Color Matters for What You Wear
Clothes are like a second skin Most likely you feel good when you wear your favorite color What happens when someone sees you wearing any color - for example blue? Does the color send a message?
What do you think about pink and blue for children?
One of the most common examples of color symbolism in clothing is the custom of using pink for girls and blue for boys, but it wasn't always this way This tradition emerged at the turn of the 20th century Since pink was thought to be
a stronger color, it was best suited for boys; blue was more delicate and dainty and best for girls In 1921, the Women's Institute for Domestic Science in Pennsylvania endorsed pink for boys, blue for girls
Even more interesting is the fact that pink is the color for baby boys and blue is the color for baby girls in Belgium today
Another interesting fact about pink is that pink is a very masculine color in Bermuda Also, British bankers and barristers have worn pink shirts for decades Pink goes in and out of fashion in other parts of the world White is the traditional color for a bride's wedding gown in the U.S and most European cultures White symbolizes purity and innocence
What about the color worn for weddings and funerals?
In Asia, white is the color of death This arises from the belief that death is seen as a beginning and that white represents the purity that the deceased brings into the next life Therefore, brides in Japan and China wear red in traditional wedding ceremonies
White is also associated with death in India, where widows wear white Consequently, red or pink saris are the most popular colors for brides
What about black clothes?
Black symbolizes death and is the traditional color of mourning in Western cultures Black clothing is associated with powerful forces in many parts of the world Bad and good Witches, the devil, ninjas, cat burglars, Darth Vader, Cat Woman, and Batman wear black and so do priests, nuns, judges, mimes, Mennonites, Bedouins, and monks.Maybe the common thread is that these people are signaling their seriousness of purpose - or the need to be hard to see - or both
Here's something else to think about: What happens when the same people wear green? Are they as powerful? Are the priest and nun as respectable?

The 1001 night
The Thousand and one nights is probably one of the most famous books in the world It is a collection of stories first
told by travelers from Persia, Arabia, India and China between the ninth and thirteenth centuries In later years
professional storytellers also told the stories in coffee houses in Turkey, Egypt and many other countries The
Thousand and one nights contains well-known stories like Aladdin and Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, so people
often think they are just for children – but they were originally for adults
Shahrazad’s story
Trang 6There was once an Indian King called Shahriyar One day King Shahriyar found his wife with another man so he killed her and her lover After that the King married a different woman everyday and killed her the next morning beforeshe could stop loving him This continued for three years.
Shahrazad was the clever and beautiful daughter of the King’s adviser When her father told her what was
happening, she decided to marry the King Shahrazad’s father tried to stop her because he knew she was going to die But Shahrazad had a plan to save herself and all the women in the kingdom The King and Shahrazad got married a few days later
After the wedding, while the King was drinking with his friends, Shahrazad went to find her sister ‘I need your help,’ said Shahrazad ‘Come to the palace this evening and ask me to tell you a story’
So that night, Shahrazad was getting ready for bed when her sister came to visit her She began telling her sister a
story called The Fisherman and the Genie While she was telling the story, the King came into the room He started
listening to her story too, and became more and more interested
Shahrazad continued telling the story all night, but she stopped just before the end and said, ‘The morning’s here, husband Am I going to die now?’ ‘No, no’, said the King ‘Tell me the end of the story’ ‘I’ll tell you this evening, but not before’, said Shahrazad with a smile
That night Shahrazad finished the story – and then immediately began another This continued night after night The King never heard the end of a story until the next evening He couldn’t kill his wife because he always wanted to know how each story ended
As time passed, the King fell in love with Shahrazad He knew he could never kill her because he couldn’t live withouther and her stories To show Shahrazad he really loved her, the King married her again The stories Shahrazad told

Etiquette is the name we give to the rules for being polite in a social group Business etiquette is important for
people who often have to make new contacts and build relationships in their work Politeness can also help
to improve the working environment for people in the same office Some cultures and situations are formal, which means that we have to follow rules; other cultures and situations are more informal.

TRUE OR FALSE
We’re Living Faster, But Are We Living Better?
Not long ago people believed that in the future we would work less, have more free time, and be more relaxed But sadly this has not happened Today we work harder, work longer hours, and are more stressed than ten years ago
We walk faster, talk faster, and sleep less than previous generations And although we are obsessed with machines which save us time, we have less free time than our parents and grandparents had But what is this doing to our
health? An American journalist James Gleick in a new book, Faster: the acceleration of just about everything, says
that people who live in cities are suffering from ‘hurry sickness’ – we are always trying to do more things in less time
As a result, our lives are more stressful He says that if we don’t slow down, we won’t live as long as our parents For most people, faster doesn’t mean better.
Trang 111 The writer wrote the article to encourage us to work more and relax less.
2 People today are having a less stressful life than they did in the past.
3 People are too busy to read newspapers.
4 Slow sports have become unpopular.
5 More time is spent on stories.

