number of questions or unfinished statements about the passage, each with four suggested answers or ways of finishing You must choose the one you think fits best Walt Whitman, born in New York, in 1891, was one of America’s unusual literary figures As an individualist, he rambled through the countryside seeing people and places, and making them his own His experiences in earning a living were varied; at times he was a printer, a teacher, a carpenter, a nurse and a newspaper editor He was a big-hearted man, open and accepting He gave freely of his time by caring for the wounded during the Civil War Though he lived in the city, he often spent time in the country, developing his strong sense of nature, which carried through to his poems In 1855 he collected the verses he had written, and published them in one thin volume, “Leaves of Grass”, a book which he revised and rewrote all the rest of his life The book was ridiculed by some poets and generally ignored by others, probably because his verse forms were not traditional He had felt that it was necessary to achieve a new poetic form in order to communicate his views His reputation didn’t grow until after his death, and it reached a high point in the 1920s Since then, Whitman’s style has greatly influenced modern poets Câu 1089 The best title for this passage is A Walt Whitman B Leaves of Grass C Poetry: A New Form D A Country Man Câu 1090 Whitman’s big-heartedness is shown by his A being an individualist B visiting the countryside C caring for the wounded D rewriting “Leaves of Grass” 222 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 Câu 1091 The passage says that during Whitman’s life time, other poets A accepted him B praised him C communicated with him D laughed at him Câu 1092 We can assume that Whitman was ignored because he A published his poems B rambled through the countryside C rewrote his book D wrote in a new form Câu 1093 The word “rambled” is most similar to the meaning of A traveled quickly B stopped briefly C marched excitedly D walked slowly In this section you will find a number of questions or unfinished statements about the passage, each with four suggested answers or ways of finishing You must choose the one you think fits best England’s highest main-line railway station hangs on to life by a thread: deserted and unmanned since it was officially closed in 1970 Dent, situated high in the hills of Yorkshire wakes up on six summer weekends each year, when a special charter train unloads walkers, sightseers and people who simply want to catch a train from the highest station to its platforms 223 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 But even this limited existence may soon be brought to an end Dent station is situated on the Settel to Carlisle railway line, said to be the most scenic in the country But no amount of scenic beauty can save the line from the British Rail’s cash problems This year, for the sake of economy, the express train which used to pass through Dent station have been put to another route It is now an open secret that British Rail sees no future for this railway line Most of its trains disappeared some time ago Bridge, built on a grand scale a century ago, is failing down It is not alone Half a dozen railway routes in the North of England are facing a similar threat The problem is a worn out system and an almost total lack of cash to repair it Bridges and tunnels are showing their ages The wooden supports for the tracks are rotting and engines and coaches are getting old On major lines between large cities, the problem is not too bad These lines still make a profit and cash can be found to maintain them But on the country branch line, the story is different As track wears out, it is not replaced Instead, speed limits are introduced, making the journey longer than necessary and discouraging customers If a bridge is dangerous, there is often only one thing for British Rail to do: go out and find money from another source This is exactly what it did a few months ago when a bridge at Bridling station was threatening to fall down Repairs were estimated at 200,000 pounds just for one bridge and British Rail was delighted, and rather surprised when two local councils offered half that amount between them Câu 1094 Since 1970 Dent station has been used A only by local people B only by hill walkers C only for a part of each year D only in some years Câu 1095 Of all the railway routes in Britain the one which passes through Dent A is the most historic 224 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 B passes through the most attractive countryside C is the most expensive number of tourists D carries the greatest number of tourists Câu 1096 The most urgent problem for many country railway lines is that A rebuilding bridges B repairing stations C renewing coaches D repairing engines Câu 1097 The people most affected by the difficulties facing the British Rail would appear to be A holiday-makers B occasional and local travelers C organized and groups D businessmen Câu 1098 In order to improve the financial situation of the country railway lines, British Rail should A appeal to