The goal of Internet-based encyclopedia Wikipedia (www.wikipedia.org) is to give everyone on the planet access to information Like other encyclopedias, Wikipedia contains lots of information: more than 2.5 million articles in 200 different languages covering just about every subject Unlike other encyclopedias,
however, Wikipedia is not written by experts, but by ordinary people These writers are not paid and their
names are not published They contribute to Wikipedia simply because they want to share their knowledge
Trang 4Trang 4/6 - Mã đề: 157
Encyclopedias began in ancient times as collections of writings about all aspects of human knowledge
The word itself comes from ancient Greek, and means "a complete general education" Real popularity for
encyclopedias came in the nineteenth century in Europe and the United States, with the publication of encyclopedias written for ordinary readers With the invention of the CD-ROM, the same amount of information could be put on a few computer discs Then with the Internet, it became possible to create an online encyclopedia that could be constantly updated, like Microsoft's Encarta However, even Internet-based
encyclopedias like Encarta were written by paid experts At first, Wikipedia, the brainchild of Jimmy Wales,
a businessman in Chicago, was not so different from these In 2001, he had the idea for an Internet-based encyclopedia that would provide information quickly and easily to everyone Furthermore, that information would be available free, unlike other Internet encyclopedias at that time
But Wales, like everyone else, believed that people with special knowledge were needed to write the
articles, and so he began by hiring experts He soon changed his approach, however, as it took them a long
time to finish their work He decided to open up the encyclopedia in a radical new way, so that everyone would have access not only to the information, but also to the process of putting this information online To
do this, he used what is known as "Wiki" software (from the Hawaiian word for "fast"), which allows users to create or alter content on web page The system is very simple: When you open the web site, you can simply search for information or you can log on to become a writer or editor of articles If you find an article that interests you - about your hometown, for example - you can correct it or expand it This process goes on until
no one is interested in making any more changes

PANDEMIC
Diseases are a natural part of life on Earth If there were no diseases, the population would grow too
quickly, and there would not be enough food or other resources So in a way, diseases are nature's way of
keeping the Earth in balance But sometimes they spread very quickly and kill large numbers of people For
example, in 1918, an outbreak of the flu spread across the world, killing over 25 million people in only six
months Such terrible outbreaks of a disease are called pandemics
Pandemics happen when a disease changes in a way that our bodies are not prepared to fight In 1918,
a new type of flu virus appeared Our bodies had no way to fight this new flu virus, and so it spread very
quickly and killed large numbers of people While there have been many different pandemic diseases
throughout history, all of them have a few things in common
First, all pandemic diseases spread from one person to another very easily Second, while they may
kill many people, they generally do not kill people very quickly A good example of this would be the
Marburg virus The Marburg virus is an extremely infectious disease In addition, it is deadly About 70-80%
of all the people who get the Marburg virus die from the disease However, the Marburg virus has not become
a pandemic because most people die within three days of getting the disease This means that the virus does
not have enough time to spread to a large number of people The flu virus of 1918, on the other hand,
generally took about a week to ten days to kill its victims, so it had more time to spread
While we may never be able to completely stop pandemics, we can make them less common Doctors
carefully monitor new diseases that they fear could become pandemics For example, in 2002 and 2003,
doctors carefully watched SARS Their health warnings may have prevented SARS from becoming a
pandemic
71. This passage is mainly about
A. why pandemics happen B. A how to prevent pandemic diseases
C. pandemic diseases D. pandemic diseases throughout history
72. According to paragraph 1, how are diseases a natural part of life on Earth?
A. They kill too many people
B. They help the world grow quickly
C. They help control the population
D. They prevent pandemics
73. Based on the information in the passage the term pandemics can best be explained as _
A. new diseases like SARS or the Marburg virus
B. diseases that spread quickly and kill large numbers of people
C. deadly kind of flu
Trang 6Trang 6/6 - Mã đề: 157
D. diseases with no cure
74. According to the passage, what causes pandemics?
A. Changes in a disease that the body cannot fight
B. Careless doctors who do not watch the spread of diseases
C. The failure to make new medicines
