Cities develop as a result of functions that they can perform Some functions result directly

from the ingenuity of the citizenry, but most functions result from the needs of the local area and

of the surrounding hinterland (the region that supplies goods to the city and to which the city furnishes services and other goods) Geographers often make a distinction between the situation and the site of a city Situation refers to the general position in relation to the surrounding region, whereas site involves physical characteristics of the specific location Situation is normally much more important to the continuing prosperity of a city If a city is well situated in regard to its hinterland, its development is continuing prosperity of a city If a city is well situated in regard to its hinterland, its development is much more likely to continue Chicago, for example, possesses

an almost unparalleled situation: it is located at the southern end of a huge lake that forces west transportation lines to be compressed into its vicinity, and at a meeting of significant land and water transport routes It also overlooks what is one of the world's finest large farming regions These factors ensured that Chicago would become a great city regardless of the disadvantageous characteristics of the available site, such as being prone to flooding during thunderstorm activity Similarly, it can be argued that much of New York City's importance stems from its early and continuing advantage of situation Philadelphia and Boston both originated at about the same time

east-as New York and shared New York's location at the western end of one of the world's most important oceanic trade routes, but only New York possesses an easy-access functional connection (the Hudson Mohawk Lowland) to the vast Midwestern Hinterland This account does not alone explain New York's primacy, but it does include several important factors Among the many aspects of situation that help to explain why some cities grow and others do not, original location

on a navigable waterway seems particularly applicable Of course, such characteristics as slope,

drainage, power resources, river crossings, coastal shapes, and other physical characteristics help

to determine city location, but such factors are normally more significant in early stages of city development than later

to the city's

A long-term growth and prosperity B ability to protect its citizenry

C possession of favorable weather conditions D need to import food supplies

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

What is commonly called pepper in reality comes from two very different families of plants

Black and white pepper both come from the fruit of the Piper nigrum, a vine with fruits called

peppercorns The peppercorns turn from green to red as they ripen and finally blacken as they

dry out The dried-out peppercorns are ground to obtain black pepper White pepper, which has a more subtle flavour than black pepper, comes from the same peppercorns as black pepper To

obtain white pepper, the outer hull of the peppercorn, the pericarp, is removed before the

peppercorn is ground Red and green pepper, on the other hand, come from a completely

different family from black and white pepper Red and green peppers are from the genus

Capsicum Plants of this type generally have tiny white flowers and fruit which can be any of a

number of colours, shapes and sizes These peppers range in flavour from very mild and sweet to the most incredibly burning taste imaginable Bell peppers are the mildest, while habanros are the most burning

Christopher Columbus is responsible for the present-day confusion over what pepper is The

Piper nigrum variety of pepper was highly valued for centuries, and high demand for pepper by

Europeans was a major cause of the fifteen-century push to locate ocean routes to the

spice-growing regions of Asia When Columbus arrived in the New World in 1492, he was particularly interested in finding black pepper because of the high price it would command in Europe

Columbus came across plants from the Capsicum family in use among people of the New World,

and he incorrectly identified them as relatives of black pepper Columbus introduced the spicy

Capsicum chili peppers to Europeans on his return from the 1492 voyage, and traders later spread them to Asia and Africa These Capsicum peppers have continued to be called peppers in spite of the fact that they are not related to the black and white pepper of the Piper nigrum family

A Europeans B people C plants D relatives

Câu 31 (TH): The word “turn” could best be replaced by

Câu 32 (TH): What part of the Piper nigrum is the pericarp?

Teenage fiction

Teenagers have their own TV channels, websites and magazines So what about books?

Last year one publisher, Martins, started publishing a series called Waves We spoke to the

director Julia Smith She explained, “Teenage fiction has been published since the 1970s but

publishers have never been particularly successful in getting teenagers to buy and read books

Now they’re realizing that teenagers aren’t just older children but they’re not adults either and

often aren’t interested in adult fiction For this series we’re looking for new writers who write

especially for teenagers.”

Athene Gorr’s novel was published in the series last year and is selling well Its title is The

Purple Ring She says, “The important thing is to persuade teenagers to pick up your book I’m a new writer so, although I’ve got an unusual name which people might remember, nobody knows

it yet! But my book has a fantastic cover which makes people want to look inside Then they

realize what a brilliant story it is!”

And what do teenagers themselves think about the series? We talked to Sophie Clarke, aged

15 She said, “I’ve read a few books in the Waves series They say they’re for 14-19 year olds

and I agree with that We’re not interested in the same things as people in their twenties and

thirties I like them and I think they look really good too The only thing is that because

bookshops put them in the children’s section, lots of teenagers won’t find them so they may not

do very well And it’s a shame there’s no non-fiction in the series as I think lots of teenagers,

especially boys, might buy that.”

Câu 38 (TH): What does Sophie Clarke say about the books in the Waves series?

A She isn’t keen on the design B She would prefer to read adult fiction

Câu 41 (VD): Which of these paragraphs could be used to advertise the Waves series?

A “If you’re aged between 14 and 19, don’t miss the Waves series which has novels by new

authors.”

B “Choose a book from the Waves series It includes both fiction and non-fiction and is aimed

at teenagers aged 14+.”

C “This series is for all teenagers and those who are nearly teenagers Whether you’re 10 or

19, you’ll find something here to please you.”

D “The Waves series has been popular with teenagers since the 1970s This year we have

added 20 new writers to our list.”

Korea's recent unveiling of the world's first cloned dog was welcomed by King Chow, assistant

professor of biotechnology at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, but he also warned that we need to be on guard against possible reproductive cloning Professor Chow went

on to explain that, “The development of the technology is a good thing in itself but how we monitor

it and who we allow to use it will be of great importance”

Professor Chow is one of many academics who feel that a clear line must be drawn between reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning Therapeutic cloning involves the use of embryonic stem cells to develop human cells or organs that can be used to cure diseases such as Parkinson's and diabetes People in wheelchairs may be able to walk again thanks to this technology as scientists believe that they can clone new cells to repair back and neck injuries

Reproductive cloning involves implanting a cloned embryo into a uterus in the hope of producing

a healthy foetus A company called Clonaid claims to have successfully cloned thirteen human babies They say that all of the babies are healthy and are in various locations, including Hong Kong, UK, Spain and Brazil Clonaid states that they are using human cloning to assist infertile couples, homosexual couples and families who have lost a beloved relative

The same technology can be used for animal cloning If endangered species such as the giant panda and Sumatran tiger could be cloned, they could be saved from extinction Livestock such as cows could also be cloned to allow farmers to reproduce cattle that produce the best meat and most milk This could greatly help developing countries where cows produce significantly less meat and milk
