Martin Blane is a farmer in Cornwall, in England. One summer, Martin noticed that something strange was happening on his land. He was standing on a bridge and looking at the wheat in his fields when he realised there was a strange picture in the wheat.

‘I looked and saw lots of circles in the wheat. The line of circles went across the field from the gate all the way to the end by the stream. They were very big. Other circles made a kind of picture in the wheat. I thought aliens had come from space.’

During that summer, and all through the 1970s, more strange pictures appeared in wheat fields on farms in the south of England. Nobody knew what these ‘crop circles’ were. Photographs of them appeared in all the newspapers and people thought the subject was gripping. Many thought that aliens had come to Earth and made the pictures.

But then in the 1990s two men admitted to making the crop circles. They made a plan for a picture and then they went out secretly in the night to make their picture in the fields. Some people think they were creative and the crop circles were entertaining, but their actions were illegal. The men were on land that didn’t belong to them. Farmers were angry because their crops were damaged. The two men promised to stop.

However, the crop circles are still appearing. On the Internet, you will find photographs of crop circles on farms in different countries around the world. Some people believe the two men were lying, and the crop circles are really made by aliens.

1   Martin Blane noticed that the animals in his fields were behaving strangely.   ____

2   The big circles went from one end of the field to the other.      _____

3   The media weren’t interested in the crop circles.  _____                                         

4   Everyone was angry because the men damaged farmers’ crops.   ____             

5   People disagree about who makes the crop circles.     _____

"What are the benefits of mobile phones in your life?"

Here is a sample writing. Find out all the mistakes in each sentence to complete the passage.

In the age of advanced technology, the mobile phone is one of the most widely used technologies and it plays an important role in our lives. The mobile phone will certainly bring about a lot of advantages. First of all, the cell phone is considered the quickest means of communication in our daily life, hence we can contact easily with our friends and our relatives whenever by calling or sending messages. Second, it is also a means of entertainment for people. For instance, we can listen to music and play games on mobile phones. Moreover, by using the latest apps for smartphones, we can access to the Internet to watch films, check out profile in social networks and update our status wherever we are. Finally, if we have a smartphone in hand, our studying will become more effective such as looking up dictionary, finding out many sources of reference on the Internet. 

In conclusion,it could be said thatmobile phone is an indispensable partin our life.However,we should know how to use it properly so that it will not have bad effects in our study.

MOBILE PHONES: ARE THEY ABOUT TO TRANSFORM OUR LIVES?

We love them so much that some of us sleep with them under the pillow, yet we are increasingly concerned that we cannot escape their electronic reach. We use them to convey our most intimate secrets, yet we worry that they are a threat to our privacy. We rely on them more than the Internet to cope with modern life, yet many of us don’t believe advertisements saying we need more advanced services. Sweeping aside the doubts that many people feel about the benefits of new third generation phones and fears over the health effects of phone masts, a recent report claims that the long-term effects of new mobile technologies will be entirely positive so long as the public can be convinced to make use of them. Research about users of mobile phones reveals that the mobile has already moved beyond being a mere practical communications tool to become the backbone of modern social life, from love affairs to friendship to work.

The close relationship between user and phone is most pronounced among teenagers, the report says, who regard their mobiles as an expression of their identity. This is partly because mobiles are seen as being beyond the control of parents. But the researchers suggest that another reason may be that mobiles, especially text messaging, were seen as a way of overcoming shyness. The impact of phones, however, has been local rather than global, supporting existing friendship and networks, rather than opening users to a new broader community. Even the language of texting in one area can be incomprehensible to anybody from another area.

Among the most important benefits of using mobile phones, the report claims, will be a vastly improved mobile infrastructure, providing gains throughout the economy, and the provision of a more sophisticated location-based services for users. The report calls on government to put more effort into the delivery of services by mobile phone, with suggestion including public transport and traffic information and doctors’ text messages to remind patients of appointments. There are many possibilities. At a recent trade fair in Sweden, a mobile navigation product was launched. When the user enters a destination, a route is automatically downloaded to their mobile and presented by voices, pictures and maps as they drive. In future, these devices will also be able to plan around congestion and road works in real time. Third generation phones will also allow for remote monitoring of patients by doctors. In Britain, scientists are developing an asthma management solution using mobiles to detect early signs of an attack.

Mobile phones can be used in education. A group of teachers in Britain use third generation phones to provide fast internet service to children who live beyond the reach of terrestrial broadband services and can have no access to online information. ‘As the new generation of mobile technologies takes off, the social potential will vastly increase,’ the report argues.

Why do teenagers have such a close relationship with their mobile phones?

A. They are more inclined to be late than older people 

B. They feel independent when they use them. 

C. They tend to feel uncomfortable in many situations. 

D. They use text messages more than any other group

Ta có cụm "at short notice": không lâu trước đó; không có cảnh báo hoặc thời gian chuẩn bị.

Tạm dịch:

Việc phát minh ra điện thoại di động chắc chắn đã cách mạng hóa cách mọi người giao tiếp và ảnh hưởng đến mọi khía cạnh của cuộc sống của chúng ta. Vấn đề là liệu sự đổi mới công nghệ này có hại nhiều hơn lợi hay không.

Để trả lời câu hỏi này, trước tiên chúng ta phải xét tới người tiêu dùng. Có lẽ, hầu hết cha mẹ mua điện thoại di động cho con trong tuổi thiếu niên để biết con mình đang ở đâu và đảm bảo sự an toàn của chúng. Chúng ta cũng có thể cho rằng hầu hết thanh thiếu niên muốn có điện thoại di động để tránh bị mất

các mối quan hệ xã hội. Trong trường hợp này, lợi thế là rõ ràng. Tuy nhiên, chúng ta không thể phủ nhận thực tế là các tin nhắn văn bản đã bị sử dụng bởi những kẻ bắt nạt để hăm dọa các học sinh. Cũng có những bằng chứng nghi ngờ rằng việc nhắn tin đã ảnh hưởng đến kỹ năng đọc viết.

Việc sử dụng phổ biến của điện thoại di động cũng ảnh hướng đến người tiêu dùng trường thành. Nhân viên nào, trên đường về nhà từ nơi làm việc, sẽ miễn cưỡng trả lời cuộc gọi từ ông chủ của họ? Rõ ràng, theo một cuộc khảo sát gần đây, chỉ có 18% trong số chúng ta sẵn sàng tắt điện thoại di động khi rời

khỏi văn phòng. Phải thừa nhận, điện thoại di động có thể có khi phiền nhưng cũng có những lợi ích rõ ràng khi sở hữu một chiếc điện thoại di động. Cá nhân mà nói, chúng là vô giá khi nói đến việc sắp xếp cuộc hẹn xã giao hoặc kinh doanh trong thời gian ngắn không có thông báo trước đó. Theo một cuộc khảo sát gần đây, chúng cũng mang lại cho chủ nhân một cảm giác an toàn trong các tình huống khẩn cấp.

Tóm lại, điện thoại di động có những nhược điểm của chúng, nhưng những lợi ích lại vượt trội hơn. Tôi cho rằng không phải là do chính nó mà là người sử dụng nó.
