Part IV. Read the passage below, then choose the correct answer A, B, C or D to each of the following questions (7 points)

Basketball

Although he created the game of basketball at the YMCA in Springfield, Massachusetts, Dr James A. Naismith was a Canadian. Working as a physical education instructor at the International YMCA, now Springfield college, Dr Naismith noticed a lack of interest in exercise among students during the wintertime. The New England winters were fierce, and the students balked at participating in outdoor activities. Naismith determined that a fast-moving game that could be played indoors would fill a void after the baseball and football seasons had ended.

First he attempted to adapt outdoor games such as soccer and rugby to indoor play, but he soon found them unsuitable for confined areas. Finally, he determined that he would have to invent a game.

In December of 1891, Dr Naismith hung two old peach baskets at either end of the gymnasium at the school, and using a soccer ball and all nine players on each side, organised the first basketball game. The early rules allowed three points for each basket and made running with the ball a violation. Every time a goal was made, someone had to climb a ladder to retrieve the ball.

Nevertheless, the game became popular. In less than a year, basketball was being played in both the United States and Canada. Five years later, a championship tournament was staged in New York City, which was won by the Brooklyn Central YMCA.

The teams had already been reduced to seven players, and five became standard in the 1897 season. When basketball was introduced as a demonstration sport in the 1904 Olympic Games in St. Louis, it quickly spread throughout the world. In 1906, a metal hoop was used for the first time to replace the basket, but the name basketball has remained.

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 best explainer videos are realized by great background score. When was the last time you watched a silent movie? Never? Not for a while? A long while? Even if you remember watching one, it would still have had a background score, or you’ve accidentally pressed the mute button!

The importance of background music and sound effects for your explainer video, therefore, cannot be overstated. You may not need a full blown orchestra or classy jazz tones to create the mood, but whether going for a subtle effect, a professional demonstration or simply trying to attract customers, music is a must. Explainer videos have the emotional quotient working for them and music is just going to add more to make the viewers relate to the pain points you are highlighting in your video. Imagine if your favorite video game has no background music or sound effects to back the amazing graphics? Would you play it with the same feel and excitement? Nah! Same is the case with your explainer videos. They need to and should have apt sound effects to make them worth your viewer’s time.

While the focus of explainer videos production is more on passing the desired information and explaining technical and complex procedures easily, it doesn’t mean you’ll be distracting your viewers with the background music. The sound effects and music is not going to take the message away from your explainer, it’s just going to enhance it and turn it more watchable and share-able. Even if your video doesn’t require a background score, it must include some sound effects or else it would be not so good an experience for those who choose to watch it.

Câu 35. According to paragraph 3, what is the fundamental and typical use of explainer videos?

A. It is used to distill wide-ranging and complex ideas into a viewer-friendly package.

B. Businesses use them to quickly introduce themselves and their importance.

C. It is designed as a means to stimulate both auditory and visual senses.

D. It helps the customers with their daily life problems with scientific information.

Đáp án A.

Key words: they, last paragraph, refers.

Clue: “Many musicians today credit earlier musicians such as Scott Joplin or Bessie Smith with inspiring their music. It’s a shame that they can’t also name the earliest African-Americans who really began the traditions that led to the American music of today”: Nhiều nhạc sĩ ngày nay ghi nhận những cái tên đi trước như Scott Joplin hay Bessie Smith vì những nghệ sĩ này đã truyền cảm hứng sáng tác cho họ. Đáng tiếc là họ không thể biết được tên tuổi của những người Mĩ gốc Phi xa xưa – những người đã thật sự tạo ra những truyền thống bắt nguồn cho nền âm nhạc nước Mĩ ngày nay.

Đáp án đúng là A. today’s musicians. “Họ” ở đây là những nhạc sĩ ngày nay.
