Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins that were separated shortly after birth and brought up by different parents They found that achievement was based on intelligence, and later influenced by the child's environment One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted One of the twins received a normal upbringing, and performed well The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive parents and given every possible opportunity to develop its abilities That twin, though starting out with the same degree of intelligence as the other, performed even better This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability The more favorable the environment, the more a child's intelligence and ability are developed However, there is no link between intelligence and the socioeconomic level of a child's family In other words, it does not matter how poor or how rich a family is, as this does not affect intelligence Gifted people cannot be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them One professor of music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary performers, often because their parents had recognized their ability These musicians then needed at least ten years' hard work and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining.People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice: • Marry an intelligent person • Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents • Start a child's education early but avoid pushing the child too hard • Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instruments is essential for a child who wants to become an outstanding musician Câu 1: The upbringing of highly intelligent children requires A wealthy and loving parents B an expensive education C good musical instruments D parental support and encouragement Câu 2: The word "others" used in the first paragraph refers to A other people B other scientists C other geniuses D other children Câu 3: When scientists studied intelligence and ability in twins, they found that A ability depends mainly on intelligence and achievement B different twins generally have different levels of ability C intelligence and development are irrelevant to ability D ability depends both on intelligence and on environment Câu 4: Scientists chose twins for their study because A they have the same genetic background, usually with similar intelligence B they are born into the same family, hence the same upbringing C each twin has the same environment as his/her twin D they have the same economic background and hence the same opportunities Câu 5: How were great musicians different from ordinary musicians in their development? A They concentrated on music to the exclusion of other areas B Their ability was realized at an early stage and then nurtured C They practice playing their instruments for many years D They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic Câu 6: The writer advises that gifted children should be allowed to follow A only their interests in computer games B their own interests C their parents' interests D only their interests in musical instruments Câu 7: When encouraging their gifted children, parents should avoid A permitting them to follow their own interests B letting them play their own way C pushing their children too hard D starting their education at an early age Câu 8: The remark: "To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel." in the passage means that in order to become a genius A you need intelligence and you need to develop it B you must nourish your brain and train your muscles hard C you need to have good health and good nourishment D you should try to move quickly and efficiently Câu 9: The word "favorable" in the passage mostly means A "helping somebody to be more intelligent compared to other people" B "of high quality or an acceptable standard" C "good for someone and making him/ her likely to be successful" D "under the control or in the power of somebody else" Câu 10: All of the following statements are true EXCEPT A studying different twins is a useful scientific procedure B To become successful, a child needs both native intelligence and development C educational development depends completely on economic well-being D a child's intelligence is influenced by that of his/ her parents 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 11 to 20 Quite different from storm surges are the giant sea waves called tsunamis, which derive their name from the Japanese expression for "high water in a harbor" These waves are also referred to by the general public as tidal waves, although they have relatively little to with tides Scientists often refer to them as seismic sea waves, far more appropriate in that they result from undersea seismic activity Tsunamis are caused when the sea bottom suddenly moves, during an underwater earthquake or volcano, for example, and the water above the moving earth is suddenly displaced This sudden shift of water sets off a series of waves These waves can travel great distances at speeds close to 700 kilometers per hour In the open ocean, tsunamis have little noticeable amplitude, often no more than one or two meters It is when they hit the shallow water the coast that they increase in height, possibly up to 40 meters Tsunamis often occur in the Pacific because the Pacific is an area of heavy seismic activity Two areas of the Pacific well accustomed to the threat of tsunamis arc Japan and Hawaii Because the seismic activity that causes tsunamis in Japan often occurs on