Read the following text and circle the best answer among A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet for the questions from 39 to 43
SCIENCE FLYING IN THE FACE OF GRAVITY
It looked just like another aircraft from the outside The pilot told his young passengers that it was built in 1964, a Boeing KC-135 refuelling tanker, based on the 707 But appearances were deceptive, and the 13 students from Europe and the USA who boarded the aircraft were in for the flight of their lives
Inside, the area that normally had seats had become a long white tunnel Heavily padded from floor
to ceiling; it looked a bit like a lunatic asylum There were almost no windows, but lights along the
padded walls eerily illuminated it Most of the seats had been taken out apart from a few at the back,
where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of apprehension
From 12 months, science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions For the next two hours the Boeing's flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason, shooting upwards towards the heavens before hurting towards Earth The intention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds
The aircraft took off smoothly enough, but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds Then the engine cut out and we became weightless Everything became confused, and left or right, up or down no longer had any meaning After 10 seconds of free-fall descent, the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss, but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump
After two hours of going up and down in the plane doing experiments, the predominant feeling was
one of exhilaration rather than nausea Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience
and one they would be keen to repeat
Câu 39: What does the writer say about the plane?
A The outside was misleading B The inside was painted white
Câu 40: What does the word eerily in paragraph 2 mean?
Câu 41: What did the pilot do with the plane?
A He quickly climbed and stopped the engines
B He climbed and made the plane turn over
C He climbed and made the plane fall slowly
D He took off normally and then cut the engines for 20 seconds
Câu 42: Why was this passage written?
A To describe the outcome of a scientific competition
B To encourage young people to take up science
C To show scientists what young people can do
D To report on a new scientific technique
Câu 43: What does the word it in the last paragraph refer to?
A the opportunity B the exhilaration C the plane D the trip

Read the following text and circle the best answer among A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet for the questions from 44 to 50
TV has transformed politics in the USA by changing the way in which information is disseminated,
by altering political campaigns, and by changing citizen’s patterns of response to politics By giving citizens independent access to the candidates, television diminished the role of the political party in the selection of the major party candidates By centering politics on the person of the candidate, television accelerated the citizen’s focus on character rather than issues
TV has altered the forms of political communication as well The messages on which most of us
rely are briefer than they once were The stump speech, a political speech given by traveling
politicians and lasting 1/2 to 2 hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has given way to the 30-second advertisement and the 10 second "sound bite" in broadcast news
Increasingly the audience for speeches is not that standing in front of the politician but rather the
viewing audience who will hear and see a snippet of the speech on the news
In these abbreviated forms, much of what constituted the traditional political discourse of earlier ages has been lost In 15 or 30 seconds, a speaker cannot establish the historical context that shaped the issue in question, cannot detail the probable causes of the problem, and cannot examine alternative proposals to argue that one is preferable to others In snippets, politicians assert but do not argue Because television is an intimate medium, speaking through it require a changed political style that was more conversational, personal, and visual than that of the old-style stump speech Reliance on television means that increasingly our political world contains memorable pictures rather than memorable words Schools teach us to analyze words and print However, in a word in which politics
is increasingly visual, informed citizenship requires a new set of skills
Recognizing the power of television’s pictures, politicians craft televisual, staged events, called pseudo-event, designed to attract media coverage Much of the political activity we see on television news has been crafted by politicians, their speechwriters, and their public relations advisers for televised consumption Sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements
Câu 44: According to the passage, as compared with televised speeches, traditional political
discourse was more successful at
A making politics seem more intimate to citizens
B providing detailed information about a candidates private behavior
C placing political issues within a historical context
D allowing news coverage of political candidates
Câu 45: The word "that" in paragraph 2 refers to
A advertisement B broadcast news C politician D audience
Câu 46: The author mentions the "stump speech" in paragraph 2 as an example of
A a style of speech common to televised political events
B an interactive discussion between two politicians
C a kind of political presentation typical of the nineteenth century
D an event created by politicians to attract media attention
Câu 47: It can be inferred that before the introduction of television, political parties
A spent more money to promote their political candidates
B had more influence over the selection of political candidates
C attracted more members
D received more money
Câu 48: The word "disseminated" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
Câu 49: What is the main point of the passage?
A Citizens in the United States prefer to see politicians on television instead of in person
Trang 6Trang 6/6 - Mã đề thi 101
B Citizens in the United States are now more informed about political issues because of television
coverage
C Politics in the United States has been significantly changed by television
D Politics in the United States has become substantially more controversial since the introduction
of television
Câu 50: According to paragraph 5, staged political events are created so that politicians can
A obtain more television coverage for themselves
B create more time to discuss political issues
C spend more time talking to citizens in person
D engages in debates with their opponents

