Vietnamese food culture varies by regions from the north to the south. In Northern VietNam,
Vietnamese food is characterized by light and balanced flavours with the combination of many
ingredients. Northerners have been using many kinds of meats like pork, beef, and chicken to cook;
besides, some kinds of freshwater fish, crustaceans, and other mollusks like shrimps, crabs, and oysters,
etc. Many famous dishes of Viet Nam are cooked with these ingredients such as Bun Rieu, Pho, Bun
Rieu, Bun Thang, Bun Cha, Banh Cuon, etc.
Then, food culture in Central and Southern Viet Nam has developed suitable flavors in each region.
In Central Viet Nam, the regional cuisine of Central Viet Nam is famous for its spicy food, which
differs from two other parts with mostly non-spicy food. Hue cuisine is typical Central Viet Nam’s food
culture. Dishes of Hue cuisine are decorative and colorful, which expresses the influence of the
Vietnamese royal cuisine in the feudal period. Food in the region is often decorated sophisticatedly and
used with chili peppers and shrimp sauces, namely, Bun Bo Hue, Banh xeo, or Banh beo, etc.
In Southern Viet Nam, the region is characterized by warm weather and fertile soil, which creates
favorable conditions for planting a variety of fruit, vegetables and livestock. Thus, food in the region is
often added with garlic, shallots and fresh herbs. Particularly, Southerners are favored of sugar; they add
sugar in most dishes. Here, there is also an influence of western and Asian cuisines on southern food,
such as influences from China, India, France, and Thailand.

VIII. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
A World of Sausage
All over the world, all different cultures created interesting processed meat products, and one of the
most popular is undoubtedly sausage.
To begin with, sausage making may be considered disgusting as it deals with using various animal
parts. Since meat is ground up, certain cuts and parts of an animal that wouldn’t be served in their
original forms can be used. Literally, this means animal parts such as noses, ears, and other less
appetizing areas of an animal’s body. Very often, the ground up meat and flesh is mixed with a certain
percentage of fat, along with spices and other fillers. After being mixed well, this meat mixture is then
stuffed into the cleaned intestines of the animal, which are then sealed at both ends. The result is
sausage.
The meats used in sausages come from a variety of animals, although beef and pork are by far the
favourites. In some cultures, sausage made from the meat of horses is considered a delicacy. When
sausages are cooked, the cooking process sometimes adds to the flavour. While boiling is probably the
simplest method, smoking sausages will add a lot of smoky flavour.
Next time you bite into a sausage, it is probably best not to think too much about how it became the
tasty thing you are eating. After all, you don’t want to ruin a good snack.
1. Where is the mixture of meat placed?
8
A.Inside a plastic package B. Inside a cleaned intestine
C. Inside a refrigerator D. Inside a metal container
2. What won’t be served in their original forms?
A.Certain cuts and parts of animals B. Spices and fillers
C. Sausages of all typesD. Intestines of an animal
3. What are by far the favourite meats for making sausages?
A. Chicken B. Horse meat C. Cuts of lamb D. Beef and pork
4. What is the simplest method of cooking sausages?
A. Grilling B. Smoking C. Boiling D. Baking
5. What advice is given in the passage?
A.Be careful when making sausages.
B.Don’t think too much about what you are eating when eating sausages.
C. Try not to use too much fat in the meat mixture when making sausages.
D. Make sure intestines are cleaned before packing with meat.

IX. Choose the word or phrase among A, B, Cor D that best fits the blank space in the following

World BBQ
To some people, there is nothing more appetizing than the smell of meat sizzling over an open fire.
Throughout the world, people love to eat barbecue because it lets them together with friends and family
to enjoy a meal that brings them backto their caveman roots. Cooking over coals or an open flame
makes people feel more sociable.
Most countries have barbecue traditions, and they usually take place on national holidays. In the
United States, it is a tradition to have a barbecue of hamburgers and hot dogs on July 4, which is
Independence Day. In Taiwan, people get together to eat barbecue during the Moon Festival, and the
smell of burning coal is in the air all day.
In South America, and in Argentina in particular, barbecue is a way of life. All sorts of meats
andsausages are put on a large grill together over hot coals. Barbecue is even considered the national
dish in Argentina, and it is given the name asado in Portuguese. This means not only the dish, but also
the social event that surrounds an Argentinian barbecue.
When a person speaks about Turkish and Middle Eastern barbecue, the kebab immediately comes
to mind. The tradition of taking different meats, and sometimes vegetables as well, and spearing them
with a sharp stick called a skewer has crossed cultural lines today. Practically anywhere in the English-
speaking world, the thought of shish-kebab will make barbecue lovers’ mouths water.

From bush food to barbecues

12
Australia is a huge country and it has a lot of different kinds of food. In the past, the Aboriginal
people of Australia ate animals like crocodiles and some insects like the witchetty grub. Aboriginal
Australians travelled around the Australian countryside, or ‘bush’, to find food.
When the first British and Irish people moved to Australia in the 1830s, they brought sheep and
cows from Europe. They also brought traditional English and Irish recipes. Many of these recipes, like
fish and chips and meat pies, are still popular today. They also created new Australian recipes such as
the pavlova (a fruit dessert - named after a Russian dancer) and damper (a bread cooked in the bush).
After 1945, a lot of people came to live in Australia fromcountries like Italy, Germany, Greece,
Thailand and India. They brought recipes with them and Australians began to eat and drink different
things. People started to drink espresso coffee and eat Mediterranean and Asian food.
A lot of modern Australians love cooking with fresh food. They often cook food on barbecues in
their gardens or on the beach. Today more people also eat Aboriginal food like kangaroo and emu. Mark
Olive, an Aboriginal chef, has a popular TV cookery programme about traditional bush food. There are
always new recipes to try in Australia!

