Amelia Earhart
1. D_________________________________________________________
Amelia Mary Earhart was born on July 24, 1897, in Atchison, Kansas. At three years old she went to live
with her grandparents who lived fifty miles away. Amelia was a tomboy and loved snow sledding and
climbing trees. She lived with her grandparents until she was ten. At ten she moved back with her parents
and her younger sister, Muriel.
2. G _________________________________________________________
Amelia saw her first airplane at the 1908 Iowa State Fair. At this fair, there was a stunt-flying exhibition,
and it fascinated Amelia. It was here, as she watched theses planes twirling and swooshing, that Amelia fell
in love with the idea of flying. Amelia actually had to wait thirteen years to take her first ride in a plane,
and just six months after that, she bought her first plane. It was bright yellow, and she called it Canary.
3.F _________________________________________________________
Amelia was very competitive and entered many flying contests over the next several years. She continually
broke the records of other pilots. To mention just a few:
In June of 1928, she became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic.
In May of 1932, she became the second person to fly solo across the Atlantic.
From August 24 to 25, 1932, she flew a solo nonstop flight from the west coast of the United States to the
east coast, making her the first woman to do that.
From April 24 to 25, 1935, she was the first person to fly solo from Hawaii to California.
4.B _________________________________________________________
At the age of forty, in 1937, Amelia Earhart wanted to be the first woman to fly around the world. She and
her navigator took off from Oakland, California, and flew to Miami, then through the Caribbean to Brazi
and through Africa to India. After India, they flew to Bangkok, Indonesia, Australia, and then Papua New
Guinea. From Papua New Guinea, they flew toward Howard Island, 2,200 miles away. They never arrived,
and despite extensive searches, they were never found.
No one knows for sure what happened to Amelia and her navigator, but the world knows that Amelia is
one of the most important and influential pilots in history.
II. Read the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T), false (F), or not given

Malala Yousafzai was born on July 12, 1997, in Mingora, Pakistan. As a young girl, she demanded that girls
should be allowed to receive an education, which resulted in the Taliban issuing
a death threat against her.
After the Taliban began attacking girls’ schools in Swat, Malala gave a speech

under the Taliban’s threats to deny her an education. Yousafzai continued to
speak out about her right, and the right of all women, to an education.

shooting resulted in a massive support for Yousafzai, which continued during
her recovery. She gave a speech at the United Nations on her 16 th birthday, in
2013. She has also written an autobiography “I am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was
Shot by the Taliban”, which was released in October 2013.
At the age of 17, she became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize: giải nobel hòa bình.
In congratulating Yousafzai, U.N. Secretary – General Ban Ki-moon described her as “a brave and gentle
advocate of peace who through the simple act of going to school became a global teacher”.
For her 18th birthday on July 12, 2015, the young activist opened a school for Syrian refugee girls in
Lebanon. Its expenses were covered by the Malala Fund, and the school was designed to admit nearly 200
girls from the ages of 14 to 18. “Today on my first day as an adult, on behalf of the world’s children, I
demand we must invest in books instead of bullets,” Yousafzai spoke in one of the school’s classrooms.

III. Read the passage carefully and do the tasks that follow.
Working mothers are the ones who move out of the house for the purpose of of earning money and also
maintain household chores. Every woman at home prefers to work in order to balance the financial and the
other basic needs of the family.
The children of working mothers become smarter, more active, and more independent aas compared to
the children of non-working mothers. This is is because of the fact that the mothers being working have to
move out of the house leaving all the household chores intact, the children understand their responsibilities
and manage to do all their tasks without being dependent on others, so they become smart, active and
independent enough.
The working mothers are now helped by their husbands in household chores after returning from
work. By seeing fathers being a helping hand to mothers, children learn good habits and inculcate manners
of helping others as well as their mothers, thus in this way good habits are inculcated in them.
A working mother also adds to the advantage of helping the family financially. It is beneficial as a
woman becomes a helping hand to the husband in terms of money. Therefore, the family runs in a very
smooth way without any financial difficulty and the kids also get the best as parents are able to afford all
necessities due to a good income level.
The mothers, when work, become an inspiration for their kids as they look up to their mums and say
that they aspire to be like their mums in the near future. Working mums not only work but also look after
their children without any difficulty. So such kids need to get an inspiration at home, and they also learn to
do hard work in their life.

Women Who Have Made History
In the last 100 years, more women have become scientists, writers, and politicians than ever before. For
example, Rachel Carson was a scientist and writer who started the environmental movement in the 1960s.
Indira Gandhi was a politician who became the first female Indian Prime Minister in 1966. The
achievements of these extraordinary women and many others have changed the world.
This week, we present Marie Curie, the Polish French physicist and chemist
who was one of the greatest scientists of the 20 th century. She was also the
first woman to win a Nobel Prize, and the only woman ever to win two
Nobel Prizes in different subjects, physics and chemistry.
 Maria Sklodowska was born in Warsaw, Poland in 1867. Maria went to Paris to study mathematics and
physics. She met Pierre Curie, who was a well-known scientist. They got married in 1895.
Marie Curie is famous for her work on radiation, which she named ‘radioactivity’. She used the word
‘radioactive’ to describbe substances that produce rays. Scientists already knew about the existence of ‘X-
rays’, but they didn’t know what they were. Marie Curie’s research showed that these radioactive rays
come from atoms. She discovered polonium and radium, which are both radioactive elements. Her
research was essential for the use of X-rays in medicine. She knew that doctors could use X-ray to reveal
broken bones. During World War One, she organized twenty mobile X-ray units to help doctors. Marie also
discovered that doctors could use another radioactive element, called radon, to treat cancer.
Marie Curie faced great opposition from male scientists in France, but she never gave up her research.
She died in 1934 from leukemia that she developed because of her exposure to radiation. In those days, the
health dangers of radioactivity were unknown. Her daughter Irene Curie was also a great scientist who
won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1935.

