Nắng xuống, trời lên sâu chót vót;

sự việc ấy đối với tâm lí của nhân vật Mị
2,0
1 Hoàn cảnh diễn ra sự việc Mị nhìn thấy dòng nước mắt của A Phủ (1,0 điểm)
- Do sơ ý để hổ bắt mất bò, A Phủ bị thống lí Pá Tra trói đứng, bỏ mặc cho đói rét
suốt mấy đêm liền giữa kì sương muối khắc nghiệt ở Hồng Ngài; còn Mị sau bao
năm bị đày đọa cùng cực cũng đã trở nên chai lì Những đêm trước, tuy vẫn trở
dậy thổi lửa, hơ tay, nhìn thấy A Phủ bị trói nhưng Mị chỉ dửng dưng, vô cảm
0,5
- Đêm ấy, trong nỗi bất lực, bế tắc và hoàn toàn tuyệt vọng, A Phủ đã khóc; đúng
lúc đó, Mị nhìn sang và bắt gặp dòng nước mắt của A Phủ
0,5
2 Ý nghĩa của sự việc đối với tâm lí của nhân vật Mị (1,0 điểm)
- Việc nhìn thấy dòng nước mắt của A Phủ là khởi đầu cho sự thay đổi lớn trong
tâm lí của Mị; Mị nhớ lại lần cũng bị hành hạ như thế, mà xót xa thương mình; từ
đó đồng cảm với nỗi đơn độc và tuyệt vọng của A Phủ
0,5
- Từ mối đồng cảm ấy, Mị càng hiểu sâu sắc hơn sự độc ác của cha con thống lí
Pá Tra, thấy rõ sự nguy khốn vô lí đang ập xuống A Phủ; lòng trắc ẩn của người
phụ nữ phút chốc thức dậy đã đem lại sức mạnh cho Mị, khiến Mị dám liều mình
cứu A Phủ
0,5
2 Trình bày suy nghĩ về ý kiến: Ngưỡng mộ thần tượng là một nét đẹp văn hóa,
nhưng mê muội thần tượng là một thảm họa
3,0
1 Giải thích ý kiến (0,5 điểm)
- Ngưỡng mộ thần tượng là sự tôn kính, mến phục nồng nhiệt dành cho những đối
tượng được xem là hình mẫu lí tưởng hoặc có quyền năng đặc biệt, có sức cuốn
hút mạnh mẽ đối với cá nhân hay cộng đồng; mê muội thần tượng là sự say mê,
tôn sùng một cách mù quáng, thiếu tỉnh táo trước thần tượng
- Về nội dung, ý kiến này đề cập đến tính hai mặt của việc say mê thần tượng: nếu
ngưỡng mộ đúng mức là tích cực, thì ngưỡng mộ quá mức là tiêu cực và có thể
còn gây ra hậu quả khôn lường
0,5
2 Bàn luận về ý kiến (2,0 điểm)
- Ngưỡng mộ thần tượng là một nét đẹp văn hóa (1,0 điểm):
+ Ngưỡng mộ thần tượng thể hiện nhu cầu văn hóa cao của con người: nhu cầu
được sống trong những tình cảm cao cả, nồng nhiệt; nhu cầu được hướng tới,
vươn tới những tầm cao, những đỉnh cao sáng giá của đời sống
0,5
1
Trang 16+ Ngưỡng mộ thần tượng là một ứng xử văn hóa, biểu hiện ở các phương diện:
thái độ trân trọng mến phục; hành động tôn vinh cổ vũ; ngôn ngữ ca ngợi tán
dương
0,5
- Mê muội thần tượng là một thảm họa (1,0 điểm):
+ Mê muội thần tượng là trạng thái mù quáng trong nhận thức, thái quá trong tình
cảm, không còn khả năng suy xét, phân biệt đúng sai, lẫn lộn về giá trị; mê muội
thần tượng còn dẫn đến hành động sai lầm quá khích, gây ra những hậu quả tệ hại
cho bản thân và xã hội
+ Việc mù quáng chạy theo thần tượng hay khuyếch trương thần tượng quá mức
đều là biểu hiện của sự mê muội thần tượng, đều là những thái độ và ứng xử thiếu
lành mạnh, thậm chí thiếu văn hóa, có thể gây ra những hậu quả khôn lường
0,5
0,5
- Cần có nhận thức đúng đắn về việc ngưỡng mộ thần tượng và lường được những
hậu quả của sự mê muội để có thái độ và cách ứng xử phù hợp, làm cho tâm hồn
phong phú hơn, nâng tầm văn hóa cho bản thân, từ đó phấn đấu vươn tới những
tầm cao của đời sống
- Biết chế ngự những cảm xúc say mê thái quá trước thần tượng, không chạy theo
thần tượng một cách mù quáng; phê phán mọi biểu hiện mê muội thần tượng trong
cuộc sống hàng ngày, trước hết là trong học đường

