I am going to be working on a video for another well known band - but that's top secret Next month I'll be touring Spain in a production of a musical that was written by a friend of mine, Michaela Evans 60 _ As for the future, I've come to realise that I would never be content to be just a chorus dancer - I'm too much of an individual for that Like all artists I'd love to become a household name by writing and choreographing my own musicals." John was born in Jamaica to a Jamaican father and a Scottish mother but the family emigrated to England 20 years ago "I have a little sister I adore, who is also training to be a dancer." How does it feel to have someone else following in your footsteps? 61 Has he much more to learn, I wondered "I've spent an incredible amount of my life training to get where I am I went to college for two years in England, I trained for six months in Paris and about eight months in America But you never really stop training or learning your art." 62 So, would you say it's been plain sailing? "I feel I've been lucky to a degree; many people hit problems breaking into the arts It can be a vicious circle really You can't become a member of Equity, which is the actors' and dancers' union, without good contracts and you can't get good contracts without being a member of Equity My advice to people who want to get into the arts would be to go out into the world, and try everything else first 63 What has a dance career done for you as a person? "Thanks to dancing, I've visited and performed in 23 countries so far This has opened my eyes to the world, and I've been able to understand issues like racism and inequality from a wider perspective 64 "So all in all I'm really happy to be a dancer!" A It's fine, but I try not to give out too much advice as it gets irritating! B And if nothing you like comes out of it, then come back and be an actor or dancer C Without a strict daily timetable like this you find yourself wasting too much time D After that it's back to England to start a new term of dance classes E Hopefully this has enabled me to become a better and more tolerant person as a result F When it comes to coping with stress, I find that exercise helps me to cope with my problems, so I stay in good shape mentally as well G Like any profession where you're always travelling, you tend to acquire something new almost every day H Being fully equipped with all this stuff beforehand makes it easier when you go for auditions Q65 →79 Choose the appropriate words to complete the following passage WHALES How far would you travel for a good meal?

three different opinions from leading scientists about the future of fuel For the questions below, choose from the writers A-C The writers may be chosen more than once A Howard Bloom, Author: Even though most people are convinced that peak oil has already passed, to me, peak oil is just a hypothesis There is a theory that carbon molecules can be found in interstellar gas clouds, comets and in space ice, and if this is the case, our planet could ooze oil for ever And even if we stay earthbound, those who say we have raped the planet of all its resources are wrong There's a huge stock of raw materials we haven't yet learned to use There are bacteria two miles beneath our feet which can turn solid granite into food If bacteria can it, surely we creatures with brains can it better As far as the near future of energy is concerned, I believe the most promising alternative fuels are biofuels, such as ethanol It's an alcohol made from waste products such as the bark of trees, woodchips, and other 'waste materials' And that's not the only waste that can create energy My friend in the biomass industry is perfecting an energy-generation plant which can run on human waste We produce that in vast quantities, and it's already gathered in centralised locations B Michael Lardelli, Lecturer in Genetics at The University of Adelaide: Nothing exists on this planet without energy It enables flowers and people to grow and we need it to mine minerals, extract oil or cut wood and then to process these into finished goods So the most fundamental definition of money is as a mechanism to allow the exchange and allocation of different forms of energy Recently, people have been using more energy than ever before Until 2005 it was possible to expand our energy use to meet this demand However, since 2005 oil supply has been in decline, and at the same time, and as a direct result of this, the world's economy has been unable to expand, leading to global recession With the world's energy and the profitability of energy production in decline at the same time, the net energy available to support activities other than energy procurement will decrease We could increase energy production by diverting a large proportion of our remaining oil energy into building nuclear power stations and investing in renewable forms of energy However, this is very unlikely to happen in democratic nations, because it would require huge, voluntary reductions in living standards Consequently, the world economy will continue to contract as oil production declines With energy in decline, it will be impossible for everyone in the world to become