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, warn, and
instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human
thoughts and feelings.
Question 36: Which form other than oral speech would be the most commonly be the most commonly
used among blind people?

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.
In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas. North America and Europe,
recycling is big news. People are talking about it, practicing it , and discovering new ways to be sensitive
to the environment. Recycling means finding was to use products a second time. The belief of the
recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes
and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging:
usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things
that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy high-
quality products. When low- quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new
ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high- quality
appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way, if
a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the
manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the
bottles , wash them , and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved.
In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles.
The third step is being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and
used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same a mount of energy to make one
aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum
(for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.

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 43 to 50 .
It is hard to think of a world without gas or electricity. Both are commonly used for lighting and heating
today. We now can instantly flick a lighter or strike a match to make a flame. But it was not long ago that
there were no such things as matches or lighters. To make fire, it was necessary to strike a piece of iron on
flint for sparks to ignite some tinder. If the tinder was damp, or the flint old, you had to borrow some fire
from a neighbor.
We do not know exactly when or how people first used fire. Perhaps, many ages ago, they found that
sticks would burn if they were dropped into some hole where melted lava from a volcano lay boiling.
They brought the lighted sticks back to make their fire in a cave. Or, they may have seen trees catch fire
through being struck by lightning, and used the trees to start their own fires.
Gradually people learned they could start a fire without traveling far to find flames. They rubbed two
pieces of wood together. This method was used for thousands of years.
When people became used to making fires with which to cook food and stay warm at night, they found
that certain resins or gums from trees burnt longer and brighter. They melted resins and dipped branches
in the liquid to make torches that lit their homes at night. Iron stands in which torches used to be fixed can
still be seen in old buildings of Europe.
There was no lighting in city streets until gas lamps, and then electric lamps were installed. Boys ran
about London at night carrying torches of burning material. They were called torch boys, or link boys, and
earned a living by guiding visitors to friends houses at night.
For centuries homes were lit by candles until oil was found. Even then, oil lamps were no more
effective than a cluster of candles. We read about the splendors and marvels of ancient palaces and castles,
but we forget that they must have been gloomy and murky places at night.
Question 43: What does they refer to?
A. people B. ages C. sticks D. trees
Question 44: According to the passage the first fire used by people was probably obtained ______.
A. from the suns heat through glass B. by rubbing wood together
C. from heat or fire caused by nature D. by striking iron against flint
Question 45: It is stated in the passage that torches for lighting were made from ______.
A. the wood of gum trees B. iron bars dipped in melted resins
C. wooden poles dipped in oil D. tree branches dipped in melted resins
Question 46: It is mentioned in the passage that before the electric lamp was invented, ______________
. A. oil lamps and then candles were used
B. candles and oil lamps appeared about the same time
C. candles and then oil lamps were used
D. people did not use any form of lighting in their houses
Question 47: The word splendors in the passage could be best replaced by which of the following?
A. expensive objects B. places of scenic beauty
C. achievements D. the beautiful and impressive features

A. We know exactly when and how people first used fire.
B. Before gas lamps and electric lamps appeared, streets were lit by torches.
C. We can make a fire by striking a piece of iron on flint to ignite some tinder.
D. Matches and lighters were invented not long ago.
Question 49: The word gloomy in the passage is closest in meaning to __________ .
A. nearly dark B. badly decorated C. containing a lot of white D. mysterious

The Stone Age was a period of history which began in approximately 2 million B.C. and lasted until
3000 B.C. Its name was derived from the stone tools and weapons that modern scientists found. This
period was divided into the Paleolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic Ages. During the first period (2 million
to 8000 B.C.), the first hatchet and use of fire for heating and cooking were developed. As a result of the
Ice Age, which evolved about 1 million years into the Paleolithic Age, people were forced to seek shelter
in caves, wear clothing, and develop new tools.
During the Mesolithic Age (8000 to 6000 B.C.), people made crude pottery and the first fish hooks, took
dogs hunting, and developed the bow and arrow, which were used until the fourteenth century A.D.
The Neolithic Age (6000 to 3000 B.C.) saw humankind domesticating sheep, goats, pigs and cattle, being
less nomadic than in previous eras, establishing permanent settlements, and creating governments.

correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.
Have you ever thought about the names of the months? Why are January and February not called
Primo or Secondo? Is it because the original names were created in ancient times? Or is it because the
originators preferred odd words?
Take February, for example. Say it aloud a few minutes and you start to wonder. Most people dont
know who developed these names. However, a little research reveals that the names of the months came
mostly from a combination of the names of Roman gods and goddesses, important festivals, and the original
numbers of the months.
Julius Caesar and Pope Gregory XIII change the calendar to make it more exact. Caesar developed
a new calendar of 364 and a quarter days, the time it takes the earth to orbit the sun from one spring season
to the next. The Popes astronomers refined the calendar regarding leap years; they determined that there
should be no leap year in years ending in 00- unless they were divisible by 400; the years 1700, 1800, 1900
and 2100 would not be considered leap years, while the years 1600 and 2000 would be. This new Gregorian
calendar was so accurate that today, scientists need only add leap seconds every few years to the clock in
order to keep the calendar matching the Earths cycles.
Question 43: What is the topic of the passage?
A. how the modern calendar was named and developed
B. how the months were named
C. how the leap year system was developed

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. In vesting the time
and effort to thoroughly explore your options can mean the difference between finding a stimulating and
rewarding career 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 not 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 increased along
with your experience, additional training, promotions and commission.
Dont 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 you get mature, you will
likely to develop new interests and skills that may point the way to new opportunities. The choice you
make today need not to be your final one.
Question 36: The author states that There are no right or wrong answers in order to _________ .

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 43 to 50.
The Winterthur Museum is a collection and a house. There are many museums devoted to the decorative
arts and many house museums, but rarely in the United States is a great collection displayed in a great
country house. Passing through successive generations of a single family, Winterthur has been a private
estate for more than a century. Even after the extensive renovations made to it between 1929 and 1931, the
house remained a family residence. This fact is of importance to the atmosphere and effect of the museum.
The impression of a lived-in house is apparent to the visitor: the rooms look as if they were vacated
only a short while ago whether by the original owners of the furniture or the most recent residents of the
house can be a matter of personal interpretation. Winterthur remains, then, a house in which a collection
of furniture and architectural elements has been assembled. Like an English country house, it is an
organic structure; the house, as well as the collection and manner of displaying it to the visitor, has
changed over the years. The changes have coincided with developing concepts of the American arts,
increased knowledge on the part of collectors and students, and a progression toward the achievement of a
historical effect in period-room displays. The rooms as Winterthur have followed this current, yet still
retained the character of a private house.
The concept of a period room as a display technique has developed gradually over the years in an
effort to present works of art in a context that would show them to greater effect and would give them
more meaning for the viewer. Comparable to the habitat group in a natural history museum, the period
room represents the decorative arts in a lively and interesting manner and provides an opportunity to
assemble objects related by style, date, or place of manufacture.
Question 43: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Historical furniture contained in Winterthur.
B. How Winterthur compares to English country houses.
C. Elements that make Winterthur an unusual museum.
D. The reason that Winterthur was redesigned.
Question 44: The phrase devote to in line 1 is closest in meaning to ___________.

Question 45: What happened at Winterthur between 1929 and 1931?
A. The old furniture was replaced B. The estate became a museum
C. The owners moved out D. The house was repaired
Question 46: What does the author mean by stating the impression of a lived in house is apparent
to the visitor?
A. Few people visit Winterthur.
B. The furniture at Winterthur looks comfortable.
C. Winterthur does not look like a typical museum.

Since its birth in the middle of the 19th century, the womens rights movement has taken root and spread
throughout the world. In many countries women have fought for the right to vote, the right to work, the right
to be educated to the limit of their capacities, the right to own and dispose of property, and for equal rights
62
TL ON THI TN 2016-2017

