II. Read the following passage carefully, then choose the <\/span>ONE <\/span>best answer to each question. <\/span>Water scarcity is fast becoming one of the major limiting factors in world crop production. In many areas, poor agricultural practices have led to increasing desertification and the loss of formerly arable lands. Consequently, those plants species that are well adapted to survival in dry climates are being looked at for an answer in developing more efficient crops to grow on marginally arable lands. Plants uses several mechanisms to ensure their survival in desert environments. Some involve purely mechanical and physical adaptations, such as the shape of the plant\u2019s surface, smaller leaf size, and extensive root <\/span>systems<\/span>. Some of the adaptations are related to chemical mechanisms. Many plants, such as cacti, have internal gums and mucilages which give them water-retaining properties. Another chemical mechanism is that of the epicuticular wax layer. This wax layer acts as an impervious cover to protect the plant. It prevents excessive loss of internal moisture. <\/span>It <\/span>also protects the plant from external aggression, which can come from inorganic agents such as gases, or organic agents which include bacteria ant plant pets. <\/span><\/p>

Researchers have proposed that synthetic waxes with similar protective abilities could be prepared based on knowledge of desert plants. If successfully developed, such a compound could be used to greatly increase a plant\u2019s ability to maintain health in such adverse situations as inadequate water supply, limited fertilizers availability, attacked by pets, and poor storage after harvesting. <\/span><\/p>

C. The vast leaf size D. The high water system <\/span><\/p>

64. <\/span>The word \u201cextensive\u201d is closest in meaning to <\/span><\/p>

A. spongy B. shallow C. widespread D. comprehensive 65. <\/span>Which is one of the ways in which the epicuticular wax protects the plant? <\/span><\/p>

A. It helps the plant to avoid excessive moisture intake B. It helps the plant to attack aggressors. <\/span><\/p>

II. Read the following passages carefully, then choose the <\/span>ONE <\/span>best answer to each question  <\/span>Water scarcity is fast becoming one of the major limiting factors in world crop production. In many areas, poor agricultural practices have led to increasing desertification and the loss of formerly arable <\/span><\/p>

http:\/\/kinhhoa.violet.vn <\/span>10<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>

lands. Consequently, those plants species that are well adapted to survival in dry climates are being looked at for an answer in developing more efficient crops to grow on marginally arable lands. Plants uses several mechanisms to ensure their survival in desert environments. Some involve purely mechanical and physical adaptations, such as the shape of the plant\u2019s surface, smaller leaf size, and extensive root <\/span>systems<\/span>. Some of the adaptations are related to chemical mechanisms. Many plants, such as cacti, have internal gums and mucilages which give them water-retaining properties. Another chemical mechanism is that of the epicuticular wax layer. This wax layer acts as an impervious cover to protect the plant. It prevents excessive loss of internal moisture. <\/span>It <\/span>also protects the plant from external aggression, which can come from inorganic agents such as gases, or organic agents which include bacteria ant plant pets. <\/span><\/p>

Researchers have proposed that synthetic waxes with similar protective abilities could be prepared based on knowledge of desert plants. If successfully developed, such a compound could be used to greatly increase a plant\u2019s ability to maintain health in such adverse situations as inadequate water supply, limited fertilizers availability, attacked by pets, and poor storage after harvesting. <\/span><\/p>

II. Read the following passages carefully, then choose the <\/span>ONE <\/span>best answer to each question (10  points) <\/span><\/p>

Supernovas are the most powerful and spectacular outbursts known in nature. What is called a Type  II supernova is due to the collapse of a massive star, at least eight times as massive as the sun, that has  used up its main nuclear fuel and produced a nickel-iron core. When this core can no longer support the  pressure of the star\u2019s outer layer, it collapses to form a neutron star of immense density. Over 2,500  million tons of neutron star packed into a matchbox. Its temperature is around 100,000 million degrees  centigrade. Multitudes of neutrons are produced in the collapsed star, which pass directly through the star  into space, and this release of neutrons causes the core to respond with a shock wave that moves outward.  When <\/span>it <\/span>meets the material that is falling inward, the result is a catastrophic explosion. Sometimes most  of the star\u2019s material is blown away, leaving only a small, incredibly dense remnant that may be a neutron star or, in extreme cases, a black hole. <\/span><\/p>

