three floors and forty classrooms with 1,700 students. My classroom is on the second floor. I‟m
in grade 7, class 7A. Our class starts at 7.00 and finishes at 11.30. At school we learn many
things, but I like Literature and English best. I also like Music, Sports and Art. We often have
recess at 9.20. We usually drink, eat and talk at recess. We sometimes play games like blind

B. Read the passage and choose the best answer (A, B, or C) to the following questions (5
pts)
What do you often do after school? In my school, there are a lot of clubs which students can
take part in after school hours.
The club that has the biggest number of members is the swimming club called “Blue Dolphins”.
I myself love swimming so I am a member of this club. I go to the swimming pool twice a day
and swim for about an hour. I‟m really interested in swimming breaststroke because it helps me
move as fast as I can. I‟m also fond of backstroke. I swim backstroke when I want to relax,
breathe and let my body float freely. It‟s very relaxing.
The second club I would like to mention is the charity club. Its name is “Golden Heart”.
Members of the club often do community service. This month, they are conducting a clean-up
campaign to protect the environment around the school. They collect trash, clean the toilet area,
and grow plants. I am not a Golden Heart‟s member, but I participate in their activities
whenever I can.
If you can sing, dance or play musical instruments, the musical club “Heartstrings” is definitely
for you. The president of the club is Mike, my best friend. He is not only good-looking but also
sings beautifully and plays the guitar very well.
In conclusion, we should do as many activities as possible in our free time to have good health
and a fresh mind to prepare for lessons in class. Spending all our time studying is not a good
idea.

Part II. Read the passage and answer the following questions. (1 pt)
How does a rocket get to outer space?
A rocket uses fuel to make power for the engine. The fuel is set on fire inside the rocket. As the fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure. These gases are blasted out of the rocket engines.
These gases all go out the bottom of the rocket engine where it is open. They come out so fast and with so much power that the rocket is pushed up. It is pushed up so hard that the rocket overcomes the force of gravity, which tries to keep everything on the ground. The force that pushes up against the front of the rocket is called thrust.
Unlike an airplane, a rocket does not use wings to help it fly. It just uses the power and force created by the burning fuel to make enough thrust.
1. Where is the fuel set on fire?
2. How do the gases come out to push up the rocket?
3. What is the force that pushes up against the front of the rocket called?
4. What does a rocket use to help it fly?
