Life in the big city is face-paced, fun and exciting. There are countless job opportunities and activities

job opportunities; there are also more people competing for a single job. This can make your job search
frustrating. Oddly enough, you will see hundreds, if not thousands of jobs available each week, but you
still might remain unemployed, especially when the economy is down. In addition, the cost of living is

of the city, not to mention other costs to fulfill your basic demands. Diversity is a good thing, but the

crowds and always be people around. Moreover, traffic can be a nightmare in the big city. It can get so
bad that it can turn you into an evil person. If you hate driving in traffic, then the big city life is not for
you. Heavy traffic also contributes to the pollution, which is one of the biggest disadvantages of living
in the city. Obviously, our health is affected most with certain diseases relating to respiratory system
and other body parts. A lot of premature deaths are supposed to be the result of long-term exposure to
small particles. Most importantly, there is always more crime in a big city, causing you second case

Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions that follow.
All over the world, all different cultures created interesting processed meat products, and one of the
most popular is undoubtedly sausage.
To begin with, sausage making may be considered disgusting as it deals with using various animal
parts. Since meat is ground up, certain cuts and parts of an animal that wouldn’t be served in their
original forms can be used. Literally, this means animal parts such as noses, ears, and other less
appetizing areas of an animal’s body. Very often, the ground up meat and flesh is mixed with a certain
percentage of fat, along with spices and other fillers. After being mixed well, this meat mixture is then
stuffed into the cleaned intestines of the animal, which are then sealed at both ends. The result is
sausage.
The meats used in sausages come from a variety of animals, although beef and pork are by far the
favourites. In some cultures, sausage made from the meat of horses is considered a delicacy. When
sausages are cooked, the cooking process sometimes adds to the flavour. While boiling is probably the
simplest method, smoking sausages will add a lot of smoky flavour.
Next time you bite into a sausage, it is probably best not to think too much about how it became the
tasty thing you are eating. After all, you don’t want to ruin a good snack.
28.Which is the best title of the passage?
A. Culture B. A world of Sausage
C. Snack D. Meat products

A. Certain cuts and parts of animals B. Spices and fillers

A. Chicken B. Horse meat C. Cuts of lamb D. Beef and pork

Read the following passage and mark letterA, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions that follow.
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 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 pattems.
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.

Package holidays, covering a two weeks" stay in an attractive location are increasingly popular,
because they offer an inclusive price with few extras. Once you get to the airport, it is up to the tour
operator to see that you get safely to your destination. Excursions, local entertainment, swimming,
sunbathing, skiing - you name it - it"s all laid on for you. There is, in fact, no reason for you to bother
anything yourselves. You make friends and have a good time, but there is very little chance that you
will really get to know the local people. This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend
almost your entire time travelling. Of course, there are carefully scheduled stops for you to visit
historic buildings and monuments, but you will probably be allowed only a brief stay overnight in
some famous city, with a polite reminder to be up and breakfasted early in time for the coach next
morning. You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient, but time is always at your elbow. There
is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to spend your holiday with a group of people you have
never met before, may not like and have no reasonable excuse for getting away from. As against this, it
can be argued that for many people, particularly the lonely or elderly, the feeling of belonging to a
group, although for a short period on holiday, is an added bonus. They can sit safely back in their seat
and watch the world go by.

Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions that follow.
Fathers used to act as the ‘breadwinner' of their family, and as the teacher of moral and religious
values. Today, however, those roles are gradually changing.
More and more women are going out to work and earn money. This increases the budget of the
family. Apart from that, there are various social welfare programmes which financially assist mothers
in supporting their children. Both these changes have greatly impacted the role of fathers because they
make paternal financial support less essential for many families.
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 caregiving. 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 behavioral problems.
This trend is still increasing and its effects will become clearer and clearer in the future, especially in
traditionally male-dominated societies.

regularly. You should make use of every opportunity to speak English with friends in class or at
English speaking clubs or ourselves in front of the mirror. Learning by heart all the words does not
help much if you do not read a lot because you will easily forget what you have learnt. Reading books,

should not be so shy because making mistakes is unavoidable in learning foreign languages. Practicing
speaking a lot is a good way to correct your mistakes.

