For thousands of years, the ancient art form of Feng Shui has played a major role in Chinese life. Feng Shui means ‘wind and water’ and it is based on an appreciation of the relationship between people and the environment. It involves c hanging the design of your living or working space to improve your fortune. For instance, soon after a Hong Kong millionaire moved his business to a new skyscraper, his busines s began to do very badly. He immediately called in Feng Shui experts. They told him that because his new office block was round, it was like a huge cigarette, and all the energy was burning off through the roof. They said that the only thing he could do to prevent this loss of energy was to build a swimming pool on the roof. The millionaire followed their advice, and his business immediately started to do well. I n recent years, Feng Shui has become popular in many western countries, where companies such as B&Q have started to seek advice from Feng Shui experts. Before his store was opened, Brian Ingliss, the manager of one of B & Q's st ores in Britain, consulted a Feng Shui expert. The expert advised him to create a lot of free space around the store. Brian followed t he advice, and within a year, the store was the most successful B&Q store in the country. 36.

Mozart, who was born on January 27, 1756 in the Austrian city of Salzburg, was neither the first nor the last child prodigy, but he was certainly the greatest. He was born into a moderately prosperous family where his unmatched musical genius made itself known extremely early. Mozart began learning to play the harpsichord at three and his earliest known work was composed in 1761 when he was five, the age at which he also first appeared in public. From the age of six, when his father took him on the first foreign tour, Mozart toured the courts and musical centres of Austria, Germany, France, England, Holland, Switzerland and Italy. It has been calculated that Mozart spent almost a third of his short life - he died at the age of 35 - travelling. As Mozart matured, he continued to tour and give concerts. Mozart also wrote a lot of operas. His first opera, Mitridate, Re di Ponto, was performed in Milan when he was 14, and it was the first of many successes in the theatre. 36.

The population is approximately nine million, and the capital city is Athens. High mountains with rich, fertile land between them cover northern Greece. The hilly southern part is a peninsula called the Peloponnesus. Hundreds of islands surround the mainland. The largest island is Crete. No part of the nation is far from water. The Ionian Sea and the Aegean Sea carved deep bays and gulfs into the long coastline. Greece has been a seafaring nation for centuries, and Greece is very well-known for its shipping industry. More than three thousand years ago, the Greek people developed a very sophisticated society. They had a great civilization, one of the greatest that the Western world has ever seen. Greek architecture, thinking, and art influenced other civilizations. Even the Greek language influenced other languages, including English. For example, the English words alphabet, democracy, and arithmetic come from Greek. Today Greece is one of the most popular nations with the tourists who visit Europe. Thousands of people are attracted to the country because of its beautiful scenery, magnificent an cient buildings, and its excellent summer weather. 5

But perhaps this kind of intuition isn't as hard to explain as it may seem. For instance, people give out body language signals all the time. The way you hold your body, head and arms tells people about your mood. If you hold your arms tightly at your sides, or fold them across your chest, people will generally feel that you are being defensive. Hold ing your head to one side shows interest in the other, while an easy, open posture indicates that you are self -confident. All this affects the way you feel about someone. Also, a stranger may remind you of a meeting with someone. This may be because of something as simple as the fact that he or she is physically similar to someone who treated you well or badly. Your feelings about a stranger could be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place where you were happy as a child. Since even a single word can bring back a memory such as that, you may never realize it is happening. Câu 46: What does the word "open" in the passage most closely mean? A. Unrestrained. B. Relaxed. C. Confined. D. Unlimited. Câu 47: What influences your impression of a person you meet the first time? A. Intuition. B. Familiarity. C. Knowledge. D. Feeling. Câu 48: What one feels about a stranger may be influenced by something that ________. A. strengthens one's past behaviours B. reminds one of one's past treatment C. revives one's past memories D. points to one's childhood Câu 49: What does the second paragraph discuss? B. Factors that may influence one's feelings about a stranger . A. Meanings of signals one implies towards a stranger. C. How people usually behave to a stranger. D. Factors that cause people to act differently. Câu 50: Intuition described in the passage can be explained by means of _________.

