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 from 1 to 10
Are organically grown foods the best choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grown and
marketed food products are now being debated Advocates of organic foods – a term whose meaning varies greatly – frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious than others
The growing interest of consumers in the safety and more nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or
inadequate in meeting nutritional needs Although most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance of written material advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction
As a result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore
Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for “no-aging” diets, new vitamins, and other wonder foods There are numerous
unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to
fertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains and the like One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods But in many cases consumers are
misled if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown
foods So there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food and buy only expensive organic foods instead

A conventionally grown foods are more readily available than organic foods
B organic foods can be more expensive but are often no better than conventionally grown foods
C too many farmers will stop using conventional method to grow food crops
D many organic foods are actually less nutritious than similar conventionally grown foods

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 followingquestions from 60 to 69
The ocean bottom- a region nearly 2.5 times greater than total land area of the Earth- is a vast frontier that even today is
largely unexplored and uncharted Until about a century ago , the deep-ocean floor was completely inaccessible , hidden
beneath waters averaging over 3,6000 meters deep Totally without light and subjected to intense pressures hundreds of times greater than at the Earth’s surface, deep-ocean bottom is a hostile environment to humans , in some ways as forbidding and remote as the void of outer space
Although researchers have taken samples of deep-ocean rocks and sediments for over a century, the first detailed global investigation of the ocean bottom did not actually start until 1968, with the beginning of the National Science Foundation’s Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Using techniques first developed for the offshore oil gas industry, the Dad’s drill ship , the Glomar Challenger, was able to maintain a steady position on the ocean’s surface and drill in very
deep waters, extracting samples of sediments and rock from the ocean floor
The Glomar Challenger completed 96 voyages in a 15 –year research program that ended in November 1983 During this time, the vessel logged 600,000 kilometers and took almost 20,000 core samples of seabed sediments and rocks at 624 drilling sites around the world The Glomar Challenger’s core samples have allowed geologists to reconstruct what the planet looked like hundreds of millions of years ago and to calculate what it will problem look like millions of years in the
future Today , largely on the strength of evidence gathered during the Glomar Challenger’s voyages, nearly all earth
Trang 4scientists agree on the theories of plate tectonics and continental drift that explain many of the geological processes that shape the Earth
The cores of sediment drilled by the Glomar Challenger have also yielded information critical to understanding the world’s past climates Deep-ocean sediments provide a climatic record stretching back hundreds of millions of years, because
they are largely isolated from the mechanical erosion and the intense chemical and biological activity that rapidly destroy
much land-based evidence of past climates This record has already provided insights into the patterns and causes of past climatic change-information that may be used to predict future climates
Question 60: The author refers to the ocean bottom as a “frontier” because it _
Question 61: The word “inaccessible” is closest meaning to _
Question 62: The author mention outer space in the first paragraph because _
A the Earth’s climate millions of years ago was similar to condition in outer space

C rock formations in outré space are similar to those found on the ocean floor
D it is similar to the ocean floor in being alien to the human environment
Question 63: Which of the following is True of the Glmmer Challenger ?
Question 64 : The word “extracting” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to
Question 65: The Deep Sea Drilling Project was significant because it was
A composed of geologists from all over the world B attempt to find new sources of oil and gas
C the first extensive exploration of the ocean bottom D funded entirely by the gas and oil industry
Question 66: The word “strength” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to
Question 67: The word “they” in the last paragraph refers to
Question 68: The DSDP can be said to be in terms of geological exploration
Question 69: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as being a result of the Deep Sea Drilling Project ?
A Two geological theories became more widely accepted by scientists
B Information was revealed about the Earth’s past climatic changes
C Geologists observed forms of marine life never before seen
D Geologists were able to determine the Earth’s appearance hundreds of millions of years ago