questions that follow.
Learning a new language is always an excellent idea. It provides you incredible benefits that come with
the backing of science! One of the most useful languages to learn is English.
Learning a second language is one of the best ways to keep your brain active and challenged. Studies
have shown that the brain undergoes changes in electrical activity and even structure and size while
learning a foreign language that do not occur when learning any other type of task or skill. Learning
another language offers important cognitive benefits at any age, helping to keep the mind active and
even reducing the risk of mental disease and slowing mental decline later in life.
When learning English as a second language, you approach new ways to think and express yourself
through written and spoken words. Learning multiple languages can help you communicate more
clearly in any language as you learn more about how language itself works and how to use it to
promote ideas and reach out to others in a variety of social and work situations.
The world may not have a global language, but English is the default option for countless forms of
communication across the globe. That’s why one of the benefits of learning English is that it
significantly boosts your hiring potential. In addition, it can offer you educational opportunities. If you
desire access to some of the best schools like Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, Cambridge or MIT, then
knowing English provides you an incredible edge. It’s expected that around 2 billion people around the

Viet Nam's Past Educational System
In comparison with other developing countries, Viet Nam’s population enjoys a relatively high
standard of education. In the past, Viet Nam’s educational system was affected by many cultures, of
which the Chinese and French had most significant influence.
The Imperial Academy - the first university in Viet Nam - was built in 1076 under Emperor Ly Nhan
Tong for the education of sons of royalty and other high-ranking officials. In 1252, the college was
opened to students from various backgrounds besides royal or official ones.
Before the French came, the old-type Mandarin system administered Viet Nam for approximately
2,000 years. As the French took over the government’s administration, it was converted from a
Confucian system into a Western-oriented one.
In order to participate in the civil service under the French rule, the Vietnamese had to convert to the
French system and were required to know the French language. In addition, they had to have a good
facility with the new version of their language instead of the traditional Chinese characters which had
been in use for hundreds of years.
At the beginning of 1900, the whole system was revised. An educational system of three levels was
established: elementary, primary, and secondary education. In addition, the use of the national
language (Quoc Ngu) was added to the curriculum. Emphasis was placed on rote learning, class
discipline and other French educational methods. Several new schools and colleges were established.
Accordingly, French became the second language of much importance to the students.

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 around 1350, after
having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the Norman invasion off
1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not expanded
even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two centuries,
English began too spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade),
colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English, speakers became established and
grew in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated, English gradually became the
primary language of international business, banking, and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in English.
Two thirds of the world's science writing is in English, and English is the main language of technology,
advertising, media, international airport, and air traffic controllers. Today there are more

correct answer to each of the questions that follow.
Fathers used to act as the ‘breadwinner' of their family, and as the teacher of moral and religious
values. Today, however, those roles are gradually changing.
Changes in economic roles
More and more women are going out to work and earn money. This increases the budget of the family.
Apart from that, there are various social welfare programmes which financially assist mothers in
supporting their children. Both these changes have greatly impacted the role of fathers because they
make paternal financial support less essential for many families.
Changes in caregiving 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 caregiving. 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.

In 79 A.D., the ancient Roman city of Pompeii was destroyed by the eruption of a nearby volcano, Mt.
Vesuvius. Although many other cities in history have been victims to eruptions of volcanoes and their
deadly gas, lava, and ash, what makes Pompeii especially interesting is what happened years later. In
1748, explorers in the Italian region where Pompeii once stood made an incredible discovery. Buried
underneath layers of dirt, the city of Pompeii remained preserved. The original volcanic explosion had
happened so quickly that most of the citizens were unable to escape. Their remains and the buildings of
the city were still there, preserved, as if the year was still 79 A.D. instead of 1748. Some were frozen
as if running from the fiery inferno while others were engaged in normal daily activities. The layers of
dust had frozen the day in history.
Archeologists would later begin the careful process of excavating the now famous city from the layers
of ash. The tragedy of Pompeii is the loss of the city and the approximately two thousand people who
died during the eruption. Ironically, the deadly eruption helped preserve Pompeii so that no one will
ever forget the name of this ancient Roman civilization.

