Trang 3Read the follwing passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
The rules of etiquette in American restaurants depend upon a number of factors the physical location of the restaurant, eg., rural or urban; the type of restaurant, eg., informal or formal; and certain standards that are more universal In other words, some standards of etiquette vary significantly while other standards apply almost anywhere Learning the proper etiquette in a particular type of restaurant in a particular area may
sometimes require instruction, but more commonly it simply requires sensitivity and experience For example,
while it is acceptable to read a magazine in a coffee shop, it is inappropriate to do the same in a more luxurious
setting And, if you are eating in a very rustic setting it may be fine to tuck your napkin into your shirt, but if you are in a sophisticated urban restaurant this behavior would demonstrate a lack of manners It is safe to say,
however, that in virtually every restaurant it is unacceptable to indiscriminately throw your food on the floor
The conclusion we can most likely draw from the above is that while the types and locations of restaurant
determine etiquette appropriate to them, some rules apply to all restaurant
Question 31: With what topic is this passage primarily concerned?
A Rules of etiquette B Instruction in proper etiquette
C The importance of good manners D Variable and universal standards of etiquette Question 32: According to the passage, which of the following is a universal rule of etiquette?
A Tucking a napkin in your shirt B Not throwing food on the floor.
C Reading a magazine while eating D Eating in rustic settings.
Question 33: What does the word “it” in line 5 refer to?
A learning the proper etiquette B clear instruction
C knowing the type of restaurant D sensitivity
Question 34: Which of the following words is most similar to the meaning of “rustic” in line 7?
Question 35: What is the author’s main purpose in this passage?
A To assist people in learning sophisticated manners
B To describe variations in restaurant manners
C To simplify rules of restaurant etiquette
D To compare sophisticated and rustic restaurants
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
More than 200 reindeer have died of starvation on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, with scientists blaming their deaths on climate change The wild deer carcasses were found on the Arctic islands this summer
by researchers from the Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI), which said it had never logged so many deaths at once
in 40 years of monitoring the animals’ population level “It’s scary to find so many dead animals,” project leader Ashild Onvik Pedersen told state broadcaster NRK “This is an example of how climate change affects nature It is just sad.”
Svalbard’s capital Longyearbyen, the northernmost town on earth, is thought to be warming quicker than any other settlement on the planet, climate scientists warned earlier this year The milder temperatures in the region led to unusually heavy rainfall in December, leaving a thick layer of ice when the precipitation froze This meant the reindeer could not dig through the hardened tundra to reach the vegetation they graze on in their usual
pastures, the NPI said Svalbard’s reindeer have been observed eating seaweed and kelp when food is scarce, but these are less nutritious and cause them stomach problems.
A relatively high number of calves born last year increased the death toll, as the youngest and weakest are often the first to die in harsh conditions “Some of the mortality is natural because there were so many calves last year But the large number we see now is due to heavy rain, which is due to global warming,” said Ms Onvik Pedersen
A team of three scientists spent 10 weeks investigating population of the Svalbard reindeer earlier this year Researchers warned the decline of reindeer would cause unwanted plant species, currently kept in check by the animals’ grazing, to spread across Arctic ecosystems in Europe, Asia and North America
Trang 4Arctic reindeer and caribou populations have declined 56 per cent in the last two decades, a report by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said last year The report said food security was partly to blame for falling herd numbers, while warmer summers could also put the animals at greater risk of diseases spread by flies and parasites The average temperature in Longyearbyen has risen by 3.7C since 1900, more than three times the global average increase of about 1C In 2016, the entrance to the town’s “Doomsday” seed vault – which stores specimens of almost all the world’s seeds – was flooded following heavy rainfall
