Indeed, playing some of the more complicated games may help people of all ages to improve certain skills. Researchers claim that this is because the games………35……the brain work harder in certain ways, like……..36……sounds and movements quickly and identifying what they are. The fact that people play the games repeatedly……..37…….. that they get a lot of practice in these skills which are therefore likely to become highly developed. Social skills may benefit, too. Researchers in Chicago think that fans of first person shooter games……38…… “Counterstrike” are better than nonplayers when it comes to building trust and cooperation, and that this……..39……them to make good friendships and become strong members of their communities.

The first is the broad area of communication, which includes imparting information by use of language, communicating with a group or an individual and specialized communication through performance. A person conveys thoughts and ideas through choice of words, by a tone of voice that is pleasant or unpleasant, gentle or harsh, by the rhythm that is inherent within the language itself, and by speech rhythms that are flowing and regular or uneven and hesitant, and finally, by the pitch and melody of the utterance. When speaking before a group, a persons tone may indicate uncertainty or fright, confidence or calm. At interpersonal levels, the tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and above the words chosen, or may belie them. Here the participant’s tone can consciously or unconsciously reflect intuitive sympathy or antipathy, lack of concern or interest, fatigue, anxiety, enthusiasm or excitement, all of which are .usually discernible by the acute listener. Public performance is a manner of communication that is highly specialized with its own techniques for obtaining effects by voice and or gesture. The motivation derived from the text, and in the case of singing, the music, in combination with the performers skills, personality, and ability to create empathy will determine the success of artistic, political, or pedagogic communication. Second, the voice gives psychological clues to a persons selfimage, perception of others, and emotional health. Selfimage can be indicated by a tone of voice that is confident, pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing, or exuberant, to name only a few personality traits. Also the sound may give a clue to the facade or mask of that person, for example, a shy person hiding behind an overconfident front. How a speaker perceives the listeners receptiveness, interest, or sympathy in any given conversation can drastically alter the tone of presentation, by encouraging or discouraging the speaker. Emotional health is evidenced in the voice by free and melodic sounds of the happy, by constricted and harsh sound of the angry, and by dull and lethargic qualities of the depressed. Question 41.

As a consequence, they are perhaps the best group of insects for examining patterns of terrestrial biotic diversity and distribution. Butterflies also have a favorable image with the general public. Hence, they are an excellent group for communicating information on science and conservation issues such as diversity. Perhaps the aspect of butterfly diversity that has received the most attention over the past century is the striking difference in species richness between tropical and temperate regions. For example, in 1875 one biologist pointed out the diversity of butterflies in the Amazon when he mentioned that about 700 species were found within an hours walk, whereas the total number found on the British islands did not exceed 66, and the whole of Europe supported only 321. This early comparison of tropical and temperate butterfly richness has been well confirmed. A general theory of diversity would have to predict not only this difference between temperate and tropical zones, but also patterns within each region, and how these patterns vary among different animal and plant groups. However, for butterflies, variation of species richness within temperate or tropical regions, rather man between them, is poorly understood. Indeed, comparisons of numbers of species among the Amazon basin, tropical Asia, and Africa are still mostly personal communication citations, even for vertebrates, In other words, unlike comparison between temperate and tropical areas, these patterns are still in the documentation phase. In documenting geographical variation in butterfly diversity, some arbitrary, practical decisions are made. Diversity, number of species, and species richness are used synonymously; little is known about the evenness of butterfly distribution. The New World butterflies make up the preponderance of examples because they are the most familiar species. It is hoped that by focusing on them, the errors generated by imperfect and incomplete taxonomy will be minimized. Question 56: The word consequence in line 2 is closest in meaning to…………….

A The function of the voice in performance B Communication styles C The connection between voice and personality D The production of speech Question 42 What does the author mean by staring that, "At interpersonal levels, tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and above the words chosen" in lines 8- 9? A Feelings are expressed with different words than ideas are B The tone of voice can carry information beyond the meaning of words C A high tone of voice reflects an emotional communication D Feelings are more difficult to express than ideas Question 43 The word "Here" in line refers to…………… A interpersonal interactions B the tone C ideas and feelings D words chosen Question 44 The word "derived" in line 13 is closest in meaning to……… A discussed B prepared C registered D obtained Question 45 Why does the author mention "artistic, political, or pedagogic communication" in line 14-15? A As examples of public performance B As examples of basic styles of communication C To contrast them to singing D To introduce the idea of self-image Question 46 According to the passage, an exuberant tone of voice may be an indication of a person's……… A general physical health B personality C ability to communicate D vocal quality Question 47 According to the passage, an overconfident front may hide………… A hostility B shyness C friendliness D strength Question 48 The word "drastically" in line 21 is closest in meaning to…………… A frequently B exactly C severely D easily Question 49 The word "evidenced" in line 22 is closest in meaning to…………… A questioned B repeated C indicated D exaggerated Question 50 According to the passage, what does a constricted and harsh voice indicate?

