We went camping at Ba Vi National Park, 60 kilometres to the west of Ha Noi. Our teacher chose
this location as it is not far from Ha Noi and is famous as a mountainous ecological tourism
centre. It is home to hundreds of wildlife species, so we had a chance to get into a real natural
habitat.
We went there on a coach. We set off early and because the road was a bit bumpy and tricky, we
were tired when we arrived. After about two hours, we finally reached the campsite in Ngoc
Hoa cave area. We set up our camps before exploring the park. We explored the rich nature in
the Botanical Garden, trying to take deep breaths of the fresh air and enjoying the diversity of
the flora there. We took photos of the places we saw. At night, we burnt wood for a campfire.
We sat around the fire and sang and danced. We also had team-building activities, which were
exciting and memorable. On the next day, we went trekking to Thuong Temple - a national
cultural monument at Tan Vien Peak. We learnt much about the culture associated with the
legend Son Tinh and Thuy Tinh from our guide.
We tried lam rice, hill chicken and milk products - the specialities of the area. We were so
impressed by the trip's activities, scenery and the food of the area.

London, the capital city of England and the United Kingdom, is situated on the River
Thames, which meanders through the city. It is renowned for its numerous bridges. Among the
bridges, the oldest one is London Bridge, which was originally built of wood but reconstructed in
stone in 1217. However, the most unique bridge is Tower Bridge, which was designed to blend in
with the nearby Tower of London.
London is a thriving commercial and cultural centre with many significant financial
organisations such as the Bank of England and the London Stock Exchange. They are located in
the area called the City. Docklands, the former port in east London, has been redeveloped as a
business centre. The West End boasts theatres, cinemas, museums, and stores. Due to the high
cost of housing near the city centre, many people working in London prefer to live in the suburbs
and commute to work by train or bus. London’s transportation system is well-connected, with
various modes of transportation available, including the red London buses, black taxi cabs, and
the London Underground, commonly known as ‘the Tube’!
London is now a cosmopolitan, multicultural city which has attracted people from around
the globe. Although some people from other parts of Britain view it as very noisy and dirty, many
others visit London only for the ‘bright lights’ - the theatres round Shaftesbury Avenue or the
shops of Oxford Street. People also take their children to visit Buckingham Palace, where the
royal family lives, and the clock tower, from which Big Ben tolls the hour. Young people, on the
other hand, are lured to the pubs and comedy clubs of Covent Garden, live music concerts, and
the stalls of Camden market.
1. What was designed to blend in with the nearby Tower of London?
A. London Bridge. B. Bank of England.
C. Tower Bridge. D. Big Ben.
2. Which area of London is known for its many important financial institutions?
A. Docklands. B. West End. C. The City. D. Covent Garden.
3. What is the main reason why many people who work in London commute from the suburbs?
A. Better housing options in the city centre. B. Better schools for their children in the suburbs.
C. Cheaper cost of living in the city centre. D. Expensive property prices near the city centre.
4. What does the pronoun “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. the globe B. the Tube C. London D. the theatre
5. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. London is a thriving commercial and cultural centre.

Before the wheel was invented thousands of years ago, the only way to get from one place to
another was (1) ____ our legs or riding animals, such as horses, camels, or donkeys.

Wheels today are on all sorts of vehicles from cars to planes, from bikes to skateboards. We

technology. Important applications of the wheel include the water wheel and the spinning
wheel. More (5) _____ applications include the jet engine and the turbine.

VI. Read the text and then choose the best answer A, B, C or D. (1.25pt)
If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we would probably have to say that we
could not remember. But if we kept a book and wrote in it an account of what we did each day,
we should be able to give an answer. In a way, this is similar to history.

Most people are proud to tell you what their ancestors did in the past. We may call
this remembered history. But many things have been forgotten because we do not have any
28
ANH 9- ki 1 (24-25)
written account of them. Sometimes people kept a record of the most important happenings in
their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any
written record because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For
example, we know a lot about the people who lived in China about 2,500 years ago because they
could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know little about
the people who lived just 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had no writing system.

Sometimes, even if people cannot write, they may know something of the past.

They have heard about it from older people, and often songs, dances, and stories have been
made about the most important past events, and these have been sung about, acted and told for
generations.

system

4. The underlined word "they" in the passage refers to _____.

A. people who cannot write B. older people

C. songs, dances, and stories D. the most important happenings

5. We can infer from the passage that we could know more about our past if our ancestors had
_____.

READING ( 2.5 points).
V Read the passage and mark A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
following question.
In the recent survey, more than 80% of American high school students work at part-time jobs
in the evenings, on weekends or in summer. These part-time jobs bring teenagers great
advantages.
One of the benefits of the work is the students can learn the skills that will be useful for the
rest of their lives. When they work, they have to manage both the job and schoolwork. To be able
to do so, they must be very organized and able to keep a sensible schedule. They also learn
to cope with the job stress apart from the stress of the schoolwork. Some of the most stressful
jobs include teaching, nursing, and police work. These skills help prepare teenagers for their
later careers. High school students who work are more likely to succeed as adults than people
who enter the job market at a later age with no work experience. Teenagers want a lot of
expensive things: clothes, mp3 players, trips with their friends, etc. Not all parents can afford
them. And even if they can, the teens might not really appreciate that money because they did
not earn it. When teenagers make money for themselves, they know its true and are less likely to
spend it foolishly.

A.Why teenagers should work C.USA high school students work at part-time jobs in the

VI. Read the passage and do the exercises. Choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D. (1,25pt)
Twenty years ago, people tried to leave the suburbs for cities but nowadays many
people are reluctant to make such a move. They say that compared to suburban
areas, city life has many drawbacks.
The high cost of living is the first disadvantage. The bigger the city is, the higher the
living cost is. Accommodation and petrol are expensive. Food and drinks are also
pricey. Apart from that, city people seem to suffer from more noise and air pollution.
The densely populated neighbourhoods, busy traffic, and big construction sites make
cities noisy and dusty. These are harmful to people's health, such as increasing their
stress levels, disturbing their sleep and making them suffer from breathing problems.
Lack of space is another drawback of city life. House prices are high in the city, so
people tend to live in smaller houses or in apartment blocks. Many cities lack spaces
for outdoor activities; therefore, teenagers often hang out at shopping malls or in
entertainment complexes instead of doing sports outdoors.
The cities' authorities are trying to overcome these problems. However, they still
have a long way to go before they can reduce living costs and pollution, and increase
green space to make all cities in the world more liveable places.
