China and Sumatra tigers are in danger of becoming extinct. Due to irresponsible
hunting, the Bali, Caspian and Java tigers have already become extinct. This could
soon happen to the other species too.

promise of rewards. Even after the threat of tigers on livestock was over, man
continued to hunt tigers, this time for recreation. Poachers too hunt tigers for their
body parts knowing that the skin of tigers is much sought after. Bones and other

is illegal, it is still being carried out unless it is stopped, the remaining species of

The price of holidays can fluctuate a great deal throughout the year, so you can save a
lot if you are flexible with your travel dates and avoid peak holiday times. It can be
also cheaper if you book well in advance. Before your departure, make sure you get
as much information about your destination as you can. Find out if you require any
special visas or permits to travel there. Think about spending money as well. Will
you be able to access your own money easily enough or will you need to take cash
with you? Think about eating larger lunches and smaller evening meals to help your
money go further, as lunch is generally cheaper. Make sure that you keep sufficient
identification with you at all times. It may also help to email a copy of your passport
details to yourself, in case it is lost or stolen. Label your suitcases clearly so that they
can be easily identified as yours. It can be useful to store a copy of your itinerary in a
prominent place in your suitcase so that the airline will know where to find you if
your luggage gets lost. Be sure to pack any medication or other essential items in
your hand luggage. If your flight is delayed, or your luggage is lost, these can be
difficult to obtain in an airport or foreign country.

Son Doong Cave has become more famous after the American Broadcasting
Company (ABC) aired a live programme featuring its magnificence on ‘Good
Morning America’ in May 2015.
Located in Quang Binh Province, Son Doong Cave was discovered by a local man
named Ho Khanh in 1991, and became known internationally in 2009 thanks to
British cavers, led by Howard Limbert. The cave was formed about 2 to 5 million
years ago by river water eroding away the limestone underneath the mountain. It
contains some of the tallest known stalagmites in the world - up to 70 metres tall. The
cave is more than 200 metres wide, 150 metres high, and nearly 9 kilometres long,
with caverns big enough to fit an entire street inside them. Son Doong Cave is
recognised as the largest cave in the world by BCRA (British Cave Research
Association) and selected as one of the most beautiful on earth by the BBC (British
Broadcasting Corporation).
In August 2013, the first tourist group explored the cave on a guided tour. Permits are
now required to access the cave and are made available on a limited basis. Only 500
permits were issued for the 2015 season, which runs from February to August. After
August, heavy rains cause river levels to rise and make the cave largely inaccessible.

A. It was discovered by a local man named Ho Khanh.
B. A live programme featuring its magnificence was broadcast on ‘Good Morning
America’ by the American Broadcasting Company (ABC).

Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up.

life skills about the world they live in. This will help students become an important

After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich man.
However, he foresaw its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not
to be remembered as the inventor of dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his
death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to people who had made
worldwide contributions to mankind. Originally there were five awards: literature,
physics, chemistry, medicine and peace. Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-
seven years after the first awarded ceremony.
Nobel’s original legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on
this sum is used for the awards which vary from 30.000 dollars to 125.000 dollars.
Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel’s death , the awards (gold
medals, illuminated diploma and money) are present to the winners. Sometimes
politics plays an important roles in the judges’ decision. American have won
numerous science awards, but relatively few literature prizes.
No awards were presented from 1940 to 1942 at the beginning of World War II.
Some people have won two prizes, but this is rare; other have shares their prizes.
Câu 28: When did the first award ceremony take place?
A. 1895 B. 1901 C. 1962 D. 1968
Câu 29: Why was the Nobel’s prize established?
A. to recognize worldwide contributions to humanity B. to resolve political
differences
C. to honor the inventor of dynamite D. to spend money.
Câu 30: In which field have American received the most awards?
A. Literature B. Peace C. Economics D. Science
Câu 31: In how many field are the prizes given?
A. 2 B. 5 C. 6 D. 10
Câu 32: Which of the following statements is NOT true.
A. Awards vary in moneytory value
B. Ceremonies are held on December 10 to commemorate Nobel’s invention
C. Politics can play an important role in selecting the winners
D. A few individuals have won two awards.

