Ha Long Bay
Ha Long Bay is a group of offshore islands that is the best example of marine invaded limestone region
in the world. The Bay holds over 1,600 islands and islets. There are caves and grottoes, with stalactites
and stalagmites. Its limestone pillars are a unique natural feature of great scenic beauty and biological
interest. The great extent and the richness of its forms sets it apart from many other sites.
The natural beauty of the Bay lay hidden today under a very common fog. As I had already seen the
similar karst landscape in China a couple of years before, I certainly said that I was blown away by the
beauty of Ha Long Bay. We went onto one of the islands to visit the Surprising Cave - an indeed
surprisingly big and beautiful cave with three hollow chambers. We saw some monkeys here too, just
outside the cave exit.
Part of the tour was half an hour of kayaking - enough to paddle a full circle around the main area. The
views from the kayak I found much more impressive than from the larger boat: you're so tiny then and
the peaks rise sharply in front of you. I had a better look at the water too, and cannot say that I saw
pollution by plastic or other junk floating around. There is a thin layer of oil on the water in some parts
though.
And then it's time to get back in the bus to Ha Noi, another 3.5 hours. The tour was carried out well with
good seafood for lunch and I had a satisfying day.
1. The attraction that Ha Long Bay offer to tourists is ______________.
A. a large number of islands and islets B. the largest limestone region in the world
C. its caves and grottoes, with stalactites and stalagmites D. its unique value of landscape and biology
2. The writer was ______________.
A. able to escape from an explosion in Ha Long Bay B. very impressed by the beauty of Ha Long Bay
C. unable to see Ha Long Bay due to the fog D. really frightened of visiting the Surprising Cave
3. All of the following statements are true about Ha Long Bay EXCEPT that ______________.
A. the writer thought its beauty surpassed many other sites
B. the writer didn’t think the number of tourists had decreased over the years
C. the writer saw some monkeys in the chambers of the Surprising Cave
D. it took three and a half hours to travel from Ha Noi to Ha Long by bus
4. During half an hour of kayaking, the writer found that ______________.
A. he was more impressed by the view from the kayak than by that from the boat
B. the problem of pollution there was serious with plastic or other junk floating around
C. he could see the peaks rise sharply in front of him
D. he could see a thin layer of oil on the water in a full circle around the main area
5. The word “karst” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______________.

C. READING SKILLS
1. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions.
One way of training for your future occupation in Germany is by pursuing a dual vocational
training programme. Such programmes offer plenty of opportunity for on-the-job training and
work experience. Programmes usually last between two and three and a half years and comprise
theoretical as well as practical elements. You will spend one or two days a week, or several
weeks at once, at a vocational school where you will acquire the theoretical knowledge that you
will need in your future occupation. The rest of the time will be spent at a company. There you
get to apply your newly acquired knowledge in practice, for example by learning to operate
machinery. You will get to know what your company does, learn how it operates and find out if
you can see yourself working there after completing your training.
 This combination of theory and practice gives you a real head start into your job: by the time you
have completed your training, you will not only have the required technical knowledge, but you
will also have hands-on experience in your job. There are around 350 officially recognised
training programmes in Germany, so chances are good that one of them will suit your interests
and talents. You can find out which one that might be by visiting one of the jobs and vocational
training fairs which are organised in many German cities at different times in the year.
Employment prospects for students who have completed a dual vocational training programme
are very good. This is one of the reasons why this kind of training is very popular with young
Germans: around two thirds of all students leaving school go on to start a vocational training
programme.
