The clouds floating overhead contain water vapour and cloud droplets, which are small drops ofcondensed water These droplets are way too small to fall as precipitation, but they are large enough
to form visible clouds Water is continually evaporating and condensing in the sky If you look closely
at a cloud you can see some parts disappearing (evaporating) while other parts are growing(condensation) Most of the condensed water in clouds does not fall as precipitation because their fallspeed is not large enough to overcome updrafts which support the clouds
For precipitation to happen, first tiny water droplets must condense on even tinier dust, salt, or
smoke particles, which act as a nucleus Water droplets may grow as a result of additional
condensation of water vapour when the particles collide If enough collisions occur to produce a
droplet with a fall velocity which exceeds the cloud updraft speed, then it will fall out of the cloud as
precipitation This is not a trivial task since millions of cloud droplets are required to produce a singleraindrop A more efficient mechanism for producing a precipitation-sized drop is through a processwhich leads to the rapid growth of ice crystals at the expense of the water vapour present in a cloud.These crystals may fall as snow, or melt and fall as rain

If you’re an Australian Facebook user who loves to share the news on your timeline, you mayhave noticed something different recently: You can’t
In the next few days, though, things should go back to normal Less than a week after suddenlybanning news links for Australian users and shutting down Australian news pages to protest anupcoming law, Facebook says it’s gotten reassurances from the Australian government that it won’t
be forced to pay publishers but will instead be given the chance to negotiate agreements with them —
which it’s already starting to do According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Facebook has agreed to
pay the major Australian media company Seven West Media for news content and is in negotiations
with another called Nine Entertainment
Australia has now passed the News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code,
which could force Facebook and Google to pay publishers if they host their content The law is a
response to years-long complaints from news outlets around the world about the role that Google andFacebook — and their mammoth digital ad businesses — have played in the decline of journalism andthe decimation of its business model in the internet age The two companies responded to the then-

Trang 24Gender stereotypes are rigid ideas about how boys and girls should behave We all know whatthese stereotypes are: A “feminine” girl should be insecure, accommodating and a little illogical in herthinking A “masculine” boy should be strong, unemotional, aggressive, and competitive How arechildren exposed to these stereotypes? According to the researchers David and Myra Sadker of theAmerican University of Washington, D.C., boys and girls are often treated differently in the
classroom They found out that when boys speak, teachers usually offer constructive comments, when
girls speech, teachers tend to focus on the behavior
The emphasis on differences begins at birth and continues throughout childhood For example,few people would give pink baby clothes to a boy or a blue blanket to a girl Later, many of us givegirls dolls and miniature kitchenware, while boys receive action figures and construction sets There’s
nothing wrong with that The problem arises when certain activities are deemed appropriate for one
sex but not the other According to Heather J Nicholson, Ph.D., director of the National ResourceCenter for Girls, Inc., this kind of practice prevents boys and girls from acquiring important skills fortheir future lives
“The fact is,” says Nicholson, “that society functions as a kind of sorting machine regardinggender In a recent survey, 58% of eighth-grade girls but only 6% of boys earned money caring foryounger children On the other hand, 27% of boys but only 3% of girls earned money doing lawnwork” If we are serious about educating a generation to be good workers and parents, we need toeliminate such stereotypes as those mentioned previously
Gender stereotypes inevitably are passed to our children However, by becoming aware of themessages our children receive, we can help them develop ways to overcome these incorrect ideas To
counteract these ideas, parents can look for ways to challenge and support their children, and
encourage confidence in ways that go beyond what society’s fixed ideas about differences of sext are

B girls are taught to be insecure, accommodating and illogical while boys are strong,
unemotional, aggressive, and competitive
C schoolboys and schoolgirls are treated equally in the classroom
D boys are commented usefully whereas girls are paid attention to behavior

Culture beliefs differ as to whether directness or indirectness is considered positive In the
mainstream American culture, the ideal (34) _ of communication includes being direct rather
than indirect (“ideal” here means that the culture values this style, although not everyone speaks
directly) There are several expressions in English (35) _ emphasize the importance of being
direct: “Get to the point! Don't beat around the bush! Let's get down to business!" These sayings allindicate the importance of dealing directly with issues rather than avoiding them One way todetermine whether a culture favours a direct or indirect style in communication is to find out how thepeople in that culture express disagreement or how they say “No” In Japan, there are at least fifteenways of saying "No", without actually saying the word Similarly, in some countries, there are
different ways to express disagreement (36) _, it would be considered rude to say directly “I
disagree with you!” or “You're wrong!"

