Trang 4Two years ago, our 14-year-old son, Ben, asked us for a set of drums for his birthday At first, we were very much against the idea because of the noise
‘It’s better than watching television or playing computer games in my free time,’ Ben argued, ‘and it’ll keep me out of trouble.’
In the end we gave in ‘All right,’ we said, ‘but you must consider the rest of the family and the neighbours when you play.’
That was just the beginning Because drums are not the easiest instruments
to transport, the other members of Ben’s band started appearing at our home with their guitars and other electrical equipment And so, for several hours a week, the house shakes to the noise of their instruments and their teenage singing
At least Ben’s hobby has been good for our health: whenever the band start practising, my husband and I go out for a long walk And I must admit that, although their music may sound a little strange, they are a friendly and politegroup of young men I cannot judge their musical skill - after all I didn’t
expect my parents’ generation to like the same music as I did when I was a teenager - but they do play regularly in local clubs for young people
Our main worry is that they won’t spend enough time on their school work because of their musical activities, though this hasn’t happened yet I am always stressing to Ben how important his studies are But one thing is
certain - Ben was right: it has kept him out of trouble and he is never bored
Why did the writer give Ben the present he wanted?
a She knew he would use it sensibly
b She wanted to reward him for working hard
c He already had too many computer games
d He persuaded her it would be a good idea

As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and Zuni Indians of North America were building with adobe — sun-baked brick
plastered with mud Their homes looked remarkably like modem apartment houses Some were four stories high and contained quarters for perhaps a thousand people, along with storerooms for grain and other goods These buildings were usually put up against cliffs, both to make construction easier and for defense against enemies They were really villages in themselves, as later Spanish explorers must have realized since they called them “pueblos,”which is Spanish for towns
Trang 7The people of the pueblos raised what are called “the three sisters” — corns, beans, and squash They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous
baskets, some so fine that they could hold water The Southwest has always been a dry country, where water is scarce The Hopi and Zuni brought water from streams to their fields and gardens through irrigation ditches Water was so important that it played a major role in their religion They developed elaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring rain
It can be inferred from the passage that the dwellings of the Hopi and Zuni were
Vì: Because the passage states that the buildings were “like modem
apartment houses” and that “some were four stories high ,” it can be
inferred that the dwellings were highly advanced

The painter Craigie Aitchison was born in Scotland He came to London
intending to study law, but went to art school instead There he found the traditional drawing classes difficult, but still kept on painting
In his late twenties he was given money by the Italian government to study art, and became interested in early Italian artists, which shows in some of hiswork He loved the greens and browns of the Italian fields and the clear light there, and wanted to put this light into his paintings
This led him to paint colours thinly one on top of another from light to dark, but he insists he's never sure what the results will be He says, 'It's a secret - because I don't know myself I don't start by painting yellow, knowing I'm going to put anything on top.' Like most talented people, Aitchison makes it sound easy 'Anyone can do the colours - you can buy them I simply notice what you put the colours next to.'
Unlike some artists, he never does drawings before he starts a painting, as
he feels that if he did, he might get bored and not do the painting
afterwards Instead, Aitchison changes his paintings many times before they are finished This explains why his favourite models are people who don't ask
to see their pictures while he's painting them 'If I feel they're worried and want to look at the painting, I can't do it.'
Since moving to London years ago, he has not felt part of the Scottish
painting scene He says he is not interested in following any tradition, but
Trang 12just paints the way he can However, his work still influences young British painters.
What can the reader learn about Aitchison from the text?
