
hospital is because the puffer fish is also very poisonous. As a rule, if you eat a whole puffer fish, you will
probably die. The three men had a close call, but they all survived.
The symptoms of fugu poisoning are a strange feeling around the mouth and throat and difficulty
breathing. You can't breathe and your body can't get any air. Your brain still works perfectly, however, so
you know you are dying, but you can't speak or do anything about it.
Despite the danger of fugu poisoning, this strange, ugly, and very poisonous fish is actually a very
expensive, and very popular kind of food in Japan. Customers pay up to $200 per person to eat a fugu
meal. Because of the danger, fugu can only be prepared by chefs with a special license from the
government. These chefs are trained to identify and remove the poisonous parts of the fish. Most people
who die from eating fugu these days are people who have tried their hand at preparing the fish themselves.
Fugu is said to be so delicious that it has even started to be imported into Hong Kong and the United
States. Several tons of fugu are now exported from Japan every year.

VIII. 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.
A team of social psychologists from California has spent six years studying the reactions of people in
cities around the world to different situations. The results show that cities where people have less money
generally have friendlier populations. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, which is often known for its crime, comes
out top, Vientiane ranks second, and the capital of Malawi, Lilongwe, comes third.
But what makes one city friendlier than another? The psychologists from California State University
say it has got more to do with environment than culture or nationality.
They carried out a study into the way locals treated strangers in 23 cities around the world. The team
conducted their research through a series of tests, where they dropped pens or pretended they were blind
and needed help crossing the street.
The study concludes that people are more helpful in cities with a more relaxed way of life such as Rio.
While they were there, researchers received help in 93 percent of cases, and the percentage in Lilongwe
Trang 1/4 - Mã đề: 147

was only a little lower. However, richer cities such as Amsterdam and New York are considered the least
friendly. Inhabitants of Amsterdam helped the researchers in 53 percent of cases and in New York just 44
percent. The psychologists found that, in these cities, people tend to be short of time, so they hurry and
often ignore strangers.
