Đáp án: B

Bài nghe:

M = Man

W = Woman

M Have you seen this story in the newspaper?

W Which one?

M The one about Sabine Moreau, a woman from Belgium. It’s quite funny. Listen to this: ‘When 67-year-old Sabine Moreau got in her car and set off from her home in Belgium, she was planning to pick up a friend from a station about60 km away. She used her satnav to guide her and did not notice when the satnav started taking her in the wrong direction. She ended up about 1500 km away in Croatia, having travelled through six different countries!’ The journey took two and a half days, it says here.

W That’s amazing. What did she do when she got to Croatia?

M She had to drive all the way home again!

W I reckon she just wanted to spend a couple of days on her own. I mean, I don’t think you can drive across six countries by mistake! Did anyone notice that she was missing?

M Er... yes, they did. It says here: ‘During that time, Ms Moreau’s son contacted the police and told them that his mother haddisappeared. When reporters asked Ms Moreau about her mistake, she told them that she had had a few things to think about and hadn’t really noticed what was happening.’

W That’s what she says now. But in my view, she invented the whole story about the satnav.

M I’m not sure. I expect hundreds of people end up in completely the wrong place because of their satnav. When you’re following a satnav, you stop thinking for yourself.

W I know ... but you don’t drive for two and half days. That’s ridiculous!

Tạm dịch: 

M = Người đàn ông

W = Người phụ nữ

M Bạn đã thấy câu chuyện này trên báo chưa?

W Chuyện gì?

M Câu chuyện về Sabine Moreau, một phụ nữ đến từ Bỉ. Nó khá buồn cười. Nghe này: ‘Khi Sabine Moreau, 67 tuổi, lên ô tô và khởi hành từ nhà ở Bỉ, bà định đón một người bạn ở một nhà ga cách đó khoảng 60 km. Cô ấy đã sử dụng vệ tinh định vị để dẫn đường cho mình và không để ý rằng vệ tinh bắt đầu đưa cô đi sai hướng từ khi nào. Cô ấy kết thúc ở Croatia cách đó khoảng 1500 km, sau khi đi qua sáu quốc gia khác nhau!’ Cuộc hành trình mất hai ngày rưỡi, nó nói ở đây.

W Đáng kinh ngạc đấy. Cô ấy đã làm gì khi đến Croatia?

M Cô ấy phải lái xe về nhà một lần nữa!

W Tôi nghĩ cô ấy chỉ muốn dành vài ngày cho riêng mình. Ý tôi là, tôi không nghĩ bạn có thể lái xe qua sáu quốc gia do nhầm lẫn! Ủa rồi có ai nhận ra là cô ấy đã mất tích không vậy?

M Er... Có đấy. Nó nói ở đây: 'Trong thời gian đó, con trai của bà Moreau đã liên lạc với cảnh sát và nói với họ rằng mẹ anh ta đã biến mất. Khi các phóng viên hỏi Moreau về sự nhầm lẫn của mình, cô ấy nói với họ rằng cô ấy không suy nghĩ gì nhiều và không thực sự nhận ra điều gì đang diễn ra.’

W Đó là những gì cô ấy nói bây giờ. Nhưng theo quan điểm của tôi thì chắc là cô ấy đã bịa ra toàn bộ câu chuyện về định vị vệ tinh.

M Cũng không chắc. Tôi đoán là có hàng trăm người đi nhầm chỗ vì định vị vệ tinh của họ. Khi bạn đang theo dõi định vị vệ tinh, bạn sẽ chả nghĩ được gì nữa luôn.

W Tôi biết... nhưng bạn không thể nào lái xe trong hai ngày rưỡi được. Thật nực cười!

Think about your daily life. Do you follow the same read to work every day? Do you sit in the same place in class? When you get dressed, do you always put the same leg or arm in first? You probably do, because we all have routines in our lives.

Routines save time and energy because you do them without thinking, that's why they are so important in the morning when your brain isn't active. Here's Jo talking about her morning routine

'Oh yes. I always do exactly the same things. I wake up at seven o'clock every morning, but I don't get quarter past seven. I switch on the radio and listen to the news. Then I go to the too and I brush my-teeth. I have a shower and dry my hair. Then I choose my clothes and I get dressed. I don'y eat anything for breakfast. I just have a cup of coffee. Then I go to work. Yes, it's always the same.'