truyện ngắn Vợ nhặt của Kim Lân

- Nam Cao là một nhà nhân đạo lớn, một ngòi bút hiện thực xuất sắc, một bậc
thầy về nghệ thuật truyện ngắn; sáng tác mang triết lí nhân sinh sâu sắc Chí Phèo
là đỉnh cao trong sự nghiệp của Nam Cao; truyện có kết thúc độc đáo, tô đậm
được chủ đề tư tưởng của tác phẩm
- Kim Lân là nhà văn có sở trường về truyện ngắn; chuyên viết về nông thôn và
đời sống của người dân nghèo với ngòi bút đôn hậu và hóm hỉnh Vợ nhặt là
truyện ngắn tiêu biểu của Kim Lân; kết thúc truyện đặc sắc, khắc sâu được chủ đề
tư tưởng của tác phẩm
0,5
2 Về ý nghĩa của kết thúc truyện ngắn Chí Phèo (2,0 điểm)
- Ý nghĩa nội dung (1,0 điểm):
+ “Cái lò gạch cũ” vốn là nơi Chí Phèo bị bỏ rơi lúc lọt lòng, giờ đây khi Chí
Phèo vừa chết lại xuất hiện trong ý nghĩ của thị Nở ở kết thúc truyện, đã gợi ra
được sự quẩn quanh, bế tắc trong tấn bi kịch tha hóa và bị cự tuyệt quyền sống
lương thiện của người nông dân
0,5
+ Kết thúc truyện thể hiện tư tưởng nhân đạo sâu sắc của Nam Cao: đồng cảm với
nỗi thống khổ của người nông dân dưới ách thống trị tàn bạo của bọn địa chủ
phong kiến, trân trọng khát vọng được sống lương thiện của họ
0,5
Trang 17- Ý nghĩa nghệ thuật (1,0 điểm):
+ Truyện kết thúc bằng cách lặp lại hình ảnh ở phần mở đầu tạo nên kết cấu đầu cuối tương ứng gợi ra vòng tròn luẩn quẩn của thân phận Chí Phèo, giúp tô đậm chủ đề tư tưởng: cuộc đời Chí Phèo tuy kết thúc nhưng tấn bi kịch Chí Phèo sẽ vẫn còn tiếp diễn
0,5
+ Kết thúc truyện vừa khép vừa mở dành nhiều khoảng trống cho người đọc tưởng tượng và suy ngẫm, tạo ra được dư âm sâu bền đối với sự tiếp nhận
0,5
3 Về ý nghĩa của kết thúc truyện ngắn Vợ nhặt (2,0 điểm)
- Ý nghĩa nội dung (1,0 điểm):
+ Hình ảnh “đám người đói và lá cờ đỏ” hiện lên trong tâm trí Tràng vừa gợi ra cảnh ngộ đói khát thê thảm vừa gợi ra những tín hiệu của cuộc cách mạng, cả hai đều là những nét chân thực trong bức tranh đời sống lúc bấy giờ
0,5
+ Kết thúc truyện góp phần thể hiện tư tưởng nhân đạo của Kim Lân: trân trọng niềm khát vọng sống ngay bên bờ vực cái chết của người lao động nghèo; niềm tin bất diệt vào tương lai tươi sáng
0,5
- Ý nghĩa nghệ thuật (1,0 điểm):
+ Hình ảnh dùng để kết thúc truyện là triển vọng sáng sủa của hiện thực tăm tối,
đó là tương lai đang nảy sinh trong hiện tại, vì thế nó quyết định đến âm hưởng lạc quan chung của câu chuyện
0,5
+ Đây là kiểu kết thúc mở giúp thể hiện xu hướng vận động tích cực của cuộc sống được mô tả trong toàn bộ câu chuyện; dành khoảng trống cho người đọc suy tưởng, phán đoán
0,5
4 Về sự tương đồng và khác biệt của hai kết thúc truyện (0,5 điểm)
- Tương đồng: Hai kết thúc truyện cùng phản ánh hiện thực tăm tối của con người
trước Cách mạng tháng Tám; cùng góp phần thể hiện tư tưởng nhân đạo của mỗi nhà văn; cùng là những kết thúc có tính mở, giàu sức gợi
- Khác biệt: Kết thúc truyện Chí Phèo phản ánh hiện thực luẩn quẩn, bế tắc của
người nông dân lao động, được thể hiện qua kết cấu đầu cuối tương ứng hàm ý
tương lai sẽ chỉ là sự lặp lại của hiện tại; kết thúc truyện Vợ nhặt phản ánh xu
hướng vận động tất yếu của số phận con người, được thể hiện qua kết cấu đối lập hàm ý tương lai sẽ mở lối cho hiện tại
0,5
3.b Cảm nhận về hình ảnh tạo vật thiên nhiên và tâm trạng của nhân vật trữ tình
trong đoạn thơ của bài Tràng giang

