correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35.
Genetic modification of foods is not a new practice. It has been practiced for thousands of years under
the name of "selective breeding". Animals and plants were chosen because they had traits that humans
found useful. Some animals were larger and stronger than others, or they yielded more food, or they had
some other trait that humans valued. Therefore, they were bred because of those traits. Individuals with
those traits were brought together and allowed to breed in the hope that their offspring would have the
same traits in greater measure.
Much the same thing was done with plants. To produce bigger or sweeter fruit, or grow more grain per
unit of land, strains of plants were combined and recombined to produce hybrids, or crossbreeds that had
the desired traits in the right combinations. All the while, however, biologists wondered: is there a more
direct and versatile way to change the traits of plants and animals? Could we rewrite, so to speak, the
heredity of organisms to make them serve our needs better?
In the 20th century, genetic modification made such changes possible at last. Now, it was possible to
alter the genetic code without using the slow and uncertain process of selective breeding. It even became
possible to blend plants and animals genetically: to insert animal genes into plants, for example, in order

to give the plants a certain trait they ordinarily would lack, such as resistance to freezing. The result was a
tremendous potential to change the very nature of biology.
Câu 31: What is the passage mainly about?
A. The arguments against genetic modification
B. The benefits brought about by genetic modification
C. The reasons behind selective breeding of plants
D. The development of genetic modification
Câu 32: The word "them" in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. organisms
B. traits
C. animals
Câu 33: The word "blend" in paragraph 3 mostly means ______.
A. combine
B. collect
C. gather
Câu 34: According to the passage, selective breeding ______.
A. is slower and uncertain than genetic modification
B. works much better on plants than on animals
C. helps change the traits of plants rather than animals
D. has a huge potential to change the nature of biology

D. plants
D. carry


Câu 35: Which of the following IS NOT achieved by genetic modification?
A. Giving plants necessary traits taken from animals’ genes
B. Producing hybrids or crossbreeds from many animals and plants
C. Encouraging people to give up selective breeding completely
D. Making big changes to the very nature of biology

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 from 36 to 43.
The need for a surgical operation, especially an emergency operation, almost always comes as a
severe shock to the patient and his family. Despite modern advances, most people still have an
irrational fear of hospitals, and anaesthetics. Patients do not often believe they really need surgery cutting into a part of the body as opposed to treatment with drugs.
In the early years of the 20th century there was little specialization in surgery. A good surgeon was
capable of performing almost every operation that had been advised up to that time. Today the
situation is different. Operations are now being carried out that were not even dreamed of fifty years
ago. The heart can be safely opened and its valves repaired. Clogged blood vessels can be cleaned
out, and broken ones mended or replaced. A lung, the whole stomach, or even part of the brain can
be removed and still permit the patient to live comfortable and satisfactory life. However, not every
surgeon wants to, or is qualified to carry out every type of modern operation.
The scope of surgery has increased remarkably in the past decades. Its safety has increased too.
Deaths from most operations are about 20% of what they were in 1910 and surgery has been extended
in many directions, for example to certain types of birth defects in new born babies, and, at the other
end of the scale, to life saving operations for the octogenarian. The hospital stay after surgery has
been shortened to as little as a week for most major operations. Most patients are out of bed on the
day after an operation and may be back at work in two or three weeks.
Many developments in modern surgery are almost incredible. They include replacement of damaged
blood vessels with simulated ones made of plastic: the replacement of heart valves with plastic
substitutes; the transplanting of tissues such as lens of the eye; the invention of the artificial kidney to
clean the blood of poisons at regular intervals and the development of heart and lung machines to keep
patients alive during very long operations. All these things open a hopeful vista for the future of
surgery.
One of the most revolutionary areas of modem surgery is that of organ transplants. Until a few
decades ago, no person, except an identical twin, was able to accept into his body the tissues of
another person without reacting against them and eventually killing them. Recently, however, it has
been discovered that with the use of X-rays and special drugs, it is possible to graft tissues from one
person to another which will survive for periods of a year or more. Kidneys have been successfully
transplanted between non-identical twins. Heart and lung transplants have also been reasonably successful.

"Spare parts" surgery, the simple routine replacement of all worn-out organs by new ones, is
still a dream of the future but surgery is ready for such miracles. In the meantime, you can be happy if
your doctors say to you, "Yes, I think it is possible to operate on you for this condition."
Câu 36: Most people are afraid of being operated on __________.
A. in spite of improvements in modem surgery
B. because they think modem drugs are dangerous
C. because they do not believe they need anaesthetics
D. unless it is an emergency operation
Câu 37: Surgeons in the early 20th century, compared with modem ones _______.
A. had less to learn about surgery
B. needed more knowledge
C. could perform every operation known today D. were more trusted by their patients
Câu 38: A patient can still live a comfortable life even after the removal of _________.


A. his brain
B. his lungs
C. a major organ such as the stomach or one lung
D. part of the stomach or the whole liver
Câu 39: The word "clogged" in the second paragraph is most likely to correspond to
__________.
A. clean
B. blocked
C. covered
D. unwashed
Câu 40: Today, compared with 1910 ________.
A. 20% fewer of all operation patients die
B. 20% of all operation patients recover
C. operation deaths have increased by 20%
D. five times fewer patients die after being operated on
