many would die in a matter of minutes So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees Câu 19: The title for this passage could be A “Animal Life in a Desert Environment” B “Desert Plants” C “Man’s Life in a Desert Environment” D “Life Underground” Câu 20: The word “tissues” in the passage mostly means A “the smallest units of living matter that can exist on their own” B “the simplest forms of life that exist in air, water, living and dead creatures and plants” C “collections of cells that form the different parts of humans, animals and plants” D “very small living things that cause infectious disease in people, animals and plants” Câu 21: Man can hardly understand why many animals live their whole life in the desert, as A water is an essential part of his existence B water composes the greater part of the tissues of living things C very few lager animals are found in the desert D sources of flowing water are rare in a desert Câu 22: The phrase “those forms” in the passage refers to all of the following EXCEPT A many large animals B water-loving animals C moist-skinned animals D the coyote and the bobcat Câu 23: According to the passage, creatures in the desert A are more active during the day than those in the tangled forest B are not as healthy as those anywhere else in the world C run and leap more slowly than those in the tangled forest D run and leap faster than those in the tangled forest Câu 24: The author mentions all the following as examples of the behavior of desert animals EXCEPT A they dig home underground B they sleep during the day C they are watchful and quiet D they are noisy and aggressive Câu 25: The word “emaciated” in the passage mostly means A “living or growing in natural conditions, not kept in a house or on a farm” B “large and strong, difficult to control or deal with” C “thin and weak because of lack of food and water” D “able to get what one wants in a clever way, especially by tricking or cheating” Câu 26: According to the passage, one characteristic of animals living in the desert is that A they are smaller and fleeter than forest animals B they can hunt in temperature of 150 degrees C they live in an accommodating environment D they are less healthy than animals living in other places Câu 27: The word “burrows” in the passage mostly means A “places where a particular type of animal or plant is normally found” B “holes or tunnels in the ground made by animals for them to live in” C “places where insects or other small creatures live and produce their young” D “structures made of metal bars in which animals or birds are kept” Câu 28: We can infer from the passage that A desert life is colorful and diverse B living things adjust to their environment C healthy animals live longer lives D water is the basis of desert life Câu 29: Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to identify the underlined part that is not correct My parents were always busy on the farming, so we didn’t get the help with school work A B C any things like that children get today D Câu 30: Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word(s) CLOSEST in meaning to the underlined word(s) in each of the following questions The notice was declared such a long time ago that it can't be seen now A is unvisible B is unnoticed C is blind D is invisible Câu 31: The carefully you write, the fewer mistakes you will make A many B more C much D most Câu 32: Choose one option A, B, C or D corresponding to the best sentence which is made up from the given words Sahara/ world/ largest/ hot/ desert A The Sahara was the world’s largest hot desert B The Sahara is the world’s largest hot desert C The Sahara is world’s largest hot desert D Sahara is the world’s largest hot desert Câu 33: They sat down to a meal A five courses B five-course C five course’s D five-coursed Câu 34: There were a few small villages , but no major city for miles around A here and there B on and off C back and forth D up and down Câu 35: Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word that has different stress from the rest A dynamic B electric C emphatic D electronic Câu 36: They / leave/ early/ not/ catch/ traffic A They left early in order to not get caught in the traffic B They left early to avoid being caught in the traffic C They left early so as to not get caught in the traffic D They left early so that not to catch in the traffic Câu 37: Wind/ carry/ many/ seed/ island A Winds carry many the seed to an island B Winds carry many seeds to islands C Wind carries many seeds to the islands D Wind carry many of seeds to the islands Câu 38: A full scholarship to Harvard and you’re worried about leaving your job?

And he took his attitude of getting close to the action to an extreme His photograph, The Death of a Loyalist Soldier is a prime example of this as Capa captures the very moment the soldier falls However, many have questioned the authenticity of this photograph, claiming that it was staged When World war II broke out, Capa was in New York, but he was soon back in Europe covering the war for Life magazine Some of his most famous work was created on 6th June 1944 when he swam ashore with the first assault on Omaha Beach in the D-Day invasion of Normandy Capa, armed only with two cameras, took more than one hundred photographs in the first hour of the landing, but a mistake in the darkroom during the drying of the film destroyed all but eight frames It was the images from these frames however that inspired the visual style of Steven Spielberg's Oscar winning movie ‘Saving Private Ryan’ When Life magazine published the photographs, they claimed that they were slightly out of focus, and Capa later used this as the title of his autobiographical account of the war Capa’s private life was no less dramatic He was friend to many of Hollywood’s directors, actors and actresses In 1943 he fell in love with the wife of actor John Austin His affair with her lasted until the end of the war and became the subject of his war memoirs He was at one time lover to actress Ingrid Bergman Their relationship finally ended in 1946 when he refused to settle in Hollywood and went off to Turkey 6 In 1947 Capa was among a group of photojournalists who founded Magnum Photos This was a cooperative organisation set up to support photographers and help them to retain ownership of the copyright to their work Capa went on to document many other wars He never attempted to glamorise war though, but to record the horror He once said, "The desire of any war photographer is to be put out of business." Capa died as he had lived After promising not to photograph any more wars, he accepted an assignment to go to Indochina to cover the first Indochina war On May 25th 1954 Capa was accompanying a French regiment when he left his jeep to take some photographs of the advance and stepped on a land mine He was taken to a nearby hospital, still clutching his camera, but was pronounced dead on arrival He left behind him a testament to the horrors of war and a standard for photojournalism that few others have been able to reach Capa’s legacy has lived on through and in 1966 his brother Cornell founded the International Fund for Concerned Photography in his honor There is also a Robert Capa Gold Medal, which is given to the photographer who publishes the best photographic reporting from abroad with evidence of exceptional courage But perhaps his greatest legacy of all is the haunting images of the human struggles that he captured.Top of Form Câu 69: Why did Capa change his name?
