Does the time really fly?
It was Lunar New Year and I‟d returned home for the traditional dinner. We had all
finished eating when my sister said, „Has it really been a year sinc e we last sat down for a
family meal? Where has the time gone?‟
We often say that „time flies‟. It‟s a saying that means time passes very quickly.
Curiously, as we get older, time seems to pass faster and faster. Why does this happen?
Some people think that we had fewer new or important events in our lives as we get older.
Years seem longer when we were young because many things are happening. Also, time
isn‟t so important as we get older. Children often count the days until a special event.
When we get older, we have too many things to think about.
Luckily, time doesn‟t actually pass faster as we get older. A day still has 24 hours and an
hour still has 60 minutes. Maybe we need to find a way to slow down our lives and not try
to be busy all the time.

Children under age six watch an average of about two hours of screen media a day,
mainly TV and DVDs. Children and teenagers from eight to eighteen spend nearly 4
hours a day in front of a TV screen and two more hours on the
computer and playing video games.
Children watching too much TV can become fat, violent,
have less energy and a harder time at school.
Children won‟t turn off the television, but they should
choose the suitable programmes. Parents should provide
necessary material: books to read, board games, art or sporting equipment.
The TV is usually on during dinner. That‟s too bad because your most importan t family
conversation will happen during the family dinner. It‟s a good idea when there is no TV
set in the bedroom, and the children agree.
Small children watch about 2 hours of TV and DVDs a day. ______________
The screen time of older children and teenagers is often 4 hours a day.

A. Get Ready for NON-STOP ACTION at CAMP MORLAND!
What is Camp Morland? Camp Morland is an exciting summer camp for 13- to 16-year-
olds. We offer over 100 activities, including sports, art, music, dancing, and cooking.
Bài tập Tiếng Anh 7 (không đáp án) - Unit 1: My time - 27
What is a typical day like? The day starts at 7:15. We have breakfast and then the first
activity starts at 9:00. We stop for lunch at noon, and at 2:00 it‟s time for afternoon
activities. Dinner is at 6:00 and then there are fun events, like parties and games. It‟s
awesome!
What do our customers say? “This is my third summer at Camp Morland and 1 love it.
I‟m not a morning person, but getting out of bed is easy here because there are so many
fan things to do!”
by Izzy, 15
“I‟m usually bored at home during summer vacation, but not this year! My favourite thing
about Camp Morland is the people. Everyone is friendly.”
by Carlos, 13
B. The power of doing nothing
Posted by Emi I July 5
The summer is here at last. My sister is getting ready to go to summer camp, but I‟m
spending my vacation at home. My sister thinks I‟m wasting the summer doing nothing,
but I don‟t agree. In this post, I want to explain why. And no - it isn‟t because I‟m lazy.
What is „doing nothing‟ anyway? Am I doing nothing when I‟m reading? Hanging out
with friends? Talking with my family? Daydreaming? Sleeping? These are the things that
make me happy. How can they be a waste of time?
I think it‟s important to be bored sometimes. It gives US space to think and explore. I
never have a great idea for a blog post when I‟m running from soccer practice to my
violin lesson. But scientists believe that when we‟re relaxing, our brains are still working.
Ideas often come to me like magic when I‟m takin g the dogs for a walk. We use our
imagination and discover who we really are when we have free time.
Task 1. Choose the correct answers.

a. a website b. a story c. a leaflet
2. What is Text B?

a. Text A b. Text B c. both texts
In which text(s) can you find personal opinions?
a. Text A b. Text B c. both texts
In which text(s) can you find some real information?

How the World Spends its Free time
o Internet
People from Canada spend, on average, 43.5 hours per week online, 8 hours longer
than the next highest, the USA. One reason: Canad a has long, cold winters so people
spend lots of time indoors.
@ Sport
Football is king. In second place, surprisingly, is cricket. Only a few nations play the
game seriously, but it‟s very popular in India, which has 1.2 billion people.
© Outdoors
New Zealanders spend the most time outdoors. The countryside is perfect for hiking,
mountain climbing, and water sports. If you live in New Zealand, you‟re never more
than two hours‟ drive from the sea. And then there is the rugby, too.
® Bars ;? .. . .. r
Spain has six bars per 1,000 people, easily the highest number. In Spain, a bar is for
families, not just drinkers. It‟s a meeting place and often an eating place.
© Galleries and Museums
The UK has six of the top 20 most visited art galleries and museums in the world,
including the National Gallery, the British Museum and Tate Modem.
:
©TV A
The biggest TV-watchers are in Thailand. They spend 22.4 hours a week watching
TV. In second place comes the Philippines (21 hours) and in third place, Egypt (20.9
hours), famous for its never-ending soap opera.
© Party
It‟s impossible to say who parties the most, but Brazil‟s annual carnival makes it a

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 7 (không đáp án) - Unit 1: My time - 29


good choice. Some of the best cities for partying include Bangkok (friendly people,
great nightclubs), Berlin (live music scene), and the island of Ibiza (dance music).
© Exercising
The biggest exercisers are people from Greece and Estonia. Over 80 percent of
people in those countries exercise regularly. In both countries, football and the
Olympic sports are the most popular, but Estonia has one very special game: ice
cricket.

Texting Teens
Recent surveys show a dramatic increase in the amount of texting by teenagers. One
survey says that more than 66% of teenagers own a mobile, and they send about 190 texts
per week! Some teenagers send hundreds of texts a day. In fact, many teenagers spend so
much time texting, they can‟t imagine life without their mobile.
So why do teenagers like texting? What makes it better than phone calls? Many teens say
that texting is easier, faster and more fun. Texts are private - they can send texts during
class time and no one can hear what they‟re saying. Texts are cheaper - on a lot of
phones, and you can have unlimited texts: it makes no difference if you send one text or a
hundred texts, the cost is the same.
Teenagers also say that texting is the best way to stay in touch with friends. They don‟t
feel lonely or sad because they can talk to their friends any time. It‟s nice to get texts
from friends, and it helps them feel relaxed if they are nervous or depressed. But texting
has a negative side too. Too much texting can make your thumbs hurt!
1. Teenagers are texting more than before. ___________
Some teenagers send a hundred texts per hour. _____________________
Many teenagers have problems without their phone. ________________
4. Teenagers often send texts to their parents. ___________
5. Teenagers have very high phone bills. ___________
6. Texting makes teenagers feel happy. ___________

II. Read the text, and then answer the questions.


Emojis, smiley faces, hearts, winking eyes, were created in 1998 by Shigetaka Kurita, an
engineer at the Japanese phone company, NTT Docomo. His job was to create a way for
customers to communicating using icons. His efforts resulted in the creation of 176 icons,
which he called “emojis” coming from two Japanese words “e” (picture) and “moji”
(character).

