Question 1 Read the text below and decide which answer A, B, C, or D best fits each space Write your answer in the numbered box below (0) has been done as an example.
HOW WE READ
Why did you decide to read this, and will you keep reading to the end? Do you expect to
understand every (0) _ part of it and will you remember anything about it in a fortnight’s
(1) _? Common sense suggests that the answers to these questions depend on “readability” -
whether the (2) _ matter is interesting, the argument clear and the (3) _ attractive But psychologists are discovering that to (4) _ why people read - and often don’t read - technical
information, they have to examine not so much the writing as the reader
Even the most technically confident people often (5) _ instructions for the video or home computer in favor of hands-on experience And people frequently (6) _ little notice of
consumer information, whether on nutritional labels or in the small print of contracts
Psychologists researching reading tend to assume that both beginners and (7) _ readers read everything put in front of them from start to finish There are (8) _ among them about the role of eyes, memory and brain during the process Some believe that fluent readers take (9) _ every letter or word they see; others (10) _ that readers rely on memory or context to carry
them from one phrase to another But they have always assumed that the reading process is the same: reading starts, comprehension occurs, then reading stops
Trang 64 A ensure B determine C value D rate
Write your answers here You can write only the letter A, B, C or D.

G or make a phone call
H where you can see

(0) _ – you simply use the Internet More and more shops are connecting to the Internet (1) _
what you would like to buy on your screen in your own living room I’m not suggesting you should get
onto the Internet simply to be able to shop However, (2) _ , study, or other reasons, you might find
it useful Just imagine, no more driving in traffic, no more trying to find a place to park, no more queuing
in shops Now you can buy everything from a new garden seat to a gold ring (3) _.
Of course there are disadvantages If you live on your own, especially if you don’t work or perhaps don’t
leave the house much, (4) _ Also, if you don’t actually go to the shop, you can’t try to get another
10% off the price! Another problem could be if you are buying clothes – you may need to return some
things if they don’t fit properly or if the color looks different (5) _
However, (6) _, time is what we haven’t got enough of Shopping on the Internet is probably not
less expensive but it is simple, good fun and above all, it’s quick!
Write your answers here You can write only the letter A, B, C, D, E, F, G or H.
Question 3 Read the text below and think of the word which best fits each space Use only ONE word in each space Write your answer in the numbered box below 0 is an example.

Trang 7much (3) _ interested in how people spend this extra leisure time One recent report stated that, (4) _ the number of hobbies had not increased, each hobby (5) _ become much more
specialized
A second finding is that nowadays, many managers would (6) _ spend time with their families (7) _ stay late in the office every day Home life is seen to be just as important
(8) _ working Some companies now (9) _ managers take their annual holidays even if
they don’t want to, because this leads to (10) _ an improvement in their performance if they
have some rest
In (11) _ of these changes, some people are working harder than ever before The standard of exams is getting higher, and increased competition is (12) _ it harder to get into university than it was 20 years (13) _ Schoolchildren and students are now having to work
