The main elements required for survival are food, fire, shelter and water Their order of importance will depend upon where you happen to be In the desert, water will head the list.Water is the most common liquid on Earth It covers about 71.4% of the Earth Pure water has no smell, taste, or color Water is the main component of drinks like milk, juice, and wine Water is very important for life but it is something that most people in the modern world take for granted They are so used to turning
on a tap that until an extreme drought causes water rationing they seldom think about it Yet the survivor at sea, or after a flood, though surrounded by water, may
be desperate for drinkable water And there are many places where, unless it rains,
no obvious water is available Although there could be other survival necessities to deal with, water is always universally important

Trang 2When you visit a supermarket you probably think you know exactly what you are going
to buy, but the truth is you are very easily persuaded Over half the decisions you make are made suddenly, on impulse, while you are inside the store, so it is important that a product is displayed in an eye-catching position if it is to have any chance of success Today’s supermarkets invest millions of pounds in powerful computer, which tell them what product sells best and where “Space management” is the name given
to a highly complicated way of influencing the way we shop to make sure that stores make the maximum profit You walk into a supermarket You pull out a trolley and stare up and down row after row of packed shelves You step out into the aisles You are faced with possibly the widest choice of food and drink in the world But over the next hour or so, you will shop in a completely predictable way This is what the space management teams who work for supermarkets have found out They believe that everything depends on the following rules about our behavior in supermarket

Trang 3Solar collectors absorb heat from the sun’s rays They can be used to effectively heat and cool buildings The most common type of collector for space heating is a flat plate designed to absorb both radiation falling directly on it, as well as radiation
scattered by the atmosphere Collectors are usually panels of aluminum, copper, or steel The collector is covered with glass or plastic This layer allows short-wave
radiation or light to enter the collector As the radiation passes through the glass or plastic, it is transformed from short-wave radiation to long-wave radiation – or heat
A transfer agent (air or water) is circulated through the collector and becomes
heated As it leaves the collector and travels through the heating ducts of a house, it warms the air inside the house or brings hot water to sinks, tubs, and appliances With solar collectors, storage is a problem: great amounts of heat must be stored for nighttime use and for use during cloudy days
1 Solar collectors can heat and cool houses with abbsorbed from……
A X-ray B UV C temperature D the sun’s rays

A Protect them B enter them C exclude them D erode
3 Collectors are usually made from…………
A Steel B copper C aluminium D A, B, C are correct
4 The word “it” in bold refer to …………
A A transfer agent B collector C long-wave radiation D heating
5 For nighttime and cloudy days, heat needs to be ………

Trang 4Fires play an important role in the natural changes that occur in Earth's ecosystems The diversity of plant and animal life in the world's forests, prairies, and wetlands is (partly) dependent on the effects of fire.It results when matter burns beyond its combustion point and it releases energy in form of heat energy.Fire has been important for the survival of man in the following ways Firstly, fire is used for cooking food.Most of the food we eat
is usually cooked Eating raw food has been in the decrease due to health concerns Secondly, fire is used for boiling water Water is another important part of our life Most of the water sources like rivers are not protected and this creates chances of water contamination Boiling, instead
of use of chemicals in water treatment will save you the side effects which come along with excessive use of chemicals For many other reasons, fire is important to human’s life

Trang 5In the 16th century, Ferdinand Magellan led the first expedition to sail around the world As a young Portuguese noble, he served the king of Portugal After he was dismissed from service by the king of Portugal, he offered to serve the future
Emperor Charles V of Spain On September 20, 1519, Magellan set sail from Spain with five ships More than a year later, one of these ships was exploring the
topography of South America in search of a water route across the continent This ship sank, but the remaining four ships searched along the southern peninsula of South America Finally, they found the passage they sought near 50 degrees S
latitude Magellan named this passage the Strait of All Saints, but today it is known
as the Strait of Magellan.Later, Magellan became involved in an insular conflict in the Philippines and was killed in a tribal battle Only one ship and 17 sailors under the command of the Basque navigator Elcano survived to complete the westward journey
to Spain and thus prove once and for all that the world is round, with no precipice at the edge

