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 28 to 32.

Upon the creation of the United States, one of the core concepts on which the hopes for the new democracy were pinned was the ideal that its citizens would be enlightened individuals with clearly articulated rights and the opportunity for individual achievement and education. It was believed that in a free nation where the power belongs to the people, the commitment to education defines the progress of that democracy and is the catalyst for future progress. This core value has not only stood the test of time but has also grown in importance.

In this new Information Era and international economy, education is an increasingly vital commodity, a precursor of potential success and a driving force of chance. It is important to recognize, however, that we approach education today differently than in the past, partly because the kinds of jobs people had didn’t require the kind of basic education and specialized training that is often required in the workforce today. In the 1950s, for instance, only 20 percent of American jobs were classified as professional, 20 percent as skilled; and 60 percent as unskilled. Today, our world has changed. The proportion of unskilled jobs has fallen to 20 percent, while jobs now account for at least 60 percent of the workforce. Even more important, almost every job today increasingly requires a combination of academic knowledge and practical skills that require learning throughout a lifetime.

Question 28: Education is defined in this passage as a driving force of chance because ___________

A. without education, no changes could have happened in American society so far.

B. the government of the United States wants to drive social changes in their own ways.

C. education has helped to bring about and orient most changes in the American workforce.

D. any American citizen who wants to changes his driving license must be very well-educated.

Question 29: The passage shows the percentage of jobs that require higher training in the US__________ between 1950s and now.

A. has remained the same B. has changed dramatically

C. has been reversed D. has changed slightly

Question 30: The phrase “enlightened individuals” in the first sentence most likely means “people who ____________.”

A. always appear brilliant-looking in public B. have often been well-exposed to light

C. have acquired an adequate level of education D. bring light to anywhere they go

Question 31: In order to become a good American citizen today, in the author’s point of view, any individual must ___________

A. know well all his/her rights and be ready to grasp his/her opportunity of success in life

B. study carefully the history of American educational and vocational systems even since their creation

C. understand thoroughly the combination of academic knowledge and practical skills

D. move actively forward in the new Information Era and international economy with a prestigious diploma

Question 32: Which of the following titles would be best for the passage?

A. Education and Jobs in the Past and at Present in the United States.

B. The Significant Role of Education in American Citizens’ Careers

C. Academic Knowledge and Practical Skills in American Professions

D. Recent Changes of Educational and Vocational Systems in America

B. This is the first time Linda has ever had a party.

In early days no medical college took a woman student. Elizabeth Blackwell, however, was determined to become a doctor. The young American wrote

again and again to a number of medical colleges, asking if she could be enrolled but each time the answer was NO.

Then one day, to her surprise, she got a letter from the dean of a college in Geneva, which said YES.

At first Geneva College, like the other colleges, was not willing to enroll Elizabeth. But later the important people of that college learned that Elizabeth's application had the support of a famous doctor, and they were afraid to offend that man.

So the dean decided to play a trick by turning the matter over to the student's general meeting of the college, thinking that the students would be the last to agree to take Elizabeth.

When the boy students met, most students took no interest in the matter. Of the rest, some considered the young American's idea interesting and some thought by having Elizabeth they would be proud of their college training the world's first woman doctor. Very soon the students all agreed to accept Elizabeth.

The dean of Geneva College was of course very sorry to learn this, but seeing that he could do nothing to keep Elizabeth out, he gave in.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, c, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

In early days no medical college took a woman student. Elizabeth Blackwell, however, was determined to become a doctor. The young American wrote

again and again to a number of medical colleges, asking if she could be enrolled but each time the answer was NO.

Then one day, to her surprise, she got a letter from the dean of a college in Geneva, which said YES.

At first Geneva College, like the other colleges, was not willing to enroll Elizabeth. But later the important people of that college learned that Elizabeth's application had the support of a famous doctor, and they were afraid to offend that man.

So the dean decided to play a trick by turning the matter over to the student's general meeting of the college, thinking that the students would be the last to agree to take Elizabeth.

When the boy students met, most students took no interest in the matter. Of the rest, some considered the young American's idea interesting and some thought by having Elizabeth they would be proud of their college training the world's first woman doctor. Very soon the students all agreed to accept Elizabeth.

The dean of Geneva College was of course very sorry to learn this, but seeing that he could do nothing to keep Elizabeth out, he gave in.

28. Elizabeth was surprised by the dean's letter, because it promised her to_______.

A. have free medical education B. go to Geneva

C. become a student in his college D. go to Italy

29. At first Geneva College_______accepting Elizabeth.

A. did not consider B. thought about

C. was interested in D. was not aware of

30. When the student body met to consider Elizabeth's application, _______.

A. most students were serious

B. many of the students showed no interest in the matter

C. most students took interest in the matter

D. most of the students were not joking

31. Some students thought if they let Elizabeth join them they could make_______.

A. her proud B. the dean proud

C. Geneva College proud D. him proud

32. The dean was very sorry when he saw his trick_______.

A. worked B. continued C. succeeded D. failed

Recently, we made a trip to visit Dong Ho village with a desire to meet the old artisan - Nguyen Huu Sam. Just when we arrived at the dyke in the village and talked with the villagers about the artisan, they intimately told us about him. The old house owned by the artisan is situated in a long alley of the village. On the walls of the house there are many folk paintings in different genres, from daily life paintings to landscape paintings shown in a set of “four seasons” and four times.

