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 36 to 42.

Paul Watson is an environmental activist. He is a man who believes that he must do something, not just talk about doing something. Paul believes in protecting endangered animals, and he protects them in controversial ways. Some people think that Watson is a hero and admire him very much. Other people think that he is a criminal.

On July 16th, 1979, Paul Watson and his crew were on his ship, which is called the Sea Shepherd. Watson and the people who work on the Sea Shepherd were hunting on the Atlantic Ocean near Portugal. However, they had a strange prey; instead of hunting for animals, their prey was a ship, the Sierra. The Sea Shepherd found the Sierra, ran into it and sank it. As a result, the Sierra never returned to the sea. The Sea Shepherd, on the other hand, returned to its home in Canada. Paul Watson and his workers thought that they had been successful.

The Sierra had been a whaling ship, which had operated illegally. The captain and crew of the Sierra did not obey any of the international laws that restrict whaling. Instead, they killed as many whales as they could, quickly cut off the meat, and froze it. Later, they sold the whale meat in countries where it is eaten.

Paul Watson tried to persuade the international whaling commission to stop the Sierra. However, the commission did very little, and Paul became impatient. He decided to stop the Sierra and other whaling ships in any way that he could. He offered to pay $25,000 to anyone who sank any illegal whaling ship, and he sank the Sierra. He acted because he believes that the whales must be protected. Still, he acted without the approval of the government; therefore, his actions were controversial.

Paul Watson is not the only environmental activist. Other men and women are also fighting to protect the Earth. Like Watson, they do not always have the approval of their governments, and like Watson, they have become impatient. Yet, because of their concern for the environment, they will act to protect it.

In paragraph 3, the phrase “and froze it” refers to ______.

A. whale meat

B. the Sierra

C. whales

D. the Sierra crew

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.

        Herman Melville, an American author best known today for his novel Moby Dick, was actually more popular during his lifetime for some of his other works. He traveled extensively and used the knowledge gained during his travels as the basis for his early novels. In 1837, at the age of eighteen, Melville signed as a cabin boy on a merchant ship that was to sail from his Massachusetts home to Liverpool, England. His experiences on this trip served as a basis for the novel Redburn (1849). In 1841 Melville set out on a whaling ship headed for the South Seas. After jumping ship in Tahiti, he wandered around the islands of Tahiti and Moorea. This South Sea island sojourn was a backdrop to the novel Omoo (1847). After three years away from home, Melville joined up with a U.S. naval frigate that was returning to the eastern United States around Cape Horn. The novel White-Jacket (1850) describes this lengthy voyage as a navy seaman.

        With the publication of these early adventure novels, Melville developed a strong and loyal following among readers eager for his tales of exotic places and situations. However, in 1851, with the publication of Moby Dick, Melville's popularity started to diminish. Moby Dick, on one level the saga of the hunt for the great white whale, was also a heavily symbolic allegory of the heroic struggle of man against the universe. The public was not ready for Melville's literary metamorphosis from romantic adventure to philosophical symbolism. It is ironic that the novel that served to diminish Melville's popularity during his lifetime is the one for which he is best known today.

According to the passage, Melville’s early novels were __________.

A. published while he was traveling

B. completely fictional 

C. all about his work on whaling ship

D. based on his travel experience

Dịch bài đọc:

Xăm là một nghệ thuật cổ xưa. Ở Hy Lạp cổ đại, những người có hình xăm được coi là thành viên của tầng lớp trên. Mặt khác, hình xăm bị cấm ở Châu Âu bởi các Kitô, người nghĩ rằng đó là một việc làm tội lỗi. Mãi cho đến cuối thế kỷ 18, khi thuyền trưởng Cook nhìn thấy người đảo Nam Hải trang trí cơ thể của họ bằng hình xăm, thái độ bắt đầu thay đổi. Những thủy thủ trở lại từ những hòn đảo này với hình ảnh của Chúa Kitô trên lưng của họ và từ đó về sau, hình xăm đã trở nên phổ biến. Cuộc điều tra của quân đội Pháp năm 1881 cho thấy trong 387 người được hỏi có 1.333 mẫu thiết kế.

Ngày nay, không phải ai cũng có thể chấp nhận hình xăm. Một số người nghĩ xăm một cái trên người là điều ngớ ngẩn vì những hình xăm ít nhiều là vĩnh viễn. Cũng có một số mối quan tâm về việc mắc một bệnh về máu từ kim tiêm không được tiệt trùng. Ngay cả đối với những người muốn có một hình xăm, quá trình xăm không phải không đau, nhưng kết quả cuối cùng, trong mắt họ, là đáng để chịu đau.
