PART 2. Read the following text and write your answers in complete
sentences to questions. (20 points)
After surgery patients will be moved to the recovery room where they will be told
how the operation went. They may feel disoriented as they recover from the
anaesthetic. A nurse will give them oxygen through tubes or a mask to help them
feel better. It's common for them to feel sick or vomit after they have been given
anaesthesia. The nurse may offer them medicine to help relieve this discomfort.
They may also have a sore throat and dry mouth. Their blood pressure will be
taken via an automatic cuff that squeezes tightly at regular times. Their
temperature will also be taken. The patients should tell their nurse as soon as they
start to feel any pain so they can given painkilling medication as soon as possible
to stop it getting worse (the medication can take 20 minutes to start working). The
sooner they start to move around, the better. Lying in bed for too long can cause
some of their blood to pool in their legs. This puts them at risk of a blood clot. If
possible, doing some leg exercises can help them prevent a blood clot. These may
be as simple as flexing their knee or ankle and rotating their foot.

SECTION D. TRANSLATION (15 points)
Translate the whole following passage into Vietnamese.
Most midwives care for women from when they first discover they are pregnant to
when their babies are at least four weeks old. They carry out clinical examinations,
providing guidance, information and support, as well as "catch" babies. They also
have to keep constant records of the mother and baby's progress and work in
artnership with any other health or social services they may need. Lots of
midwives work part-time and most work a combination of day and night shifts,
because even if a baby is expected it's tricky to predict when it will actually arrive!
>>Hầu hết các nữ hộ sinh chăm sóc phụ nữ từ khi họ phát hiện ra mình mang thai
lần đầu tiên đến khi thai nhi được ít nhất bốn tuần tuổi. Họ thực hiện khám lâm
sàng, cung cấp hướng dẫn, thông tin và hỗ trợ, cũng như "bắt" trẻ sơ sinh. Họ cũng
phải lưu giữ hồ sơ liên tục về sự tiến bộ của bà mẹ và em bé và hợp tác với bất kỳ
dịch vụ y tế hoặc xã hội nào khác mà họ có thể cần. Rất nhiều nữ hộ sinh làm việc
bán thời gian và hầu hết làm việc kết hợp cả ca ngày và ca đêm, bởi vì ngay cả khi
em bé được mong đợi, thì cũng khó dự đoán khi nào nó thực sự đến!