Trang 6Marie Curie, who was born in 1867 in Warsaw, Poland, was one of the most
accomplished scientists in history At an early age, she displayed a brilliant
mind.Marie was fortunate to have studied at the Sorbonne with some of the greatest scientists of her day, one of whom was Pierre Curie Marie and Pierre were married in
1895 and spent many productive years working together in the physics laboratory A short time after they discovered radium, Pierre was killed by a horse-drawn wagon in
1906 Marie was so depressed The fact that she had two young daughters to raise by herself greatly increased her distress.Curie's feeling of desolation finally began to fade when she was asked to succeed her husband as a physics professor at the
Sorbonne She was the first woman to be given a professorship at the world-famous university In 1911 she received the Nobel Prize in chemistry for isolating radium Although Marie Curie eventually suffered a fatal illness from her long exposure to radium, she never became disillusioned about her work Regardless of the
consequences, she had dedicated herself to science and to revealing the mysteries of the physical world

Trang 7Many great inventions are initially greeted with disbelief The invention of the airplane was no exception Although many people who heard about the first powered flight on December 17, 1903 were excited and impressed, others reacted with peals
of laughter The idea of flying an aircraft was repulsive to some people Such people called Wilbur and Orville Wright, the inventors of the first flying machine, impulsive fools Negative reactions; however, did not stop the Wrights In 1900 and 1901, the Wrights tested numerous gliders and developed control techniques In 1903 the Wrights built their first airplane, which cost less than $1,000 When they started the engine on December 17, the airplane pulsated wildly before taking off The plane managed to stay aloft for 12 seconds, however, and it flew 120 feet By 1905, the Wrights were successful They created the first airplane that could turn, circle, and remain airborne for half an hour at a time This was the first plane with the full-size machine that could fly under its own power As the contributors of one of the most outstanding engineering achievements in history, the Wright brothers are accurately called the fathers of aviation

Trang 8Reading is becoming more and more important in the new knowledge economy and remains the most effective human activity for transforming information into knowledge.If top readers read at speeds of above 1000 words per minute (wpm) with near 85% comprehension, they only represent 1% of readers Average readers are the majority and only reach around 200 wpm with a typical comprehension of 60%.The average reader is five times slower than the good reader Things are even worse if we consider reading efficiency as well as speed.There are three possible ways to improve reading The fastest is probably a speed reading seminar based upon good materials and animated by a dynamic instructor.A book about speed reading is the second possibility Such a book usually provides speed and comprehension tests as well as techniques to improve reading.Finally, a speed reading computer program is probably the most efficient way to achieve top reading levels This is the task that seminars and speed-reading books usually leave up to the reader
1 Compared to average reader, the accomplished reader reads with?
A Higher speed and worse reading comprehension
B Higher speed and better reading comprehension
C Higher speed and same reading comprehension
D Lower speed and better reading comprehension
2 Reader reading above 1000 wpm………?

Trang 9There are many reasons to use alternative energy sources One reason is to reduce pollutants and greenhouse gases Alternative or renewable energy sources help to reduce the amount of toxins that are a result of traditional energy use These alternative energy sources help protect against the harmful by-products of energy use and help to preserve many of the natural resources that we currently use as energy sources There are many alternative energy sources: wind power, solar power, geothermal power, and hydroelectric power are some examples Wind power is the ability to capture the wind in a way to propel the blades of wind turbines When the blades rotate, this movement is switched into electrical current with the help of an electrical generator In older windmills, wind energy turned mechanical machinery to
do the physical work like crushing grain to make bread or pumping water to get water Wind towers are built on wind farms, and usually there are several towers built together Wind towers are built on windfarms, and usually there are several towers built together In2005, the worldwide use of wind-powered generators wasless than 1% of all of the electricity use combined
