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.

No sooner had the first intrepid male aviators safely returned to Earth than it seemed thatwomen, too, had been smitten by an urge to fly From mere spectators, they became willingpassengers and finally pilots in their own right, plotting their skills and daring line against the

hazards of the air and the skepticism of their male counterparts In doing so they enlarged the

traditional bounds of a women's world, won for their sex a new sense of competence andachievement, and contributed handsomely to the progress of aviation

But recognition of their abilities did not come easily "Men do not believe us capable." thefamed aviator Amelia Earhart once remarked to a friend "Because we are women, seldom are we

anefficientjob."Indeed,oldattitudesdiedhard:whenCharlesLindberghvisitedtheSovietUnionin1938with his wife, Anne-herself a pilot and gifted proponent of aviation - he was astonished todiscover both men and women flying in the Soviet Air Force

Such conventional wisdom made it difficult for women to raise money for the up - to - dateequipment they needed to compete on an equal basis with men Yet they did compete, and oftenthey triumphed finally despite the odds

Ruth Law, whose 590 - mile flight from Chicago to Hornell, New York, set a new nonstopdistance record in 1916, exemplified the resourcefulness and grit demanded of any woman who

wanted to fly And when she addressed the Aero Club of America after completing her historic

journey, her plainspoken words testified to a universal human motivation that was unaffected bygender: "My flight was done with no expectation of reward," she declared, "just purely for thelove of accomplishment."

Sometimes you know things about people the first timeyou see them, for example, that you want to be friends withthem or that you don’t trust them But perhaps this kind ofintuition isn’t as hard to explain as it may seem For instance,people give out their body language signals all the time Theway you hold your body, head and arms tells people aboutyour mood If you hold your arms tightly at your sides, orfold them across your chest, people will generally feel thatyou are being defensive Holding your head to one side

shows interest in the other, while an easy, open posture

Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater

part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of

desert animals is to survive in a world where sources offlowing water are rare And since man’s inexorable necessity

is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, hecan scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desertpass their entire lives without a single drop Uncompromising

as it is, the desert has not a limited life but only those forms

unable to withstand its desiccating effects No moist skinned,water-loving animals can exist there Few large animals arefound The giants of the North American desert are the deer,the coyote, and the bobcat Since desert country is open, itholds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures thanthe tangled forest Its population is largely nocturnal, silent,filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth Yet they are not

emaciated Having adapted to their austere environment,

they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the world

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 following questions.

People appear to be born to compute The numerical skills of children develop so early and so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth Notlong after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy – one plate, one knife, one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs Soon they are capable of noting that they have placed five knives, spoons, and forks on the table and, a bit later, thatthis amounts to fifteen pieces of silverware Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a desert island at birth and retrieved seven years later, he or shecould enter a second-grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjustment

Of course, the truth is not so simple This century, the

work of cognitive psychologists has illuminated the subtle

forms of daily learning on which intellectual progressdepends Children were observed as they slowly grasped or,

as the case might be, bumped into concepts that adults thatfor granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede thatquantity is unchanged as water pours from a short stout glassinto a tall thin one Psychologists have since demonstratedthat young children, asked to count the pencils in a pile,readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must becoaxed into finding the total

Such studies have suggested that the rudiments ofmathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort Theyhave also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers– the idea of a oneness, a twoness, a threeness that applies toany class of objects - is a prerequisite for doing anything moremathematically demanding than setting a table – is itself farfrom innate

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 following questions.

In the history of technology, computers and calculators

were innovative developments They are essentially different

from all other machines because they have a memory Thismemory stores instructions and information In a calculator,the instructions are the various functions of arithmetic, whichare permanently remembered by the machine and cannot bealtered or added to The information consists of the numberswhich are keyedin

An electronic pocket calculator can perform almostinstant arithmetic A calculator requires an input unit to feed

in numbers, a processing unit to make the calculation, amemory unit, and an output unit to display the result Thecalculator is powered by a small battery or by a panel of solarcells Inside is a microchip that contains the memory andprocessing units and also controls the input unit, which is thekeyboard, and the output unit, which is the display

The input unit has keys for numbers and operations.Beneath the key is a printed circuit board containing a set of

contacts for each key Pressing a key closes the contacts and

sends a signal along a pair of lines in the circuit board to theprocessing unit, in which the binary code for that key isstored in the memory The processing unit also sends the code

to the display Each key is connected by a different pair oflines to the processing unit, which repeatedly checks the lines

to find out when a pair is linked by a key

ThíchTiếng Anh – thichtienganh.com – sưutầmvàbiênsoạn 10

The memory unit stores

the arithmetic instructions for

the processing unit and holds

the temporary results that occur

during calculation Storage cells

in the memory unit hold the

binary codes for the keys that

have been pressed The number

codes, together with the

operation code for the plus key,

are held in temporary cells until

the processing unit requires

them

When the equals key is

pressed, it sends a signal to the

processing unit This takes the

operation code - for example,

addition - and the two numbers

being held in the memory unit

and performs the operation on

the two numbers After the

addition is done, the result goes

to the decoder in the calculator's

microchip This code is then

sent to the liquid crystal display

unit, which shows the result, or

output, of thecalculation

Question 38 What is the main

purpose of the passage?

A To summarize the history

Question 39 What can be inferred about machines that are

not calculators or computers?

A They are older thancomputers.

B They are less expensive thancomputers.

C They cannot store information in amemory.

D They have simple memory and processingunits.

Question 40 The word “innovative” in paragraph 1 could

A.revolutionary B.complicated C.important

D Themicrochip Question 42 According to the passage, one function of the

memoryunitis

C to alter basicarithmeticinstructions D to store

Question 43 The word “This” in paragraph 5refersto _

about calculators?

A Sending codes takes place only in the memory unit of

acalculator

B Calculator and computers have amemory.

C Calculators require a lot of instructions to operatequickly.
