Trang 1ĐÁP ÁN 5 ĐỀ ĐỌC HIỂU – CÁC TRƯỜNG CHUYÊN 2016
ĐỀ 1: TRƯỜNG THPT CHUYÊN PHAN BỘI CHÂU – NGHỆ AN (LẦN 3) 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 from 35 to 44
Bird migration is one of the most interesting yet least understood natural phenomena Every fall birds
from northern latitudes fly in groups to the warmer southern latitudes and then return north in the spring Scientists agree on the main reasons for migration: to follow the food supply and to avoid harsh climate conditions For example, insects disappear during the cold months, prompting insect-dependent birds to fly south to warm areas where insects breed No similar consensus has emerged, however, about how birds are able
to navigate Despite many recent experiments, bird experts still do not know how birds arrive at the same destinations every year and then find their way back home in the spring
Some have suggested that birds find their way by following landmarks, such as rivers and mountain
ranges Experiments have confirmed that some species do follow such topographic features But that method cannot explain how some birds travel at night Other studies show that some nocturnal birds navigate by the stars But that explanation cannot explain daytime migration or travel when the skies are cloudy
The most popular explanation currently is that birds are guided by Earth‟s magnetic poles The mechanism by which that works has not yet been proved One theory points to the fact that some birds‟ contain magnetite, a naturally occurring magnetic compound consisting of iron oxide Magnetite has been found in many animals,
including birds With magnets embedded in their brains, birds would be able to sense the magnetic fields of the
North and South Poles
A recent experiment with homing pigeons provided some evidence that magnetite does play a crucial
role in migration Homing pigeons are known to have the ability to return to their homes after being taken
hundreds of miles away Researchers found that they could train homing pigeons to recognize changes in a magnetic field When a surrounding magnetic field was normal, the birds would gather at one end of a cage But
when the field‟s polarity was altered, they hopped to the other end, suggesting that they were directing and
responding to changes in the magnetic field
Another theory has been offered to explain this sensitivity to magnetic poles, a theory that draws upon quantum mechanics, which is the study of how particles move inside an atom It relies on the fact that electrons come in pairs that orbits the nucleus of an atom The two electrons spin in opposite directions, creating two magnets that neutralize each other But when molecules split and react with other molecules to form compounds, the electrons pairs may no longer spin in opposite directions Instead, they may repel each other, as when two north ends of magnets are pressed together The electrons struggle to change direction in order to achieve a stable state in which the two electrons again neutralize each other, giving off no magnetic field

Charles Lindbergh was born in Detroit, Michigan, in 1902 but was raised on a farm in Minnesota, where his father was elected to the U.S Congress in 1907 From then on, he spent his boyhood alternately in Washington, D.C, and Little Falls, Minnesota Because Lindbergh exhibited exceptional mechanical talent, in
1921 he was admitted to the university of Wisconsin to study engineering However the young man was seeking more challenging endeavors, and two years later he became a stunt pilot who performed feats at county fairs
and public assemblies This unusual and dangerous undertaking paid off handsomely in the sense that it
allowed him to gain a diverse and well- rounded experience in aeronautics He particularly delighted in what he called "wing-walking" and parachute jumping
After a year of training as a military cadet, Lindbergh completed his program at the Brooks and Kelly airfields at the top of his class and earned the rank of captain Roberton Aircraft Corporation of St Louis, Missouri, offered him employment as a mail pilot to run the routes between St Louis and Chicago, and Lindbergh retained his position with the company until 1927 During this period, he set out to win the Raymond
B Orteig prize of $ 25,000 to be awarded to the first pilot to fly nonstop from New York to Paris This ambition would irreversibly change his life and accord him a prominent place in the history of aviation
Embarking on the greatest adventure of his time, Lindbergh left Roosevelt Field at 7:52 A.M on May,
20, 1927, and landed at Bourget Field at 5:24 P.M the next day Fearing that he would be unknown when he arrived, Lindbergh carried letters of introduction to dignitaries in Paris, but when his plane came to a stop, he was overwhelmed by tremendous welcoming crowds He was decorated in France, Great Britain, and Belgium, and President Coolidge sent a specially designated cruiser, the Memphis, to bring him back His accomplishments in aeronautics brought him more medals and awards than had ever been received by any other person in private life

