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 31 to 37.

The Earth comprises three principal layers: the dense, iron-rich core, the mantle made of silicate rocks that are semimolten

at depth, and the thin, solid-surface crust There are two kinds of crust, a lower and denser oceanic dust and an upper, lightercontinental crust found over only about 40 percent of the Earth's surface The rocks of the crust are of very different ages.Some continental rocks are over 3,000 million years old, while those of the ocean floor are less than 200 million years old.The crusts and the top, solid part of the mantle, totaling about 70 to 100 kilometres in thickness, at present appear to consist

of about 15 rigid plates, 7 of which are very large These plates move over the semimolten lower mantle to produce all of the

major topographical features of the Earth Active zones where intense deformation occurs are confined to the narrow,

interconnecting boundaries of contact of the plates

There are three main types of zones of contact: spreading contacts where plates move apart, converging contacts whereplates move towards each other, and transforming contacts where plates slide past each other New oceanic crust is formedalong one or more margins of each plate by material issuing from deeper layers of the Earth's crust, for example, by volcaniceruptions of lava at mid-ocean ridges If at such a spreading contact the two plates support continents, a rift is formed that willgradually widen and become flooded by the sea The Atlantic Ocean formed like this as the American and Afro-Europeanplates moved in opposite directions At the same time a margins of converging plates, the oceanic crust is icing re-absorbed

by being subducted into the mantle and remelted beneath the ocean trenches When two plates carrying continents collide, the

continental blocks, too light to be drawn down, continue to float and therefore buckle to form a mountain chain along the

length of the margin of the plates

Question 31: According to the passage, mountain ranges are formed when

C continental plates collide D two plates separate

Question 32: The word "comprises" in line 1 is closest in meaning to

Trang 3

Question 33: Where in the passage does the author describe how oceans are formed?

A The second half of paragraph 2 B The second half of paragraph 1.

C The first half of paragraph 1 D The middle of paragraph 2.

Question 34: What does the second paragraph of the passage mainly discuss?

A Processes that create the Earth's surface features B The major mountain chains of the Earth.

C The rates at which continents move D The composition of the ocean floors.

Question 35: The word "intense" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to

Question 36: The word "buckle" in the last sentence is closest in meaning to

Question 37: We can infer from the passage that

A a rift is formed by transforming contacts

B the Atlantic Ocean was formed by converging contacts

C continental rocks are far older than the oceanic ones

D the Earth’s crust comprises three principal layers

Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the underlined part that needs correction in each of the following questions.

Question 42: A live programme helps us see the events at the same time as they are happening.

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 43 to 50.

Until recently, the ‘science of the future’ was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence Today it seems more and

more likely that the next breakthrough in technology will be brought about through a combination of those two sciences with

organic chemistry and genetic engineering This science is the combination of biotechnology

Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials However, it is still difficult to manufacture anythingthat has the capacity of wool to conserve heat and also to absorb moisture Nothing that we have been able to produce so farcomes anywhere near the combination of strength, lightness, and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in 'growing' a material that has many of the characteristics of

human skin The next step may well be 'biotech heart and eyes’ which can replace diseased organs in human beings These

will not be rejected by the body, as in the case with organs from humans

The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising In 1996, the famous science-fictionwriter Arthur C Clarke, many of whose previous predictions have come true, said that we may soon be able to developremarkably cheap and renewable sources of energy Some of these power sources will be biological Clarke and others havewarned us repeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable power sources Coal, oiland gas are indeed convenient However, using them also means creating dangerously high levels of pollution It will be

impossible to meet the growing demand for energy without increasing that pollution to catastrophic levels unless we develop

power sources that are both cheaper and cleaner

Question 43: According to the text, the science of the future is likely to be?

A Electronics B Genetic engineering C Biotechnology D Nuclear technology Question 44: The word “These” refers to

A human beings B characteristics of human skin

C biotech heart and eyes D diseased organs

Question 45: What does the text say is one of the worst problems caused by the use of coal, gas, and oil?

A They are so cheap that people waste them.

B They are too expensive for poorer people in many parts of the world.

C They are very bad for the world around us.

D They are no longer as easy to use as they once were.

Question 46: Which word below can be the best substitute for“breakthrough”?

Question 47: Organic chemistry helps to produce materials that are

A almost as good as woolB not as good as natural materials

C stronger, lighter, and better than natural materials D almost as strong, light, and flexible as an insect’s body Question 48: According to the text, it may soon be possible

Trang 4

A to make useful substitutes for human hearts and eyes

B to take an organ from one human and give it to another human

C to cure certain diseases that damage human organs

D to make something as good as human skin

Question 49: In 1996, Arthur C Clarke predicted

A new and better ways of heating and lighting homes, offices, and factories

B newer and better ways of using oil, gas, and coal

C that we may not be able to meet future demand for energy

D that using oil, gas, and coal would lead to very high levels of pollution

Question 50: The word “to meet” is synonymous with

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 22 to 29.