If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius, they will cause
a disaster. According to several scientists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which ambitious
parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what his parents expect, and will
fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.
However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but
are ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the
parents are very supportive of their child.
Michael is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him
to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50
kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s mother knows very little about music,
but his father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter
music competitions if he is unwilling.
Winston, Michael’s friend, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are successful
musicians, and they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as
successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very
unhappy when he does not win. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents
and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.

A. push their child into trying too much. C. make their child become a musician
B. help their child to become a genius D. neglect their child’s education.

Dear Angela,
I was horrified when I found out that my 12-year-old daughter had been arrested for
stealing some make-up from a high street chemist’s. This happened because she had been

which is what attracted the attention of the shop assistant. The police were called and she
was given a tell-off at the police station.
Since this terrifying experience, she has been too afraid to go out on her own and cries all the
time. My husband doesn’t seem to care that much. He says that she shouldn’t have stolen in

Family life is changing. Two-parent households are on the decline in the United States as
divorce, remarriage and cohabitation are on the rise. And families are smaller now, both due
to the growth of single-parent households and the drop in fertility. Not only are Americans
having fewer children, but the circumstances surrounding parenthood have changed. While in
the early 1960s babies typically arrived within a marriage, today fully four-in-ten births
occur to women who are single or living with a non-marital partner. At the same time that
family structures have transformed, so has the role of mothers in the workplace – and in the
home. As more moms have entered the labor force, more have become breadwinners – in
many cases, primary breadwinners – in their families.
As a result of these changes, there is no longer one dominant family form in the US. Parents
today are raising their children agianst a backdrop of increasingly diverse and, for many,
constantly evolving family forms.
28. Which of the following trends is true in the United States?
A. The rate of divorce is increasing B. More women become
housewives
C. Nuclear family becomes the dominant family form D. family structures remain
unchanged
29. Why has the size of families in the US reduced?
A. There are more families with one parent and fewer babies born each year.
B. There are more extended families and less medical care
C. There are more people living abroad
D. More teenagers decide to live independently of their parents.
30. Who are breadwinners in the US?
A. Only men. B. Only women
C. Either men or women . D. Either women or children
31. Family forms in the US are……………….?
A. Similar. B. Changing
C. Chaotic D. remaining the same.
32. Which of the followinf statements is not true?
A. The number of families with both parents is reducing
B. More women can earn money
C. More women have had their own jobs
D. In 1961, most babies were born by single mothers

only see the lighted side. Mercury appears to us like a yellowish orange star. The nearest
planet to the sun, it is always seen near the sun, either just before sunrise or soon after sunset.
People sometimes call mercury the morning star or evening star. Mercury is half the size of
the earth. Because it is much lighter, it has much less gravity. If you can visit Mercury in a
spaceship, you will find it a strange world. Its low gravity makes you feel very light. If your
weight on earth is 100 pounds, your weight on Mercury is only 27 pounds. Looking at the
sun from Mercury, you can see that it's much more brilliant than it is seen from the earth.
And the yellow centre of the sun appears three times bigger from Mercury. On its lighted
side, Mercury's temperature is about 300 degrees centigrate. But the dark side is extremely
cold, but 150 degrees below zero so mercury is probably the coldest as well as the hottest of
the planets.

A. the sun's fastest planet B. the coldest planet

A. just before the sunset B. just before sunrise
C. after the sunset D. both A and C are correct
31. Why do we weigh much on the earth than on Mercury? - Because …………..
A. Mercury is nearer to the sun. B. Mercury has got less gravity than the earth.
C. Mercury is much hotter. D. none are correct.
32. Why does the sun look bigger when it is seen from Mercury?

Thousands of years before Columbus came to the New World, the American Indians entered
North America by crossing a narrow strip of land that once connected Alaska and Siberia.
The migrants entered a new world in which there were no people at all. But there were many
animals to hunt, and there were forests where nuts, roots, and berries could be gathered.
When the Europeans came to the New World, the Indians, at first, taught the settlers how to
plant corn, bake fish, make canoes, and smoke tobacco. In return, the white introduced
horses, guns, gunpowder, and alcohol. But at last, there were struggles for land, and the
struggles could have only one result – war. When the wars were over, all Indians were
moved to large tracts of land called reservations. Now, some of them, embittered by
mistreatment, are determined to preserve their tribal life; some wish to modernize the
reservations. These alternatives, with many variations, are what most Indians have chosen – a
future in modern technology and education, or the revival of ancient tradition and treaties.