Mr. Sam told us about his past. When he was three years old, he was instructed in the craft of making Dong Ho paintings by his father. At five, he could help his father apply the Dong Ho paintings, and learn how to print the paper with proper colours.At seven, he was able to draw with a pen and make the most difficult samples. Years went by and the soul of Dong Ho folk paintings has kept seashell powder paint to the poonah-paper.

In the 1940s, this craft flourished. At that time, he was assigned by his parents to take the paintings to the market for sale. Mr. Sam said that 17 families in the village had been engaged in making Dong Ho paintings.

Artisan Sam has always been devoted to the making of Dong Ho paintings and has waited for opportunities to restore this traditional craft. In 1967, when the local authorities assigned him to restore the traditional genre of Dong Ho folk paintings, he gathered 50 villagers with professional skills and collected hundreds of woodblocks to establish the Dong Ho Painting Cooperative. Thanks to his efforts, such famous paintings as "Rat’s wedding”, “Rooster”, “Scene of jealousy” and “Writing verses about precious flowers” have been revived. Dong Ho paintings have been available in many parts of the world such as Japan, France, Germany, Singapore and the United States.

The truth is that the populations of many species are decreasing at an unsustainable rate, and the number of species listed as endangered from marine life families such as whales, dolphins, manatees and dugongs, salmon, seabirds, sea turtles, and sharks to name a few, is on the rise. The threats to marine species are difficult to perceive because marine animals are not as visible as animals on land. But unfortunately, marine creatures are equally, if not more, vulnerable to problems such as habitat destruction and overexploitation.

Shallow water animals that breathe air, like turtles, manatees, dugongs, and whales are often hit by boats and caught in fishing gear. Species such as turtles that lay their eggs on land often lose their nurseries due to coastal development. Animals that have taken millions of years to evolve, that are invaluable to all ecosystems, have and continue to vanish from places where they once flourished.

28. What is human’s perception of the ocean so far?

A. The ocean resources will never be exhausted.

B. The ocean is capable of resisting overexploitation.

C. Both A and B are correct.

D. Neither A or B is correct.

29. All of the following are true EXCEPT .

A. turtles are a kind of shallow water animal

B. the evolution of some animals could take up to millions of years

C. powerful animals like sharks run less risk of endangerment

D. coastal development affects the reproduction process of some sea animals

30. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “vulnerable”?

A. resistant B. energetic C. weak D. adaptive

31. What is the reason for the difficulty in understanding threats to marine life?

A. That humans can hardly see marine creatures.

B. That the rate of population decrease is unsustainable.

C. That technology is underdeveloped.

D. That there are too many types of marine creatures in the ocean.

32. What does “flourished” mean?

A. changed into something unusual B. failed miserably

C. spread all over D. grew in a successful way

Every December, I begin to feel uncomfortable. Why? Christmas is coming. Most people enjoy this holiday, but it makes me depressed. First, I’m not a religious person. This holiday celebrates the birth of Christ, and it’s full of religious symbols. Second, Christmas is becoming more and more commercial. It’s the most important time of year for owners of stores, for example. Spending lots of money seems to be people’s main activity in December. Everywhere you hear the commands “ Buy! Spend! Give!”. It’s awful. Last, I think Christmas is a difficult time of year for people without families. I’ ve been living away from my family for several years, and I miss being with them - especially at Christmas.

You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you understand the
assignment. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to, and don’t be afraid
to ask questions about what is expected. It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher
during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night! If you want, you can also
ask how long the particular homework assignment should take to complete so you can plan
your time.
Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many schools
have libraries that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get homework done.
The more work you can get done in school, the less you will have to do that night.
Third, pace yourself. If you don’t finish your homework during school, think about how
much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then plan your time. Most middle
students should have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework
day, you will need to devote more time to homework.

No one is expected to understand everything, and maybe you need some help. The first
place to turn for help is your teacher. But what if you don’t feel comfortable with your teacher?
If you are in a big enough school, there may be other teachers who teach the same subject.
Speak to other teachers directly and you may be in luck. Sometimes it just helps to have
someone explain something in a different way. Moreover, you might also be able to get some
help from another student. If there is someone you like who is a good student, think about
asking that person if you can study together.
28. The most important thing that you should do when you get your assignment may be
________.
A. to know when you hand it in
B. to understand it and its requirements
C. to know how long it takes to complete it
D. to remember it in order to plan the time
29. If you have any free time left at school, you should ________.
A. use it to do your homework in the library
B. spend time with your friends
C. use it to understand the assignment
D. use it to make your day planner
30. When students need some help, they should ________.
A. never ask other teachers for help
B. always turn to their own teachers for help
C. ask any good students at the subject in your school
D. go to their teachers or other teachers teaching the same subject
31. The main idea of the first three paragraphs is ________.
A. to get help when you need it
B. to do homework immediately

C. to create a homework plan
D. to ask your teachers for more explanation

32. According to the passage, all of the following are correct EXCEPT that ________.
A. it takes a student more than three hours a night if there is much homework
B. it is good to have the explanation in a different way
C. you only do your homework at home between 1 and 3 hours a night
D. it is very useful to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class
X. Rewrite the sentences using the provided word and keep meaning as that of the root one.
