One of the most delightful places in China is a small island called Gulangyu It is often called

While Gulangyu is a popular day trip for people from the neighbouring island of Xiamen, it

travel, via Xiamen airport, is a possibility, but it is too expensive for the majority of visitors

It seems that the mystery of why the Pyramids were built may have solved Until quite recently people got used to think that they were just tombs for pharaohs Instead, the connection with astronomy seems much more important Egyptologists have often asked themselves how long it spent
to build them and why people built them in the first place Experts came up with a suggestion that the Egyptians may have believed that the River Nile was the earthly equivalent of the Milky Way Many agree that the size of the three Giza Pyramids are in proportion to the three stars of Orion Nothing, then, was by the chance Rather, the souls of dead pharaohs were deliberately being projected through shafts
to reach their goal of the Orion constellation

PART D READING
Section 1 Read the following extract and choose the option (A, B, C or D) which best answers each of the following questions
The term "folk song" has been current for over a hundred years, but there is still a good deal
of disagreement as to what it actually means The definition provided by the International Folk Music Council states that folk music is the music of ordinary people, which is passed on from person to person by being listened to rather than learned from the printed page Other factors that help shape
a folk song include: continuity (many performances over a number of years); variation (changes in words and melodies either through artistic interpretation or failure of memory); and selection (the
acceptance of a song by the community in which it evolves)
When songs have been subjected to these processes their origin is usually impossible to trace
For instance, if a farm laborer were to make up a song and sing it to a couple of friends who like it and memorize it, possibly when the friends come to sing it themselves one of them might forget some
of the words and make up new ones to fill the gap, while the other, perhaps more artistic, might add a few decorative touches to the tune and improve a couple of lines of text If this happened a few times, there would be many different versions, the song's original composer would be forgotten, and the
song would become common property This constant reshaping and recreation is the essence of folk
music Consequently, modern popular songs and other published music, even though widely sung by people who are not professional musicians, are not considered folk music
Trang 4The music and words have been set by a printed or recorded source, limiting scope for further artistic creation These songs' origins cannot be disguised and therefore they belong primarily to the composer and not to a community
The ideal situation for the creation of folk music is an isolated rural community In such a setting folk songs and dances have a special purpose at every stage in a person's life, from childhood
to death Epic tales of heroic deeds, seasonal songs relating to calendar events, and occupational songs are also likely to be sung
1 What does the passage mainly discuss?
A Themes commonly found in folk music
B Elements that define folk music
C Influences of folk music on popular music
D The standards of the International Folk Music Council

4 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a characteristic of the typical folk song?
A It is constantly changing over time
B It is passed on to other people by being performed
C It contains complex musical structures

5 The word "subjected" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _
A reduced B modified C exposed D imitated
6 The author mentions the farm laborer and his friends in order to _
A explain how a folk song evolves over time
B illustrate the importance of music to rural workers
C show how subject matter is selected for a folk song
D demonstrate how a community chooses a folk song
7 According to the passage, why would the original composers of folk songs be forgotten?
A Audience prefers songs composed by professional musicians
B Singers dislike the decorative touches in folk song tunes
C Numerous variations of folk songs come to exist at the same time
D Folk songs are not considered an important form of music
8 The word "essence" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to
A basic nature B first phase C full extent D growing importance
9 The author mentions that published music is not considered folk music because
A the original composer can be easily identified
B the songs attract only the young people in a community