Changes in care giving roles
With the burden of financial support reduced, and with a changing concept of a father’s
role, modern day fathers tend to be more involved in children’s care giving. They are now
spending more time and energy on their children. Psychological research across families from
all ethnic backgrounds suggests that the influence of a father’s love and attention is as great
as that of a mother’s. Fatherly love helps children develop a sense of their place in the world,
which helps their social and emotional development. Moreover, children who receive more
love from their fathers are less likely to have behavioural problems.
This trend is still increasing and its effects will become clearer and clearer in the future,
especially in traditionally male-dominated societies.
Question 28. Which of these is NOT the traditional role of a father?
A. financial supporter B. teacher of moral values C. religious educator
D. caregiver
Question 29. Social welfare programmes ___________.
A. support families financially B. help mothers with domestic abuse
C. educate fathers about their responsibilities D. train caregivers
Question 30. The influence of a mother’s love is ___________ that of the father’s.
A. more important than B. less important than
C. much greater than D. as important as

A. never have any B. have more C. have fewer D.
have a lot of
Question 32.The changing roles of the father will be seen more clearly in ___________.
A. ethnic groups B. developed countries
C. economically independent societies D. traditionally male-dominated societies

Columbus crossed the Atlantic Ocean three times. His first voyage brought him fame
and popularity - he discovered a new continent. But he had enemies who wanted to get rid of
him. On his second voyage the Government of the country that Columbus himself discovered
threw him into prison.
He was sent back to Spain as a prisoner. But Columbus succeeded in proving that the
lies his enemies spread about him were untrue, and the Spanish Government gave him four
ships to start on a new voyage. But this third voyage was unfortunate from the beginning. The
ships were met by terrible storms and the time he reached the shores of Haiti, Columbus lost
three of them. The remaining ship was about to go down when Columbus reached the island.

Columbus discovered, and he proved that it was not the coast of India, as Columbus thought,
but unknown continent.

to name it America, in honour of Amerigo, whose voyage showed it was not India. America
was discovered by Columbus in 1492. It was named America in 1506, the year in which
Columbus died.

The price of holidays can fluctuate a great deal throughout the year, so you can save a
lot if you are flexible with your travel dates and avoid peak holiday times. It can be also
cheaper if you book well in advance. Before your departure, make sure you get as much
information about your destination as you can. Find out if you require any special visas or
permits to travel there. Think about spending money as well. Will you be able to access your
own money easily enough or will you need to take cash with you? Think about eating larger
lunches and smaller evening meals to help your money go further, as lunch is generally
cheaper. Make sure that you keep sufficient identification with you at all times. It may also
help to email a copy of your passport details to yourself, in case it is lost or stolen. Label your
suitcases clearly so that they can be easily identified as yours. It can be useful to store a copy
of your itinerary in a prominent place in your suitcase so that the airline will know where to
find you if your luggage gets lost. Be sure to pack any medication or other essential items in
your hand luggage. If your flight is delayed, or your luggage is lost, these can be difficult to
obtain in an airport or foreign country.

IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
In the past, getting recipes and cooking tips was a complicated process. A person had
to go to the store and buy a cook book, or get recipes from friends. Fortunately, the internet
has changed all that. Now, if you want to find a recipe for lasagna or cob salad, you just
search online. It couldn’t be simpler.
Cooking blogs are a great source of information because they are free and there are so
many of them. They are also nice because they give all different kinds of ideas. The problems
with blogs is that because we don’t know who is writing them, we need to use with caution.
When you are looking at a new blog, you don’t know if the writer knows what he or she is
talking about.
We’d like to introduce two popular cooking blogs. The first is called smitten kitchen.
This website is run by a family living in New York City. It focuses on food that doesn’t
require many ingredients. If you want to make food that is simple but wonderful, then this is
the site for you. It offers hundreds and hundreds of recipes, divided into categories. You will
be amazed at how many there are.
Wednesday Chef is another great cooking blog. It is run by a writer who lives in Berlin.
This blog also offers many recipes, along with recommendations for great restaurants in
Berlin, and advice for people who want to start their own blogs. Wednesday Chef has great
pictures of its food, as well as interesting pictures of Berlin. The blog got its name because in
the past, newspapers published their food articles on Wednesdays.
There are a lot of cooking blogs on the internet, and most of them are pretty good. Go
online and check some of them out. You might be surprised at how much they can help you
improve your cooking.

