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.

The Internet is very much like television, in which it takes time away from other pursuits, provides entertainment and information, but in no way can compare with the warm, personal experience of reading a good book. This is not the only reason why the Internet will never replace books, for books provide the in-depth knowledge of a subject that sitting in front of a computer monitor cannot provide. We can download text from an Internet source, but the aesthetic quality of sheets of downloaded text leave much to be desired. A well-designed book enhances the reading experience.

The book is still the most compact and inexpensive means of conveying a dense amount of knowledge in a convenient package. The easy portability of the book is what makes it the most user-friendly format for knowledge ever invented. The idea that one can carry in one's pocket a play by Shakespeare, a novel by Charles Dickens or Tom Clancy, Plato's Dialogues, or the Bible in a small paperback edition is mind-boggling. We take such uncommon convenience for granted, not realizing that the book itself has undergone quite an evolution since the production of the Gutenberg Bible in 1455 and Shakespeare's First Folio in 1623, just three years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth to colonize the New World.

Not only has the art and craft of printing and book manufacturing been greatly improved over the centuries, but the great variety of subject matter now available in books is astounding, to say the least. In fact, the Internet requires the constant input of authors and their books to provide it with the information that makes it a useful tool for exploration and learning.

Another important reason why the Internet will never replace books is because those who wish to become writers want to see their works permanently published as books - something you can hold, see, feel, skim through, and read at one's leisure without the need for an electric current apart from a lamp. The writer may use a word processor instead of a typewriter or a pen and pad, but the finished product must eventually end up as a book if it is to have value to the reading public. The writer may use the Internet in the course of researching a subject just as he may use a library for that purpose, but the end product will still be a book.

What does the word "this" in the first paragraph refer to?

A. a good book

B. the Internet

C. the warm, personal experience of reading a good book

D. entertainment and information

Đáp án C

Từ “this” trong đoạn 1 thay thế cho từ nào?

A. Một cuốn sách hay

B. Internet

C. kinh nghiệm cá nhân ấm áp của việc đọc 1 cuốn sách hay

D. giải trí và thông tin

Căn cứ vào thông tin đoạn 1:

Từ “this" thay thế cho kinh nghiệm cá nhân ấm áp của việc đọc 1 cuốn sách hay.

The Internet is very much like television in which it takes time away from other pursuits, provides entertainment and information, but in no way can compare with the warm, personal experience of reading a good book. This is not the only reason why the Internet will never replace books, for books provide the in-depth knowledge of a subject that sitting in front of a computer monitor cannot provide. (Internet giống

như truyền hình, cái mà chiếm mất nhiều thời gian dùng để theo đuổi các mục đích khác, cung cấp giải trí và thông tin, nhưng không cách nào có thể so sánh với kinh nghiệm cá nhân ấm áp của việc đọc một cuốn sách hay. Đây không phải là lí do duy nhất tại sao Internet sẽ không bao giờ thay thế được sách, vì sách cung cấp kiến thức chuyên sâu về một chủ đề mà việc ngồi trước màn hình máy tính không thể cung cấp được.)

ĐÁP ÁN A

Giải thích: Câu hỏi này yêu cầu phân biệt nghĩa và cách dùng của những động từ có nghĩa tương tự nhau.

Invent (v) = phát minh ra, là sự sáng tạo có giá trị và đã tạo nên một thành phẩm

Create (v) = sáng tạo, là khả năng tưởng tượng ra nhiều trường hợp, ý kiến mới nhiều nhất có thể, dù có giá trị hay không

Make (v) = làm ra, là sự tạo thành sản phẩm từ các nguyên liệu, công thức đã có sẵn, không mang tính sáng tạo

Discover (v) = phát hiện, là tìm ra, khám phá ra một thứ, một điều vốn đã tồn tại từ trước nhưng chưa được biết đến

Ngôn ngữ là một phát minh có giá trị bậc nhất của loài người. Do đó, sử dụng từ “invent" là chính xác nhất.

Dịch nghĩa: How men fìrst learnt to invent words is unknown: in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. = Làm thế nào con người lần đầu tiên phát minh ra các từ ngữ vẫn chưa được biết rõ; nói cách khác, nguồn gốc của ngôn ngữ là một điều bí ẩn.

Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

        Sharks have gained an unfair reputation for being fierce predators of large sea animals. Humanity's unfounded fear and hatred of these ancient creatures is leading to a worldwide slaughter that may result in the extinction of many coastal shark species. The shark is the victim of a warped attitude of wildlife protection; we strive only to protect the beautiful, non-threatening parts of our environment. And, in our efforts to restore only non-threatening parts of our earth, we ignore other important parts.

        A perfect illustration of this attitude is the contrasting attitude toward another large sea animal, the dolphin. During the 1980s, environmentalists in the United States protested the use of driftnets for tuna fishing in the Pacific Ocean since these nets also caught dolphins. The environmentalists generated enough political and economic pressure to prevent tuna companies from buying tuna that had been caught in driftnets. In contrast to this effort on behalf of the dolphins, these same environmentalists have done very little to help save the Pacific Ocean sharks whose population has decreased nearly to the point of extinction.

Sharks are among the oldest creatures on earth, having survived in the seas for more than 350 million years. They are extremely efficient animals, feeding on wounded or dying animals, thus performing an important role in nature of weeding out the weaker animals in a species. Just the fact that species such as the Great White Shark have managed to live in the oceans for so many millions of years is enough proof of their efficiency and adaptability to changing environments. It is time for US humans, who may not survive another 1,000 years at the rate we are damaging the planet, to cast away our fears and begin considering the protection of sharks as an important part of a program for protection of all our natural environment.

Đáp án C.

Key words: environmentalists, protect, dolphins

Clue: “During the 1980s, environmentalists in the United States protested the use of driftnets for tuna fishing in the Pacific Ocean since these nets also caught dolphins. The environmentalists generated enough politic and economic pressure to prevent tuna companies from buying tuna that had been caught in driftnets”: Trong những năm 1980, những nhà hoạt động môi trường tại Mỹ đã phản đối việc sử dụng lưới kéo đế đánh bắt cá ngừ ở Thái Bình Dương vì những chiếc lưới này cũng bắt cả cá heo. Những nhà hoạt động môi trường gây ra đủ sức ép chính trị và kinh tế đế ngăn các công ty cá ngừ thu mua cá được bắt bởi lưới kéo.

A. They prevented fishermen from selling them for meat: họ ngăn ngư dân bán cá heo để lấy thịt

B. They pressured fishermen into protecting dolphins by law: họ gây áp lực bằng luật pháp đ buộc ngư dân bảo vệ cá heo

C. They brought political pressure against tuna companies: họ dùng sức ép chính trị để chống lại các công ty cá ngừ

D. They created sanctuaries where dolphin fishing was not allowed: họ tạo ra những khu bảo tồn nơi không cho phép đánh bắt cá heo

Những nhà hoạt động môi trường gây ra đủ sức ép chính trị và kinh tế để ngăn các công ty cá ngừ thu mua cá được bắt bởi lưới kéo do lưới kéo cũng bắt cả cá heo.

Vậy đáp án chính xác là đáp án C.