wealthier One person's increased wealth can only come at the expense of another person's worsened poverty C Jeroen van der Veer, chief executive of Royal Dutch Shell: People are understandably worried about a future of growing energy shortages, rising prices and international conflict for supplies These fears are not without foundation With continued economic growth, the world's energy needs could increase by 50% in the next 25 years However, I not believe that the world is running out of energy Fossil fuels will be able to meet growing demand for a long time in the future Taking unconventional resources into account, we are not even close to peak oil The priority for oil companies is to improve efficiency, by increasing the amount of oil recovered from reservoirs At present, just over a third is recovered We can also improve the technology to control reservoir processes and improve oil flow However, these projects are costly, complex and technically demanding, and they depend on experienced people, so it is essential to encourage young people to take up a technical career in the energy industry Meanwhile, alternative forms of energy need to be made economically viable International energy companies have the capability, the experience and the commercial drive to work towards solving the energy problem so they will play a key role But it is not as simple as merely making scientific advances and developing new tools; the challenge is to deliver the technology to people worldwide Companies will need to share knowledge and use their ideas effectively Which writer 80 believes oil will be available for many more years 81 believes that from now on, less oil is available 82 believes there are ways to obtain energy that we have not yet discovered 83 sees a great potential in natural fuels 84 believes the fuel crisis will cause the poor to become poorer 85 sees energy and the economy as intrinsically linked 86 believes that better technology can help to maintain oil production levels 87 thinks that oil companies are responsible for developing other types of energy Q 88→ 94 Complete the following sentences

tuyệt vời tự nhiên, bạn hiểu chúng truyền cảm hứng cho nhiều truyền thuyết Q80 →87 You are going to read three different opinions from leading scientists about the future of fuel For the questions below, choose from the writers A-C The writers may be chosen more than once A Howard Bloom, Author: Even though most people are convinced that peak oil has already passed, to me, peak oil is just a hypothesis There is a theory that carbon molecules can be found in interstellar gas clouds, comets and in space ice, and if this is the case, our planet could ooze oil for ever And even if we stay earthbound, those who say we have raped the planet of all its resources are wrong There's a huge stock of raw materials we haven't yet learned to use (82) There are bacteria two miles beneath our feet which can turn solid granite into food If bacteria can it, surely we creatures with brains can it better As far as the near future of energy is concerned, I believe the most promising alternative fuels are biofuels, such as ethanol (83) It's an alcohol made from waste products such as the bark of trees, woodchips, and other 'waste materials' And that's not the only waste that can create energy My friend in the biomass industry is perfecting an energy-generation plant which can run on human waste We produce that in vast quantities, and it's already gathered in centralised locations B Michael Lardelli, Lecturer in Genetics at The University of Adelaide: Nothing exists on this planet without energy It enables flowers and people to grow and we need it to mine minerals, extract oil or cut wood and then to process these into finished goods So the most fundamental definition of money is as a mechanism to allow the exchange and allocation of different forms of energy Recently, people have been using more energy than ever before Until 2005 it was possible to expand our energy use to meet this demand However, since 2005 oil supply has been in decline, and at the same time, and as a direct result of this, the world's economy has been unable to expand, leading to global recession (85) With the world's energy and the profitability of energy production in decline at the same time, the net energy available to support activities other than energy procurement will decrease We could increase energy production by diverting a large proportion of our remaining oil energy into building nuclear power stations and investing in renewable forms of energy However, this is very unlikely to happen in democratic nations, because it would require huge, voluntary reductions in living standards Consequently, the world economy will continue to contract as oil production declines (81) With energy in decline, it will be impossible for everyone in the world to become wealthier (84) One person's increased wealth can only come at the expense of another person's worsened poverty C Jeroen van der Veer, chief executive of Royal Dutch Shell: People are understandably worried about a future of growing energy shortages, rising prices and international conflict for supplies These fears are not without foundation