A Their physical characteristics B Their adaptation to different habitats C Their names D Their variety Question 63: The author mentions tropical Asia in lines 16-17 as an example of a location where…… A butterfly behavior varies with climate B a general theory of butterfly diversity has not yet been firmly established C butterflies are affected by human populations D documenting plant species is more difficult than documenting butterfly species Question 64: The word "generated" in line 24 is closest in meaning to……… A requested B caused C assisted D estimated Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to show the underlined part that needs correction Question 65: All of the mammals, dolphins are undoubtedly among the friendly to human A B C D Question 66: Many of the important products obtained from trees, one of the most important is A B C wood pulp, which is used in paper-making D Question 67: All nations may have to make fundamental changes in their economic, political, and A B the technological institutions if they are to preserve environment C D Question 68: Chicago's Sears Tower, now the tallest building in the world, rises 1,522 feet from the A B C ground to the top of it antenna D Question 69: It was suggested that Pedro studies the material more thoroughly before attempting A B C to pass the exam D Question 70: In just three months H.G Wells wrote the famous classic The Time Machine for what A B C he won a Newberry Caldecot award D Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that is closest in meaning to each of the following questions Question 71: If it hadn’t been for his carelessness, we would have finished the work A He was careless because he hadn’t finished the work B If her were careful, we would finish the work C If he had been more careful, we would have completed the work D Because he wasn’t careless, we didn’t finish the work Question 72: The hostess made every effort to see that her guests got the food and drinks they wanted A The hostess was reluctant to offer her guests food and drinks B The hostess tried hard to please her guests C The guests refused the food and drinks prepared by the hostess D Neither the guests nor the hostess had food or drinks Question 73: The meeting was put off because of pressure of time A The meeting started earlier because people wanted to leave early B The meeting was planned to start late because of time pressure C The meeting lasted much longer than usual D There was not enough time to hold the meeting Question 74: Twice as many men as women are insurance agents A More men than women have insurance B Male insurance agents outnumber female agents C Women are twice as likely as men to have sold insurance D Insurance is twice as difficult to sell to women as to men Question 75: Most people get fewer colds in the summer than in the winter A A person is more likely to get a cold in the winter than in the summer B More people have summer colds than winter colds C People get colder in the summer than in the winter D The winter is much colder than the summer Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that expresses the best meaning formed by the given words Question 76: No/ doubt/ Alison/ promote A It’s no doubt Alison will be promoting B There’s no doubt that Alison will be promoted C There’s no doubt Alison will promote D It’s no doubt that Alison is promoted Question 77: your organization/ possible/ conference/ place A Your organization made it possible to take place this conference B Your organization made possible for this conference to take place C Your organization made it possible this conference to take place D Your organization made it possible for this conference to take place Question 78: when/ you/ make/ mind/ university/ attend?