A supernova is often more than 500 million times as luminous as the sun. A supernova remnant  (SNR) may be <\/span>detectable <\/span>as a pulsar, an example of which is the Crab Nebula, known to be a <\/span>remnant <\/span>of  the supernova observed in the year 1054. The 1987 supernova in the Large Cloud of Magellan had a low  peak luminosity by supernova standards, only about 250 million times that of the sun. As its brightest the  supernova shone as a star between magnitudes 2 and 3, even though it was 170,000 light-years away. <\/span><\/p>

Do you think computer games are just for kids? Then you should think again. You might be surprised to  learn that the games industry now makes more money than Hollywood. (51) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026. A family buy a  new PC, all they really want to do is to play games. <\/span><\/p>

It is (52) \u2026\u2026\u2026surprising that video gaming has become one of the most popular (53) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026 of  entertainment today. A good game is like a good film; it will hold your (54) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026, (55) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026  your imagination and play with your emotions. <\/span><\/p>

The big difference, however, is that watching a movie is a passive (56) \u2026. You have no say in how the  (57) \u2026\u2026 develops or which characters dominate the story. With computer games, you direct the action  and that is (58) \u2026\u2026. makes them so exciting.

    II. Read the following passages carefully, then choose the <\/span>ONE <\/span>best answer to each question (10  points) <\/span><\/p>

    Supernovas are the most powerful and spectacular outbursts known in nature. What is called a Type II  supernova is due to the collapse of a massive star, at least eight times as massive as the sun, that has used  up its main nuclear fuel and produced a nickel-iron core. When this core can no longer support the  pressure of the star\u2019s outer layer, it collapses to form a neutron star of immense density. Over 2,500  million tons of neutron star packed into a matchbox. Its temperature is around 100,000 million degrees  centigrade. Multitudes of neutrons are produced in the collapsed star, which pass directly through the star  into space, and this release of neutrons causes the core to respond with a shock wave that moves outward.  When <\/span>it <\/span>meets the material that is falling inward, the result is a catastrophic explosion. Sometimes most  of the star\u2019s material is blown away, leaving only a small, incredibly dense remnant that may be a neutron star or, in extreme cases, a black hole. <\/span><\/p>

    A supernova is often more than 500 million times as luminous as the sun. A supernova remnant (SNR)  may be <\/span>detectable <\/span>as a pulsar, an example of which is the Crab Nebula, known to be a <\/span>remnant <\/span>of the  supernova observed in the year 1054. The 1987 supernova in the Large Cloud of Magellan had a low peak luminosity by supernova standards, only about 250 million times that of the sun. As its brightest the  supernova shone as a star between magnitudes 2 and 3, even though it was 170,000 light-years away. <\/span><\/p>

    II. Read the following passages carefully, then choose the <\/span>ONE <\/span>best answer to each question (10  points) <\/span><\/p>

     <\/span>The principle of use and disuse states that those parts of organisms\u2019 bodies that are used grow larger.  Those parts that are not tend to <\/span>whither away<\/span>. It is an observed fact that when you exercise particular  muscles, they grow. <\/span>Those <\/span>that are never used diminish. By examining a man\u2019s body, we can tell which  muscles he uses and which he does not. We may even be able to guess his profession or his recreation.  Enthusiasts of \u201cbody-building\u201d cult make use of the principle of use and disuse to build their bodies,  almost like a piece of sculpture, into whatever unnatural shape is demanded by fashion in this peculiar  minority culture. Muscles are not the only parts of the body that respond to use in this kind of way. Walk  barefoot and you acquire harder skin on your soles. It is easy to tell a farmer from a bank teller by looking at their hands alone. The farmer\u2019s hands are <\/span>horny<\/span>, hardened by long exposure to rough work. The  teller\u2019s hands are relatively soft. The principle of use and disuse enable animals to become better at the  job of surviving in their world, progressively better during their lifetime as a result of living in that world. Humans, through direct exposure to sun light, or lack of it, develop a skin color which equips them better  to survive in the particular local conditions. Too much sunlight is dangerous. Enthusiastic sunbathers with very fair skins are susceptible to skin cancer. Too little sunlight, on the other hand, leads to vitamin-D  deficiency and rickets. The brown pigment melanin which is synthesized under the influence of sunlight  make a screen to protect the underlying tissues from the harmful effects of further sunlight. If a suntanned person moves to a less sunny climate, the melanin disappears, and the body is able to benefit from what  little sun there is. This can be represented as an instance of the principle use and disuse: skin goes brown  when it is used, and fades to white when it is not. <\/span><\/p>

