The document discusses the effects of global warming on plants and animals. It states that scientists have observed shifts in lifecycles, such as flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in spring. As temperatures continue to increase, animals will tend to migrate toward higher elevations and poles, while plants will also shift ranges. However, human development may prevent these shifts for some species. The passage also discusses how warming oceans can bleach coral and increase acidification, further stressing ocean ecosystems.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer
shect to indicate the correct answer to each of the Questions from 1 to 10.
PASSAGE 1
Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effect of
global warming, Scientists have already observerd shifts in the lifecycles of many plants
and animals, such as flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in the spring.
Many species have begun shifting where they live or their annual migration patterns due
to warmer temperatures.
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up
mountainsides toward higher elevations. Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges,
seeking new areas as old habitats grow too warm. In many places, however, human
development will prevent these shifts. Species that find cities or farmland blocking their
way north or south may become extinct. Species living in unique ecosystems, such as
those found in polar and mountantop regions, are especially at risk because migration to
new habitats is not possible. For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the Arctic
are already threatened by dwindling sea ice but have nowhere farther to go.
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult. Some scientists
have estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extiction with 2
to 3 Celsius degrees of further warming. The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is
extremely important for plants and animals. Some species and even entire ecosystems,
such as certain types of forest, many not be able to adjust quickly enough and may
disappear.
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by
global warming. Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach”, a state which
if prolonged will lead to the death of the coral. Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius
degree of additional warming could lead to widespread bleaching and death of coral reefs
around the world. Also increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere enters the ocean and
increases the acidity of ocean waters. This acidification furter stresses ocean ecosystems.

PASSAGE 2
Overpopulation, the situation of having large numbers of people with too few resources
and too little space, is closely associated with poverty. It can result from high population
density, or from low amounts of resources, or from both. Excessively high population
densities put stress on available resources. Only a certain number of people can be
supported o a given area of land, and that number depends on how much food and other
resources the land can Nprovide. In countries where people live primarily by means of
simple farming, gardening, herding, hunting, and gathering, even large areas of land can
support only small numbers of people because these labor - intensive subsistence
activities produce only small amounts of food.
In developed countries such as the United States, Japan and the countries of Western
Europe, overpopulation generally is not considered a major cause of poverty. These
countries produce large quantities of food through mechanized farming, which depends
on commercial fertilizers, large - scale irrigation, and agricultural machinery. This form of
production provides enough food to support the high densities of people in metropolitan
areas.
A country's level of poverty can depend greatly on its mix of population density and
agricultural productivity. Bangladesh, for example, has one of the world's highest
population densities, with 1,147 persons per sq km. A large majority of the people of
Bangladesh engage in low - productivity manual farming, which contributes to the
country's extremely high level of poverty. Some of the smaller countries in Western
Europe, such as the Netherlands and Belgium, have high population densities as well.
These countries practice mechanized farming and are involved in high - tech indutries,
however, are therefore have high standards of living.
At the other end of the spectrum, many countries in sub - Saharan Africa have
population densities of less than 30 persons per sq km. Many people in these countries
practice manual subsistence farming, these countries also have infertile land, and lack
the economic resources and technology to boost productivity. As a consequence, these
nations are very poor. The United States has both relatively low population density and
high agricultural productivity; it is one of the world's weathiest nations.
High birth rates contribute to overpopulation in many developing countries. Children are
assets to many poor families because they provide labor, usually for farming. Cultural
norms in traditionally rural societies commonly sanction the value of large families. Also,
the goverments of developing countries often provide little or no support, financial or
political, for farming planning; even people who wish to keep their families small have
difficulty doing so. For all those reasons, developing countries tend to have high rates of
population growth.

PASSAGE 3
Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of
the classical and medieval worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term "reading"
undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during thenineleenthcenturydid silent reading
become commonplace.
One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply
because reading aloud was a distraction to others. Examinations of factors related to the
historical development of silent reading have revealed that it became the usual mode of
reading for most adults mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character. The
last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers.
As the number of readers increased, the number of potential listeners declined and
thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of
listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of reading as a private activity in
such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud would
cause distraction to other readers.
Towards the end of the century, there was still considerable argument over whether
books should be used for information or treated respectfully and over whether the reading
of materials such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed, this
argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its virtues, the old shared
literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand
and by books and periodicals for a specialised readership on the other.
By the end of the twentieth century, students were being recommended to adopt
attitudes Mto books and to use reading skills which were inappropriate, if not impossible,
for the oral Mreader. The social, cultural and technological changes in the century had
greatly altered what the term "reading" implied.

