Part 7. Read the following passage and decide if the statements that are TRUE or FALSE. (1m)
It might sound strange to you but these are some important rules. If you want to pass examinations,
then study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, try to learn English without studying
too much grammar because that will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules
when creating sentences instead of speaking naturally like a native speaker. Some native speakers do not
know so many grammar rules as non-native students do.
Everyone can speak at least one language whether they are intelligent, or lack some brain power. This
could be achieved by being surrounded by that language at all times. You may notice that there are also some
people who study abroad and learn very little. That is because they go to an English speaking school, but find
friends from their own country and don’t practice English. Some others can speak English well because they
live in an English speaking environment.
Therefore, why don’t you surround yourself with English? Make rules with some friends that you will
only speak English when meeting up for a coffee, for example. You can also carry around an iPod and listen
to English as much as possible.
1. You don’t need to study too much grammar to be fluent in English.
2. You need to be quite intelligent to study a language well.
3. Living in an English speaking environment, people will not learn the language better.
4. An iPod may be useful for you to improve your listening skill.

diseases and never needed extra exercise because their daily work kept their bodies running.
At present, we have turned the agriculture into a mass scale production, including machinery,technology
and pesticides, all of which came in with the green revolution. With green revolution agriculture and the
traditional farming culture turned upside down. As far nor now, farmers who are able to cope up with the
multinational cooperation’s and their large-scale, expensive products, pesticides and high-yielding varieties of
seeds, keepproducing crops for the market. Yet the traditional, low-income farmers even today, especially in
Asian countries, are in a dire state.
Fast food is another major factor in modern food habits. Although many people find it convenient, it leads
to many health conditions. Today people are unhealthy, needs medicine and functions on diets and exercise
machines.

Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world's energy

economically try to find out alternative sources of power. According to Professor Ma Burnham of the New
England Institute of Technology, we have to start conserving coal, oil and gas before it is too late; and nuclear
power the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it is very dangerous. What
would happen if there were a serious nuclear accident? Radioactivity causes cancer and may badly affect the
future generations.
The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as economically as possible.

1. Natural resources will never run out.

2. We don’t know exactly how much fuel is left.
3. According to Mr. Burnham, solar energy can be used as a substitute for natural resources.

More than two hundred years ago, the term 'environmental pollution’ was quite strange to people.
They lived healthily, drank pure water, and breathed fresh air. Nowadays, the situation is quite different.
People all over the world are worried about things that are happening to the environment. Actually it is man
that is destroying the surroundings with many kinds of wastes. Everybody knows that motorbikes and cars
emit dangerous gases that cause poisonous air and cancer, but no one wants to travel on foot or by bicycle.
Manufactures know that wastes from factories make water and soil polluted, but they do not want to spend a
lot of their money on treating the wastes safely. Scattering garbage is bad for our health, but no one wants to
spend time burying it. Is it worth talking a lot about pollution?

in cities. City wastes cause water pollution when they are poured into the waterways. These wastes kill fish
and make some areas unfit for swimming. In addition, many large cities have difficulties in disposing of their
garbage. The amount of garbage grows each year, but places to put it are quickly filling up. Citizens,
governments, industries, scientists, and business people must work together in different ways to gradually
reduce pollution. For example, most cities have introduced recycling programmes.

Heritage Sites, such as Ha Long Bay, Hoi An Ancient Town, My- Son Tower. Through her mail, she tells me

short by the end of the century, and will run out during the 21st century unless new supplies are found. We
could do without natural gas, as coal as can be used as a substitute, and there should be enough coal to last for
several centuries. However, it is a form of energy which is not only cheap, but also highly efficient.

areas. They happen in places where pieces ofthe earth's surface meet. For example, earthquakes often occur
on the west-coast of North and South America, around the Mediterranean Sea, and along the Pacific coast of
Asia. Another way to predict earthquakes is to look for changes in the earth's surface, like a sudden drop of
water level in the ground. Some people say animals can predict earthquakes. Before earthquakes people have
seen chickens sitting in trees, fish jumping out of the water, snakes leaving their holes and other animals
acting strangely.

We can develop alternative sources of energy, and unless we try we’ll never succeed. Instead of
burning fossil fuels we should be concentrating on more economical uses of electricity, because electricity can
be produced from any sources of energy. If we didn’t waste so much energy, our resources would last longer.
We can save more energy by conservation than we can produce for the same money. Unless we do research
on solar energy, wind power, tidal power, hydroelectric plants … our fossil fuels will run out and we’ll all
freeze or starve to death. Several countries are spending much more time and money on research because the
energy from the sun, the waves, and the winds last forever. We won’t really survive unless we start working
on cleaner and safer sources of energy.
1. Fossil fuels are renewable sources of energy.
2. Electricity can be produced from the sea.
3. The energy from the sun, the waves and the winds will never be used up.
4. We really need to worry about cleaner and safer sources of energy.

One of the most important discoveries of the nineteenth century was a method of using natural gas for

below the surface of the earth.
For many years after natural gas first discovered, it was thought to have no value. Finally, however,
people began to understand its uses and to find ways of storing it and of moving it from place to place.
Today natural gas is stored in large tanks and used for lighting, cooking, and heating. In many ways,
natural gas is one of our finest fuels. It is cheap and can be used for cooking without making the room hot. It
can be moved easily from one place to another through long pipelines, some of which are hundreds of miles in
length.
1. Natural gas was first used for cooking and heating in the nineteenth century .
2. Natural gas can not be stored.
3. Natural gas is one of our best fuels?

produced dangerous gases that cause air pollution. Wastes from factories have made water and soil polluted.

I believe that it is important to wear uniforms when students are at school. Firstly, uniforms encourage the

with labels bearing their school's name. Secondly, wearing uniforms helps students feel equal in many ways.
They all start from the same place no matter they are wealthy or [Link] are really friends to one
another under one school roof. Last but not least, it is practical to wear uniforms. It doesn't take you time to
think of what to wear every day. In conclusion, all students, from primary to high schools should wear
uniforms.
[Link] to the writer, wearing uniforms is neccessary for the children.
