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 following question. 

Although social changes in the United States were being wrought throughout most of the nineteenth–century, public awareness of the changes increased to new levels in the 1890's. The acute, growing public awareness of the social changes that had been taking place for some time was tied to tremendous growth in popular journalism in the late nineteenth century, including growth in quantity and circulation of both magazines and newspapers. These developments, in addition to the continued growth of cities, were significant factors in the transformation of society from one characterized by relatively isolated self–contained communities into an urban, industrial nation. The decade of the 1870's, for example, was a period in which the sheer number of newspapers doubled, and by 1880 the New York Graphic had published the first photographic reproduction in a newspaper, portending a dramatic rise in newspaper readership. Between 1882 and 1886 alone, the price of daily newspapers dropped from four cents a copy to one cent, made possible in part by a great increase in demand. Furthermore, the introduction in 1890 of the first successful linotype machine promised even further growth. In 1872 only two daily newspapers could claim a circulation of over 100,000, but by 1892 seven more newspapers exceeded that figure. A world beyond the immediate community was rapidly becoming visible. 

But it was not newspapers alone that were bringing the new awareness to people in the United States in the late nineteenth century. Magazines as they are known today began publication around 1882, and, in fact, the circulation of weekly magazines exceeded that of newspapers in the period which followed. By 1892, for example, the circulation of the Ladies' Home Journal had reached an astounding 700,000. An increase in book readership also played a significant part in this general trend. For example, Edward Bellamy's utopian novel, Looking Backward, sold over a million copies in1888, giving rise to the growth of organizations dedicated to the realization of Bellamy's vision of the future. The printed word, unquestionably, was intruding on the insulation that had characterized United States society in an earlier period.

What does the author mean by the statement "A world beyond the immediate community was rapidly becoming visible" in paragraph 1?

A. The United Slates exported newspapers to other countries

B. Photographs made newspapers more interesting

C. Communities remained isolated despite the growth of popular journalism

D. People were becoming increasingly aware of national and international issues

A. Hoa Kỳ xuất khẩu báo sang các nước khác.

B. Hình ảnh làm cho báo chí thú vị hơn.

C. Cộng đồng vẫn bị cô lập mặc dù sự phát triển của báo chí phổ biến

Từ việc tăng trưởng về số lượng và lưu hành của cả báo và tạp chí gắn liền với việc nhận thức cộng đồng ngày tăng về những thay đổi xã hội, có thể suy ra nghĩa của câu này là mọi người ngày càng nhận thức được các vấn đề quốc gia và quốc tế.

Dịch bài đọc:

Mặc dù những thay đổi xã hội ở Hoa Kỳ đã xảy ra trong hầu hết thế kỷ XIX, nhận thức của công chúng về những thay đổi đã tăng lên cấp độ mới trong những năm 1890. Nhận thức cộng đồng ngày tăng và càng gay gắt về những thay đổi xã hội đã diễn ra đôi khi gắn liền với sự phát triển khủng khiếp của báo chí phổ biến vào cuối thế kỷ XIX, bao gồm cả sự tăng trưởng về số lượng và lưu hành của cả báo và tạp chí. Những phát triển này, ngoài sự tăng trưởng liên tục của các thành phố, là những yếu tố quan trọng trong việc chuyển đổi xã hội từ việc mang đặc điểm của các cộng đồng khép kín tương đối biệt lập thành một quốc gia công nghiệp, đô thị. Ví dụ, thập niên 1870 là thời kỳ số lượng báo chí tăng gấp đôi, và đến năm 1880, Tờ New York Graphic đã xuất bản bản sao hình ảnh đầu tiên trên một tờ báo, cho thấy sự gia tăng mạnh mẽ về số lượng người đọc báo. Chỉ riêng từ năm 1882 đến 1886, giá của tờ báo hàng ngày đã giảm từ bốn xu một bản xuống còn một xu, một phần có thể là do nhu cầu tăng mạnh. Hơn nữa, sự ra đời vào năm 1890 của máy in li–nô thành công đầu tiên hứa hẹn sẽ còn tăng trưởng hơn nữa. Năm 1872 chỉ có hai tờ báo hàng ngày có thể yêu cầu lưu hành hơn 100.000 bản, nhưng đến năm 1892, có thêm bảy tờ báo vượt quá con số đó. Một thế giới bên ngoài cộng đồng gần gũi đã nhanh chóng trở nên hữu hình. 

