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 36 to 42.

On March 15, Dunes View Middle School held a contest for school bands. Student bands tried out for the opportunity to perform at the school picnic, which will be held at the end of June. The winner of the contest was the band called Four Square. "We're very proud that we won the contest and are excited to perform at the picnic," says Peter Zandt, who plays the guitar in the band. "And since we hope to perform someday at other local places, like restaurants and parks, this will be a great first step."

The contest was the creation of music teacher Mr. Lopez and drama teacher Ms. Cho. The two thought of the idea while discussing recent years' school picnics. "The picnic is one of the biggest events of the year, but it has become a bit formulaic ," said Ms. Cho. "The activities are the same every year. We thought that a performance by a student band would make the school picnic more interesting and fun." Mr. Lopez, Ms. Cho, and three other teachers judged the contest, which took place in the gym. Eight student bands signed up to audition. The bands varied in their musical forms: there were several rock bands, a folk band, and even a jazz band. "I'm disappointed that my band didn't win, but I think the judges made the right choice," says student Marisol Varga, a member of the folk trio called The Bell Girls. "Four Square is really excellent."

To see if the bands could present a wide range of musical skills, the teachers asked them each to prepare two songs: one song with original words, and another in which students played instrumental music only. The judges finally chose the band Four Square as the winner of the contest. Four Square is a rock band with an unusual twist: it includes a violin player! The members of Four Square write their own songs and practice three times a week after school. Students and teachers agreed that the band competition was a big success. All are looking forward to the school picnic in June.

“And since we hope to perform someday at other local places, like restaurants and parks, this will be a great first step.” (Và vì chúng tôi hi vọng một ngày nào đó sẽ được biểu diễn ở những địa điểm khác như là ở trong những nhà hàng hay là công viên chẳng hạn nên đây sẽ là bước đệm đầu tiên.)

Dịch bài

Vào ngày 15 tháng 3, trường trung học Dunes View đã tổ chức một cuộc thi cho các ban nhạc của trường. Các ban nhạc trong trường đã thi đấu với nhau để giành được cơ hội biểu diễn trong cuộc picnic của nhà trường vào cuối của tháng 6. Đội chiến thắng của cuộc thi là ban nhạc Four Square. "Chúng tôi rất tự hào khi đã giành chiến thắng và hào hứng với việc biểu diễn trong cuộc picnic”, Peter Zandt, người chơi ghi ta trong ban nhạc cho hay. Và vì chúng tôi hi vọng một ngày nào đó sẽ được biểu diễn ở những địa điểm khác như là ở trong những nhà hàng hay là công viên chẳng hạn nên đây sẽ là bước đệm đầu tiên.

Cuộc thi này là ý tưởng của thầy Lopez, một giáo viên âm nhạc và cô Cho, một giáo viên kịch. Cả hai thầy cô đã nghĩ ra ý tưởng đó trong khi đang thảo luận về những cuộc picnic gần đây của nhà trường. “Cuộc picnic là một trong những sự kiện lớn nhất của năm nhưng nó đã dần trở nên tẻ nhạt", cộ Cho nói.

"Những hoạt động như thế cứ năm nào cũng như năm nào. Chúng tôi đã nghĩ rằng một màn biểu diễn bởi một ban nhạc trong trường sẽ làm cuộc picnic thú vị và vui vé hơn." Thầy Lopez, cô Cho và ba giáo viên khác làm giám khảo cuộc thi, cái mà được diễn ra trong phòng gym. Tám ban nhạc đăng kí thử giọng. Những ban nhạc này có sự đa dạng về chủng loại: có một vài ban nhạc Rock, nhạc dân gian và một nhóm nhạc Jazz. “Tôi đã rất thất vọng khi ban nhạc của chúng tôi không giành chiến thắng nhưng tôi nghĩ ban giám khảo đã lựa chọn đúng", Marisol Varga, một thành viên trong ban nhạc dân gian Bell Girls nói, "Four Square” thực sự xuất sắc".

Để xem liệu những ban nhạc này có thể hiện được nhiều kĩ năng âm nhạc hay không, các thầy cô đã yêu cầu mỗi ban nhạc chuẩn bị hai bài hát: một bài hát chay và một bài khác chỉ chơi nhạc cụ. Giám khảo cuối cùng đã chọn ra ban nhạc chiến thắng là Four Square. Four Square là một ban nhạc Jock với một sự thay đổi bất thường: nó gồm cả một người chơi vĩ cầm. Thành viên của Four Square tự viết bài hát cho nhóm mình và luyện tập ba lần một tuần sau các giờ học ở trường. Tất cả giáo viên và học sinh đều đồng ý rằng cuộc thi thành công rực rỡ. Tất cả họ đang ngóng chờ cho cuộc picnic của trường vào tháng 6 này.

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 35 to 42.

Henry is the undisputed star of Dronfield School near Sheffield. Whatever the achievements of other members of the comprehensive school, it is Henry, with his soulful eyes and glossy hair, who has hogged the limelight, appearing on television in Britain and abroad. Yet despite all the public adulation, Henry stirs up no envy or resentment among the 2000 students – in fact, they all adore him. The dog, who first arrived six months ago, is a super dog, who has improved students' behaviour and encouraged more students to focus on their academic achievement.

Andrew Wainwright, a student at Dronfield School, says there is something magical and calming about being able to interact with Henry during his time at the school's catch-up classes, and that if he falls behind, that opportunity will be denied. Even doubting staff have finally been won round. Perhaps that is because Henry, who lies on the floor during staff meetings, has also had a calming effect on them.

