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 from 45 to 54.
Most people go to a doctor in their own town or suburbs. But people in the Australian outback can’t get
to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call him on a
two-way radio. This special doctor is called the “flying doctor’. He visits sick people by plane for a special
examination.
When someone is sick, the doctor has to fly to the person’s home. His plane lands on a flat piece of
ground near the person’s house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. Flying doctors take
about 8,600 people to hospital each year.
However, most of the time the person isn’t very sick, and the doctor doesn’t have to visit. He can give
advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell the patient to use some medicine from
a special medicine chest. There is one of these chests in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube and
packet in the chest has a number. The doctor often says something like this, “Take two tablets from bottle
number 5 every four hours.”
A man called John Flynn started the Royal Flying Doctor service in 1927. He had only one plane. Today
there are 14 flying-doctor centers, 29 planes, 14 fulltime doctors and several part-time doctors, nurses and
dentists.

A. remote areas B. good highways C. mountainous regions D. strange animals
48. The doctor can treat the sick person by radio from his office when the patient…………….
A. has a special medicine chest B. has got a two-way radio C. is not very sick D. feels very tired

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 front 55 to 64.
Although only a small percentage of the electromagnetic radiation that is emitted by the Sun is ultraviolet
(UV) radiation, the amount that is emitted would be enough to cause severe damage to most forms of life on
Earth were it all to reach the surface of the Earth. Fortunately, all of the Sun’s ultraviolet radiation does not
reach the Earth because of a layer of oxygen, called the ozone layer e n c i r c l i n g the Earth in the stratosphere
at an altitude of about 15 miles above the Earth. The ozone layer absorbs much of the Sun’s ultraviolet radiation
and prevents it from reaching the Earth.
Ozone is a form of oxygen in which each molecule consists of three atoms (O3) instead of the two atoms
(O2) usually found in an oxygen molecule. Ozone forms in the stratosphere in a process that is initiated by
ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. UV radiation from the Sun splits oxygen molecules with two atoms into
f r e e oxygen atoms, and each of these unattached oxygen atoms then joins up with an oxygen molecule to form
ozone. UV radiation is also capable of splitting up ozone molecules; thus, ozone is constantly forming, splitting,
and reforming in the stratosphere. When UV radiation is absorbed during the process of ozone formation and
reformation, i t is unable to reach Earth and cause damage there.
Recently, however, the ozone layer over parts of the Earth has been diminishing. Chief among the c u l p r i t s in
the case of the disappearing ozone, those that are really responsible, are the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). CFCs
meander up from Earth into the stratosphere, where they break down and release chlorine. The released chlorine
reacts with ozone in the stratosphere to form chlorine monoxide (CIO) and oxygen (O2). The chlorine then
becomes free to go through the cycle over and over again. One chlorine atom can, in fact, destroy hundreds of
thousands of ozone molecules in this repetitious cycle, and the effects of this destructive process are now
becoming evident.
Notes:
- stratosphere (danh từ) “ tầng bình lưu.
- meander (động từ) = di ngoằn ngoeo. quanh co.
55. According to the passage, ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. . . . . .
A. is causing severe damage to the Earth's ozone layer
B. is only a fraction of the Sun's electromagnetic radiation
C. creates electromagnetic radiation
D. always reaches the Earth
56. The word “encircling” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to…………….
A. rotating B. attacking C. raising D. surrounding
57. It is stated in the passage that the ozone layer……………
A. enables ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth B. reflects ultraviolet radiation
C. shields the Earth from a lot of ultraviolet radiation D. reaches down to the Earth
58. According to the passage, an ozone molecule…………….
A. consists of three oxygen molecules
B. contains more oxygen atoms than the usual oxygen molecule does
C. consists of two oxygen atoms
D. contains the same number of atoms as the usual oxygen molecule
59. The word “free" in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by ………….
A. liberal B. gratuitous C. unconnected D. emancipated
60. Ultraviolet radiation causes oxygen molecules to……………..
A. rise to the stratosphere B. burn up ozone molecules
C. split up and reform as ozone D. reduce the number of chlorofluorocarbons

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 from 45 to 54.
Most people go to a doctor in their own town or suburbs. But people in the Australian outback can’t get
to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call him on a
two-way radio. This special doctor is called the “flying doctor’. He visits sick people by plane for a special
examination.
When someone is sick, the doctor has to fly to the person’s home. His plane lands on a flat piece of
ground near the person’s house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. Flying doctors take
about 8,600 people to hospital each year.
However, most of the time the person isn’t very sick, and the doctor doesn’t have to visit. He can give
advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell the patient to use some medicine from
a special medicine chest. There is one of these chests in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube and
packet in the chest has a number. The doctor often says something like this, “Take two tablets from bottle
number 5 every four hours.”
A man called John Flynn started the Royal Flying Doctor service in 1927. He had only one plane. Today
there are 14 flying-doctor centers, 29 planes, 14 fulltime doctors and several part-time doctors, nurses and
dentists.

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 front 55 to 64.
Although only a small percentage of the electromagnetic radiation that is emitted by the Sun is ultraviolet
(UV) radiation, the amount that is emitted would be enough to cause severe damage to most forms of life on
Earth were it all to reach the surface of the Earth. Fortunately, all of the Sun’s ultraviolet radiation does not
reach the Earth because of a layer of oxygen, called the ozone layer e n c i r c l i n g the Earth in the stratosphere
at an altitude of about 15 miles above the Earth. The ozone layer absorbs much of the Sun’s ultraviolet radiation
and prevents it from reaching the Earth.
Ozone is a form of oxygen in which each molecule consists of three atoms (O3) instead of the two atoms
(O2) usually found in an oxygen molecule. Ozone forms in the stratosphere in a process that is initiated by
ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. UV radiation from the Sun splits oxygen molecules with two atoms into
f r e e oxygen atoms, and each of these unattached oxygen atoms then joins up with an oxygen molecule to form
ozone. UV radiation is also capable of splitting up ozone molecules; thus, ozone is constantly forming, splitting,
and reforming in the stratosphere. When UV radiation is absorbed during the process of ozone formation and
reformation, i t is unable to reach Earth and cause damage there.
Recently, however, the ozone layer over parts of the Earth has been diminishing. Chief among the c u l p r i t s in
the case of the disappearing ozone, those that are really responsible, are the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). CFCs
meander up from Earth into the stratosphere, where they break down and release chlorine. The released chlorine
reacts with ozone in the stratosphere to form chlorine monoxide (CIO) and oxygen (O2). The chlorine then
becomes free to go through the cycle over and over again. One chlorine atom can, in fact, destroy hundreds of
thousands of ozone molecules in this repetitious cycle, and the effects of this destructive process are now
becoming evident.
Notes:
- stratosphere (danh từ) “ tầng bình lưu.
- meander (động từ) = di ngoằn ngoeo. quanh co.
