A The relationship between the ocean and the sun B The amount of sunlight reflected into space C A rise in global temperatures By Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 3/6 D The conditions that could lead to an ice age Question 37 Which of the following does the author NOT mention as a consequence of a large rise in global sea level? A The destruction of wetlands B The flooding of cities C A more diverse marine population D Severe storms Question 38 According to the passage, what is the relationship between carbon dioxide and the Earth’s climate? A Carbon dioxide, which is trapped in glacial ice, is released when warm temperatures cause the ice melt B The greenhouse effect, which leads to the warming of the climate, is result of too much carbon stored in the Earth’s crust C Rain causes carbon dioxide to be washed out of the atmosphere and into the ocean D An increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide results in the warming of the climate Question 39 The word beneficial in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A calm B inviting C thoughtful D favorable Question 40 The word massive can be replaced to A wide B huge C dense D thick Question 41 It can be inferred from the passage that the development of agriculture A preceded the development of animal husbandry B withstood vast changes in the Earth’s climate C did not take place during an ice age D was unaffected by the greenhouse effect Question 42 The word “this” in the third paragraph refers to A man’s upsetting the equation B the reduction of the level of carbon dioxide C a volcanic eruption D the melting of the polar ice caps Question 43 The word “inhospitable” is closest in meaning to A imperfect B uninhabitable C unlikable D cruel Question 44 What is the main topic of the passage? A The possibility that the popular ice caps will melt B The coming of another ice age C Man’s effect on the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere D The climate of the Earth over the years Read the following passage and mark on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the blanks Feminism, collective term for systems of belief and theories that pay special (45) _ to women’s rights and women’s position in culture and society The term tends to be used for the women’s rights movement, which began in the late 18th century and continues to campaign for complete political, social, and economic equality between women and men This article (46) _ specifically with the development of the ideas behind that movement and their (47) _ and impact Feminists are united by the idea that women’s position in society is unequal to (48) _ of men, and that society is structured in such a way as to benefit men to the political, social, and economic (495) _ of women However, feminists have used different theories to explain these (50) _ and have advocated different ways of redressing inequalities, and there are marked geographic and historical variations in the nature of feminism Historically, feminist thought and activity can be divided into two waves The first wave, which began in about 1800 and (51) _ until the 1930s, was largely concerned with gaining equal rights between women and men The second wave, which began in the late 1960s, has continued to fight for (52) _ but has also developed a (53) _ of theories and approaches that stress the difference between women and men and that draw attention to the (54) _ needs of women Question 45 A notice B attention C benefit D equality Question 46 A deals B provide C familiar D initiates By Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 4/6 Question 47 A pressure Question 48 A most Question 49 A detriment Question 50 A difference Question 51 A widened Question 52 A freedom Question 53 A kind Question 54 A definite B problem B those B deviance B unequalities B spent B independence B sort B specific C variation D influence C that D which C dismalness D diffusion C equalities D inequalities C lasted D lengthened C tradition D equality C range D type C vague D general Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer Before photography was invented in 1839, painted portraits, and engravings based on them, were one of the few ways to record likenesses From the Colonial era through the 1820s, portraiture was the most widely practiced genre of American art, and it continued to be a significant form through the 19th century The demand for likenesses was incessant, and portraiture was often the primary source of income for artists Artists frequently made portraits of famous people to attract interest and potential patrons For example, in 1834 Chester Harding painted frontiersman Davy Crockett, then a member of the U.S House of Representatives, for display in his Boston gallery A consistent belief through most of the 18th and 19th centuries was that character could be read from a person's face, or the bumps on his or her head, or from facial expressions, and that portraits should convey these indicators of character These theories of physiognomy and phrenology have since been debunked, but they were important considerations in depicting the nation's leaders, since such portraits were often made for posterity Most people had only one portrait painted in their lifetime, if at all, so artists were selected with great care, and expectations were high Before the 1840s, American portraiture was influenced primarily by English techniques, poses, compositions and gestures, and many artists received at least part of their training in England Even canvas sizes followed the British example Portraits made on commission were priced according to canvas size and the materials and labor involved In the late 19th century as European portraitists began traveling to the United States to acquire commissions from the growing upper class, American artists increasingly felt they needed to train abroad in order to succeed at home Paris continued to be the main lure as painters such as Eakins, Whistler, Beaux and Sargent went to study there Some of America's best-known portraitists, in fact, became expatriates Question 55 What does the passage mainly discussed?

A painted portraits and engravings were very lifelike B there was no accurate way to record a likeness before photography was invented C there were not many ways other than painted portraits and engravings if you wanted to record what somebody looked like D engravings were based on portraits and not as lifelike Question 57 Why does the author mention Davy Crockett in paragraph 1? A as an example of an artist using a famous person to gain attention to his work B because Crocket was also a famous artist C as an example of the types of people who could afford to pay for their portrait to be painted D because gallery owners often had famous people as patrons Question 58 In paragraph 2, what did people look for in a good portrait?
