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.

In seventeenth-century colonial North America, all day-to-day cooking was done in the fireplace. By and large, fireplaces were planned for cooking as well as for warmth. Those in the Northeast were usually four or five feet high, and in the South, they were often high enough for a person to walk into. A heavy timber called the mantel tree was used as a lintel to support the stonework above the fireplace opening. This timber might be scorched occasionally, but it was far enough in front of the rising column of heat to be safe from catching fire.

Two ledges were built across from each other on the inside of the chimney. On these rested the ends of a "lug pole" from which pots were suspended when cooking. Wood from a freshly cut tree was used for the lug pole, so it would resist heat, but it had to be replaced frequently because it dried out and charred, and was thus weakened. Sometimes the pole broke and the dinner fell into the fire. When iron became easier to obtain, it was used instead of wood for lug poles, and later fireplaces had pivoting metal rods to hang pots from.

Beside the fireplace and built as part of it was the oven. It was made like a small, secondary fireplace with a flue leading into the main chimney to draw out smoke. Sometimes the door of the oven faced the room, but most ovens were built with the opening facing into the fireplace. On baking days (usually once or twice a week) a roaring fire of "oven wood," consisting of brown maple sticks, was maintained in the oven until its walls were extremely hot. The embers were later removed, bread dough was put into the oven, and the oven was sealed shut until the bread was fully baked.

Not all baking was done in a big oven, however. Also used was an iron "bake kettle," which looked like a stewpot on legs and which had an iron lid. This is said to have worked well when it was placed in the fireplace, surrounded by glowing wood embers, with more embers piled on its lid

According to paragraph 3, all of the following were true of a colonial oven EXCEPT ______. 

A. It was used to heat the kitchen every day 

B. The smoke it generated went out through the main chimney 

C. It was built as part of the main fireplace 

D. It was heated with maple sticks

Thông tin: On baking days (usually once or twice a week) a roaring fire of "oven wood," consisting of brown maple sticks, was maintained in the oven until its walls were extremely hot.

Tạm dịch: Vào những ngày nướng bánh (thường là một hoặc hai lần một tuần), một ngọn lửa "gỗ lò", bao gồm các que gỗ nâu, được duy trì trong lò cho đến khi các bức tường của nó cực kỳ nóng.

Dịch bài đọc:

Ở Bắc Mỹ thuộc thế kỷ thứ mười bảy, tất cả việc nấu nướng hàng ngày được thực hiện trong lò sưởi. Nhìn chung, lò sưởi đã được lên kế hoạch để nấu ăn cũng như để sưởi ấm. Những lò sưởi ở vùng Đông Bắc thường cao bốn hoặc năm feet, và ở miền Nam, nó thường đủ cao để một người bước vào. Một thanh gỗ nặng gọi là lanh tô của lò tường đã được sử dụng làm cây lanh để hỗ trợ cho việc ném đá phía trên cửa lò sưởi. Gỗ này đôi khi có thể bị cháy sém, nhưng nó đủ xa trước cột nhiệt tăng để an toàn khỏi bị bắt lửa.

Hai gờ được xây dựng đối diện nhau ở bên trong ống khói. Trên những cái còn lại, các đầu của một "tai cột" mà từ đó nồi được treo khi nấu. Gỗ từ một cây vừa mới chặt được sử dụng cho tai cột, vì vậy nó sẽ chịu được nhiệt, nhưng nó phải được thay thế thường xuyên vì nó bị khô và cháy, và do đó bị suy yếu. Đôi khi cột bị gãy và buổi tối nó rơi vào lửa. Khi sắt trở nên dễ có được hơn, nó được sử dụng thay gỗ để làm cột, và lò sưởi sau đó có các thanh kim loại xoay để treo nồi lên đó.

Bên cạnh lò sưởi và được xây dựng như một phần của nó là lò nướng. Nó được làm giống như một lò sưởi nhỏ, thứ cấp với ống khói dẫn vào ống khói chính để hút khói. Đôi khi cánh cửa của lò đối diện với căn phòng, nhưng hầu hết các lò nướng đều được chế tạo với cửa mở vào lò sưởi. Vào những ngày nướng bánh (thường là một hoặc hai lần một tuần), một ngọn lửa "gỗ lò", bao gồm các que gỗ nâu, được duy trì trong lò cho đến khi các bức tường của nó cực kỳ nóng. Các than hồng sau đó đã được gỡ bỏ, bột bánh mì được đưa vào lò nướng, và lò nướng được đóng kín cho đến khi bánh mì được nướng hoàn toàn.

Tuy nhiên, không phải tất cả việc nướng đều được thực hiện trong một lò lớn. Cũng được sử dụng là một "ấm đun nước" bằng sắt, trông giống như một cái xoong có chân và có nắp sắt. Cái này được cho là đã hoạt động tốt khi nó được đặt trong lò sưởi, được bao quanh bởi các than hồng gỗ phát sáng, với nhiều than hồng được chất đống trên nắp của nó

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions.

          Think about your daily life. Do you follow the same road to work every day? Do you sit in the same place in the 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 up till quarter past seven. I switch on the radio and listen to the news. Then I go to the loo and I brush my teeth. I have a shower and dry my hair. Then I choose my clothes and I get dressed, I don’t 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 radio station. Take a different route to work. Eat something different for breakfast. Change your routine. You never know, it could change your life.

Question 40. The word “loo” can best be replaced with _____________________.

Question 43. He plays sometimes (A) badminton or joins (B) a group of (C)workers to relax (D).