PASSAGE 4
The Sun today is a yellow dwarf star. It is fueled by thermonuclear reactions near its
center that convert hydrogen to helium. The Sun has existed in its present state for about
four billion six hundred million years and is thousands of times larger than the Earth.
By studying other stars, astronomers can predict what the rest of the Sun's life will be
like. About five billion years from now, the core of the Sun will shrink and become hotter.
The surface temperature will fall. The higher temperature of the center will increase the
rate of thermonuclear reactions. The outer regions of the Sun will expand approximately
35 million miles, about the distance to Mercury, which is the closest planet to the Sun.
The Sun will then be a red giant star. Temperatures on the Earth will become too high
for life to exist.
Once the Sun has used up its thermonuclear energy as a red giant, it will begin to
shrink. After it shrinks to the size of the Earth, it will become a white dwarf star. The Sun
may throw off huge amounts of gases in violent eruptions called nova explosions as it
changes from a red giant to a white dwarf.
After billions of years as a white dwarf, the Sun will have used up all its fuel and will
have lost its heat. Such a star is called a black dwarf. After the Sun has become a black
dwarf, the Earth will be dark and cold. If any atmosphere remains there, it will have
frozen over the Earth’s surface.
(Đề thi tuyển sinh đại học năm 2008)

Question 1: It can be inferred from the passage that the Sun________.

A. is approximately halfway through its life as a yellow dwarf star.
B. will continue to be a yellow dwarf for another 10 billion years.
C. has been in existence for 10 billion years.
D. is rapidly changing in size and brightness.
Question 2: What will probably be the first stage of change for the Sun to become a red
giant?
A. Its surface will become hotter and shrink.
B. It will throw off huge amounts of gases.
C. Its central part will grow smaller and hotter.
D. Its core will cool off and use less fuel.
Question 3: When the Sun becomes a red giant, what will the atmosphere be like on
the Earth?
A. It will be enveloped in the expanding surface of the sun.

PASSGAE 5
Probably the most famous film commenting on the twentieth-century technology
is Modem BTimes, made in 1936. Charlie Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a
reporter who, while interviewing him, happened to describe the working conditions in
industrial Detroit. Chaplin was told that healthy young farm boys were lured to the city
to work on automotive assembly lines. Within four or five years, these young men's health
was destroyed by the stress of work in the factories.
The film opens with a shot of a mass of sheep making their way down a crowded
ramp. Abruptly, the film shifts to a scene of factory workers jostling one another on their
way to a factory. However, the rather bitter note of criticism in the implied comparison is
not sustained. It is replaced by a gentle note of satire. Chaplin prefers to entertain rather
than lecture.
Scenes of factory interiors account for only about one-third of Modern Times, but
they contain some of the most pointed social commentary as well as the most comic
situations. No one who has seen the film can ever forget Chaplin vainly trying to keep
pace with the fast-moving conveyor belt, almost losing his mind in the process. Another
popular scene involves an automatic feeding machine brought to the assembly line so
that workers need not interrupt their labor to eat. MThe feeding machine malfunctions,
hurling food at Chaplin, who is strapped in his position on the assembly line and cannot
escape. This serves to illustrate people's utter helplessness in the face of machines that
are meant to serve their basic needs.
Clearly, Modern Times has its faults, but it remains the best film treating
technology within a social context. It does not offer a radical social message, but it does
accurately reflect the sentiment of many who feel they are victims of an over -
mechanized world.

