VIII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer

sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Arthur Dove

Arthur Dove was an abstract nature painter whose work was radically different and

underappreciated in the American art scene.

[1] In fact, Dove was the first American artist to paint in an entirely abstract manner. [2]

He painted a set of six abstract works around 1910, prior to the European artist Wassily

Kandinsky’s famous abstract compositions. [3] Kandinsky’s abstract work, however,

complemented the cultural context in Europe, and was therefore appreciated. Dove’s

work had no similar cultural context in America. [4]

Overall, Dove's abstract paintings did nothing to change Amercican art. His work was not

once but twice orphaned: by the general indifference of the Amercican public, and by

his own reclusive nature. Nevertheless, Dove's abstract paintings remain interesting

compositions on nature.

Dove once wrote, “I would like to make something that is real in itself, or to be real

without looking like something else, that does not remind anyone of any other thing, and

that does not have to be explained, like the letter A for instance.”

Question 45: What is the main purpose of this passage?

D. to explain why Dove’s paintings did not change the American art scene

Question 46: According to the passage, why weren’t Dove’s works noticed?

A. Because there were too many abstract nature painters at the time.

B. Because his paintings did nothing to change society.

C. Because they did not have a cultural context in America.

D. Because America was not interested in European painters.

Question 47: The word "orphaned" in the passage is closest in meaning to ____.

A. criticized B. ignored C. valued D. destroyed

Question 48: According to the passage, which of the following is not true about Dove

and Kandinsky?

A. One was popular, while the other not.

B. They were both European painters.

IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet

to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Television

An American TV network has had an international hit with the drama "24”. a thriller

known for its suspense and often graphic violence. Over the past year, controversy has

surrounded the series because of its portrayal of Muslim terrorists and its frequent scenes

of torture. But the content of “24” is not the only thing that would have been unthinkable

on prime−time television 20 years ago. Its form also represents a major change in modem

TV: during each episode’s 44 minutes − a real−time hour, minus 16 minutes for

commercials – the show connects the lives of 21 different characters, each with their own

personalities and specific relationships with other characters. Nine different story lines (or

“threads") arc depicted, eachinvolving events and information revealed in previous

episodes. [ I ]

[2] For years many people have assumed that popular culture is in a state of decline

rapidly degenerating into “junk culture" with no worthwhile purpose. But an interesting

new book challenges that assumption. “Everything Bad is Good for You: How Today’s

Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter," by Steven Johnson, makes a persuasive

argument that today’s complex TV dramas and other pop culture Products gives healthy

mental exercise. He calls the use or complex, interwoven plot lines involving multiple

characters “multi−threading”, and it is a new and growing phenomenon in TV To keep up

with shows like “24", he points out, you must “pay attention, make inferences, track

shifting social relationships", and these cognitive challenges are changịng our mental

development for the better. [3]

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí[4] The most obvious change in the last five years of narrative entertainment is the rise of

reality TV, Surely, you might be thinking, watching “Survivor" or “The Bachelor” cannot

possibly raise anyone's IQ “Survivor” is now in its tenth season, and “The Bachelor” is in

its seventh. But as Johnson tells us lately “even the junk has improved”. The new reality

shows are like games: they arc series of competitive tests, each more challenging than the

last, and with rules that must be learned as you play. On “Survivor" for instance, the

participants and the audience know the general objective of the game but each episode

brings new challenges that require quick thinking. Success in these games calls for the

intellectual labor of finding the weak spots in the rules and in your opponents. This labor

is done not just by the stars of the shows but the viewers at home as well. This is what

makes these shows such fun to watch − the human mind enjoys being challenged. As

Johnson writes, “There’s real pleasure ... in solving puzzles, detecting patterns or

understanding a complex narrative system.”

Question 55: What is the topic of the passage?

A. The decline of TV today B. Benefits of TV today

C. TV and culture D. Why “24” became a hit

Question 56: Which is the best place for the following sentence?

“It is not only hour−long dramas that make us smarter."

A. [l] B. [2] C. [3] D. [4]

Question 57: The word “each” in paragraph I refers to ____. .

A. story lines B. characters C. episodes D. personalities

Question 58: The author begins the passage by discussing “24” in order to ____.

