answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 46 to 55 Television has transformed politics by changing the way in which information is disseminated, by altering political campaigns, and by changing citizen's patterns of response to politics By giving citizens independent access to the candidates, television diminished the role of the political party in the selection of the major party candidates By centering politics on the person of the candidate, television accelerated the citizen's focus on character rather than issues Television has altered the forms of political communication as well The messages on which most of us rely are briefer than they once were The stump speech, a political speech given by traveling politicians and lasting 3/2 to hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has given way to the 30-second advertisement and the 10 second "sound bite" in broadcast news Increasingly the audience for speeches is not that standing in front of the politician but rather the viewing audience who will hear and see a snippet of the speech on the news In these abbreviated forms, much of what constituted the traditional political discourse of earlier ages has been lost In 15 or 30 seconds, a speaker cannot establish the historical context that shaped the issue in question, cannot detail the probable causes of the problem, and cannot examine alternative proposals to argue that one is preferable to others In snippets, politicians assert but not argue Because television is an intimate medium, speaking through it require a changed political style that was more conversational, personal, and visual than that of the old style stump speech Reliance on television means that increasingly our political world contains memorable pictures rather than memorable words Schools teach us to analyze words and print However, in a word in which politics is increasingly visual, informed citizenship requires a new set of skills Recognizing the power of television's pictures, politicians craft staged events, called pseudo-event, designed to attract media coverage Much of the political activity we see on television news has been crafted by politicians, their speechwriters, and their public relations advisers for televised consumption Sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements 36 The main point of the passage is that A citizens in the United States are now more informed about political issues because of television coverage B citizens in the United States prefer to see politicians on television instead of in person C politics in the United States has become substantially more controversial since the introduction of television D politics in the United States has been significantly changed by television 37 It can be inferred from the passage that before the introduction of television political parties _ A had more influence over the selection of political candidates B spent more money to promote their political candidates C attracted more members D received more money 38 The author mentions the "stump speech" in paragraph as an example of _ A an event created by politicians to attract media attention B an interactive discussion between two politicians C political presentation typical of the 19th century D a style of speech common to televised political events 39 The phrase "given way to" in paragraph can be best replaced by _ A added interest to B modified C imitated D been replaced by 40 The word "that" in line refers to _ A audience B broadcast news C politician D advertisement 41 According to the passage, traditional political discourse was more successful than televised speeches because it A allows news coverage of political candidates B places political issues within a historical context C makes politics seem more intimate to citizens D provides detailed information about a candidates private behavior 42 By saying that "politicians assert but not argue", the author means that politicians A make claims without providing reasons for the claims B take stronger positions on issues than in the past C enjoy explaining the issue to broadcasters D dislike having to explain their own positions on issues to citizens 43 It can be inferred from paragraph that _ A politicians will need to learn to become more personal when meeting citizens B politicians who are considered very attractive are favored by citizens over politicians who are less attractive C citizens tend to favor a politician who analyzed the issue over one who does not D citizens will need to learn how to evaluate visual political images in order to become better informed 44 According to paragraph 5, staged political events are created so that politicians can _ A create more time to discuss political issues B obtain more television coverage for themselves C spend more time talking to citizens in person D engage in debates with their opponents 45 The passage supports the statement that _ A Political presentations today are more like advertisements than in the past B Politicians today tend to be more familiar with the views of citizens than in the past C Citizens today are less informed about a politician's character than in the past D Political speeches today focus more on details about issues than in the past Mark the