50 - Lưu Hoang Tri


Today there are more than 1,800 emojis. Emojis usually don‟t have any labels, so their
meaning is up to those who use them. Emojis can serve as a social media status marker.
Scientific studies reveal that when people look at a smiley face online, they have the same
feeling when they look at a real human face.
People can remember what they read more easily thanks to emojis. People in offices say
that if negative feedback from a boss goes with positive emojis, employees don‟t feel bad
about the message.
When were the first emoj is?

What was Kurita‟s job?

What does the word “emoji” come from?

What do people feel when they look at a smiley face online?

Are emojis good for our memory? Why?

Worth a fortune
Do you have something worth a lot of money hiding in your cupboard? Antiques are big
business today, and there are now lots of popular TV programmes encouraging us to
search our attics and garages or to visit auctions and secondhand shops to find that one
item will make US a millionaire.
In these programmes experts visit people‟s homes to search them for interesting items to
sell at auctions, or they take people to markets and shops to help them find a bargain.
And it‟s not just old antiques that are of interest - people are making money from items
they bought just ten or fifteen years ago.
But why do we have this fascination? Why do these programmes send US hurrying to
look through the things we‟ve had for ages? „It‟s only human nature to want something
for nothing!‟ says expert Nadia Thomas. „We take great pleasure in getting money for
something we thought was worthless! It‟s like the desire we have as children to find
hidden treasure. This is the adult equivalent.‟
So, what about that painting that your great-aunt left you when she died? You‟ve
always hated it but who knows - it could be worth a fortune. And you could be on TV! .

4C. READING
I. Read the text, and answer the questions.
When John was 21, he graduated from college and decided to travel. He travelled to
several countries in the world with a backpack, a camera, and a guitar.
First, he took pictures of anything. For every 100 shots he took, he found one that he
liked. But it didn‟t matter to him because that was worth everything to him.
After that, he knew that photography is not always about what you share but about what
you don‟t. He stopped posting thousands of pictures to Facebook every mont h and started
building his own website and a photography blog. His friends told him, “Don‟t show
everything. Show only your best work.”
He started posting photos on his blog and stories behind them three times a week. The
blog taught him to take photos with a purpose, and make sure that the photos were able to
support a story or to tell a story of itself.
He also read the camera manual to know how to use it better. He took fewer pictures each
time, and he began to take more good photos. He was still learn ing photography and he
was happier with the result.
What did John do after he graduated from college?

Did he take a lot of good pictures at the beginning? Was he happy then?

What events changed his thinking about photography?

What did he do with his blog?

What did he learn about taking photos from his blog?

How could he take better pictures?

II. Read the text, and do the following tasks.


Last year, Jake Doyle was on a group holiday on the
east coast of Africa. One morning, the tourists were
walking through the local market with lots of stalls
with their tour guide. Jake used his camera to take a
picture of a family behind their stall. Just then he
heard the voice, “You tourists just come to take
pictures. You never buy anything.”

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 7 (không đáp án) - Unit 4: In the picture - 101
He turned to see one of the local fishermen. He was looking annoyed, and he was true.
Jake said sorry to the man and walked away quickly. The people at the market worked
hard to sell their things and make money. They didn‟t need tourists like Jake to take
pictures without asking, talking to them, or buying anything.
When I posted the story on Twitter, some people thought the problem might come from
social network. “We visited an amazing market and we had pictures to share online and
show we were there.”
When Jake came back home, he went to a travel photography course. The important rules
to take pictures at a local market are:
Ask permission before taking a picture. If people say „no‟, leave them alone.
Start a conversation with the person.
Don‟t be in a hurry. Buy something from their stall.
If you go in a group, print your pictures when you arrive home and send them to the
tour guide. They can send them to the people in the pictures.
When we do these things, people will smile and look at the camera if we spend a little
time with them. We‟ll learn a lot more about the community and get better pictures, too.
Task 1. Number the events in the correct order.
Jake Doyle...
______ a. heard a local person complain about the way tourists take pictures.
______ b. took a course and learned about travel photography.
______ c. began to think about tourist photography.
______ d. was on holiday and took a picture in a market.
______ e. discussed the story with people on social network.
Task 2. Answer the questions.
Why was the fisherman annoyed when he saw Jake about to take a picture?

Why do tourists often take photos of places such as a beautiful market?

According to the rules, when should you leave someone alone?

If you take pictures when people say „yes‟, what might the people in your
pictures look like?

5C. READING
Read the text, and answer the questions.
What‟s on your plate?
A recent study shows that more and more teenagers are not eat ing a healthy diet. We
asked seventeen-year-old student Tanya Fairhurst to keep a food diary to see what a
typical teenager eats and drinks. Does she eat any fruit and vegetables? Are there many
hamburgers in her diet? Is there much juice? Read on and find out.
Day 1
Breakfast: I woke up late for college, so I didn‟t eat any breakfast. My mum leaves for
work before I‟m awake. She left me some cereal, but I threw it away. I had some orange
juice instead.
Lunch: My dad gives me money every week for my lunches, but I use it to bu y
magazines and DVDs, so there‟s not much money left for food. Today, I had some
biscuits instead of lunch.
Dinner: By 5 p.m. I was hungry, so I had a little peanut butter on bread for a snack, but I
didn‟t eat any vegetables. For dinner, I had a burger. I don‟t have many big meals
because I want to stay slim.
Day 2
Breakfast: I had some bread and drank a lot of water. I was still hungry, but I don‟t know
how to cook, so I didn‟t eat any more.
Lunch: I drank a few glasses of orange juice, then I had a b anana, some chocolate and a
few crisps. I know you should eat five portions of fruit and vegetables a day. I sometimes
eat fruit, but I don‟t eat many vegetables. I hate salad.
Dinner: I ate quite well this evening because 1 had dinner with my family. We had soup,
chicken, baked potatoes, peppers and broccoli, but 1 don‟t cat any soup. I had some apple
juice before I went to bed.
Why didn‟t Tanya eat breakfast on Day 1?

