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. It’s often said that we team things at the wrong time. University students frequently do the minimum of work because they’re crazy about a good social life instead.

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.

It’s often said that we team things at the wrong time. University students frequently do the minimum of work because they’re crazy about a good social life instead. Children often scream before their piano practice 5 because it’s so boring. They have to be given gold stars and medals to be persuaded to swim, or have to be bribed to take exams. But the story is different when you’re older.

Over the years, I’ve done my share of adult learning. At 30, I went to a college and did courses in History and English. It was an amazing experience. For starters, I was paying, so there was no reason to be late - I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor was late, not the other way round. Indeed, if I could persuade him to linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus, not a nuisance. I wasn’t frightened to ask questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I passed an exam, I had a big meal, not for my parents or my teachers. The satisfaction I got was entirely personal.

Some people fear going back to school because they worry that their brains have got rusty. But the joy is that, although some parts have rusted up, your brain has learnt all kinds of other things since you were young. It has learnt to think independently and flexibly and is much better at relating one thing to another. What you lose in the rust department, you gain in the maturity department.

In some ways, age is a positive plus. For instance, when you’re older, you get less frustrated. Experience has told you that, if you’re calm and simply do something carefully again and again, eventually you’ll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas - from being able to drive a car, perhaps - means that if you can’t, say, build a chair instantly, you don’t, like a child, want to destroy your first pathetic attempts. Maturity tells you that you will, with application, eventually get there.

I hated piano lessons at school, but I was good at music. And coming back to it, with a teacher who could explain why certain exercises were useful and with musical concepts that, at the age of ten. I could never grasp, was magical. Initially, I did feel a bit strange, thumping out a piece that I’d played for my school exams, with just as little comprehension of what the composer intended as I’d had all those years before. But soon, complex emotions that I never knew poured out from my fingers, and suddenly I could understand why practice makes perfect.

The phrase “For starters” in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by ______

A. For beginners

B. At the beginning

C. At the starting point 

D. First and foremost

Đáp án D

“For starters” = “First and foremost”: đầu tiên và hàng đầu

For starters, I was paying, so there was no reason to be late – I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor was late, not the other way round.

Đầu tiên, tôi đã trả tiền, vì vậy không có lý do gì để đi trễ - Tôi là người sẽ cau mày và gõ gõ ngón tay nếu gia sư đến muộn, không phải là ngược lại.

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 from 30 to 34.

Bitcoins are a form of virtual currency. In other words, they are a type of money that does not exist in the actual world. However, they can be used to purchase actual products and services from real companies.

The bitcoin system was created in 2009 by an enigmatic person named Satoshi Nakamoto. In fact, no one is sure if Satoshi Nakamoto is an actual person or a group of people. Bitcoins are designed to serve as an alternative to national currencies, such as dollars and euros. They can be used to pay for things online instead of cash or credit cards. When bitcoins are transferred from a buyer to a seller, the transaction is recorded in a public database.

Governments are concerned that bitcoins can easily be stolen by hackers. It has dawned on them that they might be used for illegal purposes. For example, stolen goods could be purchased without the government’s knowledge. Although more and more companies are beginning to accept bitcoins, the percentage of purchases made using bitcoins is minuscule compared to other online payment methods, such as credit cards. Instead, many bitcoin owners simply keep them as an investment since they believe their bitcoins will be more valuable in the future.

This may or may not be a wise approach. Currently, the value of bitcoins is fluctuating wildly, especially when compared to highly stable national currencies. Bitcoin investors are gambling on the hope that as this high-tech money becomes more widely accepted, its value will soar.

Đáp án B

Giải thích: Câu gốc sử dụng cấu trúc câu điều kiện loại 2 để đưa ra lời khuyên:

“If + S + V(quá khứ đơn), S + would + V(nguyên thể)”  

Dịch nghĩa: Nếu tôi là bạn, tôi sẽ thích đi bằng tàu hỏa hơn là bằng xe buýt.

Phương án B. She advised me to go by train rather than by bus = Cô ấy đã khuyên tôi đi bằng tàu hỏa hơn là bằng xe buýt, là phương án có nghĩa của câu sát với nghĩa câu gốc nhất.

          A. She said that if she had been me, she would have gone by train than by bus = Cô ấy nói rằng nếu cô ấy đã là tôi, cô ấy sẽ đi bằng tàu hỏa hơn bằng xe buýt.        

Câu điều kiện loại 3 không được sử dụng để đưa ra lời khuyên. Còn câu điều kiện loại 2 khi chuyển sang câu tường thuật thì không lùi thì.

          C. She meant going by train was more interesting than going by bus = Ý cô ấy là đi bằng xe lửa thú vị hơn đi bằng xe buýt.

          D. Wherever she went, she always travelled by train = Bất cứ nơi nào cô đi, cô ấy luôn luôn đi bằng tàu hỏa.

D. Cơ sở dữ liệu công cộng

Thông tin: Bitcoins are a form of virtual currency. In other words, they are a type of money that does not exist in the actual world.

Tạm dịch: Bitcoin là một dạng tiền ảo. Nói cách khác, chúng là một loại tiền không tồn tại trong thế giới thực.

Dịch bài đọc:

Bitcoin là một dạng tiền ảo. Nói cách khác, chúng là một loại tiền không tồn tại trong thế giới thực. Tuy nhiên, chúng có thể được sử dụng để mua các sản phẩm và dịch vụ thực từ các công ty thực. Hệ thống bitcoin được tạo ra vào năm 2009 bởi một người bí ẩn tên Satoshi Nakamoto. Trên thực tế, không ai chắc chắn Satoshi Nakamoto là một người thật hay một nhóm người. Bitcoin được thiết kế để phục vụ thay thế cho các loại tiền tệ quốc gia, chẳng hạn như đô la và euro. Chúng có thể được sử dụng để thanh toán trực tuyến thay cho tiền mặt hoặc thẻ tín dụng. Khi bitcoin được chuyển từ người mua sang người bán, giao dịch được ghi lại trong cơ sở dữ liệu công khai.

Chính phủ lo ngại rằng bitcoin có thể dễ dàng bị đánh cắp bởi tin tặc. Họ nhận ra rằng chúng có thể được sử dụng cho mục đích bất hợp pháp. Ví dụ, hàng hóa bị đánh cắp có thể được mua mà chính phủ không biết. Mặc dù ngày càng có nhiều công ty bắt đầu chấp nhận bitcoin, nhưng tỷ lệ mua hàng được thực hiện bằng bitcoin là rất nhỏ so với các phương thức thanh toán trực tuyến khác, chẳng hạn như thẻ tín dụng. Thay vào đó, nhiều chủ sở hữu bitcoin chỉ đơn giản giữ chúng như một khoản đầu tư vì họ tin rằng nó sẽ có giá trị hơn trong tương lai.

Điều này có thể hoặc không thể là một cách tiếp cận khôn ngoan. Hiện tại, giá trị của bitcoin đang biến động mạnh mẽ, đặc biệt khi so sánh với các loại tiền tệ quốc gia có tính ổn định cao, các nhà đầu tư Bitcoin đang đánh bạc với hy vọng rằng khi loại tiền công nghệ cao này được chấp nhận rộng rãi hơn, giá trị của nó sẽ tăng cao
