A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake ,one of the world’s largest and deepest , lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this blockof ice because its waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth’s core The thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface
The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research teamwas conducting an aerial survey of the area Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size.It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake ; the satellite –borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake
The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organism in more exposed areas The downside of the discovery,however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination Scientists are looking for possible way to accomplish this
Câu 46: The word “hidden” in paragraph is closest in meaning to
A unexploitable B untouched C undicovered D undrinkable Câu 47: What is true of Lake Vostok ?
(4)A easily broken B quite harsh C lukewarm D extremely cold Câu 49: All of the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that it
A could not determine the lake’s exact size B made use of radio waves C was conducted by air D was controlled by a satellite Câu 50: It can be inffered from the passage that the ice would not be flat if
A there were no lake underneath B Antarctica were not so cold C radio waves were not used D the lake were not so big
Câu 51: The word “microbes” in paragrahp could be best replaced by which of the following ? A Rays of light B Pieces of dust C Tiny bubbles D Tiny organisms Câu 52: Lake Vostok is potentially important to scientists because it
A may have elevated levels of ultraviolet light B has already been contaminated
C can be studied using radio waves D may contain uncontaminated microbes Câu 53: The word “ downside” in paragrahp is closest in meaning to _
A buried section B bottom level C underside D negative aspect Câu 54: The last paragraph suggests that scientists should be aware of _
A further discoveries on the surface of Antarctica B problems with satellite – borne radar equipment C the harsh climate of Antarctica
D ways to study Lake Vostok without contaminating it Câu 55: The purpose of the passage is to _
A present an unexpected aspect of Antarctica’s geography B provided satellite data concerning Antarctica
C explain how Lake Vostok was discovered D discuss future plans for Lake Vostok

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves in front of the Sun and hides at least some part of the Sun from the earth In a partial eclipse, the Moon covers part of the Sun; in an annual eclipse, the Moon covers the center of the Sun, leaving a bright ring of light around the Moon; in a total eclipse, the Sun is
completely covered by the Moon
It seems rather improbable that a celestial body size of the Moon could completely block out the tremendously immense Sun, as happens during a total eclipse, but this is exactly what happens Although the Moon is considerably smaller in size than the Sun, the Moon is able to cover the Sun because of their
relative distances from Earth A total eclipse can last up to minutes, during which time the Moon’s shadow moves across Earth at a rate of about kilometers per second

a describes how long an eclipse will last B gives facts about the Moon
c explains how the Sun is able to obscure the Moon D informs the reader about solar eclipses 37 In which type of eclipse is the Sun obscured in its entirety?

(9)39 A celestial body in line is most probably one that is found .
a somewhere in the sky b within the Moon’s shadow c on the surface of the Sun d inside Earth’s atmosphere 40 What is the meaning of block out in line 5?
a Square b Cover c Evaporate d Shrink
41 According to the passage, how can the Moon hide the Sun during a total eclipse?
a The fact that the Moon is closer to Earth than the Sun makes up for the Moon’s smaller size b The Moon can only obscure the Sun because of the Moon’s great distance from the Earth c Because the Sun is relatively close to Earth, the Sun can be eclipsed by the Moon
d The moon hides the Sun because of the Moon’s considerable size 42 The word relative in line could best be replaced by .
a familial b infinite c comparative d paternal
43 The passage states that which of the following happens during an eclipse?
a The Moon hides from the Sun b The Moon is obscured by the Sun
c The Moon begins moving at a speed of kilometers per second d.The Moon’s shadow crosses Earth 44 The word rate in line is closest in meaning to .
a form b speed c distance d rotation

a Lines 1- b Lines 2- c Lines 5-6 d Lines 8-9

Most people think of deserts as dry, flat areas with little vegetation and little or no rainfall, but this is hardly true Many deserts have varied geographical formations ranging from soft, rolling hills to stark, jagged cliffs, and most deserts have a permanent source of water Although deserts not receive a high amount of rainfall – to be classified as a desert, an area must get less than twenty-five centimeters of rainfall per year – there are many plants that thrive on only small amounts of water, and deserts are often full of such plant life
Desert plants have a variety of mechanisms for obtaining the water needed for survival Some plants, such as cactus, are able to store large amounts of water to last until the next rainfall Other plants, such as the mesquite, have extraordinarily deep root systems that allow them to obtain water from far below the desert’s arid surface