A. prove that TV has become much more violent

B. show how TV has become more complex

C. explain why many TV shows nowadays are controversial

D. argue against ỈIS graphic violence and portrayal of terrorists

Question 59: It can be inferred that the author of the passage

A. agrees with Steven Johnson’s views

B. strongly disagrees with Steven Johnson's views

C. has no opinion about Steven Johnson’s views

D. agrees with some of Johnson’s views but disagrees with others

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíQuestion 60: According to the passage, Johnson’s book argues all following except that

____.

A. popular culture is not in decline

B. many TV shows involve cognitive challenges

C. people enjoy the effort of understanding complex shows

D. hour−long dramas bring the greatest benefits

Question 61: "Multi−threading" in TV is a new type of ____. .

A. form B. content C. series D. character

.

A. emphasize how worthless most TV shows are

B. contrast a common view of TV with the one he presents in the passage

C. explain why TV viewing is in decline in the United States

D. argue against the view that popular culture can be worthwhile

Question 63: The word “they" in paragraph 3 refers to ____.

A. junk B. shows C. games D. “Joe Millionaire” and "The Bachelor”

Question 64: The word "detecting" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ____ .

A. making B. admiring C. remembering D. finding

Part II. Complete the second sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first

Amercican public, and by his own reclusive nature.


Đáp án là C. Ý trong bài so sánh giữa tác phẩm được đề cao của Kandinsky và Dove:

Kandinsky’s famous abstract compositions.

→ Đáp án là A. Dove muốn tạo ra tác phẩm nghệ thuật mà là hoàn toàn độc đáo.

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíQuestion 54. Đáp án D

James Whistler

James Whistler was born in 1834 in Massachusetts, the son of a West Point graduate

and civil engineer. [1] He moved with his family at the age of nine to St. Peterdburg,

Russia, where he studied drawing. At age 14, he joined his sister her husband in London

to continue his studies in art. A year later, following the death of his father, he returned to

America and lived in Connecticut. He attended but flunked out of West Point because of

his inadquacies in chemistry. [2] Affronted at what he considered to be America’s poor

treatment of artists, and perhaps because of his academic failure, Whistler moves to

Europe permanently in 1855 at the age of 21. He first lived and studied in Paris, where he

was influenced by Coubet’s Realism and was associated with the avant garde.

Whistler moved to London four years later and became known for his

outspokenness, controversy,

expensive lifestyle and frequent debt. [3] In 1866 he traveled to Chile, returning to

London a year later. By 1879, he was bankrupt, and went to Venice for a year, where be

was commissioned to create a series paintings of the city. By the late 1880s he had

achieved international fame, and was president of the Society of British Artists from 1886

to 1888. He published his manifesto, theGentle Art of Making Enemies, in 1890. In 1888

at the age of 54 he married Beatrix Godwin, a widow who died eight years later of

cancer, Whistler followed her in death seven years later, at the age of 69[4].

Whistler's paintings are well-regarded, though he never achieved greatness;

nevertheless, he considered to have been a major influence in England's modern art

movement. He hated the narrative, and he refused to teach morals through art. He rejected

scenes of ordinary life, preferring to depict

well-designed moments. Critics have noted that the placid nature of his paintings was in

sharp contrast to the wildness of his lifestyle. One of his more famous works, generally

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíreferred to as “Whistler's Mother" but which he controversially titled "Arrangement in

Grey and Black, NO. 1” places him in the pantheon of American artists. It is thus ironic

that he spent his adult life in Europe, primarily in England, and that painting of his

mother was purchased by government of France and resides in the Museed’ Orsay of

Paris.

Question 55: What is the topic of the passage?

Question 58: According to the passage, Whistler’s painting are ________

A. quiet and conservative B. outspoken and controversial

C.well-designed and placid D. wild and original

Question 59: The word “ Affronted” in paragraph 1 is closest meaning to ________

1. Whistler and his family

2. Whistler’s art and another American art

3. Whistler’s lifestyle and his paintings

4. Whistler’s views and critics’s views

Question 64: Complete the summary by choosing one sentence ( A, B, C or D ) that is

among the most important information to fill in the blank.

1. Influences on Whistler’s art were many, but perhaps the most important ones were the

Pre-Raphaelites and the Realism of Coubet

2. Whistler’s work, which places him among the best American painters, reflected the

lavish nature of his lifestyle.

3. Whistler was born in the US. But in his youth traveled in Europe, eventually moving

there, partly because of America’s poor treatment of artists.