Until recently, the ‘science of the future’ was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence Today it seems more and

more likely that the next breakthrough in technology will be brought about through a combination of those two sciences with

organic chemistry and genetic engineering This science is the combination of biotechnology

Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials However, it is still difficult to manufacture anythingthat has the capacity of wool to conserve heat and also to absorb moisture Nothing that we have been able to produce so farcomes anywhere near the combination of strength, lightness, and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in 'growing' a material that has many of the characteristics of

human skin The next step may well be 'biotech heart and eyes’ which can replace diseased organs in human beings These

will not be rejected by the body, as in the case with organs from humans

The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising In 1996, the famous science-fictionwriter Arthur C Clarke, many of whose previous predictions have come true, said that we may soon be able to developremarkably cheap and renewable sources of energy Some of these power sources will be biological Clarke and others havewarned us repeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable power sources Coal, oiland gas are indeed convenient However, using them also means creating dangerously high levels of pollution It will be

impossible to meet the growing demand for energy without increasing that pollution to catastrophic levels unless we develop

power sources that are both cheaper and cleaner

Question 22: Which word below can be the best substitute for“breakthrough”?

Question 23: In 1996, Arthur C Clarke predicted

A newer and better ways of using oil, gas, and coal

B new and better ways of heating and lighting homes, offices, and factories

C that using oil, gas, and coal would lead to very high levels of pollution

D that we may not be able to meet future demand for energy

Question 24: According to the text, it may soon be possible

A to take an organ from one human and give it to another human

B to make useful substitutes for human hearts and eyes

C to make something as good as human skin

D to cure certain diseases that damage human organs

Question 25: Organic chemistry helps to produce materials that are

A almost as good as wool B almost as strong, light, and flexible as an insect’s body

C not as good as natural materials D stronger, lighter, and better than natural materials

Question 26: What does the text say is one of the worst problems caused by the use of coal, gas, and oil?

A They are no longer as easy to use as they once were.

B They are so cheap that people waste them.

C They are very bad for the world around us.

D They are too expensive for poorer people in many parts of the world.

Question 27: The word “to meet” is synonymous with

Question 28: The word “These” refers to

A characteristics of human skin B diseased organs

Question 29: According to the text, the science of the future is likely to be?

A Genetic engineering B Electronics C Nuclear technology D Biotechnology

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 42 to 50.

The Earth comprises three principal layers: the dense, iron-rich core, the mantle made of silicate rocks that are semimolten

at depth, and the thin, solid-surface crust There are two kinds of crust, a lower and denser oceanic dust and an upper, lightercontinental crust found over only about 40 percent of the Earth's surface The rocks of the crust are of very different ages.Some continental rocks are over 3,000 million years old, while those of the ocean floor are less than 200 million years old.The crusts and the top, solid part of the mantle, totaling about 70 to 100 kilometres in thickness, at present appear to consist

of about 15 rigid plates, 7 of which are very large These plates move over the semimolten lower mantle to produce all of the

major topographical features of the Earth Active zones where intense deformation occurs are confined to the narrow,

interconnecting boundaries of contact of the plates

There are three main types of zones of contact: spreading contacts where plates move apart, converging contacts whereplates move towards each other, and transforming contacts where plates slide past each other New oceanic crust is formedalong one or more margins of each plate by material issuing from deeper layers of the Earth's crust, for example, by volcaniceruptions of lava at mid-ocean ridges If at such a spreading contact the two plates support continents, a rift is formed that willgradually widen and become flooded by the sea The Atlantic Ocean formed like this as the American and Afro-Europeanplates moved in opposite directions At the same time a margins of converging plates, the oceanic crust is icing re-absorbed

by being subducted into the mantle and remelted beneath the ocean trenches When two plates carrying continents collide, the

continental blocks, too light to be drawn down, continue to float and therefore buckle to form a mountain chain along the

length of the margin of the plates

Question 42: According to the passage, mountain ranges are formed when

A continental plates collide B a rift is flooded

Question 43: We can infer from the passage that

A the Earth’s crust comprises three principal layers

B a rift is formed by transforming contacts

C continental rocks are far older than the oceanic ones

D the Atlantic Ocean was formed by converging contacts

Question 44: The word "intense" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to

Question 45: What does the second paragraph of the passage mainly discuss?

A The major mountain chains of the Earth B Processes that create the Earth's surface features.

C The rates at which continents move D The composition of the ocean floors.

Question 46: The word "buckle" in the last sentence is closest in meaning to

Question 47: Where in the passage does the author describe how oceans are formed?

A The second half of paragraph 1 B The first half of paragraph 1.

C The middle of paragraph 2 D The second half of paragraph 2.

Question 48: The word "comprises" in line 1 is closest in meaning to