Insects on the Menu
Humans have a long history of eating insects, and it turns out that they can be a very nutritious part
of a person’s regular diet. Insects have a lot of protein, and they are often easier to catch than prey
animals. Therefore, it is no wonder that when our ancient ancestors saw some tasty worms or grubs
wiggling on the ground, they made a quick snack of them.
In Thailand, insects are a regular part of the street food that can be found. The different insects that
people snack on are crickets, grasshoppers, giant water bugs, and assorted worms. They are often deep-
fried and salted, so they have a crunchy texture that makes them a perfect snack food. If you can get past
the fact that you are eating a cricket, it will crunch in your mouth just like a corn chip!
For a lot of people, however, it is difficult to get over the fear of eating insects. People tend to see
insects as invaders, especially when they are crawling on the food that we are about to eat. Therefore,
being able to eat insects without feeling disgusted is cultural. Some people cannot eat French cheese or
stinky tofu because they weren’t brought up doing so. To many of us, insects fall right into that
category, making it difficult to even try them.
If given the chance, though, be courageous. Insects can be nutritious and tasty, so long as you can
get over the “yuck” factor.

A. water bugs B. grasshoppers C. beetles D. crickets

A. France B Thailand C. Britain D. All of the above
5. What advice is given in the passage?
A. Be courageous B. Eat very cautiously

people who want to start their own blogs. Wednesday Chef has great pictures of its food, as well as
interesting pictures of Berlin. The blog got its name because in the past, newspapers published their

Son Doong Cave in Viet Nam - Good Morning America

Son Doong Cave and Swallow Cave (En Cave) were recorded and broadcast on Good Morning
America - a programme of ABC Television (USA). By being broadcast on Good Morning America
(ABC Television), Son Doong Cave would be introduced widely to international travellers.
This is a good chance for Quang Binh tourism to promote the image of Son Doong - the biggest
cave in Viet Nam - to travellers around the world. Therefore, the film crew worked in the most
favourable conditions. The programme was directly broadcast on satellite in May 2015.
The cave is a part of the underground system connecting over 150 other caves in Viet Nam near
Viet Nam - Lao border with many caves such as Phong Nha Cave.
Son Doong Cave is compared equally to Mount Everest in terms of attraction. The biggest natural
cave in the world is appreciated to be an interesting destination for a several-day tour, including
exploring underground rivers, caves and camping... The overwhelming natural landscapes inside Son
Doong Cave create an attraction by majestic and magnificent scenes. It takes months to end up a cave’s
round. In addition, the condition to join tours in Son Doong Cave is extremely high? Adventurers must
be in good mental and physical health to conquer the cave. Son Doong, the biggest cave in Viet Nam,
along with other attractions in Quang Binh, is an attractive destination for travelers, especially those
who are fans of natural exploration. The first exploration tour was held in early August 2013. The first
tour consisted of 6 people from the US, Russia, Australia, and Norway. They underwent 7 days and 6
nights to explore Son Doong Cave. There are a large number of tourists registering for next tours since

Taking a Working Holiday
One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel is the lack offunds.
During summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they are able to take on part-time jobs, but the
money they make is just a drop in the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example,
traveling to Australia from Viet Nam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to a lot of
students wanting to travel, it can seem out of reach.
For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular, however, they are in
luck. Although many countries offer working holidays, these two countries are well- known for offering
them. When a young person signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the round-trip
airfare to get to either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals. Once he is there, a
job awaits where he can earn some money.
Many of the jobs require little or no experience, such as picking fruit or working in a busy pub out
in the countryside. Some of the jobs require more experience that most people are unlikely to have, such
as being a certified welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That shouldn't discourage you, though,
because there is always something to be found if you search hard enough.
There are many websites that advertise working holidays in Australia and New Zealand. If you have
the courage and are looking for a way to make a little money and see the world, it might be just the
ticket you were looking for.

X. Read the passage and answer the questions.


In 1761, an artificial waterway opened. It joined a coal-mining area with the port of Manchester. This
was England’s first man-made waterway, or ‘canal’. Soon the price of coal in this part of the country went
down, and the owner of the Bridgewater canal became rich.
In the late 18th century landowners and businessmen built many new canals to make money. There was
no canal plan for the country, but the canals completely changed the transport of heavy goods in England.
Prices of factory goods went down because transport cost less than before. One horse could now pull 50 tons
on a canal boat. Before, it could pull less than one ton on a road cart. The canal network was a very
important part of the Industrial Revolution in Britain, but canals had only a short life. In the mid 19 th century,
the new railways became the most modern form of transport.
The men who built the canals were called ‘navvies’. They moved around country in groups from canal to
canal. Ordinary people did not like the navvies, because they wore strange clothes, had no real homes, and
because they often drank too much beer.
The Nottingham and Beeston Canal had two parts. It opened in 1796 and was an important six-mile link
in the Trent Navigation - a system of canals and rivers which joined the Midlands with the River Humber
and the port of Hull. This carried goods from inland factories to the sea. Now it is no longer a working canal.
It is a place for people who like walking or fishing.

instance, if you are looking for the meaning of a verb, check to see if the verb can be used in a passive

of a word. It is particularly formal or informal, or used in certain word (4)

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


Five Ways To Improve Your Spoken English At Home
First, you should improve your English pronunciation because good pronunciation will help people
understand your spoken English clearly, even if you don’t know many words. Second, most English
learners read too much and listen too little. If you want to improve your English speaking, spend more
time listening! Listen to the audio while you read the text, then read the text out loud, trying to imitate
the pronunciation you hear in the audio.
Then, reading English texts out loud will train your mouth and lips to pronounce English words
more naturally. I suggest reading every text out loud twice. The first time, read slowly and focus on
pronouncing each word correctly. Circle the words that are difficult to pronounce and repeat each one
ten times. The second time, read faster and focus on making your English flow, speaking each sentence
with a natural rhythm.
In addition, whenever you learn a new word, try saying it in a complete sentence. If you do this
with every new English word you learn, it will help you speak English in complete sentences more
naturally.
Finally, if you don’t have contact with native English speakers, watch TV shows and films in
English with English subtitles to learn English conversation patterns.
Task 1. Answer the following questions.
1. Why should we improve our pronunciation?
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
2. What should we do while listening to English?
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
3. What are the functions of reading the text our loud twice?

