A They prevent pandemics B They help control the population C They help the world grow quickly D They kill too many people 68 Based on the information in the passage the term pandemics can best be explained as A diseases with no cure C diseases that spread quickly and kill large numbers of people B a deadly kind of flu D new diseases like SARS or the Marburg virus 69 According to the passage, what causes pandemics? A Changes in a disease that the body cannot fight B Careless doctors who not watch the spread of diseases C Population growth that the world cannot support D The failure to make new medicines 70 According to the passage, all of the following are true of the 1918 flu pandemic EXCEPT that A it involved a new kind of flu virus B it killed over 25 million people C it was the last pandemic in history D it took a little over a week to kill its victims 71 The word it in the passage refers to A disease B flu virus C pandemics D bodies 72 Which of the following is mentioned as a common feature of all pandemic diseases? A They spread from people to people very slowly B They may kill many people very quickly C They not kill people very quickly D They kill all the victims 73 According to paragraph 3, why hasn't Marburg virus become a pandemic? A It is not a deadly disease B It does not spread from person to person easily C Doctors have prevented it from becoming a pandemic D It kills people too quickly 74 The word monitor in the passage is closest in meaning to A fight B prevent C watch D avoid 75 The author mentions SARS in order to A give an example of a highly dangerous disease B suggest that SARS will never become a pandemic C give an example of the successful prevention of a pandemic D suggest that there may be a new pandemic soon Part 3: Questions 76 – 85 (2.0 points- 0.2/ each) Read the text and think of one word which best fits each gap Mickey Mantle was one of (76) ……………….…… greatest baseball players of all times He played for the New York Yankees in their years of glory From the time Mantle began to (77) ……………….…… professionally in 1951 to his last year in 1968, baseball was the most popular (78) ……………….…… in the United States For many people, Mantle symbolized the hope, prosperity, and confidence of America at that time Mantle was a fast and powerful (79) ……………….…… who could bat both right-handed (80) ……………….…… left-handed He won game after game, one World Series championship (81) another, for his team He was a wonderful athlete, (82) this alone cannot explain America’s fascination with him Perhaps it was because he was a handsome, red-haired country boy, the son of a poor miner from Oklahoma His career, from the lead mines of the West to the heights of success and fame, was a fairy-tale version of the American dream Or perhaps it was because America always loves a “natural”: a person who wins without seeming to try, (83) .talent appears to come from an inner grace That was Mickey Mantle But (84) many celebrities, Mickey Mantle had a private life full of problems He played without complaint despite constant pain (85) ……………….…… injuries He lived to fulfil his father’s dreams and drank to forget his father’s early death Mickey Mantle died of cancer at the age of 63 SECTION IV WRITITNG (4 points) Part 1: Questions 86 – 95 (2 points- 0.2/ each) Finish each of the following sentences in such a way that it means the same as the sentence printed before it 86 I was not surprised to hear that Harry had failed his driving test  It came 87 The only reason the party was a success was that a famous film star attended  Had it not 88 “Shall I help you the dishes, Carlo?” said Robert  Robert offered 89 "That's a lovely new dress, Jean" said her mother  Jean's mother complemented 90 You may be disqualified if you don’t obey the regulations  Failure 91 “Nothing will persuade me to sleep in that haunted house,” she said  She flatly 92 She wore a hearing-aid, even though she could hear the phone ring perfectly well  She wasn’t so 93 “Why can’t you your work more carefully?” Helen’s boss said to her  Helen’s boss criticized 94 We couldn’t relax until all the guests had gone home  Only 95 Immediately after his appointment to the post, the new editor fell ill  No sooner Part 2: Questions 96 – 105 (2 points - 0.2/ each) Complete the second sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first sentence, using the word given Do not change the word given 96 People don’t want to buy cars with large engines any more (call)  There is .cars with large engines 97 You’d feel better if you had a quiet holiday (do)  A quiet holiday ……………………………………………………………… ….…… 98 The shop was closed for a week while they decorated it (done)  While it the shop was closed for a week 99 I should have concentrated more during the lesson (attention)  I now wish during the lesson 100 Sue got the builders to repair and decorate her house this summer (up)  Sue .by the builders this summer 101 We've postponed the lunch until next week (off)  The lunch until next week 102 The police think he invented the story (have)  He is .up the story 103 She is often driven to the supermarket by her neighbour (lift)  Her neighbour often to the supermarket 104 He is not sure whether to go or not (minds)  He is whether to go or not 105 I'm sure he didn't understand what I was saying to him (misunderstood)  He what I was saying to him Page SỞ GIÁO DỤC VÀ ĐÀO TẠO ĐỀ THI THỬ SỐ 48 KỲ THI CHỌN HSG LỚP CẤP TỈNH NĂM HỌC ………………………… Môn: Tiếng Anh Thời gian làm bài: 120 phút (không kể thời gian giao đề) SECTION I: LISTENING (3.0 points) Part 1: Questions from to (1.2 points -0.2/ each) Listen to the recording twice Choose the correct letter from A, B or C for each of the following questions What is the purpose of the talk?
