called 'avis' or ‘gazette' – filled with information on wars and politics in Europe were distributed weekly in Venice Similar news sheets soon started to appear in other European countries By 1615, Germany and Austria were publishing weeklies And in 1621, the first news sheets appeared in England At first, these news sheets only printed news which came from outside the country in which they were printed Discussion of local or national issues was avoided Europe’s governments did not tolerate anything negative being said about them as it could lead to national unrest Such censorship slowed the development of newspapers Nevertheless, a belief in the importance of a 'free press’ slowly began to take hold in Europe England was among the first countries to escape government control of the press This occurred during the reign of King Charles I in the 17th century, when, during a period of breakdown in the king's authority, people began to publish what they wanted Eventually, free press had the right to criticize government and voice other ideas freely In the middle of the 18th century, Sweden became the first country to make press freedom a part of its law In the 19th century, the newspaper industry was transformed by the invention of the telegraph The telegraph was a communication system that allowed messages to be sent over long distances in a matter of minutes It wasn’t long before newspapers became society's primary means of spreading and receiving information In 1880, the first photographs appeared in newspapers and, by the end of the century, all the basic technical tools for the modern newspaper were in place The story of newspapers in the 20th century was one of adaptation to changing consumer and media markets The invention of radio, TV, and later the Internet, repeatedly drove newspapers to re-invent themselves Also, during the 20th century, mass-market advertising increased profitability for newspapers This attracted large, publicly-owned corporations who began buying newspapers from the descendants of company founders Over the years, people have periodically predicted the extinction of newspapers In fact, every time a new media has come into being, dire predictions have been made for existing forms (e.g television was supposed to have replaced radio, radio was supposed to have replaced newspapers) Yet history has repeatedly shown that new media not replace existing media Instead, what happens is that media Trang consumption grows, which creates the necessary space for the new media to become a part of the media landscape According to the World Association of Newspapers (WAN), each day more than 1.5 billion people around the world read a newspaper The WAN has also estimated the total annual worth of the global newspaper industry and put it at just under 180 billion USD Such statistics suggest the newspaper industry is healthier than at any other time in its history Indeed, if the industry proves itself as capable of adapting to change as it has done in the past, it is unlikely that newspapers will be disappearing from newsstands anytime soon Question 17: In the 19th century, _ A information in newspapers became more technical B the newspaper industry invented the telegraph C photos signaled the start of the modern newspaper era D the role of newspapers became more important Question 18: In paragraph 1, we learn that _ A Europe was at wat in 1566 B news travelled slowly in Europe C newspapers get their name from 16th century news sheet D daily editions of newspapers were a later development Question 19: In the 20th century, newspapers _ A invented mass-market advertising B began to pass to public hands C lost many readers to TV D used ads to attract investors Question 20: The extinction of newspapers _ A would probably have occurred if radio had been more popular B would allow for more media to become part of the media landscape C is a prediction unsupported by past evidence D was original predicted by the media itself Question 21: The first news sheet _ A were checked by authorities B avoided all controversial topics C were distributed internationally D discussed foreign issues Question 22: In paragraph 3, we learn that _ A England was the first to believe in a free press B Sweden’s „press freedom’ law followed England’s C King Charles I opposed a free press D criticizing governments was the original purpose of a free press Question 23: The pronoun “it” in the last paragraph refers to _ A change B history C the newspaper industry D the WAN Trang Question 24: The word “to take hold” in paragraph mostly means _ A to take place B to make a mess C to become very strong D to lose control 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 25 to 29 Why are there so many grandmothers and so few grandfathers? In other words, why men die younger than women? Is this because men are afraid of getting old and helpless and so they prefer to die before that happens? Perhaps they fear to be left alone by their women and so decide to the leaving first Many explanations are given for the fact that men die earlier than women Men are stronger physically, yet women can hang on longer to life Both men and women are emotional creatures but women are not afraid or ashamed to cry while men refuse to so They are afraid of being thought "soft" Some men, when they are upset, play loud music or dig in the garden to relieve their feelings Many men like an orderly life so that they bury themselves in their work or want a wife with some children or long to take part in wars where there is a definite chain of command There is a leader to give orders and a known enemy to fight against and defeat All these make men feel they live in a rational world So the majority of men like a rational world Rationality is fine but it does not include everything that makes life joyful and fun or even messy and frustrating When a man refuses to cry he is refusing to accept that his emotions are part of him Of course some men not follow this pattern Bob Hawke is capable of crying in public whereas Margaret Thatcher is probably incapable of crying at any time We need to cry because that shows our ability to suffer If we not suffer we are not really alive at all Suffering can be creative or destructive If we can all learn to cry and laugh and shout and dance openly, we are living creatively and adding something to the human race We often say men suffer more from stress and therefore they die earlier Are we not saying in another way that they not know how to suffer in the right way – with tears and laughter instead of silence – and so they are miserable and just give up? That is just my theory of course Have you a better one? Question 25: What does the word "that" in the passage refer to? A The fact that men get old and helpless B The fact that they fear to be left alone C The fact that men die younger than women D The fact that they decide to the leaving first Question 26: What’s the main question the article is intended to discuss?