    Foot racing is a popular <\/span>activity <\/span>in the United States. It is seen not only as a competitive sport but also as a way to exercise, to enjoy the <\/span>camaraderie <\/span>of like-minded people, and to donate money <\/span>to a good cause<\/span>. Though serious runners may spend months training to compete, other runners and walkers might not train at all. Those not competing to win might run in an effort to <\/span>beat <\/span>their own time or simply to enjoy the fun and exercise. People of all ages, from those of less than one year (who may be pushed in <\/span>strollers) <\/span>to those in their eighties, enter into this sport. The races are held on city streets, on college campuses, through parks, and in suburban areas, and they are commonly 5 to 10 kilometers in length.  <\/span><\/p>

    The largest footrace in the world is the 12-kilometer Bay to Breakers race that is held in San Francisco every spring. This race begins on the east side of the city near San Francisco Bay and ends on the west side at the Pacific Ocean. There may be 80,000 or more people running in this race through the streets and hills of San Francisco. In the front are the serious runners who compete to win and who might finish in as little as 34 minutes. Behind them are the thousands who take several hours to finish. In the back of the race are those who dress in costumes and come just for fun. One year there was a group of men who dressed like Elvis Presley, and another group consisted of firefighters who were tied together in a long line and who were carrying a fire hose. There was even a bridal party, in which the bride was dressed in a long white gown and the groom wore a tuxedo. The bride and groom threw flowers to bystanders, and they were actually married at some point along the route. <\/span><\/p>\n

    (1)\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026. of the garbage we produce everyday is a major problem in cities around the world. In  the United States, over 160 million tons of garbage are produced every year. Ten per cent is recycled,  the per cent is burned, and the rest is put in landfills. But finding (2) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.for new landfills is  becoming more difficult. A city that has solved this problem in an unusual way is Michida, in Tokyo,  Japan. They have developed a totally new (3) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026to garbage disposal.

    As heart disease continues to be the number-one killer in the United States, researchers have  become increasingly interested in identifying the potential risk factors that trigger heart attacks. High-fat  <\/span><\/p>

    http:\/\/kinhhoa.violet.vn <\/span>48<\/span><\/p>

    diets and “life in the fast lane” have long been known to contribute to the high incidence of heart failure.  But according to new studies, the list of risk factors may be significantly longer and quite surprising.  Heart failure, for example, appears to have seasonal and temporal patterns. A higher percentage of  heart attacks occur in cold weather, and more people experience heart failure on Monday than on any  other day of the week. In addition, people are more susceptible to heart attacks in the first few hours after  waking. Cardiologists first observed this morning phenomenon in the mid-1980, and have since  discovered a number of possible causes. An early-morning rise in blood pressure, heart rate, and  concentration of heart stimulating hormones, plus a reduction of blood flow to the heart, may all  contribute to the higher incidence of heart attacks between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 10:00 A.M.  In other studies, both birthdays and bachelorhood have been implicated as risk factors. Statistics  reveal that heart attack rates increase significantly for both females and males in the few days  immediately preceding and following their birthdays. And unmarried men are more at risk for heart  attacks than their married counterparts. Though stress is thought to be linked in some way to all of the  aforementioned risk factors, intense research continues in the hope of further comprehending why and  how heart failure is triggered. <\/span><\/p>

     <\/span>It is the nature of athletic records that they are broken and their place is taken by others. Yet many in  sports (1)\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026., there is a mark which is not significant in itself, but which becomes a legend as  athletes (2)\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026 to break it. The most public of these is the attempt to run a mile in less than four  minutes. <\/span><\/p>

    In 1945, the mile record was broken down to four minutes, 1.5 seconds. And there, for nine years, it  stuck. Then, in 1954, a medical student (3)\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.. Roger Bannister decided to try and break the  record. He had been (4) \u2026\u2026\u2026.. for this day since running the mile in 4 minutes, 2 seconds the (5) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.year. <\/span><\/p>

    Two other runners set the pace for him and in 250 yards to go he burst ahead for the finish. He wrote (6) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..: \u2018 My body had exhausted all its energy, but it (7)\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026 on running the same\u2026.

