VI. Read the passage, and then answer the questions.
Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go to their offices, factories or schools
everyday by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up earlier in the morning and come home
later in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a
garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of
one's own.
Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Although one has to get up earlier
and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night, and during weekends. In summer evenings
one enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging,
planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden.
Notes:
- even though/ although : mặc dù
- advantage (n) : (sự) thuận lợi
- rent (v) : thuê mướn
- dig (v) : đào bới, xới
- water (v) : tưới nước

11
- of one's own : của riêng mình
- mean (v) : có nghĩa là

"Water polo is a new sport at our school, but we have a good team now. We practise after school
on Thursday at the Northside Pool and we're doing well in the National Schools Competition.
There are seven players in a water polo team. The game is a bit like football because each team
tries to score a goal with a ball. But in water polo you don't use your feet - you catch and throw the
ball with one hand. And you never stop swimming. A game lasts 32 minutes, and in that time you
swim up and down a 30-metre pool lots of times. If you aren't fit, water polo isn't the sport for you!
For me, it's great, because I love being in the water and I can swim fast. I also enjoy being part of
a team. We have some excellent players and we're all good friends. So it's fun, and it's also a
fantastic way to get fit."

prepared by wives or mothers and the whole family is expected to eat. However, families now may

Tastes, cooking methods and dishes are different between the three regions: the North, the
Central, and the South. Nowadays, these differences have become small.
When families do not have time to prepare meals, they eat out. Employees have lunch
somewhere nearby the work places.
Since Viet Nam opened its doors to foreign investors, more foreigners have stayed and worked in
Viet Nam. As a result, more foreign restaurants have been opened in Viet Nam, especially in big
cities.
Young people in Viet Nam now like fast food because of its conveniences. Vietnamese food fast

VII. Read the passage, and the decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

Chu Van An was born in 1292 and died in 1370. From his childhood, he was famous for his
intelligence. He did not have the dream of taking part in exams to become mandarins like other
students. Chu Van An stayed at home and taught himself by reading books, and opened schools. His
school quickly became famous in the region and many students from other places went there to study.
Emperor Tran Minh Tong invited Chu Van An to be the principal of the Imperial Academy to
teach his crown prince and other students to become talented people for the country. In 1359,
Emperor Tran Minh Tong gave his crown to his son, Tran Hien Tong, who was also a student of Chu
Van An. Under the regime of Emperor Tran Hien Tong, the court and the country were peaceful.
However, this period lasted only for 12 years. Then Emperor Tran Hien Tong died, and Tran Du
Tong inherited the crown. The social situation became complicated, the people were very poor and
hard and many good people were killed.
Chu Van An bravely submitted a petition which requested the Emperor to behead 7 perfidious
mandarins, so it was called “Seven Beheaded Petition” (That Tram So). “Seven Beheaded Petition”
became the symbol of the courageous attitude of the real intellectuals, and of Chu Van An’s spirit.

Hue Temple of Literature
In Hue, the Temple of Literature is located on the bank of the Huong River, to the west of the
Citadel, just 1 kilometer from Linh Mu Pagoda.
Hue Temple of Literature was built in 1908 during the reign of Emperor Gia Long, on the top of
a hill. Over the years afterwards, the temple has gone through several major I restoration works.
The remaining of the complex consists of about 50 architectural works, the biggest of which is
the worshiping hall of Confucius.
After going past the main gate, we would see several small houses where kings and mandarins
would stop by to prepare their costumes before going inside to attend the ceremony. At the front
there are two rows of 32 stone tablets bearing the names of 239 successful candidates in National
Examinations organized through the Nguyen Dynasty. Although the monument has been damaged
during the war, the main temple and especially the Doctors’ stone tablets still remain.
Today, people visiting the Temple of Literature can see a unique symbol of Vietnam educational