SCIENCE FLYING IN THE FACE OF GRAVITY
It looked just like another aircraft from the outside The pilot told his young passengers that it was built in 1964, a Boeing KC-135 refuelling tanker, based on the 707 But appearances were deceptive, and the 13 students from Europe and the USA who boarded the aircraft were in for the flight of their lives
Inside, the area that normally had seats had become a long white tunnel Heavily padded from floor
to ceiling; it looked a bit like a lunatic asylum There were almost no windows, but lights along the
padded walls eerily illuminated it Most of the seats had been taken out apart from a few at the back,
where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of apprehension
From 12 months, science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions For the next two hours the Boeing's flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason, shooting upwards towards the heavens before hurting towards Earth The intention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds
The aircraft took off smoothly enough, but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds Then the engine cut out and we became weightless Everything became confused, and left or right, up or down no longer had any meaning After 10 seconds of free-fall descent, the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss, but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump
After two hours of going up and down in the plane doing experiments, the predominant feeling was
one of exhilaration rather than nausea Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience
and one they would be keen to repeat

Read the following text and circle the best answer among A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet for the questions from 44 to 50
TV has transformed politics in the USA by changing the way in which information is disseminated,
by altering political campaigns, and by changing citizen’s patterns of response to politics By giving citizens independent access to the candidates, television diminished the role of the political party in the selection of the major party candidates By centering politics on the person of the candidate, television accelerated the citizen’s focus on character rather than issues
TV has altered the forms of political communication as well The messages on which most of us
rely are briefer than they once were The stump speech, a political speech given by traveling
politicians and lasting 1/2 to 2 hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has given way to the 30-second advertisement and the 10 second "sound bite" in broadcast news
Increasingly the audience for speeches is not that standing in front of the politician but rather the
viewing audience who will hear and see a snippet of the speech on the news
In these abbreviated forms, much of what constituted the traditional political discourse of earlier ages has been lost In 15 or 30 seconds, a speaker cannot establish the historical context that shaped the issue in question, cannot detail the probable causes of the problem, and cannot examine alternative proposals to argue that one is preferable to others In snippets, politicians assert but do not argue Because television is an intimate medium, speaking through it require a changed political style that was more conversational, personal, and visual than that of the old-style stump speech Reliance on television means that increasingly our political world contains memorable pictures rather than memorable words Schools teach us to analyze words and print However, in a word in which politics
is increasingly visual, informed citizenship requires a new set of skills
Recognizing the power of television’s pictures, politicians craft televisual, staged events, called pseudo-event, designed to attract media coverage Much of the political activity we see on television news has been crafted by politicians, their speechwriters, and their public relations advisers for televised consumption Sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements
Câu 44: What is the main point of the passage?
A Politics in the United States has been significantly changed by television
B Citizens in the United States are now more informed about political issues because of television
coverage
C Politics in the United States has become substantially more controversial since the introduction
of television
D Citizens in the United States prefer to see politicians on television instead of in person
Câu 45: According to paragraph 5, staged political events are created so that politicians can
A obtain more television coverage for themselves
B create more time to discuss political issues
C spend more time talking to citizens in person
D engages in debates with their opponents
Câu 46: The author mentions the "stump speech" in paragraph 2 as an example of
A a style of speech common to televised political events
B an event created by politicians to attract media attention
C an interactive discussion between two politicians
D a kind of political presentation typical of the nineteenth century
Câu 47: The word "that" in paragraph 2 refers to
A broadcast news B audience C advertisement D politician
Câu 48: It can be inferred that before the introduction of television, political parties
A spent more money to promote their political candidates
Trang 18Trang 6/6 - Mã đề thi 239
B received more money
C had more influence over the selection of political candidates
D attracted more members
Câu 49: The word "disseminated" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
Câu 50: According to the passage, as compared with televised speeches, traditional political
discourse was more successful at
A placing political issues within a historical context
B allowing news coverage of political candidates
C providing detailed information about a candidates private behavior
D making politics seem more intimate to citizens

Trang 28SCIENCE FLYING IN THE FACE OF GRAVITY
It looked just like another aircraft from the outside The pilot told his young passengers that it was built in 1964, a Boeing KC-135 refuelling tanker, based on the 707 But appearances were deceptive, and the 13 students from Europe and the USA who boarded the aircraft were in for the flight of their lives
Inside, the area that normally had seats had become a long white tunnel Heavily padded from floor
to ceiling; it looked a bit like a lunatic asylum There were almost no windows, but lights along the
padded walls eerily illuminated it Most of the seats had been taken out apart from a few at the back,
where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of apprehension
From 12 months, science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions For the next two hours the Boeing's flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason, shooting upwards towards the heavens before hurting towards Earth The intention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds
The aircraft took off smoothly enough, but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds Then the engine cut out and we became weightless Everything became confused, and left or right, up or down no longer had any meaning After 10 seconds of free-fall descent, the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss, but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump
After two hours of going up and down in the plane doing experiments, the predominant feeling was
one of exhilaration rather than nausea Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience
and one they would be keen to repeat
Câu 39: What does the writer say about the plane?
A The inside was painted white B The outside was misleading
Câu 40: What does the word eerily in paragraph 2 mean?
Câu 41: What did the pilot do with the plane?
A He quickly climbed and stopped the engines
B He climbed and made the plane turn over
C He took off normally and then cut the engines for 20 seconds
D He climbed and made the plane fall slowly
Câu 42: What does the word it in the last paragraph refer to?
A the exhilaration B the trip C the opportunity D the plane

