Our demand for water is constantly increasing. Every year there are more and more people in the world. Factories turn out more and more products and need more and more water. We live in a world of water. But almost all of it - about 97%-is in the oceans. This water is too salty to be used for drinking, farming, and manufacturing. Only about 3% of the world's water is fresh. Most of this water is not easily available to man because it is locked in glaciers and icecaps. There is as much water on earth today as there ever was or will ever be. Most of the water we use finds its way to the oceans. There, it is evaporated by the sun. It then falls back to the earth as rain. Water is used and reused over again. It is never used up. Although the world as a whole has plenty of fresh water, some regions have a water shortage. Rain does not fall evenly over the earth. Some regions are always too dry, and others too wet. A region that usually gets enough rain may suddenly have a serious dry spell and another region may be flooded with too much rain. 61. All of the following statements can be inferred from the text EXCEPT a. We need more and more water. b. The population of the world is increasing every year. c. Factories also need more water. d. Most of the world’s water is locked in glaciers and icecaps. 62. Which of the following is NOT true about the world’s water? a. The vast majority of the world’s water is ocean (or salty) water. b. Ocean water is salty enough to be used for drinking, farming, and manufacturing. c. Most fresh water is locked in glaciers and icecaps. d. The percentage of fresh water is very small. 63. What can be inferred about water? a. The amount of water on earth is always the same. b. Water will probably be exhausted. c. Water can be used once only. d. Most of the water we use is rain water. 64. It can be inferred from the text that ______ a. no region in the world suffers from a lack of fresh water. b. rain does not fall equally everywhere on earth. c. the world has plenty of fresh water in comparison with salty water. d. a region that usually gets enough rain hardly ever has a dry spell.

TOPIC: Write an essay to express you wish to work for an international organization, giving the reasons why you choose the organization. When still a little boy, I read an article about the World Health Organization (WHO), I realized that health is of the most important factor affecting one’s quality of life, and that helping to improve people’s health is a noble profession. Since then, I have harbored the dream to work for the Organization for a number of reasons as following. First, working for the World Health Organization (WHO) gives me opportunities to live abroad, to use English at work, and to have high salary. I am an active and dynamic person so I think it will be ĐỖ BÌNH – THPT LIỄN SƠN, LẬP THẠCH, VĨNH PHÚC – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 an interesting life to have chance to travel far and wide to meet different people of different personalities and nationalities. Second, I will be able to further my biology knowledge by doing numerous medical researches. I can also understand more about life mechanism, the reactions of the bodies to the changes of the surroundings. Of course, working for the World Health Organization (WHO) will offer me occasions to meet, to have talks with well-known people worldwide. As far as I can say, taking care of other people’s health is always a respectful job. Working as an official of the World Health Organization (WHO) helps me to be more aware of the value of life. Looking after the ones who struggle to survive will give me strength and hope, help me think more optimistically and do more positive things. Living is sacrificing. I for long have considered this proverb as one of my life approaches. I will try my best to realize my dream some day in the future. 1B 2D 3A 4C 5D 6D 7A 8C 9D 10C 11A 12C 13B 14B 15C 16B 17D 18C 19A 20C 21B 22A 23C 24D 25A 26C 27D 28B 29A 30C 31B 32A 33A 34C 35C 36D 37C 38A 39A 40A 41C 42C 43D 44D 45A 46A 47D 48B 49B 50B 51A 52B 53C 54D 55D 56C 57C 58D 59A 60A 61D 62B 63A 64B ĐỖ BÌNH – THPT LIỄN SƠN, LẬP THẠCH, VĨNH PHÚC – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 .