________________________________________________________________________________

The Importance of English in Today's World
English was originally the language of England, and soon it has become the primary orsecondary
language of many former British colonies such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and India.
Nowadays, it is the most international language in the world. There an several factors that make the
English language essential to communication in our current time.
First of all, it is the most common foreign language. This means that two people who come from
different countries (for example, a Mexican and a Swede) usually use English as a common English to
communicate. English is also essential to the field of education. In many countries, children are taught
and encouraged to learn English as a second language. At the university level, students in many
countries study almost all their subjects in English in order to make the material more accessible to

Englishplays an important role in everyday life in India. In India with innumerable regional
languages in different state, English serves as the common language in the country.Most office-goers
know English, but many of them do not know other languages besides their mother-tongue or regional
language. Thus, they communicate with each other in English for their everyday work.
The importance of English in education and student’s life cannot be denied. English remains a
major medium of instruction in schools. There are large numbers of books that are written in English
language. English is an important language for inter-state communications. Modem India has many
large states. People of each state converse in their own language and often cannot speak or understand
the regional language of other people. In such cases, English becomes the link between these people. So,
we cannot deny the importance of English in modem India.

Every day distances between different countries seem less. For this reason, it is becoming more and
more important to know foreign languages, especially English.
One billion people, about 20% of the world's population, speak English today. 400 million people
speak English as their first language. For the other 600 million people, it is either a second language or a
foreign language.
English is the first language in the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Australia as well
as New Zealand. It is also one of the official languages in Canada, the Irish Republic and the Republic
of South Africa. English is spoken in more than 60 countries as a second language. It is used by the

and faxes are sent in English. 60% of all international telephone calls are made in English. More than
60% of all scientific journals are printed in English.

XI. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Have you ever noticed advertisements which say “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks, or your
money back. From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send....” and so on? Of course,
it never happens quite like that. One’s mother language is easier to learn, but it also requires a lot of
practice to be fluent. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War, people
usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature of that country.
Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year many millions of people
start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try it at home, with books and records of tapes;
some use radio for television programmes; some use computers and network; others go to evening
classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, it will take a long time, like learning a foreign
language at school. A few people try to learn the language fast by studying for 6 or more hours aday. It
is clearly easier to learn thelanguage in the country where it is spoken. However, most people cannot
afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For
example, scientists and doctors chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language.
Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help,
but they cannot do the student’s work for him.

A.have to pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks

XIII. Read the passage below and do the tasks.
Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the dominant
language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around 1350, after having
incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the Norman invasion of 1030. Until
the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not extended even as far as
Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two centuries, English began to spread
around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work.
Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became established and grew in various parts of the world. As
these communities proliferated, English gradually became the primary language of international business,
banking, and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in English.
Two-thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main language of technology,
advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers. Today there are more than 700 million
English users in the world, and over half of these are non native speakers, constituting the largest number of
non-native users than any other language in the world.
1. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The number of non-native users of English
B. The French influence on the English language
C. The expansion of English as an international language
D. The use of English for science and technology
2. Approximately when did English begin to be used beyond England?
A. In 1066 B. Around 1350 C. Before 1600 D. After the 1600s
3. According to the passage, all of the following contributed to the spread of English around the world

XIV. Read the text carefully, then decide whether the following statements are True or False
LEARNING ENGLISH
59
It is not easy for adult students of English to improve their accent. Unlike children, who are flexible,
adults often find it hard to change the way they speak. This is why even the top, or smartest adult students
have difficulty with pronunciation. There are several things that an international student can do to improve
his or her pronunciation.
One method is to sign up for a pronunciation class. Studying pronunciation can help students to
understand the rules of English, but in order to practice speaking, students often need to be exposed to
English outside the classroom as well. This is why many students say that studying in an English-speaking
country greatly affects their English. Living with native speakers can help students to learn new vocabulary
as well as improve their accents. International students can also learn important cultural information. This
can help to prevent misunderstandings that can occur when people from different cultures live together.
1. Adult students of English cannot improve their accents because they are __________ slow to
change.
2. Most young students are able to change their pronunciation easily. __________
3. Attending a pronunciation class can be very helpful to adult learners who __________ have
problems with their pronunciation.

classroom.

Every year, students in many countries learn English. Some of these students are young children. Others
are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others study by themselves. A few learn English just
by hearing the language in films, on television, in the office or among their friends. But not many are lucky
enough to do that. Most people must work hard to learn another language.

Spanish.

