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

Humans have struggled against weeds since the beginnings of agriculture Marring our gardens is one

of the milder effects of weeds - any plants that thrive where they are unwanted They clog waterways,

destroy wildlife habitats, and impede farming Their spread eliminates grazing areas and accounts for one-third of all crop loss They compete for sunlight, nutrients, and water with useful plants

The global need for weed control had been answered mainly by the chemical industry Its herbicides are effective and sometimes necessary, but some pose serious problems, particularly if misused Toxic compounds threaten animal and public health when they accumulate in food plants, groundwater, and drinking water They also harm workers who apply them

In recent years, the chemical industry has introduced several herbicides that are more ecologically sound Yet new chemicals alone cannot solve the world's weed problems Hence, scientists are exploring

the innate weed-killing powers of living organisms, primarily insects and microorganisms

The biological agents now in use are environmentally benign and are harmless to humans They can be chosen for their ability to attack selected targets and leave crops and other plants untouched In contrast, some of the most effective chemicals kill virtually all the plants they come in contact with, sparing only

those that are naturally resistant or have been genetically modified for resistance Furthermore, a number

of biological agents can be administered only once, after which no added applications are needed

Chemicals typically must be used several times per growing season

Question 45: With what topic does this passage primarily deal?

A Advantages of biological agents over chemical ones

B A proposal to ban the use of all herbicides

C The importance of the chemical industry

D The dangers of toxic chemicals

Question 46: The word “marring” in bold is closest in meaning to

Question 47: The word “clog” in bold is closest in meaning to

A weeds B wildlife habitats C grazing area D nutrients

author most likely agree?

C It has become more dangerous recently D It is safe but inefficient

Question 50: Which of the following is NOT given as an advantage of using biological agents over

chemical herbicides?

A They are more easily available

B They are safer for workers

C They do not have to be used as often

D They are less likely to destroy desirable plants

Question 51: The word “innate” in bold is closest in meaning to

Question 52: According to the passage, biological agents mainly consist of _

A insects and microorganisms B weeds

Question 53: The word “applications” in bold could best be replaced by which of the following?

A requests B treatments C qualifications D special purposes

Question 54: Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?

A A recommendation is analyzed and rejected

B Two possible causes of a phenomenon are compared

C A problem is described and possible solutions are discussed

D A general idea is introduced and several specific examples are given

Many ants forage across the countryside in large numbers and undertake mass migrations; these activitiesproceed because one ant lays a trail on the ground for the others to follow As a worker ant returns home

after finding a source of food, it marks the route by intermittently touching its stinger on the ground and

depositing a tiny amount of trail pheromone - a mixture of chemicals that delivers diverse messages asthe context changes These trails incorporate no directional information and may be followed by otherants in either direction

Unlike some other messages, such as the one arising from a dead ant, a food trail has to be kept secret

from members of other species It is not surprising then that ant species use a wide variety of compounds

as trail pheromones Ants can be extremely sensitive to these signals Investigators working with the trailpheromone of the leafcutter ant Attatexana calculated that one milligram of this substance would suffice

to lead a column of ants three times around Earth

The vapor of the evaporating pheromone over the trail guides an ant along the way, and the ant detects

this signal with receptors in its antennae A trail pheromone will evaporate to furnish the highest

concentration of vapor right over the trail, in what is called a vapor space In following the trail, the antmoves to the right and left, oscillating from side to side across the line of the trail itself, bringing first oneand then the other antenna into the vapor space As the ant moves to the right, its left antenna arrives in

Trang 13

the vapor space The signal it receives causes it to swing to the left, and the ant then pursues this newcourse until its right antenna reaches the vapor space It then swings back to the right, and so weaves backand forth down the trail.

A The mass migration of ants B The information contained in pheromones

C Different species of ants around the world D How ants mark and follow a chemical trail

Câu 47: The word "intermittently" is closest in meaning to

Câu 49: According to the passage, why do ants use different compounds as trail pheromones?

A To protect their trail from other species B To attract different types of ants.

C To indicate how far away the food is D To reduce their sensitivity to some chemicals Câu 50: The author mentions the trail pheromone of the leafcutter ant in the second paragraph to point

out

A that certain ants can produce up to one milligram of pheromone

B how little pheromone is needed to mark a trail

C a type of ant that is common in many parts of the world

D the different types of pheromones ants can produce

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

A Knowledge acquisition outside the classroom

B Knowledge acquisition and ability development

C Acquisition of academic knowledge

C the situations in which people cannot teach themselves

D the ways people’s lives are influenced by education

Question 4: Which of the following can be inferred about the learning process from the passage?