Reading passage:
As heart disease continues to be the number-one killer in the United States, researchers have become increasingly interested in identifying the potential risk factors that trigger heart attacks High-fat diets and "life in the fast lane" have long been known to contribute to the high incidence of heart failure But according to new studies, the list of risk factors may be significantly longer and quite surprising
Heart failure, for example, appears to have seasonal and temporal patterns A higher percentage of heart attacks occur in cold weather, and more people experience heart failure on Monday than on any other day of the week In addition, people are more susceptible to heart attacks in the first few hours after waking Cardiologists first observed this morning phenomenon in the mid-1980, and have since discovered a number of possible causes An early-morning rise in blood pressure, heart rate, and concentration of heart stimulating hormones, plus a reduction of blood flow to the heart, may all contribute to the higher incidence of heart attacks between the hours of 8:00 A.M and 10:00 A.M
In other studies, both birthdays and bachelorhood have been implicated as risk factors Statistics reveal that heart attack rates increase significantly for both females and males in the few days immediately preceding and following their birthdays And unmarried men are more at risk for heart attacks than their married counterparts Though stress is thought to be linked in some way to all of the aforementioned risk factors, intense research continues in the hope of further comprehending why and how heart failure is triggered
46 What does the passage mainly discuss? (A) cardiology in the 1980s
(B) seasonal and temporal patterns of heart attacks (C) risk factors in heart attacks
(D) diet and stress as factors in heart attacks
47 In line 2, the word "potential" could best be re-placed by which of the following? (A) harmful (B) possible (C) unknown (D) primary
48 The word "trigger" as used in line is closest in meaning to which of the following? (A) involve (B) affect (C) cause (D) encounter
49 Which of the following could best replace the word "incidence" as used in line 3? (A) increase (B) rate (C) factor (D) chance
50 The author uses the word "temporal" in line to mean
(A) affected by (B) of a certain date (C) regularly (D) expected 51 The phrase "susceptible to" in line could best be replaced by
(A) aware of (B) prone to (C) accustomed (D) affected by
52 According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a possible cause of many heart attacks? (A) decreased blood flow to the heart (B) increase in hormones
(C) lower heart rate (D) increased blood pressure 53 The word "phenomenon" in line refers to which of the following?
(A) habit (B) activity (C) occurrence (D) illness 54 Which of the following is NOT cited as a possible risk factor?
(14)(A) We now fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks (B) We not fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks (C) We have not identified many risk factors associated with heart attacks (D) We recently began to study how risk factors trigger heart attacks

You can usually tell when your friends are happy or angry by the looks on their faces or by their actions This is useful because reading their emotional expressions helps you to know how to respond to them Emotions have evolved to help us respond to important situations and to convey our intentions to others But does raising the eyebrows and rounding the mouth say the same thing in Minneapolis as it does in Madagascar? Much research on emotional expressions has centered on such questions

both the context and intensity of emotional displays – the so called display rules In many Asian cultures, for example, children are taught to control emotional responses – especially negative ones- while many American children are encouraged to express their feelings more openly Regardless of culture, however, emotions usually show themselves, to some degree , in people’s behavior From their first days of life, babies produce facial expressions that communicate their feelings
The ability to read facial expressions develops early, too Very young children pay close attention to facial expressions, and by age five, they nearly equal adults in their skill at reading emotions on people’s faces This evidence all points to a biological underpinning for our abilities to express and interpret a basic set of human emotions Moreover, as Charles Darwin pointed out over a century ago, some emotional expressions seem to appear across species boundaries Cross - cultural psychologists tell us that certain emotional responses carry different meanings in different cultures For example, what emotion you suppose might be conveyed by sticking out your tongue? For Americans, this might indicate disgust, while in China it can signify surprise Likewise, a grin on an American face may indicate joy, while on a Japanese face it may just as easily mean embarrassment Clearly, culture influences emotional expressions
71: According to the passage, we respond to others by
A observing their looks C watching their actions
B observing their emotional expressions D looking at their faces
72: Many studies on emotional expressions try to answer the question whether _
A different cultures have similar emotional expressions

B not convey the same emotions in various cultures C are not popular everywhere
D have different meanings in different cultures 76: The biggest difference lies in
A how long negative emotions are displayed B how intensive emotions are expressed C how emotional responses are controlled D how often positive emotions are shown
77: Unlike American children, Asian children are encouraged to A control their emotions C display their emotions openly
B conceal their positive emotions D change their behaviour
78: Young children
A spend a long time learning to read others’ emotions B are sensitive towards others’ emotions
