Ostriches
Ostriches are the largest and heaviest birds on earth. They can grow to be as tall as 9 feet and can
weigh as much as 250 pounds. Even though they have wings, they cannot fly. Instead, ostriches have
long, powerful legs that help them to run very fast when they feel threatened. Ostriches use their wings
to move themselves forward and to help them change direction.
Ostriches are native to Africa, where they still live in desert areas and dry, open grasslands called
savannahs. Ostriches can also be found in zoos all over the world. Humans have domesticated ostriches,
so now ostriches live on farms in over a dozen countries, including the United States, China, India, Japan,
Brazil and Costa Rica. They are raised for their meat, skin, and feathers.
Ostriches like to live in small groups called herds. The male ostrich is called a rooster; the female, a

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the following questions.
If you’re an Australian Facebook user who loves to share the news on your timeline, you may have
noticed something different recently: You can’t.
In the next few days, though, things should go back to normal. Less than a week after suddenly
banning news links for Australian users and shutting down Australian news pages to protest an upcoming
law, Facebook says it’s gotten reassurances from the Australian government that it won’t be forced to pay
publishers but will instead be given the chance to negotiate agreements with them — which it’s already
starting to do. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Facebook has agreed to pay the major
Australian media company Seven West Media for news content and is in negotiations with another called
Nine Entertainment.
Australia has now passed the News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code,
which could force Facebook and Google to pay publishers if they host their content. The law is a
response to years-long complaints from news outlets around the world about the role that Google and
Facebook — and their mammoth digital ad businesses — have played in the decline of journalism and the
decimation of its business model in the internet age. The two companies responded to the then-potential
law in very different ways: Google made deals with Australian news publishers; Facebook decided to cut
them off entirely.
After a few days of Australians seeing what Facebook was like without the news, a sizable amount
of worldwide backlash against the company, and talks with the Australian government that resulted in a
few last-minute changes to the law, Facebook decided that the new terms were good enough for its ban to
end. The law passed a few days later.
Previously, Facebook had banned all users from sharing links to Australian news sources,
Australian publications’ pages from hosting any of their own content, and Australian users from sharing
any news links, Australian or international.
Question 34: Which best serves as the title for the passage?
A. News Links for Australian Users
B. Australia and The News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code
C. A Sizable Amount of Worldwide Backlash Against A Company
D. Why Facebook Banned and Then Unbanned News in Australia
Question 35: The word “them” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. publishers B. reassurances C. Australian media D. negotiations
Question 36: In paragraph 2, Facebook suddenly banned news links for Australian users to ______.
A. protest an upcoming law
B. get reassurances from the Australian government
C. protect Australian news pages
D. negotiate agreements with publishers
Question 37: The word “major” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. public B. stupid C. main D. stylish
Question 38: The word “content” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. word B. article C. force D. name
Question 39: Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A. Facebook has agreed to pay Seven West Media for news content.
B. Google and Facebook responded to the law differently.
C. The laws issued by Australian government was changed at the last minute. Giaoandethitienganh.info sưu tầm
D. Facebook has never banned users from sharing links to Australian news sources.
Question 40: Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. Australians will never see the news on Facebook.
B. Facebook ended its ban thanks to acceptable teams, and things went back to normal.
C. There was a huge amount of worldwide protest against the Australian government.
D. Australian government’s law shouldn’t have been changed at the last minute.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
One to watch! Essay by Jessica Bourne, aged 14
I'm a big fan of films featuring the spy James Bond. I've got most of them on DVD. We've recently bought
Quantum of Solace, in which Daniel Craig plays the part of Bond. I don't know why the film's got that name - but it's a
great movie, anyway.
All the actors who've played James Bond have been great, but Daniel Craig, who's made lots of other films, plays
the part better than any of them. Even though he doesn't talk very much, I think he's the most perfect actor for the
role. He even does a few of the more dangerous things in the film himself, instead of getting someone else to do
them. I did wonder sometimes whether he'd be clever enough to defeat the bad people - but I'm not going to tell you
the ending! The actress who stars with Craig gives a fantastic performance too - I loved all the glamorous clothes she
wore!
The director probably had a hard job making this Bond film as full of action as earlier ones. But the excitement
starts right at the beginning here, with a car chase along a mountain road, and plenty of other thrilling scenes, too -
Bond leaping off tall buildings and so on. Unfortunately I found the story difficult to follow in places, and it also
seemed to be over very quickly - it lasted under two hours. I also felt there weren't as many jokes as in the old Bond
films. And where was all the ridiculous Bond equipment - the underwater car or exploding watch that everyone
laughed at? This is a more serious, darker Bond film, but I still really enjoyed it.

