During the past half-century, our species has embarked on a remarkable social experiment For the first time
Trang 4in human history, great numbers of people - at all ages, in all places, of every political persuasion - have begun settling down as singletons Until the second half of the last century, most of us married young and parted only at death If death came early, we remarried quickly; if late, we moved in with family, or they with
us Now we marry later We divorce, and stay single for years or decades
The rise of living alone has produced significant social benefits, too Young and middle-aged solos have helped to revitalise cities, because they are more likely to spend money, socialise and participate in public life Contemporary solo dwellers in the US are primarily women: about 18 million, compared with 14 million men The majority, more than 16 million, are middle-aged adults between the ages of 35 and 64 The elderly account for about 11 million of the total Young adults between 18 and 34 number increased more than 5
million, compared with 500,000 in 1950, making them the fastest-growing segment of the solo-dwelling
population
Despite fears that living alone may be environmentally unsustainable, solos tend to live in apartments rather than in big houses, and in relatively green cities rather than in car-dependent suburbs There's good reason to
believe that people who live alone in cities consume less energy than if they coupled up and decamped to
pursue a single-family home
26 The best title for this passage could be _.
A the rise in divorce rates B figures about solo dwellers in the US
C the increase in solo living D solos' tendency towards living in apartments

D People now marry at young age and when they divorce, they remarry quickly.
28 The word "them" in paragraph 2 refers to _.
A young adults B the elderly C middle-aged adults D solo dwellers
29 In paragraph 2, all the following are the suggestions of the writer EXCEPT _.
A There are fewer middle-aged solos than the elderly who live alone.
B The number of the young adult choosing to live alone has increased the most rapidly.
C Solo dwellers have helped to renew their cities.
D In the US, more females choose to live alone than males.
30 The word "decamped" in paragraph 3 means _.
A quitted B settled down C lived separately D lived together
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
For all the talk of what humankind has done to cause destruction to the planet, we should not forget that
Trang 5nature itself is a (39) force, capable of doing damage on a huge scale The greenhouse effect and the hole in the ozone layer are indeed made worse by the industrialized society we live in (40) _, we must remember that there are certain species of plants and animals which, quite naturally, (41) off gases that are very harmful to the atmosphere And only 50 years ago in London, hundreds of people died from the smog (42) hung over the River Thames What is interesting here is that smoke and gases from industry, vehicles and fossil fuels were ingredients in this deadly mixture The (43) vital ingredient, though, was the completely natural fog, and who would have thought that could be harmful? In the early days of the industrial revolution, poets, painters and philosophers described how the polluted urban skies made them think of the end of the world.
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 following questions.
It's important to be able to articulate your dream job Not just for personal reasons, but also for when you're asked about it in interviews But, how can you even begin to describe your ideal job, especially to someone
who's clearly going to be judging your response? Just picking a place to start is a head-scratcher.
First, let's talk about what you're good at doing, or your strengths It's likely you've already had the chance to talk about this topic a bit during the interview, so it makes for a nice transition Highlight the skills that you
enjoy using most, not just the ones you're a superstar at This is about your dream job, so don't shy away
from mentioning any that you want to grow as well
Next, it's time to talk about what interests you Think big picture for this What drew you to your industry? What's something you did as a kid that's actually found its way into your work? What is it about your career that keeps you engaged? Weave that in
Giving a sense of what your career values are will give the interviewer an idea about what motivates you; it's
a good way to bring the focus back to the company you're interviewing for It also adds some extra complexity to your answer You're not just saying, "I want an interesting job that I'm good at." I mean, that's nice, but this is your dream job we're talking about!
Don't pigeonhole yourself with anything that official Instead, give the hiring manager a
more nuanced response by covering your skills, interests, and values He or she will get the chance to learn
more about you-and you have more flexibility to line up your career goals and the position you're applying for That's a win-win
36 Which best serves as the title for the passage?
Trang 6A The secret formula for a job interview B What makes for the dream job?
C Is “dream job" really possible? D Think proactively about your career.
37 The word "nuanced" in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to .
38 The word "head-scratcher" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.
39 The word "ones" in paragraph 2 refers to .
40 What is the tone of the passage?
41 According to the passage, what should interviewees NOT include in their answers?
A Their values B Their interests C Their engagement D their skills
42 It can be inferred from the passage that .
A Something relating to your childhood as well as your priorities in career shouldn't be mentioned to your
interviewer
B Being able to express your thoughts about your dream job wisely can help you a lot in a job interview.
C Taking advantage of your shyness in any job interview can definitely help impress your interviewer.
D Concentrating on your most outstanding ability to work for the company is a must in a job interview.
