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 from 36 to 42

Many ants forage across the countryside in large numbers and undertake mass migrations;

these activities proceed 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 as the context changes These trails incorporate no directional information and may be followed by other ants 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

Trang 5

_

Investigators working with the trail pheromone of the leafcutter ant Atta texana 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 ant moves to the right and left, oscillating from side to side across the

line of the trail itself, bringing first one and then the other antenna into the vapor space As the ant moves to the right, its left antenna arrives in the vapor space The signal it receives causes it

to swing to the left, and the ant then pursues this new course until its right antenna reaches the vapor space It then swings back to the right, and so weaves back and forth down the trail

Question 36: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The mass migration of ants

B How ants mark and follow a chemical trail

C Different species of ants around the world

Question 40: According to the passage, how are ants guided by trail

pheromones?

A They concentrate on the smell of food

B They follow an ant which is familiar with the trail

C They avoid the vapor spaces by moving in a straight line

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 from 43 to 50

Scientists do not yet thoroughly understand just how the body of an individual becomes sensitive to a substance that is harmless or even wholesome for the average person Milk, wheat, and egg, for example, rank among the most healthful and widely used foods Yet these foods can cause persons sensitive to them to suffer greatly At first, the body of the individual is not harmed by coming into contact with the substance After a varying interval of time, usually longer than a few weeks, the body becomes sensitive to it, and an allergy has begun to develop Sometimes it’s hard to figure out if you have a food allergy, since it can show up in so many different ways Your symptoms could be caused by many other problems You may have rashes, hives, joint pains mimicking arthritis, headaches, irritability, or depression The most common food allergies are to milk, eggs, seafood, wheat, nuts, seeds, chocolate, oranges, and tomatoes Many of these allergies will not develop if these foods are not fed to an infant until her or his intestines mature at around seven months Breast milk also tends to be protective

Migraines can be set off by foods containing tyramine, phenathylamnine, monosodium

glutamate, or sodium nitrate Common foods which contain these are chocolate, aged cheeses, sour cream, red wine, pickled herring, chicken livers, avocados, ripe bananas, cured meats, many Oriental and prepared foods (read the labels!) Some people have been successful in treating their migraines with supplements of B-vitamins, particularly B6 and niacin Children who are hyperactive may benefit from eliminating food additives, especially, colorings, and

foods high in salicylates from their diets A few of these are almonds, green peppers, peaches,

tea, grapes This is the diet made popular by Benjamin Feingold, who has written the book “Why your child is Hyperactive.” Other researchers have had mixed results when testing whether the diet is effective

Question 43: The topic of the passage is

A reactions to foods B food and nutrition C infants and allergies D a good diet Question 44: According to the passage, the difficulty in diagnosing allergies to foods is due to

A the vast number of different foods we eat

B the similarity of symptoms of the allergies to other problems

C lack of a proper treatment plan

D the use of prepared formula to feed babies

Question 45: The phrase “set off” is closest in meaning to

Trang 7

_

A relieved B identified C avoided D triggered

Question 46: What can be inferred about babies from this passage?

A They can eat almost anything

B They should have a carefully restricted diet as infants

C They gain little benefit from being breast fed

D They may become hyperactive if fed solid food too early

Question 47: The author states that the reason that infants need to avoid certain foods related to

Carbon dating can be used to estimate the age of any organic natural material; it has been used

successfully in archeology to determine the age of ancient artifacts or fossils as well as in a variety of other

fields The principle underlying the use of carbon dating is that carbon is a part of all living things on Earth.

Since a radioactive substance such as carbon-14 has a known half-life, the amount of carbon-14 remaining in an object can be used to date that object.

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,570 years, which means that after that number of years, half of the carbon-14 atoms have decayed into nitrogen-14 It is the ratio of carbon-14 in that substance that indicates the age of the substance If, for example, in a particular sample the amount of carbon-14 is roughly equivalent to the amount of nitrogen-14, this indicates that around half of the carbon-14 has decayed into nitrogen-14, and the sample is approximately 5,570 years old.

Carbon dating cannot be used effectively in dating objects that are older than 80,000 years When objects are that old, much of the carbon-14 has already decayed into nitrogen-14, and the miniscule amount that is left doesn’t provide a reliable measurement of age In the case of older objects, other age-dating methods are available, methods which use radioactive atoms with longer half-lives than carbon has.

Question 36: This passage is mainly about .

A the differences between carbon-14 and nitrogen-14

B one method of dating old objects

C archeology and the study of ancient artifacts

D various uses for carbon

Question 37: The word “it” refers to .

Question 38: Which of the following is NOT true about carbon-14?

A It is radioactive.

B Its half-life is more than 5,000 years.

C It can decay into nitrogen-14.

D It and nitrogen always exist in equal amounts in any substance.

Question 39: The word “underlying” could best be replaced by .

