F What is more, there’s no danger of getting an
upset stomach because of the local cuisine
G It always causes huge family arguments that last for
days
H The landmarks, buildings and scenery we saw
were so realistic
IS IT REAL OR VIRTUAL?
Whenever the topic of holidays comes up in our house we
can never agree on what to do or where to go
Mum and Dad usually want to go on a winter holiday and enjoy skiing in the Alps whereas | prefer
relaxing in the sun by a tropical sea We never seem to
want the same thing and in the end nobody completely
enjoys the break
This year we found a solution to please everybody ~ a
combined winter and summer holiday! How did we
manage that? [1] _] Well, the only way to experience
snow-covered mountains and golden sands at the same
time is to take a holiday in the realms of virtual reality
Using the latest technology and vast amounts of
information collected about thousands of different holiday
resorts, this new computerised travel system is extremely
convincing You can go anywhere and see anything you
want You really can’t tell the difference from the real thing
The Great Lakes of Canada, the Great Barrier Reef
and the Taj Mahal were just like I've seen on travel
documentaries
| was able to sunbathe on a beautiful white sandy beach and
swim in a tropical blue sea | could feel a warm gentle
breeze against my skin and smell the salt in the air
Meanwhile, my parents were skiing down the long ski slopes
with real snow and deep green trees sparkling with ice
It all sounds wonderful doesn’t it? We just had to put on
gloves, goggles and headgear and sit back relax and
enjoy the trip However, neither the slopes nor the sea
were real Only the people on the beach or skiing beside
us were real The clouds and the blue sky are painted scenery and the sea is a huge swimming pool with an enormous wave machine The sun tan comes from the sun lamps in the roof
Nevertheless, it feels so real it is hard to tell the difference
| actually had to keep reminding myself that | was only about half an hour's drive away from my house
For those of you who believe that it is all too fake and artificial and couldn't possibly compare to the real thing, just stop and think about it for a moment No more delays
or lost luggage at the airport and no more crowded
beaches Your holiday will never again be spoiled by bad
weather and you won't break your leg going down the slopes either In fact, everything is perfect
However, that is not all a virtual reality holiday has to offer
If you get bored with a place or have had enough of swimming in the sea, just a quick click of a button and the season has changed.[5|_|Alternatively, you could simply change the sea from a gentle ocean to a surfer's paradise The choices are endless and they are all yours
We enjoyed a wonderful few days holiday Nobody got
annoyed, fed up, sunburnt or bitten by mosquitoes, in fact
we all felt extremely relaxed and completely satisfied | think that this type of holiday will become more and more popular as technology progresses [6 | _] | can’t wait until next year when once again we will travel around the world
of virtual reality

Choosing a holiday is not an easy thing Once you ve
chosen your destination there are still many other
decisions to be made There are so many different
kinds of holidays on offer nowadays, a little advice can
make all the difference when it comes to getting exactly
what you want
HÌ Imagine a holiday where you wouldn't have to decide 7 77 |
where to stay, where to eat and what to do each day
You wouldn't have to worry about expenses either;
everything you are likely to need has already been
paid for! If this sounds like heaven to you, why not
consider an alkinclusive holiday deal? As the name
suggests, everything is included: accommodation,
drinks, meals and, in some cases, daily excursions,
water sports and other activities The trick is to always
ask your travel agent exactly what you can expect for
your money Then, lie back and relax!
Now you can look for, and book, a bargain holiday
from the comfort of your own home, thanks to
computers Many travel companies have their own
websites and some specialise in cheap flights so you
can easily book flights and holiday packages online If
you don’t have a computer, you can still find bargain
holidays through Teletext which you can book by
phone If your TV search is unsuccessful, try checking
the travel sections of weekend newspapers
Holidays with young children can be very stresstul!
luckily, many major holiday companies now cater
specifically for families with young children Look for a
‘child friendly’ resort where there are special zones
«exclusively for kids They are run by experienced staff
A Se etn ai genni sa đá 1á biên G2200 2,<16xe-4446U7777
children throughout the day Children’s clubs are usually open between Zam and I|lpm and most offer a
babysitting service if parents want to party all night!
