Read the passage, then choose the one best answer.
We are already at 6.3 billion in population and that may have something to do with our inability to eradicate hunger and poverty in the world. The world’s populations continue to expand every year, even as the political leaders give a lot of other reasons. The more populous the world is, the more problems we have to suffer. In other words, the world needs more money to pay for the fixes. All of the social problems of the world would be much easier to solve with a declining population, and better to accomplish this through enlightened policies than through plagues and wars. Although with progress in science and technology, food resources are increased, the world’s population expands to overwhelm the increased productivity. We need healthy ecosystems, but in our pursuit of progress, we have destroyed good parts of our rural landscapes and wildlife. Our whole experience shows that we can run out of our resources in the future. We, the human beings of the modern world, have always been able to invent ourselves out of problems. We tend to see only the good side of science and technology. We are enjoying our comfortable material life without any attention to the natural resources. We really do not care much about the environment.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Curling is an event in the Winter Olympics that is played on an ice rink. This event requires a high level of skill and dexterity. The equipment includes stones with handles and brushes to sweep the ice.
Two teams of four compete to get a stone as close as possible to the centre of a series of concentric circles. Hitting the target is more complicated than it seems. The two teams alternate to throw their stones. It is possible to remove a stone from a play area by hitting it with another stone or to use a stone to protect another stone. To assist in the progress of the stone across the ice, the other players will use their brushes to sweep the path in front of the stone so as to influence the direction and distance it can travel.
In sixteenth century Scotland, stones were taken from the bottom of ponds. In North America, the metal-rimmed hubcaps of carriages with handles attached were used. In eighteenth century Canada, there were iron "stones" that weighed more than thirty kilograms. The game would have required more strength in the past than today.
Curling was first introduced as a break from the drudgery of work and a way of alleviating the monotony of the long winters. Curling is catching on today. There is an increase in the number of countries taking part in the Winter Olympics for this event. Ever since the beginning, this game has been enjoyed by both the young and old.

Read the passage and then choose the best answer.
The sun has produced energy for billions of years. Solar energy is the solar radiation that reaches the earth.
Solar energy can be converted directly or indirectly into other forms of energy, such as heat and electricity. The major drawbacks of solar energy are the discontinuous and variable manner in which it arrives at the earth's surface and, the large area required to collect it at a useful rate.
Solar energy is used for heating water for domestic use, space heating of buildings, drying agricultural products, and generating electrical energy. In the 1830s, the British astronomer John Herschel used a solar collector box to cook food during an expedition to Africa. Now, people are trying to use the sun's energy for lots of things.
Electric utilities are trying photovoltaic, a process by which solar energy is converted directly to electricity. Electricity can be produced directly from solar energy using special devices or indirectly from steam generators using solar heat collectors to heat up a working fluid.
Out of the 14 known solar electric generating units operating in the US at the end of 2004, 10 of these are in California, and 4 in Arizona. No statistics are being collected on solar plants that produce less than 1 megawatt of electricity, so there may be smaller solar plants in a number of other states.
0Câu 36
How can solar energy be converted?
A. It can hardly be converted because there are too many difficulties.
B.It can be converted both directly and indirectly.
C. It can be converted directly.
D. It can be converted indirectly.
Câu 37
What are the difficulties of using solar energy?
A. It needs large space to collect the energy at a useful rate.
B.The way the sun radiation reaches the earth surface is various and irregular.
C.
D. Large space for energy collecting at a useful rate is required and the way of the sun reaching the earth surface is unpredictable.
Câu 38
What is NOT mentioned about the use of solar energy?
A. It is used for drying clothes.
B.It is used for drying agricultural products.
C. It is used for heating space in buildings.
D. It is used for cooking.
Câu 39
In the first sentence of the last paragraph, 10 out of 14 known solar electric generating units are in California means:
A. Among 14 solar electric generating units from California, 10 are known.
B.Among 14 known solar electric generating units, 10 units are from California.
C. 10 known solar electric generating units are from California, 14 others are not.

Read the passage, then choose the one best answer.
The first cause of global greenhouse gas emissions is over-population. In 1950, the world population was 3 billion, now 6.5 billion people who produce an enormous output of waste and utilize an unbelievable amount of resources and energy. Most people having children have no idea why they are even having children. Most do not really love their children because if they did they would be very much involved in trying to ensure that their children have a world to survive in. Unless overpopulation is addressed, there is no way of slowing down greenhouse gas emissions. But corporations need workers, governments need taxpayers, bureaucrats and soldiers. More people means more money. The solution to all of our problems is simple. We just need to live in accordance with the basic laws of ecology. Weaken diversity and the entire system will be weakened and will ultimately collapse. All of the species within an ecosystem are interdependent. There is a limit to growth because there is a limit to carrying capacity. Human populations are exceeding carrying capacity and diminishing resources and diversity of species. Albert Einstein wrote that “if the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would have only four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.” And the honey bee is disappearing. Why? We do not know why. All around the world bees are disappearing and bees pollinate our plants. We are cutting down forests and plundering the oceans. We are polluting the soil, the air and the water and rapidly running out of fresh water to drink. Water is now being sold for more than the equivalent amount of gasoline.