With continued economic growth, the world's energy needs could increase by 50% in the next 25 years However, I not believe that the world is running out of energy Fossil fuels will be able to meet growing demand for a long time in the future (80) Taking unconventional resources into account, we are not even close to peak oil The priority for oil companies is to improve efficiency, by increasing the amount of oil recovered from reservoirs At present, just over a third is recovered We can also improve the technology to control reservoir processes and improve oil flow (86) However, these projects are costly, complex and technically demanding, and they depend on experienced people, so it is essential to encourage young people to take up a technical career in the energy industry Meanwhile, alternative forms of energy need to be made economically viable International energy companies have the capability, the experience and the commercial drive to work towards solving the energy problem so they will play a key role (87) But it is not as simple as merely making scientific advances and developing new tools; the challenge is to deliver the technology to people worldwide Companies will need to share knowledge and use their ideas effectively Which writer 80 believes oil will be available for many more years C 81 believes that from now on, less oil is available B 82 believes there are ways to obtain energy that we have not yet discovered A 83 sees a great potential in natural fuels A 84 believes the fuel crisis will cause the poor to become poorer B 85 sees energy and the economy as intrinsically linked B 86 believes that better technology can help to maintain oil production levels C 87 thinks that oil companies are responsible for developing other types of energy C Q 88→ 94 Complete the following sentences so that the second sentence

Question 21→30 Give the correct form of the words given - A Musical Genius For many people Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) is the most influential figure in the history of western classical music His (21 ORDINARY) extraordinary talent was already clearly evident as a young man, (22 MERCY) mercifully surviving a somewhat unconventional (23 BRING) upbringing during which his eccentric father would often force him to take music lessons in the middle of the night The young Beethoven's ability won him the admiration of the leading contemporary musical figures Throughout the 1790s he worked hard to secure the interest of wealthy patrons Such patronage (24 ABLE) enabled him to concentrate on becoming a successful composer Whatever his awe-inspiring musical (25 ACHIEVE) achievements, however, his personal life was something of a disaster His day-to-day (26 RELATE) relationships with people invariably turned out to be rather turbulent Although he apparently fell in love with a number of society women, the identity of the girl who lay closest to his heart remains (27 ELUDE) elusive to this day However, just at the point when Beethoven was beginning to reap the rewards of his early endeavours, he had to come to terms with the crushing (28 REALISE) realisation that his increasing deafness was (29 CURE) incurable From that point on, his music displayed a (30 STRIKE) striking change in style, becoming both heavier in tone and larger in scale Q31→35 Think of ONE word only which can be used appropriately in all THREE sentences 31 - You need to close all applications before shutting down your computer - Should the factory close down, 100 people will lose their jobs - Mike’s had three car accidents, plus a few other pretty close shaves A close shaves = a narrow escape 32 - It’s just a game to them They don’t care what happens - John gave the game away by laughing when Jim walked in Give the game away = inadvertently reveal something secret: làm lộ bí mật - We’ve been in this game for twenty years 33 - Susan is not the type to get annoyed - Open up the accounts database, and type in the amount of each order - Your hair type requires a specific shampoo 34 - We sat and talked by the light of the fire - They set out at first light for the summit First light = the time when the sun first appears in the morning - These discoveries may throw new light on the origins of man Cast/shed/throw light on sth = provides an explanation for it or information that makes it easier to understand: 35 - Could you me a favour and hold the door open while I bring in the shopping? - All those in favour of the proposal please raise your hand In favour = to be replaced by / in support or to the advantage of - After being out of fashion for years the painter is now in favour with the critics In favour with = approve Q 36 → 40 Choose the word in each group that has different stress pattern 36 A graduate B impression C applicant D category 37 A beautify B geology C photograph D enemy 38 A classify B humidify C personify D solidify 39 A academic B fantastic C terrific D historic 40 A sacrifice B compliment C nursery D determine Q 41→45 Choose one word whose underlined part is pronounced differently from the rest 41 A brown B down C now D shown 42 A stagnant B expand C eventually D landlord 43 A compete B fetch C separate D yell 44 A minute B