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.

The first thing to do when you have a trip abroad is to check that your passport is valid. Holders of out–of–date passports are not allowed to travel overseas. Then you can prepare for your trip. If you don't know the language, you can have all kinds of problems communicating with local people. Buying a pocket dictionary can make a difference. You'll be able to order food, buy things in shops and ask for directions. It's worth getting one. Also there's nothing worse than arriving at your destination to find there are no hotels available. The obvious way to avoid this is to book in advance. This can save you money too. Another frustrating thing that can happen is to go somewhere and not know about important sightseeing places. Get a guide book before you leave and make the most of your trip. It's a must.

Then, when you are ready to pack your clothes, make sure they are the right kind. It's no good packing sweaters and coats for a hot country or T–shirts and shorts for a cold one. Check the local climate before you leave.

Also, be careful how much you pack in your bags. It's easy to take too many clothes and then not have enough space for souvenirs. But make sure you pack essentials. What about money? Well, it's a good idea to take some local currency with you but not too much. There are conveniently located cash machines (ATMs) in most big cities, and it's usually cheaper to use them than change your cash in banks. Then you'll have more money to spend. When you are at your destination, other travelers often have great information they are happy to share. Find out what they have to say. It could enhance your travelling experience.

Ý chính của bài là gì?

A. Những điều cần tránh khi bạn đi ra nước ngoài

B. Lời khuyên cho khách du lịch ở nước ngoài

C. Lợi ích của việc đi du lịch

D. Cách tìm máy ATM ở các thành phố lớn

Chọn B

Dịch bài đọc:

Điều đầu tiên cần làm khi bạn có một chuyến đi nước ngoài là kiểm tra xem hộ chiếu của bạn có hợp lệ không. Người mang hộ chiếu quá hạn không được phép đi du lịch nước ngoài. Sau đó, bạn có thể chuẩn bị cho chuyến đi của bạn. Nếu bạn không biết ngôn ngữ, bạn có thể gặp phải tất cả các loại vấn đề khi giao tiếp với người dân địa phương. Mua một từ điển bỏ túi có thể làm cho một sự khác biệt.

Bạn sẽ có thể đặt thức ăn, mua đồ trong cửa hàng và hỏi đường. Thật đáng để có được một. Ngoài ra, không có gì tệ hơn là đến điểm đến của bạn để tìm thấy không có khách sạn có sẵn. Cách rõ ràng để tránh điều này là đặt trước. Điều này cũng có thể giúp bạn tiết kiệm tiền. Một điều bực bội khác có thể xảy ra là đi đâu đó và không biết về những địa điểm tham quan quan trọng. Nhận một cuốn sách hướng dẫn trước khi bạn rời đi và tận dụng tối đa chuyến đi của bạn. Đó là phải.

Sau đó, khi bạn sẵn sàng đóng gói quần áo, hãy chắc chắn rằng chúng là loại phù hợp. Không có áo len và áo khoác đóng gói tốt cho một đất nước nóng hoặc áo phông và quần short cho một cái lạnh. Kiểm tra khí hậu địa phương trước khi bạn rời đi.

Ngoài ra, hãy cẩn thận bao nhiêu bạn đóng gói trong túi của bạn. Thật dễ dàng để lấy quá nhiều quần áo và sau đó không có đủ không gian để lưu niệm. Nhưng hãy chắc chắn rằng bạn đóng gói nhu yếu phẩm. Còn tiền thì sao? Vâng, đó là một ý tưởng tốt để mang theo một số tiền địa phương với bạn nhưng không quá nhiều. Có máy rút tiền (ATM) có vị trí thuận tiện ở hầu hết các thành phố lớn và thường sử dụng chúng rẻ hơn so với thay đổi tiền mặt của bạn trong ngân hàng. Sau đó, bạn sẽ có nhiều tiền hơn để chi tiêu. Khi bạn đang ở điểm đến của mình, những khách du lịch khác thường có thông tin tuyệt vời mà họ rất vui khi chia sẻ. Tìm hiểu những gì họ nói. Nó có thể nâng cao kinh nghiệm du lịch của bạn.

himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let's end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one's life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, "But suppose they fail to learn something essential, some­thing they will need to get on in the world?" Don't worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.

Question 50: The author fears that children will grow up into adults who are __________.

A. unable to think for themselves

B. too independent of others

C. unable to use basic skills

D. too critical of themselves

Đáp án A

Dịch nghĩa: Tác giả lo rằng những đứa trẻ lớn lên sẽ trở thành những người lớn mà ________.