123 - Lưu Hoang Tri


What does she spend her lunch money on?

Why doesn‟t she eat big meals?

Why didn‟t she eat more for breakfast on Day 2?

Why did she ear well at dinner time on Day 2?

IL Read the passage and match the ideas to the paragraphs. Write the answer in
each blank.

Coffee and tea are bad for you.


There are “good” foods and “bad” foods. c.
Vegetarian food is always healthy.
Fruit juice is good for you.
Carrots help you see in the dark.
It‟s OK not to eat breakfast.

Food: Facts and Myths


__________________________________
True and false. Natural fruit juice is good for you, but it can be bad for your teeth. So
yes, have some orange juice with your breakfast or lunch, but don‟t drink any juice
between meals. Try water instead. Up to eight glasses of water a day is good for you,
and water hasn‟t got any calories.
_________________ _ ____________ _
False. When you sleep, you don‟t eat for a long time and in the morning it‟s
important to start the day with a good breakfast. Without breakfast, you often feel
hungry later in the morning and start eating biscuits or chocolate. These sugary
snacks are not a good idea. (If you want a healthy snack, try some nuts or melon.)
: :: ; ;
3. ______ '■

True and false. People drink coffee when they are tired, but it isn‟t very healthy so
don‟t have more than two cups a day and don‟t d rink any coffee before you go to
bed. Tea is generally good for you, but drink it with lemon and put any milk or sugar
in it! Green tea is especially healthy.
False. Vegetarian dishes often contain a lot of cheese and oil and these can be very
fattening. It‟s important to eat some vegetables every day. (Doctors say five portions
of vegetables and/or fruit). We need the vitamins and minerals, especially from green
vegetables.
____________________________________

124- Lưu Hoang Tri


False. Carrots have a lot of vitamins A and vitamin A is good for your eyes, but
nobody can really see in the dark!
6. ____________ ____________ ____ ___ ; / .h

False. There are good and bad diets. For example, real chocolate contains vitamins
and minerals and can help you when you are tired. But it also has a lot of sugar, so
don‟t eat it often. Eat a balanced diet with some rice, pasta, bread or noodles and lots
of vegetables and fruit. You also need protein, from meat, grilled fish, cheese or nuts.
And you need oil: olive oil and fish oil are particularly good.

Sarah:
„Personally, I love doing brain training games like number puzzles and quizzes. I

loves playing chess, but I hate it. I think it‟s too complicated and slow.‟
Tim:
„Our teacher says that doing crosswords and brain training games is good for yo ur brain,

Rob:
„I really like doing crosswords and Sudoku. I‟m also good at playing chess. I play online

Read the text, and then do the tasks.
PRODIGY!
Could you speak another language at the age of eight? At this age, Wendy Vo could
speak eleven languages fluently. She couldn‟t brush her teeth by herself, though! Another
child genius, s. Chandra Sekhar, could programme a computer at seven. At ten he took
exams at the company Microsoft and two years later, he went to university.
Prodigies are children with incredible talents. They can do things that many adults can‟t
do. Some scientists think prodigies are bom with their talents. However, their parents
usually help them. Sometimes children and parents have got the same interests. For
example, Mozart‟s father was a composer and Picasso‟s father was a painter.
Some parents of prodigies are very ambitious and strict. Ainan Cawley is a chemistry
prodigy. At seven, his parents wanted him to start university! When Janos Starker, a
famous cello player, was young, his mother taught their parrot to say „Practise, Janos,
practise!‟
Clearly, life is sometimes difficult for prodigies. How do you make friends at university
when you‟re twelve? And it‟s difficult to take a break when a parrot is shouting at you!
Psychologists believe that parents of prodigies need to help their children but not push
them too hard. Two-year-old Elise Tan-Robert‟s mum is a good example. Elise broke a
record when she scored 156 in an IQ exam. Albert Einstein‟s score was only 160! Elise‟s
mother made an important decision about her daughter. She said, „Her IQ is really high,
but if it goes down we won‟t be upset.‟
Task 1. Choose the correct summary of the text.
The author of the text describes:
how di fferent the life of a prodigy is.
how prodigies study at university.
how to become a prodigy.

Task 2. Complete the sentences with one, two or three words.

Brain Power
It‟s 7 p.m. and 15-year-old Natalie Conner has been online for two hours. She has
already read and sent IMs, posted comments on social networking sites, and read an
update on a blog she is following. She has researched her science project, and she has just
started writing it. Natalie has done all these things since she got home from school.

As Natalie‟s example shows, the internet has become an important part of a twenty -first
century teenager‟s life. Today‟s teens have never known a world without it. They have
used the internet since they were children. But is all this online activity good for their
brains? Has it changed the way they read and remember?
2 —_____ • \J\■'''' '
The internet has recently changed the way people read. Teenagers find it difficult to
concentrate on long texts because they read a lot of short texts online. They click on
websites, scan texts quickly, and follow links to different webpages. Their minds follow a
lot of different directions. This is a different skill from reading a book.

Search engines have made it less important for people to use their memories. Why do we
remember something if we can find it in a few seconds on Google? However, even before
the internet, people didn‟t try to remember everything. There were libraries and reference
books to store information. The internet is just another type of external memory.

Teenagers are using their brains differently, but this doesn‟t mean that they are losing
their brain power. They can‟t concentrate on long texts, but they can process small pieces
of information extremely fast. They have developed new skills, and their brains are
simply adapting to new technology.
Task 1. Match the paragraphs with the topics.
Memory
Adaptation
Modem Lifestyle
Reading
Task 2. Answer the questions.

127 - Lưu Hoang Tri


How long has Natalie been on the internet today?

What is she doing now?

What type of texts do teenagers read?

What types of texts do they find hard to read?

What has replaced reference books?

Why are teenagers‟ brains changing?