TAKING A WORKING HOLIDAY
One of the most difficult things young people face when they want to travel is the lack
of funds. During the summer holiday and possibly at weekeds, they are able to take on part-
time jobs, but the money make is just a drop in the bucket of what they need to travel far
away. For example, travelling to Australia from Vietnam can be quite expensive just foe an
airline ticket, and to a lot of students want to travel, it can seem out of reach.
For students want to travel Australia and New Zealand in particular, however, they are
in luck. Although many countries offer working holidays, these two countries are well-known

incidentals. Once he is there, a job awaists where he can earn some money.
Many of the jobs require little or no experience such as picking fruit or working in a
busy pub out in the countryside. Some of the jobs require more experience that most people
or unlikely to have, such as being certified welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That
shouldn’t discourage you, though, there is always something to be found if you search hard
enough.
There are many websites that advertise working holidays in Autralia and New Zealand.
If you have the courage and are looking for a way to make a little money and see the world, it
might be just the ticket you were looking for.
28. Where can people find working holidays advertised?
A. On the Internet B. In magazines
C. On the radio D. In travel guidebooks
29. What can seem out of reach for young people?
A. Being able to get time off from school.
B. Being able to earn money.
C. Being able to find a part-time job.
D. Being able to travel.
30. Why would a student NOT want to take a working holiday?
A. To see how fearful he is B. To earn money
C. To see the world C. To visit a new place
31. Which students are in luck according to the passage?
A. The one who have airline tickets
B. The ones who are on holiday
C. The ones who want to go to Australia and New Zealand
D. The ones who want have a part-time job
32. According to the passage, which statement is true?

IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
Have you ever noticed advertisements which says “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks,
or your money back. From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send…”
and so on? Of course, it never happens quite like that. One’s mother language is easier to
learn, but it also requires a lot of practice to be fluent. And think how much practice that gets!
Before the Second World War, people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the
literature of the country.
Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year millions of
people start learning one. How they do it? Some people try it at home, with books and
records of tapes; some use radio or television programmes; some use computers and network;
others go to evening classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, it will take a
long time, like learning a foreign language at school. A few people try to learn a the language
fast by studying for 6 or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the
country where it is spoken. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not
necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists
and doctors chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language.
Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books
will help, but they cannot do the students’ work for him.
28. According to some advertisements, you______.
A. have to pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks.
B. needn’t pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks.
C. must pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks.
D. will be paid much money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks.
29. Now most people try to learn a foreign language in order to________.
A. read the literature of the country B. read books and reports
C. do their work better D. go to foreign countries
30. The best way to learn a foreign language is________.
A. to go to the country where the language is spoken
B. to use machines and good books
C. to go to evening classes
D. to do as the advertisments tell you to
31. Learning a foreign language is a hard job______.
A. only for scientists and doctors B. only for the students at schools
C. for those people at home D. for most people
32. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?
A. it is very difficult to learn a foreign language, including the native language.
B. few people can afford to learn a foreign language in the country where it is spoken.
C. to learn one’s mother tounge also need a lot of practice.
D. machines and good books are useless for us to learn a foreign language.