within marriage. The cause has penetrated world governments via the United Nations which in 1946 set up
a special commission to study the worldwide status of women and make recommendations to the Social and
Economic Council on ways of improving it. UNESCO too assists in the advancement of women by seeking
top involve them in educational and cultural programs.
In addition, a multitude of womens organizations exist in individual countries to further, at national and
international levels, the eradication of remaining areas of discrimination. Through their affiliation with
international feminist bodies, they are in touch with womens activities and achievements in all parts of the
world.
However, with half the worlds population still illiterate - most of them women - there is great disparity in
what has been, and has still to be achieved. At one end of the scale, womens rights workers are still pressing
for elementary education; at the other, for the removal of early protective legislation which is now felt to
be discriminatory because it denied women certain freedoms: for example, the right to do night work if they
so choose. Nevertheless, despite the fact that the womens movement has progressed unevenly and with
varying success, women are beginning to take their place beside men as free and equal citizens.
Wherever they have been granted the opportunity, women have demonstrated their ability to compete on
equal terms with men. In time of war they have taken over from them in almost every sphere, building a
record of distinguished service which has proved for all time that the power behind the throne is no less
capable of ruling from it, and also that the hand rocking the cradle is equally at home manufacturing it.
Question 36: According to the passage, the womens rights movement aims at fighting for the basic rights

The UN Environment Program says that rising temperatures could mean the end for some migrating animals.
Migrating or mobile animals move through several environments as they travel away from the cold of winter
63
TL ON THI TN 2016-2017

to warmer areas. Birds may fly from one part of the world to another, perhaps stopping at feeding grounds
on the way. Whales and turtles cover vast areas of ocean. The report says that changes in any one of the
places which these animals use can cause serious harm. Obviously these animals have developed their
travelling patterns over thousands of years. But climate change is almost certain to be extreme over the next
25 to 50 years and it is extremely unlikely that these animals can change their habits fast enough, said the
report author Dr. Robert Hepworth.
Hardest hit by rising temperatures are turtles. Scientists have found that at higher temperatures, turtles
produce far more female eggs than male ones. In parts of Malaysia, turtle birthing sites are producing only
females, the report says. It also provides evidence that some turtles are more likely to develop cancer as the
waters get warmer.
With birds, the main problem is climate-related damage to important areas at either end of the travels or at
resting places along the way. About one-fifth of migrating birds are now in jeopardy because of climate-
related changes including rising sea levels, land loss and more violent storms, the report concludes.
Other animals picked out as particularly in danger include:
the North Atlantic Right Whale, whose main food (tiny shrimp) is disturbed by the change in ocean flows.
the White-Nose Dolphin, which is out-competed by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters.
The report is not all bad news. Even with major climatic changes, protecting the environment can still help
mobile animals to recover. We need governments to start taking action at the national and international
level. The clock is running, said Dr. Hepworth. And some animals are already adapting, with the report
mentioning whales that are changing their feeding behavior, finding new feeding grounds and new foods to
eat.
Question 43: According to Dr. Robert Hepworth, we can learn that _______.
A. Migratory species need to change patterns of living before they make their own migration.
B. Most animals will not be able to evolve quickly enough to adapt to abrupt climate change.
C. Most animals should find a more favorable growing conditions to survive due to climate change.
D. It may be possible to predict changes in species migratory patterns in response to future changes in
climate.
Question 44: According to the report, how will global warming affect turtles in the future?
A. They will only produce female babies.
B. Their food supply will gradually disappear.
C. Some will suffer from higher rates of cancer.
D. They will be in greater danger because of more violent storms.
Question 45: What does the phrase in jeopardy in the passage mean?
A. experiencing a period of failure B. temporarily losing the temper
C. likely to be damaged or destroyed D. spreading all over like wildfire
Question 46: According to the passage, which of the following is true about the migrating animals?
A. The majority of migratory species move only a short distance.
B. Birds devote most of the migration period to foraging.
C. The UN actually takes more responsibility for the migrating animals.
D. Migration is a great strategy to avoid cold weather.
Question 47: Which of the following is mentioned as a consequence of rising temperatures?
A. More storms will affect the ability of whales to find their feeding grounds.
B. 20 percent of all birds are likely to die out because of land loss.
C. Migrating animals are likely to start adapting to the changes more quickly.
D. Warmer oceans will increase the competition between different kinds of dolphins.
Question 48: What can be inferred about turtles from the text?
A. They are the only animals besides humans that suffer from cancer.
B. Those born nearer a hotter area are more likely to be female.
C. Most kinds of turtles are likely to die out within 50 years.
