IX Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

Television

An American TV network has had an international hit with the drama "24” a thriller known for its suspense and often graphic violence Over the past year, controversy has surrounded the series because of its portrayal ofMuslim terrorists and its frequent scenes of torture But the content of “24” is not the only thing that would

have been unthinkable on prime−time television 20 years ago Its form also represents a major change in modem TV: during each episode‟s 44 minutes − a real−time hour, minus 16 minutes for commercials – the

show connects the lives of 21 different characters, each with their own personalities and specific relationships

with other characters Nine different story lines (or “threads") arc depicted, each involving events and

information revealed in previous episodes [ I ]

[2] For years many people have assumed that popular culture is in a state of decline rapidly degenerating

into “junk culture" with no worthwhile purpose But an interesting new book challenges that assumption.

“Everything Bad is Good for You: How Today‟s Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter," by Steven Johnson, makes a persuasive argument that today‟s complex TV dramas and other pop culture Products gives healthy mental exercise He calls the use or complex, interwoven plot lines involving multiple characters

“multi−threading”, and it is a new and growing phenomenon in TV To keep up with shows like “24", he points

out, you must “pay attention, make inferences, track shifting social relationships", and these cognitivechallenges are changịng our mental development for the better [3]

[4] The most obvious change in the last five years of narrative entertainment is the rise of reality TV, Surely,you might be thinking, watching “Survivor" or “The Bachelor” cannot possibly raise anyone's IQ “Survivor” is now in its tenth season, and “The Bachelor” is in its seventh But as Johnson tells us lately “even the junk has

improved” The new reality shows are like games: they arc series of competitive tests, each more challenging

than the last, and with rules that must be learned as you play On “Survivor" for instance, the participants and the audience know the general objective of the game but each episode brings new challenges that require quickthinking Success in these games calls for the intellectual labor of finding the weak spots in the rules and inyour opponents This labor is done not just by the stars of the shows but the viewers at home as well This is

what makes these shows such fun to watch − the human mind enjoys being challenged As Johnson writes,

Studies about how students use their time might shed light on whether they face increased academic and financial pressures compared with earlier eras

Based on data about how students are spending time, academic or financial pressures don’t seem to be greater now than a generation ago

The data show that full-time students in all types of colleges study much less now than they did a generation ago - a full 10 hours a week less Students are also receiving significantly higher grades So it appears that academic pressures are, in fact, considerably lower than they used to be

In other words, full-time students do not appear to be studying less in order to work more They appear to be studying less and spending the extra time on leisure activities or fun It seems hard to imagine that students feeling increased financial pressures would respond by taking more leisure

Based on how students are spending their time then, it doesn’t look as though academic or financial pressures are greater now than a generation ago The time-use data don’t speak directly to social pressures, and it may well be that these have become more intense lately

In one recent set of data, students reported spending more than 23 hours per week either socializing with friends or playing on the computer for fun Social

activities, in person or on computer, would seem to have become the major focus of

campus life It is hard to tell what kinds of pressures would be associated with this change

Câu 35: The study’s conclusion that students’ workload now is not greater than

before is based on _

A what students achieve with greater load B how students spend their time

C how students work through college D what college demands from

students

Câu 36: Research studies have shown that pressures put on students nowadays

are

A not greater than the past B getting ever greater

C much greater than the past D more diversified Câu 37: Students get higher grades as

The time-use data don’t suggest that students feel greater financial pressures, either When the time savings and lower opportunity costs are factored in, college appears less expensive for most students than it was in the 1960s And though there are now full-time students working to pay while in college, they study less even when paid work choices are held constantly

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 45 to 54

Panel painting, common in thirteenth- and fourteenth-century Europe, involved a painstaking, laborious process Wooden planks were joined, covered with gesso

to prepare the surface for painting, and then polished smooth with special tools

On this perfect surface, the artist would sketch a composition with chalk, refine it with inks, and then begin the deliberate process of applying thin layers of

egg tempera paint (egg yolk in which pigments are suspended) with small brushes The successive layering of these meticulously applied paints produced the final translucent colors

Backgrounds or gold were made by carefully applying sheets of gold leaf, and then embellishing of decorating the gold leaf by punching it with a metal rod on which a pattern had been embossed Every step in the process was slow and deliberate The quick-drying tempera demanded that the artist know exactly where each stroke be placed before the brush met the panel, and it required the use of fine brushes It was, therefore, an ideal technique for emphasizing the hard linear edges and pure, fine areas of color that were so much a part of the overall aesthetic of the time The notion that an artist could or would dash off

an idea in a fit of spontaneous inspiration was completely alien to these deliberately produced works

Furthermore, making these paintings was so time-consuming that it demanded assistance All such work was done by collective enterprise in the workshops