VI. Read the text, and do the tasks that follow.


Meet the MEMORY MASTERS
Some people call Stephen Wiltshire „the human camera‟. Stephen was in a helicopter for
twenty minutes, above London, and then he drew pictures of the city from memory.
Stephen wasn‟t bom in London and he doesn‟t know the city, but in twenty minutes he
memorized hundreds of buildings. His pictures weren‟t perfect, but they were very
detailed.
Most people haven‟t got a photographic memory like Stephen. In fact, the maximum
number of things people can usually remember from a list is about six or seven. But it is
possible to train your brain.
For example, Mahavir Jain, from India, memorized 18,000 words and definitions from an
English dictionary. His English exams were easy after that and now he owns three
English schools.
People also try to memorize pi. For most people at school, 3.142 is enough, but Akira
Haraguchi, from Japan, once recited 100,000 digits of pi in sixteen hours. He started at
9.30 a.m. on a Tuesday and finished at 1.28 a.m. the next day. it was a record.
There are also memory superstars. Dominic O‟Brien was first interested in memory after
he left school and he started to train his memory. In 1991 he won the World Memory
Championships. He was World Memory Championship seven more times between 1992
and 2001. In 2002 Dominic memorized the order of cards in fifty-four packs of playing
cards. That‟s 2,808 cards. The world record was 2,704 cards. When he repeated the
cards, Dominic was wrong only eight times.

Task 1. Mark the sentences T (true), or F (false). Correct the false sentences.
1. Stephen Wiltshire was bom in London. _______
2. Stephen drew a helicopter. _______

128 - Lưu Hoằng Trí


3. Mahavir Jain learned 18,000 words and their meanings. _______
Akira Haraguchi learned 100,000 digits of pi in 16 hours. __________________

VII. Read the text, and do the following tasks.


The best memory
Who‟s got the best memory: humans or animals? It‟s an interesting question.
Several years ago, a group of scientists tested the photographic memory of young
chimpanzees. They showed chimpanzees and humans a computer screen with numbers on
it. When the numbers disappeared, the chimpanzees could remember the position of the
numbers. In fact, they were better at this than the humans.
Their experiments showed that a bird called Clark‟s nutcracker has a fantastic memory,
too. The scientists watched the birds for months. The birds hid thousands of seeds over an
area of about twenty square kilometres. Six months later the birds found nearly all of the
seeds from memory. Humans were far less successful at this type of activity.
However, humans can do something that animals can‟t do. We can decide how we want
to memorize things. In the scientists‟ memory experiments, humans used different
techniques to memorize objects. Some imagined pictures of the objects, and some said
the words to themselves again and again. Humans wrote lists and trained their brains not
to forget important information. Animals can‟t do that.
Task 1. Choose the correct answer.
The text is about...
memory competitions.
where animals put their food.
human and animal memories.

__________________ tested chimpanzees and humans.

c. Fame achieved D. An unpromising start

Every so often, a genius comes along. Albert Einstein completely changed our ideas of
space and time. He is called the „father of modem physics‟. But what does a genius look
like as a child? Einstein was bom in Germany. He wasn‟t impressive as a child. He was
very slow to start talking and his parents were worried about him. at school, his teachers
weren‟t impressed either. He found school boring and was badly behaved. He left at the
age of 15 without passing the final exams.
2 ________________ - / • - -
However, Einstein was very curious about the world. His father and uncle had an
engineering company, and he was always asking questions about electricity and
machines. When he was small, his father gave him a compass. Einstein was fascinated
because the needle always pointed north. He wanted to find out about the universe, but
the answers to many of his questions weren‟t taught in schools. So he read lots of books
on his own.
3 ________________ ; •
Einstein finished his education in Switzerland. He wanted to work in a university, but no
one thought he was good enough. When he was 23, he got a job in a government office in
Switzerland. His job was to look at people‟s inventions and give them a patent for their
130 - Lưu Hoằng Trí
ideas. The work was easy for him and he had time to think. He spent a lot of time writing
about the laws of physics and the universe. He sent his papers to scientific magazines.
The science world was amazed to read them. No one had ever heard of this young office
worker.
4 ________________ - •

Between 1901 and 1954, Einstein published more than 300 scientific works. When he
2
was 30, he was finally offered a job at Zurich University. E = me is his famous theory
about energy. The idea was so advanced that no one could actually prove it worked until
much later. In 1919 one of Einstein‟s theories about light was proved to be correct and he
finally became famous. In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize for Physics. He was very happy
about this. But he told everybody, T have no special talents. I am only passionately
curious.‟

XII. Read the text, and do the tasks that follow.
The Memory Man
Can you remember people‟s faces but not their names? Are you bad at remembering
people‟s birthdays? How many things have you forgotten this week? According to Andi
Bell, you needn‟t be forgetful again.
Andi Bell used to be unemployed. Now he is a memory grandmaster who has won the
world memory championships three times. He has been training his memory for around
fifteen years, ever since he read an article about the amazing memory man, Dominic
O‟Brien. In 2002, he beat his hero O‟Brien at the World Memory Championships for the
first time.
Andi has broken many memory records and is currently the speed memory champion. He
has correctly memorised the order of a pack of cards in just 31.16 seconds. He can also
remember the order of over 1,000 cards in one hour. So how does he do it?
Andi‟s technique is an unusual but simple one. Journalist Lara Barton met him and wrote
an account of his technique.
Today, Andi Bell is going to teach me how to improve my memory. In less than an hour,
I will have a working memory of the past 1,000 years in history .
„Right,‟ says Andi, „think of ten rooms in a building you know very well.‟ I think of the
house I grew up in. He tells me we‟re going to call each room a different century. „What‟s
your first room?‟ he asks.
„ It‟s my bedroom, Andi. ‟
„Your bedroom is the 1000s,‟ he says. „Imagine the Battle of Hastings in the middle of
the room. ‟ Then just before the door I have to imagine a water clock to remind me Su-
Sung‟s invention in China. I‟ve never seen a water clock, so I imagine something like a
sundial in water. By the end of the tour, I‟ve put Marco Polo at the bottom of the stairs,
Queen Victoria in the kitchen cupboard, and the Mona Lisa in the dining room. Whatever
will my mother say?

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 7 (không đáp án) - Unit 5_ REVIEW - 143
The basic idea is that you imagine events, and put them at a particular point in the room
depending upon when they happened during the century. For example, events at the start
of a century go near the door.
Essentially, the historical events become like furniture - you learn to associate them with
a particular room at place. To me, Mozart now sits, like a table, in the middle of my
kitchen, and I have to walk around him to get to Beethoven!
Andi says that everybody can benefit from his techniques. All you hav e to do is think of
the things you want to remember and put them in familiar places in your mind. „You can
apply it to anything, you can apply it to learning,‟ he says. So, have you ever been paying
attention? You have no excuse for not passing your exams now.