Read the following text and circle the best answer among A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet for the questions from 44 to 50
TV has transformed politics in the USA by changing the way in which information is disseminated,
by altering political campaigns, and by changing citizen’s patterns of response to politics By giving citizens independent access to the candidates, television diminished the role of the political party in the selection of the major party candidates By centering politics on the person of the candidate, television accelerated the citizen’s focus on character rather than issues
TV has altered the forms of political communication as well The messages on which most of us
rely are briefer than they once were The stump speech, a political speech given by traveling
politicians and lasting 1/2 to 2 hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has given way to the 30-second advertisement and the 10 second "sound bite" in broadcast news
Increasingly the audience for speeches is not that standing in front of the politician but rather the
viewing audience who will hear and see a snippet of the speech on the news
In these abbreviated forms, much of what constituted the traditional political discourse of earlier ages has been lost In 15 or 30 seconds, a speaker cannot establish the historical context that shaped the issue in question, cannot detail the probable causes of the problem, and cannot examine alternative proposals to argue that one is preferable to others In snippets, politicians assert but do not argue Because television is an intimate medium, speaking through it require a changed political style that was more conversational, personal, and visual than that of the old-style stump speech Reliance on television means that increasingly our political world contains memorable pictures rather than memorable words Schools teach us to analyze words and print However, in a word in which politics
is increasingly visual, informed citizenship requires a new set of skills
Recognizing the power of television’s pictures, politicians craft televisual, staged events, called pseudo-event, designed to attract media coverage Much of the political activity we see on television news has been crafted by politicians, their speechwriters, and their public relations advisers for televised consumption Sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements
Câu 44: The word "disseminated" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to
Câu 45: According to paragraph 5, staged political events are created so that politicians can
A engages in debates with their opponents
B spend more time talking to citizens in person
C obtain more television coverage for themselves
D create more time to discuss political issues
Câu 46: The word "that" in paragraph 2 refers to
A politician B advertisement C audience D broadcast news
Câu 47: What is the main point of the passage?
A Citizens in the United States prefer to see politicians on television instead of in person
B Politics in the United States has become substantially more controversial since the introduction
of television
C Politics in the United States has been significantly changed by television
D Citizens in the United States are now more informed about political issues because of television
coverage
Câu 48: According to the passage, as compared with televised speeches, traditional political
discourse was more successful at
A making politics seem more intimate to citizens
B placing political issues within a historical context
Trang 30Trang 6/6 - Mã đề thi 353
C allowing news coverage of political candidates
D providing detailed information about a candidates private behavior
Câu 49: It can be inferred that before the introduction of television, political parties
A attracted more members
B spent more money to promote their political candidates
C received more money
D had more influence over the selection of political candidates
Câu 50: The author mentions the "stump speech" in paragraph 2 as an example of
A a style of speech common to televised political events
B an interactive discussion between two politicians
C a kind of political presentation typical of the nineteenth century
D an event created by politicians to attract media attention

Trang 34SCIENCE FLYING IN THE FACE OF GRAVITY
It looked just like another aircraft from the outside The pilot told his young passengers that it was built in 1964, a Boeing KC-135 refuelling tanker, based on the 707 But appearances were deceptive, and the 13 students from Europe and the USA who boarded the aircraft were in for the flight of their lives
Inside, the area that normally had seats had become a long white tunnel Heavily padded from floor
to ceiling; it looked a bit like a lunatic asylum There were almost no windows, but lights along the
padded walls eerily illuminated it Most of the seats had been taken out apart from a few at the back,
where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of apprehension
From 12 months, science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions For the next two hours the Boeing's flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason, shooting upwards towards the heavens before hurting towards Earth The intention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds
The aircraft took off smoothly enough, but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds Then the engine cut out and we became weightless Everything became confused, and left or right, up or down no longer had any meaning After 10 seconds of free-fall descent, the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss, but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump
After two hours of going up and down in the plane doing experiments, the predominant feeling was
one of exhilaration rather than nausea Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience
and one they would be keen to repeat
Câu 39: What does the writer say about the plane?
A The inside was painted white B It had no seats
Câu 40: What does the word eerily in paragraph 2 mean?
Câu 41: What did the pilot do with the plane?
A He quickly climbed and stopped the engines
B He climbed and made the plane fall slowly
C He took off normally and then cut the engines for 20 seconds
D He climbed and made the plane turn over
Câu 42: Why was this passage written?
A To show scientists what young people can do
B To describe the outcome of a scientific competition
C To report on a new scientific technique
D To encourage young people to take up science
Câu 43: What does the word it in the last paragraph refer to?
A the exhilaration B the trip C the opportunity D the plane
