C. READING. Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each question. (2.5p)

Basic to any understanding of Canada in the 20 years after the Second World War is the country's impressive population growth. For every three Canadians in 1945, there were over five in 1966. In September 1966 Canada's population passed the 20 million mark. Most of this surging growth came from natural increase. The depression of the 1930's and the war had held back marriages, and the catching-up process began after 1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the1950's, producing a population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956. This rate of increase had been exceeded only once before in Canada's history, in the decade before 1911 when the prairies were being settled. Undoubtedly, the good economic conditions of the 1950's supported a growth in the population, but the expansion also derived from a trend toward earlier marriages and an increase in the average size of families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood at 28 per thousand, one of the highest in the world.

After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued falling until in 1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline reflected the low level of births during the depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society. Young people were staying at school longer; more women were working; young married couples were buying automobiles or houses before starting families; rising living standards were cutting down the size of families. It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution.

Although the growth in Canada's population had slowed down by 1966 (the increase in the first half of the 1960's was only nine percent), another large population wave was coming over the horizon. It would be composed of the children who were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to 1957.

Câu 31: The author suggests that in Canada during the1950's _______.

A. economic conditions were poor                         B. fewer people married

C. the urban population decreased rapidly             D. the birth rate was very high

Câu 32: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. directive                     B. tendency                     C. growth                        D. aim

Câu 34: It can be inferred from the passage that before the Industrial Revolution _______.

A. population statistics were unreliable                 B. families were larger

C. the population grew steadily                              D. economic conditions were bad

Câu 35: According to the passage, when did Canada's baby boom begin?

A. In the decade after 1911                                     B. During the depression of the 1930's

C. In 1966                                                                D. After 1945

C. ERROR CORRECTION. The following passage contains 10 errors. Find and correct them:(2.5p)

When man first learned how to make a fire, he began to use fuel for the first time. The first fuel he used was probably wooden. As time passed, man eventually discovered that substances such as coal and oil will burn. Coal was not used very wide as a source of energy until the nineteenth century. With the coming of the industrial revolution, it was soon realized that production would double if coal was using instead of wood. Nowadays, much of the huge factories and electricity generating stations would be impossible to function if there was no coal. In the last twenty or thirty years, however, the use of coal has declined. As a result, there  were changes in the coal if oil and gas are not so readily available. There is more than coal enough in the world for man's needs for the next two hundred years if our use of coal will not increase. Unfortunately, however, about half of the world's coal may never been used. Mining much of it would be very expensive even if it was possible to use new equipment.

SOME OF THE PROBLEMS  FACING LEARNERS OF ENGLISH.

Today I’d like to talk about some of the problems that students face when follow a course of study through  the medium of English- if English is not their mother’s tongue.

The problems can be divided into three board categories: psychological, cultural or  linguistic. The first two categories main affect those who come to study in Britain.  I’ll comment only brief on these two categories and then spend most of the time  to look at linguistic difficulties which apply  to everyone. Some of the common psychological problem really involve fear  of the unknown: in example, whether one's academic studies will be too difficult. Looking at the cultural problem, we can see that some of them are of a  very practical nature,  e.g arranging satisfactory accommodations. Others are  much easier to define.

Section C: READING

I. Read the text and choose the best option to answer the question.

The prison in the usa

In the United States today there are more than half a million criminals serving time in prison. Most prisoners are male high-school dropouts between the ages of 18 and 19. Even more shocking in the fact that the number and rate of imprisonment has more than doubled over the past twenty years, and the recidivism - that is, the rate for rearest - is more than 60 percent.

Although the stated goal of most prison systems, on both federal and state levels, is to rehabiliatate the inmates and reintagrate them into society, the systems themselves do not support such a result. Prisons are usually geographically or psychologically isolated and terribly overcrowded. Even in the more enlightened prisons, only one-third of the inmates have vocational training opportunities or work release options.

If prisons are indeed to achieve the goal of rehabilitating offenders, then the prisons themselves will have to change. First, they will have to be smaller, housing no more than five hundred prisoners. Second, they will have to be built in or near population centers with community resources available for gradual reintegration into society. Finally, prison programs must be restructured to include work release and vocational and academic training that promises carry over into the inmate’s life after release. Models for such collaborative efforts between the criminal justice system and the community already exist in several hundred half-way houses throughout the country. 

1. What is the author’s main point?

A. Prisons must be restructured if they are to accomplish the goal of rehabilitation.

B. Models for community collaboration have been successful.

C. Most of the criminals serving time in prison are high-school dropouts.

D. The criminal justice system must establish a better goal.

2. According to the author, how many prisoners are offered training or work release?

A. None                      B. 33.33 percent                      C. 50 percent        D. 60 percent

3. The author mentions all the following as necessary to prison reform EXCEPT

A. newer buildings                              C. vocational training

B. smaller institutions             D.collaboration with the community

4. The word “recidivism” in line 4 refers to

A. all people who are imprisoned                                          

B. people who return to prison after release  

C. people who drop out of high school          

D. people who have been in prison for a long time

5. The paragraph following this passage most probably discusses

A. the goals of most state and federal prisons                       

B. the cost of prison reform

C. examples of models for community collaboration

D. problems with the current criminal justice system

Read the article about a school recycling project. And decide the statements are true (T) or false (F). Our Recycling Project Hello everyone, I am Jackson. Last Thursday, my class learned about what we can do with things we normally throw away, like plastic bottles. Afterwards, our teacher asked us to make something useful out of trash and show the class on Monday. I made toys out of toilet paper rolls. I painted the paper rolls and added eyes, hair, and hats. My favorite toy is a silly monster with four eyes. I gave one (a cute witch) to my little sister. My friend, Riley, reused cans and plastic cups to make plant pots. She painted and drew eyes for them to make them look like rabbits and cats. I thought recycling would be boring but it is not. This project was really fun and useful. I did not know that we can make so many things from trash.

Last Thursday, my class learned about what we can do with things we normally throw away, like plastic bottles. Afterwards, our teacher asked us to make something useful out of trash and show the class on Monday. I made toys out of toilet paper rolls. I painted the paper rolls and added eyes, hair, and hats. My favorite toy is a silly monster with four eyes. I gave one (a cute witch) to my little sister. My friend, Riley, reused cans and plastic cups to make plant pots. She painted and drew eyes for them to make them look like rabbits and cats. I thought recycling would be boring but it is not. This project was really fun and useful. I did not know that we can make so many things from trash.