local councils B increase fares C reduce scale of maintenance D introduce speed limits In this section you will find a number of questions or unfinished statements about the passage, each with four suggested answers or ways of finishing You must choose the one you think fits best Our growing need for food, goods and energy has had many harmful effects on the environment Gases produced by cars, power stations and factories cause acid rain, which 225 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 kills trees and damages buildings By using more environmentally – friendly forms of transport, we help reduce this form of pollution A layer of carbon dioxide and other gases traps heat and keeps the earth at the right temperature This is called the greenhouse effect By burning fossil fuels we are producing too much carbon dioxide, which is causing temperatures to rise gradually This global warming could lead to dramatic changes in climate A layer of a gas called zone protects the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation Certain chemicals used in industry, such as CFCs, have caused a hole to develop in the ozone layer The increased levels of ultraviolet radiation damage plants and sea life, and increase the risk of skin cancer Most of the energy we use to heat and light buildings, run machines, etc is made by burning fossil fuels This will eventually run out, so we need to use more alternative sources of energy, such as wind and solar power that are renewable and not pollute the air We should also avoid wasting energy by using less electricity and water and insulating our houses We are destroying our forests, which produce oxygen and provide habitats for animals and birds Deforestation also allows rain to wash away the soil, making the land useless for growing things We pollute water by dumping waste from factories and houses, and by accidentally spilling chemicals and oil Chemical fertilizers damage rivers and lakes by causing a layer of tiny plants, called algae, to cover the surface of the water Organic farming does not harm the water supply Burying rubbish in landfills can let harmful chemicals leak through the ground into rivers, and it uses a lot of land Burning rubbish adds to global warming By sorting out rubbish for recycling, we can cut down on waste Câu 1099 The passage is mainly about _ A Environmental problems B How we should use the exciting sources of energy C Rubbish recycling 226 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 D Man and Nature Câu 1100 Acid rain is caused by A The burying of rubbish B Ultraviolet radiation C The burning of rubbish D gases emitted from car exhausts and factories Câu 1101 Skin cancer may be caused by A Ultraviolet radiation B Acid rain C the global warming D Air pollution Câu 1102 We should use more alternative sources of energy, such as wind and solar power because they _ A are cheaper B Can be recycled C Will not run out and not pollute the air D Are easier to get Câu 1103 If we destroy forests _ A Wildlife and farming will be affected B Our wood supply will run out C Animals and birds will have no place to live D Rivers and lakes will be polluted 227 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 In this section you will find a number of questions or unfinished statements about the passage, each with four suggested answers or ways of finishing You

and shelter In addition, agriculture provides materials in making many industrial products, such as paints and medicines About half of the world’s workers are employed in agriculture – far more than in any other industry Agriculture is one of the world’s oldest industries It began about 10,000 years ago in the Middle East By that time, certain Middle East tribes had discovered how to grow plants from seeds and how to raise animals in captivity Having mastered these skills, they could begin to practice agriculture Before the development of agriculture, people got all their food by gathering wild plants, hunting and fishing They had to search for food continually, which left them little time for activities But as agriculture develop the arts, crafts, trades and other activities of civilized life Agriculture, therefore, not only greatly affected the food supply but also made civilization possible Câu 1104 The text is mainly about the importance of A industry B agriculture C food supply D no informationcivilization Câu 1105 According to the writer, the basic needs of human beings are A food, clothing and shelter B industrial products C food and clothing D food and medicines 228 THẦY VŨ: 0921.392.135 Câu 1106 Agriculture is the practice of _ A Gathering wild plants B Hunting and keeping animals in captivity C Growing plants and rearing animals D growing plants and hunting Câu 1107 Before the development of agriculture, people spent most of their time _ A looking for food B Growing plants from seeds C Raising animals in captivity D producing food Câu 1108 As agriculture developed, more people _ A became farmers B became jobless C Could spend their time doing other things D could produce food In this section you will find a number of questions or unfinished statements
