We need to eat to meet our nutritional needs, but people often make their food choices for reasons
other than nutrition. The availability of foods and their cost, the taste and appearance of foods,
personal food likes and dislikes, convenience, religious and cultural practices and traditions, health
and medical conditions, etc. are reasons why people eat the foods that they eat.
The foods in people’s diets around the world are very different from each other, but all good diets
must be composed of a variety of different foods that provide all of the food energy and other
nutrients in the amounts needed. For most people, a good meal will be based on a starchy food,
sometimes referred to as a “staple” food, as it forms the basis or main portion of the meal, and a
variety of other foods (side dishes) that provide the additional protein, vitamins and minerals needed
for a good, healthy diet.
Staple foods are usually starchy carbohydrates such as rice, pasta, bread, couscous, maize (corn),
potatoes, and foods made from wheat, rice, rye, barley or oats. The other foods eaten with the meal
should include generous amounts of vegetables and fruits; good amounts of legumes; smaller
amounts of meat, poultry, eggs or fish and milk and milk products, such as cheese and yoghurt. The
greater the variety of side dishes served with the staple food, the greater the chance that all the
needed nutrients are included in the meal.

Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the
dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around
1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the
Norman invasion of 1030. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England
and had not extended even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the
next two centuries, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade
(including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English speakers
became established and grew in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated,
English gradually became the primary language of international business, banking, and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in
English. Two-thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main language of
technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers. Today there are
more than 700 million English users in the world, and over half of these are non-native speakers,
constituting the largest number of non-native users than any other language in the world.
28. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The expansion of English as an international language.
B. The French influence on the English language.
C. The number of non-native users of English.

railway network. A small sum of money is required to go from one corner of the country to another.

questions that follow
Education is another area of social life in which information technology is changing the way we
communicate. Today's college students may not simply sit in a lecture or a library to learn about their
field. Through their computers and the wonders of virtual reality, they can participate in lifelike simulated
experiences and consider the following scenario of the future of education made possible through
developments in information technology.
For children over the age of 10, daily attendance at schools is not compulsory. Yet, some of the older
children attend school only once or twice weekly to get tutorial support or instruction from a teacher. For
the most part, pupils are encouraged to work online from home. Students must complete a minimum
number of study hours per year; however, they may make up these hours by studying at home at times
that suit their family schedule. They can log on early or late in the day and even join live classes in other
58
countries. In order to ensure that each student is learning adequately, computer software will
automatically monitor the number of hours a week each student studies online as well as students’
learning materials and assessment activities. Reports will be available for parents and teachers. The
software can then identify the best learning activities and condition for each individual student and
generate similar activities. It can also identify areas of weak achievement and produce special programs
adjusted to the students' needs.
Question 28: What is the topic of the passage?
A. Students can know about their weak aspects to focus.
B. Computer software will make sure students learn at home.
C. Students don't have to go to school any more.

Question 29: How many times are children who are older than 10 required to go to
school weekly?
A. Once or twice B. No time C. Three D. Four
Question 30: The word “they” in the first paragraph refers to _____.
A. teachers B. developments
C. experiences D. college students
Question 31: What can’t the computer software do?
A. Find out the best activities for the students.
B. Monitor the time the students learn.
C. Design materials for the students.
D. Identify weaknesses of the students.
Question 32: What is NOT MENTIONED in the passage as a benefit of information
technology to the students?
A. Students can learn at times that suit their schedule.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions that follow.
Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the
best method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?
The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the
language all the time. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go.
Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. At home, it
is always possible to speak Vietnamese if you want to and the learning is slower.
On the other hand, there are also advantages to staying at home to study. You don’t have to
make big changes to your life. As well as this, it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is
never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher, I think you can
learn in a more concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school.
So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to
spend some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being at home is the
only viable option. The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximize your
opportunities: to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside
the class.

A. The best way to learn English

A. There are no Vietnamese people in Britain.
B. There are very good teachers of English there.

D. The language schools in the UK are always better.
30. What is one of the advantages of staying at home to learn English?
A. You have to work too hard to make money in Britain.
B. Your life can continue more or less as it was before.
C. You can concentrate on learning English only.
D. The teachers aren’t very good in Britain.

In the old days, Vietnamese roads were seen with bicycles and a few trucks. Now they
are full of a variety of vehicles. The Vietnamese carry a huge load of a variety of goods up to
over one hundred kilograms, especially during the war.
Time has gone by and fewer bikes are visible in the street. In big cities, many people
think that bicycles belong to the inferior classes and seem unfashionable. That is why people
often find it hard - psychologically and physically - to park their bikes when going to a
modern cafe or shopping malls.
Motorbikes are the main mode of transport in Viet Nam, with 24 million of them in a
country of 87 million people in 2009, one of the highest ratios in the world. More motorbikes
of all brands havedominated the road. The mobility which motorbikes provide is so crucial
to workers in big cities. Some youths try to show off with expensive motorbikes of famous
brands. Almost anything can be transported on a motorcycle. The loads include baskets of
fruits, tree trunks, live pigs, flocks of live ducks and stacked crates of raw eggs. Two thirds
of Viet Nam's population of 85 million are under 30, and the motorcycle has become the
center of youth culture.

Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes. It comes from
household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw
away. What can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment
by doing simple things.
First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again. Recycling can
also reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products. It takes very little effort. It is
77
not hard to place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin. Anyone can do it.
Second, we need to watch the amount of water used in the home. It can be conserved by taking
short showers instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine
only when fully loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.
Third, we need to reduce waste. We need to recycle whenever possible, but should also try to use
this waste effectively. For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for
plants. The average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount
by recycling and reusing.