PASSAGE 6
Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and
gathering in the natural environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting
from nature’s provision is the oldest known subsistence strategy and has been practised
for at least the last two million years. It was, indeed, the only way to obtain food until
rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced about 10,000
years ago.
Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural
cousins, their numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal
environments, such as deserts and arctic wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter
growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant life. Such conditions have caused
a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and waterways. The
abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has
provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the
environmental differences have restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the
development of subsistence societies.
Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors.
We know from the observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska\
that a society based on hunting and gathering must be very mobile. While the entire
community camps in a central location, a smaller party harvests the food within a
reasonable distancefrom the camp. When the food in the area has become exhausted,
the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration
patterns evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between
the sexes. These patterns of behavior may be similar to those practised by mankind
during the Paleolithic Period.

PASSAGE 7
It's often said that we learn things at the wrong time. University students
frequently do the minimum of work because they're crazy about a good social life instead.
Children often scream before their piano practice because it’s so boring. They have to be
given gold stars and medals to be persuaded to swim, or have to be bribed to take exams.
But the story is different when you’re older.
Over the years, I've done my share of adult learning. At 30, I went to a college
and did courses in History and English. It was an amazing experience. For starters, I was
paying, so there was no reason to be late - I was the one frowning and drumming my
fingers if the tutor was late, not the other way round. Indeed, if I could persuade him to
linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus, not a nuisance. I wasn't frightened to ask
Questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I passed an exam, I had
passed it for me and me alone, not for my parents or my teachers. The satisfaction I got
was entirely personal
Some people fear going back to school because they worry that their brains have
got rusty. But the joy is that, although some parts have rusted up, your brain has learnt
all kinds of other things since you were young. It has learnt to think independently and
flexibly and is much better at relating one thing to another. What you lose in the rusty
department, you gain in the maturity department.
In some ways, age is a positive plus. For instance, when you're older, you get less
frustrated.
Experience has told you that, if you're calm and simply do something carefully again and
again, eventually you'll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas - from
being able to drive a car, perhaps - means that if you can’t, say, build a chair instantly,
you don't, like a child, want to destroy your first pathetic attempts. Maturity tells you that
you will, with application, eventually get there.
I hated piano lessons at school, but I was good at music. And coming back to it,
with a teacher who could explain why certain exercises were useful and with musical
concepts that, at the age of ten, I could never grasp, was magical. Initially, I did feel a
bit strange, thumping out a piece that I'd played for my school exams, with just as little
comprehension of what the composer intended as I'd had all those years before. But
soon, complex emotions that I never knew poured out from my fingers, and suddenly I
could understand why practice makes perfect.

PASSAGE 8
In the West, cartoons are used chiefly to make people laugh. The important
feature of all these cartoons is the joke and the element of surprise which is contained.
Even though it is very funny, a good cartoon is always based on close observation of a
particular feature of life and usually has a serious purpose.
Cartoons in the West have been associated with political and social matters for
many years. In wartime, for example, they proved to be an excellent way of spreading
propaganda. Nowadays cartoons are often used to make short, sharp comments on
politics and governments as well as on a variety of social matters. In this way, the modern
cartoon has become a very powerful force in influencing people in Europe and tlie United
States.
Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese cartoon
drawings in the past have also attempted to educate people, especially those who could
not read and write. Such cartoons about the lives and sayings of great men in China have
proved extremely useful in bringing education to illiterate and semi-literate people
throughout China. Confucius, Mencius and Laozi have all appeared in very interesting
Stories presented in the form of cartoons. The cartoons themselves have thus served to
illustrate the teachings of the Chinese sages in a very attractive way.
In this sense many Chinese cartoons are different from Western cartoons in so far
as they do not depend chiefly on telling jokes. Often, there is nothing to laugh at when
you see Chinese cartoons. This is not their primary aim. In addition to commenting on
serious political and social matters, Chinese cartoons have aimed at spreading the
traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely as possible among the people.
Today, however, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading
knowledge. They offer a very attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout
the world, regardless of the particular country in which they live. Thus, through cartoons,
the thoughts and teachings of the old Chinese philosophers and sages can now reach
people who live in such countries as Britain, France, America, Japan, Malaysia or Australia
and who are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture.
Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly
from the West to the East and not vice versa. By means of cartoons, however, publishing
companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore are now having success in correcting
this imbalance between the East and the West.
Cartoons can overcome language barriers in all foreign countries. The vast increase
in the popularity of these cartoons serves to illustrate the truth of Confucius's famous
saying "One picture is worth a thousand words.”

