IV. Read the following passage and choose the best answer from A,B, C or D:I had feared that my companion would talk, but it was soon plain (rõ ràng) that there was no such danger. Two days passed during which we did not exchange a single word. He seemed, indeed, absolutely unaware of my presence. He neither read nor wrote, but spent most of his time sitting at the table and looking out of the window across the pleasant parkland that surrounded the house. He sometimes talked to himself and said things half under his breath. He bit his nails and once he produced a penknife and dug holes in the furniture until one of the attendants (nhân viên) took it from him. I thought at first that perhaps he was mentally ill. During the second day I even began to feel a little nervous of him. He was extremely large, both broad and tall, with very wide shoulders and enormous hands. His huge head was usually sunk low between his shoulders. He had dark, rather untidy hair and a big shapeless mouth which open very now and then. Once or twice he began singing to himself, but broke off abruptly (bất ngờ) on each occasion - and this was the nearest he seemed to get to noticing my presence.
By the evening of the second day I was completely unable to go on with my work. Out of a mixture of nervousness and curiosity, I sat, too looking out of my window and blowing my nose, and wondering how to set about establishing the human contact which was by now becoming an absolute necessity. It ended of with my asking him for his name. He had been introduced to me when he arrived, but I had paid
no attention then. He turned towards me a very gently pair of dark eyes and said his name: Huge Belfounder. He added:" I thought you didn't want to talk." I said that I was not at all against talking, that I had just been rather busy with something when he arrived, and I begged his pardon if I had appeared rude.
It seemed to me, even from the way he spoke, that he was not only mentally ill, but was highly intelligent; and I began, almost automatically, to pack up my papers. I knew that from now on I should do no more work. I was sharing a room with a person of the greatest fascination.

1. How did Huge spend the first two days?
A. He worked as if the writer was not there.
B. He talked and sang to himself from time to time.
C. He spent his time making holes in the furniture.
D. He kept annoying the attendants.
2. On the second evening the writer
A. tried in vain to start a conversation.
B. was feeling bored.
C. began to fell frightened of his companion.
D. could not concentrate on his work.
3. Huge didn't talk to the writer at first because
A. he didn't realise the writer wished to.
B. he thought the writer was rude.
C. he was feeling ill.
D. he was too busy.
4. The writer's attitude to Huge changed from
A. fear to nervousness.
B. nervousness to interest.
C. curiosity to nervousness.
D. nervousness to unfriendliness

Read the passage. Write T for true sentences, F for false sentences and N for the sentences containing no information.

It is great to have pen pals. In my opinion, friendship is among the meaningful relations in our life. Many of my friends have pen pals and they correspond regularly. A friend of mine once got a letter from the school mailbox and told me a lot of interesting things about her pen pal. That made me excited and I was eager to have one. Therefore, I got online and did some chatting. I was lucky to get to know a very nice Australian girl. Her name's Jenny. She and I are the same age and we have a lot of things in common.

Although my English was not very good at first, we were able to understand each other quite well. My English has improved a lot. Jenny has never been to Viet Nam. However, she thinks well of our country and our people. When she comes to Viet Nam, I will take her to some interesting places, especially our World Heritage Sites, such as Ha Long Bay, Hoi An Ancient Town, My- Son Tower. Through her mail, she tells me about her country. Thanks to Jenny, I know more and more about Australia. I hope to be an exchange student in Australia some day and we will be able to meet.

1. The writer's English is now better than before. ( T )

2. The writer has never been to Australia. ( T )

3. Australia doesn't have as many World Heritage Sites as Viet Nam. ( F )

4. The pen pal mentioned is as old as the writer. ( T )

5. They correspond in Vietnamese ( T )