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

Human have a long history of eating insects, and it turns out that they can be a very nutritious
part of a person’s regular diet. Insects have a lot of protein, and they are often easier to catch
than prey animals. Therefore, it was no wonder that when our ancuent ancestors saw some
tasty worms or grubs wiggling on the ground, they made a quick snack of them.
In Thailand, insects are a regular part of the street food that can be found. The different
insects that people snack on are crickets, grasshoppers, giant water bugs and assorted worms.
They are often deep-fried and salted, so they have a crunchy texture that makes them a
perfect snack food. If you can get past the fact that you are eating a cricket, it will crunch in
your mouth just like a corn chip!
For a lot of people, however, it is difficult to get over the fear of eating insects. People tend to
see insects as invaders, especially when they are crawling on the food that we are about to
ear. Therefore, being able to eat insects without feeling disgusted is cultural. Some people
cannot eat French cheese or stinky tofu because they weren’t brought up doing so. To many
of us, insects fall right into that category, making it difficult to even try them.
If given the chance, though, be courageous. Insects can be nutritious and tasty, so long as you
can get over the ‘yuck’ factor.
28. Which is the reason given for gathering and eating insects?
A. they are very easy to find close to the home.
B. They are more nutritious than most vegetables.
C. They come in all shapes and sizes.
D. They are easier to catch than other prey animals.
29. Why are deep-fried insects considered a perfect snack food?
A. Because they taste exactly like corn chips.
B. Because they don’t like fill you up.
C. Because they have a crunchy texture.
D. Because they are not expensive.
30. Which insects are not mentioned in the passage?
A. water bugs B. grasshoppers
C. beetles D. crickets
31. Where are insects a regular part of the street food?
A. France B. Thailand C. Britain D. All of the above.

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

My first piece of advice to people who want to start getting fit is don’t buy an exercise bike.
Typically, people who buy them use them for a week or so and then forget about them. There
are effective if they are used regularly but you need to be determined. Most people will find
it much easier to go for a gentle jog around the park.
As well as being easy to do, jogging is also relatively cheap compared to most other sports.
You don’t need to buy expensive clothes if you’re just going running around the park or on
the beach. The main thing is that they’re comfortable, and that they keep you warm in the
winter and cool in the summer. There is one piece of equipment, however, that you will have
to spend time and money on, and that’s your running shoes. Remember that you are not
looking for a fashion item, but for something that will support your feet and protect you from
injury. They can be expensive, but if they are good quality they will last you a long time. It’s
always best to get expert advice, and the best place for that is a sports shop.
As for the actual jogging, the secret is to start gently, and not to do much at the beginning –
especially if you haven’t had any exercise for a long time. Try a mixture of walking and
running for ten minutes about three times a week at first. Once you are happy doing that you
can then start to increase the amount you do gradually. After a few months you should hope
to be able to run at resonable speed for twenty minutes three or four times a week. It’s
important that you feel comfortable with whatever you do. If you do, you’ll start to enjoy it
and will probably keep doing it. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you’ll probably stop after
a short time and return to your bad habits. In any case, training too hard is not very effective.
Research has shown that somebody who exercise for twice as long as or twice as hard as
another person doesn’t automatically become twice as fit.

instruments until they get the sound that they want. This means that a CD or cassette wil
always sound very different from a live concert.
Music engineers have developed a new computer programme that will change the future
of music. A computer can analyse a singer’s voice. Then if you give the computer the lyrics
and music of a song, the computer can ‘sing’ it in that voice. This means that a singer only
needs to record one song and the computer can then sing other songs in the singer’s own
voice. Singers can sing new songs many years after they have died.
Most of us listen to music for pleasure, but for the record companies, music is a product,
the same as soap powder. When a record company finds a new group (or “band”), they first
try to develop the band’s ‘profile’. They will try to create an ‘image’ for the band that they
think will attract young people. Instead of allowing the band’s full artistic freedom, they will
often tell the band what they should wear, what they should say and how they should sing
and play.
In recent year, many rock groups have started their own record companies because they
say that the big companies are too commercial.

IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
It is a common saying that we do not fully value a thing until we lose it. We often value
the love and worth of a friend when he has been taken from us by death more than when he
was with us in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that we understand the
greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone forever; and it is the sick and the
ailing who realize the value of good health. When we are young and strong, we cannot
imagine what it is like to be weak and ill. We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for
granted. The organs of our body work so smoothly that we scaredly know we have lungs and
liver, heart and stomach. But when any of these gets upset and gives us pain and sickness, we
learn by bitter experience what an unspeakable blessing it is to be well.
Loss of health makes us miserable, and a burden to ourselves and our friends. It cripples
our efforts so that we cannot accomplish many of the good and great things we might have
done. It spoils our life. What must we do to keep our health.
We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain, wholesome
simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands, and strong drink tens of thousands. We must,
when young, get plenty of sleep, which is “nature’s sweet restorer”, and not try to burn the
candle at both ends. We must live as much as possible in the open air and keep our rooms
well ventilated. We must get sufficient and regular physical exercise, and keep our bodies
clean. And we must avoid bad habits and secret sins as we avoid the devil, and keep our
thoughts clean and our bodies pur. Our ideal must be the sound mind in the sound body.
28. According to the passage, we often appreciate our friends ______________.
A. only when they are with us.
B. only when they are good to us.