VIII. Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions that follow.
Today we hear more and more about the importance of getting enough sleep. Sleep can give energy to
both our bodies and our brains. It can also affect our feelings, behaviour, and memory.
Studies have shown that people in some countries spend less time sleeping and more time working. But
our bodies cannot work well without enough sleep. Losing just one or two hours of sleep a night, over
a long period of time, can badly affect our health. We cannot work for many hours; we can get angry
easily; and we can even lose our IQ points. That explains why, without enough sleep, an intelligent
person may have difficulty doing daily tasks.
Studies have also shown that the time of year seems to affect how much sleep we need. People usually
sleep longer in the winter, sometimes as much as 14 hours a night. However, in the summer, they
sometimes sleep as little as six hours, without having any problems.

You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you understand the assignment
and its requirement. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to. It is much easier to
take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!
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.
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 for 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 may be you need some help. The first place to turn
for help is your teacher. But if you don't feel comfortable with your teacher, 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. In order to make homework less stressful, the first thing to do is _______.

To some people, there is nothing more appetizing than the smell of meat sizzling over an open fire.

family to enjoy a meal that brings them back to their caveman roots. Cooking over coals or an open
flame makes people feel more sociable.
Most countries have barbecue traditions, and they usually take place on national holidays. In the
United States, it is a tradition to have a barbecue of hamburgers and hot dogs on July 4, which is

sausages are put on a large grill together over hot coals. Barbecue is even considered the national dish
in Argentina, and it is given the name asado in Portuguese. This means not only the dish, but also the
social event that surrounds an Argentinian barbecue.

mind. The tradition of taking different meats, and sometimes vegetables as well, and spearing them
with a sharp stick called a skewer has crossed cultural lines today. Practically anywhere in the English-

You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you understand the assignment
and its requirement. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to. It is much easier to
take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!
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.
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 for 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 may be you need some help. The first place to turn
for help is your teacher. But if you don't feel comfortable with your teacher, 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: In order to make homework less stressful, the first thing to do is _______.
A. to understand what you have to do in your assignment

questions that follow.
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.

but they cannot do the students’ work for him.

Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions that follow.
Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best
method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?
The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all
the time. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is
that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. At home, it is always possible to
speak Vietnamese if you want to and the learning is slower.
On the other hand, there are also advantages to staying at home to study. You don't have to make big
changes to your life. As well as this, it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible
to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher, I think you can learn in a more
concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school.
So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend
some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being at home is the only viable
option. The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximise your opportunities: to speak
only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class.

A. How many people learn English.

D. The language schools in the UK are always better.
Question 30. What is one of the advantages of staying at home to learn English?
A. The teachers aren't very good in Britain.
B. You have to work too hard to make money in Britain.
C. You can concentrate on learning English only.
D. Your life can continue more or less as it was before.

Education in England Every child in England between the age of five and fifteen must attend schools.
There are three main types of educational institutions, primary (elementary) schools, secondary
schools, and universities.
Like most countries in the world, there are two types of schools in England, independent schools (fee-
paying schools) and state schools in which students do not have to pay tuition fees. In both types,
attendance is compulsory. Morning classes begin at nine o dock and last until half past four in the
afternoon. After classes, most English children often stay at school and take part in extracurricular
activities like sports, singing and dancing. Schools are open five days a week. On Saturdays and
Sundays there are no lessons. There are holidays at Christmas, Easter and in summer. In London as in
all cities there are two grades of schools for those who will go to work at fifteen: primary schools for
boys and girls between the ages of five and eleven, and secondary schools for children from eleven to
fifteen.
Besides such compulsory lessons as reading, writing, the English language, English literature, English
history, geography, science, and nature study, children in England can take many optional subjects like
drawing, painting, singing, or woodwork to develop their aptitudes.