    Bannister\u2019s time was three minutes, 59.4 seconds. (9) \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026. This record has been broken on many  (10)\u2026\u2026\u2026. since, Bannister\u2019s achievement will never be forgotten. <\/span><\/p>

    II. Read the following passage carefully, then choose the <\/span>ONE <\/span>best answer to each question (10  points<\/span>) <\/span><\/p>

    The air above our head is becoming cleaner. A breath of fresh air has been running right round the planet for the past five years.. The planet is <\/span>purging <\/span>itself of pollution. Paul Novell of the University of Colorado, the co-author of a report on this phenomenon says, “It seems as if the planet’s own cleansing service has suddenly got a new lease of life. Suddenly, there are a lot of changes going on up there.” <\/span><\/p>

    http:\/\/kinhhoa.violet.vn <\/span>54<\/span><\/p>

    Estimates of the death <\/span>toll <\/span>f<\/span>rom urban smogs have been steadily rising, so the new cleaner trend could have significant consequences for life expectancy in cities as well as for the planet itself. The sudden and unexpected reversal of several decades of worsening pollution extends from the air in city streets to the remotest mid-Pacific Ocean and Antarctica. Among the pollutants which have begun to disappear from the atmosphere are carbon monoxide, from car exhausts and burning rain forests, and methane from the guts of cattle, paddy fields and gas fields. Even carbon dioxide, the main gas behind global warming, has fallen slightly. There are two theories about why pollution is disappearing. First, there is less pollution to start with due to laws to cut down urban smog and acid rain starting to have a global impact. Second the planet may be becoming more efficient at cleaning up. The main planetary clean-up agent is a chemical called hydroxyl. <\/span>It <\/span>is present throughout the atmosphere in tiny quantities and removes most pollutants from the air by oxidizing them. The amount of hydroxyl in the air had fallen by a quarter in the 1980’s. Now, it may be <\/span>reviving <\/span>for two reasons: because the ozone hole has expanded, letting in more ultraviolet radiation into the lower atmosphere, where it manufactures hydroxyl. Then the stricter controls of vehicle exhausts in America and Europe may have cut global carbon monoxide emissions, thereby allowing more hydroxyl to clean up other pollutants. <\/span><\/p>

    II. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the best answer to each of  the following questions.  <\/span><\/p>

     <\/span>Animation traditionally is done by hand-drawing or painting successive frames of an object, each  slightly different than the preceding frame. In computer animation, although the computer may be the one to draw the different frames, in most cases the artist will draw the beginning and ending frames and the  computer will produce the drawings between the first and the last drawing. This is generally referred to as computer-assisted animation, because the computer is more of a helper than an originator.   In full computer animation, complex mathematical formulas are used to produce the final sequence of  pictures.  <\/span><\/p>

    These formulas operate on extensive databases of numbers that define the objects in the pictures as <\/span>they <\/span>exist in mathematical space. The database consists of endpoints, and color and intensity information.  Highly trained professionals are needed to produce such effects because animation that obtains high  degrees of realism involves computer techniques for three-dimensional transform<\/span><\/p>\n

    ation, shading, and  curvatures.  <\/span><\/p>

     High-tech computer animation for film involves very expensive computer systems along with special  color terminals or frame buffers. The frame buffer is nothing more than a giant image memory for  viewing a single frame. It temporarily holds the image for display on the screen.   A camera can be used to film directly from the computer’s display screen, but for the highest quality  images possible, expensive film recorders are used. The computer computes the positions and colors for  the figures in the picture, and sends this information to the recorder, which <\/span>captures <\/span>it on film.  <\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/span><\/p>