Vietnam is a densely-populated, developing country that in the last 30 years has had to

poverty. Since 2001, Vietnamese authorities have reaffirmed their commitment to economic
liberalization and international integration. They have moved to implement the structural
reforms needed to modernize the economy and to produce more competitive, export-driven
industries. .

2002 and again in 2003.
Vietnam joined the WTO (World Trade Organization) in January 2007, following over a
decade long negotiation process. This should provide ail important boost to the economy and
should help to ensure the continuation of liberalizing reforms.
Vietnam is working to create jobs to meet the challenge of a labor force that is growing
by more than one million people every year. Vietnamese authorities have tightened monetary
and fiscal policies to stem high inflation. Hanoi is targeting an economic growth rate of 7. 5-
8% during the next five years.

Education system of Vietnam in the past
Because of 1,000 years under the control of China, there were no records which indicated
a formal education system in Vietnam. In 939, Emperor Ngo Quyen expelled the Chinese
invaders and declared Vietnamese independence. But the first two dynasties, Ngo and Dinh,
did not last so long, and were busy with the national defense, so the education was just in
pagodas. Ly Cong Uan, the founder king of the Lydynasty had been educated in a pagoda.
To the Ly dynasty, the fundamental educational system was officially improved. King Ly
Thanh Tong established the Temple of Literature at the ancient Capital of Thang Long to
encourage people to appreciate the education. In 1075, the first exam was done by the order
of King Ly Nhan Tong to select scholars for office and the later year, 1076, the Imperial
Academy, the first university in Vietnam’s history, was set up for the education of sons of
royalty and other high – ranking officials.
There were also many private classes taught by prominent scholars such as Chu Van An,
Le Quy Don,
Nguyen Binh Khiem, Phung Khac Khoan, Vo Truong Toan... The students would only study
literature and ancient history of China, of Viet Nam for entirety of their schooling. Later on,
the Public Administration curriculum was finally added to the program. When the Ho Royal
family ruled the country, students were taught simple mathematics.
From 1918 to 1945, Vietnam’s education programme has adopted the western
educational system with three levels: elementary, high school, and college. At all levels, from
1945 the Vietnamese National language is officially used. Students have the opportunity to
learn literature, history, philosophy, law, science, math, medicine and as well as other
languages.

In the Mekong Delta, Long Dinh village of Tien Giang province is famous for its
traditional craft of weaving flowered mats. The mat’s high quality makes them popular
domestically, and they are also exported to markets worldwide including Korea, Japan and
America.
In spite of its well-established reputation for this traditional craft, mat weaving only
started here some 50 years ago. It was first introduced by immigrants from Kim Son, a
famous mat weaving village in the northern province of Ninh Binh. However, the technique
of weaving village sedge mats in Long Dinh, as compared with other places in the South, is
somewhat different. Long Dinh branded mats are thicker and have more attractive colours
and patterns.
Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice. Long Dinh mat production mainly occurs
during the dry season, from January to April. Weavers have to work their hardest in May and
June, otherwise, when the rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off finishing their
Products till the next dry season. No matter how much work it requires, Long Dinh mat
producers stick with this occupation, as it brings a higher income than growing rice.
This trade provides employment for thousands of local labourers. At present, nearly 1,000
households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats. To better meet market demands,
Long Dinh mat weavers have created more Products in addition to the traditional sedge mats.
Particularly, they are producing a new type of mat made from the dried stalks of water
hyacinth, a common material in the Mekong Delta.
Thanks to the planning and further investment, the mat weaving occupation has indeed
brought in more income for local residents. Their living standards have improved
considerably, resulting in better conditions for the whole village.
28. All of the following are true about the craft in Long Dinh EXCEPT that
______________.
A. it has the origin from Kim Son, Ninh Binh
B. it has had the reputation for more than 50 years
C. the techniques are a little bit different from those in other regions
D. the mats have more attractive colours and designs
29. We can infer from the sentence “Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice” that
______________.
A. both depend on weather conditions
B. both occur on the same land
C. both bring similar incom
D. both occur at the same time
30. Despite difficulties, people in Long Dinh try to follow the craft because
______________.
A. they can have jobs in the rainy months
B. they can go to Korea, Japan and America
C. they can make the techniques of weaving different
D. they can earn more money than growing rice
31. In order to meet market demands, artisans in Long Dinh ______________.
A. produce new Producs from rare material
B. for thousands of local labourers
C. try to produce various types of Products
D. stop producing the traditional sedge mats
32. We can infer from the passage that ______________.
A. the new technique makes labourers work in the dry season
B. Long Dinh mat production is only well-known in foreign markets
C. the craft contributes much to the village economy
D. most of the households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats

Today, in many parts of the world, it is customary for people to shake hands upon meeting
as gesture of good will. Originally, however, the practice of shaking hands had a more
practical purpose.
Shaking hands originated in medieval times. In those days, when a man came on a
stranger, he would often automatically reach for his sword with his right hand, in case he had
to use the weapon to defend himself. Sometimes, both parties found themselves circling
around each other, weapons in hand, until it was mutually agreed that the weapons could be
laid aside. Then, the two parties extended their right hands to show they had no weapons, and
clasped them. This was the beginning of the handshake.
The custom of shaking hands is not a universal one. In the Orient, people have, for
centuries, clasped their own hands in front of them upon meeting to show that they held no
weapons. In France, a custom developed in which people who met would kiss each other on
both cheeks. The natives of some South-sea islands greet by rubbing noses.

A. to show a good relationship with each other
B. to show that there were no weapons in hands.
C. to show that both parties were ready for a fight.
D. a gesture of good will

A. shaking hands has been practiced all over the world
B. the oriental people kiss each other’s hand.
C. people laid aside their weapons.
D. there have been various ways depending on different cultures
30.According to the passage,the practice of shaking hands ________________.
A. was used to extend greetings
B. used to be popular, but now it is out of date.
C. is replaced by other customs in some countries.
D. is considered not to be very polite.

A. waited for B. visited C. attacked D. happened to meet

In the early 17th century, most of the southern region of Vietnam was nearly uninhabited
and in the position of Ho Chi Minh City, there was a small village formed with a few
residents. However, thanks to its advantage in location, the town grew both economically and
politically. By the 19th century, this had become a cultural hub of the South as well as an
important trading center of the country.
You might not know that there was a time Saigon was referred to as the Pearl of the Far East.
Sadly, having been through various occurrences and two disastrous wars has stunted the
city’s development. Only after the political instabilities had settled, Saigon recovered
miraculously and maintained its leading position in terms of both the economics and culture.

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

You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you
understand the assignment. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to, and
don't be afraid to ask questions about what is expected. It is much easier to take a minute to
ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night! If you want,
you can also ask how long the particular homework assignment should take to complete so
you can plan your time.
Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many
schools have libraries that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get
homework done. The more work you can get done in school, the less you will have to do that
night.
Third, pace yourself. If you don't finish your homework during school, think about
how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then plan your time. Most
middle students should have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy
homework day, you will need to devote more time to homework.
No one is expected to understand everything, and maybe you need some help. The first
place to turn for help is your teacher. But what if you don't feel comfortable with your
teacher? If you are in a big enough school, there may be other teachers who teach the same
subject. Speak to other teachers directly and you may be in luck. Sometimes it just helps to
have someone explain something in a different way. Moreover, you might also be able to get
some help from another student. If there is someone you like who is a good student, think
about asking that person if you can study together.
28. The most important thing that you should do when you get your assignment may
be__________.
A. to know when you hand it in B. to understand it and its requirements
C. to know how long it takes to complete it D. to remember it in order to plan the time
29. If you have any free time left at school, you should__________.
A. use it to do your homework in the library B. spend time with your friends
C. use it to understand the assignment D. use it to make your day planner
30. When students need some help, they should__________.
A. never ask other teachers for help
B. always turn to their own teachers for help
C. ask any good students at the subject in your school
D. go to their teachers or other teachers teaching the same subject

