<b>READING </b>


<b>•</b> <b>Read the passage below and choose the best answer from the four options marked A, B, C or</b>
<b>D:</b>


As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and Zuni Indians of North
America were building with adobe-sun-baked brick plastered with mud. Their homes looked remarkably
like modern apartment houses. Some were four stories high and contained quarters for perhaps a thousand
people, along with storerooms for grain and other goods. These buildings were usually put up against
cliffs, both to make construction easier and for defense against enemies. They were really villages in
themselves, as later Spanish explorers must have realized since they called them “pueblos”, which is
Spanish for towns. The people of the pueblos raised what are called “the three sisters”- corn, beans, and
squash. They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous baskets, some so fine that they could hold


water. The Southwest has always been a dry country, where water is scarce. The Hopi and Zuni brought
water from streams to their fields and gardens through irrigation ditches. Water was so important that it
played a major role in their religion. They developed elaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring
rain. The way of life of less – settled groups was simpler and more strongly influenced by nature. Small
tribes such as the Shoshone and Ute wandered the dry and mountainous lands between the Rocky
Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. They gathered seeds and hunted small animals such as rabbits and
snakes. In the Far North the ancestors of today’s Inuit hunted seals, walruses, and the great whales. They
lived right on the frozen seas in shelters called igloos built of blocks of packed snow. When summer
came, they fished for salmon and hunted the lordly caribou. The Cheyenne, Pawnee and Sioux tribes,
known as the Plains Indians, lived on the grasslands between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi
River. They hunted bison, commonly called the buffalo. Its meat was the chief food of these tribes, and
its hide was used to make their clothing and the covering of their tents and tips.


1. What does the passage mainly discuss?


A. The architecture of early America Indian buildings
B. The movement of American Indians across North America
C. Ceremonies and rituals of American Indians


D. The way of life of American Indian tribes in early North America


2. According to the passage, the Hopi and Zuni typically built their homes ________.
A. in valleys B. next to streams C. on open plains D. against cliffs
3. The word “They” refers to ____________.


A. goods B. buildings C. cliffs D. enemies


4. It can be inferred from the passage that the dwellings of the Hopi and Zuni were _______.
A. very small B. highly advanced



C. difficult to defend D. quickly constructed
D. They did not have many religious ceremonies.


5. According to the passage, which of the following tribes lived in the grasslands?
A. The Shoshone and Ute B. The Cheyenne


C. The Hopi and Zuni D. The Pawnee and Inuit

<b>Reading the following passage then answering the questions by circling the letters A, B, C or D.</b>
John Fisher, a builder, and his wife Elizabeth wanted more living space, so they left their
small flat for an old 40-metre-high castle tower. They have spent five years turning it into a
beautiful home with six floors, winning three architectural prizes.


‘I love the space, and being private,' Elizabeth says. 'You feel separated from the world. If
I'm in the kitchen, which is 25 metres above the ground floor, and the doorbell rings, I don't
have to answer it because visitors can't see I'm in!'


'There are 142 steps to the top, so I go up and down five or six times a day, it's very good
exercise! But having to carry heavy things to the top is terrible, so I never buy two bags of
shopping from the supermarket at a time. Apart from that, it's a brilliant place to live.'


'When we first saw the place, I asked my father's advice about buying it, because we
couldn't decide. After paying for it, we were a bit worried because it looked awful. But we
really loved it, and knew how we wanted it to look.'


'Living here can be difficult - yesterday I climbed a four-metre ladder to clean the
windows. But when you stand on the roof you can see all the way out to sea on a clear day, and
that's a wonderful experience. I'm really glad we moved.'

<b>FOOD AROUND THE WORLD</b>


It isn't amazing how much time we spend talking about food? "Have you ever eaten ...?", "What do you
have for lunch?" and so on. And yet, when you travel from one county to another, you find that people
have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal, and what other
people eat is strange and silly. In most parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In
England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating
becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The
English drink tea four or five times a day. Australians drink large amounts of beer and the French drink
wine every day.


