Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the question.

Women often complain that the men in their lives are not romantic enough. But men sometimes have trouble expressing their feelings, often resorting to cheesy Hallmark cards or pricey bejeweled baubles to do the job for them. But there is a far better way to be romantic and it doesn't involve spending a fortune or even opening your mouth.

In the days before courting consisted of hanging out and getting drinks, courting was a formal and dignified endeavor. Symbols were used to express feelings and thoughts deemed too special for mere words. During the Victorian Era, a whole romantic language developed around the giving and receiving of flowers. Everything from the type and size of the flower to the way it was held or presented conveyed layers of meaning and communicated a gentleman's feelings and intentions. Each bouquet contained a secret message for a lady to eagerly interpret and endlessly dissect.

These days giving flowers has become a somewhat ho-hum cliché. Resurrecting this Victorian tradition will infuse the gesture with new life and romance and bring back some of the subtly, mystery, and fun of courtship. Your lady will swoon that you put far more thought into your selection of flowers than grabbing a bouquet out of the case at Wal-Mart. You'll come off as a real gentleman and a hopeless romantic. It can become an amazing tradition you'll both enjoy. Seriously, women eat this stuff up.

Of course, even women nowadays have forgotten the meanings of flowers. So buy your lady a flower dictionary. And keep a copy for yourself (it's important that you both use the same reference, as the meanings were never set in stone and can sometimes vary from book to book). Then, each time you present her with a bouquet, she can search the volume to find what secret messages you have embedded in the flowers.

 

What is the author's main purpose in the passage?

A. To complain that men are not romantic enough. 

B. To prove that men are not as romantic as women. 

C. To suggest ways for men to be more romantic. 

D. To explain what is called "romance".

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 38 to 42.

  Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally, spelling, however, cannot.

  Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.

  Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warm, and instruct people. While verbalization is most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.

Sign language is said to be very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally EXCEPT for _________.

A. spelling

B. ideas

C. whole words

Dịch đoạn văn:

Kể từ khi con người tồi tại trên Trái Đất, họ đã vận dụng đa đạng các hình thức khác nhau để giao tiếp. Nhìn chung, việc bày tỏ cảm xúc và suy nghĩ chính thường được nói ra từ miệng. Khi tồn tại rào cản ngôn ngữ, giao tiếp đã hoàn thành tốt nhiệm vụ thông qua ngôn ngữ cử chỉ mà những chuyển động của nó đại diện cho các chữ cái, các từ và các ý tưởng. Du khách, người khiếm thính, người khiếm thanh đã phải sử dụng phương thức này để truyền đạt. Nhiều những kí hiệu câu từ của dạng ngôn ngữ này rất độc đáo và chinh xác, và thường được sử dụng 1 cách vô thức. Mặc dù vậy, việc đánh vần là không thể.

Ngôn ngữ cơ thể có thể truyền đạt tốt cảm xúc và suy nghĩ thông quá những hành động cụ thể. Một cái nháy mắt có thể là tán tỉnh, „thả thính’ hoặc ngụ ý bữa tiệc chỉ là trò đùa. Một cái gật đầu biểu hiện cho sự đồng tình hay cái lắc đầu như là một phản ứng tiêu cực, không đồng tình. Một dạng khác của giao tiếp phi ngôn ngữ được tìm thấy trên „chữ nổi’ (một hệ thống bao gồm nhiều dấu chấm được đọc bằng cách sờ những ngón tay), cờ hiệu, mã Morse và tín hiệu khói. Bản đồ và các kí hiệu được vẽ cũng có thể dẫn đường con người.

Trong khi „nói’ là dạng phổ biến nhất của giao tiếp thì các hệ thống và công cụ khác cũng diễn đạt được suy nghĩ và ý tưởng của con người
