IV Read the passage choose the best option to complete the sentences Write your answer in the space provided.
Because writing has become so important in our culture, we sometimes think of it as more real than speech A little thought, however, will show why speech is primary and writing secondary to language Human beings have been writing ( as far as we can tell from surviving evidence) for at least
5000 years, but they have been talking for much longer, doubless ever since there have been human beings
When writing did develop, it was derived from and represented speech, although imperfectly Even today there are spoken languages that have no written form Further more, we all learn to talk well before we learn to write; any human child who is not severely handicapped physically or mentally will learn to talk: a normal human being cannot be prevented from doing so On the other hand, it takes
a special effort to learn to write In the past, may intelligent and useful members of society did not acquire the skill, and even to day many who speak languages with writing systems never learn to read
or write, while some who learn the rudiments of those skills do so only imperfectly
To affirm the primacy of speech over writing is not, however, to disparage the latter One
advantage writing has over speech is that it is more permanent and makes possible the records that
any civilization must have Thus, if speaking makes us human, writing makes us civilized
Câu 71 We sometimes think of writing as more real than speech because…………
A people have been writing since there have been human beings

C it has become very important in our culture
D writing is secondary to language
Câu 72 Normal human beings -
Trang 7A learn to talk after learning to write B learn to write before learning to talk
C learn to talk before learning to write D learn to write and to talk at the same time Câu 73 According to the passage, writing
-A is represented perfectly by speech B represents speech, but not perfectly
C is imperfect, but less so than speech D developed from imperfect speech

Câu 75 Which of the following is NOT true?
A Speech is essential but writing has important benefits
B It is easy to acquire the writing skill
C Writing has become so important in our culture
D Writing represents speech, but not perfectly