- Tràng giang là bài thơ xuất sắc, được in trong tập Lửa thiêng, rất tiêu biểu cho
“nỗi buồn sông núi” của Huy Cận; trong đó hình ảnh tạo vật thiên nhiên thấm đẫm tâm trạng của cái tôi trữ tình, vừa tiêu biểu cho thời đại Thơ mới vừa phảng phất phong vị cổ điển
0,5
Trang 182 Hình ảnh tạo vật thiên nhiên và tâm trạng của nhân vật trữ tình (4,5 điểm)
- Hình ảnh tạo vật thiên nhiên (1,5 điểm):

biên, rợn ngợp với nỗi buồn mênh mang, bất tận
0,5
+ Không gian thơ mở ra với tất cả các chiều hướng bao la, bát ngát của vũ trụ
+ Thiên nhiên quạnh vắng, vạn vật cách rời, chia lìa: sự vật nhỏ bé thì mong manh
trôi dạt giữa mênh mông sóng nước; tạo vật to lớn thì trơ trọi, lạc lõng; không gian chiều hôm thiếu vắng mọi âm thanh sự sống
0,5 0,5
- Tâm trạng của nhân vật trữ tình (1,5 điểm):
+ Cái tôi cô đơn thấu cảm được sự nhỏ bé, bơ vơ trong vũ trụ rộng lớn

The first American immigrants, beginning more than 20,000 years ago, were intercontinental wanderers: hunters and their families following animal (51) from Asia to America, across a land bridge where the Bering Strait is today (52) Spain’s Christopher Columbus “discovered” the New World in 1492, about 1.5 million Native Americans lived in what is now the continental United States, although estimates of the number (53) greatly Mistaking the place where he landed – San Salvador in the Bahamas – (54) the Indies, Columbus called the Native Americans “Indians.”
During the next 200 years, people from several European countries followed Columbus across the Atlantic Ocean to explore America and (55) up trading posts and colonies Native Americans suffered (56) from the influx of Europeans The transfer of land from Indian to European – and later American – hands (57) accomplished through treaties, wars, and coercion, with Indians constantly giving (58) as the newcomers moved west In the 19th century, the government’s preferred solution to the Indian “problem” was to force tribes to inhabit specific plots
of land called reservations Some tribes fought to keep from (59) land they had traditionallyused In many cases the reservation land was (60) poor quality, and Indians came to depend
on government assistance Poverty and joblessness among Native Americans still exist today

