From the moment they leave the security of their accustomed environment, travelers are at risk. (46 Hazards-hiểm hoạ) arise not just from strange diseases they meet on their travels but from other factors too: seemingly uninspiring home (47- comforts) such as safe water (48 supplies), sanitation and public hygiene controls, legal safety standards for motor vehicles and road (49 maintenance), are easily taken for granted (dễ dàng chấp nhận), but simply do not exist in many countries. Environmental factors such as arduous (khó khăn) conditions, (50 adverse) climate, and high altitude may constitute a danger; and so may travelers’ own behavior, free from the restraints-kiềm chế of the daily routine, and determined to have a good time with scant(adj-hiếm)(51- regard) for the consequences. When illness or injury occur abroad, travelers are again at a disadvantage – from (52 inability) to communicate with a doctor on account of language or cultural difficulties, or being unable to find a doctor owing to ignorance of the local medical system. There may be a complete absence of skilled medical care, or of medical facilities of a (53- standard) acceptable to travelers from technologically sophisticated countries. When symptoms of an illness acquired abroad do not appear until after return home a final hazard becomes apparent: the symptoms may be unfamiliar, may pass (54- unrecognized), and the correct diagnosis may not be considered until it is too late. 46. A. Questions B. Changes C. Hazards D. Complications 47. A. comforts B. helps C. cares D. aids 48. A. stores B. collection C. levels D. supplies 49.

Lahic is a small village high in the Caucasus Mountains in eastern Europe. The winters in Lahic are harsh (khắc nghiệt). Every year, the villagers live through nine months of snow, rain, and freezing cold. The land around the village is steep and rocky. Farming is impossible, but the mountains are rich in copper. All the food for Lahic has to be brought in from the outside. But the village is famous for its coppersmiths (thợ đúc đồng). Villagers have been working with copper for many centuries. And today’s villagers practice the craft in the same way as their ancestors did. They work with great patience and simple tools.

They make simple objects such as plates. They also create more difficult things, like urns (lư, vạc). Many people in Lahic are also skilled in other crafts. They weave woolen carpets and clothing. And they create beautiful objects of wood and leather. But Lahic is best known for its coppersmiths. To reach Lahic, traders follow a rugged (gồ ghề) path that twists through the mountains.

A group of travelers driving across the Sahara Desert were startled (hoảng) to see a cool, inviting lake suddenly appear in the distance. They gazed with delight at the broad sheet of water sparkling (long lanh) in the sunlight. Busily, they made plans to go swimming as soon as they reached the lake. But their driver, an experienced desert guide, informed the passengers regretfully that when they reached the area ahead, they would find only dust, sand, and rocks. The travelers insisted that they could see something ahead. Those with cameras were even able to take pictures of the lake the driver said wasn’t there! Later they learned that what they had seen was a reflection of the sky on the hot, dry land. Their cameras, like their eyes, had seen the image the light rays had created. They had seen a mirage (ảo tưởng). Mirages appear when there are layers of air of different density. Next to the desert floor, the air was hot. Above this hot air was another layer of cooler, more dense air. Light rays passing down from the layer of more dense air into the layer of less dense air were bent upward. The bent rays reflected the sky. This bending of light rays is called refraction (khúc xạ). On a clear summer day, drivers may see this kind of mirage on a paved highway. Their eyes tell them that a patch of road ahead is wet. A blanket of hot air lies next to the road surface, which has been warmed by the sun. Light rays bend upward as they pass into this layer. What the drivers see is just a reflection of the sky. 60. The travelers took pictures of_____. A. dust on the road. B. rocks in the desert. C. the driver bending rays. D. a reflection of the sky. 61. The bending of light rays is called____. A. reflection B. subtraction (phép trừ) C. refraction D. a mirage 62. Which statement does the article lead you to believe? A. Drivers should stay off paved highways in summer. B. Blankets of hot air are better than blankets of wool. C. People see mirages even when they know what causes them. D. Tourists should not plan to go swimming when they see a lake. 63. Why could the travelers take pictures of a mirage? A. The camera, like their eyes, could see the image. B. They had new, expensive cameras and good film. C. The driver said they could take the pictures. D. They did not know the lake wasn’t there. 64. On the whole, the article tells about____. A. people who drive in the summer. B. mirages, and how they happen. C. travelers who stare at the sky. D. interesting things when people travel around the world.

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 harboured 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 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.
