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

All mammals feed their young Beluga whale mothers, for example, nurse their calves for some twenty months, until they are about to give birth again and their young are able to find their own food The behavior of feeding of the young is built into the reproductive system It is a nonelective part of parental care and the defining feature of a mammal, the most important thing that mammals whether marsupials, platypuses, spiny anteaters, or placental mammals have in common

But not all animal parents, even those that tend their offspring to the point of hatching or birth,

feed their young Most egg-guarding fish do not, for the simple reason that their young are so much smaller than the parents and eat food that is also much smaller than the food eaten by adults In reptiles, the crocodile mother protects her young after they have hatched and takes them down to the water, where they will find food, but she does not actually feed them Few insects feed their young after hatching, but

some make other arrangement, provisioning their cells and nests with caterpillars and spiders that they

have paralyzed with their venom and stored in a state of suspended animation so that their larvae might have a supply of fresh food when they hatch

For animals other than mammals, then, feeding is not intrinsic to parental care Animals add it

to their reproductive strategies to give them an edge in their lifelong quest for descendants The most

vulnerable moment in any animal's life is when it first finds itself completely on its own, when it must forage and fend for itself Feeding postpones that moment until a young animal has grown to such a size

that it is better able to cope Young that are fed by their parents become nutritionally independent at a much greater fraction of their full adult size And in the meantime those young are shielded against the

vagaries of fluctuating of difficult-to-find supplies Once a species does take the step of feeding its young, the young become totally dependent on the extra effort If both parents are removed, the young generally

do not survive

Question 23 What can be inferred from the passage about the practice of animal parents feeding their

A It is unknown among fish B It is unrelated to the size of the young

C It is dangerous for the parents D It is most common among mammals

Question 24 The word "provisioning" in line 13 is closest in meaning to

A supplying B preparing C building D expanding

Question 25 According to the passage, how do some insects make sure their young have food?

A By storing food near their young

B By locating their nests or cells near spiders and caterpillars

C By searching for food some distance from their nest

D By gathering food from a nearby water source

Question 26 The word "edge" in line 17 is closest in meaning to

A opportunity B advantage C purpose D rest

Question 28 According to the passage, animal young are most defenseless when

Question 50 Species like snakes, lizards, coyotes, squirrels, and jack rabbits seems to exist

In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a

greater priority on harnessing alternative energy sources Fortunately, there are a number of readily

available, renewable resources that are both cost- effective and earth – friendly Two such resources are solar power and geothermal power

Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide energy consumption 6,000 times over And solar energy is easily harnessed through the use of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity In the US alone, more than 100, 000 homes are equipped with solar electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles And in other parts of

the world, including many developing countries, the use of solar system is growing steadily.

Another alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power, which creates energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth Hot water and steam that are trapped in underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which is produces electricity Geothermal energy is 50, 000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources And as with solar power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple

A prime example of effective geothermal use in Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity where over

80 percent of private homes are heated by geothermal power

Solar and geothermal energy are just two of promising renewable alternatives to conventional energy sources The time is long overdue to invest in the development and use of alternative energy on global scale

Question 55 What is the main topic of this passage ?

A The benefits of solar and wind power over conventional energy sources

B How energy resources are tapped from nature

C Two types of alternative energy sources that should be further utilized

D Examples of the use of energy sources worldwide

Question 55 According to the passage, why should we consider using alternative energy sources ?

A Because fossil fuels are no longer available

B Because global warming has increased the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth

C Because they are free and available worldwide

D Because conventional energy resources are being depleted, and they cause environmental damage

Question 57 Which of the following words could best replace the word “ harnessing”

A Capturing B Harassing C Depleting D Exporting

Question 58 According to the passage, what can be inferred about solar roof tiles?

A They are being used in many undeveloped countries

B They can convert geothermal energy to electricity

C They are more expensive than solar panels

D They contain photovoltaic cells

Question 59 According to the passage, how is solar energy production similar to geothermal energy

production ?

A They both require the use of a generator

B They both use heat from the earth’s surface

C They both require fairly simple technology

D They are both conventional and costly

Question 60 Where is the best place in the passage to insert the following sentence:

“Although the US is not utilizing geothermal resources to this extent, the Western US has a similar capacity to generate geothermal power”

A after the phrase “earth-friendly”

B after the phrase “growing steadily”

C after the phrase “by geothermal power”

D after the phrase “global scale”

Question 61 According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE about solar power ?

A There is very little of it available in Iceland

B It is being used in 100, 000 private homes worldwide

C It is 6,000 times more powerful than energy from fossil fuels

D There is enough of it to far exceed the energy needs of the world

Question 62 What can be inferred about the use of geothermal energy in Iceland?

A It is widely used form of energy for heating homes.

B Twenty percent of the geothermal energy created is used to heat businesses

C It is not effective for use in private homes

D It is 80 times more effective than traditional forms of energy

Question 63 What does the author imply about alternative energy sources ?

A Many different types of alternative energy sources exist

B Most alternative energy sources are too impractical for private use

C Alternative energy is too expensive for developing countries to produce

D Solar and geothermal energy are the effective forms of alternative power

Question 64 What best describes the author’s purpose in writing the passage ?

A To warn people about the hazards of fossil fuel use

B To describe the advantages and disadvantages of alternative energy use

C To convince people of the benefits of developing alternative energy sources

D To outline the problems and solutions connected with global warming

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.

A number of factors related to the voice reveal the personality of the speaker The first is the broad area of communication, which includes imparting information by use of language, communicating with a group or an individual, and specialized communication through performance A person conveys thoughts and ideas through choice of words, by a tone of voice that is pleasant or unpleasant, gentle

or harsh, by the rhythm that is inherent within the language itself, and by speech rhythms that are flowing and regular or uneven and hesitant, and finally, by the pitch and melody of the utterance When speaking before a group, a person's tone may indicate unsureness or fright, confidence or

calm At interpersonal levels, the tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and above the words chosen, or may belie them Here the speaker's tone can consciously or unconsciously reflect

intuitive sympathy or antipathy, lack of concern or interest, fatigue, anxiety, enthusiasm or excitement, all of which are usually discernible by the acute listener Public performance is a manner

of communication that is highly specialized with its own techniques for obtaining effects by voice

and /or gesture The motivation derived from the text, and in the case of singing, the music, in

combination with the performer's skills, personality, and ability to create empathy will determine the

success of artistic, political, or pedagogic communication.

Second, the voice gives psychological clues to a person's self-image, perception of others, and emotional health Self-image can be indicated by a tone of voice that is confident, pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing, or exuberant, to name only a few personality traits Also the sound may give a clue to the facade or mask of that person, for example, a shy person hiding behind an overconfident front How a speaker perceives the listener's receptiveness, interest, or sympathy in any given

conversation can drastically alter the tone of presentation, by encouraging or discouraging the speaker Emotional health is evidenced in the voice by free and melodic sounds of the happy, by

constricted and harsh sound of the angry, and by dull and lethargic qualities of the depressed.

Câu 31: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The function of the voice in performance B The production of speech

C The connection between voice and personality D Communication styles

Câu 32: What does the author mean by staring that, "At interpersonal levels, tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and above the words chosen" (lines 7-8)?

C Feelings are more difficult to express than ideas.

Câu 33: The word "Here" in line 8 refers to _.

13?