Question 60: A in B with C of D under
Trang 27Read the following passage on commuting, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet
to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 61 to 70
Commuting is the practice of travelling a long distance to a town or city to work each day, and then
travelling home again in the evening The word commuting comes from commutation ticket, a US rail
ticket for repeated journeys, called a season ticket in Britain Regular travellers are called
commuters
The US has many commuters A few, mostly on the East Coast, commute by train or subway, but most depend on the car Some leave home very early to avoid the traffic jams, and sleep in their cars until their office opens Many people accept a long trip to work so that they can live in quiet bedroom communities away from the city, but another reason is ‘white flight’ In the 1960s most cities began
to desegregate their schools, so that there were no longer separate schools for white and black children Many white families did not want to send their children to desegregated schools, so they moved to the suburbs, which have their own schools, and where, for various reasons, few black people live
Millions of people in Britain commute by car or train Some spend two or three hours a day travelling, so that they and their families can live in suburbia or in the countryside Cities are surrounded by commuter belts Part of the commuter belt around London is called the stockbroker belt because it contains houses where rich business people live Some places are becoming dormitory towns, because people sleep there but take little part in local activities
Most commuters travel to and from work at the same time, causing the morning and evening rush hours, when buses and trains are crowded and there are traffic jams on the roads Commuters on trains rarely talk to each other and spend their journey reading, sleeping or using their mobile phones, though this is not popular with other passengers Increasing numbers of people now work at home
some days of the week, linked to their offices by computer, a practice called telecommuting
Cities in both Britain and the US are trying to reduce the number of cars coming into town each day Some companies encourage car pooling (called car sharing in Britain), an arrangement for people who live and work near each other to travel together Some US cities have a public service that helps such people to contact each other, and traffic lanes are reserved for car-pool vehicles But
cars and petrol/gas are cheap in the US, and many people prefer to drive alone because it gives them
more freedom In Britain many cities have park-and-ride schemes, car parks on the edge of the city from which buses take drivers into the centre

Read the following passage on learning by Mazur, James E, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 71 to 80
Learning means acquiring knowledge or developing the ability to perform new behaviors It is common to think of learning as something that takes place in school, but much of human learning occurs outside the classroom, and people continue to learn throughout their lives
Even before they enter school, young children learn to walk, to talk, and to use their hands to manipulate toys, food, and other objects They use all of their senses to learn about the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells in their environments They learn how to interact with their parents, siblings, friends, and other people important to their world When they enter school, children learn basic academic subjects such as reading, writing, and mathematics They also continue to learn a great deal outside the classroom They learn which behaviors are likely to be rewarded and which are likely to
be punished They learn social skills for interacting with other children After they finish school, people must learn to adapt to the many major changes that affect their lives, such as getting married, raising children, and finding and keeping a job
Because learning continues throughout our lives and affects almost everything we do, the study of learning is important in many different fields Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate children Psychologists, social workers, criminologists, and other human-service workers need to understand how certain experiences change people’s behaviors Employers, politicians, and advertisers make use of the principles of learning to influence the behavior of workers, voters, and consumers
Learning is closely related to memory, which is the storage of information in the brain Psychologists who study memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage
takes place, and how the brain later retrieves knowledge when we need it In contrast, psychologists
who study learning are more interested in behavior and how behavior changes as a result of a person’s experiences
There are many forms of learning, ranging from simple to complex Simple forms of learning
involve a single stimulus A stimulus is anything perceptible to the senses, such as a sight, sound,
smell, touch, or taste In a form of learning known as classical conditioning, people learn to associate two stimuli that occur in sequence, such as lightning followed by thunder In operant conditioning, people learn by forming an association between a behavior and its consequences (reward or punishment) People and animals can also learn by observation - that is, by watching others perform behaviors More complex forms of learning include learning languages, concepts, and motor skills