29. What is Jessica trying to do in her essay?


A. explain what first attracted her to Bond films
B. tell readers about the Bond DVDs she owns
C. give a balanced view of a Bond film she has seen

--- Page 3 of 5 ---


D. describe how Daniel Craig got the part of James Bond
30. What can a reader find out from Jessica's essay?
A. whether Quantum of Solace is her favourite Bond film
B. what other films Daniel Craig has made
C. which other actors have played James Bond
D. whether she thinks Daniel Craig is the best James Bond
31. What does Jessica tell us about Craig in the new Bond film?
A. He performs some of the action scenes.
B. He wears some stylish clothes.
C. He is given a lot of lines to say.
D. He looks strong and fit enough to fight the criminals.
32. What is one problem with the film, according to Jessica?
A. It seems a bit too long.
B. It's sometimes hard to understand what's happening.
C. It has too much silly technology in it.
D. It has jokes that aren't very funny.
33. Which of these might appear in a magazine review of the new Bond film?
A. It's full of excitement, with Bond jumping across rooftops, so don't be disappointed by the slow start.
B. The director wanted to move away from the last Bond film and include a bit less action.
C. I'm not sure the title tells you much...but be prepared to watch a rather different kind of Bond movie.
D. Daniel Craig performed well as James Bond, but the main female star was disappointing.

Virtually any night of the year, a person can look up at the sky and see the moon. The moon is Earth's only
natural satellite. It takes slightly more than twenty-seven days for it to orbit Earth. And it does so from a little more
than 380,000 kilometres away. Despite being Earth's closest celestial neighbour, there is much about the moon that
scientists do not know.
For instance, no one is exactly sure when the moon was formed. Earth is estimated to have been created
around 4.5 billion years ago. No later than 100,000 years after that, the moon was in orbit around Earth. Yet the
question remains: How did the moon form? There are several theories, but astronomers have thus far failed to prove
any of them correct.
The most widely accepted idea is the collision theory. It states that the moon formed when an object crashed
into Earth. According to this hypothesis, when Earth was first created, it had no satellite. But, at some point in time,
an object approximately the size of Mars collided with Earth. This caused part of the planet to break off. The largest
part eventually transformed into the moon.
Another theory is that Earth and the moon formed at the exact same time billions of years ago. However, many
astronomers discount this theory. They point out that Earth and the moon are comprised of different substances.
They claim that if the two bodies were formed at the same time, then they should be composed of the same
materials. Yet, as an example of their differences, the moon has much less iron than Earth does.
A third theory proposes that the moon formed somewhere else in the solar system. As it wandered past Earth,
it was captured by Earth's gravity and began to orbit the planet. A fourth theory declares that, when it first formed,
Earth spun much more rapidly than it does at the present time. Due to its swift rotation, part of the crust was
stripped away from the planet and cast into space. This material then formed the moon.
Each of the four theories has its supporters and detractors. Thus far, however, no astronomer has been able to
prove one theory while disproving all of the others.

34. Which of the following statements does paragraph 1 support?


A. The moon's distance from Earth changes at times.
B. There are many satellites that are orbiting Earth.
C. The moon is always visible in the night sky.