The most accepted theory about the origin of the Moon is that it was formed of the debris from a massive collision with the young Earth about 4.6 billion years ago A huge body, perhaps the size of Mars, struck the Earth, throwing out an immense amount of debris that coalesced and cooled in orbit around the Earth The development of Earth is inextricably linked to the moon; the Moon's gravitational influence upon the Earth is the primary cause of ocean tides In fact, the Moon has more than twice the effect upon the tides than does the Sun The Moon makes one rotation and completes a revolution around the Earth every 27 days, hours, and 43 minutes This synchronous rotation is caused by an uneven distribution of mass in the Moon (essentially, it is heavier on one side than the other) and has allowed the Earth's gravity to keep one side of the Moon permanently facing Earth It is an average distance from Earth of 384,403 km The Moon has no atmosphere; without an atmosphere, the Moon has nothing to protect it from meteorite impacts, and thus the surface of the Moon is covered with impact craters, both large and small The Moon also has no active tectonic or volcanic activity, so the erosive effects of atmospheric weathering, tectonic shifts, and volcanic upheavals that tend to erase and reform the Earth's surface features are not at work on the Moon In fact, even tiny surface features such as the footprint left by an astronaut in the lunar soil are likely to last for millions of years, unless obliterated by a chance meteorite strike The surface gravity of the Moon is about one-sixth that of the Earth's Therefore, a man weighing 82 kilograms on Earth would only weigh 14 kilograms on the Moon The geographical features of the Earth most like that of the Moon are, in fact, places such as the Hawaiian volcanic craters and the huge meteor crater in Arizona The climate of the Moon is very unlike either Hawaii or Arizona, however; in fact the temperature on the Moon ranges between 123 degrees C to 233 degrees C 61 What is the passage primarily about? A the Moon's effect upon the Earth B the origin of the Moon C what we know about the Moon and its differences to Earth D a comparison of the Moon and the Earth 62 Which of the following is the word "massive" closest in meaning to? A unavoidable B dense C huge D impressive 63 Which of the following is the word "debris" closest in meaning to? A rubbish B satellites C moons D earth 64 According to the passage, which of the following is True about the Moon? A It is older than the Earth B It is protected by a dense atmosphere C It is composed of a few active volcanoes D It is the primary cause of Earth's ocean tides 65 Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word "uneven" in the passage? A Heavier B Equally distributed C Orderly D Not uniform 66 Why does the author mention "impact craters" in the third paragraph? A to show the result of the Moon not having an atmosphere B to show the result of the Moon not having active tectonic or volcanic activity C to explain why the Moon has no plant life because of meteorites D to explain the corrosive effects of atmospheric weathering 67 Which of the following can best replace the word "erase" in paragraph 3? A change B impact C obliterate D erupt 68 Why would a person on the Moon would weigh less than on the Earth? A Because of the composition of lunar soil B Because the surface gravity of the Moon is less C Because the Moon has no atmosphere D Because the Moon has no active tectonic or volcanic activity 69 Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the Moon? A It has a wide range of temperatures B It is heavier on one side than the other C It is unable to protect itself from meteorite attacks D It has less effect upon the tides than the Sun 70 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A The Moon is not able to support human life B If the Moon had no gravitational influence, the Earth would not have tides C People living in Hawaii and Arizona would feel at home on the Moon D Mars could have been formed in a similar way to the Moon Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of following questions 71 Tarn will wash the clothes, A iron the shirts, prepare the meal, dusting the furniture B ironing the shirts, preparing the meal, and dusting the furniture C iron the shirts, prepare the meal, and dust the furniture D to iron the shirts, prepare the meal, and dust the furniture 72 your friend, but he's also mine A Not only he is B Not is he only C Not only is he D He only is not 73 when the electricity went out A We had started our lessons C Hardly we had started our lessons B We hardly had started our lessons D Hardly had we started our lessons 74 I don't remember …………… of the decision to change the company policy on vacations When was it decided?

