Rachel Carson, an ecologist, a biologist, and a writer, was born in 1907 in Springdale, Pennsylvania. As a small girl, she was an avid reader and soon showed a keen interest in the natural world and writing. 1 She had her first story about animals published in a magazine when she was in the fourth grade. She graduated from Pennsylvania College for Women (now Chatham University) in 1929, studied at the Woods Hole Marine Biological Laboratory, and received her MA in zoology from Johns Hopkins University in 1932.

Initially, Rachel Carson worked for the US Bureau of Fisheries as a part-time science writer. 2 Part of her job was to interest the public in marine and freshwater biology via radio programmes. She then spent the next few years serving as a marine scientist and editor for the US Fish and Wildlife Service. There, she became famous for her writings on environmental pollution and the natural history of the sea, 3 She warned the public about its negative long-term effects. Climate change, rising sea-levels, melting Arctic glaciers, decreasing animal populations are part of her work. In her most influential book, Silent Spring (1962), Rachel Carson strongly disapproved of the widespread use of pesticides such as DDT. 4 Firstly, Silent Spring suggested a much-needed change in people's way of life and called for new policies to protect humans and the environment. She then was criticised by the chemical industry and some government officials, but never gave up. 5 The book eventually prompted a change in national policy, leading to the enactment of a national ban of pesticides on agricultural farming. Additionally, it helped spark the environmental movement, resulting in the establishment of the United States Environmental Protection Agency. That's why she was called the mother of modern ecology.

Rachel Carson died of breast cancer in 1964. However, her work continues to inspire new generations to protect all the living world.

Rachel Carson, nhà sinh thái học, nhà sinh vật học và nhà văn, sinh năm 1907 tại Springdale, Pennsylvania. Khi còn là một cô gái nhỏ, cô ấy là một người ham đọc sách và sớm thể hiện sự quan tâm sâu sắc đến thế giới tự nhiên và viết lách. Cô ấy có câu chuyện đầu tiên về động vật được đăng trên một tạp chí khi cô ấy học lớp bốn. Cô tốt nghiệp Đại học Phụ nữ Pennsylvania (nay là Đại học Chatham) vào năm 1929, học tại Phòng thí nghiệm Sinh học Biển Woods Hole và nhận bằng Thạc sĩ về động vật học tại Đại học Johns Hopkins vào năm 1932.

Ban đầu, Rachel Carson làm việc cho Cục Thủy sản Hoa Kỳ với tư cách là một nhà văn khoa học bán thời gian. Một phần công việc của cô là thu hút sự quan tâm của công chúng đến sinh vật biển và nước ngọt thông qua các chương trình phát thanh. Sau đó, cô đã dành vài năm tiếp theo với tư cách là nhà khoa học biển và biên tập viên cho Cơ quan Cá và Động vật hoang dã Hoa Kỳ. Ở đó, cô trở nên nổi tiếng với những bài viết về ô nhiễm môi trường và lịch sử tự nhiên của biển, Cô cảnh báo công chúng về những tác động tiêu cực lâu dài của nó. Biến đổi khí hậu, mực nước biển dâng cao, băng tan ở Bắc Cực, giảm quần thể động vật là một phần công việc của cô. Trong cuốn sách có ảnh hưởng nhất của mình, Silent Spring (1962), Rachel Carson cực lực phản đối việc sử dụng rộng rãi thuốc trừ sâu như DDT. Đầu tiên, Silent Spring đề xuất một sự thay đổi rất cần thiết trong cách sống của mọi người và kêu gọi các chính sách mới để bảo vệ con người và môi trường. Sau đó, cô bị chỉ trích bởi ngành công nghiệp hóa chất và một số quan chức chính phủ, nhưng không bao giờ bỏ cuộc. Cuốn sách cuối cùng đã thúc đẩy một sự thay đổi trong chính sách quốc gia, dẫn đến việc ban hành lệnh cấm toàn quốc về thuốc trừ sâu trong canh tác nông nghiệp. Ngoài ra, nó đã giúp châm ngòi cho phong trào môi trường, dẫn đến việc thành lập Cơ quan Bảo vệ Môi trường Hoa Kỳ. Đó là lý do tại sao cô được gọi là mẹ của hệ sinh thái hiện đại.

