Questions 23-30: Read the text about volunteering in Britain and answer the questions that follow.

NH ƠN

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 volunteering. In a recent British survey, 20% of 18-24 year-olds and 8% of over-65s said their love lives had improved since they began volunteering. The same poll found that nearly half of volunteers enjoyed improved health and fitness, a quarter lost weight - especially those working with children or doing conservation projects - and two-thirds felt less stressed. So, it seems volunteering may improve your life, and you may even find the person of your dreams.

Questions 23 – 30: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.

Pancake Day or Shrove Tuesday is a special day celebrated in many countries around the world. It is celebrated in English-speaking countries like the UK, Ireland, Australia and Canada. In some countries, like France and the USA, it is called “Mardi Gras” or “Fat Tuesday”. In other countries, like Spain, Italy or Brazil, Shrove Tuesday is at the end of Carnival. On this day many people eat pancakes, a thin, flat cake made in a pan.

DẠ

Pancake Day is always on a Tuesday in February or March. It is the day before Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent. Lent is a period of 40 days before Easter when people often give up or stop eating things that are bad for them like chocolate or fast food. At the end of Lent is Easter, which takes place on a different date each year because it depends on the moon. Traditionally, during Lent, people didn’t eat rich foods like butter and eggs, so they made pancakes from these ingredients on Shrove Tuesday.

IA L

Another tradition on Pancake Day in the UK is pancake racing. People run in a race with a pancake in a pan. As they run, they have to toss the pancake (throw the pancake in the air and catch it in the pan) several times. In some pancake races people dress up in fancy dress costumes. The most famous pancake race takes place in a town called Olney, in the middle of England. People say that Olney has been celebrating pancake races since 1445!

In India, traditionally the bride wears a sari which is highly ornate with gold and silver embroidery. The colour of the sari is of great significance, and is different for different communities. The colours generally considered lucky for the occasion are red, yellow, green, or white. Red is the most common and it symbolises prosperity, and fertility. The bride also puts on elaborate and beautiful ornaments primarily made of gold and precious stones. Her hair is plaited and decorated with flowers and jewellery. The groom wears a dhoti which also has a lot of subtle but intricate embroidery. The colour of dhoti is usually white, or beige. In North-India, the groom also wears a turban with white flowers tied in suspended strings called the Sehra. In some traditions, he may also sport a sword as part of his wedding outfit.

Many people worry about the effects of television on family life in the United States. In the average home, the TV is on more than six hours a day. But do people always keep their mind on the programs? And do people who watch TV really spend less time on other freetime activities?

QU Y

A study by some New York researchers found out that watching TV is the most popular free-time activity in the United States. More than 70% of Americans say that they watch TV every day, or almost every day. The second most popular activity is reading the newspaper. Listening to music at home is third. Talking on the phone to friends and relatives is fourth. Exercising or jogging is fifth.

Surprisingly, television does not seem to take time away from free-time activities at home. Six out of ten people said that when the TV is on, they seldom pay attention to it. During a typical television program, people may eat dinner, do housework, read a newspaper or magazine, or talk or read to their children. The TV becomes 'background music'.

KÈ

The researchers learned that in some ways Americans are very traditional. Teenagers and single people may be interested in activities and excitement outside the home. However, eight out of ten Americans like to spend their free time at home with family member and friends. (Adapted from "Reading Explorations")

Choose the best answer A, B, C, or D for each of the following questions.

Let’s start with toothpaste. So you think, hmmm, toothpaste – when was that invented? A hundred years ago? Maybe two hundred? But we find that actually, toothpaste has been around for sixteen hundred years. People from Egypt used it, and then the Ancient Greeks and Romans used it. Was it the same as modern toothpaste? Definitely not. Ancient Greek toothpaste used ingredients like crushed bones and oyster shells.