    Sometimes, however, the images are stored on a large magnetic disk before being sent to the recorder.  <\/span>Once <\/span>this process is completed, it is repeated for the next frame. When the entire sequence has been  recorded on the film, the film must be developed before the animation can be viewed. If the entire  sequence does not seem right, the motions must be corrected, recomputed, redisplayed, and rerecorded.  This approach can be very expensive and time consuming. Often, computer-animation companies first do  motion tests with simple computer-generated line drawings before selling their computers to the <\/span>task <\/span>of  calculating the high-resolution, realistic-looking images.  <\/span><\/p>

    For many years, scientists have speculated that the cataclysmic impact of ail asteroid with the  earth was responsible for the demise of the dinosaurs approximately 65 million years ago. Previous  discoveries and results have <\/span>hinted <\/span>that an asteroid two kilometres in diameter struck the Yucatan  peninsula in Eastern Mexico. This impact, stronger than one thousand nuclear explosions, is speculated  to have <\/span>cast <\/span>a cloud of dust and debris into the atmosphere, covering the entire surface of the earth and  blocking out the sun and consequently lowering the surface temperature of the earth. With such a radical  change in the earth environment, scientists believe that over 99% of all animal and plant species were  eradicated. Only after millions of years did plants and animals ever begin to recover. But the reign of the  dinosaurs had ended and the age of mammals had begun. <\/span><\/p>

    The crucial link that has his theory together has been the element iridium. Iridium is not  commonly found on either the surface of the earth or inside the crust. <\/span>It <\/span>is more commonly found in  asteroids or meteorites through out the solar system. Scientists have hypothesized that after the asteroid  impacted the earth, an even layer of iridium sediment settled over the globe and eventually became part of its surface. The theory of course, has depended on the discovery of such an existing layer of iridium. <\/span><\/p>

    Unfortunately, scientists have never been able to offer absolute proof that this asteroid impact ever occurred. Recently, however, a discovery may go a long way toward validating these scientists\u2019 theories.  In 1996, a team of marine biologists excavated samples of rock from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean just  off the coat of Bermuda. Found thousands of meters below the sea, these samples contain iridium similar  to those found in the Yucatan peninsular thousands kilometers away. At first, scientists were skeptical  whether the samples were from the same time period. But since carbon dating placed them to 65 million  years ago, they doubts were quickly alleviated. Since then many of the other theories for the demise of the dinosaur have been finally laid to rest. <\/span><\/p>

    II. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the best answer to each of  the following questions. (10 pts) <\/span><\/p>

    For many years, scientists have speculated that the cataclysmic impact of ail asteroid with the  earth was responsible for the demise of the dinosaurs approximately 65 million years ago. Previous  discoveries and results have <\/span>hinted <\/span>that an asteroid two kilometres in diameter struck the Yucatan  peninsula in Eastern Mexico. This impact, stronger than one thousand nuclear explosions, is speculated  to have <\/span>cast <\/span>a cloud of dust and debris into the atmosphere, covering the entire surface of the earth and  blocking out the sun and consequently lowering the surface temperature of the earth. With such a radical  change in the earth environment, scientists believe that over 99% of all animal and plant species were  <\/span><\/p>

    http:\/\/kinhhoa.violet.vn <\/span>75<\/span><\/p>

    eradicated. Only after millions of years did plants and animals ever begin to recover. But the reign of the  dinosaurs had ended and the age of mammals had begun. <\/span><\/p>

    The crucial link that has his theory together has been the element iridium. Iridium is not  commonly found on either the surface of the earth or inside the crust. <\/span>It <\/span>is more commonly found in  asteroids or meteorites through out the solar system. Scientists have hypothesized that after the asteroid  impacted the earth, an even layer of iridium sediment settled over the globe and eventually became part of its surface. The theory of course, has depended on the discovery of such an existing layer of iridium. <\/span><\/p>

    Unfortunately, scientists have never been able to offer absolute proof that this asteroid impact ever occurred. Recently, however, a discovery may go a long way toward validating these scientists\u2019 theories.  In 1996, a team of marine biologists excavated samples of rock from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean just  off the coat of Bermuda. Found thousands of meters below the sea, these samples contain iridium similar  to those found in the Yucatan peninsular thousands kilometers away. At first, scientists were skeptical  whether the samples were from the same time period. But since carbon dating placed them to 65 million  years ago, they doubts were quickly alleviated. Since then many of the other theories for the demise of the dinosaur have been finally laid to rest. <\/span><\/p>