When jazz began to lose its reputation as “low-down” music and to gain well-deserved acclaim among
intellectuals, musicians began to feature many instruments previously considered inappropriate for jazz
Whereas before the 1950s, jazz musicians played only eight basic instruments in strict tempo, in this decade they started to improvise on the flute, electric organ, piccolo, accordion, cello, and even bagpipes, with the rhythm section composed for strings or piano Big bands no longer dominated jazz, and most changes emerged from small combos, such as the Dave Brubeck Quartet and the Gerry Mulligan Quartet The Gerry Mulligan Quartet proved that a small, modern band could sound complete without a piano; the rhythm section consisted only of a set of drums and a string bass
Jazz continued to move in new directions during the 1960s Saxophonist and composer Ornette Coleman led a quartet playing “free” jazz that was atonal Pianist Cecil Taylor also conducted similar experiments with music, and John Coltrane included melodies from India in his compositions In the 1970s, musicians blended jazz and rock music into fusion jazz which combined the melodies and the improvisations of jazz with the rhythmic qualities of rock „n‟ roll, with three or five beats to the bar and in other meter The form of jazz music was greatly affected by electric instruments and electronic implements to intensify, distort, or amplify their sounds However, the younger musicians of the time felt compelled to include a steady, swinging rhythm which they saw as a permanent and essential element in great jazz

Most forms of property are concrete and tangible, such as houses, cars, furniture or anything else that is included in one‟s possessions Other forms of property can be intangible and copyright deals with intangible
forms of property Copyright is a legal protection extended to authors of creative works, for example, books,
magazine articles, maps, films, plays, television shows, software, paintings, photographs, music, choreography
in dance and all other forms of intellectual or artistic property
Although the purpose of artistic property is usually public use and enjoyment, copyright establishes the ownership of the creator When a person buys a copyrighted magazine, it belongs to this individual as a tangible object However, the authors of the magazine articles own the research and the writing that went into creating the articles The right to make and sell or give away copies of books or articles belongs to the authors,
publishers, or other individuals or organizations that hold the copyright To copy an entire book or a part of it, permission must be received from the copyright owner, who will most likely expect to be paid
Copyright law distinguishes between different types of intellectual property Music may be played by anyone after it is published However, if it is performed for profit, the performers need to pay a fee, called a royalty A
similar principle applies to performances of songs and plays On the other hand, names, ideas, and book titles
are accepted Ideas do not become copyrighted property until they are published in a book, a painting or a musical work Almost all artistic work created before the 20th century is not copyrighted because it was created before the copyright law was passed
The two common ways of infringing upon the copyright are plagiarism and piracy Plagiarizing the
work of another person means passing it off as one‟s own The word plagiarism is derived from the Latin
plagiarus, which means “abductor” Piracy may be an act of one person, but, in many cases, it is a joint effort of
several people who reproduce copyrighted material and sell it for profit without paying royalties to the creator Technological innovations have made piracy easy and anyone can duplicate a motion picture on videotape, a computer program, or a book Video cassette recorders can be used by practically anyone to copy movies and television programs, and copying software has become almost as easy as copying a book Large companies zealously monitor their copyrights for slogans, advertisements, and brand names, protected by a trademark
Question 41: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A Legal rights of property owners B Legal ownership of creative work
C Examples of copyright piracy D Copying creating work for profit
Bài văn nói về “copyright” (= bản quyền), danh từ này được lặp lại trong tất cả các đoạn Legal ownership of creative work = sự sở hữu theo luật pháp của những tác phẩm trí tuệ
Question 42: The word “extended” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _
A explicated B exposed C guaranteed D granted
