animal to scientists In their natural habitats, dolphins use various vocalization techniques They

whistle and squeak to recognize members of their pod, identify and protect their young, and call outwarnings of danger They also make clicking sounds used for echolocation to find food and obstacles indark and murky waters

Amazingly, the whistling sound that the bottlenose dolphin makes has been found to have a similarpattern to human language They always make conversational sounds when they greet each other If youlisten to dolphins' squeaks and squeals, it will sound like they are having a conversation.

Dolphins usually use both sound and body language to communicate with each other It is throughgesture and body language, however, that most of their communication with humans comes Dolphinscan be trained to perform complicated tricks This suggests they have a high level of intelligence andcommunication capacity If they work for a long time with a trainer, they are able to recognize andunderstand human commands

A lot of dolphin communication has been studied using dolphins in captive environments These studieshave been criticized because some marine biologists believe that dolphins living in aquariums or

research centers cannot be considered "normal." Even so, most believe that studying dolphin

communication in captivity is useful for beginning to understand the complexity of dolphincommunication After all, dolphins are one of the most intelligent animals Their ability tocommunicate is impressive and worthy of study

C communication using sounds and gestures occurs between dolphins

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.

What does it take to graduate from university with a First?

Mark McArdle, first-class degree holder from the University of Lancaster, tells how he did it.

Don’t spend too much time at the student lounge, do turn up for most lectures and tutorials and dosubmit all coursework - eventually That, I was told by a PhD student during freshers’ week, was all Ineeded to do to get a 2:2 For a 2:1, I’d require a better attendance record and have to work harder, butnot at the expense of being cut off from civilization And for a First I would have to become some sort

of social outcast, go to even lecture and tutorial (scribbling notes madly), spend every waking moment

immersed in academic books, and be among the last to be thrown out of the university library at 10 pm

closing time

Well, I did not give up my life for study I didn't attend every lecture and tutorial I didn’t write downevery word spoken in lectures I didn’t get 80% or more in every essay, project, test or exam I wasusually behind with my reading and occasionally mystified by the syllabus Sometimes I couldn't bebothered to go to university and stayed at home instead But I always knew where I was what I had to

do and what not to bother with And I always worked hard on the things that counted: assignments andexams

Getting a degree is about learning, but it isn’t just about learning biology, history, English or whatever.It’s about understanding what you need to succeed - what, in fact, the university

wants from you and what you will get in return You have to have a feel for the education market andreally sell your inspirations, what does the lecturer want? what is the essay marker searching for? Somestudents try to offer something not wanted Others want to give very little - they steal the thoughts ofothers and submit them as their own But they all want to be rewarded Exchange, but don’t steal, andyou’ll get a degree

I could guarantee every book on my reading list was out on long loan from the university library withinfive seconds of the list being issued This was worrying at first, but I quickly learned that it wasimpossible to read all of the books on an average reading list anyway I sought shortcuts Collections ofselected readings or journal articles were excellent sources that often saved me the bother of reading theoriginal texts References in books dragged me all over the place but with all the courses I had to do,

there wasn't enough time to be dragged too far I would flick through the book, read the introduction,

note any summaries, look at diagrams, skim the index, and read any conclusions I plucked out whatwas needed and made my escape

I revised by discarding subject areas I could not face revising, reading, compiling notes, and thencondensing them onto one or two sheets of A4 for each subject area Leading up to the exam, I wouldconcentrate on just the condensed notes and rely on my memory to drag out the detail behind them

when the time came I didn’t practice writing exam questions, although it was recommended I prefer to

be spontaneous and open-minded I don't want pre-formed conclusions filling my mind

And nor should you; there is no secret to getting a First - this is just an account of how I got my First

Be a happy student by striking the right balance between working and enjoying yourself Take what you

do seriously and do your best And, no matter what you do don’t forget to appreciate every day of youruniversity studies: it is one of the greatest periods of your life

LỜI GIẢI CHI TIẾT Question 1: Đáp án C

Đáp án C đúng vì phần gạch chân của đáp án C là âm /ʌ/ Các đáp án còn lại có phần gạch chân là âm /ɜ:/

A workshop /ˈwɜːkʃɒp/ (n): hội thảo

B worm /wɜːm/ (n): sâu/ giun

C worry /ˈwʌri/ (n)/ (v): mối lo/ lo lắng

D wordless /ˈwɜːdləs/ (a): không nói nên lời

* Mở rộng: worry có hai phiên âm, là / 'wʌri/ và /'wɜ:ri/ Tuy nhiên, trong trường hợp này, ba đáp án còn

lại đều có phần gạch chân là âm /ɜ:/ nên từ worry cần có phần gạch chân là âm /ʌ/ để đảm bảo đáp án

