ĐỀ SỐ 2

Read the passage and choose the best answer for each question.( 2đ)

Computer programmer David Jones earns £ 35, 000 a year designing new computer games, yet he can't find a bank prepared to let him have a cheque card. Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18.

The 16-year-old boy works for a firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David's firm releases two new games for the expanding home computer market each month.

But David's highest headache is what to do with his money. Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programs within tight schedules, with bonus payments and profit-sharing, he can't drive a car, take out a mortage, or obtain credit cards. He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus driver. His company has to pay £150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work and back every day because David can't drive.

David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop." I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs," he said. David added:" I would like to earn a million and suppose early retirement is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear,"

1. Why is David different from other young people at his age?

A. Because he lives at home with his parents. B. Because he isn't unemployed

C. Because he earns an extremely high salary. D. Because he doesn't go out much.

2. David's greatest problem is ……………………

A. making the bank treat him as an adult. B. spending his salary.

4. He left school after taking O-levels because ……………………….

A. he wanted to earn a lot of money.

B. he was afraid of getting too old to start computing.

C. he didn't enjoy school

Đọc đoạn trích và trả lời câu hỏi

Sometimes people add to what they say even when they don't talk. Ges­tures are the "silent language" of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood. In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other's arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.

Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say, "Pardon me." or "Excuse me." Americans like to look the other person in the eyes when they are talking. If you don't do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you are stare at someone, it is not polite. For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good, or well done. Thumbs down means the opposite. To call a waiter, raise one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a move­ment with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger. Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them. Learning a culture's body language is sometimes confusing. If you don't know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.

36. From the passage we can learn that •

a. gestures don't mean anything while talking

b. gestures can help us to express ourselves

c. American people often use body language in communication

d. It's confusing to understand a culture's body language

37. If you are introduced to a stranger from the USA, you should .

a. greet him with a hug b. place a hand on his shoulder

c. shake his hand weakly d. shake his hand firmly

38 American people often .

a. show their friendship by touching each other

b. face each other directly when they are talking

c. say "Pardon me." to each other when they are talking

d. get uncomfortable when you stand or sit too close to them

39. When your friend give you a thumbs-up, he, in fact, .

a. shows his rudeness to you b. shows his anger to you

c. expresses his satisfaction to you d. expresses his worries about you

40 Which of the following is NOT true about the culture of the United States?
a. It's impolite to look the other person in the eyes while talking.

b. It's rude to look at the other person for a long time.

c. Pointing at someone is usually considered rude.

d. It's all right to raise your hand slightly when you want to attract the
waiter's attention.

In the future, maybe all cars that run on petrol will be replaced by solar cars, which have been around for a while, but with recent developments in solar car design and the measurement of photovoltaic cells becoming smaller, the dream of a truly efficient solar car is more reality than fantasy. A solar car is a vehicle powered by photovoltaic cells, also called solar cells, which convert sunlight (light energy) into electrical energy. As a source of energy on earth, there is nothing like the sun: in a mere one thousandth of one second (.001), the sun emits enough energy to fulfill our planet's energy needs for the next 5,000 years. It is a staggering fact, and an exciting one. Since the energy from the sun is responsible for renewable resources such as wind, tides, and heat, solar energy seems to offer the brightest future for not only cars, but for the entire energy crisis. Despite the appearance that solar energy may be the least feasible among the current crop of alternative fuel propositions, new solar powered devices and more specifically solar powered cars are beginning to be developed. How do Solar. Cars work?

The photo-voltaic cells absorb photons from sunlight. This action generates heat, which the cells then convert into electrical energy and stores in an on-board battery. This process of conversion is called the photovoltaic effect. Not surprisingly, such a vehicle has zero emissions, and is very environmentally friendly. Unfortunately, at the moment photovoltaic cells are extremely inefficient, yet as time progresses the efficiency of these cells will grow. This will make solar energy and solar cars the fuel and car of the future-a closer reality.

41.According to the text, _______.

A. up to now, we have designed some solar cars B. solar cars have been very .popular for many years

C. we have not produced any solar cars yet D. solar cars are not as much appreciated as other kinds of car

42. A solar car is supplied power from _______.

A. gas B. petrol C. photovoltaic cells D. electricity

42. Which can not help us to solve the problem of energy crisis?

A. wind B. tide C. the sun D. heat from the moon

42. According to the text, _______

A. no powered solar devices have been developed so far

B. besides solar car, we have also developed solar powered device

C. solar energy plans are more feasible than wind energy plans

D. tide can supply more energy than the sun

42. The photovoltaic effect is _______.

A. the process of operating a solar car

B. the process of absorbing photons from the sun

C. the developing of solar cars and solar powered devices

D. the converting of heat from the sun into electricity

Education is another area of social life in which information technology is changing the way we communicate.

They can log on in early or late in the day and even join live classes in other 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 that student’s learning materials and assessment activities.

The joint family includes all living relatives on either the mother's or the father's side of the family. It is made up of grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, and cousins. They live together in a large house or in huts built close together.

Early people probably lived in joint families. They had to be part of a large group in order to survive. The members of the group helped each other hunt. They worked together to protect themselves from dangerous animals and other enemies.

In China, people lived in joint families. When a son married, he and his wife lived at his parents' home. Unmarried daughters remained at home until they married. Chinese children felt very loyal to their parents. Younger members of the joint families always took care of the old ones.

In India and Africa, some people still live in joint families. The members of a joint family share their earnings and property. If one member of the group becomes ill or has bad luck, the others help the person. As in the past, the members of the joint family offer each other help and protection.

A. families found in India and Africa B. joint families C. families in China D. all types of family

A teacher’s working day is short. It usually ranges from 4 to 5 hours. However, he has a lot of things to do at home, such as planning lessons, correcting papers, doing research, reading textbooks and reference books.

Jean spent her first few years in Hooper and her family moved to Otsego early in her life. She was only ten when her father died unexpectedly, leaving her mother to raise and support their family alone. Her mother soon went to work outside the home to provide for the family, and Jean, being one of the oldest, had to help care for her younger siblings. Although she had much responsibility at home, Jean thoroughly enjoyed school and was an excellent student. She went on to graduate 10th in her class at Otsego High School in 1953.

While still in high school, Jean met a young man named Charles "Chuck" Holly, at a dance in Alamo; and they were quite taken with each other.

At the time, Chuck was serving his country in the military, and had come home on leave to marry his sweetheart. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, he was sent overseas to serve in Korea for the next fifteen months.

Upon his discharge, the couple settled into married life together in the Plainwell, Otsego area. To help make ends meet, Jean went to work at the collection bureau in Kalamazoo for a while, before taking a job at the cheese company in Otsego. In 1964, Chuck and Jean were overjoyed with the birth of their son, Chuck, who brought great joy into their lives.
