The Hindu culture celebrates marriage as a pure and pristine rite enabling two individuals start their journey of life together. It puts emphasis on the values of happiness, harmony and growth and could be traced back from the Vedic times.
Months before the wedding ceremony, an engagement is held which is called "mangni". The couple is blessed here with gifts, jewelry and clothes. Another important ritual is the "mehendi" which is a paste made from the leaves of henna plant. It is the traditional art of adorning the hands and the feet of the bride with mehendi and the name of the groom is also hidden in the design.
On the day of marriage, the couple exchanges garlands as a gesture of acceptance of one another and a pledge to respect one another as partners which is known as "jaimala". This is followed by "kanyadaan", where the father of the bride places her hand in the groom's hand requesting him to accept her as an equal partner.
Another ritual is the "havan" in which the couple invokes Agni, the god of Fire, to witness their
commitment to each other. Crushed sandalwood, herbs, sugar rice and oil are offered to the ceremonial fire. The "gath bandhan" takes place where scarves of the bride and groom are tied together symbolizing their eternal bond. This signifies their pledge before God to love each other and remain loyal. The couple then takes four "mangal pheras" or walk around the ceremonial fire, representing four goals in life: "Dharma", religious and moral duties; "Artha", prosperity; "Kama" earthly pleasures; "Moksha", spiritual salvation.
The couple also takes seven steps together to begin their journey, called the "saptapardi". Then the ritual of "sindoor" takes place where the groom applies a small dot of vermilion, a red powder to the bride's forehead and welcomes her as his partner for life. This signifies the completion of the marriage. The parents of the bride and the groom then give their blessings, "ashirwad" to the newlywed couple as they touch the feet of their parents.

Câu 34: What does the word “magni” stand for?

B. It is entirely a spiritual traditional ritual allowing two individuals to live together.
C. It is a belief in the growth of a family newly formed by two individuals.
D. It is just a living-together announcement of two individuals.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
Cell phones are an integrated part of our society at this point, and their main use is communication.
They keep students in touch with the rest of the world by giving them the power to interact with
it
. In my
day, if you forgot your lunch you were
at the mercy of
the office calling home for you. Now, students have
the ability to solve their own problems and handle certain "emergencies" on their own.
Cell phones also allow students the ability when the time is right, to keep in touch with students at
other schools or friends that don't go to school. While not an educational benefit directly, better relationships
can lead to higher self-esteem and reduce isolation,
which
is good for everybody. In the same way, camera
phones allow students to capture the kinds of memories that help build a solid school culture, and, in some
cases, can act as documentation of misbehavior in the same way that store cameras provide evidence and
deter bad behavior.
Academically, the cell phone can act as to record video of a procedure of explanation that may need
to be reviewed later. It could be used to record audio of a lecture, as well, for later review. And just imagine
if class could be easily "
taped
" for students who are absent? What if they could even be streamed and seen
from home instantly?
The iPod is a little trickier, because its function varies greatly by model.
At its heart
, it is a media
player, and I know for a fact that many students work better while listening to music. For this reason, they
can have a good effect by keeping students from getting too distracted while working (
ironic
, because we
mostly think of them AS distractions!). If it is a WIFI compatible model, and wireless internet is available,
the iPod can be a great tool for looking up information or digging into things more deeply. Depending on the
model, it may be able to act as a camera and video recorder as well (with the same benefits as the cell
phone).
Devices like the Kindle could, conceivably, make learning a lot easier. Imagine carrying all your
textbooks in the palm of your hand, rather than strapped to your back! Though expensive, compared to
buying new textbooks, the Kindle is a bargain. Many of the books used in high school English classes are
actually FREE on the Kindle.
11. The passage mainly discusses ____.
A. how some electronic devices are used in education
B. how to use electronic devices in the classroom

it
' in the passage refers to ____.
A. the power
B. the world
C. the rest of the world
D. the main use
13. The phrase "
at the mercy of
" mostly means ____.
A. completely dependent on
B. at request of
C. thankful to
D. under orders
14. According to the passage, cell phones do NOT ____.
A. help students keep in touch with their friends
B. allow students to capture of memories
C. help students record audio of a lecture
D. enable students to write their assignment
15. The word "
which
" in the passage refers to ____.
A. building better relationships
B. achieving higher self-esteem
C. that relationships lead to higher self-esteem
D. having higher-esteem and lower isolation
16. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word "
taped
"?
A. recorded
B. reviewed
C. streamed
D. seen
17. The phrase "
At its heart
" mostly refers to ____.
A. the main function
B. the core part
C. the central unit
D. the best usage

A. lucky
B. special
C. funny
D. particular

A. The iPod can be used to make phone calls.

A. The Kindle is more economical than new textbooks.

Some people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence of sport—the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. However, the individual representing his/her country cannot afford to think about enjoying him/herself; he has to think only about winning.

Some people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence of sport—the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. However, the individual representing his/her country cannot afford to think about enjoying him/herself; he has to think only about winning. He/She is responsible for an entire nation’s hope, dreams and reputation.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. It is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention “Argentina” to someone and chances are that he/she’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup “puts Argentina on the map.”
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Years ago thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money travelling to Argentina, where the finals were played.
So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it’s nice to know that you won, and that in one way at least your country is best.
53. According to the passage, the United States .
(A) has begun to give much attention to football
(B) is fond of playing football
(C) has won the football World Cup
(D) is getting sick of football
54. In the second paragraph, the word “summit” means the
(A) highest point
(B) mountain top
(C) award
(D) summary
55. According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will .
(A) fail to succeed
(B) be successful
(C) lose enjoyment
(D) be irrational
56. What is the author’s attitude towards international games?
(A) Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.
(B) Nations that win the football World Cup are regarded as best in all aspects.
(C) Nations that win in international games prove best on the sports field at least.
(D) Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.