questions On March 25, 1911, one of the five hundred employees of the Triangle Shirtwaist factory in New York noticed that a rag bin near her eighth- floor work station was on fire Workers immediately tried to extinguish the flames Their efforts prove futile, as piles of fabric ignited all over the eighth floor The manager of the factory ordered his employees to unroll the fire extinguisher hose, but they found it rotted and useless The shirt factory occupied the top three floors of the ten- story Asch Building The seventy employees who worked on the tenth floor escaped the fire by way of the staircases or climbed onto the roof, where students from New York University, located across the street, stretched ladders over to the Asch Building The 260 workers on the ninth floor had the worst luck of all Although the eighth- floor workers tried to warn them by telephone, the call did not reach them, and by the time they learned about the fire, their routes of escape were mostly blocked Some managed to climb down the cables of the freight elevator Others crammed into the narrow stairway Still others climbed onto the single, inadequately 6|7 constructed fire escape But that spindly structure could not support the weight of hundreds of people, and it separated from the wall, falling to the ground and carrying many people with it To combat the disaster, the New York Fire Department sent thirty five pieces of equipment, including a hook and ladder The young women trapped on the ninth- floor window ledge watched in horror as the ladder, fully raised, stopped far below them, reaching only as far as the sixth floor Within minutes, the factory- a fire trap typical of the period’s working conditions- was consumed by flame, killing 146 workers, mostly immigrant women City officials set up a temporary morgue on 26th Street, and over the next few days streams of survivors filed through the building to identify the dead The Triangle Shirtwaist fire brought a public outcry for laws to regulate the safety of working conditions The New York Factory Investigating Commission was formed to examine the working conditions in factories throughout the state Their report introduced many new regulations The fire had occurred during an era of progressive reform that was beginning to sweep the nation, as people decided that government had a responsibility to ensure that private industry protected the welfare of working people Question 71: What does the passage mainly discuss? A The causes of a fire in a shirt factory C Escaping from a fire in a shirt factory B Working conditions in New York City D The events surrounding a tragic fire Question 72: The word “ignited” in paragraph could best be replaced by A became wet B caught fire C exploded D spread Question 73: According to the passage, the fire began A on the ninth floor C when some rags started burning B when a worker dropped a cigarette D when a pile of fabric rotted Question 74: Why does the writer mention the fire extinguisher hose in paragraph 1? A To emphasize the unsafe working conditions B To show the manager’s competence C To illustrate the factory’s modern technology D To explain how the fire was eventually put out Question 75: How did many workers on the top floor manage to escape? A On the fire escape B On the elevator C On ladders D On ropes Question 76: The phrase “Still others” in paragraph refers to A The eighth floor workers C the routes of escape B The ninth floor workers D the people in the freight elevator Question 77: It can be inferred from paragraph that A New York had a well-equipped fire department B fire fighters were able to rescue the women on the ninth floor C the women on the window ledge probably died D the women probably took the stairs down to the sixth floor Question 78: According to the passage, most of the workers who died in the fire _ A were university students C worked on the tenth floor B had only worked there for a short time D were immigrant women Question 79: The phrase “beginning to sweep the nation” in paragraph means _ A changing politics C investigating the government B becoming more popular D starting a controversy Question 80: Which of the following could NOT be inferred from the passage? A The Triangle Shirtwaist fire influenced public opinion B The Triangle Shirtwaist factory was rebuilt C After the fire, new regulations improved working conditions in factories D Disasters can lead to a demand for reform THE END 7|7 Mã đề 319 SỞ GIÁO DỤC – ĐÀO TẠO HÀ NỘI TRƯỜNG THPT LƯƠNG THẾ VINH ĐỀ CHÍNH THỨC (Đề thi có trang, 80 câu hỏi) ĐỀ THI THỬ ĐẠI HỌC ĐỢT – NĂM HỌC 2012 – 2013 Môn thi: Tiếng Anh (Khối D) Thời gian: 90 phút Thí sinh làm phiếu trả lời Không sử dụng từ điển tài liệu liên quan Cán coi thi không giải thích đề thi Họ tên thí sinh: …………………………………………………………… Số báo danh: ………………………………………………………………… Mã đề thi: 319 Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the blanks One rather unlikely word that has recently entered the language is “blog”, a shortened form of “web log” A blog is a diary (1) _ on the Internet by the person writing it – the blogger – who presumably (2) _ other people to read it It is ironical that modern technology is being used to (3) _ new life into such an old-fashioned form as the personal journal And now, as the technology about video camera is making easier to use, we have the video log, or “vlog” Vlogging does not require (4) _ sophisticated equipment: a digital video camera, a high-speed Internet connection and a host are all that is needed Vloggers can put anything