Today’s cars are smaller, safer, cleaner, and more economical than their predecessors, but the car of the future will be far
more pollution-free than those on the road today Several new types of automobile engines have already been developed thanrun on alternative sources of power, such as electricity, compressed natural gas, methanol, steam, hydrogen, and propane.Electricity, however, is the only zero-emission option presently available
Although electric vehicles will not be truly practical until a powerful, compact battery or other dependable source of
current is available, transport experts foresee a new assortment of electric vehicles entering everyday life: shorter-rangecommuter electric cars, three-wheeled neighbourhood cars, electric delivery vans, bikes and trolleys
As automakers work to develop practical electrical vehicles, urban planners and utility engineers are focusing on
infrastructure systems to support and make the best use of the new cars Public charging facilities will need to be as common
as today’s gas stations Public parking spots on the street or in commercial lots will need to be equipped with devices thatallow drivers to charge their batteries while they stop, dine, or attend a concert To encourage the use of electric vehicles, themost convenient parking in transportation centers might be reserved for electric cars
Planners foresee electric shuttle buses, trains, buses and neighborhood vehicles all meeting at transit centers that wouldhave facilities for charging and renting Commuters will be able to rent a variety of electric cars to suit their needs: lighttrucks, one-person three-wheelers, small cars, or electric/gasoline hybrid cars for longer trips, which will no doubt take place
on automated freeways capable of handling five times the number of vehicles that can be carried by freeway today
Question 32: The following electrical vehicles are all mentioned in the passage EXCEPT
Question 33: The passage would most likely be followed by details about
A electric shuttle buses B pollution restrictions in the future
Question 34: It can be inferred from the passage that
A the present electric engines are the best option as being practical
B electricity is the best alternative source of power as it is almost free of pollution
C many new types of electric engines have been developed
D the present cars are more economical than their future generation
Question 35: According to the passage, public parking lots of the future will be
A equipped with charging devices B much larger than they are today
C as common as today’s gas stations D more convenient than they are today
Trang 3Question 36: The word "charging" in this passage refers to
Question 37: The author’s purpose in the passage is to
A support the invention of electric cars
B criticize conventional vehicles
C narrate a story about alternative energy vehicles
D describe the possibilities for transportation in the future
Question 38: In the second paragraph, the author implies that
A a dependable source of electric energy will eventually be developed.
B electric vehicles are not practical for the future
C everyday life will stay much the same in the future.
D a single electric vehicle will eventually replace several modes of transportation
Question 39: The word "compact" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to
Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word(s) CLOSEST in meaning to the underlined word (s) in each of the following questions.

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 42 to 48
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 pollutantswere limited to compounds that could be seen or smelled - a far cry from the extensive list of harmful substances knowntoday As technology has developed and knowledge of health aspects of various chemicals has increased, the list of airpollutants 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 Asthe 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 bedominant and may temporarily overload the natural purification scheme of the cycles The result is an concentration ofnoxious chemicals in the air The concentrations at which the adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrationsthat 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 theconcentration that would occur naturally in the area For example, sulfur dioxide has detectable health effects at 0.08 parts permillion (ppm), which is about 400 times its natural level Carbon monoxide, however has a natural level of 0.1 ppm and is notusually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm
Question 42: Which of the following is best supported by the passage?
A Scientists should be consulted in order to establish uniform limits for all air pollutants.
B To effectively control pollution, local government should regularly review their air pollution laws.
C Human activities have been effective in reducing air pollution.
D One of the most important steps in preserving natural lands is to better enforce air pollution laws.
Question 43: According to the passage, the numerical value of the concentration level of a substance is only useful if
A it can be calculated quickly B the other substances in the area are known
C the natural level is also known D it is in a localized area
Question 44: The word "adversely" is closest in meaning to
Question 45: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that
A Most pollutants today can be seen or smelled.
B a substance becomes an air pollutant only in cities.
C water vapour is an air pollutant in localized areas.
D the definition of air pollution will continue to change.
Question 46: According to the passage, human-generated air pollution in localized regions
A can be dwarfed by nature's output of pollutants.
B will damage area outside of the localized regions.
C can overwhelm the natural system removing pollutants.
D will react harmfully with natural pollutants.
Question 47: What does the passage mainly discuss?
Trang 4A What constitutes an air pollutant B The effects of compounds added to the atmosphere
C The economic impact of air pollution D How much harm air pollutants can cause.
Question 48: The word "these" in the second paragraph refers to
A the compounds moved to the water or soil B the components in biogeochemical cycles.
C the various chemical reactions D the pollutants from the developing Earth

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 pollutantswere limited to compounds that could be seen or smelled - a far cry from the extensive list of harmful substances knowntoday As technology has developed and knowledge of health aspects of various chemicals has increased, the list of airpollutants 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 Asthe Earth developed, the concentration of these pollutants was altered by various chemical reactions; they became
Trang 11components 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 bedominant and may temporarily overload the natural purification scheme of the cycles The result is an concentration ofnoxious chemicals in the air The concentrations at which the adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrationsthat 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 theconcentration that would occur naturally in the area For example, sulfur dioxide has detectable health effects at 0.08 parts permillion (ppm), which is about 400 times its natural level Carbon monoxide, however has a natural level of 0.1 ppm and is notusually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm

Today’s cars are smaller, safer, cleaner, and more economical than their predecessors, but the car of the future will be far
more pollution-free than those on the road today Several new types of automobile engines have already been developed thanrun on alternative sources of power, such as electricity, compressed natural gas, methanol, steam, hydrogen, and propane.Electricity, however, is the only zero-emission option presently available
Although electric vehicles will not be truly practical until a powerful, compact battery or other dependable source of
current is available, transport experts foresee a new assortment of electric vehicles entering everyday life: shorter-rangecommuter electric cars, three-wheeled neighbourhood cars, electric delivery vans, bikes and trolleys
As automakers work to develop practical electrical vehicles, urban planners and utility engineers are focusing on
infrastructure systems to support and make the best use of the new cars Public charging facilities will need to be as common
as today’s gas stations Public parking spots on the street or in commercial lots will need to be equipped with devices thatallow drivers to charge their batteries while they stop, dine, or attend a concert To encourage the use of electric vehicles, themost convenient parking in transportation centers might be reserved for electric cars
Planners foresee electric shuttle buses, trains, buses and neighborhood vehicles all meeting at transit centers that wouldhave facilities for charging and renting Commuters will be able to rent a variety of electric cars to suit their needs: lighttrucks, one-person three-wheelers, small cars, or electric/gasoline hybrid cars for longer trips, which will no doubt take place
on automated freeways capable of handling five times the number of vehicles that can be carried by freeway today
Question 43: The following electrical vehicles are all mentioned in the passage EXCEPT
Question 44: The word "charging" in this passage refers to
Question 45: The passage would most likely be followed by details about
C pollution restrictions in the future D the neighbourhood of the future

A electric vehicles are not practical for the future
B a dependable source of electric energy will eventually be developed.
C everyday life will stay much the same in the future.
D a single electric vehicle will eventually replace several modes of transportation
Question 48: It can be inferred from the passage that
A the present electric engines are the best option as being practical
B electricity is the best alternative source of power as it is almost free of pollution
C many new types of electric engines have been developed
D the present cars are more economical than their future generation
Question 49: The author’s purpose in the passage is to
A criticize conventional vehicles
B narrate a story about alternative energy vehicles
C describe the possibilities for transportation in the future
D support the invention of electric cars
Question 50: According to the passage, public parking lots of the future will be
A equipped with charging devices B as common as today’s gas stations