4. Whistler hated the narrative, and he refused to teach morals through art

SUMMARY: This passage discusses the life and art of James Whistler. Whistler was an

internationally famous artist by the 1880s and died at the age of 69. ________ The young

Whistler led a controversial life in London, and continued to travel, notably to the

Netherlands and Venice. Today Whistler is not considered great, though his work –

broadens my mind improves my knowledge. They help me distinguish the bad from the

good and prevent me from doing wrong. Reading books brings me minutes of happiness

and pleasures. I have found a source of consolation and encouragement in books when I

am in despair. They're my true companions indeed. How relieved and comforted I feel

when I can find in good books good teachers and friends! Instead of indulging myself in

futile entertainments, I often absorbed in reading interesting books which always have

miracles to soothe my sorrows and hardships and reveal to me strange and new horizons.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet


Scientists do not yet thoroughly understand just how the body of an individual becomes

sensitive to a substance that is harmless or even wholesome for the average person. Milk,

wheat, and egg, for example, rank among the most healthful and widely used foods. Yet

these foods can cause persons sensitive to them to suffer greatly. At first, the body of the

individual is not harmed by coming into contact with the substance. After a varying

interval of time, usually longer than a few weeks, the body becomes sensitive to it, and an

allergy has begun to develop. Sometimes it's hard to figure out if you have a food allergy,

since it can show up so many different ways. Your symptoms could be caused by many

other problems. You may have rashes, hives, joint pains mimicking arthritis, headaches,

irritability, or depression. The most common food allergies are to milk, eggs, seafood,

wheat, nuts, seeds, chocolate, oranges, and tomatoes. Many of these allergies will not

develop if these foods are not fed to an infant until her or his intestines mature at around

seven months. Breast milk also tends to be protective. Migraines can be set off by foods

containing tyramine, phenathylamine, monosodium glutamate, or sodium nitrate.

Common foods which contain these are chocolate, aged cheeses, sour cream, red wine,

pickled herring, chicken livers, avocados, ripe bananas, cured meats, many Oriental and

prepared foods (read the labels!). Some people have been successful in treating their

migraines with supplements of B-vitamins, particularly B6 and niacin. Children who are

hyperactive may benefit from eliminating food additives, especially colorings, and foods

high in salicylates from their diets. A few of these are almonds, green peppers, peaches,

tea, grapes. This is the diet made popular by Benjamin Feingold, who has written the

book “Why your Child is Hyperactive”. Other researchers have had mixed results when

testing whether the diet is effective.

Iron production was revolutionized in the early eighteenth century when coke was first

used instead of charcoal for refining iron ore. Previously the poor quality of the iron had

restricted its use in architecture to items such as chains and tie bars for supporting arches,

vaults, and walls. With the improvement in refining ore, it was now possible to make

cast-iron beams, columns, and girders. During the nineteenth century further advances

were made, notably Bessemer's process for converting iron into steel, which made the

material more commercially viable.

Iron was rapidly adopted for the construction of bridges, because its strength was far

greater than that of stone or timber, but its use in the architecture of buildings developed

more slowly. By 1800 a complete internal iron skeleton for buildings had been developed

in industrial architecture replacing traditional timber beams, but it generally remained

concealed. Apart from its low cost, the appeal of iron as a building material lay in its

strength, its resistance to fire, and its potential to span vast areas. As a result, iron became

increasingly popular as a structural material for more traditional styles of architecture

during the nineteenth century, but it was invariably concealed.

Significantly, the use of exposed iron occurred mainly in the new building types spawned

by the Industrial Revolution: in factories, warehouses, commercial offices, exhibition

hall, and railroad stations, where its practical advantages far outweighed its lack of status.

Designers of the railroad stations of the new age explored the potential of iron, covering

huge areas with spans that surpassed the great vaults of medieval churches and

cathedrals. Paxton's Crystal Palace, designed to house the Great Exhibition of 1851,

covered an area of 1.848 feet by 408 feet in prefabricated units of glass set in iron frames.