C being studied through D serving as a basis for

Question 40: It can be inferred from the passage that if an item contains more carbon-14 than nitrogen-14,

Trang 11

A too old to be age-dated with carbon-14 B not as much as 5,570 years old

C too radioactive to be usedby archeologists D more than 5.570 years old

Question 41: It is implied in the passage that .

A carbon dating could not be used on an item containing nitrogen

B fossils cannot be age-dated using carbon-14

C carbon-14 does not have the longest known half-life

D carbon dating has no known uses outside of archeology

Question 42: The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses .

A how carbon-14 decay intonitrogen-14

B various other age-dating methods

C why carbon-14 has such a long half-life

D what substances are part of all living things

Fish that live on the sea bottom benefit by being flat and hugging the contours There are

two very different types of flatfish and they have evolved in very separate ways The skates andrays, relatives of the sharks, have become flat in what might be called the obvious way Theirbodies have grown out sideways to form great “wings” They look as though they have beenflattened but have remained symmetrical and “the right way up” Conversely, fish such as plaice,sole, and halibut have become flat in a different way There are bony fish which have a markedtendency to be flattened in a vertical direction; they are much “taller” than they are wide Theyuse their whole, vertically flattened bodies as swimming surfaces, which undulate through thewater as they move Therefore, when their ancestors migrated to the seabed, they lay on one side

than on their bellies However, this raises the problem that one eye was always looking down

into the sand and was effectively useless In evolution this problem was solved by the lowereye “moving” around the other side We see this process of moving around enacted in thedevelopment of every young bony flatfish It starts life swimming near the surface, and issymmetrical and vertically flattened, but then the skull starts to grow in a strange asymmetricaltwisted fashion, so that one eye, for instance the left, moves over the top of the head upwards,

an old Picasso - like vision Incidentally, some species of 20 flatfish settle on the right side,others on the left, and others on either side

Urban trees are especially important because for many people they provide the only daily contact with the natural world What’s more, urban trees also provide a home for birds, small animals and

Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct or have neared extinction has increased Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300 By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in

material gain but in personal gratification This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to

the problem of extinction Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem International laws protecting these animals must be enacted

to ensure their survival – and the survival of our planet

Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways Some countries,

in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves They

then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also

depend on world organizations for support This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols

to protect the animals Another solution that is an attempt to stem the tide of animal extinction is an

international boycott of products made from endangered species This has had some effect, but it will not, by itself, prevent animals from being hunted and killed

Question 36: What is the main topic of the passage?

A Endangered species B Problems with industrialization

C The Bengal tiger D International boycotts

Question 37: The word “callousness” could be best replaced by which of the following?

C insensitivity D independence

Question 38: The passage is divided into two paragraphs in order to contrast _

Trang 25

A a comparison and a contrast B a problem and a solution

C a statement and an illustration D specific and general information

Question 39: What does the word “this” in the first paragraph refer to in the passage?

A Bengal tiger B Interest in material gain

C Killing animals for personal satisfaction D The decrease in the Bengal tiger population

Question 40: The word “defray” is closest in meaning to which of the following?

A make a payment on B raise

Question 41: The author uses the phrase “stem the tide” in the second paragraph to mean _

RACES AND THEIR GENETIC DIFFERENCES

Genetics is the study of hereditary characteristics that are passed down from one generation of living organisms to another Although farmers have used selective breeding to improve the resilience

of crops and animals, it wasn't until the mid-1800s that Gregor Mendel started the science of genetics

as we know it today Following Mendel's methods, scientists have discovered "chromosomes" and

"DNA" With the ability to study DNA, scientists were able to study the genetic differences between races

Modern genetics discovered that all humans are descendants of "Mitochondrial Eve," a woman who lived over 150,000 years ago in Africa Since the first humans were born, over 75,000 generations have passed, and many subtle differences are now evident Humans share at least 99% of their genetic makeup A 1% difference may not seem like much, but when you consider that a chimpanzee shares 98% of human genes, you realize how much a 1% difference makes!

Africans are more closely related to Europeans than any other two groups, despite the fact that they differ so much in appearance The biggest genetic differences are found between Africans and the native populations of North America (22%) However, it is essential to note that the genetic differences between people of the same race are much greater than the differences between people of different races This means that the argument which claims that genetic differences make one race

superior to another is nothing but a tall story

The differences in various populations may also be the result of circumstances rather than genetic makeup Factors such as climate, diet, health care, education, and employment as well as other

Trang 26

socioeconomic factors are all influential However, there are some traits which are genetic; for example, there is a much higher incidence of sickle- cell anemia among black populations than any other population group Adult African-Americans and Latinos have twice as many cases of diabetes than Caucasians In the U.S., Latinos suffer more deaths from liver disease than other races Europeans suffer more from heart disease and cancer

Genes not only affect our susceptibility to disease, they also affect our physical attributes The Dinka people from the Sudan are considered to be the tallest people with men having an average height

of 6ft 3in., while women hit the big time with an impressive 5ft 3in This contrasts sharply with the Pygmy tribes who get the short end of the stick at only about 4ft 11in tall

Genetic differences may help us to tailor health services to people of different races or to detect life threatening diseases early However, they are not significant enough to support the claim that one race is superior to another In fact, our modern scientific understanding of human genetic diversity flies in the face of almost all our social stereotypes

Question 43: What is genetics?

