Part 2 Read the two following passages and choose the best answer for each question by circling the corresponding letter A, B, C, or D (2 points)

Passage A

I was born in Venice, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Italy, and studied architecture at university here Though I have also spent time away, I have always come back because it’s my home

In Venice, there are no roads, only canals, so you have to get around on foot or by boat I live on a canal in the Rialto area in a house that was built in 1588 for the Muti family, who were merchants in the silk trade In the mid-eighteenth century, it was home to the Vezzi family, who made things like plates and bowls in fine china and became rich sending these around the world These merchants’ houses in Venice are like palaces Their owners had to have space to show off their goods, but the building also had to be an office, a factory, a store and a home My house came into our family in 1919, when it was bought by my grandfather

He died before I was born but he was the director of a museum where I often do research on

old documents On some of these, I’ve seen notes in his handwriting, so, in a strange way, I

met him through these documents

Sadly, the population of Venice has dropped from 120,000 in the 1950s to about 60,000 now This doesn’t include the thousands of tourists who come to visit I welcome the tourists but unless something is done to stop everyday shops like bakeries and chemists from disappearing, the city will die I want people who love the city to come here to live and work and give Venice back a life that is not just about tourism

1 The writer’s main reason for writing this passage is .

A to persuade more tourists to visit his city

B to give readers the history of his home town

C to say what he feels about his birthplace

D to describe some important moments in his life

2 The family who first owned the writer’s house .

A used to buy and sell silk B produced plates and bowls

C were skilled architects D helped to build the canals

3 What does the writer say about his grandfather?

A His grandfather taught him how to study documents

Trang 7

B He didn’t find his grandfather’s handwriting easy to read

C He wasn’t able to get to know his grandfather personally

D His grandfather turned his home into a museum

4 What is the writer’s attitude to Venice today?

A He hopes tourists will stop visiting the city

B He would like people to get jobs working with tourists

C He believes the city would benefit from having fewer inhabitants

D He thinks local businesses should be encouraged to stay

5 What does the word “these” in the passage refer to?

A owners B documents C handwritings D notes

Passage B

Cat Tien national park was protected initially in 1978 as two sectors, Nam Cat Tien and Tay Cat Tien Another sector, Cat Loc, was gazetted as a Rhinoceros Reserve in 1992 upon the discovery of a population of Java Rhinoceros, an occasion that brought the park into the world’ eye The three areas were combined to from one park in 1998

The park suffered historically during the Vietnam War when it was extensively sprayed with pesticides like the defoliant Agent Orange To this day, these areas have extensive bamboos and grasslands cover and trees have not grown back yet

Cat Tien comprises an important reserve in Vietnam, both for the habitat it protects and the species As well as being a critical reserve for the Java Rhino, it is also home to 40 IUCN Red List species, and protects around 30% of Vietnam’s species The park is, however, threatened by illegal logging and poaching In addition, the park is too small for the larger species found inside it, this leads to either their local extinction or conflicts with local people

as these animals move beyond the confines of the park This problem is particularly intense for the park’s elephant population, which is prone to wandering and is considered too small to

be self-sustainable

Since the early 1990s, partly as a result of the discovery of rhinos in the park, international donors and the Vietnamese government began to invest more money in protecting the park and managing the resources of local State Forest Enterprises nearby and adjoining forests to synchronize with the park as a whole There have been moves to combine

a management plan that allows for both traditional park management and some limited resource utilization by local people

6 How many different areas did the present Cat Tien national park use to be?

7 Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A Forty species of IUCN Red List are found in Cat Tien national Park

B Cat Tien national Park is too small for the elephants

C Cat Tien national park protects thirty percents of the world’s species

D In 1978, Nam Cat Tien and Tay Cat Tien were set up

Trang 8

8 What are threatening Cat Tien national park now?

A Trees are cut down illegally B Animals are protected illegally

C It is too small nowadays D Elephant population is going up

9 What is happening to the large species found in Cat Tien national park?

A They are in danger of extinction B They have conflicts with hunters

C They are killed by local people D They get out of the park

10 Why are there mainly bamboos and grassland in the park nowadays?

A Because of the effect of chemical pollutants released in the war

B Because of illegal logging

C Because local people only want to plant these plants

D Because international donor invested money to protect these plants

Part 3 Complete the letter by filling ONE appropriate word for each space (1 point)