and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions Pandemic (dịch bệnh) Diseases are a natural part of life on Earth If there were no diseases, the population would grow too quickly, and there would not be enough food or other resources So in a way, diseases are nature's way of keeping the Earth in balance But sometimes they spread very quickly and kill large numbers of people For example, in 1918, an outbreak of the flu spread across the world, killing over 25 million people in only six months Such terrible outbreaks of a disease are called pandemics Pandemics happen when a disease changes in a way that our bodies are not prepared to fight In 1918, a new type of flu virus appeared Our bodies had no way to fight this new flu virus, and so it spread very quickly and killed large numbers of people While there have been many different pandemic diseases throughout history, all of them have a few things in common First, all pandemic diseases spread from one person to another very easily Second, while they may kill many people, they generally not kill people very quickly A good example of this would be the Marburg virus The Marburg virus is an extremely infectious disease In addition, it is deadly About 70-80% of all the people who get the Marburg virus die from the disease However, the Marburg virus has not become a pandemic because most people die within three days of getting the disease This means that the virus does not have enough time to spread to a large number of people The flu virus of 1918, on the other hand, generally took about a week to ten days to kill its victims, so it had more time to spread While we may never be able to completely stop pandemics, we can make them less common Doctors carefully monitor new diseases that they fear could become pandemics For example, in 2002 and 2003, doctors carefully watched SARS Their health warnings may have prevented SARS from becoming a pandemic 45 This passage is mainly about A how to prevent pandemic diseases B pandemic diseases C pandemic diseases throughout history D why pandemics happen 46 According to paragraph 1, how are diseases a natural part of life on Earth? A They prevent pandemics B They help control the population C They help the world grow quickly D They kill too many people 47 Based on the information in the passage the term pandemics can best be explained as _ A diseases with no cure B diseases that spread quickly and kill large numbers of people C a deadly kind of flu D new diseases like SARS or the Marburg virus 48 According to the passage, what causes pandemics? A Changes in a disease that the body cannot fight B Careless doctors who not watch the spread of diseases C Population growth that the world cannot support D The failure to make new medicines 49 According to the passage, all of the following are true of the 1918 flu pandemic EXCEPT that A it involved a new kind of flu virus B it killed over 25 million people C it was the last pandemic in history D it took a little over a week to kill its victims 50 The word it in the passage refers to A disease B flu virus C pandemics D bodies 51 Which of the following is mentioned as a common feature of all pandemic diseases? A They spread from people to people very slowly B They may kill many people very quickly C They not kill people very quickly D They kill all the victims 52 According to paragraph 3, why hasn't Marburg virus become a pandemic? A It is not a deadly disease B It does not spread from person to person easily C Doctors have prevented it from becoming a pandemic D It kills people too quickly 53 The word monitor in the passage is closest in meaning to A fight B prevent C watch D avoid 54 The author mentions SARS in order to A give an example of a highly dangerous disease B suggest that SARS will never become a pandemic C give an example of the successful prevention of a pandemic D suggest that there may be a new pandemic soon 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 What I love about my job is the variety I get enquiries (việc điều tra) from people all over the world asking me how they should go about setting up their own website I’ve been asked about so many subjects - anything from someone wanting to teach people how to throw boomerangs to another people selling paper flowers which they make at home in their spare time Obviously with all the thousands of websites available at the click of a button, you want to create an impression with your website so that it becomes a must-see destination Not everyone is prepared, however, for the way in which a website can become so popular that it actually has to be closed down When people first set up their websites they probably pay their web advertiser a monthly fee based on the number of hits (visitors) or page impressions their site receives If they can pay their monthly fee without it costing them too much, that is the best that most people hope for One guy, Pete Bennett, whom I helped, wanted to set up a one-stop shop to provide decent images of the world’s flags He’d been fascinated by flags since his boyhood and had no idea that thousands of other people share his passion Anyway, in one month his web page had over 1.5 million hits As a result his internet provider trebled (gấp 3) the fee that he was being charged He wasn’t a rich person and he couldn’t afford to spend that amount of money on a hobby without any benefit to him, so he decided to carry advertising on his site He found a company which specializes in smaller sites and adverts were added to the pages on his website So, although he doesn’t make a huge profit, at least his hobby provides him with a small income If you have specialist skills or expertise, it can pay you to sell the products that people want I helped one woman design a page to advertise the fact that she tells fortunes, based on the information that her clients supply her with If you want her to tell your fortune, you fill in a questionnaire online your age, date of birth, hobbies, interests and so on and for a small fee she emails you back your fortune You can print it out and it looks really good, decorated with moons and stars, your zodiac (hoàng đạo) sign and your birthstone I tried it myself and although I’m not sure I believe it, my future according to her is positive and exciting I also found out that for someone born in August, like me, the birthstone is a peridot (đá/ngọc peridot), a pale green stone which I’d never even heard of! I also get a fair number of complaints from people e-mailing me to say that they can’t access the website When they click on the site a message appears on their screen saying ‘An error has occurred in the script (bản chính) on this page’ This usually happens when someone has tried to achieve fancy effects on their website by using programming techniques based on a scripting language This means that unless they really know what they are doing, whoever designed the site has probably made a mistake in their programming This is where people like me come in Most computer instruction guides make things appear quite straightforward, but unless you’re very skilled, you’re likely to run into problems It’s generally worth getting a professional to help you set up your site in the first place otherwise people like me would be out of work And let’s face it, this is big business 55 What does Paul Howells enjoy most about his job? A Dealing with different people B His worldwide contacts C Teaching design skills D The range of topics 56 What does Paul mean by ‘a must-see destination’ in paragraph 2?

A He knew lots of people shared his interest B He hoped to make a lot of money C A web advertiser wanted to sell flags D He’d been interested in flags for years 58 What word can best replace the word “hits” in paragraph 3? A bad effects B beats C attacks D visits 59 Why did Pete Bennett accept advertising on his website? A To attract more hits B To repay the huge fee C To add more interest D To help him earn some money 60 Who are the “clients” in paragraph referred to?

A It is usually fairly easy to B You must use a good instruction guide C It can be quite complicated D You should rely on your own skills 63 What word can best replace the word “script” in paragraph 5?
