GIỎI NHƯ NGƯỜI BẢN NGỮ

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 from 9 to 15.
Scientsist have experimented with a new produre for alleviating the damage caused by strokes.
Strokes are frequently caused by a blood clot lodging in the tree of arteries in the head, choking the
flow of blood. Some brain cells die as a direct result of the stroke, but others also die over several
hours because the proteins spilling out of the first cells that die trigger a chemical chain reaction
that kills the neighboring cells.
The current method of reducing the amount of damage is to give a clot dissolver, known as TPA,
as soon as possible. But generally TPA is not given to the patient until he or she reaches the
hospital, and it still does not immediately stop the damage.

The new technology, still in the research stage, involves chilling the area or the entire patient. It is
already known that when an organ is cooled, damage is slowed. This is why sometimes a person
who has fallen into an icy pond is not significantly harmed after being warmed up again. The
biggest issue is the method of cooling. It is not feasible to chill the head alone. Doctors have
chilled the entire body by wrapping the patient in cold materials, but extreme shivering was a
problem.
The new idea is to cool the patient from the inside out. Several companies are studying the use of
cold-tipped catheters, inserted into the artery in the groin and threaded up to the inferior vena cava,
which is a large vein that supplies blood to the abdomen. The catheter is expected to cool the blood
that flows over it. Thus allowing cooler blood to reach the area of the stroke damage.
It is not expected that the cooling will be substantial, but even a slight decrease in temperature is
thought to be helpful. In effect, the patient is given a kind of forced hypothermia. And doctors
believe it is important to keep the patient awake so that they can converse with the patient in order
to ascertain mental condidtion.
Studies continue to determine the most effective and least damaging means of cooling the patient
in order to reduce this damage.

D. Drugs are not helpful in stopping the chain reaction
Question 11. According to the passage, what cause a stroke?

C. Hot blood

B. A blood clot sticking in an area of the brain
D. A patient choking on food

A. Some cells die immerdiately when a person has a stroke, and others die later
B. The protein from dead cells kills other cells
C. Cells die only as a direct result of the stroke

Hobbit-like Species of Humans
On the tiny island of Flores, east of Bali and midway between Asia and Australia, scientists have
discovered the remains of a small, hobbit-like species of humans. These people grew no larger
than the modern three-year-old child. They lived about 18,000 years ago and are a completely
different species of human
4


GIỎI NHƯ NGƯỜI BẢN NGỮ

This discovery has taught scientists a lot about human species. This remarkable discovery shows
that the human species is more varied and flexible in its ability to adapt than previously thought.
These hobbit-like people join a short list of other types of humans that lived with modern humans.
The researchers believe that these hobbits evolved from a normal-sized, human population that

reached Flores around 840,000 years ago. One likely explanation is that, over thousands of years,
the species became smaller because environmental conditions favored a smaller body size. The
dwarfing of mammals on islands occurs frequently. Islands limit food supply and predators, and
species compete for the same environmental space. Survival would depend on minimizing energy
requirements.

B. This shows that small islands are good places for smaller species
C. It shows that humans do not need a lot of different foods
D. It shows that humans can change a great deal according to the demands of the environment

A. Pictures
B. desendants
C. fossils
D. records
Question 43. Which of the following best favors a small body size?
A. A mainland where there is little competition for survival
B. A small, isolated area where there is a limited food supply
C. An island that has a large and varied food supply

humans except _____
A. Little food
C. a deeply forested area with little sunshine
B. Few predators

D. limited land

A. On every continent C. only on the island discussed in the passage
B. On their islands as well D. none of the above
Question 47. According to the passage, why does a smaller size helps species to survive under
certain conditions?
A. It makes them more difficult for predators to see
B. It allows them to move more quickly
C. It allows them to consume less food
D. All of the above
