Reading comprehension (30 points) Part I. Read the passage carefully then answer the questions below it. The Battle of Dien Bien Phu ended the Indochina War. Today Dien Bien Phu is a tourist destination. Many visitors are battle veterans or members of their families. As well as visiting the battle site, tourists can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Muong Thanh Valley, visit the neighboring villages, and share the hospitability of the local people. Most of the people who live in the area are members of the Thai or H’Mong ethnic minorities. However, they do not depend on tourism alone to live. As Dien Bien Phu is only 30 kilometers from Laos border, it is an important trading center. Food leaves here for Laos and Thailand and goods arrive back to provide for the northern provinces of Vietnam. Questions: 1. What did Dien Bien Phu use to be? . 2. Who visits Dien Bien Phu? . 3. Do tourists come to Dien Bien only to visit the battle site? . 4. Why is Dien Bien Phu an important trading center? . 5. Do people in Dien Bien Phu depend on tourism or on trading to live? . Part II.

Part III. Read the passage then choose the correct answer to each question. Circle A, B ,C or D. The play now on at the New Theater as part of the Eastern Arts Festival is not among the best plays for which the director, Army Fielding, has been responsible. The action takes place in the home of Professor Spear. One night his landlady comes to the house for a chat. After inviting her in, the professor hears a sound and thinking it is a burglar coming to rob the house, fires his gun. By mistake the wrong person is shot and the thief gets away. The scene of the second act is a law court, in which everyone waits to find out if the professor is guilty of murder. I did not care for the acting in some cases. Norman Jones is normally seen in some comedies and it is not satisfactory as the professor. He doesn’t look like a wise old man. Also Simon Fry, as the servant, shouted at the top of his voice through the play. The hit of the evening, however, was James Smith as the judge. On the whole, the play appeared to be a little out of date. I can think of many other plays which would have been more suitable for a group of clever young actors to perform. The play continues until the end of the month. 1. The passage is from ________. A. a review of the play. B. an instruction to a book. C. a letter. D. an advertisement. 2. What is the writer trying to do ? A. To give advice to the writer of the play. B. To warn people not to go and see the play. C. To give his own opinion of the play. D. To persuade the director to change the play. 3. The writer’s opinion about the play is that ______. A. there were not enough actors for the parts. B. the actors would have performed better in a modern play. C. the play was being performed at the wrong time of the year. D. the play was a comedy but the audience did not find it amusing. 4. The writer thought the actor who played the professor was unsatisfactory because ____. A. he made the audience laugh too much. B. he did not look like a professor . C. he had the wrong kind of moustache. D. he was not clever enough to play the part 5. Who, among the four following persons, will probably enjoy the play ? A. “I don’t care much for serious subjects. I like comedies, especially about the young. Norman Jones is great, so young and lively. I like the way he jumps about the stage. He can never stand still.” B. “I only like going to the theatre when there is something on with a lot of songs. Simon Fry is a good singer. I saw him in a show last year. I hope he’ll be singing again when I next go to the theater.” C. “I really prefer plays with a good story. I like to wonder about what to happen in the end. I’m a great fan of James Smith.” D. “I prefer modern plays. This director did one that I liked last year. There was a group of actors on a bare stage without any scenery . It showed what is wrong with modern society.” Part IV. Read the passage then choose the word or phrase that best fits each space by circling A, B , C or D. (1) …………. the clock every day is such an exhausting effort (2) …………. when I actually have a few free moments, I tend to collapse. Mostly I (3)…………. into a chair and stare into space while I imagine how lovely life would be (4) …………. I possessed the organizational skills and the energy of my super heroines. In fact, I waste (5) …………. of my spare time just worrying about what other women are accomplishing in (6) ………… Sometimes I think that these modern fairy tales create as many problems for women as the old stories that had us biding our time for the day our prince would come. Yet superwomen tales continue (7) ………….me. Despite my friend’s warning against being taken in, despite (8) …………. I’ve learned, I find that I’m not only willing, but positively eager to buy that bridge she mentioned. Why? I suppose it has something to do with the (9) ………….of an optimistic approach (10) ………….life and the fact that extraordinary deeds have been accomplished by determined individuals who refused to believe that “you can’t” was the final word on their dreams. 1. A. Raced B. Race C. Racing D. Being raced Page 3/5 2. A. because B. if C. for D. that 3. A. sit B. sink C. seat D. sat 4. A. if only B. only if C. not only D. what if 5.