My lucky escape by Ben Thomson

It was the second day of our holiday and I was sitting outside our tent playing on ny
phone. But things were about to change. First, I heard a loud noise. It sounded

like a large animal. I ignored it. Next, I smelt a strange smell, then I saw a bright orange
light. After that, my neck and my shoulders started to feel hot. Suddenly, 1 realized what
was happening: it was a forest fire and the trees were burning all around us.
We were absolutely terrified and we ran to the beach. While we were waiting patiently
with all the other people from the campsite, planes dropped water on the burning forest.
Finally, after hours and hours, we went back to our tent but we couldn‟t stay on the
campsite because it was too dangerous. Luckily, we were able to spend the night at a
nearby school.
In the end, we had to go back home to England the next day. We were relieved and
grateful to be alive.‟

the monkeys for about ten minutes. Suddenly, Peter stopped. He was worried. “I‟m not
going to walk further,” he said. “We‟ll get lost. I‟m going back.”
We looked around us. There were trees everywhere. The campsite wasn‟t far, but we had
no idea which direction to take. “I think we are already lost,” Peter said. “How are we
going to get back? Nobody knows where we are. They‟ll never find us.”
Then it started to rain. Luckily, I had a waterproof coat. We sat on our rucksacks with the
coat over our heads. There were loads of mosquitoes and we had no insect repellent. We
were scared and miserable.
After two hours, we heard a noise. It was Juan and he was angry. “You‟re very lucky,”

beautiful national parks and a great place to escape from the
city. But every year, around 60 visitors get into trouble in its
4,000 square miles of swamps. So what are the dangers and
what must you do to survive your trip there?
The Everglades are fall of dangerous mud bogs. They can
swallow a car or a person in a few minutes. If you fall into a bog, keep calm. Moving a
lot only pulls you in deeper. Pull each leg out slowly, then lie flat and crawl out carefully.
There are hundreds of mosquitoes, scorpions, and poisonous spiders and snakes in the
Everglades swamps. Their bites and stings can be very dangerous and sometimes fatal.
Always look where you walk, wear long pants, strong boots, and lots of insect repellent.
It can rain a lot in the Everglades and flash floods are a real danger. A flash flood is a
wall of water travelling at 60 mph. Climb up a cliff or a tree. You have to get to the
highest place you can and quickly!
More than a million alligators live in the swamps and they hide without moving. So how can
you see where they are? Well, bubbles on the water can be an alligator getting ready for
lunch! These reptiles can run up to 30 mph. They can‟t turn quickly, so if you ỷ see an
alligator, you must run away as fast as you can. ' - ‟■ J

How can we improve public transportation?
Why does our city need bike riders?
A. /■ r"/
Biking is great exercise and a cheap form of transportation. And, of course, many
people need to ride bikes, such as teenagers who are too young to drive. But more
bikes improve cities for everyone - not only bikers. For example, if fewer people
drive, the air will be cleaner, the roads will be safer, and car trips will be faster.
_______________ ;
Biking on the road is dangerous. Drivers don‟t always see bikers, and every year there
are tragic accidents. For example, road safety experts predict that about 100 bikers will
probably die in the UK this year. Pollution is another health risk. If you ride your bike
in heavy traffic, you‟ll breathe in harmful pollutants, like nitrogen dioxide and sulphur
dioxide.

Cameron Weir
Cameron Weir saved the lives of his family, when his parents‟ car went off the road and
fell into two metres of water in a canal. The family were travelling home on the
motorway, when their car skidded on some oil. The car crashed through the metal barrier
at the side of the road, rolled down a hill and landed upside -down in a canal. Cameron,
who was only twelve at the time, quickly unfastened his seatbelt and swam out through a
broken window to the surface.
A few seconds later, Cameron‟s mum, Beryl, managed to swim free, but his seven -year-
old brother, Mac, and ten-year-old sister, Rosie, were still in the car. Cameron didn‟t
think twice about it - he went straight back under the water. Later, Cameron admitted that
he was terrified, but he knew he had to do something about his brother and sister.
Cameron quickly managed to free Mac, then returned for Rosie, who couldn‟t swim. The
cold water was cloudy and Cameron had to feel for her seatbelt. He managed to unfasten
it but ran out of breath. He then had to dive down to the car for a third time to pull her
out. Meanwhile, people passing by had pulled Cameron‟s father, Angus, to safety. He
was out of the water, but he was unconscious.
On the bank of the canal, Cameron took control of the situation. In fact, Cameron was so
calm that the firefighters who arrived at the scene mistook him for a passer-by instead of
a survivor. Cameron‟s actions were certainly heroic, but for a child they were quite
exceptional.

Top tips for cycling


Always encourage children to wear a cycle helmet when they are on their bikes, and
set a good example by wearing one yourself.
Children need to be able to judge speed and distance accurately before they cycle on
public roads. They need to take lessons on cycling in order to travel more widely on
their bikes.
Make sure children wear bright coloured clothing and fluorescent items whenever
they are cycling on the road.
And if they are cycling in the dark, they will need lights on their bikes and reflective
items too. And of course, make sure you do this yourself, to set a good example.

MUSIC: the road to success
Keith Miller grew up on a farm in Colorado, USA, with no interest in singing or musical
instruments. He was a natural sportsman: fast and powerful. After university he became a
professional American football player in 1992.
His interest in music started in 1994 when he went to a wonderful performance of The
Phantom of the Opera at the theatre. After that, he listened to CDs of other musicians and
operas. Sometimes, in private, he even sang the songs.

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 7 (không đáp án) - Unit 7: Music - 181
In 2001, when he was twenty-eight, he heard about an
opera at a music festival, which needed singers. Just for
fun, Keith auditioned for the opera. To his surprise, he
got a part! When his football team heard about this, they
laughed and laughed. They hated opera. And it wasn‟t
easy ‟ with the opera singers, either. Some of them
believed Keith was stupid because he couldn‟t read
music very well.
But Keith soon decided that his future was in opera. He retired from football and stu died
for four years at music college. He‟s now a very successful opera singer, not only
because of his beautiful voice, but also because he‟s stronger and fitter than most opera
singers. He sings in the greatest opera houses around the world.
1. Keith liked music when he was a child. _____
2. As a young man, Keith was a sportsman. _____
3. Keith‟s football team were big fans of opera. _____
4. Other footballers were very nice to Keith when they heard the news.