It was Andrew's teacher, Wendy Brown and the school counsellor, Julie Smart, who first proposed buying a school dog. "Julie and I were talking one day about how looking after dogs can positively affect children's conduct," says Brown. "We did some research and discovered that the presence of pets has been shown to be therapeutic. A number of studies have shown that animals improve recovery after surgery or illness and have a calming influence on people in a lot of settings. Some of my kids can be a handful and some of the children Julie counsels have terrible problems."

Could the school dog become a craze? Other schools such as the Mulberry Bush, a primary school for children with behavioural problems, have stepped forward to point out they already have one. Rosie Johnston, a Mulberry staff member has been bringing her golden retriever, Muskoka, into school for three years. Apart from being a calming influence, Muskoka even plays his part in literacy lessons. Children at the school can be too shy to read to adults so they read to Muskoka. "Their anxiety about mispronouncing something or getting the words in the wrong order is reduced when they read to him," says Johnston.

Psychologist Dr Deborah Wells from Queen's University Belfast specialises in animal-human interaction. She believes that the underlying key to the Henry effect is that dogs offer unconditional love and that cheers up adults and children and helps with self-esteem. But traditionalist Chris Woodhead, the former chief inspector of schools says, "I don't see why a teacher cannot create a positive learning environment through the subject they teach and their personality. Dogs strike me as a bit of a publicity stunt. It's the kind of sentimental story journalists love." Despite this sentiment, Henry remains as popular as ever.

Which of the following is implied in the passage?

A. Rosie Johnston is more experienced than Wendy Brown in working with animals.

B. Wendy Brown and Julie Smart are dedicated animal rights activists who wish to get their message across to young people.

C. Interaction with Henry is used to boost students' learning motivation at Dronfield School.

D. Administrators at Dronfield School are skeptical as to whether Henry's companion will benefit their students

C. Những tương tác (của học sinh) với chú chó Henry được dùng để tăng động lực học cho học sinh ở trường Dronfield.

D. Ban quản trị của trường Dronfield hoài nghi về việc liệu sự đồng hành của Henry có mang lại lợi ích cho học sinh của họ không.

Thông tin: The dog, who first arrived six months ago, is a super dog, who has improved students' behaviour and encouraged more students to focus on their academic achievement.

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 35 to 42.

Henry is the undisputed star of Dronfield School near Sheffield. Whatever the achievements of other members of the comprehensive school, it is Henry, with his soulful eyes and glossy hair, who has hogged the limelight, appearing on television in Britain and abroad. Yet despite all the public adulation, Henry stirs up no envy or resentment among the 2000 students – in fact, they all adore him. The dog, who first arrived six months ago, is a super dog, who has improved students' behaviour and encouraged more students to focus on their academic achievement.

Andrew Wainwright, a student at Dronfield School, says there is something magical and calming about being able to interact with Henry during his time at the school's catch-up classes, and that if he falls behind, that opportunity will be denied. Even doubting staff have finally been won round. Perhaps that is because Henry, who lies on the floor during staff meetings, has also had a calming effect on them.

It was Andrew's teacher, Wendy Brown and the school counsellor, Julie Smart, who first proposed buying a school dog. "Julie and I were talking one day about how looking after dogs can positively affect children's conduct," says Brown. "We did some research and discovered that the presence of pets has been shown to be therapeutic. A number of studies have shown that animals improve recovery after surgery or illness and have a calming influence on people in a lot of settings. Some of my kids can be a handful and some of the children Julie counsels have terrible problems."

Could the school dog become a craze? Other schools such as the Mulberry Bush, a primary school for children with behavioural problems, have stepped forward to point out they already have one. Rosie Johnston, a Mulberry staff member has been bringing her golden retriever, Muskoka, into school for three years. Apart from being a calming influence, Muskoka even plays his part in literacy lessons. Children at the school can be too shy to read to adults so they read to Muskoka. "Their anxiety about mispronouncing something or getting the words in the wrong order is reduced when they read to him," says Johnston.

Psychologist Dr Deborah Wells from Queen's University Belfast specialises in animal-human interaction. She believes that the underlying key to the Henry effect is that dogs offer unconditional love and that cheers up adults and children and helps with self-esteem. But traditionalist Chris Woodhead, the former chief inspector of schools says, "I don't see why a teacher cannot create a positive learning environment through the subject they teach and their personality. Dogs strike me as a bit of a publicity stunt. It's the kind of sentimental story journalists love." Despite this sentiment, Henry remains as popular as ever.

According to paragraph 4, which of the following is one of the roles played by Muskoka at the Mulberry Bush?

A. Encouraging a more proactive approach to teaching literacy

B. Minimizing the number of words mispronounced by its students

C. Relieving its teaching staff of unnecessary workload

D. Helping its students to reduce their fear of making mistakes

Thông tin: Children at the school can be too shy to read to adults so they read to Muskoka. "Their anxiety about mispronouncing something or getting the words in the wrong order is reduced when they read to him," says Johnston.

Tạm dịch: Học sinh ở trường này quá xấu hổ để đọc cho người lớn nên chúng đọc cho con Muskoko. “Sự lo lắng về việc phát âm sai hoặc đọc sai thứ tự các từ giảm đi khi các em học sinh đọc cho chú chó này”, Johnston nói.