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.
Music influences people in different ways or the same person differently at different times. Music may
seem to influence people differently. That is because people can react differently to the music. We are
able to apply a choosing process to the music we hear. If someone hates jazz, then a jazz piece with a
positive effect will probably not make him feel good. A happy song might appear to make an angry
person angrier, yet it is not the music itself that is creating the anger; rather it is the positive effect of
the music. The angry person does not want to accept the song's happy feeling: it points out his already
existing anger, and makes that anger come to the surface. When a piece of music is played and we are
listening to it, our body, mind, and feelings are being affected. The musicians of ancient cultures such
as China, India, Turkey and Greece understood the effects of music. In fact, Pathagoras, in ancient
Greece, introduced a whole science that concerned them. Because the musicians of these ancient
cultures understood these effects, they created music that was positive, uplifting, and beneficial. Once
the effects of music are better understood, the next step is to gain a better understanding of the music
around us, and what effect it is actually having.

VIII. Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions that follow.
Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best
method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?
The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all
the time. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is
that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. At home, it is always possible to
speak Vietnamese if you want to and the learning is slower.
On the other hand, there are also advantages to staying at home to study. You don’t have to make big
changes to your life. As well as this, it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible
to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher, I think you can learn in a more
concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school.
So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend
some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being at home is the
only viable option. The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximise your opportunities:
to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class.
28. What is probably the topic of the passage?
A. How many people learn English
B. The best way to learn English
C. English schools in England and America
D. Learning English in Viet Nam
29. What is one of the advantages of going to the UK to learn English?
A. There are no Vietnamese people in Britain.
B. There are very good teachers of English there.
C. You will have to speak English and not your language.
D. The language schools in the UK are always better.
30. What is one of the advantages of staying at home to learn English?
A. The teachers aren’t very good in Britain.
B. You have to work too hard to make money in Britain.
C. You can concentrate on learning English only.
D. Your life can continue more or less as it was before.
31. The underlined word "viable" in the passage probably means ________.
A. possible B. understandable C. important D. careful
32. People who don’t have a lot of time and money should ________.
A. learn English in Britain
B. try and speak English in class more often
C. go to America to learn English
D. speak English more outside the class

In the earliest times children got their education directly from parents and other adults. They learned
mainly skills for survival. Adults passed down this knowledge through spoken language. Eventually
cultures around the world began inventing writing. As societies developed they set up schools to teach
reading, writing, maths and other subjects.
The first schools were usually just for boys. Most of the students came from rich and powerful
families. Often the purpose of their education was religious training. In many cultures the religious
leaders formed the highest level of society. Some schools had other purposes as well. Many schools
focused on military training. Sometimes youths attended special schools to learn the art of public
speaking. These skills were meant to help them become future leaders.
Most girls received their education at home. They learned cooking, sewing and other useful skills.
Over time education became available to more people, not just the rich and powerful. The governments
of some countries set up public systems of education in the 1800s. More schools opened to girls.

We need to eat to meet our nutritional needs, but people often make their food choices for reasons
other than nutrition. The availability of foods and their cost, the taste and appearance of foods, personal
food likes and dislikes, convenience, religious and cultural practices and traditions, health and medical
conditions, etc. are reasons why people eat the foods that they eat.
The foods in people’s diets around the world are very different from each other, but all good diets must
be composed of a variety of different foods that provide all of the food energy and other nutrients in
the amounts needed. For most people, a good meal will be based on a starchy food, sometimes referred
to as a “staple” food, as it forms the basis or main portion of the meal, and a variety of other foods
(side dishes) that provide the additional protein, vitamins and minerals needed for a good, healthy diet.
Staple foods are usually starchy carbohydrates such as rice, pasta, bread, couscous, maize (corn),
potatoes, and foods made from wheat, rice, rye, barley or oats. The other foods eaten with the meal
should include generous amounts of vegetables and fruits; good amounts of legumes; smaller amounts
of meat, poultry, eggs or fish and milk and milk products, such as cheese and yoghurt. The greater the
variety of side dishes served with the staple food, the greater the chance that all the needed nutrients
are included in the meal.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the s that follow .
It is sometimes very difficult to decide which career to choose when you leave school. British students
are helped by careers teachers, who inform them about different careers, the qualifications needed and
try to help them make up their minds. Mr Hemming, a career teacher as well as a History teacher, talks
about his experience.
‘I’ve been a careers teacher for around five years and, on the whole, I’ve found it a rewarding
experience. Our students have careers lessons once a week for the fourth and the fifth years (15 and 16
years old). My task consists of explaining as accurately as possible the qualifications required for each
job, as well as the type of work and personal skills involved.
Advising teenagers can be rather difficult – some youngsters have no idea at all of what they want to
do, or of what the real world outside school really is. They come to me and say ‘I don’t like routine
nine-to-five jobs… I’d like something exciting that pays well…’ What can I say? That we’re running
out of exciting jobs? But they usually end up facing reality and come down to their senses after a
while…
Anyway here in school we only give them a piece of advice according to what we know about their
favourite and weakest subjects, pastimes and personality. But if you ask me, things are happening so
quickly around here, with our economy in the dumps that sometimes you just don’t know what to say.
A few days ago I asked a fifteen- year-old boy what job he had in mind and he replied ‘I haven’t any
plans… You see, Sir, I don’t know what new jobs will replace today’s’. What could I say?
32. How often do British students have careers lessons?