VII. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, Cor D for each question.
Turning Food into Art
For many of us, food isn’t that important. However, for a few people, food is very important. For
these people, meals are a kind of art.
These people are interested in something called “haute cuisine”. Haute cuisine is French for “high
cooking”. You can usually find haute cuisine in fancy French hotels and high level restaurants.
Haute cuisine has changed over the years, but the most important parts have remained the same.
Haute cuisine meals are almost always very complicated, and they take a very long time to make.
Usually, an haute cuisine meal has very many small dishes, instead of a few large ones. Also, with haute
cuisine dishes, the appearance is very important. Of course, an haute cuisine dish must taste wonderful,
but that is not enough. An haute cuisine dish must also look beautiful. Another very important part of
haute cuisine is wine. Chefs and customers always try to select a wine that is a perfect match for their
meal. The wine that people drink with haute cuisine is often very rare. You will not be surprised to hear
that haute cuisine dishes are almost always very expensive.
Haute cuisine is traditionally French, but other countries have similar concepts of food. People
often compare Japanese kaiseki to haute cuisine. Kaiseki is another very complicated, very high level
kind of food. In Japan, kaiseki is also considered a kind of art. When Japanese chefs prepare kaiseki,
they don’t just consider the taste of the food. They also consider the food’s texture, colour, and
appearance. Chefs even match the colour of the food to the colour of the plate and the chopsticks. Of
course, although haute cuisine and kaiseki share many similarities, the food itself is quite different.
If you ever get the chance to try kaiseki or haute cuisine, remember one thing: You are not just
having a meal; you are enjoying a very special kind of art.
36. What can we say about the wines that people drink with haute cuisine?
A. Theyall come from France. B. They are all quite common.
C.They are always red wine. D. They are usually rare.
37. What is true about the dishes in haute cuisine?
A.Haute cuisine usually has many small dishes.
B.Haute cuisine usually has just a few large dishes.
C. Haute cuisine usually has many large dishes.
D. Haute cuisine usually has just a few small dishes.
38. What does the fifth sentence of the third paragraph mean?
A.Haute cuisine has to taste good, but it has to be good in other ways, too.
B.Haute cuisine only has to taste good.
C. Haute cuisine has to look good, but it doesn’t have to taste good.
D. Every haute cuisine dish tastes the same.
39. What does the passage NOT say about haute cuisine?
A. It is very expensive.
64
B.It takes a short time to make.
C. It is very complicated.
D.It is usually served in fancy hotels and high level restaurants.
40. What does the passage say about kaiseki and haute cuisine?
A. The food is the same in both. B. People never care about them.
C. People often compare them. D. Haute cuisine is older than kaiseki.

VII. Read the passage and do the tasks that follow.


Space Tourism means ordinary members of the public buying tickets to travel to space and back.
Like any other business, once space tourism gets started it will develop progressively. It may go through
several phases. Starting with a relatively small-scale and relatively high-priced "pioneering phase", the
scale of activity will grow and prices will fall as it develops. Finally, it will become a mass-market
business, like aviation today.
During the pioneering phase, customers will be relatively few, from hundreds per year to thousands
per year; prices will be high, $50,000 and up; and the service will be nearer to "adventure travel" than to
luxury hotel-style.

71
The mature phase will see demand growing from thousands of passengers per year to hundreds of
thousands per year. Tickets to orbit will cost less and flights will depart from many different airports.
Orbital facilities will grow from being just clusters of modules to large structures constructed in orbit for
hundreds of guests, permitting a wide range of orbital entertainments.
During the mass phase, ticket prices will fall to the equivalent of a few thousand US dollars, and the
number of customers will be from hundreds of thousands to millions of passengers per year. And
aviation is still growing fast at today's level of 1 billion passengers per year. So there is no reason to
suppose that space travel will ever stop growing. There is certainly no limit to the possible destinations.
Task 1. Read the passage again, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
T F
1.When space tourism develops, the ticket prices will drop.  
2.During the pioneering phase, customers have to pay high costs in order tostay in luxury  
hotel-style spaceships.
3.During the mature phase, orbital structures made on the Earth will provide a wide range  
of entertainments.
4.The more space tourism develops, the less aviation grows.  
5.Maybe some day in the future, space tourism is as popular as aviation.  
6.Space travel will send passengers to destinations that know no limit.  
Task 2. Finds words in the passage to match these definitions.
1.gradually (paragraph 1): _____________
2.the flying of aircraft (paragraph 1): _____________
3.a unit that forms part of something bigger (paragraph 3): _____________

VIII. Read the text, and answer the questions.


First Vietnamese-American Astronaut
Born in Saigon and raised in Paris, Trinh Huu Chau (later Eugene H. Trinh) moved to France with
his family in 1952 when he was only two.
In his teenager years,Dr. Trinh attended Lycee Michelet in Paris. There, he focused on maths and
science, because like many teens at that time, he wanted to become a pilot. Dr. Trinh left Paris for New
York to attend Columbia University in 1968. Upon finishing his Bachelor of Science degree in 1972, he
pursued his Master degree in 1974, and Doctorate in 1977 from Yale University.
He spent 20 years at California Institute of Technology as a physicist carrying out research
primarily in the fields of Fluid Physics and Applied Acoustics. By 1999, he worked as a Senior
Executive, and focused on various science projects for NASA. Over the years, he has worked on a dozen
of space-based flight investigations and the Space Shuttle, and ultimately flew aboard the Shuttle
Columbia in 1992. Dr. Eugene H. Trinh never expected that he would make history as the first
Vietnamese-American physicist to fly aboard NASA Space Shuttle Columbia mission STS-50 in 1992.
“The sight and sounds of the space shuttle always brings back a rush of great memories of good
friends, and the excitement of the past youth,” said Dr. Trinh.

