(3) consuming two-thirds of the world's resources while half of the world's population so just to stay alive we are rapidly destroying the (32) _ resource we have by which all people can survive and prosper Everywhere fertile soil is either built on or washed into the sea Renewable resources are exploited so much that they will never be able to recover completely We discharge pollutants into the atmosphere without any thought of the consequences As a (33) _ the planet's ability to support people is being reduced at the very time when rising human numbers and consumption are making

A remain B go C last D stand 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 36 to 42 The principle of use and disuse states that those parts of organisms' bodies that are used grown larger Those parts that are not tend to wither away It is an observed fact that when you exercise particular muscles, they grow Those that are never used diminish By examining a man's body, we can tell which muscles he uses and which he doesn't we may even be able to guess his profession or his reaction Enthusiasts of the "body- building" cult make use of the principle of use and disuse to "build" their bodies, almost like a piece of sculpture, into whatever unnatural shape is demanded by fashion in this peculiar minority culture Muscles are not the only parts of the body that respond to use in this kind of way Walk barefoot and you acquire harder skin on your soles It is easy to tell a farmer from a bank teller by looking at their hands alone The farmer's hands are horny, hardened by long exposure to rough work The teller's hands are relatively soft The principle of use and disuse enables animals to become better at the job of surviving in their world, progressively better during their lifetime as a result of living in that world Humans, through direct exposure to sunlight, or lack of it, develop a skin color which equips them better to survive in the particular local conditions Too much sunlight is dangerous Enthusiastic sunbathers with very fair skins are susceptible to skin cancer Too little sunlight, on the other hand, leads to vitamin-D deficiency and rickets The brown pigment melanin which is synthesized under the influence of sunlight, makes a screen to protect the underlying tissues from the harmful effects of further sunlight If a suntanned person moves to a less sunny climate, the melanin disappears, and the body is able to benefit from what little sun there is This can be represented as an instance of the principle of use and disuse: skin goes brown when it is "used", and fades to white when it is not Question 36 What does the passage mainly discuss? A How the principles of use and disuse change people's concepts of themselves B The way in which people change themselves to conform to fashion C The changes that occur according to the principle of use and disuse D The effects of the sun on the principle of use and disuse Question 37 The phrase "wither away" in line is closest in meaning to A split B rot C perish D shrink Question 38 According to the passage, men who body build A appear like sculptures B change their appearance C belong to strange cults D are very fashionable Question 39 From the passage, it can be inferred that author views body building A with enthusiasm B as an artistic from C with scientific interest D of doubtful benefic Question 40 It can be inferred from the passage that the principle of use and disuse enables organisms to A change their existence B automatically benefit C survive in any condition D improve their lifetime Question 41 The author suggests that melanin © Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 3/5 DeThi.edu.vn (4) A is necessary for the production of vitamin-D B is beneficial in sunless climates C helps protect fair-skinned people D is a synthetic product Question 42 The word "susceptible" could be best replaced by A condemned B vulnerable C allergic D suggestible 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 In the world today, particular in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe, recycling is the big news People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the environment Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time The motto of the recycling movement is “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” The first step is to reduce garbage In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes and expensive plastic wrappings A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging: usually paper, a box and a bag All that packaging is wasted resources People should try to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils Another way to reduce waste is to buy highquality products When low-quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy For example, if a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message In the same way, if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop The second step is to reuse It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores The manufacturers of the drinks collect bottles, wash them, and then fill them again The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again Aluminum cans are expensive to make It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world’s precious resources Question 43 Which area is considered one of the most industrialized ?
