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 26 to 30. (1,25 points)
Ca Trù is an ancient genre of singing in the North of Vietnam. It dates back to the 11th century.
In the 13th century, during the Ly Dynasty, it was officially recognized as a form of entertainment for
the royal court. In the 15th century, Ca Trù was popularized and spread throughout northern Vietnam.
But it was not until the 20th century that it became well-known to the world thanks to the voice of
the famous singer Quách Thị Hồ. Ca Trù is a sophisticated art of sung poetry. Its lyrics are poems.
The special thing about it is that it can fit any types of poems, no matter long or short. This feature
makes Ca Trù a unique performance art. And unlike modern music, Ca Trù has its own system of
music notation and space. A typical performance of Ca Trù often consists of at least three
performers. The singer is always a woman. She both sings and plays the clappers (known as phách),
an instrument made of wood or bamboo that is beaten with two wooden sticks. A male musician
accompanies the singer on a three-stringed lute (known as đàn đáy) and a drummer who makes the
strong sounds of a praise drum. The singer needs to learn to play phách before learning the vocal
method, and it takes from three to ten years to master the vocal and the phách techniques. In 2009,
Ca Trù was honorably declared as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the UNESCO.
Today, there are about 14 clubs of Ca Trù, spreading from the north to the south of Vietnam.
However, because of modern forms of entertainment, Ca Trù is not favoured by the young
generations and is gradually losing its fans.
Question 26. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to perform Ca Trù
B. How Ca Trù became an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity
C. The history of Vietnamese traditional music
D. Ca Trù – a Vietnamese traditional type of music
Question 27. When did Ca Trù first appear?
A. the 11th century B. the 13th century
C. the 15th century D. During the Ly Dynasty
Question 28. What makes Ca Trù unique?
A. It is performed for the royal people.
B. It has different system of music notation and space.
C. It’s a combination of poems and singing.
D. It is listed as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
Question 29. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Singer Quách Thi Hồ made Ca Trù popular nationwide.
B. There are always three performers in Ca Trù performances.
C. The singer has to learn to sing first, then to play phách.
D. Ca Trù is losing its popularity.
Question 30. The word ‘accompanies’ is closest in meaning to ______.
A. go to a place with someone else

My name is Giang, and I am 16 years old. I live with my family. There are four members in my
family: my parents, my younger brother and I. In spite of being busy, we have our own responsibilities
and roles in doing housework. Our household chores are equally divided among the family members. My
dad takes charge of doing the heavy lifting and repairing things such as electrical goods or plumbing. He
sometimes does the ironing. My mom spends most of her time looking after the children, managing and
monitoring the household chores. She does some tasks like cleaning the house, doing the cooking and
shopping for grocery. Both of my parents share roles in homemaking and breadwinning, which not only
reduces the financial burden but also improves their relationships. I and my younger brother help my
parents do the housework after school. I water the plants, sweep the house and take out the rubbish every
day. My younger brother often cleans the bathroom twice a week. In addition, before meals, we help my
mom lay the table, and after the meals we take turns washing the dishes. In short, sharing the housework
creates family ties and makes the family happier.
Statements T F
Question 26. Household chores are equally split among Giang's family member.

Question 29. Giang's dad is the breadwinner while her mom is the homemaker in the family.

correct answer to each of the questions from 26 to 30. (1,25 point)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s was the only-surviving son of Leopold and Maria Pertl Mozart.
Leopold was a successful composer, violinist, and assistant concert master at the Salzburg court.
Wolfgang’s mother, Anna Maria Pertl, was born to a middle class family of local community leaders.
His only sister was Maria Anna (nicknamed “Nannerl”). With their father’s encouragement and
guidance, they both were introduced to music at an early age. Leopold started Nannerl on keyboard when
she was seven, as three- year old Wolfgang looked on. Mimicking her playing, Wolfgang quickly began
to show a strong understanding of chords, tonality, and tempo. Soon, he too was being tutored by his
father.
Leopold was a devoted and task-oriented teacher to both his children. He made the lessons fun,
but also insisted on a strong work ethic and perfection. Fortunately, both children excelled well in these
areas. Recognizing their special talents, Leopold devoted much of his time to their education in music
as well as other subjects. Wolfgang soon showed signs of excelling beyond his father’s teachings with
an early composition at age five and demonstrating outstanding ability on harpsichord and the violin. He
would soon go on to play the piano, organ and viola.