It was believed that in a free nation where the power belongs to the peop le, the commitment to education defines the progress of that democracy and is the catalyst for future progress. This core value has not only stood the test of time but has also grown in importance. In this new Information Era and international economy, education is an inc reasingly vital commodity, a precursor of potential success and a driving force of change. It is important to recognize, however, that we approach education today differently than in the past, partly because the kinds of jobs people had didn't require the kind of basic education and specialized training that is often required in the workforce today. In the 1950s, for instance, only 20 percent of American jobs were classified as professional, 20 percent as skilled, and 60 percent as unskilled. Today, our world has changed. The proportion of unskilled jobs has fallen to 20 percent, while skilled jobs now account for at least 60 percent of the workforce. Even more important, almost every job today increasingly requires a combination of academic knowledge and practical skills that require learning throughout a lifetime. Câu 51: Education is defined in this passage as a driving force of change because ______. A. without education, no changes could have happened in American society so far B. the government of the United States want to drive social changes in their own ways C. education has helped to bring about and orient most changes in the American workforce D. any American citizen who wants to change his driving licence must be very well-educated Câu 52: The passage shows the percentage of jobs that require higher training in the US _______ between the 1950s and now. A. has remained the same B. has changed dramatically C. has been reversed D. has changed slightly Câu 53: The phrase "enlightened individuals" in the first sentence most likely means "people who _______." A. always appear brilliant-looking in public B. have often been well-exposed to light C. have acquired an adequate level of education D. bring light to anywhere they go Câu 54: In order to become a good American citizen today, in the author's point of view, any individual must _______. A. know well all his/her rights and be ready to grasp his/her opportunity of success in life B. study carefully the history of American educational and vocational systems even since their creat ion C. understand thoroughly the combination of academic knowledge and practical skills D. move actively forward in the new Information Era and international economy with a prestigious dip loma Câu 55: Which of the following titles would be best for the passage? A. Education and Jobs in the Past and at Present in the United States B. The Significant Role of Education in American Citizens' Careers C.

Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected. 6
  7. Prepared by Nguyen Sy Chien Wednesday, June 29, 2011 The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, ther e has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health. O n the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often for get the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree. What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's be st to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.

Traditionally in America, helping the poor was a matter for private charities or local governments. Arriving immigrants depended mainly on predecessors from their homeland to help them start a new life. In the late 19th and early 20 th centuries, several European nations instituted public-welfare programs. But such a movement was slow to take hold in the U nited States because the rapid pace of industrialization and the ready availability of farmland seemed to confirm the belief that anyone who was willing to work could find a job. Most of the programs started during the Depression era were temporary relief measures, but one of th e programs - Social Security - has become an American institution. Paid for by deductions from the paychecks of working people, Social Security ensures that retired persons receive a modest monthly income and also provides unemployment insurance, disability insurance, and other assistance to those who need it. Social Security payments to retired persons can start at age 62, but many wait until age 65, when the payments are slightly higher. Recently, there has been concern that the Social Security fund may not have enough money to fulfill its obligations in the 21st century, when the population of elderly Americans is expected to increase dramatically. Policy makers have proposed various ways to make up the anticipated deficit, but a long-term solution is still being debated. I n the years since Roosevelt, other American presidents have established assistance programs. These include Medicaid and Medicare; food stamps, certificates that people can use to purchase food; and public housing which is built at f ederal expense and made available to persons on low incomes. N eedy Americans can also turn to sources other than the government for help. A broad spectrum of private charities and voluntary organizations is available. Volunteerism is on the rise in the United States, especially among retir ed persons. It is estimated that almost 50 percent of Americans over age 18 do volunteer work, and nearly 75 percent of U.S. households contribute money to charity. Câu 51: New immigrants to the U.S. could seek help from ______. A. the people who came earlier B. the US government agencies 7
