When a species is no longer adapted to a changed environment, it may perish The exact causes of a species’ death vary from situation to situation Rapid ecological change may render an environment hostile to a species For example, temperatures may change and a species may not be able to adapt Food Resources may be affected by environmental changes, which will then cause problems for a species requiring these resources Other species may become better adapted to an environment, resulting in competition and, ultimately, in the death of a species The fossil record reveals that extinction has occurred throughout the history of Earth Recent analyses have also revealed that on some occasions many species became extinct at the same time – a mass extinction One of the best-known examples of mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago with the demise of dinosaurs and many other forms of life Perhaps the largest mass extinction was the one that occurred 225 million years ago When approximately 95 percent of all species died, mass extinctions can be caused by a relatively rapid change in the environment and can be worsened by the close interrelationship of many species If, for example, something were to happen to destroy much of the plankton in the oceans, then the oxygen content of Earth would drop, affection even organisms not living in the oceans Such a change would probably lead to a mass extinction One interesting, and controversial, finding is that extinctions during the past 250 million years have tended to be more intense every 26 million years This periodic extinction might be due to intersection of the Earth’s orbit with a cloud of comets, but this theory is purely speculative Some researchers have also speculated that extinction may often be random That is, certain species may be eliminated and others may survive for no particular reason A species’ survival may have nothing to with its ability or inability to adapt If so, some of evolutionary history may reflect a sequence of essentially random events 45 The word “it” in line refers to A environment B species C extinction D 99 percent 46 The word “ultimately” in line is closest in meaning to A exceptionally B dramatically C eventually D unfortunately 47 What does the author say in paragraph regarding most species in Earth’s history?

A Temperature changes B Availability of food resources C Introduction of new species D Competition among species 49 The word “demise” in line 10 is closest in meaning to A change B recovery C help D death 50 Why is “plankton” mentioned in line 14? A To demonstrate the interdependence of different species B To emphasize the importance of food resources in preventing mass extinction C To illustrate a comparison between organisms that live on the land and those that live in the ocean D To point out that certain species could never become extinct 51 According to paragraph 2, evidence from fossils suggests that A extinction of species has occurred from time to time throughout Earth’s history B extinctions on Earth have generally been massive C there has been only one mass extinction in Earth’s history D dinosaurs became extinct much earlier than scientists originally believed 52 The word “finding” in line 16 is closest in meaning to A published information B research method C ongoing experiment D scientific discovery 53 Which of the following can be inferred from the theory of periodic extinction mentioned in paragraph 3? A Many scientists could be expected to disagree with it B Evidence to support the theory has recently been found C The theory is no longer seriously considered D Most scientists believe the theory to be accurate 54 In paragraph 3, the author makes which of the following statements about a species’ survival? A It reflects the interrelationship of many species B It may depend on chance events C It does not vary greatly from species to species D It is associated with astronomical conditions Read the text below and choose the best answer to each question Jazz has been called “the art of expression set to music”, and “America’s great contribution to music” It has functioned as popular art and enjoyed periods of fairly widespread public response, in the “jazz age” of the 1920s, in the “swing era” of the late 1930s and in the peak popularity of modern jazz in the late 1950s The standard legend about Jazz is that it originated around the end of the 19th century in New Orleans and moved up the Mississippi River to Memphis, St Louis, and finally to Chicago It welded together the elements of Ragtime, marching band music, and the Blues However, the influences of what led to those early sounds go back to tribal African drum beats and European musical structures Buddy Bolden, aNew Orleans barber and cornet player, is generally considered to have been the first real Jazz musician, around 1891 What made Jazz significantly different from the other earlier forms of music was the use of improvisation Jazz displayed a break from traditional music where a composer wrote an entire piece of music on paper, leaving the musicians to break their backs playing exactly what was written on the score In a Jazz piece, however, the song is simply a starting point, or sort of skeletal guide for the Jazz musicians to improvise around Actually, many of the early Jazz musicians were bad sight readers and some couldn’t even read music at all Generally speaking, these early musicians couldn’t make very much money and were stuck working menial jobs to make a living The second wave of New Orleans Jazz musicians included such memorable players as Joe Oliver, Kid Ory, and Jelly Roll Morton These men formed small bands and took the music of earlier musicians, improved its complexity, and gained greater success This music is known as “hot Jazz” due to the enormously fast speeds and rhythmic drive A young cornet player by the name of Louis Armstrong was discovered by Joe Oliver inNew Orleans He soon grew up to become one of the greatest and most successful musicians of all time, and later one of the biggest stars in the world The impact of Armstrong and other talented early Jazz musicians changed the way we look at music 55 The Passage answers which of the following questions? A Why did Ragtime, marching band music, and the Blues lose popularity after about 1900? B What were the origins of Jazz and how did it differ from other forms of music? C What has been the greatest contribution of cornet players to music in the twentieth century?

A many early Jazz musicians had poor sight B there is no slow music in Jazz C many early Jazz musicians had little formal musical training D the cornet is the most common musical instrument used in Jazz 61 The word “menial” in line 14 is closest in meaning to A means B attractive C degrading D skilled 62 According to the passage, which of the following belonged to the second wave of New Orleans Jazz musicians? A Louis Armstrong B Buddy Bolden 63 All of the following are true EXCEPT A the late 1930s was called the “swing era” C St Louis D Joe Oliver B “hot Jazz” is rhythmic C Jazz has been said to beAmerica’s greatest contribution to music D Joe Oliver is generally considered to be the first real Jazz musician 64 The word “its” in line 16 refers to A small bands B earlier music C men D earlier musicians WRITING: Part 1: Finish each of the following sentences in such a way that it means the same as the sentence printed before it 65 I don’t intend to reply to that rude letter from Edward I have 66 They said that Paula had quit five jobs before working for us Paula…………………………………………………………………………………… 67 I was on the point of leaving the house when he came No sooner………………………………………………………………………………… 68 They would have never accepted his money if they had known his plan Had……………………………………………………………………………………… 69 “ Let’s go to the cinema tonight” he said He suggested……………………………………………………………………………… Part II: In about 150 words, write a paragraph about one of your hobbies Đáp án đề thi thử THPTQG môn Tiếng Anh - THPT chuyên Bạc Liêu năm 2015 A B 17 A 25 A 33 C 41 C 49 D 57 B B 10 C 18 D 26 A 34 B 42 B 50 A 58 C A 11 A 19 D 27 C 35 D 43 D 51 A 59 A A 12 D 20 C 28 B 36 A 44 A 52 D 60 C B 13 B 21 D 29 A 37 A 45 B 53 A 61 C B 14 B 22 B 30 B 38 A 46 C 54 B 62 D C 15 C 23 B 31 A 39 D 47 D 55 B 63 D B 16 B 24 C 32 C 40 C 48 C 65 I have no intention of replying to that rude letter from Edward 66 Paula was said to have quit five jobs before working for us 67 No sooner had I left the house than he came 68 Had they known his plan, they would have never accepted his money 69 He suggested going to the cinema that night 56 D 64 B ...