Tribal tourism is a relatively new type of tourism It involves travelers going to remote (xa xôi)
destinations, staying with local people and learning about their culture and way of life They stay in
local accommodation, share facilities with local people, and join in with meals and celebrations At
the moment, less than one percent of holidays are tribal tourism holidays, but this is set to change Tribal tourism is often compared with foreign exchange visits However, a foreign exchangedinvolves staying with people who often share the same values Tribal tourism takes visitors to placeswhere the lifestyle is very different from that in their home location Those who have been on a tribalholiday explain that experiencing this lifestyle is the main attraction They say that it offers them thechance to live in a way they never have before
Not everyone is convinced that tribal tourism is a good thing, and opinions are divided The
argument is about whether or not it helps the local population, or whether it exploits them The mainproblem is that, because tribal tourism is relatively new, the long-term influences on local populationshave not been studied in much detail Where studies have been carried out, the effects have beenfound to be negative
So, is it possible to experience an exotic culture without harming it in some way? “With a bit ofthought, we can maximize the positive influences and minimize the negative,” says the company
director Hilary Waterhouse “The most important thing for a tribal tourist is to show respect for, learn
about, and be aware of, local customs and traditions Always remember you’re a guest.”

WHY WE NEED TO PROTECT POLAR BEARS?
Polar bears are being increasingly threatened by the effects of climate change, but their
disappearance could have (26) _ consequences They are uniquely adapted to the extreme conditions of the Arctic Circle, (27) _ temperatures can reach -40°C One reason for this is that they have up to 11 centimetres of fat underneath their skin Humans with comparative levels of adipose tissue would be considered obese and would be likely to suffer from diabetes and heart
disease (28) _ the polar bear experiences no such consequences
A 2014 study by Shi Ping Liu and colleagues sheds light on this mystery They compared the genetic structure of polar bears with (29) _ of their closest relatives from a warmer climate, thebrown bears This allowed them to determine the genes that have allowed polar bears to survive in one of the toughest environments on Earth Liu and his colleagues found the polar bears had a gene known as APOB, which reduces levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) - a form of 'bad'
cholesterol In humans, mutations of this gene are (30) _ with increased risk of heart disease Polar bears may therefore be an important study model to understand heart disease in humans