A The study of old people B The study of muscles in your body

C The study of inherited characteristics D The study of human’s characteristics

Question 44: Why do farmers practice selective farming?

A To make animals and crops more resilient

B They only want to grow one crop

C They want to increase the number of farmers

D To make crops tastier

Question 45: What were scientists able to discover using Mendel's methods?

C Genetic differences D (A) and (B) are correct

Question 46: What does the phrase “a tall story” mean?

Question 47: Where do the greatest genetic differences occur?

A Between people of different races

B Between Europeans and Africans

C Between people of the same race

D Between Asians and Africans

Question 48: What two factors contribute to the differences between races?

A Genetics and socioeconomic factors

B Genetics and access to health care

C Access to health care and socioeconomic factors

D Genetic makeup and circumstances

Trang 27

Question 49: Which diseases are African-Americans more likely to get?

A Diabetes and liver disease

B Sickle-cell anemia and diabetes

C Cancer and sickle-cell anemia

D Cancer and heart disease

Question 50: What is the author saying in the last paragraph?

A Races differ a lot in their genetic makeup

B Genetic differences aren’t significant between races

C All races are descendants of the same woman

D Genetic makeup affects people’s physical attributes

BÀI DỊCH Question 31-35

Cây là một trong những vật thể sống lớn nhất và lâu đời nhất trên trái đất, một vài loài cây còn có lâu hơn cả những tòa nhà cổ nhất Nhưng ngoài việc là những thứ rất dễ chịu khi nhìn vào, cây cũng đóng vai trò quan trọng trong việc cải thiện chất lượng cuộc sống của chúng ta

Trên phạm vi toàn cầu, rừng giúp làm chậm lại hiệu ứng của hiện tượng nóng lên toàn cầu bằng cách dùng khí thải được biết tới là carbon dioxide và nhả ra khí ô-xi mà chúng ta cần để thở Ở mức độ địa phương, cây cũng mang lại những ích lợi môi trường quan trọng Chúng cho bóng râm và là nơi che chở, giúp làm giảm năng lượng cần thiết để làm ấm hay làm mát các tòa nhà gần đó; đồng thời, chúng cũng loại bỏ những chất bẩn trong không khí mà chúng ta hít thở

Cây xanh đô thị đặc biệt quan trọng vì đối với nhiều người chúng là mối liên hệ hàng ngày duy nhất với thế giới tự nhiên Hơn nữa, cây xanh đô thị là chỗ trú ẩn cho him, động vật nhỏ và bướm Thiếu cây xanh chúng ta có thể mất thi niềm vui thích khi thấy những sinh vật bé nhỏ trong thành phố của mình Mặc dù vậy nhưng đáng tiếc là cây xanh trong thành phố giờ đây đang

bị đe dọa Chúng chỉ chịu đựng được sự ô nhiễm đến một giới hạn nhất định, và, dưới lòng đất, rễ của chúng đang bị “làm phiền” một cách nghiêm trọng bởi việc đào bới để làm đường dây điện thoại, ti-vi và các loại cáp khác

sự sinh tồn của chúng, và sự sống còn của hành tinh của chúng ta

Các quốc gia trên toàn thế giới đã bắt đầu đối phó với vấn đề này theo nhiều cách Một vài quốc gia, để hạn chế vấn đề, đã phân bổ một diện tích lớn đất đai cho khu bảo tồn động vật Sau đó họ tính phí vào cửa để giúp chi trả chi phí bảo trì công viên, và họ cũng thường phải phụ thuộc vào những tổ chức quốc để để nhận sự hỗ trợ Với số tiền nhận được, họ có thể đầu tư trang thiết bị và đội tuần tra để bảo vệ động vật Một giải pháp khác mà là một cố gắng để dừng việc động vật bị tuyệt chủng sự tẩy chay quốc tế với những sản phẩm được làm từ các loài động vật sắp tuyệt chủng Việc làm này có vẻ khá hiệu quả, nhưng một mình nó thì không thể ngăn động vật khỏi sự săn bắt và giết hại