that (5) _ their fancy onto their personal website Some vloggers have no ambitions rather than to show films they have (6) _ while on holiday in exotic places However, vlogs can also (7) _ more ambitious purposes For instance, amateur film-makers who want to make a (8) _ for themselves might publish their work on the Internet And increasingly, vlogs are being used to (9) _ political and social issues that are not newsworthy enough to get coverage by the mass media It is still too early to predict whether vlogging will ever (10) _ off in a major way or if it is just a passing fad, but its potential is only now becoming apparent 10 A released A believes A add A absolutely A grasps A shot A serve A publicity A emphasize A fly B sent B expects B inhale B largely B appeals B photographed B employ B fame B publicize B show C posted C assumes C insert C utterly C takes C snapped C function C name C distribute C take D mounted D supposes D breathe D highly D gives D captured D play D promotion D circulate D make Mark letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions 11 We are indebted to the Arabs not only for reviving Greek works but also from India A to introduce useful ideas C for useful ideas introduced B introducing useful ideas D for introducing useful ideas 12 “I’m sorry I couldn’t come to your party last night.” “ .” A That’s all right C Excuse me B You’re welcome D Don’t mention it TRƯỜNG THPT LƯƠNG THẾ VINH (2012-2013) ĐỀ THI THỬ ĐẠI HỌC ĐỢT MÔN TIẾNG ANH KHỐI D Trang Mã đề 319 13 I can’t understand how your father managed to that man He had deceived all the rest of us A see off B see through C see to D see out 14 “You missed a good chance in your career.” “Yes, I that job when Mr Johnson offered A shall take B shall have taken C should take D should have taken 15 Fast food is very popular , a diet of burgers, pizzas and fried chicken is not very healthy A Consequently B Moreover C Unfortunately D In contrast 16 Before the product is put on the market, the company must whether it complies with safety standards A calculate B ask C argue D ascertain 17 Although the new library service has been very successful, its future is certain A at any rate B by no means C by all means D by any chance 18 The Press thought the football manager would be depressed by his dismissal but he just A ran it down B called it off C turned it down D laughed it off 19 This excellent photograph has been in many leading magazines around the world A featured B displayed C portrayed D disseminated 20 - “Why did you leave the dog outside last night?” - “ .” A For a good answer C I was not going to but I think it enjoyed it B To fill in the gaps D Because our neighbor complained this morning I think you should choose color This one is too dark A another B other C the other D others The increase unemployment is a characteristic feature of a crisis A for B of C by D in 23 - “What is the new computer program’s name?” - “ .” A I use a laptop C I’ll need a copy of the program B We haven’t been introduced D Yes It was true 24 Mr Granger began his speech by thanking Mr Takase, who has been teaching him Japanese his arrival in Tokyo A since B at C to D when 25 To attract applicants who might not be interested, Phantom Chemical Laboratories is offering each new hire a relocation allowance A otherwise B except C whether D besides 26 My son has ;

Although the legends of many ancient cultures hold that divine beings created the heavens and controlled such cosmic events as eclipses, the idea that other planets harbor life similar in development and intelligence to our own did not become popular until the nineteenth century, when a few scientists considered ways in which earthlings might contact other beings One plan envisioned the building of huge canals in the desert in the shape of easily recognizable geometric symbols; when filled with gasoline and ignited, the canals would signal the presence of life on Earth to neighboring worlds Since then, many astronomers have become seriously interested in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, or SETI They assume that alien beings elsewhere in the galaxy will probably try to contact earthlings, using flashes of light to carry their messages In 1960 one astronomer performed one of the first serious searches for extraterrestrial life, called Project Ozma The astronomer turned a sensitive radio telescope in the direction of nearby stars Tau Ceti and Epsilon Eridani but found no transmissions that might be beacons from extraterrestrial civilizations Since Project Ozma, about four dozen other searches have been conducted No one has yet received an unambiguous signal from an extraterrestrial civilization, and numerous false alarms have been caused by interference from radio-wave sources here on Earth The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASA, has also been involved in SETI and sought funding from the United States Congress to build a complete receiver and to undertake a ten-year search program One half of this search plan calls for using radio telescopes in its Deep-Space Network to repeatedly scan the entire sky The other half involves using its 1,000-foot telescope to listen to nearby stars similar to the Sun that may have Earthlike planets orbiting around them Although scientists realize their survey will be far from complete, they believe the search must begin with small efforts Said one scientist: "We're new at this business, and when you walk into a dark, unfamiliar forest, you should probably listen before you shout."