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 31 to 35.
When you wake up in the morning, do you assume that you're going to have a great day or that you're going to have a difficult day? If you normally have positive expectations, you might consider yourself an optimist, and if your expectations are usually negative, you may be a pessimist
According to research done by the Mayo Clinic, optimism can have a strong positive effect on your health Their research shows that optimists may live longer, get colds less often, and be less likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease Optimists may even deal with stress better than
pessimists do
If you think you might be a pessimist and would like to try to be more optimistic, pay attention towhat some call “self-talk.” The term “self-talk” refers to the automatic thoughts that go through your head all the time You know-the ideas, worries, beliefs, and hopes that run through your mind as you're driving, washing dishes, folding laundry Are those thoughts negative like, “Everyone knows
so much more than I do,” or positive like, “I'm learning a lot at this job”?
If your self-talk is negative, there are some things you can do to steer it in a more positive
direction First, you can simply stop your negative self-talk Every time you catch yourself thinking something negative, you can stop yourself by actually saying, “Stop,” out loud Alternatively, you canrevise your self-talk For example, if you catch yourself saying, “I’m terrible at giving presentations,” revise that to a question like, “How can I improve my presentation skills?” Another idea is to think of yourself as a friend When you “hear” a negative sentence go through your mind, think about whether
or not you would feel comfortable saying it to a friend If the sentence seems too mean to say to a
friend, think about what would sound better
(Adapted from Select Readings by Linda Lee and Jean Bernard)
Question 31 Which could be the best title for the passage?
A Are you an optimist or a pessimist? B Self-talk for health.
C Thinking negatively: Is it all bad? D Treat yourself better!
Question 32 According to paragraph 2, what is NOT a benefit to thinking positively?
A improved life expectancy B catch colds less frequently
C totally free from stress D less chance to contract serious diseases
Question 33 The word “steer” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _.
Question 34 The word “it” in paragraph 4 refers to _.
Question 35 Which of the following is true, according to the passage?
A Most people tend to engage in negative thoughts rather than positive ones.
B There is a direct correlation between optimism and health.
C Presentation skills are not as important as your optimistic thoughts.
D You can create conscious thoughts from your head all the time.
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 36 to 42.
One of my favorite movies is When Harry Met Sally I can watch it again and again and love it
every single time - maybe even more than I did before There’s a scene that will be familiar to any of the movie’s fans: Harry and Sally have just set off on their drive to New York City and Harry starts telling Sally about his dark side He mentions one thing in particular: whenever he starts a new book,
he reads the last page first That way, in case he dies while reading it, he’ll know how it ends.
Harry will know how it ends, true, but doesn’t that also ruin the book? If you know the ending,
how can you enjoy the story? As it turns out, easily A study in this month’s issue of Psychological Science comes to a surprising conclusion: spoilers don’t actually spoil anything In fact, they may
even serve to enhance the experience of reading
Trang 33Over 800 students from the University of California San Diego took part in a series of three experiments, where they read one of three types of short story: a story with an ironic twist (such as Roald Dahl), a mystery (such as Agatha Christie), and a literary story (such as Raymond Carver) For each story, there was a spoiler paragraph that revealed the outcome.
The students read the stories either with or without the spoiler Time to reconsider, it seems, what
we call a spoiler The so-called “spoiled” stories were actually rated as more enjoyable than those thatwere “unspoiled,” no matter what type of story was being read Knowing the ending, even when
suspense was part of the story’s goal, made the process of reading more, not less, pleasurable.
Why would this be the case? Perhaps, freed from following the plot, we can pay more attention tothe quality of the writing and to the subtleties of the story as a whole Perhaps we can be more
attuned to those signs that foreshadow the unfolding of the action and take pleasure in our ability to
identify them Whatever the case may be, it may not be as urgent as we think it is to avoid spoilers Indeed, it might be just fine to embrace them openly Harry might have the right idea after all In fact,
he might be getting at the very thing that lets me watch him meet Sally over and over and over again, and enjoy the process every single time
(Adapted from New English File Advanced by Christina Latham-Koenig, Clive Oxeden and Jerry Lambert)

A When spoiled, mystery stories were rated higher than literature stories.
B In a study, readers gained more enjoyment from being aware of the final outcome.
C The students in San Diego paid more attention to the writing when they knew the ending.

Câu 31 - 35
Trang 40Khi thức dậy vào buổi sáng, bạn cho rằng mình sẽ có một ngày tuyệt vời hay bạn sẽ có một ngày khó khăn? Nếu bạn thường có những kỳ vọng tích cực, bạn có thể coi mình là một người lạc quan, và nếu kỳ vọng của bạn thường là tiêu cực, bạn có thể là một người bi quan.
Theo nghiên cứu được thực hiện bởi Mayo Clinic, sự lạc quan có thể có tác động tích cực mạnh
mẽ đến sức khỏe của bạn Nghiên cứu của họ cho thấy những người lạc quan có thể sống lâu hơn, ít bịcảm lạnh hơn và ít mắc bệnh tim mạch hơn Những người lạc quan thậm chí có thể đối phó với căng thẳng tốt hơn những người bi quan
Nếu bạn nghĩ rằng bạn có thể là một người bi quan và muốn cố gắng lạc quan hơn, hãy chú ý đến điều mà một số người gọi là “tự nói chuyện” Thuật ngữ “tự nói chuyện” đề cập đến những suy nghĩ