B Những vấn đề với công nghiệp hóa

C Loài hổ Bengal

D Tẩy chay quốc tế

Trang 35

D sự độc lập

*callousness (N) sự nhẫn tâm  Đáp án C là phù hợp nhất

38 B a problem and a solution

Văn bản được chia ra làm hai phần để đối chiếu _

A so sánh và tương phản

B vấn đề và giải pháp

C một lời tuyên bố và minh họa

D thông tin chi tiết và chung chung

*Đoạn 1 tác giả nêu ra vấn đề mà các loài động vật thiểu số đang gặp phải là chúng đã hoặc đang tuyệt chủng (xem câu 1 đoạn 1) Đoạn 2 tác giả nêu ra một số giải pháp đang được áp dụng để giải quyết vấn đề này (xem câu 1 đoạn 2)

39 C killing animals for personal satisfaction

Từ “this” trong đoạn 1 chỉ _

BÀI DỊCH Question 43-50 CHỦNG TỘC VÀ SỰ KHÁC BIỆT TRONG GEN

Di truyền học nghiên cứu về các đặc tính di truyền mà được truyền lại từ một thế hệ sinh vật sống đến thế hệ sau Mặc dù nông dân đã sử dụng cách gây giống có chọn lọc để cải thiện khả năng chống chọi của mùa màng và vật nuôi, cho đến giữa những năm 1800 Gregor Mendel mới bắt đầu môn khoa học của di truyền học mà chúng ta biết như ngày nay Tiếp thu những phương pháp của Mendel, các nhà khoa học đã phát hiện ra "chromosomes" và "DNA" Với khả năng nghiên cứu về DNA, các nhà khoa học có thể nghiên cứu về những khác biệt về gen giữa các chủng tộc

Di truyền học hiện đại khám phá ra rằng tất cả con người đều là hậu duệ của

"Mitochondrial Eve", một người phụ nữ mà sống hơn 150.000 năm trước ở châu Phi Kể từ khi con người đầu tiên được sinh ra, đã qua hơn 75.000 thế hệ và rất nhiều những khác biệt tinh vi bây giờ đã hiện rõ Loài người chia sẻ với nhau ít nhất 99% cấu tạo gen của mình Và 1% khác biệt nghe có vẻ không nhiều, nhưng khi bạn cân nhắc việc một con tinh tinh có 98% gen của con người, bạn sẽ nhận ra 1% tạo khác biệt lớn đến bao nhiêu!

Trang 37

Người châu Phi giống người châu Âu hơn bất kỳ chủng tộc nào trong hai chủng tộc còn lại, bất kể sự thực là họ rất khác biệt về hình thức Sự khác biệt di truyền lớn nhất được tìm thấy giữa những người châu Phi và dân số bản địa Bắc Mỹ (22%) Tuy nhiên, có một điều quan trọng phải để ý là sự khác biệt về di truyền giữa hai người trong cùng một chủng tộc lại lớn hơn sự khác biệt giữa hai người của chủng tộc khác nhau Điều này có nghĩa là lý lẽ tuyên bố rằng khác biệt trong di truyền khiến cho một chủng tộc thượng đẳng hơn một chủng tộc khác chẳng khác nào một điều khó tin

Những điểm khác biệt trong dân cư ở nhiều nơi cũng có thể là hệ quả của hoàn cảnh hơn

là cấu trúc gen Những yếu tố như khí hậu, chế độ ăn, chăm sóc sức khoẻ, giáo dục và việc làm cũng như những yếu tố kinh tế xã hội khác tất cả đều có ảnh hưởng Tuy nhiên có vài đặc điểm thuộc về gen; ví dụ người da đen mắc bệnh hồng cầu hình liềm cao hơn tất cả Người Mỹ gốc Phi trưởng thành và Latinos mắc tiểu đường gấp đôi số người Caucasian Ở Hoa Kỳ, người Latin chết

vì bệnh gan nhiều hơn những chùng tộc khác Người châu Âu mắc bệnh tim và ung thư nhiều hơn

Gen không chỉ gây ảnh hưởng đến độ "nhạy" với bệnh tật của chúng ta mà còn ảnh hưởng đến thuộc tính thể chất của chúng ta Người Dinka ở Sudan được cho là tộc người cao nhất với chiều cao trung bình của đàn ông là 6ft3in, trong khi đó phụ nữ tự hào với con số 5ft3in ấn tượng Điều này tương phản rõ rệt với các bộ lạc Pygmy mà chỉ cao có 4ft11

Sự khác biệt về gen có thể giúp chúng ta theo dõi dịch vụ sức khoẻ đến người của mọi chủng tộc hoặc để phát hiện sớm bệnh nguy hiểm đến tính mạng Tuy nhiên, chúng không đủ tính quyết định để ủng hộ ý kiến cho rằng một chủng tộc này thượng đẳng hơn chủng tộc khác Thực ra, hiểu biết khoa học hiện đại của chúng ta về đa dạng gen của loài người đi ngược lại những khuôn mẫu xã hội của chúng ta