Can Mozart make you clever?
Some people believe that young children should listen to classical music. They think it
can change a child‟s brain and make the child clever. They call this „the Mozart effect‟.
This idea became very popular in the 1990s. Governments and universities spent a lot of
money over the next twenty years to test if it is true. The research shows that it is not.
Listening to Mozart does not have a permanent effect on your brain. However, research
shows that listening to music can help children learn. Mike Edwards teaches eight -year-
olds. He works in a special school for children with behavior problems. He is not a music
teacher, but in his classroom there is always music.
T play the music at the beginning of the lesson,‟ Mike says, „and it reall} works!‟ Mike‟s
students are sometimes difficult to control. „They‟re not stupid or lazy,‟ he says, „but
they‟re sometimes noisy and rude and you have to be ve ry patient.‟ The music is calm
and quiet. It helps the children to feel calm and quiet too. Then they can learn better.
„I don‟t think music changes a child‟s brain or personality, but it helps them to
concentrate so they can be more creative. They enjoy coming to class and it makes my
job easier because they‟re more polite and hard-working.‟
So does Mozart make you a better student? Maybe. But Mike‟s students are listening to
the blues.
th
In the last ten years of the 20 century, many people believe in the Mozart

SCHOOL OF ROCK
In a school in Vista, California, the students are studying hard. But they aren‟t reading
their books quietly. They‟re playing noisily. Because it is not an ordinary school, and its
students are not ordinary students. It‟s the School of Rock, and the students are the rock
stars of the future!
The School of Rock in Vista is one of 86 Schools of Rock (SOR) in the US and Mexico.
At SOR, children aged 7 to 18 learn to play guitar, drums, and piano, and they learn to
sing, too. They also study the music types of bands and musicians like The Beatles, The
Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, and many others. All the teachers at SOR are professional
musicians.
They teach the children how to play their j instruments. But they also teach them how to
/ perform in front of a big crowd, and how to work ■ ,J well in a group. For this reason
students have one I i 22
private lesson a week, but they also practise with I ?y. J |jl »' —
other students in bands, and prepare for big concerts. '
SOR gives students the chance to perform in big concert buildings, and also at music
festivals like Lollapalooza.
Alex Kasvikis is one of SOR‟s stars of the future. It‟s his dream to be a professional
musician. He loves the school for its music, but he really likes the students, too. Alex
thinks the school offers some fantastic experiences. But most importantly, he thinks
it helps students to see their futures as musicians.

Abbie Draper (17) is at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Texas. Her parents work
there every year, and this year she’s working, too. She’s telling US about the festival.

“It‟s a beautiful warm evening in October, and I‟m


having a fantastic time with 75,000 other people. I‟m
watching Florence and the Machine on one of the
eight stages, and they are fantastic. Everyone is
singing and dancing, and enjoying the atmosphere.
But where are we? The Austin City Limits Music
Festival of course!” The festival is now very popular
in the US. It happens for three days in September or
October every year in the Zilker Park near Austin, Texas. People travel from a lot of
different places to come here. A lot of famous singers and bands play at the festival. But
they aren‟t the only attraction. There are a lot of other activities including a place to
watch NFL (National Football League) football games. You can play beach volleyball,
too.
My parents help organize the festival. I don‟t see them very much because they are
always busy. But that‟s OK. I‟m very lucky because I‟m working here for the first time.
My job is to help in the childrs -n‟s zone, Austin Kiddie Limits. There are art and music
activities, and a lot of games. So while the adults are enjoying the music, the children are
having a fantastic time, too.
I‟m watching the fans and I can see a lot of happy people. There is always fantastic music
at the ACL. Tomorrow, one of my favourite musicians is on stage: Jack White. I‟m so
excited! And I can meet him afterwards with my dad! A CL rocks!

Playing with your food
Most parents tell their children not to play with their food. A group of musicians in
Austria didn‟t listen.
The Vienna Vegetable Orchestra, founded in 1998,
uses fresh vegetables to make music. They choose
only the freshest vegetables from local markets for
their instruments made an hour before the show.
“Fresh vegetables produce high- quality sounds.
Plastic-packed vegetables do not make good
instruments,” they say. Each xegetable can be used in
many different ways.
Carnots are made into flutes, leeks into violins and pumpkins into bass drums. We can
use vegetables together to make instruments. For example, they can make a trumpet by
using a cucumber for the body, a carrot for the mouthpiece and a pepper for the trumpet‟s
bell. The sound of each instrument depends on the quality of the vegetables and t he
temperatures on stage. The orchestra is constantly working on developing new
instruments.
The orchestra‟s performance is from classical to electronic. They play about 20 to 30
concerts a year. At the end of each performance, the vegetables are made int o a delicious
soup for the audience to eat.

Music for everyone
It‟s ten o‟clock in the morning. On a small campsite in Milton Keynes, there‟s a very
noisy drumming lesson. A campsite isn‟t the usual place for a drumming lesson. But this
isn‟t an ordinary music lesson.
Every August, young people from around the UK come to the National Youth Music
Camps at the Stables Theatre in Milton Keynes and play music together for a week. So me
young people are very good musicians and they can play different instruments. Some
young people can‟t play an instrument. Some young people haven‟t got an instrument!
But everyone is welcome at the camp and there are lots of instruments for all the youn g
people.
The young people and teachers sleep in tents. They have music lessons on the campsite
and they have breakfast, lunch and dinner together in a big tent. There is also a theatre
and a recording studio. The young people act, sing, and dance in the theatre. At the end of
the week, the young people‟s families come to the theatre and they perform a special
concert and musical theatre production.
Tony Hutchinson
I love music and hip hop, and I love Music Camp! I can play the guitar and the
keyboards. Can I sing? No, I can‟t. I‟m not good at singing, but that‟s not important
here. We can learn new instruments and meet new people.

