VIII. Read the text below and choose the best answer for each question after the text.
SOME ANIMALS CAN PREDICT FUTURE EARTHQUAKES
A recent investigation by scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey shows that strange animal behavior
might help predict future earthquakes. Investigators found such occurrences in a ten-kilometer radius of the
epicenter of a fairly recent quake. Some birds screeched and flew about wildly: dogs yelped and ran around
uncontrollably.
Scientists believe that animals can perceive these environmental changes as early as several days before
the mishap.
In 1976, after observing animal behavior, the Chinese were able to predict a devastating quake. Although
hundreds of thousands of people were killed, the government was able to evacuate millions of other people
and thus keep the death toll at a lower level.
1. What prediction may be made by observing animal behavior?
A. An impending earthquake
B. The number of people who will die
C. The ten-kilometer radius of the epicenter
D. Environmental changes
2. Why can animals perceive these changes when humans cannot?
A. Animals are smarter than humans.
B. Animals have certain instincts that humans don’t possess.
C. By running around the house, they can feel the vibrations.

3. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Some animals may be able to sense an approaching earthquake
B. By observing animal behavior scientists perhaps can predict earthquakes.

D. All birds and dogs in a ten-kilometer radius of the epicenter went wild before the earthquake.
4. In this passage the word “evacuate” most nearly means
A. remove B. destroy C. exile D. emaciate

VI. Read the article about Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, give the answers
to the questions in the conversation, and practise it in pairs. ordinary life … an amazing idea
Tim Berners-Lee looks very ordinary. He is about sixty years old and has brown hair. He was born in
England but now lives in Massachusetts in the USA. But in 1989 Tim had a very important idea. He
invented the World Wide Web (www).
Tim went to school in London. Both his parents worked with computers so it isn'tsuprising that he loved
computers from an early age. When he was eighteen, he left school and went to Oxford University where
he studied physics. At Oxford, he became more and more interested in computers, and he made his first
computer from an old television. He graduated in 1976 and got a job with a computer company in Dorset,
England. In 1989, he went to work in Switzerland where he first had the idea of an international
information network linked by computer. He decided to call it the World Wide Web, and he also decided
to make his ideas free to everyone – that is why we do not pay to use the Internet.

degrees and certificates of the most famous universities of France. Unlike the others, Pham Quang Le had
a clear purpose when studying abroad. He studied the science of making weapons to serve the country's
independence.
The meeting between him and President Ho Chi Minh in Paris in 1946 changed the life of Pham Quang
Le. In 1946, under the requirements of the French war, he was assigned as Head of Military Department
by Uncle Ho with the responsibility of researching, manufacturing weapons soldiers to fight the enemy.
Uncle Ho said, "This is the good thing. So from now on your name is Tran Dai Nghia…”
In difficult conditions, Professor Tran Dai Nghia and his comrades made successfully bazookas,
recoilless canons (SKZ), and flying bombs. In praise of the success of bazookas, when General Vo

The invention of the telephone has made our lives much easier. Before the telephone was invented people
use to communicate by fire or a light from a torch. Native Americans actually developed a more complex
system of signaling with fire by controlling the release of the smoke, but such smoke signals also had their
limitations. Another way to send a message between places that weren't too far apart was to use sounds better
than the human voice. African tribes used drums to communicate. The way they used to get messages across
from place to place was by foot, but once they learned how to use horses the messengers could get the
message much faster. In the nineteenth-century the message delivery system was called Pony Express. It
took about ten days for the message to get the destination. Within no time the telegraph was introduced in the
1800's. The first message was send on May 24, to the Supreme Court.
The inventor of the telephone was Alexander Graham Bell. He was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on
March 3, 1847. His father and grandfather were both elocutionists. His mother Eliza was a portrait painter
and a talented pianist. Alex was his family name. Alex was taught at home, so he was not especially gifted at
anything expect the piano. Alex gave himself a prize on the eleventh birthday, adding "Graham to his middle
name. Alex became a teacher himself, since he liked teaching other people. Alex hobbies were to collect
bugs and butterflies, the skeletons of animals, birds eggs, shells, and plants. Alex's grandfather died in 1865.
His brother Ted died in 1867 of tuberculosis, a disease for which there was no cure in the nineteenth century.
The way Alex was introduced to telegraph was by his father, when he took him to Charles Wheatstone
one of the most famous scientists in England at that time. He had developed a telegraph before Morse.
Wheatstone had made a machine.

using biotechnology. Perhaps a definition will be useful to understand how. A standard definition is that
biotechnology (or biotech for short) is the application of science and engineering to the direct or indirect use
of living organisms.
And as you know, the food and drink above are all produced by the fermentation of micro-organisms. In

ancient technique was first used in Egypt to make bread and wine around 4000BC!