The painter or master who is credited with having created the painting may have designed the work and overseen its production, but it is highly unlikely that the artist’s hand applied every stroke of the brush More likely, numerous assistants,

who had been trained to imitate the artist’s style, applied the paint The

carpenter’s shop probably provided the frame and perhaps supplied the panel, and yet another shop supplied the gold Thus, not only many hands, but also many shops were involved in the final product

In spite of problems with their condition, restoration, and preservation, many panel paintings have survived, and today many of them are housed in museum collections

Scientists do not yet thoroughly understand just how the body of an individual becomes sensitive to a substance that is harmless or even wholesome for the average person Milk, wheat, and egg, for example, rank among the most healthful and widely used foods Yet these foods can cause persons sensitive to them to suffer greatly At first, the body of the individual is not harmed by coming into contact with the substance After a varying interval of time, usually longer than a few weeks, the body becomes sensitive to it, and an allergy has begun to develop Sometimes it's hard to figure out if you have a food allergy, since it can show up so

many different ways Your symptoms could be caused by many other problems

You may have rashes, hives, joint pains mimicking arthritis, headaches, irritability,

or depression The most common food allergies are to milk, eggs, seafood, wheat, nuts, seeds, chocolate, oranges, and tomatoes Many of these allergies will not develop if these foods are not fed to an infant until her or his intestines mature at

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

Iron production was revolutionized in the early eighteenth century when coke

was first used instead of charcoal for refining iron ore Previously the poor quality

of the iron had restricted its use in architecture to items such as chains and tie bars for supporting arches, vaults, and walls With the improvement in refining ore, it was now possible to make cast-iron beams, columns, and girders During the nineteenth century further advances were made, notably Bessemer's process for converting iron into steel, which made the material more commercially viable

Iron was rapidly adopted for the construction of bridges, because its strength was far greater than that of stone or timber, but its use in the architecture of buildings developed more slowly By 1800 a complete internal iron skeleton for buildings had been developed in industrial architecture replacing traditional timber

beams, but it generally remained concealed Apart from its low cost, the appeal of

iron as a building material lay in its strength, its resistance to fire, and its potential

to span vast areas As a result, iron became increasingly popular as a structural material for more traditional styles of architecture during the nineteenth century, but

it was invariably concealed

Significantly, the use of exposed iron occurred mainly in the new building types spawned by the Industrial Revolution: in factories, warehouses, commercial offices, exhibition hall, and railroad stations, where its practical advantages far outweighed its lack of status Designers of the railroad stations of the new age explored the

potential of iron, covering huge areas with spans that surpassed the great vaults of

medieval churches and cathedrals Paxton's Crystal Palace, designed to house the Great Exhibition of 1851, covered an area of 1.848 feet by 408 feet in prefabricated DeThiThu.Net

Trang 33

units of glass set in iron frames The Paris Exhibition of 1889 included both the widest span and the greatest height achieved so far with the Halle Des Machines, spanning 362 feet, and the Eiffel Tower 1,000 feet high However, these achievements were mocked by the artistic elite of Paris as expensive and ugly follies Iron, despite its structural advantages, had little aesthetic status The use of

an exposed iron structure in the more traditional styles of architecture was slower to develop

55 What does the passage mainly discuss?

A Advances in iron processing in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries

B The effects of the Industrial Revolution on traditional architectural styles

C Advantages of stone and timber over steel as a building material

D The evolution of the use of iron in architecture during the 1800's

56 The word "revolutionized" is closest in meaning to _

A quickly started B gradually opened C dramatically changed D

carefully examined

57 According to the passage, iron was NOT used for beams, columns, and girders

prior to the early eighteenth century because _

A all available iron was needed for other purposes

B limited mining capability made iron too expensive

C iron was considered too valuable for use in public buildings

D the use of charcoal for refining ore produced poor quality iron

58 Iron replaced stone and timber in the building of bridges because iron was considered

A more beautifulB new and modern C much stronger D

easier to transport

59 The word "it" refers to _

A industrial architecture B internal iron skeleton C stone

D strength

60 The word "surpassed" is closest in meaning to _

included

61 According to paragraph 3, the architectural significance of the Halle Des Machines was its _

prefabricated unites of glass

62 How did the artistic elite mentioned in the passage react to the buildings at the Paris Exhibition?

A They tried to copy them B They ridiculed them

them

63 It can be inferred that the delayed use of exposed iron structures in traditional styles of architecture is best explained by the _

A impracticality of using iron for small, noncommercial buildings

B association of iron architecture with the problems of the Industrial Revolution DeThiThu.Net

Trang 34

C general belief that iron offered less resistance to fire and harsh weather than traditional materials

D general perception that iron structures were not aesthetically pleasing

64 The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses _

A the gradual inclusion of exposed iron in traditional styles of architecture

B further improvements in iron processing methods

C the return to traditional building materials for use in commercial structures

D the decreased use of stone and timber as a building material
