Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of communicating without using speech. Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in every known culture. The basic function of signal is to impinge upon the environment in such a way that it attracts attention, as. For example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit. Coded to refer to speech, the potential for communication is very great. Less adaptable to the codification of words, signs also contain meaning in and of themselves. A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently. Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their intricate relationship with the receiver’s cultural perceptions. In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers with an auditory symbol of approval. Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain cultural messages. Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage. They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver. As a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods are based upon speech. Radio, television, and the telephone are only a few. Question 50: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Gestures B. Signs and signals C. Speech D. Communication Question 51: What does the author say about speech? A. It is dependent upon the advances made by inventors. B. It is the most advanced form of communication. C. It is necessary for communication to occur. D. It is the only true form of communication. Question 52: According to the passage, what is a signal? A. A form of communication that interrupts the environment. B. The most difficult form of communication to describe C. A form of communication which may be used across long distances. D. The form of communication most related to cultural perception. Question 53: The phrase “ impinge upon” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____________. A. prohibit B. intrude C. vary D. improve Question 54: The word “it” in paragraph refers to _______________. A. way B. environment C. function D. signal Question 55: The word “ potential” in paragraph 1 could be replaced by ______________. A. advanced B. possibility C. organization D. signal Question 56: The word “intricate” in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by ________ A. inefficient B. complicated C. historical D. uncertain Question 57: Applauding was cited as an example of ______________. A. a signal B. a sign C. a gesture D. a symbol Question 58: Why were the telephone, radio, and television invented? A. Because people were unable to understand signs, signals, and symbols. B. Because people wanted to communicate across long distances. C. Because people believed that signs, signals, and symbols were obsolete. D. Because people wanted new forms of communication. Question 59: It may be concluded from this passage that___________. A. only some cultures have signs, signals, and symbols B. signs, signals, symbols, and gestures are forms of communication C. symbols are very easy to define and interrupt D. waving and handshaking are not related to culture 3 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 following questions from 60 to 64. Dinosaurs were reptiles that lived during a period of earth’s history called the Mesozoic Era, which is known as the Age of Reptiles. The first dinosaurs appeared more than 200 million years ago. For many millions of years, they dominated the land with their huge size and strength. Then about 65 million years ago, they died out rather suddenly, never to reemerge. The word dinosaur comes from two Greek words meaning “terrible lizard”. Dinosaurs were not lizards, but their appearance could be truly terrifying. The biggest ones weighed more than ten times as much as a mature elephant and nearly equaled the size of most modern—day whales. The famous kinds of dinosaurs, including the brontosaur and tyrannosaurus rex, reached 80 to 90 feet in length. Not all dinosaurs were giants, however, some were actually no larger than a chicken. Scientists still do not know what caused dinosaur to disappear. One theory involves a change in the earth’s climate. It is believed that temperature dropped significantly towards the end of the Cretaceous Period. Too large to hibernate and not having fur or feathers for protection, it is possible that the climate became too chilly for dinosaurs. In contrast, other species having protection, such as the mammals and birds, were able to survive. Question 60: What is the best title for this passage? A. The Domination of the Land B. The Metabolism of Dinosaurs C. Earth’s Largest Reptiles D. The History of Earth Question 61: It can be inferred from the passage that the Age of Reptiles lasted about A. 200 million years B. 135 million years C. 80 million years D. 65 million years Question 62 : The author uses the phrase “never to reemerge” to indicate that the dinosaurs A. became extinct B. went into hiding C. never died out D. lost their way Question 63: According to the passage, what is true about the size of dinosaurs? A. It made them the largest creatures ever on earth. B. It varied quite greatly. C. It guaranteed their survival. D. It was rather uniform. Question 64: Which of the following can be inferred about mammals and birds. A. Most have either fur or feathers over their bodies. B. They preceded the dinosaurs. C. They were too large to hibernate. D. They could not survive the chilly temperatures. II. PHẦN TỰ LUẬN ( 2 điểm) A.