The sorts of meat people like to eat also differ from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be
delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but
never eat goat meat. The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating
raw fish. So it seems that although eating is a topic that we can talk about for hours, there is a little
common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy what they have always eaten, and there
is very little we can do to change our eating habit.


1. What is the main idea of the text?


A. People have the same feelings about food.
B. People think about food differently.



C. People think that no meal is perfect without rice.
2. According to the writer, where is bread the main food?
A. In Asia B. In Japan C. In Middle East
3. Which of these people drink wine every day?
A. Americans B. Australians C. The French
4. Why are the Japanese not interested in sheep meat?
A. They don't like its smell.


B. It tastes bad.


C. Horse meat and goat meat are popular.
5. In which country do people often drink beer?
A. France B. Australia C. England
6. Which is popular food in Japan?


A. Fish B. Horse meat C. Goat meat


7. How does the writer conclude about our eating habit?
A. Our eating habit is difficult to change.

C. We can change our eating habit easily.


<b>Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D (1 point)</b>


Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO) is a registered charity dedicated to assisting in developing
countries. More specifically, it is a recruitment agency which finds, selects, and laces volunteers in
response to overseas requests. This work makes it distinctive among other charities and organizations in
the U.K. It sends people, not money abroad.



VSO tries to respond to requests from overseas which ask for volunteers. Its bias is firmly towards the
poorest members of the community and it takes great care to avoid undermining job opportunities for
local people.


Both staff and volunteers also pay special attention to women’s roles in developments projects. This is
because women’s roles in child rearing, in education and community cohesion are essential in any healthy
process of change.


Over the past 38 years, more than 21,000 volunteers have worked abroad with VSO. There are now
over 1,900 volunteers working in 59 of the less developed countries in Africa, Asia, the Pacific and the
Caribbean.


The application of each volunteer is carefully considered in order to select and interview candidates
against each job request from the field, to seek the person with the right blend of skills and personality.
Chosen volunteers will have the opportunities to acquire better understanding about life and people
everywhere.


<b>1: Which group of countries is the VSO aimed at assisting?</b>


<b>A. developed countries</b> <b>B. underdeveloped countries</b>


<b>C. rich countries</b> <b>D. developing countries</b>


<b>2: Which of the following words is similar in meaning to “distinctive” in paragraph 1?</b>


<b>A. the same</b> <b>B. similar</b> <b>C. common</b> <b>D. different</b>


<b>3: According to those who work for VSO, who play the most important part in bringing about changes?</b>
<b>A. Women in local communities</b> <b>B. Charitable organizations</b>



<b>C. Staff who recruits volunteers</b> <b>D. Volunteers from abroad</b>
<b>4: Which the following is TRUE about VSO?</b>


<b>A. It recruits volunteers to work in the U.K.</b>
<b>B. It sends financial aids to developing countries.</b>
<b>C. It gives preference to applicants living abroad. </b>
<b>D. It sends volunteers to help abroad.</b>


Doing some forms of voluntary work has never been more popular with British people. Over 20 million
people were engaged in voluntary activities in 2013. Volunteering means giving up time to do work of
benefit to the community. It can take many forms, from working with children with learning difficulties,
or in an animal hospital, or planting trees. When London won its bid to host the 2012 Olympics, up to
70,000 volunteers were needed to help ensure that the games were a success.


Volunteers can be anyone of any age. Students and full-time workers often manage to involve in some
voluntary work. But what motivates volunteers? Some do it for a sense of selflessness while others find
they have free time available. Many mention the opportunity to get to know people they would not
normally meet.


A relatively new phenomenon is the hope of meeting new friends or even a life partner through

<b>Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to </b>
<b>each of the questions. </b>


Volunteering gives you an opportunity to change people's lives, including your own. It gives you the
satisfaction of playing a role in someone else's life, helping people who may not be able to help


themselves. Volunteering is a way of giving back to your community while developing important social
skills, and gaining valuable work experience all at the same time.



