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
Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effects of global warming Scientists have already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in the spring Many species have begun shifting where they live or their annual migration patterns due to warmer temperatures
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higher elevations Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges, seeking new areas as old habitats grow too warm In many places, however, human development will prevent these shifts Species that find cities or farmland blocking their way north or south may become extinct Species living in unique
ecosystems, such as those found in polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk because
migration to new habitats is not possible For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the
Arctic are already threatened by dwindling sea ice but have nowhere farther north to go
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult Some scientists have estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3 Celsius degrees of further warming The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is extremely important for plants and animals Some species and even entire ecosystems, such as certain types of forest, may not
be able to adjust quickly enough and may disappear
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global warming
Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach”, a state which if prolonged will lead to the death of the coral Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming could lead to widespread bleaching and death of coral reefs around the world Also, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere enters the ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters This acidification further stresses ocean ecosystems
Question 11: Scientists have observed that warmer temperatures in the spring cause flowers
to _
A become lighter B bloom earlier C lose color D die instantly
Question 12: According to paragraph 2, when their habitats grow warmer, animals tend to
move _
A toward the North Pole and down mountainsides toward lower elevations
B toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higher elevations
C north-westwards and up mountainsides toward higher elevations
D south-eastwards and down mountainsides toward lower elevations
Question 13: The pronoun “those” in paragraph 2 refers to _
Question 14: The phrase “dwindling sea ice” in paragraph 2 refers to _
A the violent Arctic Ocean B the frozen water in the Arctic
C the cold ice in the Arctic D the melting ice in the Arctic
Question 15: It is mentioned in the passage that if the global temperature rose by 2 or 3 Celsius
degrees, _
A 20 to 50 percent of species could become extinct
B water supply would decrease by 50 percent
C the sea level would rise by 20 centimeters
D half of the earth’s surface would be flooded
Question 16: The bleaching of coral reefs as mentioned in paragraph 4 indicates
Trang 3
A the slow death of coral reefs B the quick growth of marine mammals
C the water absorption of coral reefs D the blooming phase of sea weeds
Question 17: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A Global warming and species migration
B Influence of climate changes on human lifestyles
C Global warming and possible solutions
D Effects of global warming on animals and plants
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
During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written about the contributions of women during the colonial period and the early history of the newly formed United States Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats of power, women were not considered an important force in history Anne Bradstreet wrote some significant poetry in the seventeenth century, Mercy Otis Warren
produced the best contemporary history of the American Revolution, and Abigail Adams penned
important letters showing she exercised great political influence over her husband, John, the second President of the United States But little or no notice was taken of these contributions During these centuries, women remained invisible in history books
Throughout the nineteenth century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the efforts of female authors writing about women These writers, like most of their male counterparts, were amateur
historians Their writings were celebratory in nature, and they were uncritical in their selection and use
of sources
During the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense of history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged National, regional, and local women's organizations compiled accounts of their doings Personal correspondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and stored These sources from the core of the two greatest collections of women's history in the United States one at the Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College, and the other the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College Such sources have provided valuable materials for later Generations of historians
Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the nineteenth century, most
of the writing about women conformed to the "great women" theory of history, just as much of mainstream American history concentrated on "great men." To demonstrate that women were making significant contributions to American life, female authors singled out women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important women produced their autobiographies Most of these leaders were involved in public life as reformers, activists working for women's right to vote, or authors, and were
not representative at all of the great of ordinary woman The lives of ordinary people continued,
generally, to be untold in the American histories being published
Question 18: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A The "great women" approach to history used by American historians
B The role of literature in early American histories
C The keen sense of history shown by American women
D The place of American women in written histories
Question 19: In the first paragraph, Bradstreet, Warren, and Adams are mentioned to show
that _
A a woman's status was changed by marriage
B only three women were able to get their writing published
C even the contributions of outstanding women were ignored
D poetry produced by women was more readily accepted than other writing by women
Trang 4A written at that time B informative C thoughtful D faultfinding
Question 21: The word “they” in the second paragraph refers to _
Question 22: According to the passage, which of the following would most likely have been collected
by nineteen-century feminist organizations?
A Biographies of John Adams and other American presidents
B Newspaper accounts of presidential election results
C Books about famous graduates of the country’s first college
D Letters from a mother to a daughter about how to handle a family problem
Question 23: What use was made of the nineteenth-century women's history materials in the
Schlesinger Library and the Sophia Smith Collection?
A They provided valuable information for twentieth- century historical researchers
B They were combined and published in a multivolume encyclopedia
C They formed the basis of college courses in the nineteenth century
D They were shared among women's colleges throughout the United States

A reformers B activists for women's rights