You've probably heard the expression “Laughter is the best medicine”. Well, scientists and medical
doctors now agree that laughter can help people deal with stress and anger. Research has also shown
that people who feel happy and relaxed are healthier and have better relationships. Laughter yoga is a
series of exercises which teaches you to laugh for no reason. You don't need to have a sense of
humour, or understand funny jokes. You just have to laugh. When you do laughter yoga in a group,
you laugh and do yoga breathing, so that you increase the amount of oxygen in your body. Soon the
laughter exercises turn into real laughter. After a laughter yoga class, you feel calm and relaxed, but
also happy and full of energy. Laughter yoga was developed by a medical doctor from India, Dr.
Madan Kataria. He started the first laughter yoga classes in a park in Mumbai in 1995 with just five
people, and now there are over six thousand laughter clubs in sixty different countries.
Companies who have run laughter yoga workshops find that they have advantages for both

money for the company. Also, people who can laugh together, communicate more successfully. In

In the early years of television, educational specialists believed that it would be very useful in teaching
and learning. Many schools have bought television sets, intending to use them effectively to improve
the quality of education; but actually they are rarely used properly in classroom. Meanwhile, children
spend the majority of their out-of-school hours watching TV and their typical school days proceed as if
television did not exist.
There are some explanations for the failure of television to get the interest of the teachers. Firstly, the
school that purchased television sets have not set aside money for equipment repairs and maintenance,
so these television sets are sooner and later out of order. Secondly, these schools have not found an
effective way to train teachers to integrate television into their ongoing instructional programs. Lastly,
most teachers do not regard the quality of television and its usefulness in the classroom.
Teachers at schools work hard for at least twelve years to train their students to become good readers.

newspaperr but watching television instead.

dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in school. This is a normal
development at this age, though it can be very hard for parents to understand. It is part of becoming
independent of teenagers trying to be adult while they are still growing up. Young people are usually
more willing to talk if they believe that questions are asked out of real interest and not because people
are trying to check up on them.

Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions that follow.
Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high- quality protein, eggs also
contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in
fact, contains a little more than two- thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has
driven egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of
several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs. These eggs
substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the
advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in banking. One
disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A second alternative
to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called "designer" eggs. These eggs are produced by
hens that are fed low- flat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite
of their diet, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular
eggs. Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in
humans.
Eggs producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to back
up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels
have brought mixed results. It may be that is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of
cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol
derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certainly dietary fats stimulate the
body's production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one's intake of
eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help
reduce the blood cholesterol level.
28. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the idea that dietary fat increases the blood cholesterol level.
B. To make people how about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol,
C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten.
D. To convince people to eat "designer" eggs and egg substitutes.
29. What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. Increasing price B. Decreased production
C. Dietary changes in hens D. Concerns about cholesterol
30. What is meant by the phrase "mixed results"?
A. The results are blended
B. The results are a composite of things.
C. The results are inconclusive.
D. The results are mingled together.
31. Which of the following could best replace the word "somewhat"?
A. in fact B. a little C. indefinitely D. a lot
32. According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested
daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol?
A. 3/4 B. 2/3 C. 1/2 D. 1/3