Nhưng không chỉ những tờ báo mang lại nhận thức mới cho người dân ở Hoa Kỳ vào cuối thế kỷ XIX. Tạp chí như chúng được biết đến ngày hôm nay đã bắt đầu xuất bản vào khoảng năm 1882, và trên thực tế, lượng phát hành của các tạp chí hàng tuần vượt quá các tờ báo trong giai đoạn tiếp theo. Đến năm 1892, chẳng hạn, số lượng phát hành của Tạp chí Ngôi nhà của Phụ nữ đã lên tới con số đáng kinh ngạc 700.000 bản. Lượng người đọc sách tăng cũng đóng một phần quan trọng trong xu hướng chung này. Ví dụ, tiểu thuyết không tưởng của Edward Bellamy, Nhìn về phía sau, đã bán được hơn một triệu bản vào năm 1888, làm tăng sự phát triển của các tổ chức dành riêng cho việc hiện thực hóa tầm nhìn của Bellamy về tương lai. Không nghi ngờ gì nữa, những từ ngữ được in, đang xâm nhập vào sự cô lập đặc trưng của xã hội Hoa Kỳ trong thời kỳ trước đó

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 from 6 to 10.

In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the
day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires
immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call
during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A, guests tend to feel they arc not highly regarded if the invitation to
a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the
world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date
more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus,
misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American
life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S no one would
think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, he will say
a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.
Câu 6: What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours?
A. You want to see him or her. B. The matter requires careful attention.
C. The matter is somewhat important. D. It is a matter of life or death.
Câu 7: According to the passage, time plays an important role in.
A. everyday life B. private life
c. school life D. social life
Câu 8: According to the passage, the author of the article may agree to which of the following statements?
A. It is appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party date in the U.S.
B. It is best for one to make telephone calls at night because it costs much less.
C. If one is less than 5 minutes late, he has to make a short apology.
D. It may be appropriate to send your invitation cards to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some
cultures.

Câu 9: The word promptness in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to.
A. preparationB. hesitationc. politenessD. punctuality
Câu 10: From the passage, we can safely infer that.

A. the meaning of time differs in different parts of the world
B. it’s a matter of life or death if you call someone in the day time
C. it makes no difference in the U.S whether yon arc early or late for a business party
D. if a person is late for a date, lie needn’t make any explanation

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.

Education is another area of social life in which information technology is changing the way we communicate. Today’s college students may not simply sit in a lecture or a library to learn about their field. Through their computers and the wonders of virtual reality they can participate in lifelike simulated experiences and consider the following scenario of the future of education made possible through developments in information technology.

For children over the age of 10, daily attendance at schools is not compulsory. Yet, some of the older children attend school only once or twice weekly to get tutoriol support or instruction from a teacher. For the most part, pupils are encouraged to work online from home. Students must complete a minimum number of study hours per years; however, they may make up these hours by studying at home at times that suit their family schedule. They can log on early or late in the day and even join live classes in other countries. In order to ensure that each student is learning adequately, computer software will automatically monitor the number of hours a week each student studies online as well as that students’ learning materials and assessment activities. Reports will be available for parents and teachers. The software can then identify the best learning activities and condition for each invidual student and generate similar activities. It can also identify areas of weak achievement and produce special programs adjusted to the students’ needs.

Question23:  What is the topic of the passage? 

A.  Students don’t have to go to school any more.

B.  Computer software will make sure students learn at home.
