And is what they learn the sort of thing they should be learning? It is my belief that children should not just be acquiring knowledge of animals but also developing attitudes and feelings towards them based on exposure to the real lives of animals in their natural habitats But is this happening? Some research in this area indicates that it is not Learning about animals in school is often completely disconnected from the real lives of real animals, with the result that children often end up with little or no understanding or lasting knowledge of them They learn factual information about animals, aimed at enabling them to identify them and have various abstract ideas about them, but that is the extent of their learning Children's storybooks tend to personify animals as characters rather than teach about them For direct contact with wild and international animals, the only opportunity most children have is visiting a zoo The educational benefit of this for children is often given as the main reason for doing it but research has shown that zoo visits seldom add to children's knowledge of animals – the animals are simply like exhibits in a museum that the children look at without engaging with them as living creatures Children who belong to wildlife or environmental organizations or who watch wildlife TV programmes, however, show significantly higher knowledge than any other group of children studied in research The studies show that if children learn about animals in their natural habitats, particularly through wildlife-based activities, they know more about them than they as a result of visiting zoos or learning about them in the classroom Research has also been done into the attitudes of children towards animals It shows that in general terms, children form strong attachments to individual animals, usually their pets, but not have strong feelings for animals in general This attitude is the norm regardless of the amount or kind of learning about animals they have at school However, those children who watch television wildlife programs show an interest in and affection for wildlife in its natural environment, and their regard for animals in general is higher (Adapted from New English File, by Christina Latham -Koenig, Oxford University Press) 39 What could be the best title for the passage? A Zoos: The Best Opportunity to Learn About Animals B Methods of Learning About Animals at School C Research on Learning About Animals D Learning About Animals at School 40 The word "disconnected" in paragraph is closest in meaning to A removed B separated C disagreed 41 What opinion does the writer express in the second paragraph?

A Learning about animals in their natural habitats teaches children more about animals than other methods B Children's storybooks give factual information about animals C Zoo visits have less educational benefit than they are believed to have D The writer raises the issue of the outcome of what children learn about animals 44 It can be inferred from paragraph that children's attitudes to animals A depend on whether or not they have pets B differ from what adults might expect them to be C based on how much they know about the animals D are not affected by what they learn about them at school 45 The word "regard" in paragraph is closest in meaning to A sympathy B opinion C attitude D respect Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word that differs from the other three in the position of primary stress in each of the following questions 46 A singer B hostel C effect D beauty 47 A furniture B attention C investment D computer Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that is closest in 48 "I'll tell you about this tomorrow, Mary." said Tom A Tom told Mary that he will tell her about that tomorrow B Tom told Mary that she would tell him about that the day before C Tom told Mary that I would tell you about that the next day D Tom told Mary that he would tell her about that the next day 49 It's not compulsory for freshmen to register this course A Freshmen shouldn't register this course B Freshmen don't have to register this course C Freshmen can't register this course D Freshmen ought not to register this course 50 My brother started studying French three years ago A My brother hasn't studied French for three years B My brother studied French for three years ago C My brother studies French for three years D My brother has studied French for three years ĐỀ THI THỬ TỐT NGHIỆP THPT 2023 KÌ THI TỐT NGHIỆP TRUNG HỌC PHỔ THÔNG NĂM 2023 Bài thi: NGOẠI NGỮ; Môn thi: TIẾNG ANH SỞ GIÁO DỤC VÀO TẠO TUN QUANG Mơn thi: TIẾNG ANH (Đề thi có 04 trang) Thời gian làm bài: 60 phút, không kể thời gian phát đề HƯỚNG DẪN GIẢI CHI TIẾT Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word whose underlined part A date B cat C fan D band Giải thích: A date /deɪt/ (n): ngày B cat /kæt/ (n): mèo C fan /fæn/ (n): quạt D band /bænd/ (n): ban nhạc Đáp án A có âm “a” phát âm /eɪ/, đáp án lại phát âm /æ/ → Chọn đáp án A A there B throw C threat D through Giải thích: A there /ðeər/ (adv): B throw /θrəʊ/ (v): ném, vứt C threat /θret/ (n): mối đe dọa D through /θruː/ (prep): xun qua, thơng qua Đáp án A có âm “th” phát âm /ð/, đáp án lại phát âm /θ/ → Chọn đáp án A Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions Sarah quit smoking two months ago She broke a she had had for more than half of her life A sweat Giải thích: Kiến thức từ vựng: B habit C fire D favour - sweat (n): mồ - habit (n): thói quen → break/kick a habit: bỏ thói quen - fire (n): lửa, đám cháy - favour (n): giúp đỡ Tạm dịch: Sarah bỏ hút thuốc vào hai tháng trước Cô bỏ thói quen mà có nửa đời → Chọn đáp án B We finally finished the project 2020 A during B on C at D in Giải thích: Giới từ: Trước năm → dùng “in” Tạm dịch: Chúng cuối hoàn thành dự án vào năm 2020 → Chọn đáp án D A new community house _ in our neighborhood A has built B build C builds D was built Giải thích: Câu bị động (Passive voice): Câu bị động QKĐ: was/were + V3/V-ed Tạm dịch: Một nhà cộng đồng xây dựng khu sống → Chọn đáp án D I will call and tell you something interesting _ A when I come home after work B when I had come home after work C when I was coming home after work D when I came home after work Giải thích: Hịa hợp thì: TLĐ + liên từ + HTĐ/HTHT Tạm dịch: Tôi gọi điện kể cho bạn nghe vài chuyện thú vị nhà sau làm → Chọn đáp án A Jane _ the word in the dictionary whenever she is not sure of its spelling or meaning A looks up B turns on Giải thích: Kiến thức cụm động từ (Phrasal verbs): - look up something: tra cứu C takes after D stands for - turn on something: bật - take after somebody/something: giống ai/cái - stand for something: viết tắt cho Tạm dịch: Jane tra cứu từ từ điển cô khơng cách phát âm nghĩa → Chọn đáp án A She has been writing to him since she _ his email A will have B is having C had D has Giải thích: Hịa hợp thì: HTHT/HTHTTD + since + QKĐ Tạm dịch: Cô viết thư cho anh kể từ nhận email anh → Chọn đáp án C Your sister is cooking lunch in the kitchen, _?