The Olympic Games
During the Olympic Games, people from all over the world come together in the peace and friendship Some of these people complete for medals Several million people attend the games, and millions of other people watch them on television
Why do we have the Olympic Games? How did they begin? The first Olympic Games that we have records of were inGreece in 776 B.C The games lasted one day The only event in the first thirteen Olympic Games was a race Men ran the length or the stadium (about 192 meters) Then, longer running races were added Through the years, a few other kinds of events, like the long jump, were also added During this time, the games were for men only, and women could not even watch them In the year 393, a Roman emperor ended the Olympic Game because the quality
of the games became very low The Olympics did not take place again for 1500 years!
In 1984, Pierre de Coubertin of France helped from the International Olympic Committee, and the modern Olympic Games began In1896, the games were held again in Athens, Greece The Greeks built a new stadium for the competition Three hundred and eleven athletes from thirteen countries competed in many events The winners became national heroes
After 1896, the games were held every four years during the summer in different cities around the world In 1900, the Olympics were in Paris, France, and women competed for the first time In 1908, in London, England, the first gold medals were given to winning athletes Before that time, the winners received only silver and bronze medals The Olympic flag was first introduced in 1920 in Antwerp, Belgium The flag has five rings on it The rings represent the continents of Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North and South American Each ring is a different color – blue, yellow, black, green, or red – because the flag of each of the countries that compete in the games has at least one of these colors in it
The Olympic Winter games began in 1924 in Chamonix, France Athletes competed in winter events such as skiing, ice skating, and ice hockey Today, the Winter Games take places every four years The Summer Games also take
Trang 13place every four years, but not in the same year as the winter events Both the Summer Games and the Winter Games must have at least fifteen events, and they cannot last more than sixteen days.
Until recently, Olympic competitors could not be professional athletes All of the athletes in the Olympic Games were amateurs Today, however, many of the Olympic athletes are professional who play their sports for money during the year Some people disagree with this idea They believe that the Olympic game are for amateur athletes, not paid professionals Other people think that any one can play in the Olympic Games No matter who the athletes are, millions of people throughout the world enjoy watching the greatest athletic competitions, the Summer Game and the Winter Games of the Olympics

Sea Turtles Feel the Heat
A Sea Turtles are some of the oldest species in the world The earliest sea turtles appeared over
200 million years ago Today, however, sea turtle are in trouble Their populations are getting smaller due to human activities and climate change.
B In Australia, conservationists are studying the effects of climate change on sea turtles They
believe global warming may affect sea turtles in several ways First, warming temperatures lead to rising sea levels As sea levels rise, beach areas become flooded Sea turtles lay their eggs in the
beach sand Flooding can destroy sea turtle nests and the eggs inside them.
C Global warming also raises the temperature of sand around a sea turtle’s nest The temperature
of the nest affects the sex of the turtle’s eggs Warmer temperatures (above 84 degrees Fahrenheit,
or 29 degrees Celsius) produce mostly females Cooler temperatures produce more males So, as
global temperature rise, more female babies will be born Scientists predict that in 50
years almost all sea turtle babies in northern Australia will be female.
D To survive these changes, sea turtles will need to adapt But adapting is difficult because the
environmental changes are happening quickly In addition, sea turtles are more at risk from other dangers, especially ones related to human activities For example, some populations are getting smaller because of predators brought in by humans As conservationist Mariana Fuentes says, ‘We can’t be sure if sea turtles will adapt on their own.’ They may need our help to survive.
E One of Fuentes’s projects is at Turtle Camp, a beach in northern Australia Here, Fuentes helps
to protect turtles that are laying eggs She works with a team of rangers and researchers Together,
they prevent predators such as wild pigs and dogs from eating the turtles’ eggs Without the
rangers’ help, the turtles were losing up to 90% of their eggs Now there are fewer predators, so the
turtles can safely lay their eggs.
Write the letter of the correct paragraph (A-E) from the reading next to its main idea.
1 Seaturtles may need help to survive climate change and other dangers.
2 Fuentes help to protect the areas where sea turtles lay their eggs.
3 Sea turtles are old species, but they are now in trouble.
4 Warmer temperatures affect the sex of sea turtles.
5 Climate change is causing problems for sea turtles.
Then listen and write T (true) or F (false)