A. Không thể tự suy nghĩ

B. Quá phụ thuộc vào người khác

C. Không thể sử dụng những kĩ năng cơ bản

D. Qua khắt khe với bản thân

Giải thích: Tác giả phê bình việc chỉ ra lỗi sai của trẻ và sửa nó giúp trẻ. Như vậy có thể suy ra là nếu cứ tiếp tục như vậy thì khi lớn lên, không ai chỉ cho, nó sẽ không thể độc lập suy nghĩ. Dễ nhầm lẫn với B nhưng phương án B chỉ đúng khi còn nhỏ, nó phụ thuộc vào thầy cô và cha mẹ để giúp nó, còn khi trưởng thành thì kết quả là nó không suy nghĩ được, đáp án A.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, 13, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the question.

Grandparents are becoming the forgotten generation, with youngsters now too busy to listen to their stories from the olden days.

A study of 1,000 five to 18 year-olds reveals just 21 per cent will visit their older relatives to hear about how their lives were different in the past; such as where they worked, how it was living in the war, and how they met the love of their life. More than half of youths have no idea what job their grandparent did before retirement - admitting they'd never thought to ask. Sadly, one in 10 admitted they are simply not interested in their grandmother's or grandad's previous job or talents and interests, and a quarter only turn up to see them for pocket money. But 23 per cent claim the reason they don't know anything about their older relatives is because they don't really get the chance to talk properly.

Geoff Bates, spokesman for McCarthy 8/. Stone's Inspirational Generation campaign, said: We know this generation have lived full lives with heroic tales to tell and so much to offer, but how many of us have actually thought to ask these questions of our older family members? We want to shout about the amazing feats retirees have achieved in their lifetime and put the spotlight on the wonderfully colorful lives of today's older people. We are calling on parents and children to talk to their grandparents, to find out what they have done in their lives - and continue to do, and tell us all about it so we can give them the credit they deserve."

Researchers found that although 65 per cent of youngsters do see their grandparents every single week, 37 per cent claim this is only because their parents want them to. And while 39 per cent talk to their grandparents on the phone, Facebook or Skype at least once a week - 16 per cent once a day - conversation is rarely focused on what they are doing or have done in the past. Four in 10 kids have no idea what their grandparents proudest achievements are, while 30 per cent don't know if they have any special skills or talents. And 42 per cent don't spend any time talking about their grandparent's history -and are therefore clueless about what their grandmother or grandad was like when they were younger. Perhaps due to this lack of communication and respect, just six per cent of children say they look up to their grandparents as a role model and inspiration. However, grandchildren are agreed their grandparents are both loving and friendly, while 43 per cent think they're funny - with 23 per cent admitting they often have more fun with their elderly relatives than their parents.

A study of 1,000 five to 18 year-olds reveals just 21 per cent will visit their older relatives to hear about how their lives were different in the past; such as where they worked, how it was living in the war, and how they met the love of their life. More than half of youths have no idea what job their grandparent did before retirement - admitting they'd never thought to ask. Sadly, one in 10 admitted they are simply not interested in their grandmother's or grandad's previous job or talents and interests, and a quarter only turn up to see them for pocket money. But 23 per cent claim the reason they don't know anything about their older relatives is because they don't really get the chance to talk properly.

Geoff Bates, spokesman for McCarthy 8/. Stone's Inspirational Generation campaign, said: We know this generation have lived full lives with heroic tales to tell and so much to offer, but how many of us have actually thought to ask these questions of our older family members? We want to shout about the amazing feats retirees have achieved in their lifetime and put the spotlight on the wonderfully colorful lives of today's older people. We are calling on parents and children to talk to their grandparents, to find out what they have done in their lives - and continue to do, and tell us all about it so we can give them the credit they deserve."

Researchers found that although 65 per cent of youngsters do see their grandparents every single week, 37 per cent claim this is only because their parents want them to. And while 39 per cent talk to their grandparents on the phone, Facebook or Skype at least once a week - 16 per cent once a day - conversation is rarely focused on what they are doing or have done in the past. Four in 10 kids have no idea what their grandparents proudest achievements are, while 30 per cent don't know if they have any special skills or talents. And 42 per cent don't spend any time talking about their grandparent's history -and are therefore clueless about what their grandmother or grandad was like when they were younger. Perhaps due to this lack of communication and respect, just six per cent of children say they look up to their grandparents as a role model and inspiration. However, grandchildren are agreed their grandparents are both loving and friendly, while 43 per cent think they're funny - with 23 per cent admitting they often have more fun with their elderly relatives than their parents.