Read the passage, then choose the one best answer.
You have probably heard about the unappealing dried foods that astronauts eat in space, such as the chalky ice cream and powdered pea soup. That means all the water is removed from those foods. But did you know that there are more than 90 different food and drink items on NASA’s space menu? (NASA is the American government organization concerned with spacecraft and space travel. NASA is an abbreviation for ‘National Aeronautics and Space Administration’) Many food items are dehydrated to prevent bacteria growing, so water must be added before consumption. But some foods look like those ready meals you find in the supermarkets, made hot in the microwave. In fact, the chefs have recently provided some gorgeous meals for the space crew. Astronauts choose their individual food selections on Earth, getting to taste it all first beforehand. Drinking is another matter. Although much is brought up with the astronauts and in cargo deliveries, a lot is recycled from human waste water. Yes, the water they use could have been someone else’s urine a day ago. You cannot be squeamish if you are an astronaut!

Read the passage, then choose the one best answer.
It was July 20, 1969 when hundreds of millions of people watched on television as Apollo 11 astronaut, Neil Armstrong, walked on the surface of the moon for the first time. “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind,” Armstrong said. Those words remain famous to this day. The historic trip was not easy. In 1960s, space travel was very dangerous. Armstrong said later, “There were just a thousand things to worry about.” Although Armstrong was the first astronaut to step on the surface of the Moon, astronauts Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins, whom many people credit for the successful mission, were also aboard Apollo 11. After the successful landing, Aldrin and Armstrong planted the U.S. flag on the moon’s soil. They collected rocks and left a plaque that read “Here on From Planet Earth First Set Foot Upon The Moon. July 1969 A.D. We Came In Peace For All Mankind.” Although the astronauts were successful in reaching the moon, another obstacle was returning to earth safely. After successfully leaving the moon, the crew landed about 812 nautical miles off the coast of Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean. They were met by members of the U.S. Navy to bring them safely to shore. Armstrong called their mission the “beginning of a new age.” Although there were flights to the moon after Apollo 11’s journey, the last trip to the moon was in 1972. We hope there will be many more moon visits to come.

Read the passage and choose the best answer to fill in each blank.
The traditional definition of literacy is considered to be the ability to read and write, or the ability to use language to read, write, listen, and speak. In modern contexts, the word refers to reading and writing at a level adequate for communication, or at a level that lets one understand and communicate ideas in a literate society, so as to take part in that society. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has drafted the following definition: “Literacy is the ability to identify, understand, interpret, create, communicate and compute, using printed and written materials associated with varying contexts. Literacy involves a continuum of learning to enable an individual to achieve his or her goals, to develop his or her knowledge and potential, and to participate fully in the wider society.”
Policy makers also argue that literacy increases job opportunities and access to higher education. In Kerala, India, for example, female and child mortality rates declined dramatically in the 1960s, when girls who were educated in the educational reforms after 1948 began to raise families. Recent researchers, however, argue that correlations such as the one listed above may have more to do with the effects of schooling rather than literacy in general. Regardless, the focus of educational systems worldwide include a basic concept around communication through text and print, which is the foundation of most definitions of literacy.
Asian, Arab and Sub-Saharan African countries are regions with the lowest literacy rates at about 10% to 12%. East Asia and Latin America have illiteracy rates in the 10 to 15% region while developed countries have illiteracy rates of a few percent. Within ethnically homogeneous regions, literacy rates can vary widely from region to region. This often coincides with the region’s wealth or urbanization, though many factors play a role.

Many people have been (46) ______about the illiteracy in the world population, despite the fact that literacy rates have increased steadily over the past few decades, especially in the third world. Some countries, such as China, Cuba and Vietnam have experienced the most dramatic growth of literacy and are (47) ______Canadian and European rates. The United Nations (48)______illiteracy as the inability to read and write a simple sentence in any language. Figures of 1998 showed that 20% of the world population is illiterate. Being literate is related to wealth. The higher a person's level of literacy, the higher their potential earnings. The conditions of (49) ______and literacy are highly correlated, but it is important not to conflate literacy with wealth. Increases in literacy do not necessarily cause increases in wealth, (50) ______ does greater wealth necessarily improve literacy.
