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 following questions

The custom of paying a bride price before marriage is still a well-established part of many

African cultures In paying a bride price, the family of the groom must provide payment to the family

of the bride before the marriage is allowed The bride price can vary greatly from culture to culture in Africa In the Zulu and Swazi tribes of southern Africa, the bride price often takes the form of cattle In Western African, kola nuts, shells, and other goods are often used for the payment of the bride price

The actual payment of money sometimes takes place, but the payment of goods is more frequent The

amount of paid in a bride price can also vary In modern times, the bride price is occasionally quite small and its value is mainly symbolic However, the bride price can still be quite high, especially

among prominent or highly traditional families

There are a number of justifications used to explain the payment of bride price The first is that

the bride price represents an acknowledgement of the expense the bride’s family has gone in order to raise her and bring her up as a suitable bride for the groom It also represents payment for the loss of a family member, since the bride will officially become a member of her husband’s family and will leave her own On a deeper level the bride price represents payment for the fact that the bride will bring children into the family of the groom, thereby increasing the wealth of the family This concept

is reinforced by the fact that the bride price must often be returned if the bride fails to bear children The payment of the bride price has quite a number of effects on African society First, the

payment of bride price acts to increase the stability of African family structures Sons are dependent

on their fathers and older relatives to help them pay the bride price of their wives, and this generally leads to greater levels of obedience and respect The negotiations between the two

Trang 4/6 - Mã đề 132

families concerning the bride price allow the parents and other family members to meet and get to know one another before the marriage Finally, since the bride price must often be repaid in case of

divorce, the bride’s family often works to make sure that any marital problems are solved quickly

Bride prices also work as a system of wealth distribution in African cultures Wealthier families can afford to support the marriage of their son, and thus their wealth is transferred to other families

Question 40: Based on the information in paragraph 1, the term bride price can best be explained as

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

The pain of a migraine headache can virtually disable a person who suffers from it Millions and

millions of people suffer from migraines, although many of them do not even recognize that a migraine is different from a regular headache A migraine is not at all the same as a normal headache, and it seems to have a very physical cause

One symptom of a migraine is a precursor, which is a visual aura before an attack Yet only about

a third of patients actually experience that, and it is, therefore, not a requirement in the diagnosis Other symptoms include increased pain when a person moves, nausea, and sensitivity to light and sound

Scientists now believe that migraines are caused, not by abnormal blood vessels as previously believed, but instead by a unique electrical disorder of brain cells Physicians used to treat migraines with medicine to constrict blood vessels because of the belief that dilated blood vessels were the cause

The new research has been enhanced by imaging devices that allow scientists to watch patients’

brains during an attack The results show that sufferers have abnormally excitable neurons, or brain nerve cells Prior to the attack, the neurons suddenly fire off electrical pulses at the back of the brain, which ripple like waves on a lake after a stone hits the water They ripple across the top and then the back of the brain, ultimately affecting the brain stem where the pain centers are located The pain then generates possibly from the brain stem itself or from blood vessels inflamed by the rapidly changing blood flow, or perhaps from both

Scientists have experimented by applying a powerful magnet to stimulate the neurons and discovered that some people’s brains react differently than others’ When stimulation was applied to the brains of people who had suffered migraines, they saw the initial aura, and some actually suffered migraines When the same stimulation was applied to the brains of people who had never suffered migraines, they realized no effect and the neurons showed no change

Scientists and doctors continue to work on the research in an attempt to find the perfect treatment

It is considered important to treat migraines because it is believed that prolonged untreated attacks could cause physical changes in the brain leading to chronic pain

Question 50: The author implies that a migraine _

A is caused by the same things that cause a headache

B can be treated with regular aspirin

C is just a strong headache

D has a specific scientific cause, unlike a headache

Question 51: The word it in paragraph 1 refers to

A migraine B person C pain D suffering

Question 52: The prior treatment for migraines included medicine that

A tightened blood vessels B eliminated stress

C eliminated the aura D eliminated any pain

Question 53: The word “enhanced” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to

A described B studied C hindered D augmented

Question 54: The new research indicates that the neurons in the brain of migraine sufferers

A have more electrical charge than those of people who do not suffer migraines

B do not react

C tend to fire in an unusual pattern when a migraine begins

D have no effect on migraines

Question 55: Scientists have recently learned more about the cause of migraines from _

A using imaging devices that allow one to watch the neurons

B giving patients aspirin and watching for results

C asking patients to describe the symptoms

D taking blood tests

Question 56: According to the passage, scientists now know that unusual neurons in certain people

are the cause of migraines, they

Trang 6/6 - Mã đề 132

B know all they need to know about the cause of migraines

C have developed medicine to permanently reverse the neurons’ charge

D still do not know exactly what causes the pain

Question 57: Scientists have caused neurons to react by applying

A electric charges B imaging C a magnetic field D drugs

Question 58: The best title for this passage would be what?

A Imaging As a Means of Studying Migraines B New Treatments for Migraines

C New Evidence of How Migraines Are Formed D How Migraines and Headaches are Different Question 59: Researchers believe that long-term migraine sufferers _

B are not following instructions about their environment

C can take a migraine medicine and avoid problems in the future

D are susceptible to illness
