 Bài 1

A farmer's wife spent most of her time wishing for thongs she did not have. She often said,"I wish I was rich" or " I wish I were beautiful" or " I wish I had a handsome husband".
 There fore, one day, some fairies decided to permit her to have three wished . The farmer and his wife talked a long time over what she should wishes for. But the farmer and his wife suddenly became a little angry, and from force of habit she said, " I wish I had some sausages to eat".
 Immediately her plate on the table was full of sausages. Then an argument began because the husband said that his wife had wasted one of their good wishes on such a cheap thing as sausages. The argument grew hotter, and finally the wife said angrily, " I wish the sausages were hanging from your nose". Immediately the sausages flew to her husband's nose and remained there.
 Now, there was only one thing the poor woman could do. She really loved her husband, and so she had to spend her third  wish removing the sausages from her husband's nose.

 

Bài 2:

His early life
    George was born in Virginia.  His family owned a big farm and had slaves.  George didn´t have much education.  During his life he had three jobs:  he was a farmer, a soldier, and a politician.  He loved the life of a farmer.  He grew tobacco and owned horses.  He worked hard but he also liked dancing and going to the theatre.  In 1759 he married a widow called Martha Custis.  They were happy together, but didn´t have any children.
 His later life
     He was Commander in Chief of the army and fought the British in the War of Independence.  When the war ended in 1781 he was happy to go back to the farm, but his country wanted him to be President, and gave his name to the new capital city.  He started the building of the White House, but he never lived in it.  By 1797 he was tired of politics.  He went back to his farm and died there two years later.

Bài 1 :
Vợ một bác chủ trại dành gần hết thời gian của mình ước ao những điều mà bà không có. Bà thường ước: "Ước gì tôi giàu có," hoặc "Ước gì tôi xinh đẹp," hoặc "Ước gì tôi có một ông chồng đẹp trai."
Do đó, một ngày nọ, có mấy bà tiên quyết định ban cho bà ba điều ước.
Bác chủ trại cùng vợ bàn bạc rất lâu xem nên ước gì. Nhưng bà vợ bác chủ trại đột nhiên thấy đói bụng và do tác động mạnh mẽ của thói quen, bà ước: "Tôi ước tôi có vài khúc xúc xích để ăn."
Ngay lập tức, cái khay trên bàn của bà hiện lên đầy những khúc xúc xích. Thế là hai người bắt đầu cãi nhau vì người chủ trại cho rằng vợ của mình đã phí mật một trong những điều ước quí báu để xin một thứ chẳng đáng gì là những khúc xúc xích. Càng lúc cuộc cãi vã càng to, sau cùng bà vợ nói một cách giận dữ: "Tôi ước những khúc xúc xích đó treo lòng thòng ở mũi của ông."

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.

Mickey Mantle was one of the greatest baseball players of all time. He played for the New York Yankees in their years of glory. From the time Mantle began to play professionally in 1951 to his last year in 1968, baseball was the most popular game in the United States. For many people, Mantle symbolized the hope, prosperity, and confidence of America at that time.

Mantle was a fast and powerful player, a “switch-hitter” who could bat both right-handed and lefthanded. He won game after game, one World Series championship after another, for his team. He was a wonderful athlete, but this alone cannot explain America’s fascination with him.

Perhaps it was because he was a handsome, red-haired country boy, the son of a poor miner from Oklahoma. His career, from the lead mines of the West to the heights of success and fame, was a fairy-tale version of the American dream. Or perhaps it was because America always loves a “natural”: a person who wins without seeming to try, whose talent appears to come from an inner grace. That was Mickey Mantle.

But like many celebrities, Mickey Mantle had a private life that was full of problems. He played without complaint despite constant pain from injuries. He lived to fulfill his father’s dreams and drank to forget his father’s early death.

It was a terrible addiction that finally destroyed his body. It gave him cirrhosis of the liver and accelerated the advance of liver cancer. Even when Mickey Mantle had turned away from his old life and warned young people not to follow his example, the destructive process could not be stopped. Despite a liver transplant operation that had all those who loved and admired him hoping for a recovery, Mickey Mantle died of cancer at the age of 63.

What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Mickey Mantle’s success and private life full of problems

B. Mickey Mantle as the greatest baseball player of all time

C. Mickey Mantle and the history of baseball

D. Mickey Mantle and his career as a baseball player

Mantle was a fast and powerful player, a “switch-hitter” who could bat both right-handed and lefthanded. He won game after game, one World Series championship after another, for his team. He was a wonderful athlete, but this alone cannot explain America’s fascination with him.

Perhaps it was because he was a handsome, red-haired country boy, the son of a poor miner from Oklahoma. His career, from the lead mines of the West to the heights of success and fame, was a fairy-tale version of the American dream. Or perhaps it was because America always loves a “natural”: a person who wins without seeming to try, whose talent appears to come from an inner grace. That was Mickey Mantle.

But like many celebrities, Mickey Mantle had a private life that was full of problems. He played without complaint despite constant pain from injuries. He lived to fulfill his father’s dreams and drank to forget his father’s early death.

It was a terrible addiction that finally destroyed his body. It gave him cirrhosis of the liver and accelerated the advance of liver cancer. Even when Mickey Mantle had turned away from his old life and warned young people not to follow his example, the destructive process could not be stopped. Despite a liver transplant operation that had all those who loved and admired him hoping for a recovery, Mickey Mantle died of cancer at the age of 63.

The word “this” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.

A. Mantle’s being fascinated by many people

B. Mantle’s being a wonderful athlete

C. Mantle’s being a “switch-hitter”

D. Mantle’s being a fast and powerful player