Van Mieu - Quoc Tu Giam (Temple of Literature - Imperial Academy)
The Temple of Literature was built in 1070 under the reign of Emperor Ly Thanh Tong to honour
Confucius and later used as a royal school, where Emperor Ly Nhan Tong studied when he was a
five- year-old prince.
The Imperial Academy, which can be considered Vietnam’s first university, was built in 1076
next to the temple. Over the next seven centuries and more, the university produced thousands of
scholars for the country. Under the reign of Emperor Tran Minh Tong (1314-1329), the teacher Chu
Van An, was appointed the school’s principal. After his death in 1370, Emperor Tran Nghe Tong
(1321 - 1394) had him worshiped beside Confucius at the Temple of Literature. Many schools in
Vietnam are also named after Chu Ban An.
In 1946, the Imperial Academy in Hanoi was destroyed by French bombing, but gradually
restored later.
To enter the main area of the Temple of Literature, visitors must go through three gates. The first
gate is called Van Mieu Mon; the second is called Dai Trung Mon and the third, Dai Thanh Mon.
In the space between Dai Trung Mon and Dai Thanh Mon is the one-storey, two-roof pavilion
called Khue Van Cac. Behind Khue Van Cac is the Thien Quang Tinh (Well of Heavenly Clarity),
on either side of which 41 Doctors’ stone tablets stand in two rows. They stand upon stone turtles
with the names and birthplaces of successful doctoral candidates from the examinations held at the
Imperial Academy from 1484 to 1780.
Now as a major tourist site, the Temple of Literature - Imperial Academy also hosts award
ceremonies to recognize outstanding students. An annual poetry festival is held here on the 15 th of
the first lunar month.

IX. Read the film review, and decide whether the statements are true (T), or false (F), and tick
the correct box.
Have you ever read Alice In Wonderland, by Lewis Carol? I did and I really like it. It’s an
adventure story full of magic and danger. Yesterday I saw Tim Burton’s version of the film at the
cinema.
This story is about Alice, who is now a teenager. A man wants to marry her, but she runs away
and falls down a rabbit hole. She travels to Wonderland, which she has visited before as a child, and
meets a lot of amazing characters on her adventures.
There are a lot of good special effects in the film. The Red Queen, played by Helena Bonham
Carter, is very scary, and Johnny Depp is brilliant as the Mad Hatter. He has acted in a lot of films
before but this is my favourite one. Mia Waslkowska is good as Alice; this is her first big film and I
think she’s going to become a big star!
Overall, I think this is a good film for teenagers, but it’s a bit long. You should see it if you like
fantasy and adventure, but don’t go if you like romances: it’s not a love story.

My favourite actors
I like a lot of different actors, but my real favourites are Daniel Craig and Halle Berry.
Daniel Craig is British and he’s a really talented actor. He’s been in a lot of different kinds of
films including action adventure, science fiction, and romantic drama, but he always gives an
excellent performance. He was brilliant in Tomb Raider as Alex West, but my favourite film is
Casino Royale. I think Daniel Craig is a fantastic James Bond.
Halle Berry is American. She was a model, but then decided to become an actress. I like her
because she’s beautiful. She’s a good actress and I think she has a great sense of humour. I’m not
keen on some of her films, such as Catwoman, but her other films are excellent. My favourite is X-
Men which is a science fiction film. She plays the main character Storm, who has the ability to
change the weather.
Daniel Craig and Halle Berry are both entertaining and talented actors. I love watching their
films.

Songkran in Thailand’s most famous festival. An important event on the Buddhist calendar, this
water festival marks the beginning of the traditional Thai New Year. Water is an important element
of Songkran, especially in more recent times when the throwing of water has become a huge part of
the annual celebrations. If you’re visiting Thailand during this period, don’t be surprised if you get
splashed. Crowds of people roam around throwing buckets of water, using water pistols and just
generally soaking anyone in the vicinity. Appreciation of family is another important aspect of the
festival, with many Thai people making their way to their hometowns to spend time with older
relatives. Buddhists also visit temples throughout Songkran where water is poured on Buddha images
and on the hands of Buddhist monks as a mark of respect.
Without a doubt, Songkran is a hugely important festival to the Thai people but it’s also very
popular with visitors and many tourists specifically arrange their holidays around this unique event.
Anyone and everyone can and will get involved in the celebrations. If you’re out and about during
Songkran, you’re almost guaranteed to end up soaked but you’ll have lots of fun in the process!
