A The strength of their oceanic currents B The strength of their large-scale winds C The height of cloud formation in the atmosphere D The amount of heat they receive from the Sun 36 The word "convert" is closest in meaning to _ A mix B adapt C change D reduce 37 According to the passage, 30 percent of the Sun's incoming energy A never leaves the upper atmosphere B gets stored as latent heat C is stored in clouds in the lower latitudes D is transported by ocean currents 38 The underlined word "it" in paragraph refers to A latent heat B the atmosphere C square meter D the Sun's energy 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 from 39 to 45 Being aware of one's own emotions - recognizing and acknowledging feelings as they happen - is at the very heart of Emotional Intelligence And this awareness encompasses not only moods but also thoughts about those moods People who are able to monitor their feelings as they arise are less likely to be ruled by them and are thus better able to manage their emotions Managing emotions does not mean suppressing them; or giving free rein to every feeling Psychologist Daniel Goleman, who has contributed to popularize the notion of Emotional Intelligence, insisted that the goal is balance and that every feeling has value and significance As Goleman said, "A life without passion would be a dull wasteland of neutrality, cut off and isolated from the richness of life itself." Thus, we manage our emotions by expressing them in an appropriate manner Emotions can also be managed by engaging in activities that cheer us up, soothe our hurts, or reassure us when we feel anxious Clearly, awareness and management of emotions are not independent For instance, you might think that individuals who seem to experience their feelings more intensely than others would be less able to manage them However, a critical component of awareness of emotions is the ability to assign meaning to them - to know why we are experiencing a particular feeling or mood Psychologists have found that, among individuals who experience intense emotions, individual differences in the ability to assign meaning to those feelings predict differences in the ability to manage them In other words, if two individuals are intensely angry, the one who is better able to understand why he or she is angry will also be better able to manage the anger Self-motivation refers to strong emotional self-control, which enables a person to get moving and pursue worthy goals, persist at tasks even when frustrated, and resist the temptation to act on impulse Resisting impulsive behavior is, according to Goleman, "the root of all emotional self-control." Of all the attributes of Emotional Intelligence, the ability to postpone immediate gratification and to persist in working toward some greater future gain is most closely related to success - whether one is trying to build a business, get a college degree, or even stay on a diet 39 Which of the following can we infer from paragraph 1? A People who can manage their emotions successfully will be controlled by them B If people pay attention to their feelings, they will not be able to manage them C If people pay attention to their feelings, they can control their emotions better D Some people can have much better understanding of their feelings than others 40 According to the passage, people should be aware of their emotions so that they can _ A manage their emotions appropriately B explain their emotions to others C stop feeling angry and overthinking D experience feelings more intensively 41 All of the followings are mentioned in paragraph about our emotions EXCEPT _ A emotions are part of a satisfying life B we should ignore some feelings C we can manage our emotions D every feeling is equally important 42 The word "critical" in paragraph is closest in meaning to A inessential B indecisive C dynamic D important 43 The word "them" in paragraph refers to _ A intense emotions B individuals C individual differences D psychologists 44 In paragraph 3, the author explains the concept of awareness and management of emotions by _ A giving an example of why people get angry B comparing how two people might respond to an intense emotion C explaining why some people are not aware of their emotions D describing how people learn to control their emotions 45 The word "pursue" in paragraph mostly means _ A find out about something B improve or develop something C try to achieve something D be involved in something Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that is closest in meaning to each of the following questions 46 You're not required to fill in this form A You mustn't fill in this form B You needn't fill in this form C You can't fill in this form D You shouldn't fill in this form 47 "I will apply for this position," Martin said A Martin said I won't apply for that position B Martin said I will apply for that position C Martin said he would apply for that position D Martin said he wouldn't apply for that position 48 Tim last attended a live concert three months ago A Tim has attended a live concert for three months B Tim has three months to attend a live concert C Tim hasn't attended a live concert for three months D Tim didn't attend a live concert three months ago Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that best combines each pair of sentences in the following questions 49 Jack dropped out of school at the age of 15 He now regrets it A If only Jack had dropped out of school when he was 15 B Jack regrets not having dropped out of school when he was 15 C Jack wishes he hadn't dropped out of school when he was 15 D If Jack dropped out of school when he was 15, he would regret it 50 They arrived at the market The announcement then started A No sooner had they arrived at the market than the announcement started B Having arrived at the market, the announcement then started C Hardly had they arrived at the market than the announcement started D Only after the announcement started did they arrive at the market ĐỀ THI THỬ TỐT NGHIỆP KÌ THI TỐT NGHIỆP TRUNG HỌC PHỔ THÔNG NĂM 2023 THPT 2023 Bài thi: NGOẠI NGỮ; Môn thi: TIẾNG ANH SỞ GIÁO DỤC VÀ ĐÀO TẠO Môn thi: TIẾNG ANH THÁI NGUYÊN Thời gian làm bài: 60 phút, không kể thời gian phát đề (Đề thi có 04 trang) HƯỚNG DẪN GIẢI CHI TIẾT Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that best completes each of the following exchanges Jean and Grace are talking about their livelihood -
