"The economic history of the United States", one scholar has written, "is the history of the rise and development of the capitalistic system". The colonists of the eighteenth century pushed forward what those of the seventeenth century have begun: the expansion and elaboration of an economy born in the great age of capitalist expansion. 3 Tuyển tập 100 đề thi thử TN và LTĐH môn Tiếng Anh năm 2015 (có keys) Our excellent natural resources paved the way for the development of abundant capital to increase our growth. Capital includes the tools – such as: machines, vehicles, and buildings – that makes the outputs of labor and resources more valuable. But it also includes the funds necessary to buy those tools. If a society had to consume everything it produced just to stay alive, nothing could be put aside to increase future productions. But if a farmer can grow more corn than his family needs to eat, he can use the surplus as seed to increase the next crop, or to feed workers who build tractors. This process of capital accumulation was aided in the American economy by our cultural heritage. Saving played an important role in the European tradition. It contributed to American’s motivation to put something aside today for the tools to buy tomorrow. The great bulk of the accumulated wealth of America, as distinguished from what was consumed, was derived either directly or indirectly from trade. Though some manufacturing existed, its role in the accumulation of capital was negligible. A merchant class of opulent proportions was already visible in the seaboard cities, its wealth as the obvious consequence of shrewd and resourceful management of the carrying trade. Even the rich planters of tidewater Virginia and the rice coast of South Carolina finally depended for their genteel way of life upon the ships and merchants who sold their tobacco and rice in the markets of Europe. As colonial production rose and trade expanded, a business community emerged in the colonies, linking the provinces by lines of trade and identity of interest. Question 51: With what subject is this passage mainly concerned? A. Geography B. Finance C. Economics D. Culture Question 52: The phrase "paved the way" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ____.

A. sent many tools to America B. taught their skills to their offspring C. were accustomed to saving D. were good farmers Question 54: The word "funds" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ____. A. money B. resource C. labour D. capital Question 55: According to the passage, which of the following would lead to accumulating capital? A. Training workers who produce goods. B. Studying the culture history of the country C. Consuming what is produced D. Planting more of a crop than what is needed Question 56: The word "it" in the third sentence of paragraph 2 refers to____. A. growth B. resource C. labour D. capital Question 57: According to the passage, capital includes all of the following EXCEPT____.

Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has driven egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs. These egg substitutes are not 4 Tuyển tập 100 đề thi thử TN và LTĐH môn Tiếng Anh năm 2015 (có keys) really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called ‘designer’ eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-flat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of their diet, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of the these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans. Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed result. It may be that it is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body’s production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one’s intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level. Question 61: What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce the idea that dietary at increases the blood cholesterol level B. To make people know about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol C. To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten D. To convince people to eat ‘designer’ eggs and egg substitutes. Question 62: According to the passage, which of the following is a cause of heart diseases? A. minerals B. cholesterol C. canola oil D. vitamins Question 63: What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs? A. increasing price B. decreased production C. dietary changes in hens D. concerns about cholesterol Question 64: What is meant by the phrase ‘mixed result’? A. The result are blended B. The result are a composite of things C. The result are inconclusive D. The result are mingled together Question 65: According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol? A. reducing egg intake but not fat intake B. increasing egg intake and fat intake C. decreasing egg intake and fat intake D. increasing egg intake but not fat intake Question 66: Which of the following could best replace the word ‘somewhat’? A. in fact B. a little C. indefinitely D. a lot Question 67: According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol? A. 3/4 B. 2/3 C. 1/2 D. 1/3 Question 68: The word ‘portrayed’ could best be replaced by which of the following? A. studied B. destroyed C. tested D. described Question 69: What is the meaning of ‘back up’? A. reverse B. advance C. block D. support Question 70: According to the passage, egg substitutes cannot be used to make any of the following types of eggs EXCEPT? A. boiled B. poached C. scrambled D. fried Part VIII: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the blanks 71 to 80.

Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting from nature's provision is the oldest known subsistence strategy and has been practised for at least the last two million years. It was, indeed, the only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced about 10,000 years ago. Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts and arctic wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant life. Such conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and waterways. The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environmental differences have restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies. Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know from the observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting and gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp. When the food in the area has become exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration patterns evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes. These patterns of behavior may be similar to those practised by mankind during the Paleolithic Period. Question 41.

A. they don't have a healthy and balanced diet B. they live in the forests for all their life C. they don't have a strong sense of community D. they often change their living places Question 42.
