Much has been heard recently about possible health hazards, including memory loss and brain. throughout the world, in Britain today, one person in four owns one, (67).... is worrying enough, even if, so far, no concrete evidence (68)........ come to light. One study by Dr. Alan Preece and his team at Bristol University has shown, however, in a report in the International Journal of Radiation Biology, that tests on volunteers demonstrated no effect on (69)....... short-term memory or attention span. Subjects (70)... exposed to microwave radiation for up to thirty minutes, but the one noticeable effect was positive (71)...... than negative; the subject reacted more rapidly in one test to a visual choice. One explanation of this is that following the transmissions, a warming (72) ...... the blood led to increased blood flow. For the experiment, places were chosen where the signal was good and the microwave dose light, and then where the signal was poor and the dose much higher. The subjects were tested for recall and mental alertness after exposure (73)...... microwaves characteristic of analogue phones, digital phones or no phones at all, without knowing (74)..... they were exposed to.

Part 3: Read the following passage and choose the correct answer (A, B, C, or D) to each of the questions. (5 pts)
Today we take electricity for granted and perhaps we do not realize just how useful this discovery has been. Steam was the first invention that replaced wind power. It was used to drive engines and was passed through pipes and radiators to warm rooms. Petrol mixed with air was the next invention that provided power. Exploded in a cylinder, it drove a motor engine. Beyond these simple and direct uses, those forms have not much adaptability.
On the other hand, we make use of electricity in thousands of ways. From the powerful voltages that drive our electric trains to the tiny current needed to work a simple calculator, and from the huge electric magnet in steel works that can lift 10 tons to the tiny electric magnet in a doorbell, all are powered by electricity. An electric current can be made with equal ease to heat a huge mass of molten metal in a furnace, or to boil a jug for a cup of coffee. Other than atomic energy, which has not as yet been harnessed to the full, electricity is the greatest power in the world. It is flexible, and so adaptable for any task for which it is wanted. It travels so easily and with incredible speed along wires or conductors that it can be supplied instantly over vast distances. To generate electricity, huge turbines or generators must be turned. In Australia they use coal or water to drive this machinery. When dams are built, falling water is used to drive the turbines without polluting the atmosphere with smoke from coal. Atomic power is used in several countries but there is always the fear of an accident. A tragedy once occurred at Chernobyl, in Ukraine, at an atomic power plant used to make electricity. The reactor leaked, which caused many deaths through radiation.
Now scientists are examining new ways of creating electricity without harmful effects to the environment. They may harness the tides as they flow in and out of bays. Most importantly, they hope to trap sunlight more efficiently. We do use solar heaters for swimming pools but as yet improvement in the capacity of the solar
Trang 4/6
cells to create more current is necessary. When this happens, electric cars will be viable and the world will rid itself of the toxic gases given off by trucks and cars that burn fossil fuels.
76. The author mentions the sources of energy such as wind, steam, petrol in the first paragraph to .......... A. suggest that electricity should be alternated with safer sources of energy
B. show the usefulness and adaptability of electricity
C. imply that electricity is not the only useful source of energy
D. discuss which source of energy can be a suitable alternative to electricity
77. What does the author mean by saying that electricity is flexible?
A. It is cheap and easy to use. B. It is used to drive motor engines C. It can be adapted to various uses. D. It can be made with ease
78. What do we call machines that make electricity?
A. Voltages B. Electric magnets C. Generators or turbines D. Pipes and radiators. 79. The word "they" in the last paragraph refers to scientists
A. harmful B. effects C. the tides D. new ways 80. The best title for this passage could be
A. "Types of Power Plants" C. "How to Produce Electricity" B. "Electricity: Harmful Effects on Our Life" D. "Why Electricity Is So Remarkable"