later gas, oil and minerals were found in unbelievable amounts There was a great abundance of very fertile soil Forests, prairies, streams and rivers abounded with wildlife So vast were these resources that it seemed that they could never be used up So forests were destroyed to make way for farmland Grass lands and prairies were plowed and harrowed Minerals and oil were used in great quantities to supply a young industrial nation Almost every river became the scene of factories, mills and power companies Mammals and birds were slaughtered for food and sports Within a short time, the results were obvious Floods caused millions of dollars worth of damage yearly The very fertile soil was washed away or blown up in great clouds The seemingly inexhaustible oil and minerals showed signs of depletion Rivers were filled with silt from eroding farms and wastes from factories Many of the rivers were made unfit for fish Several species of birds disappeared, and some mammals seemed on the verge of going Future timber shortages were predicted In short, Americans soon became to realize that some sort of conservation program must be set up, if future as well as present Americans were to share in the resources that are the heritage of every American Question 38: The title that best expresses the main idea of this selection is A The story of America's natural resources B What the first white men found in America C The cause of timber shortage D The loss of topsoil Question 39: It seeemed to the early American settlers that A fertile soil was scarce B there was a shortage of minerals C the natural resources were inexhaustible D forests should not be cut Question 40: The use of America's natural resources by the early settlers was A scientific B predicted C unbelievable D careless Question 41: Much of the fertile soil of America has A been eroded by wind and water B been covered by lakes C become the scene of factories D sunk deep into the earth Question 42:One reason why many of our rivers are no longer suitable living places for fish is that A factories have dumped wastes into the rivers B too many fish have been caught - - C floods have caused much damage D a conservation program has been set up 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 Lighthouses are towers with strong lights that help mariners plot their position, inform them that land is near, and warn them of dangerous rocks and reefs They are placed at prominent points on the coast and on islands, reefs, and sandbars Every lighthouse has a distinctive pattern of light known as its characteristic There are five basic characteristics: fixed, flashing, occulting, group flashing, and group occulting A fixed signal is a steady beam A flashing signal has periods of darkness longer than periods of light, while an occulting signal’s periods of light are longer A group- flashing light gives off two or more flashes at regular intervals, and a group – occulting signal consists of a fixed light with two or more periods of darkness at regular intervals Some lighthouses use lights of different colors as well, and today, most lighthouses are also equipped with radio beacons The three types of apparatus used to produce the signals are the catoptric, in which metal is used to reflect the light; the dioptric, in which glass is used; and the catadioptric, in which both glass and metal are used In the daytime, lighthouses can usually be identified by their structure alone The most typical structure is a tower tapering at the top, but some, such as the Bastion Lighthouse on the Saint Lawrence River, are shaped like pyramids, and others, such as the Race Rock light, look like wooden houses sitting on high platforms Still others, such as The American Shoal lighthouse off the Florida Coast, are skeletal towers of steel Where lighthouses might be confused in daylight, they can be distinguished by day- marker patterns – designed of checks and stripes painted in vivid colors on lighthouse walls In the past, the job of lighthouse keeper was lonely and difficult if somewhat romantic Lighthouse keepers put in hours of tedious work maintaining the lights Today, lighthouses are almost entirely automated with humans supplying only occasional maintenance Because of improvements in navigational technology, the importance of lighthouses has diminished There are only about 340 functioning lighthouses in existence in the United States today, compared to about 1,500 in 1900, and there are only about 1,400 functioning lighthouses outside the United States Some decommissioned lighthouses have been preserved as historical monument Question 43: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the functions of lighthouses?

