If you’re an environmentalist, plastic is a word you tend to say with a sneer (cười khinh bỉ) or a snarl
it is here to stay, and the truth is, of course, that plastics have brought enormous (47 benefits), even environmental ones. It’s not really the plastics themselves that are the environmental (48 evil-xấu, ác) – it’s the way society chooses to use and (49 abuse- lạm dụng) them. Almost all the 50 or so different kinds of modern plastic are made from oil, gas or coal – nonrenewable natural (50 resources). We import well over three million tons of the stuff in Britain each year and, sooner or later, most of it is thrown away. A high proportion of our annual consumption is in the form of packaging, and this constitutes about seven per cent by weight, of our domestic refuse. Almost all of it could be recycled, but very little of it is, though the plastic recycling industry is growing fast. The plastics themselves are extremely energy-rich – they have a higher calorific (51 value) than coal and one (52 method) of ‘recovery’ strongly (53 favoured) by the plastic manufacturers is the (54 conversion) of waste plastic into fuel.

People need ways to decorate their buildings. Some artists use mosaics (khảm) to help make buildings beautiful. A mosaic is a picture made from bits and pieces of glass. Shells, small stones, tiles, and other hard and interesting materials can also be used. The surface of a good mosaic reflects light. The materials used in the mosaic work together to form a very colorful picture. Mosaic art began in Egypt over 5,000 years ago and then spread around the world. At first, mosaics were used to cover floors. As time went on, they were used to decorate the inside walls of large and beautiful churches. Mosaics were often used on the outside surfaces of buildings. They did not wear away in the sun and the rain. Mosaic art can also make modern buildings more beautiful and interesting. In Mexico, the library building at the National University of Mexico has a mosaic around its top ten stories. The mosaic covers the four sides of the building and measures over an acre of art. Juan O’Gorman helped to plan the building. The mosaic was made with building materials from every Mexican state. The mosaic tells a story about Mexico’s past and present. The bright patterns can be seen from far away.

As late as 1800, women’s only place was in the home. The idea of women in the business world was unthinkable. No “nice” woman would dream of entering what was strictly a “man’s world.” Even if she could, what would she do? Men were positive that no woman could handle a job outside her home. This was such a
widely accepted idea that when the famous Brontë sisters began writing books in 1846, they disguised themselves by signing their books with men’s names. Teaching was the first profession open to women soon after 1800. But even that was not an easy profession for women to enter because most high schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to accept women.
Hospital nursing became respectable work for women only after Florence Nightingale became famous. Because she was a wealthy and cultured woman, as well as a nurse, people began to believe it was possible for women to nurse the sick and still be “ladies.” Miss Nightingale opened England’s first training school for nurses in 1860.
The invention of the typewriter in 1867 helped to bring women out of the home and into the business world. Because women had slender, quick fingers, they learned to operate typewriters quickly and well. Businessmen found that they had to hire women for this new kind of work. By 1900, thousands of women were working at real jobs in schools, hospitals, and offices in both England and America. Some women even managed to become doctors or lawyers. The idea that “nice” women could work in the business world had been accepted.
60. Florence Nightingale became famous as a_____.
A. teacher. B. rich woman. C. nurse. D. typist.
61. The first profession open to women after 1800 was_____.
A. writing. B. teaching. C. operating. D. typing.
62. Why it is not directly stated, the article suggests that_____.
A. all nurses are wealthy, cultured women. B. nursing is a good profession for women. C. women cannot learn to use typewriters. D. women’s best profession is in business. 63. Which statement does the article lead you to believe?
A. There are more men than women in professional jobs. B. The Brontë sisters thought that they were men. C. England’s training school for nurses was in Ohio.D. Nowadays all nurses are women.
64. On the whole, the article tells you about_____.
A. high schools and colleges. B. the famous Brontë sisters.
C. women in the business world. D. inventions that changed women’s roles.

TOPIC: Write a letter to recommend a significant place to visit in Vietnam to your foreign friend.
Vietnam, in worldwide people’s eyes, is the countries of landscapes, beauty spots, tourist attractions, and of course historical addresses. That means one can easily choose a destination for his journey to this very beautiful country. Of all the sights, I would very like to recommend visitors a tourist destination of HUONG PAGODA.
Located in the North, about 30 kilometers south-west of Hanoi capital, Huong Pagoda has long been known as one of the most beautiful sights, the most important religious place to visit. It was once named “NAM THIEN DE NHAT DONG- THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CAVE IN VIETNAM” by one of the Nguyen Dynasty Emperors.
After about 40 minutes driving or riding from the centre of Hanoi Capital city, we will then arrive at a large stream (namely SUOI DUC) water wharf. Catching one of numerous waiting boats, we can travel as far as 3 kilometers to meet with the hillside ramps. While on boat, we have chance to enjoy the very beautiful sights of hills, caves and enjoy the pure environment of water reflecting sky.
Climbing up thousands of stone ramps on foot or taking cable-cars uphill, we then face the main pagoda building. Along the hillside path to the top, we absolutely forget all tiredness to be deeply stimulated by the natural beauty and fresh surroundings. Stood on the top of upfolded hills the primary pagoda is together with supporting temples and other religious constructions.
Millions of home and foreign visitors come to HUONG PAGODA yearly to make it one of the most beloved tourist attractions not only in Vietnam, but the continent as well. With the country’s promising economic development, the explosion of science and technology, the great attention to care for by the governments and people, HUONG PAGODA is more and more attractive to both Vietnamese and overseas tourists.
