One of the biggest trends in television in recent years has been the rise of “Reality TV”. These shows, in which ordinary people are placed in unusual situations and then filmed without a script, have become some of the highest rating shows on television. Early programs of this genre, including Big Brother (from the Netherlands) and Survivor (from the United States), have led to dozens of copycat programs in many different countries. A common element to many of these programs is that a number of contestants are placed in a closed environment in which they are filmed 24 hours a day, and every week contestants are thrown off the show. What is it about these shows that makes them so popular? Perhaps it is because viewers enjoy watching ordinary people with real emotions being placed in extraordinary, situations. Or perhaps it is that people are really voyeurs - they enjoy being a spy, looking secretly into other people’s lives.

1. In recent years, "Reality TV has become more and more_______.

A. interesting                          B. unusual                          C. popular(dòng 1)          D. enjoyable

2. The underlined word ‘‘which” in the passage refers to_______.

A. a common element            B. a closed environment                          C. every week   D. the show

3. We can see that Big Brother is_______.

A. from the Netherlands                                                   B. from the United States

C. a copycat program                                                        D. shown in many different countries

II/ Read the passage. Then write True or False for each of the sentences below. (1.5pt)

In the UK we each use about two hundred steel food and drink cans every year. Steel cans are popular because they are convenient, easy to store and unbreakable. But when you have finished with a can what do you do with it? Do you throw it away and forget all about it? Probably! But behind the scenes there are people whose work is to make sure that the steel is never wasted. In fact, recycling or re-using steel cans is so successful that every day of the year more than five million cans start new lives in new steel products.

After you have thrown away your can, what happens? Well, first of all it is collected by the men who empty your dustbin each week and take to a tip, together with all the other household rubbish. Then the rubbish is sorted and the steel cans are taken separately to a special factory which turns old cans into high quality steel. It’s this steel that may well find its way back into your home in the form of knives and folks, garden equipment and, of course, food and drink cans.

So next time you open your fizzy drink, just remember where your can may have been!

23. In the UK people use about two hundred steel food and drinks cans yearly.________

24. Every year there are more than five million cans starting new lives in new steel products_________

25.Cans are sorted and then they are taken to the factory for recycling.___________

26.The steel cans can only be recycled to make into garden household _________

27. The topic sentence of this passage is___________

28. The nearest meaning of “its” in line 9 is____________

A. of the cans B. of the steel C. of the homes D. of the knives

Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in ..........(vary) ways. Some countries, in order to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then charge admission to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks and they often must also depend on world organizations for support. With the money they get, they can invest in equipment, and patrols to protect the animals. Another solution that is an attempt to stem the tide of animal extinction is an international boycott of products made from endangered species. This seems fairly effective but it will not, by itself, prevent animals from being hunted and killed.

WHO IS REALLY ON THE INTERNET?

One of the great things about the Internet, as well as one of its biggest problems, is
that people are basically anonymous on it. In Internet chat rooms and web cafés, people
can use a different name and even create an entirely different identity if they want to.
In some ways, this is a good thing. For many people, it gives them the chance to
do things that they could never do in real life. For example, a person might be very shy in
real life, but that same person may find the courage to make friends on the Internet
because it feels safer. In addition, people in some countries are not free to express their
opinions, especially if they don‟t like the government. By using a different identity on the
Internet, they can express their opinions without worrying about getting in trouble.
That same freedom to be “another person” on the Internet, however, causes many
problems as well. The major problem is Internet fraud. Many dishonest people use the
Internet to pretend to be a different person. Then they trick a person into trusting them in
some way and take their money. In one case, two Japanese men lied to Filipinos who
wanted to travel to Japan. The two Japanese men told them that they could help them get
visas to Japan for a small price (about $ 400 per person). The two Japanese men took
thousands of dollars from hopeful Filipinos, but none of the people ever got their visas.
The number of these kinds of crime is quickly rising. Last year, Internet criminals stole
over $ 350 million from trusting people. When you consider that only $ 57 million was
stolen in bank robberies in all of Europe, it is easy to see that Internet crime is a serious
problem.

1. The word 'anonymous' in bold in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to________.

A. nameless B. dishonest C. trusting D. criminal

2. According to paragraph 2 all of the following are true of the Internet EXCEPT_________.

A. it allows people to safely oppose their government.

B. it makes it easier for people to express themselves

C. its get people in trouble

D. it helps shy people make friends

3. They word 'they' in bold in paragraph 2 refers to__________.

A. people B. countries C. opinions D. friends

4. The author mentions two Japanese men in oder to__________.

A. suggest that there is a lot of Internet crime in Japan.

B. show that getting a visa is very difficult in Japan.

C. show that you shouldn't trust anyone on the Internet.

D. give an example of fraud on the Internet.

5. Why does the author mention bank robberies?

A. To show that there is more money in Internet crime than in robbing banks.

B. To suggest that Internet crime is easier than robbing banks.

C. To show that Internet crime is much more common than other types of crime.

D. To show that banks are safe than the Internet.