A new type of festival
For most teenagers in the UK, it‟s difficult and expensive to get into pop festivals. The
shows finish very late and the tickets sometimes cost more than £100. But things have
started to change and that‟s because of the Underage Festival.
The festival was the idea of Sam Kilcoyne. Sam first started the Underage Club when he
was fourteen because teenagers couldn‟t get in to the normal clubs to see live music. His
club in London was incredibly successful, so he decided to have an Underage Festival,
too.
c - - • "■ — 1 This one-day festival for young people began in
2007 and it‟s become bigger every year since then.
Talented bands and singers like Dizzee
. /-'.V-.. R-asca l> Foals and Mystery Jets have appeared on

w ma* n staêe-
'p The event takes place every August in Victoria
Park in London. There‟s usually a long queue of really
excited teenagers waiting for the gates to open at eleven o‟clock. Ticket prices are much
cheaper than for normal festivals.
Perhaps the most surprising thing about the festival is that adults can‟t go in at all. The
event is only open to teenagers between the ages of fourteen and eight een. Parents need to
leave their teenagers at the gate and come back at eight o‟clock when it‟s finished.

The Suzuki Method
A. We sometimes see video clips of young children playing musical instruments. The

enormous next to them, but they play like expert musicians. Their little fingers move
* y rapidly, and their bodies move in time to » ______________________________

the music. But how can these very young children play so well? They are learning
with the Suzuki method.
B. The Suzuki method of learning musical instruments comes from Japan, and was the
idea of a man called Shinichi Suzuki (1898-1998), a violin teacher from Nagoya. His
belief was that all children can play musical instruments well. He also believed that
children can learn to play a musical instrument in the same way that they learn to
speak a language.
c. As babies, we learn a new word when we hear it hundreds of times. With the Suzuki
method, children learn a new piece of music through listening. Constant repetition of
music helps them learns.
We learn to talk first, and then to read. In the same way, the Suzuki method teaches
children to play their instrument, and then to read music.
We leam fiom our parents and teachers, and from other children, too. For this reason,
children have individual music lessons, but also learn in groups with other children.
In groups, children can encourage each other.
Shinichi Suzuki also believed it is better when children learn their instrument from a
very young age. With the Suzuki method, there are a lot of music students as young
as three or four.
Some people don‟t like the Suzuki method. They think it creates robots, not
musicians because the children are only repeating what they hear. Others believe it
can only work with ambitious parents who make their children work very hard.
There are different opinions, but it is difficult not to admire these children. For this
reason, the Suzuki method is now popular all over the world.

Instant Fame
New celebrities seem to appear every day. But who creates these stars and for how long
are they famous?
It‟s 9 a.m. and Craig Jones has just arrived outside a building where nearly a tho usand
hopeful young singers and dancers are queuing to audition for a talent show. Two hours
later, Craig still hasn‟t gone inside the building. He‟s already auditioned for two other
shows this year without success, but he hasn‟t given up yet. He‟s changed his act and
he‟s confident that this time will be his big break.
This is the age of the celebrity. Gossip magazines are full of footballers‟ wives and
fashion models and talent shows discover a new star nearly every week. It seems that
anybody can become an overnight sensation. A survey has found that one in six young
Americans really believes that they can become rich and famous if they win a talent show,
but the reality is very different.
For the winners of talent shows, life isn‟t easy. They sign a co ntract and have a hit with
their song from the show. But the second and third hits ae more difficult and music is an
expensive business. It costs about €5,000 to record a song, €30,000 to advertise it and
between €40,000 and €lm to make a good video. Then they must also pay their manager
about 20%.
Creating celebrities is a profitable business for the entertainment industry, but not many
of these artists become rich and famous. Most of them are one-hit wonders who disappear
from the public eye when the media „discovers‟ the next big star. For these wannabe
celebrities, the return to normal life is very hard. „Celebrity Street‟ is often a dead end.
Fame can be instant, but it can also finish fast.
What type of text is this?
A critical article about fame
A review of a talent show
A description of famous people
Who is Craig Jones?
a. a celebrity b. a young artist c. a talent show participant
How does Craig feel about the result of his audition?
a. positive b. negative c. he doesn‟t know
What can you read about in gossip magazines?
a. talent surveys b. footballers c. new celebrities
Who benefits from the creation of these new stars?
a. the young artists

Up, up and away!


Martin Halstead is only 19, but he already owns an airline company. Alpha One
Airways will make its first flight on 14 December this year. The plane will

204 - Lưu Hoang Tri


fly from the Isle of Man (an island between England and Ireland) to Edinburgh, the
capital of Scotland. It won‟t carry a lot of passengers because it is a small plane. The
journey will take about 45 minutes. Tickets will be cheap and passengers won‟t get any
food or drink on the flight. Will the company make money? Nobody knows - but most
people think that Martin Halstead will be successful one day.
When will Alpha One Airways make its first flight?

Where will the plane fly from?

Where will it fly to?

Will it carry a lot of passengers? Why or why not?

How long will the journey take?

Will the passengers get any food or drink?

II. Read the text, and then answer the questions.


It is a computer drawing of the plane of the
future. British engineers and scientists have published
plans for a new hypersonic plane called the A2. It
will be very fast. At the
moment, a flight from London in the UK to
Sydney in Australia takes about twenty-one
hours but with the A2 the same flight will take
about four hours.
The flight will fly at 4,500 kilometres per hour and will fly at an altitude of over
10,000 metres.
It will carry 300 passengers but it won‟t have any windows because scientists
haven‟t found glass that is strong enough. It will be better for the environment than other
planes because the engines won‟t produce gases that cause pollution.
In the future, will people travel from London to Australia for the weekend? It‟s
possible! But how much will a ticket cost? The planners say that it won‟t be very
expensive - about £2,000. The A2 will be ready for its first flight next year. 1. How long
does it take the A2 plane to fly from London to Sydney?

2. What is the speed of the plane?

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 7 (không đáp án) - Unit 8:1 believe I can fly - 205
What is the altitude of the flight?

How many passengers can it carry?

How much does a ticket for the flight from London to Sydney cost?

