Yesterday, on the way home from school, I saw an accident. A boy was run over by a taxi when
he was riding his bicycle. The boy's leg was broken and it was bleeding badly. Someone there tried to
stop the bleeding. They put pressure on it and held it tight. A man used his mobile phone to call the
emergency service. Some minutes later, an ambulance arrived and sent the boy to the hospital. Two
policemen came to the scene immediately. Some people told the police that the taxi driver was driving
at a very high speed when the accident happened. Some others began talking about the traffic accidents
these days and blamed the increasing number of accidents on the roads for careless driving and drunk
drivers.

Exercise 2. Fill in the blank with a word/ phrase in the box.
discourage transport pollution expensive
problem trains cities example
Traffic congestion in many (1) ________________ around the world is severe. One possible
solution to this (2) ________________ is to impose heavy taxes on car drivers and use this money to
make public transport better. One of the first benefits of such a measure is that the heavy taxes would
(3) ________________ car owners from using their cars because it would become very (4)
________________ to drive. This would mean that they would begin to make use of public (5)
________________ instead, thus reducing traffic problems and (6) ________________ as well.
Another benefit would be that much more use would be made of public transport if it was improved. It
is often the case that public transport in cities is very poor. For (7) ________________, we often see
old buses and (8) ________________ that people would rather not use. High taxes would generate
enough money to make the necessary changes.
Exercise 3. Read the texts about model good road safety behavior at all times for parents, and
then answer the questions.
Top tips for pedestrian safety
- Teach your children to hold hands with an adult whenever they go out.
- Always use a zebra crossing when one is available and teach children that these are the safest places
to cross.
- Teach children that it’s still important to stop, look and listen at a zebra crossing.
- Teach children always to stop at the kerb and look and listen for traffic (a third of children injured on
roads said that they didn’t stop before stepping off the kerb and many said they didn’t look).
- Never use your mobile phone while crossing roads.
- Children learn to make decisions about crossing the road and parents gradually let them take a lead
when you are crossing together.
- As children get older, practise routes with them before they walk alone.
Top tips for cycling
- Always encourage children to wear a cycle helmet when they are on their bikes, and set a good
example by wearing one yourself.
- Children need to be able to judge speed and distance accurately before they cycle on public roads.
They need to take lessons on cycling in order to travel more widely on their bikes.
- Make sure children wear bright coloured clothing and fluorescent items whenever they are cycling on
the road. And if they are cycling in the dark, they will need lights on their bikes and reflective items
too. And of course, make sure you do this yourself, to set a good example.

Exercise 1. Read the text and then choose the best answer A, B, C, or D.
Almost all our energy comes from oil, coal and natural gas. We call them fossil fuels. The earths
fossil fuels are running out. What would happen if there were no oil, coal and gas on earth?
Scientists are trying to find and use other alternative sources of energy. We can use energy from
the sun, the wind and the water.
Solar energy is unlimited. It supplies all the energy used to grow plants, to evaporate water for
rain, and to maintain the temperature of the planet. All are necessary for human life. If were able to
collect solar energy, we’ll be sure to make good use of this abundant source of power.
Another source of energy from nature is the wind. Wind power is clean and plentiful. Energy
from the wind has been used for centuries to move ships, grind grain, pump water and do other kinds of
work. In more recent time, wind power has been used to generate electricity.
Water can also provide power. For a long time, people have used water to power machines. Some
early uses of water power were to mill grain, saw wood and power machinery for the textile industry.
Today water power is mostly used to generate electricity.

words). Chúng thường là các từ loại sau:
Content words Examples
Danh từ table, dog, house

III. READING
Exercise 1. Read the passage then decide whether the statements are True (T) or False (F).
A rocket uses fuel to make power for the engine. The fuel is set on fire inside the rocket. As the
fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure. These gases are blasted out of the rocket engines.
These gases all go out the bottom of the rocket engine where it is open. They come out so fast and
with so much power that the rocket is pushed up. It is pushed up so hard that the rocket overcomes the
force of gravity, which tries to keep everything on the ground. The force that pushes up against the
front of the rocket is called thrust.
Unlike an airplane, a rocket does not use wings to help it fly. It just uses the power and force created by
the burning fuel to make enough thrust.
True (T)
No. Statements or False
(F)
1. A rocket uses the energy from wind to make power for the engine.
2. When the fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure.
3. These gases come so fast but they have little power.
4. The rocket is pushed up because it overcomes the force of gravity.
5. The rocket has two wings which help it fly.

New Zealand is a small country in the southern Pacific Ocean. There are two main islands, the

kilometres, about the same size as the United Kingdom.
Maori people arrived from the Pacific in the 10 th century, and by the 12th century there were many
Maori settlements along the coasts of New Zealand. The Maori name for New Zealand is Aotearoa,
which means ‘The land of the long white cloud'. Seven hundred years later, large numbers of
Europeans started to settle in New Zealand. According to Government figures, the population of New
Zealand in 2015 was over four million, and of these, about 75 percent lived in the North Island.
There are four main cities. Auckland, in the north, is the largest city with a population of over one
million people. Auckland's population includes many different nationalities. For example, there are
large groups of European, Maori, Pacific Island, Chinese and Indian people. Together with other
smaller groups, they make Auckland an interesting and exciting place to live.
Although Wellington is the capital, the centre of government, it is smaller and quieter than
Auckland with a population of350,000. The main cities in the South Island are Christchurch, known as
the Garden City, and Dunedin, which is often compared to a small Scottish city.
