The first successful manned mission to the moon will always remain a profoundly heroic page in the human history In 1969, with the space technologies being still rather primitive, but the exploration spirit and scientific curiosity burning high and bright, the USA started its dramatic Apollo lunar program On July 20th, 1969, the first in the history of the humankind manned flight landed on the moon with a fascinating triumph Astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first man from the planet Earth to step on the surface of the moon
Apollo 11, launched on July 16 of 1969 from the Kennedy Space Center, happened to be the fifth mission of the American Apollo program on the manned exploration of the moon That was also the third manned flight towards the moon The crew on board of Apollo 11 included commander Neil Alden Armstrong, lunar module pilot Edwin Eugene Aldrin, and command module pilot Michael Collins
Almost a million people were witnessing the spacecraft launch from the nearby beaches and highways
Millions of other people, including American President Nixon, were anxiously watching that grand event
on TV
After Apollo 11 had reached the orbit of the moon, the astronauts started preparing for the historical lunar landing The convenient, smooth and flat, landing site in the area had been found The descending
of the lunar module Eagle carrying Armstrong and Aldrin was controlled by computers from the NASA Mission Control Center in Texas Neil Armstrong had to quickly react to prevent a disaster He took manual control of their lunar module and, at last, at 20:17 of the 20th of July, the first manned mission successfully landed on the moon They only had 30 seconds of fuel left to complete the landing! In six and a half hours after the Eagle had descended, Neil Armstrong, for the first time in the history of the humankind, stepped onto the surface of the moon His lunar words “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind” became famous all over the world Later, he was followed by Aldrin Despite some technical complications, hundreds of millions of people on the Earth were able to see the first
Trang 4For the remaining hours that the piloted lunar module spent on the moon’s surface, the astronauts planted on the moon the US flag and left a mission patch with various Earth messages They also were experimenting with getting adjusted to the lunar gravity and balance by trying different step methods, were photographing, writing down their impressions and observations, and drilling the core layer of the lunar surface to obtain samples of the moon’s soil More than 48 pounds of lunar material were collected and loaded into the module Having completed their dramatic mission, both astronauts were able to safely return the Eagle back to the lunar orbit Several hours later, Apollo 11 with the three courageous astronauts on board was on its safe way back to the Earth, which they reached on July 24th The unprecedented, first manned voyage to a surface of another cosmic body had been accomplished with a stunning triumph

Trang 5Read 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 55 to 64
An air pollutant is defined as a compound added directly or indirectly by humans to the atmosphere in
such quantities as to affect humans, animals, vegetation, or materials adversely Air pollution requires a
very flexible definition that permits continuous changes When the first air pollution laws were established in England in the fourteenth century, air pollutants were limited to compounds that could be seen or smelled- a far cry from the extensive list of harmful substances known today As technology has developed and knowledge of health aspects of various chemicals has increased, the list of air pollutants has lengthened In the future, even water vapor might be considered an air pollutant under certain conditions
Many of more important air pollutants, such as sulfur oxides, carbon monoxides and nitrogen oxides are found in nature As the Earth developed, the concentration of these pollutants was altered by various chemical reactions; they became components in biogeochemical cycles These serve as an air purification scheme by allowing the compounds to move from the air to the water or soil On a global basis, nature's output of these compounds dwarfs that resulting from human activities
However, human production usually occurs in a localized area, such as a city In such region, human output may be dominant and may temporarily overload the natural purification scheme of the cycles The result is an concentration of noxious chemicals in the air The concentrations at which the adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrations that the pollutants would have in the absence of human activities The actual concentration need not be large for a substance to be a pollutant; in fact, the numerical value tells us little until we know how much of an increase this represents over the
concentration that would occur naturally in the area For example, sulfur dioxide has detectable health
effects at 0 08 parts per million (ppm), which is about 400 times its natural level Carbon monoxide, however has a natural level of 0 1 ppm and is not usually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm
Câu 55: The word "detectable " is closest in meaning to .
Câu 56: The word "localized " is closest in meaning to .
Câu 57: The word "These" in the second paragraph refers to .
A the components in biogeochemical cycles
B the pollutants from the developing Earth
C the various chemical reactions
D the compounds moved to the water or soil
Câu 58: According to the passage, the numerical value of the concentration level of a substance is
only useful if
A the other substances in the area are known B the natural level is also known
C it is in a localized area D it can be calculated quickly
Câu 59: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that .
A a substance becomes an air pollutant only in cities
B the definition of air pollution will continue to change
C most pollutants today can be seen or smelled
D water vapor is an air pollutant in localized areas
Câu 60: According to the passage, human- generated air pollution in localized regions .
A will react harmfully with natural pollutants
B can be dwarfed by nature's output of pollutants
C will damage area outside of the localized regions
D can overwhelm the natural system removing pollutants
Câu 61: The word "adversely " is closest in meaning to .
A negatively B considerably C quickly D admittedly
Câu 62: Which of the following is best supported by the passage?
A Human activities have been effective in reducing air pollution.
Trang 6C Scientists should be consulted in order to establish uniform limits for all air pollutants.
D To effectively control pollution, local government should regularly review their air pollution laws Câu 63: For which of the following reasons can natural pollutants play an important role in
controlling air pollution?
A They have existed since the Earth developed.
B They're less harmful to living beings than other pollutants.
C They occur in greater quantities than other pollutants.
D They function as part of a purification process.
Câu 64: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A The economic impact of air pollution B How much harm air pollutants can cause.
C The effects of compounds added to the atmosphere D What constitutes an air pollutant.