Routines are very useful. but they also make you uncreative. So sometimes it's a good idea to break your routines. Get out of bed on the opposite side. Listen to a different route to work. Eat something different for brealfast. Change your routine. You never know, it could change your life.

II. Read the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.

four great reasons for high school students to volunteer

Volunteer work presents a great opportunity for teenagers to prepare for the future, as well as to improve their communities. In addition to boosting socializing skills and awareness of local organizations and social issues, high school students who volunteer often may have an advantage over their peers when headed off to college.

1. Gaining New Skills

With each new volunteer activity, students gain new skills. The skills seem to be basic or trivial at the time of training, but may provide fundamental grounds for future success. For example, For example, by managing the receipt, sorting and distributing the donations from community, school students might learn how to use spreadsheets to keep track of inventory. These skills are a great foundation for a job in management, accounting, or running a small business.

2. Giving Time

One of the most charitable acts anyone can do is donate their time and talents. Students who are busy with after-school sports or work to help support their families and still make time to volunteer on evenings or weekends show their outstanding character and resolve to make a difference. High school students may help to mentor younger ones or to assist with one-time special events held on weekends.

3. Showing Responsibility

Just like going to a job, committing to a volunteer position shows a student's responsibility. High school students should get involved in volunteer programs relating to their hobbies in order to naturally build responsibility. For example, those who love to read can find volunteer opportunities with a local library and those who enjoy sports can coach athletics at an after-school program for children.

4. Adding to the Resume

If a high school student's pre-college resume is limited to summer employment at a local restaurant or a cafe. it might be time to add a few lines. Commitment to community volunteer work over a long time shows that a student is willing to work for something without monetary compensation, including a college internship or apprenticeship, which may be a requirement of college programs.

A. high school students

C. both students and communities

D. none of them

2. The word 'trivial' in paragraph 2 most closely means ________

A. important

B. significant

C. of little importance

3. According to the passage, what job will the students' skill of using spreadsheets be useful to?

A. a manager

B. an accountant

C. a business owner

D. all of them

4. Why should busy students make their time to volunteer?

A. to demonstrate their excellent quality

B. to show their outstanding outcomes

C. to support their families

D. to develop their talents

5. According to the passage, what volunteer programs help to develop students' responsibility?

A. The programs are related to their future jobs

B. The programs are related to their interests

C. The programs are available after school

D. The programs are held by their local library

6. What volunteer work may be suitable for a student who likes sports?

A. working in a local library

B. joining a football team in their school

C. being a sport instructor at a primary school

D. coaching a football program for children after school hours

7. The phrase 'it might be time to add a few lines' in paragraph 5 most closely means________

A. Some more lines should be added in your resume

B. Much volunteer work must be included in your resume

C. You might spend more time to write your resume

D. Your resume should include your experience in volunteering

8. What may be a requirement of college programs for their future students?

A. being able to work over time

B. agreeing to work as a paid apprentice

C. being willing to work without being paid

D. being employed before

III. Read the text and decide whether the sentences are true (T) or false (F)

USAID IN Vietnam

Assisting persons with disabilities has long been one of the top priorities for the U.S. Government in Vietnam. Since 1989, with the establishment of the U.S. Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Leahy War Victims Fund (LWVF), USAID is working to increase the availability of and access to a wide variety of programs benefiting people with disabilities in conflict-affected countries.

In Vietnam, U. S. assistance has helped address medical needs and support the inclusion of Vietnamese with disabilities into all aspects of society. The U.S. Government has contributed more than $80 million in assistance to persons with disabilities, has improved the lives of more than 30,000 persons with disabilities, and has strengthened the Government of Vietnam’s capacity to provide high quality services to those in need. USAID has provided rehabilitation services for tens of thousands of persons with disabilities, education and vocational training including information technology, job placement, supporting parent associations to expand the advocacy for disability issues, and support for the development of legal codes to improve physical accessibility for persons with disabilities in public buildings.

USAID'S work supporting persons with disabilities is also viewed by many as contributing to successful US-Vietnam cooperation to overcome the painful past shared by the two countries. Program activities work in three areas: policy advocacy and coordination, direct assistance including occupational and physical therapy and providing assistive devices, and health systems strengthening, to provide quality disabilities-related care and treatment. Persons with disabilities have been more readily integrated into society by improving their access to health, education and social services. USAID programs support local governments in implementing the national disability law and the U.N. Convention on the rights of Persons with disabilities, and influencing public policies that affect the lives of persons with disabilities.