The Paris Exhibition of 1889 included both the widest span and the greatest height

achieved so far with the Halle Des Machines, spanning 362 feet, and the Eiffel Tower

1,000 feet high. However, these achievements were mocked by the artistic elite of Paris

as expensive and ugly follies. Iron, despite its structural advantages, had little aesthetic

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phístatus. The use of an exposed iron structure in the more traditional styles of architecture

55. What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. Advances in iron processing in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries

B. The effects of the Industrial Revolution on traditional architectural styles

C. Advantages of stone and timber over steel as a building material

D. The evolution of the use of iron in architecture during the 1800's

A. quickly started B. gradually opened

C. dramatically changed D. carefully examined

to the early eighteenth century because _______.

A. all available iron was needed for other purposes

B. limited mining capability made iron too expensive

C. iron was considered too valuable for use in public buildings

D. the use of charcoal for refining ore produced poor quality iron

58. Iron replaced stone and timber in the building of bridges because iron was considered

______.

A. more beautiful B. new and modern

C. much stronger D. easier to transport

Environment contains water, soil, air, which are necessary to all of the livings. Therefore,

we are trying to find solutions to environmental pollution. People should stop cutting

trees for timber instead of planting trees and forests. Besides, people should reduce using

cars, motorbikes that cause noise and air pollution. The next measure is that we should

prevent farmers from using fertilizers and pesticides that damage soil. In addition, people

Cutting the Apron Strings

There is substantial evidence that students going off to college have changed over the

years. For one thing, studies show that they are emotionally closer to their parents and

their parents to them. One thing that means is that they depend on each other more for

happiness. It puts a burden on children for parents to use their children as vehicles for

their own happiness — although today's young people seem complicit in this

arrangement, perhaps because they've known no other way — even if it creates anxiety in

the children. That's one reason parents like to be involved in their children's college

experiences, and colleges have had to devise novel ways of getting parents off campus

when they transport their kids to school.

There's also evidence that students today seem to be choosing schools with reference to

proximity to home. The closer a student is to home, the easier it is to bring the laundry

home and to land in your old bed with tea and sympathy when you have the sniffles. And

the easier it is for parents to visit you at university whenever the mood strikes. The

amount of visiting parents do is far more than in generations past.

But in a real sense, students don't really leave their parents behind. Their parents go to

college right along with them — in their front pockets. That is, the parents are a speed

dial away by cellphone. And the evidence is clear that students call parents and parents

call students at an alarmingly frequent rate. This, of course, significantly reduces

independence. A student doesn't get the chance to solve minor problems on his own — he

just calls Mom or Dad. A student has initial problems getting along with a roommate? A

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíroommate doesn't do laundry as often as the other roommate wishes (I'm talking about

actual incidents, not hypothetical ones? A student gets a C on her first paper? Instead of

absorbing the negative information and figuring out how to resolve the problem or how to

do better, the call gets made to home, where Mom or Dad solves the problem, often by

calling the school administration. This kind of behavior is, sadly, commonplace today and

is a mark of the lack of coping skills among students because all the lumps and bumps

have been taken out of life for them until now.

In addition to being tethered to parents, incoming freshmen are now very heavily

connected (by cellphone) to classmates from high school, who are presumably at other

colleges. So there isn't the great impetus to mix and venture forth to meet new people, to

get out of one's comfort zone, to get drawn into new experiences, that has traditionally

marked the beginning of freshman year. The laws of physics still apply, and it is difficult

to be meeting new people and seeking novel experiences while you are talking to your

old pals.

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíRead the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to

indicate the correct word or phrase for each of the blanks.

One of the most famous concert halls in America is the Carnegie Hall in New York.

Initially, it was called simply the 'Music Hall', but three years after its opening it was

renamed in honour of Andrew Carnegie, the man who had provided much of the finance

for its building.

The Hall officially opened on May 5, 1891. Since then the Hall has played host to the

giants of classical music, as well as those of jazz, pop, folk and rock music, and has also

been used for political rallies, religious services and lectures.

One of the most dramatic lectures given in the Hall took place during its first year. This

began simply as a talk accompanied by slides of paintings of sunsets and landscapes,

which was what the audience had been expecting. However, as the lecture progressed, the

effects became more dramatic, with thunder, rolling clouds and steam billowing over the

audience's head while mechanical volcanoes exploded on stage - all to the amazement

and delight of the audience.