A Mission to Mars
Have you ever had a dream about traveling to another planet in our solar system? If you have, there
is an actual programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Mars in 2023.
Known as the Mars One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one-way mission to colonize
Mars. Those chosen people will have to be ready to say good-bye to the earth forever, as there will not
be a return trip.
For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be
living the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that
allow them to get along. Second, the living quarters that they will have won’t be very spacious, so they
will have to deal with that condition as well. If they feel homesick, they will only be able to
communicate with people back on the earth via e-mail and videos and audio sent back and forth.
However, there won’t be any real-time communication. Even at the speed of light, communication
between the earth and Mars takes about 20 minutes.
Whether the Mars One Mission will actually happen is the big question that a lot of people are
asking. There is an enormous skepticism in the science community, and Wired magazine gave the
mission a miserable score of two out of ten on its probability scale. However, for those who dream to go
to Mars, at least they can say there is a possibility that it could happen.
1. What will NOT happen to the people who go on the Mars One Mission?
A.They will live in quarters that don’t have a lot of space inside.
B. They will return to the earth
C.They will communicate with people on the earth.
D.They will have to live with other people.
2. Which of the following is considered miserable?
A.A personality of people taking part in the programme
B.A mission of astronauts to the ISS
C.A crew on board of the Mars One Mission
D.A score of the programme on the probability scale
3. How long will it take for a message to come back from Mars?
A.Almost immediately B. About an hour
C.Around 20 minutes D. Only a few seconds
4. What will NOT be spacious?
A.The mission B. The living quarters
C.The spaceship D. The magazines
5. Who might like to go on this mission?
A. People with angry personalities B. People who don’t like to communicate
C.People who get along with others D. People who get homesick easily

The Shuttle Era Comes to an End
The set of Space Shuttle missions run by NASA captivated the world and proved that reusable
spacecraft could be used to bring astronauts and cargo into space. The Space Shuttle programme had a
total of six separate orbiters, five of which actually went into space. The first-made orbiter was only
used to gather data about how the shuttles would glide back to the earth. This shuttle would be brought
up into the air by a specially modified Boeing 747 and released to glide down without any power of its
own.
The Space Shuttle Era ran from the first launch on April 12, 1981, and ended when the final shuttle
landed on July 21, 2011. During this time, there were 135 missions flown. Of the five shuttles that did
go into space, two met with disasters that killed all the crew members aboard.
The first disaster happened on January 28, 1986when Space Shuttle Challenger ran into severe
problems and exploded less than two minutes after take-off. It was a major blow to NASA as a school
teacher was on board the orbiter, and the launch was being watched by children from schools across the
United States. The second disaster came on February 1, 2003. After having completed its mission, Space
Shuttle Columbia was returning to the earth from space. During damage done to a wing during its
launch, the orbiter disintegrated as it hit the earth’s atmosphere during re-entry.
Because the Space Shuttle programme was running, it largely made possible the construction of the
International Space Station (ISS). The shuttles brought astronauts to the station, replenished supplies,
and carried actual pieces to the Space Station up from the earth.
As the Space Shuttle Era came to an end, many space lovers have been left wondering, “What’s
next?” There is still plenty to explore, so we will all just have to wait and see.

Voyager 1: Boldly Going Where None Has Gone
The Voyager 1 spacecraft was launched in 1977 to study the outer planets of our solar system. It
sent back some of the iconic photographs of Jupiter and other outer planets that were the best views ever
seen and certainly much better than any of the views astronomers were able to get with Earth-based
telescopes. However, the mission of the spacecraft turned out to be more than just looking at planets.
In August of 2012, Voyager 1 became the first man-made object to leave our solar system. It has
escaped the gas bubble from the sun and is moving in the space between stars. It is in territory that has
never been explored.
The Voyager 1 spacecraft is traveling at about 38,000 miles per hour and has a very small amount
of computer memory as part of its equipment. As a comparison, an average smartphone has 270,000
times more memory than Voyager 1, and the spacecraft doesn’t have a processor like anything we have
77
today. When Voyager 1 sends messages to the earth, they take about 17 hours to reach us traveling at
the speed of light. Voyager 1 is currently more than 18 billion kilometers away from the earth.
There is enough power on Voyager 1 to power the craft and send measurements from its science
instruments until 2020. At that point, some instruments will be shut down over the years until 2025. It is
possible that information from the craft could still be received as far out as 2036. It is no wonder that
Voyager 1 has been hailed as “the little spacecraft that could”.

SETI: The Dream of Life in Space
People have always gazed up at the stars in wonder. Their imaginations are filled with possibility as
they think carefully how large the universe is and whether or not we are alone in it. Of all the stars out

78
there, are there intelligent beings on a planet circling one of the stars looking back at us and wondering
the same thing?
It is difficult to comprehend how many stars there are, or even to guess the possibilities of their
being intelligent life. Yet our interest in finding out is so strong that the search has been going on for
over a century. What we consider the modem Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) began
around 1960.
The SETI project not what many people think it is. A simple explanation is that scientists study
electromagnetic waves that are being emitted throughout the universe. When they are looking at these
waves, they have a good idea of what are considered natural, random patterns the waves take. Therefore,
they are searching for anything that does not appear to be randomly. If they were able to find something
non-random, they would believe that an intelligent sources of some kind must be creating it. Inother
words, intelligent life would have to exist somewhere else in the universe.
While the SETI project will continue lo listen for signals from an intelligent sources, other
progammes hope to find any source of life. The Mars rovers will continue to search for dry lake beds
and other areas on the Red Planet that may have once held life. If any lifecan be found outside the earth,
then we are probably on our way to finding life that could be similar to our own.
1. How long has the search for life in outer space been going on?
A. For a few years B. Not over two decades
C. Since 1960 D. More than a hundred years
2. What are the people in the SETIproject listening for?
A. Random waves B.Specific voice in the universe
C. Patterns that are not random D. Special time signals
3. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?
A. People have long wondered if we are alone in the universe.
B. Scientists searching for any form or life that is found elsewhere than the earth.
C.Signals from intelligent sources will most likely be random.
D. The roverson Mars are looking for signs of life.
4. When did the modernsearch for intelligent life begin?
A. It began around 1960.
B. It has been going on since the beginning of time.
C.There is no record of when it began.
D. It has not actually begun yet.
5. Why are people searching for intelligent life in space?
A. Because they want to meet aliens.
B. Because they have a strong interest in it.
C. Because it is the reason for people's existence.
D. Because life must exist somewhere else.

