Câu 10: 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.
In the United States, air-conditioning has influenced the movement of population from the cooler northern states to the
southern ones. Since air-conditioning made life more pleasant in the summer months, states like Florida and Arizona began to
draw people from the north. This population shift has affected regional economies between northern and southern states.
The effects of air-conditioning on society are hardly limited to the United States. Singapore's Senior Minister, Lee Kuan Yew,
claims that air-conditioning is one reason for Singapore's rise as an Asian power. In his view, societies in the past progressed
most rapidly in countries with cooler climates, but now that countries in tropical zones are using air-conditioning, they can
also expand and grow. The use of air-conditioning is seen in some Asian countries as a way to show status. In Hong Kong, for
example, office managers tend to keep temperatures extremely cold, sometimes at only 60°F (16°C), 10 to 14°F (6 to 7°C)
below the recommended settings. The main reason is simply to show that the company can afford it.
Although air-conditioning has led to economic improvement and has increased daily comfort for people everywhere, its
impact on the environment has not been so positive. First, air conditioning units release polluting chemicals into the air, which
contribute to global warming. Furthermore, running air-conditioning on a large scale requires enormous amounts of energy.
The burning of coal and oil to produce this energy also contributes to air pollution and thus, to global warming.
In some countries, governments and industry are beginning to search for ways to reduce the harm caused by air-conditioning.
In Japan, summer temperatures have been raised in office buildings to conserve energy. In the United States, government,
industry, and private groups are searching for ways to reduce the amount of dangerous chemicals released by air
conditioners. Staying cool is important, and many cannot imagine life without air-conditioning. However, new technologies
are to be found to make sure that air-conditioning does not create more problems than it solves.
(Adapted from Advanced Reading Power by B.S. Mikulecky and L. Jefferies)

Câu 12: 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 .
The Sahara Desert is the world's largest hot desert. The Sahara is in North Africa and is as large as the United States. Many
people think that an area like this has no animals or plant life, but they are incorrect. In fact, the Sahara Desert has many
different 'ecoregions’. Each ecoregion has different plants and animals living there. The biggest ecoregion is called the 'Sahara
Desert ecoregion.' In this area, the climate is extremely dry and extremely hot. The landscape is sandy and dusty with many
high dunes. Because the Sahara Desert ecoregion is so hot and dry, there are very few plants and animals. Scientists estimate
that there are only 500 species of plants. This is not very much when thinking of how enormous the region is. These plants
include acacia trees, palms, spiny shrubs, and grasses. The Sahara is also home to 70 species of mammals. Twenty of these
are large mammals. There are about 90 species of birds and around 100 reptiles.
The biggest threat to plants and animals in this environment is drying up. Because of this, plants have the ability to recover
their health after their leaves have dried out completely. Animals can lose 30-60% of their body mass and still survive. Most
animals do not get their water from drinking like other ecosystems. Instead, they have adapted to get their water through
metabolic processes. This is why they can survive in a place like the Sahara Desert ecosystem.
