Bài 1: Read the passage and then do the tasks that follow
Everyone has a number of acquaintances, but no one has many friends, for true friendship is not common, and there are many people who seem to be incapable of it For a friendship to be close and lasting, both the friends must have some very special qualities
The first quality is unselfishness A person who is concerned only with his own interests and feelings cannot be a true friend Friendship is a two-sided affair; it lives by give-and-take, and no friendship can last long which is all give on one side and all take on the other
Constancy is the second quality Some people do not seem to be constant They take up an interest with enthusiasm, but they are soon tired of it and feel the attraction of some new object Such changeable and uncertain people are incapable of a lifelong friendship
Loyalty is the third quality Two friends must be loyal to each other, and they must know each other so well that there can be no suspicions between them We do not think much of people who readily believe rumours and gossip about their friends Those who are easily influenced by rumours can never be good friends
Trust is perhaps the fourth quality There must be mutual trust between friends, so that each can feel safe when telling the other his or her secrets There are people who cannot keep a secret, either of their own or of others' Such people will never keep a friend long
Lastly, there must be a perfect sympathy between friends - sympathy with each other's aims, likes, joys, sorrows, pursuits and pleasures Where such mutual sympathy does not exist, friendship is impossible
Fill each blank with a suitable word/phrase
acquaintance, mutual, give-and-take, incapable of, unselfish, friend, loyal to, suspicious
1 Good friendship should be based on understanding
2 The children seem to be working quietly by themselves
3 He is a(n) man He always helps people without thinking of his own benefit

6 Despite many changes in his life, he remained his working principles
7 He started to get _ when she told him that she had been to Britain for many times
Which of the choices A, B, C, or D most adequately sums up the ideas of the whole passage?
A A friend in need is a friend indeed
B Conditions of true friendship
C Features of a good friend
D Friends and acquaintances

Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboo in a particular culture Latin Americans enjoy sharing information about their local history, art, and customs Expect questions about your
family, and be sure to show pictures of your children You may feel free to ask similar questions of your Latin American friends The French think of conversation as an art form, and they enjoy the value of lively discussions as well as disagreements For them, arguments can be interesting - and they can cover pretty much on any topics - as long as they occur in a respectful and intelligent manner
In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics In Japan, China, and Korea, however, people are much more private They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious business relationship they’re trying to build Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children
As a general rule, it’s best not to talk about politics or religion with your business friends This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views In addition, discussing one’s salary is usually considered unsuitable Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport Instead, be friendly and praise your host’s team

Bài 50 Read the passage and then do the exercises that follow
Trang 23Over one billion people lack adequate housing These people are found in every country of the world and, indeed, in almost every community They live in huts made of sticks, mud or metal; in some cases, they don’t even have a roof over their heads The problem is huge Does this mean there is nothing that can be done?
According to the people at Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI), there’s plenty that can be done HFHI was founded in 1976 by Millard and Linda Fuller, millionaires who decided their money could best be spent helping people Since then, HFHI has helped fix and build homes for tens of thousands of people in the United States and over 30 other countries
A look at who builds these homes reveals a lot about HFHI Jimmy Carter, former U.S president, and his wife, Rosalynn, spend a week each year helping to build houses Evinor Mira, a 16-year-old high school student, recently helped to build houses for his family and others in his community in Tepetitan, El Salvador
HFHI believes that the homes should not be given as charity; instead, the organisation follows a system known as partnership housing: the people who will live in the homes, like Evinor, work together with volunteers on the
construction and then gradually pay off the basic cost of the homes These payments, together with contributions, enable HFHI to help other people
By tackling the problem of inadequate housing, HFHI tackles other important social problems as well People who have decent homes are better able to manage in life and to be productive members of society And when homes are improved, neighbourhoods and communities can be improved, too
Fill T (True) or F (False) to the following statements For the false statement, write the true information
1 There are some countries without housing problems
2 Habitat for Humanity International was founded in 1976
3 Habitat for Humanity International was founded by Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter
4 HFHI has helped people in over 30 countries
5 Partnership housing means that HFHI works with a government agency
Answer the questions
1 What social problem do you think Habitat for Humanity International is helping to solve?
2 Who founded HFHI?
3 How many people in the U.S have been helped build their homes?
4 How do Jimmy and Rosalynn help to build houses?

Bài 77 Read the passage and then do the exercises that follow
Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), which means “Doctors Without Borders”, was established in 1971 It is now the world’s largest independent organisation that provides emergency medical relief The aim of the organisation is to help people who have suffered badly in wars or natural disasters, such as earthquakes or floods
Each year, about 3,000 people are sent abroad to work in over seventy different countries worldwide MSF relies on volunteer professionals but also works closely with local professionals; in most projects, there are seven local staff members to every one foreigner Volunteers are paid about $800 a month and receive travel expenses They usually work for nine months to a year on a project and then go home; however, about 50% of volunteers go on more than one mission One volunteer reports, “Working in politically sensitive areas with limited resources can be
frustrating, but there is huge satisfaction in making even a small or temporary difference to people What better recommendation than to say I’m about to leave on a third mission!”
What qualities and skills do you need to become a volunteer? You have to be able to deal with stress, and you need
to be able to work independently as well as in a team You are not required, however, to have medical
qualifications Besides medical professionals, MSF needs the skilled support of technical staff such as building engineers and food experts
The reaction of volunteers returning from MSF speaks for itself “One of my biggest challenges was organising a team to open a new hospital in a town that had had no medical care for three years,” one volunteer said This
volunteer concluded that the project was a success for two reasons: the reduction of deaths and the fact that the local people were so thankful Another volunteer said, “With MSF, I have had the chance to travel and test my skills to the limits both professionally and personally The rewards can be enormous.”
Fill T(True) or F (False) to the following statements For the false statement, write the true information
1 Médecins Sans Frontières provides worldwide emergency medical relief
2 There are more local people than foreigners working on most MSF projects
3 Most volunteers work on only one project
4 You have to be a medical professional to volunteer for MSF

MY MOST EMBARRASSING EXPERIENCE
My most embarrassing experience happened a few years ago, when I was a grade 9 student In those days, my biggest dream was a red hat - a floppy cotton hat like the one my pop star idol wore in her video clip I thought I would look great in it
My father knew this, so on my birthday he gave me some money so that I could buy the hat for myself I was
extremely excited and decided to go to the shop at once I got on the bus and sat down next to a schoolboy about my age The boy glanced at me and turned away There was a sneaky look on his face, but I didn't think much about it
I was busy imagining how I would look in the hat After a while, I turned round and noticed that the boy's
schoolbag was open Inside it, I saw a wad of dollar notes exactly like the ones my father had given me I quickly looked into my own bag - the notes had gone! I was sure that the boy was a thief He had stolen my money I didn't want to make a fuss, so I decided just to take my money back from the schoolboy's bag, without saying a word about it So I carefully put my hand into the boy's bag, took the notes and put them in my own bag
With the money I bought the pretty hat of my dreams When I got home, I showed it to my father
"How did you pay for it?" he asked
"With the money you gave me for my birthday, of course, Dad," I replied
"Oh? What's that then?" he asked, as he pointed to a wad of dollar notes on the table
Can you imagine how I felt then?
