Identify your answer by writing the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on the answer sheet. Several hundred million years ago, plants similar to modern ferns covered vast stretches of the land. Some were as large as trees, with giant fronds bunched at the top of trunks as straight as pillars. Others were the size of bushes and formed thickets of undergrowth. Still others lived in the shade of giant club mosses and horsetails along the edges of swampy lagoons where giant amphibians swan. A great number of these plants were true ferns, reproducing themselves without fruits or seeds. Others had only the appearance of ferns. Their leaves had organs of sexual reproduction and produced seeds. Although their “flowers” did not have corollas, these false ferns (today completely extinct) ushered in the era of flowering plants. Traces of these flora of the earliest times have been preserved in the form of fossils. Such traces are most commonly found in shale and sandstone rocks wedged between coal beds. Today only tropical forests bear living proof of the ancient greatness of ferns. The species that grow there are no longer those of the Carboniferous period, but their variety and vast numbers, and the great size of some, remind us of the time when ferns ruled the plant kingdom. 1. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. Plant reproduction B. How to locate fossils C. An ancient form of plant life D. Tropical plant life 2. The word “others” in bold refers to A. plants B. pillars C. trees D. fronds 3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a characteristic of the plants described in the passage? A. They once spread over large areas of land. B. They varied greatly in size. C. They coexisted with amphibians, mosses, and horsetails. D. They clung to tree trunks and bushes for support. 4. The author states that fossils of early plant life are usually found in rocks located between deposits of A. coal B. shale C. sandstone D. corollas 5. The word “bear” in bold could best be replaced by which of the following? A. call for B. provide C. tolerate D. suffer III. Read the passages below and choose the best answer from the four options marked A, B, C or D. Identify your answer by writing the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on the answer sheet. Most of us tend to think of production when we think of mass media industries. After all, it is the output of this production – the papers we read, the cable TV shows we watch – that grab our attention, make us happy or angry, interested or bored. Moreover, most public discussion about mass communication tends to be about production. The latest gossip about that actor will be in what film, the angry comments a mayor makes about the violence on local TV news, the newest CDs by an upandcoming group – these are the kinds of topics that focus our attention on the making of content, not its distribution or exhibition. Media executives know, however, that production is only one step in the arduous and risky process of getting a mass media idea to an audience. Distribution is the delivery of the produced material to the point where it will be shown to its intended audience. The activity takes place out of public view. We have already mentioned the NBC acts as a distributor when it disseminates television programming via satellite to TV stations. When Philadelphia Newspapers Inc. delivers its Philadelphia Inquirer to city newsstands, when Twentieth – Century – Fox moves its Musicland stores, they are involved in distribution to exhibitions. 1. In this passage, “arduous” means________. A. difficult B. lucrative C. lengthy D. free 2. The passage states that people tend to focus on production because _______. A. it takes place out of public view B. mass media companies do not own production divisions C. the output of mass media is intended to grab our attention D. companies can function as both producers and distributors 3. In this passage, to “disseminate” means to _______. A. create B. send out C. take in D. fertilize 4. This passage states that distribution is_______. A. the first step in mass media production B. the most talkedabout step in mass media production C. at least as important as production D. not as important as exhibition 5. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________. A. tell an interesting story B. define a concept clearly C. describe a scene vividly D. argue with the reader IV. WRITING I. Rewrite the following sentences using the given words so that they have the same meaning as the given sentences. Do not change the words given in any way. 1. Be careful of thieves if you go to that part of town. (Watch) _____________________________________________________________________________ 2. Please behave in my house as you would in your own house. (make) _____________________________________________________________________________ 3. Nobody helped me to build this. (own) _____________________________________________________________________________ 4. I don’t really like this kind of music. (keen) _____________________________________________________________________________ 5. Most university students need the financial support of their parents. (depend) _____________________________________________________________________________ II. Wring a topic “There are some advantages and disadvantages of the cinema. ” Do you agree with this statement? Write an essay about 250 – 300 words to an educated non – specialist audience on this topic. You should give reasons for your answers and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.

Identify your answer by writing the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on the answer sheet. Several hundred million years ago, plants similar to modern ferns covered vast stretches of the land. Some were as large as trees, with giant fronds bunched at the top of trunks as straight as pillars. Others were the size of bushes and formed thickets of undergrowth. Still others lived in the shade of giant club mosses and horsetails along the edges of swampy lagoons where giant amphibians swan. A great number of these plants were true ferns, reproducing themselves without fruits or seeds. Others had only the appearance of ferns. Their leaves had organs of sexual reproduction and produced seeds. Although their “flowers” did not have corollas, these false ferns (today completely extinct) ushered in the era of flowering plants. Traces of these flora of the earliest times have been preserved in the form of fossils. Such traces are most commonly found in shale and sandstone rocks wedged between coal beds. Today only tropical forests bear living proof of the ancient greatness of ferns. The species that grow there are no longer those of the Carboniferous period, but their variety and vast numbers, and the great size of some, remind us of the time when ferns ruled the plant kingdom. 1. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. Plant reproduction B. How to locate fossils C. An ancient form of plant life D. Tropical plant life 2. The word “others” in bold refers to A. plants B. pillars C. trees D. fronds 3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a characteristic of the plants described in the passage? A. They once spread over large areas of land. B. They varied greatly in size. C. They coexisted with amphibians, mosses, and horsetails. D. They clung to tree trunks and bushes for support. 4. The author states that fossils of early plant life are usually found in rocks located between deposits of A. coal B. shale C. sandstone D. corollas 5. The word “bear” in bold could best be replaced by which of the following? A. call for B. provide C. tolerate D. suffer III.

Hướng dẫn chấm Đề thi HSG Tiếng Anh 10 THPT Chuyên Most of us tend to think of production when we think of mass media industries. After all, it is the output of this production – the papers we read, the cable TV shows we watch – that grab our attention, make us happy or angry, interested or bored. Moreover, most public discussion about mass communication tends to be about production. The latest gossip about that actor will be in what film, the angry comments a mayor makes about the violence on local TV news, the newest CDs by an up-and-coming group – these are the kinds of topics that focus our attention on the making of content, not its distribution or exhibition. Media executives know, however, that production is only one step in the arduous and risky process of getting a mass media idea to an audience. Distribution is the delivery of the produced material to the point where it will be shown to its intended audience. The activity takes place out of public view. We have already mentioned the NBC acts as a distributor when it disseminates television programming via satellite to TV stations. When Philadelphia Newspapers Inc. delivers its Philadelphia Inquirer to city newsstands, when Twentieth – Century – Fox moves its Musicland stores, they are involved in distribution to exhibitions. 1. In this passage, “arduous” means________. A. difficult B. lucrative C. lengthy D. free 2. The passage states that people tend to focus on production because _______. A. it takes place out of public view B. mass media companies do not own production divisions C. the output of mass media is intended to grab our attention D. companies can function as both producers and distributors 3.

A. the first step in mass media production B. the most talked-about step in mass media production C. at least as important as production D. not as important as exhibition 5.