COMETS
Andy heard from his friends that a comet was coming. He knew that a comet was a space rock. Space
rocks seemed exciting. He wanted to watch it at night. All he had to do was go outside and watch. That was
easy enough.
That night, he put on a jacket and went outside. He looked around. He saw the moon, but he did not see
anything else. There were only a couple clouds, so that was not the problem. He could see some stars, but
nothing new or special. Where was the comet?
He called his friend on the phone. They talked about it. His friend told him where to look, but he still
didn’t see it. What was going on? Was he not special enough to see it? Were his eyes going bad? What was
he doing wrong?
Andy went to get his dad. Together, they looked up in the sky where it was supposed to be. Finally, after
several minutes of looking, he saw a fuzzy thing, brighter and bigger than a star, but nowhere near what he
expected.
“I thought it’d be like an extra moon or something.” Andy complained.
“It’s not big enough for that, and it still might be very far away.” Dad explained.
“I still wish I could see it better.”
Dad nodded and went inside. When he came back out, he had a telescope. Together, they focused in and
saw the comet a little better. It wasn’t much, but it helped.
“What else can we see?” Andy wondered.
Dad smiled and aimed the telescope over at the moon instead. That was cool. Seeing the craters and the
details of the moon up closer was nice.
Astronomy was interesting. Andy made sure to read more about it at school!
1. What was Andy excited to see in the sky?
A. rainbows B. clouds C. the moon D. a comet
2. What problem did Andy have when he tries to look at the comet?
A. There were too many and he couldn’t find the right one.
B. He couldn’t see it.
C. It was too bright to see anything.

A. constellations B. a planet C. the moon D. a comet

X. Read the text and do the task below.


SATURN
Saturn is the second-largest planet and is a gas giant like Jupiter. Under clouds of methane, hydrogen,
and helium, the sky slowly turns into a giant ocean of liquid chemicals. Saturn is the least dense planet in our
solar system; it is made mostly of hydrogen and helium. Because it is so lightweight and spins so quickly,
Saturn is not perfectly round like the other planets. Saturn is surrounded by thousands of small rings made of
rocks and ice. It also has 140 natural satellites, like moons and pieces of debris.

polar diameter; about 12,714 km Surface Area of the Earth is 510,065,600 km 2 of which 148,939,100 km2
(29.2%) is land and 361,126,400 km2 (70.8 %) is water.
The Earth rotates on its axis, an imaginary straight line through its centre. The two points where the axis
of rotation intersects the Earth’s surface are called as the poles, one of them is called the North Pole and the
other is known as the South Pole. One rotation with respect to Sun is completed in 24 hours, called a solar
day.

Space exploration is the investigation of the universe beyond the Earth’s atmosphere, by (1)
of manned and unmanned spacecraft. Despite the technological advancements achieved in the past,
84
space exploration was only (2) until the 20th century. The first successful orbital launch
was made by the Soviet Union in 1957 which was called “Sputnik”. When the topic “SPACE
EXPLORATION” is put (3) the table, a question has often been asked: “Why should we
spend money on NASA while there are so (4) problems here on Earth?” However, this
might be partially wrong since exploring the unknown may help us progress.
The advantages of space exploration include the materials (5) can be obtained from
outer space. For instance, asteroids have iron and nickel which could be utilized to satisfy the (6) for
metal. Therefore, numerous commercial companies have invested in developing technology for asteroid
mining. Several comets and asteroids (7) solid water in them. This water can be used for
astronauts and scientists in space stations. The water can also be broken down to hydrogen which can be
used as (8) for the rockets. Scientists also believe that dinosaurs disappeared because they
couldn’t go to (9) planet. Sooner or later a killer comet will again cross Earth’s path, threatening
all life. Fortunately, (10) we have knowledge about comets and space science, we will
be able to survive.

XIV. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
A MISSION TO MARS
Have you ever had a dream about traveling to another planet in our solar system? If you have, there is an
actual programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Mars in 2023. Known as the
Mars One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one-way mission to colonize Mars. Those chosen
people will have to be ready to say good-bye to the earth forever, as there will not be a return trip.
For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be living
the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that allow them
to get along. Second, the living quarters that they will have won’t be very spacious, so they will have to deal
with that condition as well. If they feel homesick, they will only be able to communicate with people back
on the earth via e-mail and videos and audio sent back and forth. However, there won’t be any real-time

85
communication. Even at the speed of light, communication between the earth and Mars takes about 20
minutes.
Whether the Mars One Mission will actually happen is the big question that a lot of people are asking.
There is an enormous skepticism in the science community, and Wired magazine gave the mission a
miserable score of two out of ten on its probability scale. However, for those who dream to go to Mars, at
least they can say there is a possibility that it could happen.
1. Who might like to go on this mission?
A. People who get along with others
B. People who get homesick easily
C. People with angry personalities
D. People who don't like to communicate
2. What will NOT happen to the people who go on the Mars One Mission?
A. They will communicate with people on the earth.
B. They will have to live with other people.
C. They will live in quarters that don’t have a lot of space inside.
D. They will return to do the earth.
3. What will NOT be spacious?
A. The spaceship B. The magazines
C. The mission D. The living quarters
4. Which of the following is considered miserable?
A. A crew on board of the Mars One Mission.
B. A score of the programme on the probability scale.
C. A personality of people taking part in the programme.
D. A mission of astronauts to the ISS.
5. How long will it take for a message to come back from Mars?
A. Around 20 minutes B. Only a few seconds
C. Almost immediately D. About an hour

