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 13 to 20.

Have you ever thought about inventing something? Did you worry that your idea was too strange or

unrealistic? Well, maybe you should think again. Strange or unrealistic ideas never stopped Arthur Pedrick. Pedrick was a British inventor. Originally a government clerk, he spent his retirement in the 1960s and 1970s developing new and unusual ideas. Some of these ideas contradicted basic physics, but that didn’t stop Pedrick. One of his strangest ideas was a plan to connect large tubes from the continent of Australia all the way to Antarctica, a distance of 10,000 km! These tubes would carry giant ice balls from Antarctica to Australia. This ice would then melt in the Australian desert, and the water would be used in irrigation. Another of Pedrick’s inventions was a radio-controlled golf ball. A golfer could change the speed and direction of the golf ball by small flaps, controlled by computer chips. Using radio waves, the golfer could also find lost golf balls. Arthur Pedrick had thousands of bizarre ideas for inventions, most of which were never built.

Though many of Pedrick’s inventions were never developed, a lot of other strange ideas were. In 1989, a company designed and sold a theft-prevention device for expensive cars. As part of this device, several tubes were attached to the bottom of a car. If someone tried to steal the car, super hot flames would come out of the tubes and burn the car thief. Some people who were not thieves, however, were seriously injured. They accidentally set off the device by walking past the car. Other strange inventions include underwear for dogs and pens with drinkable ink. The underwear keeps dogs from making a mess when they go out for a walk. Also, if you are ever thirsty during a test, a pen with drinkable ink would be very handy! If you have an idea that seems a little out in left field, don’t let that stop you from trying it. You’ll be in good company

What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Some inventions are very strange

B. Some devices can help reduce crime

C. Inventing something is easy

D. Inventions are necessary for a good life

Dịch bài đọc:

Bạn đã bao giờ nghĩ về việc phát minh ra một cái gì đó? Bạn có lo lắng rằng ý tưởng của bạn quá xa lạ hay không thực tế? Có lẽ bạn nên suy nghĩ lại. Những ý tưởng kỳ lạ hoặc không thực tế không bao giờ ngăn cản Arthur Pedrick. Pedrick là một nhà phát minh người Anh. Xuất thân là một thư ký của chính phủ, ông đã dành thời gian nghỉ hưu vào những năm 1960 và 1970 để phát triển những ý tưởng mới và khác thường. Một số trong những ý tưởng này mâu thuẫn với vật lý cơ bản, nhưng điều đó không thể ngăn cản Pedrick. Một trong những ý tưởng kỳ lạ nhất của ông là kế hoạch kết nối các ống lớn từ châu Đại Dương đến Nam Cực,

với khoảng cách 10.000 km! Những ống này sẽ mang những quả bóng băng khổng lồ từ Nam Cực đến Úc. Tảng băng này sau đó sẽ tan chảy trên sa mạc Úc và nước sẽ được sử dụng để tưới tiêu. Một phát minh khác của Pedrick là một quả bóng gôn điều khiển bằng radio. Người chơi gôn có thể thay đổi tốc độ và hướng của quả bóng gôn bằng những cú đập nhỏ, được điều khiển bởi chip máy tính. Sử dụng sóng radio, người chơi gôn cũng có thể tìm thấy những quả bóng gôn bị mất. Arthur Pedrick có hàng ngàn ý tưởng kỳ quái cho các phát minh, hầu hết trong số đó không bao giờ được chế tạo.

Mặc dù nhiều phát minh của Pedrick không bao giờ được phát triển, rất nhiều ý tưởng kỳ lạ khác đã được thực hiện. Năm 1989, một công ty đã thiết kế và bán một thiết bị chống trộm cho những chiếc xe đắt tiền. Một phần của thiết bị này là một số ống được gắn vào đáy xe. Nếu ai đó cố gắng đánh cắp chiếc xe, ngọn lửa siêu nóng sẽ thoát ra khỏi ống và đốt cháy kẻ trộm xe. Tuy nhiên, một số người không phải là kẻ trộm đã bị thương nặng. Họ vô tình kích hoạt thiết bị khi đi ngang qua xe. Những phát minh kỳ lạ khác bao gồm đồ lót cho chó và bút mực có thể uống được. Đồ lót giữ cho chó không làm xung quanh hỗn độn khi chúng đi dạo. Ngoài ra, nếu bạn thấy khát trong giờ kiểm tra, một cây bút có mực uống được sẽ rất tiện dụng! Nếu bạn có một ý tưởng có vẻ không giống với người khác, đừng để điều đó ngăn bạn thử nó. Đừng lo lắng vì cũng có những người khác giống như bạn

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 43 to 52.

A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater, one of the world’s largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warned by geothermal heat from the earth’s core. This thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from frigid temperatures (the lowest ever recorded on Earth) on the surface.

The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area. Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake.

The discovery of such a huge fresh water lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated sampled from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this

In 1826, a Frenchman named Niépce needed pictures for his business. He was not a good artist, so he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the first photograph.

The next important date in the history of photography was 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his studio. He used a new kind of camera and a different process. In his pictures, you could see everything clearly, even the smallest details. This kind of photograph was called a daguerreotype.

Soon, other people began to use Daguerre's process. Travelers brought back daguerreotypes from all around the world. People photographed famous buildings, cities, and mountains.

In about 1840, the process was improved. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. The process was not simple and photographers had to carry lots of film and processing equipment. However, this did not stop photographers, especially in the United States. After 1840, daguerreotype artists were popular in most cities.

Matthew Brady was one well-known American photographer. He took many portraits of famous people. The portraits were unusual because they were lifelike and full of personality. Brady was also the first person to take pictures of a war. His 1862 Civil War pictures showed dead soldiers and ruined cities. They made the war seem more real and more terrible.

In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography. Photographers could buy film readymade in rolls, instead of having to make the film themselves. Also, they did not have to process the film immediately. They could bring it back to their studios and develop it later. They did not have to carry lots of equipment. And finally, the invention of the small handheld camera made photography less expensive.

With a small camera, anyone could be a photographer. People began to use cameras just for fun. They took pictures of their families, friends, and favorite places. They called these pictures "snapshots".

Documentary photographs became popular in newspapers in the 1890s. Soon magazines and books also used them. These pictures showed true events and people. They were much more real than drawings.

Some people began to think of photography as a form of art. They thought that photography could do more than show the real world. It could also show ideas and feelings, like other art forms. From “Reading Power” by Beatrice S. Mikulecky and Linda Jeffries

Which of the following could best serve as the title of the passage?

A. Different Steps in Film Processing

B. Story of Photography

C. Photography and Painting

D. Story of Famous Photographers