A dissolve /dɪˈzɒlv/ (v): hòa tan/ tan ra

B household /ˈhaʊshəʊld/ (n): hộ gia đình

C confide /kənˈfaɪd/ (v): tiết lộ/ tâm sự/ thổ lộ

D approach /əˈprəʊtʃ/ (v)/ (n): tiếp cận/ cách tiếp cận

Question 4 Đáp án A

Đáp án A đúng vì đáp án A có trọng âm rơi vào âm tiết thứ 2 Các đáp án còn lại có trọng âm rơi vào âmtiết thứ nhất

A determine /dɪˈtɜːmɪn/ (v): xác định

B argument /ˈɑːɡjumənt/ (n): sự cãi vã/ tranh luận/ luận điểm

C counterpart /ˈkaʊntəpɑːt/ (n): người đồng cấp/ người đồng vị trí

D marvelous /ˈmɑːvələs/ (a): kì diệu/ thần kì

Question 5 Đáp án A

Đáp án A - câu hỏi mạo từ

“Problem” là danh từ đếm được số ít, nên trước nó buộc phải có một mạo từ hoặc một định từ phù hợp,nên đáp án D bị loại

“Problem” được nhắc đến lần đầu trong câu, cũng không phải là danh từ mà mọi người đều đã biết đến,nên nó chưa xác định, vậy cũng không đi với đáp án C - the

“Problem” bắt đầu bằng một phụ âm (P) nên sẽ đi với mạo từ ở đáp án A - a

Tạm dịch: Một vài ngày trước một vấn đề nổi lên Tuy nhiên, đến hiện tại chúng tôi vẫn chưa tìm ra cáchgiải quyết nó

Question 6 Đáp án C

Đáp án C - câu hỏi bị động

“Deserve” có cấu trúc khá đặc biệt

Ở thể chủ động, cấu trúc của nó là: S + deserve + to V

Ở thể bị động, động từ này có hai cách dùng:

1/ S + deserve + to be + P2

2/ S + deserve + V-ing

Xét 4 đáp án, có thể thấy đáp án D và B bị loại vì không theo cấu trúc của “deserve”

Động từ “mention” là ngoại động từ (loại động từ phải có một danh từ theo sau làm tân ngữ), tuy nhiêntrong trường hợp này đề bài không cho danh từ nào làm tân ngữ ở sau chỗ trống, nên buộc phải chia động

từ “mention” ở thể bị động

Vì vậy, đáp án C - mentioning đúng vì theo cấu trúc bị động của “deserve”

Tạm dịch: Keith xứng đáng được nhắc tên ở hội nghị vì tất cả những gì cô ấy đã giúp chúng tôi

* Mở rộng: ngoài “deserve”, các động từ “want”, “need”, và “require” cũng có cách dùng ở thể bị động

như trên:

1/ S + deserve/ want/ need/ require + to be + P2

2/ S + deserve/ want/ need/ require + V-ing

Question 7 Đáp án D

Đáp án D - câu hỏi so sánh

Với so sánh tính từ ngang bằng, khi tính từ đứng ở vị trí bổ sung thông tin cho danh từ số ít, cấu trúc đượcdùng sẽ là “as + adj + a/ an + Noun + as”

Vậy nên, xét 4 đáp án chỉ có đáp án D - as comfortable a hotel as - là đáp án đúng

Tạm dịch: Khách sạn này không thoải mái bằng khách sạn lần trước chúng tôi ở

* Mở rộng: Ngoài “as”, các trạng từ “rather”, “so”, “quite”, và “too” cũng có cấu trúc như trên khi đi

kèm với tính từ để bổ sung thông tin cho danh từ số ít: As/ so/ too/ quite/ rather + adj + a/an + Noun

Question 8 Đáp án B

Đáp án B - câu hỏi mệnh đề quan hệ

Mệnh đề “There are dozens of TV channels” là một câu đơn đầy đủ, nếu không có các liên từ hoặc cáccấu trúc ngữ pháp đặc biệt khác để nối với mệnh đề sau, thì phải đặt dấu chấm (“.”) sau mệnh đề đó Vì

đề bài cho dấu phẩy (“,”) sau mệnh đề đó cho nên các đáp án A, C, D bị loại vì ba đáp án đó không chứaliên từ và cũng không có các cấu trúc đặc biệt để nối, muốn chọn 3 đáp án này thì sau mệnh đề đầu tiênphải là dấu chấm