4p 77 7 7 7]
Backpacking is especially popular with students and
young people who want a long, inexpensive holiday ~
often in exotic or unusual places But be warned; if you enjoy comfort and luxury, this probably isn’t the holiday for you Backpacking can be exciting and challenging,
but also very tiring Plan your routes and destinations
well in advance and surf the net for websites which have information and advice for independent travellers,
or find a detailed guide book which will tell you everything you need to know
STS
To get the most from a touring holiday, we recommend you buy a good guide book, one that contains detailed maps and updated information about costs, transport, accommodation, restaurants and sites worth visiting
You can read about the history and culture of the place you are visiting and even learn a few useful phrases in another language You can also find a lot of useful
ie
information on the Internet and simply print the pages /
you need
Finally, what if your holiday goes horribly wrong? If you
have booked with a travel company and have a serious
complaint you can usually claim some kind of
compensation Complain to a representative at the resort
and write to the company’s customer service centre when you get home If you are refused compensation, contact
the Association of British Travel Agents {ABTA} Of
course, we hope that nothing will go wrong and that you
have a fantastic holiday Bon Voyage!

Trang 15-G You are going to read an article about alternative medicine For questions 1-6, choose the correct
Reading
answer A, B, C or D
Chinese medicine has been around for at least 5,000
years However, it has only recently become an
increasingly popular alternative to conventional medicine
in Western Europe
The two philosophies of Chinese and Western medicine
are very different Chinese medicine is holistic, which
means that the healer treats the entire body to cure the
cause of the illness, not just the symptoms Western
medicine, on the other hand, only treats the part of the
body that has the problem
Another difference is that Chinese medicines contain
natural products They often consist of extracts from plants,
animals or minerals A typical remedy can include up to
twelve different herbs Each herb has a different quality
and remedies usually contain a combination of herbs
whose qualities are correctly balanced to cure the patient
The Chinese believe that the body's natural energy, or
‘chi’, flows through channels, that are connected to all
bodily functions and organs These channels are called
meridians The energy, in a healthy person, flows freely
through all meridians The Chinese believe we get ill
because a meridian has become blocked
Practitioners of Chinese medicine make a diagnosis by
looking at a person's skin tone, tongue and general
appearance They also listen to their breathing and
1 Chinese medicine in Europe is
A an ancient tradition
B growing in popularity
C the only alternative to Western medicine
D the most popular alternative medicine
2 Conventional Western medicine
A does not use a holistic approach
B can only treat certain parts of the body
C is based on two philosophies
D treats the cause as well as the symptoms
3 Chinese remedies
A only use ingredients of the best quality
B contain ingredients that have different qualities
C help restore a patient's sense of balance
D are more effective than conventional remedies
LOOKING TO THE EAST
CLICK ON 4
consider six different aspects of the patient's pulse, as
opposed to the one aspect corresponding to the heart rate
as recognised in Western medicine They also take into consideration the spiritual and mental health of the patient
They believe that a person's chi can be imbalanced for months before any symptoms of illness appear
Perhaps the bestknown form of Chinese medicine is
acupuncture Although, because it involves needles, it isn’t
popular with everyone Fine needles are inserted into areas of the body that the Chinese call acupuncture points
The needles unblock the meridians and allow energy to flow freely through the body again Acupuncture is used to treat a wide variety of ailments, but it is more commonly
used as a form of pain relief
More and more, Western doctors are recognising that
Chinese medicine may be able to cure illnesses that conventional medicine cannot Evidence suggests that a long list of ailments including skin problems, arthritis, asthma and digestive disorders, for example, are being successfully treated every day Many patients who have not been cured by conventional medicine have been helped by Chinese treatments As Western techniques such as X-rays have been adopted in China, so it is that traditional Chinese medicine is gradually being accepted
by the Western medical profession
4 “Chỉ is the Chinese name for
A channels
B_ meridians
C bodily functions and organs
D the body’s natural energy
5 Acupuncture is used to
A locate channels of energy in the body
B correct the flow of energy in the body
C reduce the energy levels in the body
D block the meridians
6 At present, Western doctors
A don't believe in Chinese medicine

Jacques Cousteau: A Remarkable Man
0 C77 77777
Jacques Cousteau was an ecologist, conservationist,
explorer, filmmaker and inventor He was a man, who
spent practically his whole life underwater investigating
the hidden depths of the ocean and who did more to
educate the world about the mysteries of the deep than
any other person before or since
He was a sickly child and spent much of his time in bed,
reading and dreaming about a life at sea In 1920,
Jacques’ family moved to America and he was
encouraged to start swimming to build up his strength
This was the start of his fascination with water and the
more he learned through his own experiences, the more
passionate he became about ‘looking through nature's
keyhole’ However, his career in underwater exploration
came about by accident
After joining the French Navy and travelling around the