Rachel Carson qua đời vì bệnh ung thư vú vào năm 1964. Tuy nhiên, công việc của cô vẫn tiếp tục truyền cảm hứng cho các thế hệ mới bảo vệ tất cả thế giới sống.

1. Reading (Đọc hiểu)

Read the text and match the interview question A-E with paragraphs 1-4. There is one extra question.

(Đọc văn bản và nối câu hỏi phỏng vấn A-E với đoạn văn 1-4. Có một câu bị thừa.)

A. What is the most dangerous part of being a firefighter?

(Điều gì là phần nguy hiểm nhất khi trở thành một lính cứu hỏa?)

B. How physically fit do you have to be? 

(Bạn phải khỏe đến mức độ nào?)

C. How did you become a firefighter?

(Bạn đã trở thành lính cứu hỏa như thế nào?)

D. Why did you decide to become a firefighter? 

(Tại sao bạn lại quyết định trở thành lính cứu hỏa?)

E. What other skills do you need?

(Những kĩ năng khác cần có là gì?)

(1) _____ I'm Jack Gomez, a firefighter in California. I remember watching an interview with a firefighter pilot when I was a child. He'd been fighting a fire for about five days. He was exhausted then. However, he was so optimistic and committed that I thought that I wanted to do the same thing. And I never changed my mind.

(2) _____ I did a training camp to get my wildfire qualification card - you can't fight fires in the US without one. I learned how to light controlled fires, how to put them out again, and how to use all the equipment. The camp was really hard, but I passed first time! After that I was lucky enough to get a job.

(3) _____ One of the things you have to do in the early days is the pack test. This consists of a five - kilometre walk while carrying a twenty-kilogram backpack. You have to complete it in forty-five minutes or less without jogging or running. This shows how strong you are. 

(4) _____ You can be out alone in vast forests and national parks, and sometimes the smoke is so thick that you can hardly see. So, it is important to be able to read map, and to use a compass. Also, you must know how to put up a tent, cook outdoors, drive a truck, and have other basic survival skills.

Tạm dịch:

Tôi là Jack Gomez, một lính cứu hỏa ở California. Tôi nhớ đã từng xem một cuộc phỏng vấn với một phi công cứu hỏa hồi còn bé. Anh ấy đã chữa cháy trong 5 ngày. Anh ấy đã thấm mệt sau đó. Tuy nhiên, anh ấy tất lạc quan và tận tâm khiến tôi nghỉ tôi muốn được làm những việc giống thế. Và tôi chưa bao giờ thay đổi suy nghĩ.

Tôi đã tham gia một kì cắm trại huấn luyện để lấy thẻ chứng chỉ chữa cháy rừng – bạn không thể chữa cháy ở Mỹ mà không có nó. Tôi đã được học làm sao để đốt lửa có kiểm soát, và cách dập tắt chúng lại, và cách dùng tất cả các dụng cụ. Kì cắm trại rất khó khăn, nhưng tôi đã đậu ngay lần đầu! Sau đó tôi đã may mắn có công việc.

Một trong những thứ bạn phải làm trong những ngày đầu là kiểm tra khuân vác. Nó bao gồm đi bộ quãng đường năm cây số trong khi mang ba lô 20 cân. Bạn phải hoàn thành trong vòng 45 phút mà không được đi bộ nhanh hay chạy. Bài này sẽ cho biết bạn khỏe đến đâu.

Bạn có thể phải ở một mình trong những khu rừng rộng lớn hoặc vườn quốc gia, và đôi khi cột khói rất dày mà bạn không thể thấy gì. Nên chuyện có thể đọc bản đồ và sử dụng la bàn rất quan trọng. Hơn nữa, bạn phải biết cách dựng lều, nấu ăn ngoài trời, lái xe tải, và những kĩ năng sinh tồn cơ bản khác.