Chỉ còn lại đáp án D - some of which (cấu trúc mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định) là phù hợp vì có thể nốihai mệnh đề lại

Tạm dịch: Có hàng tá những kênh ti vi, một vài trong số đó hoạt động 24 giờ/ ngày

Question 9 Đáp án A

Đáp án A - câu hỏi từ loại

“In” là giới từ Sau giới từ, thường là danh từ hoặc danh động từ

Sau chỗ trống đã là danh từ “incidents” (tai nạn), cho nên chỗ trống cần điền chỉ có thể là một tính từ để

bổ sung thông tin cho danh từ “incidents”

Xét 4 đáp án, đáp án A - violent (a) là phù hợp

A violent (a): bạo lực/ thô bạo/ mãnh liệt

B violence (n): sự bạo lực/ thô bạo

C violently (adv): một cách thô bạo/ bạo lực

D violate (v): vi phạm

Tạm dịch: 31 người đã bị thương trong các vụ tai nạn thảm khốc trong suốt ngày hôm nay

Question 10 Đáp án B

Đáp án B - câu hỏi phrasal verb

Câu hỏi này cần chọn một đáp án có cụm động từ (phrasal verb) phù hợp nghĩa nhất Chọn B - giving offvì:

A giving over: ngưng làm việc phiền toán

B giving off: thải ra/ tỏa ra mùi, nhiệt độ, khói, ánh sáng

C giving down - không tồn tại

D giving up: từ bỏ/ bỏ cuộc/ ngưng lại

Tạm dịch: Đây là chất hóa học gì? Nó đang tỏa ra một mùi kinh khủng

Question 11 Đáp án C

Đáp án C - câu hỏi mệnh đề trạng ngữ

Mệnh đề trạng ngữ chỉ thời gian thường được bắt đầu bằng các liên từ: when/ while/ before/ after/ as soonas/ by the time/ until Đối với các câu ở thì tương lai, mệnh đề trạng ngữ chỉ thời gian đi kèm chỉ đượcphép chia ở các thì hiện tại

Vậy nên, chỉ còn đáp án C - by the time her boss returns (chia ở thì hiện tại) là phù hợp

Tạm dịch: Mary sẽ hoàn thành xong toàn bộ công việc không trễ hơn lúc sếp cô ấy quay về.

* Mở rộng: “By + Mốc thời gian” hoặc “By the time + mệnh đề” là dấu hiệu nhận biết các thì hoàn thành

hoặc hoàn thành tiếp diễn

Căn cứ vào “mốc thời gian” hoặc “mệnh đề” ở hiện tại, quá khứ, hoặc tương lai để chia thành các thì hiệntại, quá khứ, hoặc tương lai hoàn thành/ hoàn thành tiếp diễn

Ví dụ: By yesterday - chia ở quá khứ hoàn thành/ hoàn thành tiếp diễn

Question 12 Đáp án D

Đáp án D - câu hỏi đảo ngữ

“Little” (adv): ít, gần như không - là một trạng từ mang nghĩa phủ định Đối với những câu có trạng ngữphủ định được đảo lên đầu câu và không cách câu bằng dấu phẩy (“,”), cần phải sử dụng đảo ngữ Vì vậy,các đáp án A và B bị loại do không đảo ngữ

Câu này có mệnh đề sau chia ở thì quá khứ, nên đáp án phải chọn là đáp án D - did I know (chia ở quákhứ) và loại đáp án C - do I know (chia ở hiện tại)

Tạm dịch: Tôi biết quá ít về toán đến mức mà bài giảng này nằm ngoài tầm đối với tôi

* Mở rộng: Ngoài ra, câu này còn có thể giải thích theo cấu trúc đảo ngữ của mệnh đề trạng ngữ chỉ kết

quả:

- Cấu trúc bình thường: S + V + so +adv/ adj + that

- Cấu trúc đảo ngữ: So + adv/adj + trợ động từ + S + (V) + + that

Question 13 Đáp án D

Đáp án D - câu hỏi từ nối

Sau chỗ trống cần điền là một cụm danh từ “its intense surface heat” Để nối danh từ vào câu, giới từđược sử dụng

Hai đáp án A - because (bởi vì) và B - although (mặc dù) bị loại vì cả hai là liên từ

Xét thêm yếu tố về nghĩa, có thể loại được đáp án C - despite (prep): mặc dù - và chọn đáp án D - due to(prep): do có/ bởi vì

Tạm dịch: Có lẽ sự sống không thể có khả năng tồn tại trên sao Kim do sức nóng bề mặt khủng khiếp củanó
