The International Committee of the Red Cross (also called “ICRC” for short) is an organization that helps people around the world. The roots of the ICRC go back to 1859, when a Swiss businessman named Henry Dunant watched a battle while traveling in Italy. After the battle ended, Mr. Dunant was shocked to see the wounded and dying soldiers left on the battlefield. Almost no one could help the dying soldiers. The suffering was terrible and tragic. Mr. Dunant tried to organize some assistance. He asked the local people to care for the wounded and dying soldiers.

After he returned home to Switzerland, Mr. Dunant wrote to the leaders of Europe. He told them what he had seen in Italy. He urged them to create an organization that could help the wounded in times of war. Mr. Dunant also formed a committee of friends, doctors, and lawyers. They organized a conference in October, 1863. Governments from around Europe sent their representatives to the conference. By the end of it, they all agreed to help provide for better care to those wounded in wars. People who would help the wounded would also be protected. They would wear a white armband with a red cross to clearly show that they were neutral.

In 1864, Mr. Dunant and his committee held another conference. This time, representatives of governments outside of Europe came too. They signed an agreement that listed 10 rules (called “articles”).

This guaranteed that all wounded soldiers would be treated with respect and dignity, even in times of war.

This list of articles later became known as The Geneva Convention. Eventually, Mr. Dunant’s organization became known as The International Committee of the Red Cross. It still exists today and it has helped millions of people around the world.

Question 39: What could be the best title for the passage?

Question 41: According to the article, why was Henry Dunant shocked after watching a battle?

A. because the soldiers tried to fight the local people.

B. because he thought Italy was a peaceful place.

C. because the soldiers did not want to fight.

D. because no one would help the wounded soldiers.

Question 42: The word 'it' in paragraph 2 refers to_______________.

A. a representative B. Europe C. a conference D. a government

Trang 4/4 Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50.

In the history of technology, computers and calculators were innovative developments. They are essentially different from all other machines because they have a memory. This memory stores instructions and information. In a calculator, the instructions are the various functions of arithmetic, which are permanently remembered by the machine and cannot be altered or added to. The information consists of the numbers keyed in.

An electronic pocket calculator can perform almost instant arithmetic. A calculator requires an input unit to feed in numbers, a processing unit to make the calculation, a memory unit, and an output unit to display the result. The calculator is powered by a small battery or by a panel of solar cells. Inside is a microchip that contains the memory and processing units and also controls the input unit, which is the keyboard, and the output unit, which is the display.

The input unit has keys for numbers and operations. Beneath the keys is a printed circuit board containing a set of contacts for each key. Pressing a key closes the contacts and sends a signal along a pair of lines in the circuit board to the processing unit, in which the binary code for that key is stored in the memory. The processing unit also sends the code to the display. Each key is connected by a different pair of lines to the processing unit, which repeatedly checks the lines to find out when a pair is linked by a key.

The memory unit stores the arithmetic instructions for the processing unit and holds the temporary results that occur during calculation. Storage cells in the memory unit hold the binary codes for the keys that have been pressed. The number codes, together with the operation code for the plus key, are held in temporary cells until the processing unit requires them.

When the equals key is pressed, it sends a signal to the processing unit. This takes the operation code - for example, addition- and the two numbers being held in the memory unit and performs the operation on the two numbers. A full adder does the addition, and the result goes to the decoder in the calculator’s microchip. This code is then sent to the liquid crystal display unit, which shows the result, or output, of the calculation.

Question 44: What can be inferred about machines that are not calculators or computers?

A. They cannot store information in a memory. B. They are less expensive than computers.

C. They have simple memory and processing units. D. They are older than computers.

Question 45: The word "innovative" in paragraph 1 could best replaced by_______.

A. recent B. important C. revolutionary D. complicated Question 46: In what part of the calculator are the processing and memory units?

A. The battery B. The solar cells C. The output unit D. The microchip Question 47: According to the passage, one function of the memory unit is_______.

A. to control the keyboard B. to store temporary results during calculation C. to send codes to the display unit D. to alter basic arithmetic instructions

Question 48: The word "This" in paragraph 5 refers to_______.

A. the plus key B. the processing unit C. the memory unit D. the equals key Question 49: Which of the following could NOT be said about calculators?

A. Pressing a key activates a calculator.

B. The calculator’s "thinking" takes place in the processing and memory units.

C. Calculators require a lot of instructions to operate quickly.

D. Calculators and computers are similar.

Question 50: What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To discuss innovative developments in technology

B. To compare computers and calculators with other machines C. To summarize the history of technology

D. To explain how a calculator works
