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 from 56 to 65. For more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming back to an empty house . Some deal with the situation by watching TV. Some may hide. But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They are called “ latchkey children ”. They are children who look after themselves while their parents work. And their bad condition has become a subject of concern. Lynette Long was once the principal of an elementary school. She said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached. I was constantly telling them to put the keys inside shirts. There were so many keys; it never came to my mind what they meant.” Slowly, she learned that they were house keys. She and her husband began talking to the children who had keys. They learned of the effect working couples and single parents were having on their children. Fear was the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. One in three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being frightened. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety. 3 The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. They may hide in a shower stall, under a bed or in a closet. The second is TV. They often turn the volume up. It’s hard to get statistics on latchkey children, the Longs have learned. Most parents are slow to admit that they leave their children alone.

A WALK IN THE MIDDLE SUN (When the heat is on, walkers need to be on their guard) Hot weather makes your heart pump harder, and you are not very fir, you start to understand why the majority of mountain rescue statistics are made up from summer walkers suffering heart attacks. Heat exhaustion is quite east to get when you are making a great physical effort. It happens where your body can’t produce enough sweat to keep you cool. The answer is to keep up your water intake. It’s good idea to drink a pint of water for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit every hour. So, if the temperature is in the 70s, and you are doing a five hour walk, you will need a minimum of around one and a half pints of water. It is vital that you don’t wait until you develop a raging thirst before you stop for a drink-keep taking regular swigs from your water bottle. Many walkers flavor their eater with fruit juice, which makes it a lot more palatable. You could even use one of the isotonic drink made for athletes, which replace the body’s salts lost through swearing. Powders such as Dioralyte, which you may have in the house as a treatment for diarrhea, will do the job just as well, as its main aim is also effective rehydration. Given that evaporation is your body’s cooling mechanism, you can help things along with an external application of water. Soaking your hat with water id a great way to cool the head, though if the sun id beating down, it will probably dry of almost immediately. Better still then if you can plunge into a river or the sea fully-clothed. And if that’s not possible, then at least take off your boots and socks and paddle in a cool stream. Walking in the heat increases the rate at which you feet swell, which can lead to them feeling tight in your boots. Cool water from a stream reduce any swelling and helps general foot comfort. At the same time, you can check out your feet for signs of blister. Extra sweating makes the skin softer and increases the chance of blisters forming, in the same way as when water leaks into your boots and gets to your feet. As for what clothing you wear, this should be lightweight and reasonably loose-fitting. Tight clothing will feel comfortable and may even lead to the formation of irritating rash known as “prickly heat” on your skin. The answer, if this does develop, is to try and stay cool as much as possible. Do this by either keeping in the shade, or washing the affected area with cold water, but with soap. But prevention is by far the best approach, so keep your clothing light. It’s understandable to want to remover any extraneous clothing when it’s extremely hot, but it doesn’t really make much sense to take off T-shirts. The sun’s rays can be quite strong, and shoulders are always very sensitive to sunburn. This is the worst place to be red and sore when you are wearing a heavy rucksack on your back. Wearing shorts can also create problems for walkers, as the backs of the legs can catch the sun very easily. In fact, those days when an apparently harmless breeze is blowing can be the most deceptive. It might not felt so hot, so you probably wont’ notice the damage being done so soon. As on every other day then, a good strong sun cream should therefore be applied to any skin which is exposed. Make the most of the summer, but treat the sun with the respect it deservers. 8 Question 1: The writer says that hot weather . A. is the main cause of heart attacks. B. Requires walkers to have frequent drinks. C. Is the worst type of weather for mountain walking. D. Ensures that mountain walkers stay fit. Question 2: What does the writer say about ‘Dioralyte’? A. It helps to reduce sweating. B. It prevents the loss of body salts. C. It prevents you getting diarrhea. D. It works in the same way as an isotonic drink. Question 3: “ It ” in line 23 refers to . A. the sun B. your hat C. the head D. water Question 4: According to the text, when might your feet suffer? A. when they cool down B. if you are wearing tightly-fitting boots C. when they are wet. D. If you have to walk through water. Question 5: According to the writer, it is better to wear loose-fitting clothing because . A. it keeps you cool. B. it is very light. C. It is less likely to create problems for your skin. D. It lasts longer than tight-fitting clothing. Question 6: What does the writer mean by “ extraneous ” clothing? A. clothing which is no longer needed to keep you warm B. clothing which most people would consider unusual in hot weather C. clothing which is too tight D. clothing which is too heavy to wear Question 7: According to the writer, when are walkers particularly at risk from the effects of the heat .

A. people who go walking in the mountains B. walkers who are unfit C. people who go walking in hot weather D. people who only go walking in summer Bài 2: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions. Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting from nature’s provision is the oldest known subsistence strategy and has been practiced for at least the last two million years. It was, 9 indeed, the only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced about 10,000 years ago. Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts and arctic wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant life. Such conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and waterways. The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environment differences have restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies. Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know from the observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting and gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp. When the food in the area has become exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration patterns evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes. These patterns of behavior may be similar to those practiced by mankind during the Paleolithic Period. Question 1: The word “domestication” in the first paragraph mostly means . A. adapting animals to suit a new working environment B. hatching and raising a new species of wild animals in the home C. teaching animals to do a particular job or activity in the home D. making wild animals used to living with and working for humans Question 2: According to the passage, subsistence societies depend mainly on . A. hunter-gatherers’ tools B. nature’s provision C. farming methods D. agricultural products Question 3: The word “marginal” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to “ ”. A. disadvantaged B. suburban C. forgotten D. abandoned Question 4: In the lower latitudes of the tropics, hunter-gatherers . A. can free themselves from hunting B. have better food gathering from nature C. live along the coasts and waterways for fishing D. harvest shorter seasonal crops Question 5: According to the passage, studies of contemporary subsistence societies can provide a . A. further understanding of prehistoric times B. broader vision of prehistoric natural environments C. further understanding of modern subsistence societies D. deeper insight into the dry-land farming Question 6: The word “conditions” in the second paragraph refers to . A. the places where plenty of animals and fish can be found B. the situation in which hunter-gatherers can grow some crops C. the environments where it is not favorable for vegetation to grow D. the situations in which hunter-gatherers hardly find anything to eat Question 7: A typical feature of both modern and prehistoric hunter-gatherers is that . A. they live in the forests for all their life 10 [...]... in animal survival D Defraying the cost of maintaining national parks Question 10: Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude?
