Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer

The first system of communication of animals is natural. Many kinds of animals have ways of communicating with each other. And one of the most interesting examples is that of bees. These insects communicate with each other by dancing. The most important kind of dance that they do is concerned with food. They get their food from flowers, of course, from plants and trees. When a bee has found some food, it returns to the other bees and can give them three basic kinds of information about the food: which direction it is in, whether it is nearby or a long way away, and whether it is good to eat or poisonous.

The other kind of system of communication of animals is artificial. It means animals learn it; in this case, they learn from man. Several famous experiments have been carried out with chimpanzees, trying to teach them human language.

One of these experiments was done with a chimpanzee called Sarah. Sarah was taught to understand a system of symbols which represented words. The symbols were cut out of coloured plastic, and each different shape stood for a different word. For example, a red square stood for “banana”, Sarah’s favorite fruit. Soon Sarah could not only understand words, but even sentences. She could obey orders: if her human friends put down the symbols for “apple in cup”, she would put the apple in the cup. Later, she began giving the scientists orders – she was writing her own sentences, and she got upset if the scientists did not obey her. We do not yet know whether chimpanzees will ever learn to use language to communicate as freely as human beings do, but the results so far suggest that this is at least a possibility.

41) According to the passage, bees ____________________________________.

A. learn to communicate B. are born to be able to communicate

C. are the most interesting animals D. communicate with each other by flying

42) From the passage, we can conclude that bees are _____________________.

A. so selfish as to let other bees share the bad food

B. so selfish as to look for food for themselves

C. so hardworking that they dance all the time

D. so smart that they know where the food is

43) The experiment done with Sarah is an example of ____________________.

A. animals with natural system of communication

B. animals able to communicate with humans

C. animals possible to use language as humans

D. animals with a system of communication worked out by humans

44) The results of the experiment with chimpanzees show the possibility to teach animals _____.

A. how to use language freely

B. how to give orders

C. how to obey orders

D. how to understand words and sentences

45) The phrase “concerned with” is closest in meaning to ________________.

A. interested in B. responsible for C. related to D. joined to

Section II: Read the following passage and answer the questions

In many of our cities, the downtown areas are growing. Every year, more office buildings are built downtown. These office buildings house the head quarters of many different businesses. The building and their occupants make the downtown a business center.

For a while, downtown areas were losing businesses. In the 1960s and 1970s, some companies moved from cities to new industrial parts. The new buildings were in suburban towns instead of in cities. The companies that moved thought that improvements in communications and transportation made it unimportant to be near customers and other films.

More recently, companies have started to move back into downtown areas. They realize that businesses depend on people getting together in person. Salespersons need to meet with customers to show them merchandise. Those who manage businesses want to be able to meet with people from other companies. employees sometimes need the libraries, banks, and other services offered downtown.

Some companies have also found that moving downtown makes it easier to hire people. People enjoy being in a busy downtown where they can shop during lunch hour. They like being near museums, theatres, and restaurants to which they can go after work.

Most people who work downtown have what we call ‘white-collar’ jobs. Some are manage businesses; some are lawyers; others are programmers, or designers of World Wide Web pages; and some work in services that help other people.

1.In many cities, the downtown area has become .......................................

A. empty B. a business center C. too crowded D. a factory center

2.The word in paragraph 3 that means goods to be sold is .......................................

3.When a business moves downtown, it is close to .......................................

A. many factories. B. other businesses. C. apartment buildings.

4.On the whole, this story is about .......................................

A. downtown business centers. B. salespeople and the customers. C. why people live downtown.

5.Why are jobs downtown called ‘white-collar’ jobs? Because .......................................

A. There are more laundries downtown. B. White collars look nice on everybody

C. Men who worked in offices used to wear white shirts and neckties.

Most of us take language for granted. We use it every day - in spoken, written, auditory and electronic forms - while forgetting that it’s what makes human communication possible. Indeed, our ability to communicate - person ally or professionally - is primarily based on the existence of language. In countries such as the United Kingdom, Australia and the US where English is the primary la nguage, it’s even easier to dismiss the advantage of speaking a language that the rest of the world is now being forced to learn out of necessity. Nguy ễn Đức H ưng*  * - Marie Curie High School , HP. (  : 0912.883.190 ) More than two - thirds of the world’s population still does not use English. Yet, as the need to communicate globall y increases, English is fast becoming the number 1 choice for cross - bo rder communication world - wide. While increasing the ease of communication across borders, choosing a single global language also puts enormous pressure on those who do not speak the chosen language. Encouraging one particular tongue as a prim ary or secondary mode of communication in all countries also requires a serious commitment, along with extensive reso urces and funding. This issue also raises critical questions around the importance of global intelligibility versus a c ountry’s identity, as ther e is no more sensitive symbol of individual and national identity than one’s language. 1) According to the passage, what makes human communication possible? A. human’s ability to communicate B. language C. human’s love for each other D. human’s pr ofessions 2) Why is it easier for the Australian, the Americans and the British to take English for granted? A. Because they don’t like English. B. Because they are not forced to learn English. C. Because they still live well without speaking English. D. Because they were born with English as their primary language and they do not consciously realise its importance. 3) Based on the passage above, how many people use English world - wide? A. one - third of the world’s population B. two - thirds of the world’s population C. half of the world’s population D. 1.5 million people 4) Why is English becoming the number one language? A. Because it is the simplest language in the world. B. Because it is the language of the richest country in the world – the USA. C. Because English has long been used by many people. D. Because the need for communication across borderline increases. 5) Why should we be careful about choosing one particular language for all countries? A. Because it takes a lot of time for a ll people in the world to learn a certain language. B. Because all nations want to make their mother tongues the international language. C. Because it may negatively affect an individual country’s national identity. D. Because it’s hard to correct the mist ake once you have already chosen the wrong language

II. Choose options given (marked A, B, C, and D) to complete each of the questions below.

Can you imagine a world without words? The main way that we communicate with each other is by using words. We can communicate either by speaking and listening or by writing and reading. With words, we can give and receive information, ideas, orders and instructions.

People have used writing to communicate for about 7000 years. At first, they used to draw simple pictures to represent objects, such as people and animals. Then people started to put pictures together to represent something more difficult, like a sentence. The next step in the development of writing was to use symbols, or signs. These symbols represented the sounds of words and not their meanings.

Finally, the alphabet from which modern English comes was invented in about 1500 BC. The people who invented the alphabet used a set of symbols to represent the sound “o”. This symbol is still used to the same sound today. Many languages are written with letters of an alphabet, including Vietnamese.