OK, another invention for you: the good old umbrella. If we look at a number of ancient sculptures from Egypt and Persia, which is now called Iran, it’s clear that the umbrella has been around for a long, long time, certainly more than two thousand years, Interestingly, it seems that only kings or very important people had umbrellas in these sculptures. So they were a symbol of high social class. But what were they for? In Europe we tend to think of umbrellas as things to protect us from the rain.

John: Good morning, Steve. My name is John, and I am the new person in the Finance Department. Steve: Good morning, John. What can I do for you? John: As a new person, I need to understand the operation at Lintel. So, I wonder whether I can ask you some questions about the manufacturing process in your department now. Steve: Hold on a second, John. Let me post this production schedule before we sit down and talk. (nghỉ 3 giây) Steve: OK, where do you want to start? John: Well, you can describe the production flow in your department. Steve: The production process is based on the customer-order information that I receive from the Sales department. First, we order raw materials from our suppliers. Once the materials arrive at our plant, they are transferred to the production floor where they will go through five different processes before they become finished goods. John: How many suppliers do we deal with? Are they all local suppliers? Do any materials come from overseas? Steve: We have a very limited number of suppliers. We deal with approximately ten main suppliers in the US, and we only have a handful of suppliers overseas. John: How do you control the quality of the purchased materials? Steve: One of the reasons for having a limited number of suppliers is to ensure the quality of raw materials. My Quality Control group works very closely with our suppliers to make sure that they meet our quality requirements. John: Do you maintain a high level of inventory? Steve: No, we keep a very low level of inventory. John: How do you move materials from one department to the next? Steve: Very easily through the Material Request form. If department B needs materials from department A, it will fill out a Material Request form and give it to department A. John: A very simple process. How about labor? How do you calculate the labor cost?... (giọng nói nhỏ dần)

Questions 31– 36: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow. International Women’s Day takes place every year on 8 March to celebrate the achievements of women worldwide. It started with a protest that took place in New York City in 1908 where women went out onto the streets to demand the right to vote, shorter working hours and better pay. Nowadays, it is a global event that is supported by many charities, NGOs, governments and academic institutions.

KÈ

In today’s world, it may appear that women have all the same opportunities as men. If you watch the news, you will see women astronauts, women prime ministers and women leaders in business. However, if you look at the statistics you will realise that there’s still a long way to go. A report by BBC a few years ago showed that in the UK, women occupied only 30.9% of the most senior positions in areas like politics and business. What is more, latest figures suggest that British women still earn on average 20% less than men. So, although progress has been made since 1908, there is still a lot to do before we see an equal number of men and women in the top jobs and receiving equal pay.

DẠ

To celebrate International Women’s Day, a lot of special events take place in towns and cities all over the UK. There are exhibitions, theatre shows, talks, walking tours, films, workshops and so much more. All the events are designed not only to celebrate the role of women in society but also to encourage efforts to achieve gender equality. British Council)

I’ve learned several foreign languages as an adult. I was able to learn French to make conversations fluently in 17 days using the following techniques. I set up a routine where I did the same things every day. In the morning, I woke up and wrote out the regular and irregular verb tables for 1.5-2 hours. I managed to get through an entire pad of paper in two weeks. I still believe that writing things out by hand is the best way to memorise things.

IA L

I would run for 45 to 60 minutes in the early afternoon in the French countryside listening to catchy French music. Music is a great way to learn the intonation of a language and train your facial muscles as you sing along. In the afternoon, I read “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” in French. Reading children’s books is a great way to learn new languages. I spent at least an hour a day writing basic essays about myself which I had my French friend check for errors. Another good tip is to learn the filler words. These are the words and phrases people say all the time between sentences but have no real meanings like alors, en fait, etc. These allow you to buy time in a conversation and increase your confidence. After 17 days I left the small town and went to Paris. I met a girl in a coffee shop and we started talking. After a few minutes, she asked how long I had lived in France. When I told her I had been learning French for 17 days, she swore that I had lived in France for at least a year. Hopefully there are some useful tips you can use in your learning. Let me know and bonne chance!