A It becomes less challenging and complicated when people grow older

B It takes place more frequently in real life than in academic institutions

C It is more interesting and effective in school than that in life

D It plays a crucial part in improving the learner’s motivation in school

A the great influence of the on-going learning process

B the need for certain experiences in various areas

C the influence of various behaviours in the learning process

D the exploration of the best teaching methods

Question 6: It can be inferred from the passage that social workers, employers, and politicians

concern themselves with the study of learning because they need to _

A change the behaviours of the objects of their interest towards learning

B make the objects of their interest more aware of the importance of learning

C thoroughly understand the behaviours of the objects of their interest

D understand how a stimulus relates to the senses of the objects of their interest

Question 7: The word “retrieves ” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _

Question 8: Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A Psychologists are all interested in memory as much as behaviours

B Psychologists studying memory are concerned with how the stored knowledge is used

C Psychologists studying learning are interested in human behaviours

D Psychologists studying memory are concerned with the brain’s storage of knowledge

Question 9: According to the passage, the stimulus in simple forms of learning _

Question 10: The passage mainly discusses _

A practical examples of learning inside the classroom

B application of learning principles to formal education

C general principles of learning

D simple forms of learning

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

In the West, cartoons are used chiefly to make people laugh The important feature of all these cartoons is the joke and the element of surprise which is contained Even though it is very funny, a good cartoon is always based on close observation of a particular feature of life and usually has a serious purpose

Cartoons in the West have been associated with political and social matters for many years In wartime, for example, they proved to be an excellent way of spreading propaganda Nowadays cartoons are often used to make short, sharp comments on politics and governments as well as on a variety of social matters In this way, the modern cartoon has become a very powerful force in influencing people in Europe and the United States

Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese cartoon drawings in the past have also attempted to educate people, especially those who could not read and write Such cartoons about the lives and sayings of great men in China have proved extremely useful in bringing education

to illiterate and semi-literate people throughout China Confucius, Mencius and Laozi have all appeared in very interesting stories presented in the form of cartoons The cartoons themselves have thus served to illustrate the teachings of the Chinese sages in a very attractive way

In this sense, many Chinese cartoons are different from Western cartoons in so far as they do not depend chiefly on telling jokes Often, there is nothing to laugh at when you see Chinese cartoons

This is not their primary aim In addition to commenting on serious political and social matters,

Chinese cartoons have aimed at spreading the traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely as possible among the people

Today, however, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading knowledge They offer a very attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout the world, regardless of the particular country in which they live Thus, through cartoons, the thoughts and teachings of the old Chinese philosophers and sages can now reach people who live in such countries as Britain, France, America, Japan, Malaysia or Australia and who are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture

Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly from the West to the East and not vice versa By means of cartoons, however, publishing companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong

and Singapore are now having success in correcting this imbalance between the East and the West

Cartoons can overcome language barriers in all foreign countries The vast increase in the popularity

of these cartoons serves to illustrate the truth of Confucius’s famous saying “One picture is worth a thousand words.”

As the twentieth century began, the importance of formal education in the United States increased.The frontier had mostly disappeared and by 1910 most Americans lived in towns and cities Industrializationand the bureaucratization of economic life combined with a new emphasis upon credentials and expertise tomake schooling increasingly important for economic and social mobility Increasingly, too, schools were

viewed as the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society.

The arrival of a great wave of southern and eastern European immigrants at the turn of the

Trang 38

century coincided with and contributed to an enormous expansion of formal schooling By 1920 schooling

to age fourteen or beyond was compulsory in most states, and the school year was greatly lengthened

Kindergartens, vacation schools, extracurricular activities, and vocational education and counseling

extended the influence of public schools over the lives of students, many of whom in the larger industrialcities were the children of immigrants Classes for adult immigrants were sponsored by public schools,corporations, unions, churches, settlement houses, and other agencies

Reformers early in the twentieth century suggested that education programs should suit the needs ofspecific populations Immigrant women were once such population Schools tried to educate young women

so they could occupy productive places in the urban industrial economy, and one place many educatorsconsidered appropriate for women was the home

Although looking after the house and family was familiar to immigrant women, American educationgave homemaking a new definition In preindustrial economies, homemaking had meant the production as

well as the consumption of goods, and it commonly included income-producing activities both inside and

outside the home, in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States, however,overproduction rather than scarcity was becoming a problem Thus, the ideal American homemaker wasviewed as a consumer rather than a producer Schools trained women to be consumer homemakers cooking,shopping, decorating, and caring for children “efficiently” in their own homes, or if economic necessitydemanded, as employees in the homes of others Subsequent reforms have made these notions seem quiteout-of-date

A the industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life the United States in the nineteen century

B the formal schooling in the United States in the nineteen century C the urbanization in the UnitedStates in the nineteen century

D the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society in the nineteen century

Question 36: It can be inferred from paragraph 1 that one important factor in the increasing importance of

education in the United States was _

A the increased urbanization of the entire country

B an increase in the number of trained teachers

C the growing number of schools in frontier communities

D the expanding economic problems of schools

Question 37: The word “means” in bold type is closest in meaning to _.
