X. READING: Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question.
When robots are widely used in the home, they will probably be used to do the cleaning, table-laying, scrubbing (cọ rửa) and washing-up, but it is considered unlikely that they will be used to do the cooking – at least, not in the near future.
In factories, mobile robots are already used to carry out a large number of the distribution and assembly tasks while human beings carry out research and produce plans for new products. Among the numerous jobs on the farm, robots will drive tractors, keeping their eyes on the ground in front to guide the tractor along a straight line.
The majority of the robots used at present do not look like human beings at all because their design is chiefly functional.

XIII. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
For the last few months I have spent every Saturday in my flat and have done nothing more exciting than work at home, read the newspapers and watch television. I had begun feeling bored with this and so, last weekend I though I would do something different. I rang up several of my friends and we decided to go to London for the day. I was really excited as I hadn’t been to London since I was ten. We decided to go by coach as this was by far the cheapest means of transport that was available even though it meant that we needed to get up very early. Once in London we decided to take a sightseeing tour as we wanted to see some of the famous buildings. After the tour we bought some sandwiches and ate them in a small park. In the afternoon two of us went shopping and the others went to the theater. We met up again at 6:30 p.m., and went to a small restaurant in Soho. The meal was really good but, unfortunately, it took much longer than we had expected. We had to get a taxi back to the coach station. Luckily, we got there just two minutes before our coach left.
