C. READING

Read the passage, then answer the questions below (2.5pts)

Are you looking for a cheap, clean, effective source of power that doesn't cause pollution or waste natural resources? Look no further than solar energy from the Sun.

At present, most of our electricity comes from the use of coal and gas, oid or nuclear power. This power could be provided by the Sun. One percent of the solar energy that reaches the Earth is enough to provide power for the total population.

Many countries are already using solar energy. Solar panels are placed on the roofs of a house and the Sun's energy is used to heat water. The energy can be stored for a number of days, so on cloudy days you can use solar energy, too.

Sweden has an advanced solar energy program. There, all buildings will be heated by solar energy and cars will use solar power instead of gas by the year 2015.

Questions:

1. Is solar energy an efficient source of power?

2. Where are the solar panels placed?

3. How long can the solar energy be stored?

(6)

4. When will cars use solar power instead of gas in Sweden?

5. Is the solar energy used in Vietnam now?

Hướng dẫn dịch

Thomas A. Edison sinh ra ở Milan, Ohio, vào ngày 11 tháng 2 năm 1847. Gia đình ông chuyển đến Port Huron, Michigan, khi ông được bảy tuổi. Điều đáng ngạc nhiên là ông chỉ đi học được hai tháng. Mẹ ông, một cựu giáo viên, đã dạy ông một số điều, nhưng Thomas chủ yếu là tự học. Sự tò mò bẩm sinh đã khiến ông bắt đầu thử nghiệm khi còn nhỏ.

Thomas Alve Edison đã thắp sáng thế giới với phát minh ra đèn điện. Mặc dù đèn điện có vẻ là hữu ích nhất, nhưng nó không phải là phát minh duy nhất của ông.

Ông cũng phát minh ra máy ghi âm, máy ảnh chuyển động và hơn 1.200 thứ khác.

Khoảng hai tuần một lần, ông ấy tạo ra một cái gì đó mới.

Ông ấy đã làm việc 16 trên 24 giờ. Đôi khi ông làm việc căng thẳng đến mức vợ ông phải nhắc nhở ông ăn ngủ.

Thomas Edison qua đời ở tuổi 84 vào ngày 18 tháng 10 năm 1931, tại khu đất của ông ở West Orange, New Jersey. Ông đã để lại rất nhiều phát minh giúp cải thiện chất lượng cuộc sống trên toàn thế giới.

Japanese people are famous for their well-balanced and healthy diet. That is the main reason for their longevity.

A. Typically, a Japanese meal consists of rice, miso soup, the main dish(es) and pickles. Rice is the staple and plays a central part in people's eating habits.

Japanese rice is sticky and nutritious, so when combined with the main dishes and the soup, they make a complete meal. The portions of each dish are individually served.

B.The most important characteristic of their eating habits is they like raw food and do not use sauces with a strong favour. Two typical examples are sashimi and sushi. The Japanese make sashimi simply by cutting fresh fish. Then they serve it with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce and spicy Japanese horseradish

(wasabi). Sushi is similar. The cooked, vinegared rice can be combined with raw fish, prawn, avocado, cucumber or egg. Sushi is usually served with soy sauce and pickled ginger.

C. It is said that the Japanese eat with their eyes. Therefore, the arrangement of dishes is another significant feature of their eating habits. If you join a Japanese meal, you may be excited to see how the colourful dishes are arranged according to a traditional pattern. In addition, there are plates and bowls of different sizes and designs. They are carefully presented to match the food they carry.

Read the passage, and then choose the best answer (A, B or C) for each question Computing is now at the same stage as printing was when the first printing presses were used. Before printing presses were invented, only rich people like kings and dukes could afford to buy books. Often these people were unable to read and hadn't enough time to learn. In any case, the books were so big that it was difficult for anyone to relax with a book as we do today. They wanted books because they were expensive and there was something magical about them. Only a few people were able to write, and it took an extremely long time

(37)

to write a book. Monks and other people who could write said ordinary people could not learn to read.

The position with computers in very similar today. A few years ago, computers were very large and expensive. Business managers and rich people ordered them but they didn’t know how to use them.

A World of Sausage

(60)

All over the world, all different cultures created interesting processed meat products, and one of the most popular is undoubtedly sausage.

To begin with, sausage making may be considered disgusting as it deals with using various animal parts. Since meat is ground up, certain cuts and parts of an animal that wouldn't be served in their original forms can be used. Literally, this means animal parts such as noses, ears, and other less appetizing areas of an animal's body.

Very often, the ground up meat and flesh is mixed with a certain percentage of fat, along with spices and other fillers. After being mixed well, this meat mixture is then stuffed into the cleaned intestines of the animal, which are then sealed at both ends.

The result is sausage.

The meats used in sausages come from a variety of animals, although beef and pork are by far the favourites. In some cultures, sausage made from the meat of horses is considered a delicacy. When sausages are cooked, the cooking process sometimes adds to the flavour. While boiling is probably the simplest method, smoking sausages will add a lot of smoky flavour.

Next time you bite into a sausage, it is probably best not to think too much about how it became the tasty thing you are eating. After all, you don't want to ruin a good snack.

26. Where is the mixture of meat placed?

A. Inside a plastic package.

B. Inside a cleaned intestine.

C. Inside a refrigerator.

D. Inside a metal container.

27. What won't be served in their original forms?

A. Certain cuts and parts of animals.

B. Spices and fillers.

C. Sausages of all types.

D. Intestines of an animal.

28. What are by far the favourite meats for making sausages?

A. Chicken.

B. Horse meat.

(61)

C. Cuts of lamb.

D. Beef and pork.

29. What is the simplest method of cooking sausages?

A. Grilling.

B. Smoking.

C. Boiling.

D. Baking.

30. What advice is given in the passage?

A. Be careful when making sausages.

B. Don't think too much about what you are eating when eating sausages.

C. Try not to use too much fat in the meat mixture when making sausages.

D. Make sure intestines are cleaned before packing with meat.
