V. (ĐH:10 điểm; CĐ: 15 đ) Đọc đoạn văn dưới đây và viết câu trả lời trả lời ngắn gọn cho mỗi câu hỏi từ 36 đến 40 vào phần _ sau mỗi câu hỏi.

For thousands of years, the ancient art form of Feng Shui has played a major role in Chinese life Feng Shui means ‘wind and water’ and

it is based on an appreciation of the relationship between people and the environment It involves changing the design of your living or working space to improve your fortune.

For instance, soon after a Hong Kong millionaire moved his business to a new skyscraper, his business began to do very badly He immediately called in Feng Shui experts They told him that because his new office block was round, it was like a huge cigarette, and all the energy was burning off through the roof They said that the only thing he could do to prevent this loss of energy was to build a swimming pool on the roof The millionaire followed their advice, and his business immediately started to do well.

In recent years, Feng Shui has become popular in many western countries, where companies such as B&Q have started to seek advice from Feng Shui experts Before his store was opened, Brian Ingliss, the manager of one of B & Q's stores in Britain, consulted a Feng Shui expert The expert advised him to create a lot of free space around the store Brian followed the advice, and within a year, the store was the most successful B&Q store in the country.

36 What kind of relationship does Feng Shui concern?

37 According to Feng Shui, what's wrong with a round building?

38 What did the Feng Shui expert advise Brian to do?

39 How did Brian's store benefit from following this advice?

40 What can be said about the writer's attitude towards Feng Shui?

Sometimes you know things about people the first time you see them, for example, that you want to be friends with them or that you don't trust them But perhaps this kind of intuition isn't as hard to explain as it may seem For instance, people give out body language signals all the time The way you hold your body, head and arms tells people about your mood If you hold your arms tightly at your sides, or fold them across your chest, people will generally feel that you are being defensive Holding your

head to one side shows interest in the other, while an easy, open posture indicates that you are self-confident All this affects the

way you feel about someone

Also, a stranger may remind you of a meeting with someone This may be because of something as simple as the fact that

he or she is physically similar to someone who treated you well or badly Your feelings about a stranger could be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place where you were happy as a child Since even a single word can bring back a memory such as that, you may never realize it is happening

Upon the creation of the United States, one of the core concepts on which the hopes for the new democracy were pinned

was the ideal that its citizens would be enlightened individuals with clearly articulated rights and the opportunity for individual

achievement and education It was believed that in a free nation where the power belongs to the people, the commitment to education defines the progress of that democracy and is the catalyst for future progress This core value has not only stood the test of time but has also grown in importance In this new Information Era and international economy, education is an increasingly vital commodity, a precursor of potential success and a driving force of change It is important to recognize, however, that we approach education today differently than in the past, partly because the kinds of jobs people had didn't require the kind of basic education and specialized training that is often required in the workforce today In the 1950s, for instance, only 20 percent of American jobs were classified as professional, 20 percent as skilled, and 60 percent as unskilled Today, our world has changed The proportion of unskilled jobs has fallen to 20 percent, while skilled jobs now account for at least 60 percent of the workforce Even more important, almost every job today increasingly requires a combination of academic knowledge and practical skills that require learning throughout a lifetime

Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and

medieval worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud Only

during the nineteenth century did silent reading become commonplace

One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud was a distraction to others Examinations of factors related to the historical development of silent reading have revealed that it became the usual mode of reading for most adults mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character

The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers As the number of readers increased, the number of potential listeners declined and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud would cause distraction to other readers

Towards the end of the century, there was still considerable argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully and over whether the reading of materials such as newspapers was

in some way mentally weakening Indeed, this argument remains with us still in education However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one

hand and by books and periodicals for a specialised readership on the other

By the end of the twentieth century, students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and

to use reading skills which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader The social, cultural and

technological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term “reading” implied

Câu 1: Reading aloud was more common in the medieval world because

A people relied on reading for entertainment

B silent reading had not been discovered

C there were few places available for private reading

D few people could read to themselves

Câu 2: The word “commonplace” in the first paragraph mostly means “ ”

A for everybody’s use B most preferable C attracting attention D widely used

Câu 3: The development of silent reading during the last century indicated

A an increase in the average age of readers B an increase in the number of books

C a change in the nature of reading D a change in the status of literate people

Câu 4: Silent reading, especially in public places, flourished mainly because of

A the decreasing need to read aloud B the development of libraries

Câu 5: It can be inferred that the emergence of the mass media and specialised reading materials was an

indication of

A a decline of standards of literacy B achange in the readers’ interest

C an alteration in educationalists’ attitudes D an improvement of printing techniques

Câu 6: The phrase “a specialised readership” in paragraph 4 mostly means “ ”

A a requirement for readers in a particular area of knowledge

B a limited number of readers in a particular area of knowledge

C a reading volume for particular professionals

D a status for readers specialised in mass media

Câu 7: The phrase “oral reader” in the last paragraph mostly means “a person who ”

Câu 8: All of the following might be the factors that affected the continuation of the old shared literacy culture

EXCEPT

C the diversity of reading materials D the printed mass media

Câu 9: Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A Reading aloud was more common in the past than it is today

B Not all printed mass media was appropriate for reading aloud

C The decline of reading aloud was wholly due to its distracting effect

D The change in reading habits was partly due to the social, cultural and technological changes

The Sun today is a yellow dwarf star It is fueled by thermonuclear reactions near its center that convert

hydrogen to helium The Sun has existed in its present state for about four billion six hundred million years and

is thousands of times larger than the Earth

By studying other stars, astronomers can predict what the rest of the Sun’s life will be like About five billion years from now, the core of the Sun will shrink and become hotter The surface temperature will fall The higher temperature of the center will increase the rate of thermonuclear reactions The outer regions of the Sun will expand approximately 35 million miles, about the distance to Mercury, which is the closest planet to the Sun The Sun will then be a red giant star Temperatures on the Earth will become too high for life to exist Once the Sun has used up its thermonuclear energy as a red giant, it will begin to shrink After it shrinks to the size of the Earth, it will become a white dwarf star The Sun may throw off huge amounts of gases in violent eruptions called nova explosions as it changes from a red giant to a white dwarf

After billions of years as a white dwarf, the Sun will have used up all its fuel and will have lost its heat Such a star is called a black dwarf After the Sun has become a black dwarf, the Earth will be dark and cold If

any atmosphere remains there, it will have frozen over the Earth’s surface

Câu 42: What will probably be the first stage of change for the Sun to become a red giant?