the ocean bottom quite close to the islands, the tsunamis that hit Japan often comes with little warning and can therefore prove disastrous Most of the tsunamis that hit the Hawaiian Islands, however, originate thousands of miles away near the coast of Alaska, so these tsunamis have a much greater distance to travel and the inhabitants of Hawaii generally have time for warning of their imminent arrival Tsunamis are certainly not limited to Japan and Hawaii In 1755, Europe experienced a calamitous tsunami, when movement along the fault lines near the Azores caused a massive tsunami to sweep onto the Portuguese coast and flood the heavily populated area around Lisbon The greatest tsunami on record occurred on the other side of the world in 1883 when the Krakatoa volcano underwent a massive explosion, sending waves more than 30 meters high onto nearby Indonesian islands; the tsunami from this volcano actually traveled around the world and was witnessed as far away as the English Channel Câu 11: The paragraph preceding this passage most probably discusses A underwater earthquakes B storm surges C tides D tidal waves Câu 12: According to the passage, all of the following are true about tidal waves EXCEPT that A they're caused by sudden changes in high and low tides B they refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves C they are the same as tsunamis D this terminology is not used by the scientific community Câu 13: The world "displaced" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to A located B filtered C moved D not pleased Câu 14: It can be inferred from the passage that tsunamis A are often identified by ships on the ocean B generally reach heights greater than 40 meters C are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open ocean D cause severe damage in the middle of the ocean Câu 15: As used in the passage, water that is "shallow" isn't A coastal B deep C clear D tidal Câu 16: A main difference between tsunamis in Japan and in Hawaii is that tsunamis in Japan are more likely to A come from greater distances B be less of a problem C originate in Alaska D arrive without warning Câu 17: The possessive "their" in the third paragraph refers to A these tsunamis B the inhabitants of Hawaii C the Hawaiian islands D thousands of miles Câu 18: A "calamitous" tsunami in the last paragraph is one that is A at fault B expected C disastrous D extremely calm Câu 19: From the expression "on record" in the last paragraph, it can be inferred the tsunami that accompanied the Krakatoa volcano A might not be the greatest tsunami ever B was not as strong as the tsunami in Lisbon C was filmed as it was happening D occurred before efficient records were kept Câu 20: The passage suggests that - the tsunami resulting from the Kr- volcano A was unobserved outside of the Indonesian islands B resulted in little damage C caused volcanic explosions in the English Channel D was far more destructive close to the source than far away Mark the letter A,B,C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase to fill in the blank in the following passage from 21 to 30 Environmental Concerns Earth is the only place we know of in the universe that can support human life(21) human activities are making the planet less fit to live on As the western world carries on consuming two-thirds of the world's resources while half of the world's population so (22) to stay alive we are rapidly destroying the (23) resource we have by which all people can survive and prosper Everywhere fertile soil is(24) built on or washed into the sea Renewable resources are exploited so much that they will never be able to recover (25) We discharge pollutants into the atmosphere without any thought of the consequences As a (26) the planet's ability to support people is being reduced at the very time when rising human numbers and consumption are (27) increasingly heavy demands on it The Earth's (28) resources are there for us to use We need food, water, air, energy, medicines, warmth, shelter and minerals to (29) us fed, comfortable, healthy and active If we are sensible in how we use the resources they will (30) indefinitely But if we use them wastefully and excessively they will soon run out and everyone will suffer Câu 21: A Still B Despite C Yet D Although Câu 22: A for B just C already D entirely Câu 23: A lone B individual C lonely D alone Câu 24: A sooner B rather C either D neither Câu 25: A Completely B quite C greatly D utterly Câu 26: A result B product C development D reaction Câu 27: A having B doing C taking D making Câu 28: A natural B real C living D genuine Câu 29: A stay B keep C maintain D hold Câu 30: A last B stand C remain D go Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to show underlined part that needs correction Câu 31: Drying food by means of solar energy is a ancient process applied wherever ABCD food an climatic conditions make it possible Câu 32: The examination will test your ability to understand spoken English, to read AB non technical language, and writing correctly CD Câu 33: That man was an easy recognized figure with his long, whrite beard and wide brimmed had ABCD Câu 34: America’s first satellite exploded before it had risen three and a half feet off the ground ABCD Câu 35: An itch resulting when a nerve that can carry pain is only slightly stimulated ABCD Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions Câu 36: Your teacher is reading a book.You want to ask her a question You say: A I’m sorry, I ask you a question B Excuse me May I ask you a question?
