Read the following passage and mark the letter Af B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
In science, a theory is a reasonable explanation of observed events that are related A
theory often involves an imaginary model that helps scientists picture the way an observed event
could be produced A good example of this is found in the kinetic molecular theory, in which gases
are pictured as being made up of many small particles that are in constant motion
A useful theory, in addition to explaining past observation, helps to predict events that have not as yet been observed After a theory has been publicized, scientists design experiments to test
the theory If observations confirm the scientists' predictions, the theory is supported If
observations do not confirm the predictions, the scientists must search further There may be a fault in the experiment, or the theory may have to be revised or rejected
Science involves imagination and creative thinking as well as collecting information and performing experiments Facts by themselves are not science As the mathematician Jules Henri Poincare said: "Science is built with facts just as a house is built with bricks, but a collection of facts cannot be called science any more than a pile of bricks can be called a house."
Most scientists start an investigation by finding out what other scientists have learned about a particular problem After known facts have been gathered, the scientist comes to the part
of the investigation that requires considerable imagination Possible solutions to the problem are formulated These possible solutions are called hypotheses In a way, any hypothesis is a leap into the unknown It extends the scientist's thinking beyond the known facts The scientist plans experiments, performs calculations, and makes observations to test hypotheses For without hypotheses, further investigation lacks purpose and direction When hypotheses are confirmed, they are incorporated into theories

A The importance of models in scientific theories.
B The sorts of facts that scientists find most interesting.

Question 38 The word "this" in paragraph 1 refers to .
A the kinetic molecular theory B a good example

Question 39 According to the second paragraph, a useful theory is one that helps scientists
to
A observe events B publicize new findings
C make predictions D find errors in past experiments
Question 40 The word "supported" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A upheld B finished C adjusted D investigated Question 41 In the fourth paragraph, the author implies that imagination is most important to
scientists when they
A formulate possible solutions to a problem B evaluate previous work on a problem
C close an investigation D gather known facts
Question 42 In the last paragraph, what does the author imply is a major function of hypotheses?
A Linking together different theories.

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 43 to 50.
A considerable body of research has demonstrated a correlation between birth order and
aspects such as temperament and behavior, and some psychologists believe that birth order significantly affects the development of personality Psychologist Alfred Adler was a pioneer in the study of the relationship between birth order and personality A key point in his research and in
the hypothesis that he developed based on it was that it was not the actual numerical birth
position that affected personality; instead, it was the similar responses in large numbers of families to children in specific birth order positions that had an effect For example, first-borns, who have their parents to themselves initially and do not have to deal with siblings in the first part
of their lives, tend to have their first socialization experiences with adults and therefore tend to find the process of peer socialization more difficult In contrast, later-born children have to deal with siblings from the first moment of their lives and therefore tend to have stronger socialization skills
Numerous studies since Adler's have been conducted on the effect ofbirth order and personality These studies have tended to classify birth order types into four different categories: first-born, second-born and/or middle, last, and only child
Studies have consistently shown that first-born children tend to exhibit similar, positive
and negative personality traits First-borns have consistently been linked with academic
achievement in various studies; in one study, the number of National Merit scholarship winners who are first- borns was found to be equal to the number of second-and third-borns combined First-borns have been found to be more responsible and assertive than those born in other birth-order positions and tend to rise to positions of leadership more often than others; more first-borns have served in the u.s Congress and as u.s presidents than have those born in other birth-order positions However, studies have shown that first-borns tend to be more subject to stress and were considered problem children more often than later-borns
Second-born and/or middle children demonstrate markedly different tendencies from first-borns They tend to feel inferior to the older child or children because it is difficult for them to comprehend that their lower level of achievement is a function of age rather than ability, and they often try to succeed in areas other than those in which their older sibling or siblings excel They tend to be more trusting, accepting, and focused on others than the more self-centered first-borns,
Trang 5and they tend to have a comparatively higher level of success in team sports than do first-borns or only children, who more often excel in individual sports
The last-born child is the one who tends to be the eternal baby of the family and thus often exhibits a strong sense of security Last-borns collectively achieve the highest degree of social success and demonstrate the highest levels of self-esteem of all the birth-order positions They often exhibit less competitiveness than older brothers and sisters and are more likely to take part
in less competitive group games or in social organizations such as sororities and fraternities
Only children tend to exhibit some of the main characteristics of first-borns and some of the characteristics of last-borns Only children tend to exhibit the strong sense of security and self-esteem exhibited by last-borns while, like first-borns, they are more achievement oriented and more likely than middle-or last-borns to achieve academic success However, only children tend to have the most problems establishing close relationships and exhibit a lower need for affiliation than other children