A. the discrimination between the West culture and the East culture

PASSAGE 9
Culture is a word in common use with complex meanings, and is derived, like the
term broadcasting, from the treatment and care of the soil and of what grows on it. It is
directly related to cultivation and the adjectives cultural and cultured are part of the same
verbal complex. A person of culture has identifiable attributes, among them are
knowledge of and interest in the arts, literature, and music. Yet the word culture does
not refer solely to such knowledge and interest nor, indeed, to education. At least from
the 19th century onwards, under the influence of anthropologists and sociologists, the
word culture means has come to be used generally both in the singular and the plural
(cultures) to refer to a whole way of life of people, including their customs, laws,
conventions, and values.
Distinctions have consequently been drawn between primitive and advanced
culture and cultures, between elite and popular culture, between popular and mass
culture, and most recently between national and global cultures. Distinctions have been
drawn too between culture and civilization; the latter is a word derived not, like culture
or agriculture, from the soil, but from the city.The two words are sometimes treated as
synonymous. Yet this is misleading. While civilization and barbarism are pitted against
each other in what seems to be a perpetual behavioural pattern, the use of the word
culture has been strongly influenced by conceptions of evolution in the 19th century and
of development in the 20th
century. Cultures evolve or develop. They are not static. They have twists and turns.
Styles change. So do fashions. There are cultural processes. What, for example, the word
cultured has changed substantially since the study of classical (that is, Greek and Roman)
literature, philosophy, and history ceased in the 20th century to be central to school and
university Meducation. No single alternative focus emerged, although with computers has
come electronic culture, affecting kinds of study, and most recently digital culture. As
cultures express themselves in new forms not everything gets better or more civilized.
The multiplicity of meanings attached to the word made and will make it difficult
to define. There is no single, unprobfematic definition, although many attempts have
been made to\ establish one. The only non-problematic definitions go back to agricultural
meaning (for example cereal culture or strawberry culture) and medical meaning (for
example, bacterial culture or penicillin culture). Since in anthropology and sociology we
also acknowledge culture clashes, culture shock and counter- culture, the range of
reference is extremely wide,

PASSAGE 10
The issue of equality for women in British society first attracted national attention
in the early 20th century, when the suffragettes won for women the right to vote. In the
1960s feminism became the subject of intense debate when the women's liberation
movementencouraged women to reject their traditional supporting role and to demand
equal status and equal rights with men in areas such as employment and pay.
Since then, the gender gap between the sexes has been reduced. The Equal Pay
Act of M1970, for instance, made it illegal for women to be paid less than men for doing
the same work, and in 1975 the Sex Discrimination Act aimed to prevent either sex having
an unfair advantage when applying for jobs. In the same year the Equal Opportunities
Commission was set up to help people claim their rights to equal treatment and to publish
research and statistics to show where improvements in opportunities for women need to
be made. Women now have much better employment opportunities, though they still
tend to get less well-paid jobs than men, and very few are appointed to top jobs in
industry.
In the US the movement that is often called the "first wave of feminism' began in
the mid 1800s. Susan B. Anthony worked for the right to vote, Margaret Sanger wanted
to provide women with the means of contraception so that they could decide whether or
not to have children, and Elizabeth Blackwell, who had to fight for the chance to become
a doctor, wanted women to have greater opportunities to study. Many feminists were
interested in other social issues.
The second wave of feminism began in the 1960s. Women like Betty Friedan and
Gloria Steinem became associated with the fight to get equal rights and opportunities for
women under the law. An important issue was the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which
was intended to change the Constitution. Although the ERA was not passed, there was
progress in other areas. It became illegal for employers, schools, clubs, etC. to
discriminate against women. But women still find it hard to advance beyond a certain
point in their careers, the so-called glass ceiling that prevents them from having high-
level jobs. Many women also face the problem of the second shift, i.e. the household
chores.
In the 1980s, feminism became less popular in the us and there was less interest
in solving the remaining problems, such as the fact that most women still earn much less
than men. Although there is still discrimination, the principle that it should not exist is
widely accepted.
