It used to be that people would drink coffee or tea in the morning to pick them up and get them going for the day Then cola drinks hit the market With lots of caffeine and sugar, these beverages soon became the pick-me-up of choice for many adults and teenagers Now drink companies are putting out so-called
“energy drinks.” These beverages have the specific aim of giving tired consumers more energy
One example of a popular energy drink is Red Bull The company that puts out this beverage has
stated in interviews that Red Bull is not a thirst quencher Nor is it meant to be a fluid replacement drink for
athletes Instead, the beverage is meant to revitalize a tired consumer’s body and mind In order to do this, the makers of Red Bull, and other energy drinks, typically add vitamins and certain chemicals to their beverages The added chemicals are like chemicals that the body naturally produces for energy The
vitamins, chemicals, caffeine, and sugar found in these beverages all seem like a sure bet to give a person energy
Health professionals are not so sure, though For one thing, there is not enough evidence to show that all of the vitamins added to energy drinks actually raise a person’s energy level Another problem is that there are so many things in the beverages Nobody knows for sure how all of the ingredients in energy drinks work together
Dr Brent Bauer, one of the directors at the Mayo Clinic in the US, cautions people about believing
all the claims energy drinks make He says, “It is plausible if you put all these things together, you will get a
good result.” However, Dr Bauer adds the mix of ingredients could also have a negative impact on the body
“We just don’t know at this point,” he says
(Trích từ đề minh họa lần 1, 2017)

C Red Bull is the best energy drink D Teenagers should not choose energy drinks Question 40: The word “it” in the second paragraph refers to .
A one example B the company C Red Bull D thirst quencher
Trang 4Question 41: According to the passage, what makes it difficult for researchers to know if an energy drink
gives people energy?
A Natural chemicals in a person‘s body B The average age of the consumer
C The number of beverage makers D The mixture of various ingredients

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 44 to 50
The cause of tooth decay is acid, which is produced by bacteria in the mouth The acid removes minerals from tooth enamel, allowing tooth decay to begin; the saliva in your mouth encourages
remineralization and neutralizes the acid The rate at which bacteria in the mouth produce acid depends on the amount of plaque on the teeth, the composition of the microbial flora, and whether the bacteria of the plaque have been "primed" by frequent exposure to sugar To keep your teeth healthy, a regular dental hygiene program should be followed
Removing plaque with a toothbrush and dental floss temporarily reduces the numbers of bacteria in the
mouth and thus reduces tooth decay It also makes the surfaces of the teeth more accessible, enabling saliva
to neutralize acid and remineralize lesions If fluoride is present in drinking water when teeth are forming, some fluoride is incorporated into the enamel of the teeth, making them more resistant to attack by acid Fluoride toothpaste seems to act in another way, by promoting the remineralization of early carious lesions
In addition to a regular dental hygiene program, a good way to keep your teeth healthy is to reduce your intake of sweet food The least cavity-causing way to eat sweets is to have them with meals and not
between The number of times you eat sweets rather than the total amount determines how much harmful acid the bacteria in your saliva produce But the amount of sweets influences the quality of your saliva Avoid, if you can, sticky sweets that stay in your mouth a long time Also try to brush and floss your teeth after eating sugary foods Even rinsing your mouth with water is effective
Whenever possible, eat foods with fiber, such as raw carrot sticks, apples, celery sticks, etc., that
scrape off plaque, acting as a toothbrush Cavities can be greatly reduced if these rules are followed when
eating sweets
Question 44: What does this passage mainly discuss?
C Ways to keep your teeth healthy D Fluoridization and cavities
Question 45: The word “it” refers to _.
A dental floss B bacteria C removal of plaque D plaque
Question 46: According to the passage, all of the following statements about plaque are true
EXCEPT _
A It consists of acid producing bacteria
B It is not affected by eating sweets
C It can be removed from teeth by brushing and flossing
D It reduces the positive effect of saliva
Question 47: We can infer from the passage that one benefit of fluoride to healthy teeth is _.
A It strengthens tooth enamel B It stimulates saliva production
C It makes teeth whiter D It is a replacement for brushing and flossing in dental care Question 48: What can be concluded from the passage about sweets?
A All sweets should be avoided.
B Sweets should be eaten with care.
C It is better to eat sweets a little at a time throughout the day.
D Sticky sweets are less harmful than other sweets
Question 49: The author of the passage states that the amount of acid produced by the bacteria in your
saliva increases _
A with the amount of sweets you eat B with the number of times you eat sweets
C if you eat sweets with your meals D if you eat sticky sweets
Question 50: The word "scrape off" is closest in meaning to _.
A repel B rub together with C remove D dissolve

Câu gốc của đề bài là "My mother said to me, 'Have you finished your homework yet?'" Ta có thể thấy rằng câu nói của mẹ là một câu hỏi, và cần được trả lời bằng một phát biểu khẳng định hoặc phủ định về việc hoàn thành bài tập về nhà
A là đáp án chính xác vì nó sử dụng cấu trúc câu hỏi gián tiếp ("asked me if") để diễn đạt lại câu hỏi gốc của
mẹ
B là không chính xác vì nó chỉ đưa ra lệnh để hoàn thành bài tập về nhà, trong khi câu hỏi gốc không đòi hỏi điều này
C là không chính xác vì nó chỉ đưa ra lời nhắc nhở, trong khi câu hỏi gốc đang hỏi về việc hoàn thành bài tập về nhà
D là không chính xác vì nó sử dụng từ "whether" (có hay không) trong khi câu hỏi gốc đã sử dụng từ "have" (đã hoàn thành)
(Cấu trúc: S + asked(+O)/wanted to know/wondered + Wh-words + S + V)

nó cũng phải có “had” hoặc “was/were”