VI. Read the passage and do the tasks that follow.


Women's Role in Contemporary Korea
In a traditional Korean society, women's roles were confined to the home. From a young age,
women were taught the virtues of subordination and endurance to prepare for their future roles as wife
and mother. Women, in general, could not participate in society as men did, and their role was limited to
household matters.
The situation began to change with the opening of the country to the outside world during the late
19 century. During this period modern schools were introduced, mostly by Western Christian
th

missionaries. Some of these schools were founded with the specific goal of educating women. These
educated women began to engage in the arts, teaching, religious work, and enlightening other women.
Women also took part in the independence movement against the Japanese occupation, and displayed as
much vigor, determination, and courage as the men.
With the establishment of the Republic of Korea in 1948, women achieved constitutional rights for
equal opportunities to pursue education, work, and public life. There is no doubt that the female labor
force contributed significantly to the rapid economic growth that Korea achieved during the past three
decades. An increasing number of women work in professional fields.
By 2004, among those graduating from elementary school, 99.5 percent of girls continued their
education in middle school. The comparable figure for high school and university was 87.6 percent.
In terms of characteristics of the female labor force, by 2004, 22.6 percent of female employees
were serving in professional or managerial positions.
With an increasing number of women entering professional jobs, the government passed the “Equal
Employment Act” in 1987 to prevent discriminatory practices against female workers in regard to hiring
and promotion opportunities.
Task 1. Read the passage again, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

1.In the past, from the young age girls were taught to follow their careers in society.  

VIII. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Men have played a significant role in American society as the main breadwinner, and protector of
the family. But the traditional role of men has slowly been transferred to women. Society is changing
with women going to college, and gaining jobs. It may even happen in several years’ time when women
are given sole earning responsibility in American society as the main breadwinner of the family. That is
due in part to women gained working privileges equal to men in the 1970’s.
Up until the 1970’s, men were the traditional family breadwinners, while women stayed at home,
raised the kids, made dinner every night, cleaned the house, and ran all of the errands. Men went to
work every day, making enough money to buy a nice home, buy a new car every so often.
Once women were afforded the opportunity to work in the same jobs men once held, men’s more
traditional foothold in the workplace was loosened. Women were given bigger jobs with more
responsibility, but women take jobs with major responsibly with less pay than men.

93
The role of men in American society is changing with more women going to college, and obtaining
careers; men are playing more untraditional roles at home.
Women are still giving birth to the kids, but are going to work to earn money to pay the bills, while
men are staying home raising the kids, running errands, cleaning, making dinner. Young children, boys
as well as girls, are being raised with dad at home taking care of the kids.
Millions of families are also raising their young with mom and dad sharing all of the
responsibilities. Today’s role of men in American society is more of a shared role, with a more
undefined role.
1. The traditional role of men was .

4. The shared role of men nowadays is .
A.the same as their traditional role B.cleaning the house, and raising the kids
C.going to work, and doing housework D.sharing responsibilities with women at work

VI. Read the passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
The concept of parental authority has changed. Today, no parent can take their children’s respect for
granted: authority has to be earned. Several studies have shown the following problems.
Trust: A lot of young people say their parents don’t trust them. Some of them have no privacy: their
parents read all their emails, and enter their rooms without knocking. All of these actions demonstrate
lack of respect.Consequently, these teenagers have little respect for their parents.
Communication: Hardly any teens discuss their problems with their parents. That’s because very few
teens feel their parents really listen to them. Instead, most parents tend to fire off an immediate response
to their kids’ first sentence.
Freedom: Interestingly, most rebels come from very authoritarian homes where kids have very little
freedom. Teens need fewer rules but they have to be clear and unchangeable. Also, if the mother and
father don’t agree about discipline, teens have less respect for both parents. They also need a lot of
support and a little freedom to take their own decisions. None of them enjoy just listening to adults.
Role models: Teens don’t have much respect for their parents if neither of them actually does things that
they expect their children to do. Like everybody, teens appreciate people who practise what they preach.
T F
1.Parents have to earn much money in order to have parental authority.  
2.That parents read their children’s email may be considered that they don’t have much  
trust in their children.

The Changing Role of Women in Filipino Society
When many people think of women in Asian culture, they think of a male dominated society where
women don’t have as many rights as their male counterparts. However, the Filipino are different.
Filipino women have always enjoyed greater equality than women in other nations in Southeast Asia.
For starters, Filipino women today serve as heads in the family arrangement, handling the money,
acting as religious mentors and even arranging marriages for their sons and daughters. This is a sharp
contrast to women being subjugated to their husbands.
This does not mean that they have equality everywhere. In the workplace, Filipino women are paid
less and are often hired for lower positions even if they are qualified to earn more money. On the home
front, women carry a heavy burden in the homes in order to support them financially while men can
keep their money and are not obligated to the family.
Thankfully, strides are being made to equalize this perception of inequality. Human Resources
Managements are seeing to it that a lot more women hold high ranking positions in large and small
organizations. More women are holding managerial positions in banks, government, and multinational
companies.
Even though they have had a female president, involvement in politics is not considered women’s
business, and many women still hold to the tradition that a woman cannot take a higher position than her
husband. Part of this mindset is due to the effect of colonization on Filipino women.
Like women in many parts of the world, Filipino women have had to fight for their proper place in
their society. They have worked hard to extend themselves beyond the confines of their homes and show
that they have the strength and power to control business and politics.

Do you ever think about what schools will be like in the future? Many people think that students will
study most regular classes such as maths, science and history online. Students will probably be able to these
subjects anywhere using a computer. What will happen if students have problem with a subject? They might
connect with a teacher through live videoconferencing. Expert teachers from learning centres will give
students help wherever they live.
Students will still take classes in a school, too. Schools will become places for learning social skills.
Teachers will guide students in learning how to work together in getting along with each other. They will
help students with group projects both in and out of the classroom.
Volunteer work and working at local businesses will teach students important life skills about the world
they live in. This will help students become an important part of their communities. Some experts say it will
take five years for changes to begin in schools. Some say it will take longer. Most people agree, though, that
computers will change education the way TVs and telephones changed life for people all over the world
years before.