31. The main idea of the first three paragraphs is__________.


A. to get help when you need it
B. to do homework immediately
C. to create a homework plan
D. to ask your teachers for more explanation
32. According to the passage, all of the following are correct EXCEPT that__________.
A. it takes a student more than three hours a night if there is much homework
B. it is good to have the explanation in a different way
C. you only do your homework at home between 1 and 3 hours a night
D. it is very useful to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class

IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions.
Did you know that on average we forget about 80% of the medical information a
doctor might give us? This fascinating information came to light as a result of a study carried
out by Utrecht University. What is even more interesting is that almost half of what we think
we remember is wrong.
Why do you think this is? Well, it’s not as complicated as you may think. You see,
going to the doctor fills most people with anxiety and when we are really nervous and
stressed we are more likely to focus on the diagnosis rather than the treatment. Therefore, we
know what is wrong with as but have no idea what to do about it.
Here are some good tips to keep in mind when seeing a doctor. Always write down
any important information. What would be even better is, if your doctor agreed, to record
your consultation. This way, you can replay the advice at home, where you are more likely to
absorb it. If you believe the situation is serious or you’re really worried, seek the help of a
family member. Just ask them to accompany you to listen in. This way you can be absolutely
sure about what the doctor has told you and avoid falling into the same trap that most people
do.

One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of
clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. However, acid rain,
industrial pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes,
reservoirs and even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is
one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including
1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. Yet, they are being destroyed
by the massive volumes of industrial effluent which pour into the lake every day. Even
though laws have been made, the government do not have the power to enforce them. Most
industries simply ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world's
water surface, but it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost 16
countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles off shore.
Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean
water in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution
and sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect this precious
source. We should do something now.

B. It is one of the largest lakes that contains a variety of animals and plants.
C. It is polluted by massive volumes of industrial wastes discharged into it.
D. It is the only lake in Russia whose source of water is not drinkable.
30: What does the word "them" in the passage refer to?
A. laws B. the government C. animals D. plants
31: How many countries throw industrial wastes into the Mediterranean Sea regularly
A. nearly 16 B. exactly 16 C. over 16 D. more than 16
32: What is the message to the readers?
A. We should take action to protect our water sources.

Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the
dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged

England and had not extended even as far as two centuries, English began to spread around the

Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became established and grew in various parts of the

international business, banking and diplomacy.

English. Two - thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main
language of technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers -

Tropical cyclones are called typhoons in Asia and hurricanes in North an America. These

have wind speeds of 60 kph or more. In the United the Tropical Prediction Center in Miami,
Florida keeps an eye out for hurricanes.
When meteorologists detect a hurricane, they give it a name. They can use ei male or
female name. Why should tropical cyclones have names? The name makes it easy for people to
keep up with information about a hurricane and its possible dangers.
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an international weather group. decides what
names will be used. The WMO makes lists of names using the English alphabet. Each name on
the list starts with a different letter. The first hurricane of the year gets the first name on that
year's list. The second hurricane gets the next name. For examples if the first hurricane is named
Abel, the second might be named Betty. The name lists do include names beginning with the
letters Q, U, X. Y and Z. There aren't many names that begin with these letters.
Asian countries use a different list, which is made up by the WMO's Typhoon Committee.
This list has a few personal names, but most of the names are of flowers, animals, trees, and
other similar things.

Television and Kids
Television is very popular and even has some benefits for kids. It helps very young
children learn the letters of the alphabet, and helps other kids learn about science, cultures, and
world events.
However, researchers show that too much TV is bad for children. For one thing, there is a
link between watching more than four hours of TV a day and being overweight. For another
thing, many TV shows are violent and upsetting. Watching these shows may cause kids to be
more fearful. And of course, more time in front of the TV means less time to study. Too much TV
may also be the cause of lower grades. Experts do not agree on the solution to these problems.
Some say that kids should watch only educational programs; others say kids should watch no TV
at all. And others suggest teaching them to watch TV as occasional entertainment, not as an
everyday hobby.

A. cause weight problems in children B. cause children to be more famous

A. programs B. experts C. kids D. problems