world, he was involved in a serious car accident that
left him badly injured with two broken arms He started
swimming in the Mediterranean sea to strengthen his
weak arms as part of his recovery process and
rediscovered his love of the ocean He developed a
pair of underwater goggles and experimented with
underwater breathing equipment to allow him to stay
underwater for longer periods His experiments led to
the development of the Aqua-Lung which was a
commercial success
During the Second World War, he worked for the
French Resistance and experimented with underwater
GU hanna i BOO a ga ee
photography He helped to dispose of German mines
and was awarded the Croix de Guerre and the Legion D'Honneur medals for his bravery In 1942, he made his first underwater film Sixty Feet Down lt was eighteen minutes long and was entered in the Cannes Film Festival After the war, he bought a ship which he named the Calypso and continued to make films He
wrote a book called The Silent World which became a
best seller and was the subject of his next film It received the Palme d'Or at Cannes and won an
Academy Award
His film successes led to his own television series
produced by ABC called The Undersea World of
Jacques Cousteau This series of weekly shows ran for eight years and was immensely popular around the globe Jacques Cousteau became a household name
He promoted the conservation of the oceans and highlighted the problems of overfishing, pollution and
the destruction of the coral reefs He established the
Cousteau Society in 1974 to protect ocean life and
discovered new species, raised sunken ships and even :
Jacques Cousteau will be remembered as one of the
great men of the twentieth century His documentaries,
discoveries and inventions won him many awards including the National Geographic Society's Gold Medal and Centennial Award and the U.S Presidential
Medal of Freedom He was truly an extraordinary man
whose love of the sea, determination and passion are
an example to us all

extra sentence which you do not need to use There is an example at the beginning (0)
A In 1982 their campaign to protect whales led to
the International Whaling Commission agreeing to ban whale hunting
B In the 1960s, John Bolen, Paul Cote and Irving
Stowe decided that it was time for action and they began working on an idea to help protect the
environment using non-violent means
C Because their aim was to make the world aware of
what was happening to the planet, they made publicity their weapon
D Because of the negative publicity, Shell did not
dump the platform
E Greenpeace would appreciate your help
F In ten years it had become so popular that some of
the original members felt that the organisation had become more important than its causes
G The question is; what are we doing about it?
WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
We all know that our natural resources are being depleted,
animals are becoming extinct and our environment is so
polluted that it's a wonder we have survived at all
The answer, unfortunately, is: not enough
However, thanks to the efforts of three people in Canada, there
is hope [i] | The idea caught on quickly and the name
Greenpeace was chosen because it accurately described their
goal — to save the planet without hurting anyone
There were other similar groups formed at around the same
time, but what made Greenpeace so much more effective
was its unusual method of protest Their ‘common
man’ approach caught the attention of the media and they
showed startling images that very few of us can ignore
Their first successful campaign took place in 1971 when three
Greenpeace volunteers and four journalists left Vancouver,
Canada, in a small boat called the Phyllis Cormack Their
mission was fo stop the US government from testing H bombs
on Amchitka island in Alaska They were all arrested, but
thanks to all the negative publicity, the US government
decided to stop using Amchitka island as a testing site
In 1972, Greenpeace tried to stop France from testing
nuclear weapons in French Polynesia The French boarded
their boat by force A crew member managed to take a
photograph of the incident and once again the world was
able to see what was going on There was so much media
attention surrounding this incident that, in 1975, France
temporarily stopped its nuclear testing in that area
At the end of the 70s, Greenpeace Foundation became
Greenpeace International However, even they could
not deny that they had raised the world’s awareness of environmental issues Thanks to Greenpeace, subjects like
deforestation, toxic waste, water contamination and animal
rights were being discussed by ordinary people, not just concerned environmentalists
During the 1980s, Greenpeace became so powertul that it implemented major changes in international laws and
policies[4 | _]In 1983, they publicly exposed the dumping
of radioactive waste into the sea and, as a result, this was
also banned By the 1990s, Greenpeace had become so influential that it was responsible for the worldwide ban on using large driftnets at sea which were trapping dolphins and, thanks to their campaigns, a 50 year ban on mineral exploitation in Antarctica was officially declared
Of course, Greenpeace has made mistakes For example,
when Shell Oil attempted to dump an old oil platform in the Atlantic Ocean, Greenpeace declared that the platform was tull of toxic waste and would pollute the surrounding area
However, it was later discovered that the platform actually contained very little toxic waste and could have been dumped causing little environmental damage Greenpeace made a public apology to Shell, but the public began to question whether other claims might have been exaggerated
Nevertheless, despite a few minor mistakes, Greenpeace
has done so much good work that it is hard to criticise them They have also given everyone the opportunity to take an active role in trying to save our planet Let's just hope that
we are not too late!