after wheat, corn, and rice Today, Americans consume about 140 pounds of potatoes per person every year, while Europeans eat twice as many One of our favorite ways to eat potatoes is in the form of potato chips While Benjamin Franklin was the American ambassador to France, he went to a banquet where potatoes were prepared in 20 different ways Thomas Jefferson, who succeeded Franklin as our French ambassador, brought the recipe for thick-cut, French fried potatoes to America He served French fries to guests at the White House in 1802 and at his home, Monticello A Native American chef named George Crum created the first potato chips on August 24, 1853, at Moon Lake Lodge in Saratoga, New York He became angry when a diner complained that his French fries were too thick, so he sliced the potatoes as thinly as possible, making them too thin and crisp to eat with a fork The diner loved them, and potato chips were born In 1860, Chef Crum opened his own restaurant and offered a basket of potato chips on every table Joe "Spud" Murphy and Seamus Burke produced the world's first seasoned crisps, cheese & onion and salt & vinegar chips, in the 1950s in Ireland In the United Kingdom and Ireland, crisps are what we, in the United States, call potato chips, while their chips refer to our French fries Ketchup-flavored chips are popular in the Middle East and Canada Seaweed-flavored chips are popular in Asia, and chicken-flavored chips are popular in Mexico Other flavors from around the world include: paprika, pickled onion, béarnaise, meat pie, chili crab, salmon teriyaki, borscht, Caesar salad, roasted sausage, firecracker lobster, roast ox, haggis and black pepper, olive, and spaghetti (Adapted from https://en.islcollective.com) Question 38 Which of the following is a true statement?

A Green cities are too expensive to build in most countries B Few people have interest in living in a green city C The best green cities in the world are in North America D We should continue to see more green cities being built each year Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions Because geologists have long indicated that fossil fuels will not last indefinitely, the U.S government finally acknowledged that sooner or later other energy sources would be needed and, as a result, turned its attention to nuclear power It was anticipated that nuclear power plants could supply electricity in such large amounts and so inexpensively that they would be integrated into an economy in which electricity would take over virtually all fuel-generating functions at ​nominal ​cost Thus, the government subsidized the promotion of commercial nuclear power plants and authorized their construction by utility companies In the 1960s and early 1970s, the public accepted the ​notion of electricity being generated by nuclear power plants in or near residential areas By 1975, 54 plants were fully operational, supplying 11 percent of the nation’s electricity, and another 167 plants were at various stages of planning and construction Officials estimated that by 1990 hundreds of plants would be on line, and by the turn of the century as many as 1000 plants would be in working order Since 1975, ​this outlook ​and this estimation have changed drastically, and many utilizes have cancelled existing orders In some cases, construction was ​terminated even after billions of dollars had already been invested After being completed and licensed at a cost of almost $6 billion, the Shoreham Power Plant on Long Island was turned over to the state of New York to be dismantled without ever having generated electric power The reason was that residents and state authorities deemed that there was no possibility of evacuating residents from the area should an accident occur Just 68 of those plants under way in 1975 have been completed, and another are still under construction Therefore, it appears that in the mid1990s 124 nuclear power plants in the nation will be in operation, generating about 18 percent of the nation’s electricity, a figure that will undoubtedly decline as relatively outdated plants are shut down Question​ ​43:​ What was initially planned for the nation’s fuel supply in the 1950s and in the early 1960s? A Expansion and renovation of existing fuel-generating plants B Creation of additional storage capacities for fossil fuels C Conversion of the industry and the economy to nuclear power D Development of an array of alternative fuel and power sources Question ​44: How does the author describe the attitude of the population in regard to nuclear power as fuel in the early to the mid 1970s?