muddy C funny D number 45 A died B continued C contented D followed Q46 →57 Fill in each blank with one suitable word Too Good to be True Some say you can it in seven days, others promise success in 24 hours, or you may prefer to take your time and it in weeks What are we talking about? Believe it (46) or not, these periods (47) of time refer to language learning courses that promise excellent results in less time (48) than it takes to say 'Bonjour'! However, the advertisements of these companies are not necessarily (49) the best guide and if you don't know what to look for in a good course you could be left with little (50) than than a large bill A complaint was recently made to a consumer rights group (51) against WhizzLearn Systems, a language school chain, and the company has been forced to remove its claim that its technique is ten times better than any (52) other method The Managing Director of WhizLearn Systems said “(53) although we still believe our claim is true, we are willing to change our advert But the fact remains, if you spend hours (54) per day for weeks on our language course you will soon be speaking the language What we (55) could have done was to make (56) it clearer in the advert Then we wouldn't (57) have had these annoying complaints" Q58→64 Choose the most suitable sentence from the list A-H for each part (58-64) of the article There is one extra sentence which you not need to use Career success in the arts John Prince, famous dancer and choreographer, gives advice on how to succeed in a career in the arts I asked John how he got started and what requirements there are "Well, to be a professional dancer it's useful to have had acting lessons or some background in drama If you want to succeed in musical theatre you have to have a good singing voice as well When you approach an agent you should take a portfolio with your CV, your statistics sheet and some good photos and reviews of past performances You'll need dance clothes, ballet shoes, tap shoes, and even roller skates depending on what kind of show you are going to go for." 58 H "Of course, you need to be extremely fit if you want to be a professional dancer I dance or move about for about six hours a day There are great health benefits to being a dancer I can eat a lot of pasta without gaining weight because dancing increases your metabolism so much." 59 F John has a very busy schedule in the next few months He took time out to speak to me today from the making of a pop video to promote N-ergy's latest record "I choreographed the dance routine for the boys and they only had days in which to learn it! I am going to be working on a video for another well known band - but that's top secret Next month I'll be touring Spain in a production of a musical that was written by a friend of mine, Michaela Evans 60 D As for the future, I've come to realise that I would never be content to be just a chorus dancer - I'm too much of an individual for that Like all artists I'd love to become a household name by writing and choreographing my own musicals." John was born in Jamaica to a Jamaican father and a Scottish mother but the family emigrated to England 20 years ago "I have a little sister I adore, who is also training to be a dancer." How does it feel to have someone else following in your footsteps? 61 A Has he much more to learn, I wondered "I've spent an incredible amount of my life training to get where I am I went to college for two years in England, I trained for six months in Paris and about eight months in America But you never really stop training or learning your art." 62 G So, would you say it's been plain sailing? "I feel I've been lucky to a degree; many people hit problems breaking into the arts It can be a vicious circle really You can't become a member of Equity, which is the actors' and dancers' union, without good contracts and you can't get good contracts without being a member of Equity My advice to people who want to get into the arts would be to go out into the world, and try everything else first 63 B What has a dance career done for you as a person? "Thanks to dancing, I've visited and performed in 23 countries so far This has opened my eyes to the world, and I've been able to understand issues like racism and inequality from a wider perspective 64 E "So all in all I'm really happy to be a dancer!" A It's fine, but I try not to give out too much advice as it gets irritating! B And if nothing you like comes out of it, then come back and be an actor or dancer C Without a strict daily timetable like this you find yourself wasting too much time D After that it's back to England to start a new term of dance classes E Hopefully this has enabled me to become a better and more tolerant person as a result F When it comes to coping with stress, I find that exercise helps me to cope with my problems, so I stay in good shape mentally as well G Like any profession where you're always travelling, you tend to acquire something new almost every day H Being fully equipped with all this stuff beforehand makes it easier when you go for auditions Q65 →79 Choose the appropriate words to complete the following passage WHALES How far would you travel for a good meal?