--- Page 4 of 5 ---


D. No natural objects are closer to Earth than the moon.
35. In line 10, the phrase “crashed into” is closest in meaning to ______.
A. hit B. passed C. interfered with D. affected
36. According to the text, what is true regarding the collision theory?
A. It points out that Earth's orbit changed a great deal.
B. It is believed by the greatest number of astronomers.
C. It states that Earth once had multiple satellites.
D. It declares that Mars collided with Earth at one point.
37. Why do many astronomers doubt that Earth and the moon formed at the same time?
A. The moon more likely came from elsewhere in the solar system.
B. Earth and the moon are formed of different materials.
C. There is not enough iron in the Earth's crust.
D. The chances of two objects forming close together are small.
38. In line 18, the word “it” refers to _______.
A. the solar system B. the planet's gravity C. a fourth theory D. Earth
39. The last theory suggests that the Moon was _______.
A. a result of a collision between Mars and the Earth
B. roughly the same size and mass of the Earth
C. made of the Earth’s peeled outer layer
D. formed somewhere in the solar system
40. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Moon: Everything You Need to Know about It
B. The Changing Phases of the Moon
C. Theories on the Creation of the Moon
D. How Long Ago Did the Moon Form?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
Many children have music classes when they attend school. And it is thought that music can
help them learn other subjects better. Research has shown that it can improve children’s
performances in certain subjects.
Some studies have shown that music training can help you understand your own language
better. It could also help you with learning a second one. Moreover, young people who have studied
music also seem to get higher scores in other subjects like maths. So it could be that these school
subjects are connected in some way.
Music also helps you think of new ideas, and believe more in yourself. If you are learning the
guitar, for example, it can be really exciting when you are able to start composing your own pieces
of music. One of the biggest benefits, of course, is that listening to music can reduce your stress.
And composing music can make you feel the same way. Maybe your musical knowledge will even
open up a great career path for you in the future.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
A survey into the media habits of teenagers in the USA reveals some surprising statistics. The
average teenager spends an incredible eleven hours each day on their mobile phones, computers,
games consoles or TVs. That's more hours than they are awake outside school time! How are they
able to do this? The answer, of course, is multitasking.
The results of the survey came as no surprise to fifteen-year-old participant Jake Kendall. He
told researchers that he multitasked every second that he was online. He said that he was
completing their survey at the same time as watching a TV show, chatting to friends online and
reading reviews of the latest film releases. For sixteen-year-old Marisa Sanchez, the survey simply
confirmed the facts. She said that she had watched two hours of TV in the three hours since the end
4
of school, and also researched her homework about volcanoes, played an online game for two
hours, and arranged her weekend plans by texting friends.
Some experts are worried about the survey results. Sylvia de Lupis of the Family Action
Institute told our reporter that teenagers would have difficulties because of their multitasking habits.
She added that, as adults, they would struggle to focus their attention. However, Dr. Michael Rich
from the Center on Media and Child Health said that worries about multitasking had become
pointless a long time ago, and that high levels of media use were now a part of young people's
environment, 'like the air that they breathe, the water that they drink and the food that they eat'.

Question 34: Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Teens: More Media Use Than Hours in The Day
B. The Art of Multitasking: A to Z for Teens
C. Teens: Learning through Media
D. Multitasking - Part of Teens' Everyday Life
Question 35: According to paragraph 1, which device may not be used daily by teens?
A. game consoles B. televisions C. e-book readers D. phones
Question 36: The word "reviews" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. comments B. plots C. discussions D. complaints
Question 37: The word “they” in paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A. habits B. adults C. difficulties D. teenagers
Question 38: The word "pointless" in paragraph 3 is opposite in meaning to ________.
A. useful B. invaluable C. worthless D. ineffective
Question 39: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. An average teen in America spends nearly half a day using media.
B. Marisa Sanchez could complete her school assignment and relax at a time.
C. Dr. Michael Rich expected teenagers to get distracted due to multitasking
D. Frequent media use is possibly a matter of course to young people.
Question 40: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Family Action Institute must work to stop multitasking.
B. Young people should concentrate on only one medium at a time.
C. Jake Kendall and Marisa Sanchez got good academic results.
D. Youngsters' multitasking habits in media use meet with mixed reactions from the public.
