Part 2: Read the following passage and write your answers in complete
sentences to questions from 1 to 5 on the separate answer sheet. (20
points)

Skeletal muscle cells are formed when many smaller progenitor cells lump themselves
together to form long, straight, multinucleated fibers. Striated just like cardiac muscle,
these skeletal muscle fibers are very strong. Skeletal muscle derives its name from the
fact that these muscles always connect to the skeleton in at least one place. The motor
end-plate is the place where the skeletal muscle cell communicates with motor neurons.
Muscles contract when stimulated by signals from their motor neurons. Neurons are not
in direct contact with skeletal muscle cells; they meet at structures called synapses.
Instead they communicate by releasing chemical messengers called neurotransmitters
(acetylcholine) that diffuse across short distances (synaptic cleft) and bind with
receptors on the surface of the muscle cell in specialized regions called the motor end-
plate. Any disease or chemical which interferes with the transfer of information across
the synapse will result in the dysfunction of the affected skeletal muscle.

Question:
1. How are skeletal muscle cells formed?
2. How do skeletal muscles connect to the skeleton?
3. Where does communication occur between skeletal muscle cells and motor neurons?
4. How do muscles contract when stimulated?
5. What is the role of neurotransmitters in the communication between motor neurons
and skeletal muscle cells?

SECTION D: TRANSLATION:
MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
It is a potentially impairing disease in which your body’s immune system eats away at the
protective sheath (myelin) that covers your nerves, causing progressive degeneration of
some parts of the brain and spinal cord. Damage to myelin causes interference in the
communication between your brain, spinal cord, and other areas of your body.
This condition may result in degeneration of the nerves themselves, a process that’s not
reversible. Symptoms vary widely, depending on the amount of damage and the nerves
that are affected. People with severe cases of multiple sclerosis may lose the ability to
walk or speak clearly.
Multiple sclerosis can be difficult to diagnose early in the course of the disease because
symptoms often come and go – sometimes disappearing for months. Multiple sclerosis
has no cure. However, treatments may help treat MS attacks, manage symptoms, and
reduce progress of the disease.

Part 3:
EP is a complication of pregnancy in which the embryo attaches outside the uterus. Signs
and symptoms classically include abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. The pain may be
described as sharp, dull, or crampy and it can spread to the shoulder. Severe bleeding
may result in a fast heart rate, fainting, or shock. Commonly, the fetus is unable to survive
and causes the death of the women in the first trimester. Risk factors for EP include pelvic
inflammatory disease, often due to chlamydia infection, tobacco smoking, prior tubal
surgery, a history of infertility, the use of assisted reproductive technology, and the
repetition of EP. Most EPs which are known as tubal pregnancies occur in the Fallopian
tube. It can also occur in cervix, ovaries, or within the abdomen. Detection of ectopic
pregnancy is typically by blood test for human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and
ultrasound. An EP may be treated in different ways, such as methotrexate, laparoscopic
surgery, or laparotomy surgery.
*Note: EP (Ectopic pregnancy)

TRANSLATION:
Chứng đa xơ cứng
Nó là một bệnh có khả năng suy yếu mà ở đó hệ thống miễn dịch của cơ thể ăn mất vỏ bọc
bảo vệ (bao myelin) bao phủ các dây thần kinh, gây ra sự thoái hóa tiến triển ở một vài
phần của não và tủy sống. Chấn thương gây ra cho bao myelin ngăn cản quá trình truyền
tin giữa não, tủy sống và các vùng khác của cơ thể.
Tình trạng này có thể kết thúc bằng sự thoái hóa của chính các dây thần kinh, một quá
trình mà nó không thể đảo ngược. Các triệu chứng rất đa dạng, tùy thuộc vào mức độ chấn
thương và số lượng dây thần kinh bị ảnh hưởng. Các ca đa xơ cứng nghiêm trọng có thể
mất đi khả năng đi và nói rõ ràng.
Chứng đa xơ cứng có thể khó khăn trong việc chẩn đoán sớm trong quá trình bệnh bởi vì
các triệu chứng thường xuất hiện và biến mất – có khi biến mất tới vài tháng. Chứng đa
xơ cứng chưa có cách chữa bệnh. Tuy nhiên, các liệu pháp có thể giúp điều trị các cơn phát
bệnh của chứng đa xơ cứng, kiểm soát các triệu chứng và làm chậm tiến triển của bệnh.