But how can I get a job if all they want is experience, you ask? That's where volunteering comes
in. If you're looking for work, volunteering is a good way to gain experience and references for your
course of life. Many people work unpaid in order to gain experience in very competitive fields such as
television, but some people may not describe them as volunteers. Well then, what exactly is


"volunteering"? Many would describe it as any unpaid job, which involves spending time doing


something that aims to benefit others. In that case, volunteering at an animal hospital, for instance, would
be a great opportunity. We've all seen the stories on TV about animals in need. This is where you take
charge of your life and contribute a little of your time and energy into helping others. You're bound to get
more out of it than you put in.

of your day to clean up the local community park, you may bring a lifetime of happiness in some child's
life. Or provide shelter and warmth to a family who lives on the streets by volunteering to help in building
them a home. Why not spend a little time helping others, because in the end, what goes around comes
around.


Volunteering is not only effective, but it's a good way to meet people, learn, and develop social skills.

Many organizations are trying to find a solution to the problem of world hunger. Two of them are CARE
and OXFARM. They both provide food to hungry people. However, they both believe that it is more
important to help people produce their own food. Because of this belief, both organizations have
programmes to help people improve their lives.


CARE: It was organized in 1945. Today it has development programs in 37 countries. CARE gives
equipment and teaches people how to build water systems, roads, schools, houses and health centers. It
also teaches people how to increase productivity on their farms, and how to start small village industries.
Besides, it provides health care for the people. It teaches people how to improve their health. It trains
people and provides simple medical care.


CARE also provides food for about 30 million people each year, most of them are children. It gives
special help when there is a flood, an earthquake, a drought or a war.



OXFARM: In the 1960s, it started working on long-term development in many countries. It wanted to
attack the causes of hunger, poverty and diseases. It wanted to prevent the problems instead of trying to
solve them. However, it continues to provide food to the hungry, the sick and the homeless.

<i>THE BEATLES</i>


In the 1960s, The Beatles were probably the most famous pop group in the whole world. Since
then, there have been a great many groups that have achieved enormous fame, so it is perhaps difficult
now to imagine how sensational The Beatles were at that time. They were four boys from the north of
England and none of them had any training in music. They started by performing and recording songs by
black Americans and they had some success with these songs. Then they started writing their own songs
and that was when they became really popular. The Beatles changed pop music. They were the first pop
group to achieve great success from songs they had written themselves. After that it became common for
groups and singers to write their own songs. The Beatles did not have a long career. Their first hit record
was in 1963 and they split up in 1970. They stopped doing live performances in 1966 because it had
become too dangerous for them – their fans were so excited that they surrounded them and tried to take
their clothes as souvenirs! However, today some of their songs remain as famous as they were when they
first came out. Throughout the world many people can sing part of a Beatles song if you ask them.

A. How the Beatles became more successful than other
groups

song

‘The best age to start learning the violin is between three and six,' says Margaret Porter, a
violinist and music teacher. 'It's the time when you are learning about the world.' Margaret, who lives in
London, prefers to take pupils at three and four, although she has made lots of exceptions for keen
year olds. When she started teaching the violin in 1972, her first class consisted of her children's
five-year-old school friends.


Magaret's pupils have group lessons. Each group has about a dozen pupils and each lesson lasts an
hour, once a fornight. In addition, each pupil has one individual lesson a week with her. Parents also have
to attend the classes. It is important that the parents take an active interest in the lessons.


From the earliest lessons pupils learn to play by ear. They do not even try to read music until they
have been playing for several years, and for a long time there is a big difference between their playing
and reading of music. Margaret says that her method is not supposed to produce great violinists, and
always suggests that pupils who perform particularly well should leave and study the violin using more
traditional methods.