In 1927 the violinist Yehudi Menuhin made his appearance at the Carnegie Hall for the

first time - he was aged ten. In the afternoon before the performance, he was wandering

around the Hall instead of practising and was fascinated by an axe which he saw on the

wall. The axe was for use in a fire but the boy, not knowing this, asked a security guard

what it was for. The guard made an impression with his reply: "That's for chopping the

heads off soloists who don't play well enough. Quite a few have already been chopped

off." Yehudi went rushing back to practise.

On one occasion another famous violinist and a pianist were giving a performance

together when the violinist got lost in the music. He anxiously looked to the pianist for

help and whispered "Where are we?". He received the less than helpful reply "In the

Carnegie Hall".

Rock and roll made its first appearance at the Carnegie Hall in 1955 with Bill Haley and

his Comets. In 1964 the British invasion arrived when the Beatles played their first

concert here. On the day of the concert, cars came to a halt all over the city and the

crowds surrounding the building were enormous. Fortunately, in all the chaos nobody

was seriously injured and the Hall escaped with only minor damage.

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíIn the 1950s the building was threatened with demolition but a vigorous campaign to save

it was led by the conductor, Isaac Stern. In 1960 the Hall was purchased by the City of

New York and a few years later it was named a national landmark. Over the years the

most famous musicians, singers and entertainers in the world have appeared there - no

doubt they will continue to do so for many years to come.

guard?

In the future, students may have the choice of studying at home by using technology

such as computers or television, or of studying at traditional school. Which would

you prefer?

Example:

Technology is so increasingly advanced that going to school may be unnecessary for

future education. However, traditional schools still offer more indispensable benefits that

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíoutweigh technology. First and foremost, direct guide from lecturers can make learning

more easily and seriously. Teachers’ voice, eye contact and varied teaching methods make

the lesson more interesting to listen to. Students can also satisfied by chances of

exchanging more information and receiving greater care from teachers. Besides, with

teachers’ assignment and homework, more pressure is placed on study. Another

advantage to mention is the development of related skills when going to school. Schools

are mini societies that promote communication skill as well as relationship among

students through daily school- preparation and conversation. Last but not least, studying

at traditional school is much healthier. Instead of sitting at home for hours to learn,

learners have to travel and play at break. Their eyes will be less affected while their body

are more energetic. In sum, traditional schools provide better study environment than

technological study at home.

Ever since humans inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of

communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form

of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through

sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and

the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole

words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however,

cannot.

Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or

unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking.

A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.

Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots

read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and

picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people.

While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and

techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.

Rachel Carson was born in 1907 in Springsdale, Pennsylvania. She studied biology

at college and zoology at Johns Hopkins University, where she received her master’s

degree in 1933. In 1936, she was hired by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, where she

worked most of her life.

Carson’s first book, Under the Sea Wind, was published in 1941. It received excellent

reviews, but sales were poor until it was reissued in 1952. In that year she published The

Sea Around Us, which provided a fascinating look beneath the ocean’s surface,

emphasizing human history as well as geology and marine biology. Her imagery and

language had a poetic quality. Carson consulted no less than 1,000 printed sources. She

had voluminous correspondence and frequent discussions with experts in the field.

However, she always realized the limitations of her nontechnical readers.

In 1962, Carson published Silent Spring, a book that sparked considerable controversy. It

proved how much harm was done by the uncontrolled, reckless use of insecticides. She

detailed how they poison the food supply of animals, kill birds and fish, and contaminate

human food. At the time, spokesmen for the chemical industry mounted personal attacks

against Carson and issued propaganda to indicate that her findings were flawed.

However, her work was proved by a 1963 report of the President’s Science Advisory

Committee.

as well as forget the boredom and unhappiness. Another benefit exercising brings us is

VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phíthat we will feel more energetic to face and overcome our daily difficulties. Doing

exercise helps us reduce the possibilities of being ill, protects us from some fatal diseases

as heart disease, cancers and diabetes. Regular exercisers are believed to have healthier,

happier and longer lives. The other good thing is that doing exercise helps us feel more

self-confident. We know exactly what we can do or what abilities, talents we have. We

will think positively, do confidently, and lead an optimistic life if we practice exercising

regularly. Controlling our weight effectively is another value. Perspiration occurs when

we exercise, which helps our bodies get rid of bad things inside. Fats are burnt during our

practicing exercise, which helps us to keep fit. To sum up, doing exercise enables people

to have good body-buildings, keep fit and brings exercisers many benefits. Sparing time

doing exercise will ensure us a longer, healthier and happier life.