Trang 27Credit cards, cash cards, membership cards, store loyalty cards,
clockin cards, travel passes — the list is endless Soon, there may
be one card that does everything Manufacturers are aiming to
produce a chip that is small enough to go on a card but still able
to hold a huge amount of data If they succeed, we may well see
the introduction of ‘multiapplication’ cards that can be used as
your passport, driving licence and your credit card However,
many people worry about their security Signatures and PIN
numbers would not be sufficient to stop fraud One suggestion is
to incorporate fingerprint identification on the card Of course, this
would mean that even more information would need to be
imprinted on the microchip, so perhaps it is not yet time to throw
away that purse full of plastic
B Online Living
Would it be possible to live completely online? 23-year-old
graduate Chris tried it out as a volunteer for a research project In
13 weeks he had to set up a home and attend to his daily needs,
including banking, studying, eating and entertaining himself The
only people he had for company were on the Internet His daily
routine consisted of checking emails, doing research and
spending hours on the net shopping for what he needed With no
pizza place or local shop to go to Chris had to plan all his meals
in advance to avoid being hungry The house wasn't cleaned for
weeks [it took some time to find a vaccum cleaner over the net)
However, he did manage to furnish the house Surprisingly,
though, it was extremely difficult to buy a pair of shoes This
experiment revealed that successful online living relies a great deal
on being practical and it definitely has its advantages although it
may not be as instantly satisfying as living in the real world
Which passage(s) mention(s) something which:
has been used for almost half a century?
cannot be copied by criminals?
doesn't encourage contact with people?
may take longer than expected?
cannot be relied on completely?
improves public safety?
requires good organisational skills?
can be used at home?
makes people think about their behaviour?
involves using biological information?
This form of identification was introduced in 1995 and works by
checking the patterns in your eye Some banks in America have
already installed scanners in ATMs and their customers no longer
need to use a PIN number or even a cash card Iris scanning is
also already replacing passwords on desktop computers, preventing unauthorised people from accessing the computer At
home, this would mean that children would not be able to browse
unsuitable websites or get into their parents’ private files On a
larger scale, airports could use iris scanning to help prevent people from using false passports However, unlike fingerprints,
iris scans can be taken without your knowledge You will only
have to glance in the direction of a camera and your details will
be recorded This has advantages for detecting criminals, but
disadvantages for the ordinary law-abiding citizen Looking deep
into someone's eyes may take on a new meaning in the future!
D Surveillance Cameras
Surveillance cameras have been in existence since the 1960s and today they can watch our every move, in shops, at train stations,
in the street, or at football stadiums In areas with closed circuit
cameras, the police can spot criminals and even prevent a crime from happening The police can film a crowd of people at a
football match, for example, and using a computer that can scan faces at the rate of 250 per second, they can identify known
troublemakers In some areas where cameras exist, the crime rate
has dropped by 50% Other applications of CCTV include installing them in private homes to allow anxious mothers to see if
their children are being mistreated with the help of small hidden
cameras There are plenty of eyes in the sky, too Powerful satellites can identify people and places from space It may not be long before everything we do is observed, and we will not be
able to put a foot wrong