Animals have an intuitive awareness of quantities. They know without analysis the difference between a number of objects and a smaller number. In his book “ The Natural History of Selboure ” (1786), the naturalist Gilbert White tells how he surreptitiously removed one egg a day from a plover’s nest , and how the mother laid another egg each day to make up for the missing one. He noted that other species of birds ignore the absence of a single egg but abandon their nests if more than one egg has been removed. It has also been noted by naturalists that a certain type of wasp always provides five – never four, never six - caterpillars for each of their eggs so that their young have something to eat when the eggs hatch. Research has also shown that both mice and pigeons can be taught to distinguish between odd and even numbers of food pieces. These and similar accounts have led some people to infer that creatures other than humans can actually count. They also point to dogs that have been taught to respond to numerical questions with the correct number of barks, or to horses that seem to solve arithmetic problems by stomping their hooves the proper number of times. Animals respond to quantities only when they are connected to survival as a species – as in the case of the eggs – or survival as individuals - as in the case of food. There is no transfer to other situations or from concrete reality to the abstract notion of numbers. Animals can “count” only when the objects are present and only when the numbers involved are small – not more than seven or eight. In lab experiments, animals trained to “count” one kind of object were unable to count any other type. The objects, not the numbers, are what interest them. Animals admittedly remarkable achievements simply do not amount to evidence of counting, nor do they reveal more than innate instincts, refined by the genes of successive generations, or the results of clever, careful conditioning by trainers. Question 36: The word “they” refer to______. A. numbers B. animals C. achievements D. genes Question 37: The word “odd” refers to which of the following? A. Numbers such as 1, 3, 5 and so on. B. Unusual numbers. C. Lucky numbers. D. Numbers such as 2, 4, 6 and so on. Question 38: The word “accounts” is closest in meaning to ______. 7 A. reasons B. deceptions C. invoices D. reports Question 39: According to information in the passage, which of the following is LEAST likely to occur as a result of animals’ intuitive awareness of quantities? A. When asked by its trainer how old it is, a monkey holds up five fingers. B. A lion follows one antelope instead of the herd of antelopes because it is easier to hunt a single prey. C. When one of its four kittens crawls away, a mother cat misses it and searches for the kitten. D. A pigeon is more attracted by a box containing two pieces of food than by a box containing one piece. Question 40: The word “surreptitiously” is closest in meaning to ______. A. stubbornly B. secretly C. quickly D. occasionally Question 41: What is the main idea of this passage? A. Of all animals, dogs and horses can count best. B. Careful training is required to teach animals to perform tricks involving numbers Khóa học LTĐH KIT-2: Môn Tiếng Anh (Cô Nguyễn Ngọc Anh) Đề số 05 Hocmai.vn – Ngôi trường chung của học trò Việt Tổng đài tư vấn: 1900 58-58-12 - Trang | 4 - C. Although animals may be aware of quantities, they cannot actually count. D. Animals cannot “count” more than one kind of object. Question 42: Where in the passage does the author mention research that supports his own view of animals’ inability to count? A. “In his book …… the missing one.” B. “In lab experiments…….other type” C. “Research has shown that …… food pieces.” D. “These and similar accounts … count.” Question 43: Why does the author refer to Gilbert White’s book in line 2? A. To contradict the idea that animals can count. B. To provide evidence that some birds are aware of quantities. C. To show how attitudes have changed since1786. D. To indicate that more research is needed in this field. Question 44: How would the author probably characterize the people who are mentioned in the first line of the second paragraph? A. As mistaken B. As demanding C. As clever D. As foolish Question 45: The author mentions that all of the following are aware of quantities in some ways EXCEPT _____.

PART VIII: 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 66 to 75. 9 The Roman alphabet took thousands of years to develop, from the picture writing of the ancient Egyptians through modifications by Phoenicians, Greek, Romans, and others. Yet in just a dozen years, one man, Sequoyah, invented an alphabet for the Cherokee people. Born in eastern Tennessee, Sequoyah was a hunter and a silversmith in his youth, as well as an able interpreter who knew Spanish, French and English. Sequoyah wanted his people to have the secret of the “talking leaves” as he called his books of white people, and so he set out to design a written form of Cherokee. His chief aim was to record his people’s ancient tribal customs. He began by designing pictographs for every word in the Cherokee vocabulary. Reputedly his wife, angry with him for his neglect of garden and house, burned his notes, and he had to start over. This time, having concluded that picture-writing was cumbersome, he made symbols for the sounds of Cherokee language. Eventually he refined his system to eighty-five characters, which he borrowed from the Roman, Greek, and Hebrew alphabets. He presented this system to the Cherokee General Council in 1821, and it was wholeheartedly approved. The response was phenomenal. Cherokees who had struggled for months to learn English lettering school picked up the new system in days. Several books were printed in Cherokee, and in 1828, a newspaper, the Cherokee Phoenix, was first published in the new alphabet. Sequoyah was acclaimed by his people. In his later life, Sequoyah dedicated himself to the general advancement of his people. He went to Washington, D.C., as a representative of the Western tribes. He helped settled bitter differences among Cherokee after their forced movement by the federal government to the Oklahoma territory in the 1930s. He died in Mexico in 1843 while searching for groups of lost Cherokee. A statue of Sequoyah represents Oklahoma in the Statuary Hall in the Capitol building of Washington. D.C. However, he is probably chiefly remembered today because Sequoias, the giant redwood trees of California, are named of him. Question 66: The passage is mainly concerned with______. A.