VI. Read the text and decide whether the sentneces are true (T), false (F). Then correct the false
sentences.

Woman’s work?
In many ways, David Mc Laren is a stereotypical Scotish man. In his free time, he plays golf, goes to
football matches, and meets his friends in the local pub, all the things you’d expect a young, active man to
do. And like many men, he isn’t very good at housework. He’s untidy, hardly ever hoovers and he’s never
cooked a meal in his life. However, one thing about him does not fit this stereotype: his job. David is a
midwife.
Although some women are surprised when they find out that their midwife is a man, David has a good
reputation in the part of Scotland where he works. In his opinion, it’s because of the way he carries out his
duties. ‘I really care about the women that I look after,’ he says. He gets on well with the husbands too.
‘Having another man there calms them,’ he explains. ‘And many of them feel more comfortable asking a
man questions.’
‘I’ve been qualified for fourteen years, and I’ve delivered hundreds of babies,’ says David, who used to be a
coal miner. ‘There are only five or six male midwives in Scotland. When started, I expected more men to
join the profession, but the number hasn’t really changed. People still see it as a job which only women do.’
A man’s world?
Base 34 is new garage in Lyon, in the south-east of France. Customers who take their cars there for repairs
may be surprised to find that all the employees are women.
When Michel Martin advertised for women who wanted to become mechanics, he received 120
applications. After tests and interviews, he chose fifteen. They included a nurse, a secretary, a beauty
therapist and two flight attendants. They all wanted a chance to work in this traditionally male
environment. ‘I think a lot of people instinctively trust women more. And female customers might feel
more comfortable with somebody who doesn’t treat them as if they don’t understand anything.’
Although most car mechanics are still men, the situation is gradually changing. Men are starting to leave
the profession, and women are joining it. Why? In a word, technology. In the past, being a mechanic is a
physically tough and dirty job. Now, cars are much more complicated than they used to be. You need
patience and intelligence to work out what the problem is, not strength. Many people believe that this
makes the job more suitable for women than for men.

1. David McLaren does not have the same hobbies as most other men in Scotland. ________

The state of California is working to say goodbye to the gender wage gap: chênh lệch tiền lương.
Governor Jerry Brown has signed the Fair Pay Act, a new law that forces: buộc (16) employers who pay

The status of women in Japan is complex and cannot be characterized in simple terms. Slowly, there is a

work after getting married and having children. However, many companies have separate programmes for
women, usually non-career development, and follow practices that would be considered discriminatory in
other societies. For a typical couple, the female spouse is still generally expected to do all of the cleaning,
cooking, and other chores, whether she is working or not. Single women are said to be enjoying their lives,

for various objectives, for example volunteer activities, community services, recycling activities, study
groups, and many others. The traditional Japanese value of “good wife, good mother” is changing.

Tawakkol Karman was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2011 in recognition of her work in non-
violent struggle for the safety of women and for women’s rights to full participation in Yemen.
Tawakkol was born in 1979 in Taiz, Yemen’s third largest city. She studied a degree in Commerce from
the University of Science and Technology in Sana’a before completing another degree in Political Science
from the University of Sana’a.
 Growing up in a country with political uncertainty, Tawakkol witnessed the
unification of North and South Yemen in 1990, followed by a civil war in 1994 in
which the North gained victory over the South.
As a journalist and human rights activist, Tawakkol responded to the political
instability and human rights abuses in Yemen by organizing others and reporting
injustices. In 2005, she founded the organization Women Journalists Without Chains
(WJWC) which supports rights and freedoms and provides media skills to journalists.
In addition, the organization releases regular reports in human rights abuses in
Yemen, recording more than 50 cases of attacks and unfair sentences against
newspapers and writers so far.
In 2007, Tawakkol began organizing weekly protests in Yemen’s capital, Sana’a, aiming at calling for
inquiries into social and legal injustice. Tawakkol’s weekly protests continued until 2011 when she
redirected protesters to support the Arab Spring. Tawakkol even brought Yemen’s revolution to New York
speaking directly with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon and organizing public meetings at the UN
headquaters.
Brave and outspoken, Tawakkol has been imprisoned on a number of occasions for her opposition
movement for human rights. She is known as “Mother of the Revolution”, and “The Iron Woman”.
Since receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, she has continued to support female journalists and encouraged
people in Yemen to ask for social justice and human rights. Fiercely committed to change, Tawakkol
spends the majority of her time in a tent in Change Square, where she continues her peaceful protest for
justice and freedom.