Career Preparation
Although you may think you are too young to worry about your future career, it is important that
you start thinking about your life after high school right now so that you can take the steps necessary to
any career you may choose. Some of these steps include choosing the right high school, enrolling in the
necessary courses, earning good grades, getting work experience and building a resume. It can seem
overwhelming trying to choose a career before you complete high school, but always keep in mind that
it is never too late to change your career path and no one says you have to decide now.
There are lots of different factors that go into choosing a career path. To determine the occupation
you want to enter, you need to consider your interests, how long you want to be in school, how much
money you want to make, the type of work you want to do, the potential for job growth and job trends in
the industry - sounds like a lot, but that is just the tip of the iceberg.
Each day you make many decisions - what to wear, who to hang out with, how to spend your time
after school. Some of the decisions you make today can affect you for the rest of your life. Once you
have figured out the things you like to do and the things you do well, you can begin exploring careers
that include your interests and skills. Make a plan from the beginning, and once you have a plan, work
the plan. Do the steps along the way each year to keep on track toward graduation and higher education.

A. you have to decide it immediately B. it is necessary to have preparations

have to think about my career. I work as a fashion designer and will need to use a computer to design
clothes, so I’m going to do the Information Technology course. I can study dance and photography in
my free time.
Jack: I really like the idea of the performing arts course. I’m in a rock band and I love drama and music,
but my parents don’t like that idea at all, they don’t think it’s very useful for my career. They want me
to do the Information Technology course, but I already know a lot about computers and I don’t want to
spend my life working with computers. So I’ve decided to do the leisure and tourism course because
traveling is quite interesting, and it makes Mum and Dad happy because it’s a ‘real job’!
Susan: I really liked the idea of the sports studies course - it looks great - working with people and
doing something I enjoy, but if I do the part-time course it’s just too long! Four years studying three
evenings a week - it’s too much. I look at the childcare course too, but it’s working with really small
children, and I prefer older ones. So in the end, I didn’t choose any of these courses, I’m going to look
for another sports studies course at a different college, because I want to try to find something shorter.

There are as many kinds of careers as there are people. They vary greatly in the type of work involved
and in the ways they influence a person’s life. The kind of career you have can affect your life in many
ways. For example, it can determine where you live and the friends you make. It can reflect how much
education you have and can determine the amount of money you earn. Your career can also affect the way
you feel about yourself and the way other people act toward you. By making wise decisions concerning your
career, you can help yourself build the life you want. To make wise decisions and plans, you need as much
information as possible. The more you know about yourself and career opportunities, the better able you will
be to choose a satisfying career. People differ in what they want from a career. Many people desire a high
income. Some hope for fame. Others want adventure. Still others want to serve people and make the world a
better place. Before you begin to explore career fields, you should determine your values, your interests, and
your aptitudes (abilities). Most people are happiest in jobs that fit their values, interests and aptitudes. Each
person has many values, which vary in strength. For example, money is the strongest value for some people
– that is, wealth is more important to them than anything else. As a result, they focus their thoughts,
behavior, and emotions on the goal of earning a high income. Other values include devotion to religion,
taking risks, spending time with family, and helping others. People should understand their values prior to
making a career decision. You can develop an understanding of your values by asking yourself what is most

124
important to you and by examining your beliefs. For example, is it important to you to work as a member of
a team? Or would you rather be in charge or work alone? If working alone or being in charge is important to
you, independence is probably one of your primary values.

VII. Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each question.
We will probably never know who first sold a beef inside a bun, but there are lots of contenders for
having invented something similar.
Genghis Khan and his army of Mongol horsemen used to snack on raw beef which they kept underneath
their saddles. They also ground meat from lamb or mutton. This was fast food for busy warriors on
horseback at that time. When the Mongols invaded Russia, the snack became known as “Steak Tartare”. In
the 17th and 18th centuries trade between Germany and Russia gave rise to the “Tartare steak”, while the
“Hamburg steak” became popular with German sailors along the New York City harbor.
It’s speculated that the first “Hamburger steak” was served at Delmonico’s Restaurant in New York City
in 1834, but not in a bun. In 1885 Charlie “Hamburger” Nagreen served flattened meatballs between two
slices of bread. As late as 1904 Fletcher Davis of Athens, Texas, attracted much attention when he sold his
hamburgers at the St. Louis World’s Fair. Davis’s claim to having originated the hamburger has been
supported by both McDonalds and Dairy Queen.
Brothers Frank and Charles Menches may also have made a major contribution to hamburger history:
they sold ground pork sandwiches at the Erie Country Fair in New York, but one day in 1885, they were
forced to use chopped beef because their butcher had run out of pork. They mixed in some coffee and brown
sugar to beef p the taste and sold their “Hamburger Sandwiches”. The name “Hamburger” came from
Hamburg, New York, the location of the fair.
1. What was the Menches’ contribution to hamburger history?
A. They began to use chopped pork.
B. They changed the taste of pork.
C. They began to ground pork for sandwiches.
D. They used another meat and added flavors.
2. Which of the following is NOT stated about the Mongols in paragraph 2?
A. They kept lambs and mutton nearby.
B. They used to eat non-cooked meat.
C. They occupied the Russian territories.
D. They used to eat while riding a horse.
3. Where did “hamburger” get its name from?
A. A place B. The Germans C. A man D. A fair
4. Which of the following is stated in the passage?
A. Hamburger was first served in Germany.
B. Sailors brought hamburger steak to New York.
C. Tartar stake became popular in the 17th century.
D. Minced beef appeared in the 15th century.
5. Whom was “hamburger steak” invented by, according to paragraph 3?
