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.

Choosing a career may be one of the hardest jobs you ever have, and it must be done with care. View a career as an opportunity to do something you love, not simply as a way to earn a living. Investing the time and effort to thoroughly explore your options can mean the difference between finding a stimulating and rewarding career and move from job to unsatisfying job in an attempt to find the right one. Work influences virtually every aspect of your life, from your choice of friends to where you live. Here are just a few of the factors to consider.

Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision. You may want to begin by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses. Think about the classes, hobbies, and surroundings that you find most appealing. Ask yourself questions, such as “Would you like to travel? Do you want to work with children? Are you more suited to solitary or cooperative work?” There are no right or wrong answers; only you know what is important to you. Determine which job features you require, which ones you would prefer, and which ones you cannot accept. Then rank them in order of importance to you.

The setting of the job is one factor to take into account. You may not want to sit at a desk all day. If not, there are diversity occupation – building inspector, supervisor, real estate agent – that involve a great deal of time away from the office. Geographical location may be a concern, and employment in some fields is concentrated in certain regions. Advertising job can generally be found only in large cities. On the other hand, many industries such as hospitality, law education, and retail sales are found in all regions of the country. If a high salary is important to you, do not judge a career by its starting wages. Many jobs, such as insurance sales, offers relatively low starting salaries; however, pay substantially increases along with your experience, additional training, promotions and commission.

Don’t rule out any occupation without learning more about it. Some industries evoke positive or negative associations. The traveling life of a flight attendant appears glamorous, while that of a plumber does not. Remember that many jobs are not what they appear to be at first, and may have merits or demerits that are less obvious. Flight attendants must work long, grueling hours without sleeps, whereas plumbers can be as highly paid as some doctors.

Another point to consider is that as you mature, you will likely develop new interests and skills that may point the way to new opportunities. The choice you make today need not be your final one.

Why does the author mention “long, grueling hours without sleeps” in paragraph 4?

 

A. To contrast the reality of a flight attendant’s job with most people’s perception

B. To emphasize the difficulty of working as a plumber

C. To discourage readers from choosing a career as a flight attendant

D. To show that people must work hard for the career they have chosen

Đáp án A

Tại sao tác giả đề cập đến “nhiều giờ liền mệt mỏi không ngủ” trong đoạn 4?

A. Để đối chiếu hiện thực nghề tiếp viên hàng không với suy nghĩ của mọi người.

B. Để nhấn mạnh sự vất vả của nghề sửa ống nước.

C. Để can ngăn độc giả chọn nghề tiếp viên.

D. Để biểu thị rằng mọi người phải nỗ lực với nghề mình chọn.

Nói về nghề tiếp viên, tác giả viết: “The traveling life of a flight attendant appears glamorous... Flight attendants must work long, grueling hours without sleeps”

(Cuộc sống dịch chuyển của tiếp viên có vẻ hấp dẫn, thú vị... Tiếp viên phải làm việc vất vả suốt nhiều giờ liền không ngủ)

Hai vế đối ngược nhau, một mặt là vẻ ngoài dễ dàng, sung sướng và mặt khác là hiện thực vất vả. Rõ ràng, tác giả đề cập đến “long, grueling hours without sleeps” là để đối chiếu hiện thực nghề tiếp viên với suy nghĩ của mọi người về vẻ ngoài hấp dẫn của nó.

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.

There is one planet that still fascinates and teases scientists mainly because it doesn’t have an atmosphere to obscure observation, yet it is not big enough for sufficiently accurate telescopic observation. The fact that it is also very close to the sun also makes it difficult for astronomers.

However, space telescopes have told us a lot more about Mercury. It is rather similar to Earth’s moon and to Mars. There are mountainous areas dotted with craters and large valleys which are uncratered. The moon’s valleys have fewer cracks and ridges are smoother. Mercury’s valleys are filled with volcanic rocks, similar to on the moon, yet there is no evidence of volcanoes, even extinct ones, on Mercury, as there is on the both Mars and the moon, and of course here on Earth.

So, scientists presume the valleys on Mercury were caused by different things, that is to say not by volcanoes, but by very large meteorites, which also caused the cracks in the terrain and left the ridges rough and uneven. More and better photos of Mercury are at present at best only hypotheses.

Question28. What is the main topic of this passage?

A. Astronomers’ difficulties. C. The Earth’s moon.

B. Observation of planets. D. The planet, Mercury

Question29. Why does Mercury still tease scientists?

A. Because it has an atmosphere which obscures observation.

B. Because it is too close to the sun.

C. Because it is difficult for space probes to get close to.

D. Because it is too small.

Question30. What is true about Mercury but not true about the moon or Mars?

A. The valleys are filled with volcanic rocks. C. There are no volcanoes.

B. The valleys are uncratered. D. They are hilly regions.

Question31. What does the author imply space telescopes can do better than land-based telescopes?

A. Show more of the planet, Mercury. C. Show what caused Mercury’s valleys.

B. Show the meteorites which hit Mercury. D. Show the volcanoes on Mercury. 

Question32. What can we infer from the passage that astronomers still need to get more detailed observation of Mercury?

A. More hypotheses C. Larger space telescopes.

B. Better and more space telescopes. D. More ways to prove hypotheses.

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.

American foods began to affect the rest of the world. American emphasis on convenient and rapid consumption is best represented in fast foods such as hamburgers, French fries, and soft drinks. By the 1960s and 1970s fast foods became one of America’s strongest exports as franchises for Mc Donald’s and Burger King spread through Europe and other parts of the world, including Russia and China. Traditional meals cooked at home and consumed at a leisurely pace gave way to quick lunches and dinners eaten on the run as other countries imitated American cultural patterns.

By the late 20th century Americans had become more conscious of their diets, eating more poultry, fish and vegetables, and fewer eggs and less beef. Cooks began to rediscover many world cuisines in forms closer to their original. In California, chefs combined fresh fruits and vegetables available with ingredients and spices borrowed from immigrant kitchens to create an innovative cooking style that was lighter than traditional French, but more interesting and varied than typical American cuisine. Along with the state’s wines, California cuisine took its place among the acknowledged forms of fine dining.

Question 28. Fast foods such as hamburgers, French fries, and soft drinks_________.

A. are popular because of their nutritious values 

B. are traditional meals of the US people

C. became more popular than meals cooked at home in China.

D. became popular with other European and Asian countries

Question 29. Which of the following is similar in meaning to the word ‘cuisine’?

A. cooking B. cooker C. cookery D. cook

Question 30. What is the main idea of the first paragraph? 

A.America’s cuisine used to have an influence on many countries. 

B. Fast foods became one of America’s strongest exports.

C. Mc Donald’s and Burger King are American food suppliers successful in Europe. 

D. Traditional meals cooked at home are not common in the US. 

Question 31. Which of the following statements is true? 

A. By the late 20th century, fast foods had lost their popularity in the US. 

B. Americans used to eat more poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables than they do now.

C. Cooking styles of other countries began to affect Americans by the late 20th century. 

D. Fewer eggs and less beef in American diet made them fitter.

Question 32. An innovative style of cooking was created in California_________.

A. to attract more immigrants to the state
