KHOA HỌC HIỆN ĐẠI

Dừng như hoàn toàn tự nhiên đối với chúng ta khi có những nhóm các nhà khoa học trong các trường đại học và các tổ chức khác trên khắp thế giới, cố gắng khám phá cách thức thế giới hoạt động. Tuy nhiên, không phải lúc nào cũng như vậy. Mặc dù phương pháp khoa học hiện nay đã bốn hoặc năm trăm năm tuổi, nhưng người Hy Lạp cổ đại chẳng hạn, tin rằng họ có thể tìm ra nguyên nhân của các sự kiện tự nhiên chỉ bằng sức mạnh của tư tưởng. 

Trong suốt thế kỷ 17, ngày càng nhiều người bắt đầu nhận ra rằng họ có thể thử nghiệm các ý tưởng khoa học của mình bằng cách thiết kế một thí nghiệm có liên quan và xem điều gì sẽ xảy ra. Rất nhiều tiến bộ đã được thực hiện theo cách này bởi cá nhân các nhà khoa học. Những người đàn ông và phụ nữ này thường làm việc một mình, thực hiện nghiên cứu trong nhiều lĩnh vực khoa học khác nhau và họ thường nhận được rất ít phần thưởng cho công việc khó khăn của họ. Tuy nhiên, vào đầu thế kỷ 20, khoa học rõ ràng đã trở nên ngày càng phức tạp và đắt đỏ hơn. Các nhà khoa học cá nhân biến mất, được thay thế bởi các nhóm chuyên gia có trình độ cao. Khoa học hiện đại đã ra đời.

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   22  to  26

A.   Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.

The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the mast impressive Seven Wonders of the World. Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake TonIe Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia, Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century. The ruins of Angkor are documented as same .of the mast impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only beginning to ponder. The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water.

One possible explanation far the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to do with the inhabitants' irrigation system. The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River. Once filled, they were used to irrigate the surrounding rice patties and farmland during the course of the year. Farmers were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop. Without consistent irrigation, the farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production.

Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs and canals broke down. The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces required an enormous amount of physical labor. In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor. In order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently. After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity. Soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply. With less food available, the people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle. Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure.

22. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Modern day agricultural procedures in Cambodia.

B. A possible explanation for the, decline of a civilization.

C. The essential role water plays in farming.

D. Religious temples of the ancient Khmer Empire.

23. The passage preceding the passage most likely discusses ______.

A. architecture of ancient Asian civilization

B. religious practices of the people of Angkor

C. the form of government practiced by the Khmer Empire

D. the other six wonders of the world

24. According to the passage, Lake Tonle Sap in Cambodia ______.

A. is an enormous fresh body of water in Asia

B. was unable to supply enough fish for the people of Angkor

C. became polluted due to a population explosion

D. is one of the Seven Wonders of the World

25. Why does the author mention the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs?

A. They supplied irrigation from the Indian Ocean.

B. They became non-functional due to overuse.

C. They were destroyed by nearby warrior tribes.

D. They helped transport the sandstones for constructing temples.

26. It can be inferred from the passage that the inhabitants of the Khmer Empire ______.

A. were intentionally starved by the farmers

B. lost their food source due to excess rainfall

C. supplemented their diets with 'meat hunted in the nearby jungles

D. depended upon rice as their main source of food

27. All the following are mentioned as events that can affect food supply EXCEPT.

A. erosion of soil                                       B. contamination of soil

C. reduction of nutrients                            D. loss of water supply