Read the following passage, and then tick the correct answers: true (T), or false
(F).
Thinking about how we will be travelling in 10 or 20 years is very interesting. Will we
still be using planes or will we be flying our cars from Paris to London? Here are some
suggestions.
SkyTran
Currently being developed at NASA, SkyTran looks like
the monorail at Disney World. Moving at 240km/h and using
small amount of energy, it could be the future of city
transportation. SkyTran has the passenger capacity of a 6-
lane highway.
Flying cars
Zhu Wenxi and Lai Zexin, Chinese students, have designed a solar-powered flying
car that doesn‟t need a runway to take off. If you have about 2 hundred thousand dollars,
you will own this vehicle soon.
An electric minibus
The minibus Cameo, designed by Martin Pes, can carry
32 passengers but it is small enough to get its way out of a
traffic jam. Its electric motor and low weight mean that it can
be recharged in seconds while
stopping and it has zero emission.
An eco-taxi
Taxis are bad for the environment and traffic jams. We enter the eco-taxi, and individual
taxis form a train powered by solar panels.
True False
SkyTran is fast but cannot be used as a means of transportation in □ □
the city.
Flying cars designed by two Chinese students run on solar energy. □ □
Flying cars don‟t need a long runway to take off. n ■ □
Because it is small, an electric minibus can avoid traffic jams. □
Several eco-taxis can form a line moving together, using □
solar energy.

IV. Read the text, and mark the sentences T (true), or F (false).
Crazy ways of getting around - past, present and future
Ever since the horse and buggy, people have been inventing new ways of travelling -
some more effective than others. Here are three of them.
1 Past The C5
„Imagine a vehicle that can drive you five miles for a penny. A vehicle that needs no
petrol, just a battery.‟ This might sound like an amazingly good idea now, but back in
1985, when Clive Sinclair invented the C5, people weren‟t so sure. „It will be the answer
to our inner-city traffic problems,‟ explained the marketing executives. „You won‟t need
a driving licence. Anyone can drive it, whether you are 14 or 40.‟ The problem was, the
C5 didn‟t work well in the British climate and could be dangero us on wet roads.
2 Present The Segway
Its inventor, Dean Kamen, confidently predicted that the Segway „will be to the car - what
the car was to the horse and buggy‟. Despite sales predictions of 40,000 a year when it
appeared in 2001, sales have been dis appointingly low. But the Segway might not be a
total failure.
The police in some European countries use them (thought probably not in highspeed car
chases), and they are popular in theme parks, warehouses and some airports. You aren‟t
allowed to use them on public roads in many European countries, though that might
change and sales could then increase dramatically.
3 Future The Uno
Canadian teenager Ben Gulak has recently won an award
for the best new invention of the future - the Uno. He has
already appeared on American television to demonstrate
his unique electric vehicle. It looks exactly like a motor
scooter except the wheels are beside each other. A
computerised system keeps the vehicle carefully
balanced. You can easily ride it - it has absolutely no
controls. There is only an on-off switch. To move it, you
move your body. To go forward, you simply lean
forward. To stop it, you lean back. You lean left or

right to go round a comer. „People really seem to like it,‟ says Gulak. With
the right business help, the Uno might become a common sight on our roads in
the future.
In 1985 people welcomed the idea of an environmentally friendly car. _________
The C5 failed partly because it was dangerous in bad weather. _______________
Dean Kamen predicted that Segways would be more popular than cars. _____
4. They‟ve sold more Segways than they expected. ___
Ben Gulak has placed advertisements for the Uno on US TV.
6. The driver doesn‟t have to operate any controls on the Uno. ___

number of ________________ supplying electricity for people around the world
has increased steadily.
VI. Read the following passage carefully, then write True (T) or False (F) for each
statement.
Solar energy has been used for generating electricity since 1954. Solar panels are
installed on the roofs of houses to turn the energy of the sun into the electricity that people
can use for heating, cooking, lighting and many other purposes. In order to get solar
energy what we need are solar panels and the sun. One of the advantages of solar energy
is that solar panels are totally silent and non -polluting. However, solar energy also has
some disadvantages. We can only generate solar energy during the daytime because the
system depends on sunlight.
The main disadvantage of solar energy is that solar panels are expensive.
Scientists are doing their best to reduce the cost of solar panels so that more and more
people can use this environmentally friendly source of energy.
1. People use solar panels to turn the energy of the sun into the electricity. ________
2. People can get solar energy without the sun. ___ _
More and more people aren‟t able to use solar energy if solar panels are
expensive. ___
4. Solar energy can do harm to people‟s health. ___
VII. Read the text, and mark the sentences T (true) or F (false).
Green Energy
Fossil fuels are used to generate most of the world‟s energy, and they are in different
forms. For example, coal may be burned in a power plant to generate electricity, but gas is
burned in a car‟s engine to make it run. Neither of these two sources is considered green
energy because they produce a lot of pollution when burned.
When green energy is renewable, this means a person can replace the same amount of
energy that was consumed by that person within that person‟s lifetime. While it took
millions of years to create the fossil fuels that we now bum - fossil fuels are non-
renewable.
Wind power and solar power are two excellent sources of green energy. Once the
production of the necessary parts of wind turbines and solar panels has been complete,

208 - Lưu Hoang Tri


there is nearly no pollution in producing energy. This is the reason why these are the top
green sources that give US hope for a cleaner and greener future.
Fossil fuels Create pollution when they are used as an energy source. ___________
2. Fossil fuels are finally going to run out. ________
3. Solar energy is not renewable. ________
4. Wind energy pollutes the environment terribly. ________
The sun and the wind are the top two sources of green energy. ________________
For green energy sources, pollution is created when their parts are produced.

7. A non-green source of energy is polluting. -


8. Green sources of energy will not make the air cleaner. ________
VIII. Read the text, and do the following tasks.
Energy answers
As the global demand for energy increases, countries all over the world are responding to
the threat of an energy crisis by developing renewable energy sources to replace fossil
fuels. Here‟s that‟s happening:
Wind power in Turkey
Turkey already has more than a dozen wind farms -
electrical generating stations that are powered by the i I f
wind. The benefits of wind power are so great that . ..J, . '

movement of ocean waves. Amazingly, the machinery that turns water power into
electricity is actually underwater, so it doesn‟t harm the beautiful view. The electricity is
used to power a factory that takes the salt out of seawater and turns it into fresh water for
drinking and agriculture.
Creating sustainable energy supplies around the world is a huge challenge, but with work
already in progress, we‟re on our way.
Task 1. Choose the correct answer.
