For many people the language of the Internet is English . “ World , Wide ,
Web : Three English Words ” was the name of an article by Michael Specter in the
New York Times a few years ago . The article went on to say : “ If you want to take
full advantage of the Internet , there is only one real way to do it : learn English ” .
In general , it is not difficult to learn to use Internet services . But although
Internet services are rather easy to use , you will have considerable difficulties if you
are not familiar with English . In fact , a good knowledge of English is one of the most
important aspects that help you use the Internet .
Learning to use a new Internet service may take a few hours , a few days or
some weeks , but it takes years to learn a language so that you can use it fluently and
confidently . Of course , when you know some English , you can learn more just by
using it on the Internet . But at least your English should be good enough to
understand commonly used words and to know what to do on the Internet .
*** Answer the questions : ( Trả lời các câu hỏi )
25./ Is it difficult to learn to use Internet services in general ?
……………………………………………………………………………………….
26./ Should we learn English to take full advantage of the Internet ?
………………………………………………………………………………………
27./ How long will it take to learn to use a new Internet service ?
…………………………………………………………………………………………
28./ What will happen if we are not familiar with English when using the Internet ?

Câu 29 – 32 : Rewrite the sentences in such a way that they mean almost the same

traditional Chinese costume, creating the primitive forms of the present ao dai. This
creativity showed Vietnam’s strong sense of independence. The ao dai, with different
designs and materials, was traditionally worn by both men and women. Over the years,
despite the coming of western clothing for more convenience in daily activities of
modern life, the ao dai has been there to stay. Therefore, Vietnamese women go on

Smoking causes lung cancer, which is the number one cancer among men.
Ninety percent of the people who get lung cancer die. Smoking is also the leading
cause of mouth cancer, tongue cancer, and throat cancer. Many smokers have
heart disease and pneumonia. Smoking causes one million early deaths in the
world every year.
Smokers not only harm themselves but also harm others. Smokers breathe
smoke out into the air. They breathe "it" out on their children and their wives or
husbands. Children whose parents smoke have more breathing and lung problems
than other children. Women who are married to smokers are more likely to have
lung cancer than those married to non-smokers.
We are all aware that smoking is bad. So why do people smoke?
