Bài 5: Đọc bài văn sau và chọn đáp án đúng.
In the Mekong Delta, Long Dinh village of Tien Giang province is famous for its
traditional craft of weaving flowered mats. The mat’s high quality makes them popular
domestically, and they are also exported to markets worldwide including Korea, Japan
and America.
In spite of its well-established reputation for this traditional craft, mat weaving only
started here some 50 years ago. It was first introduced by immigrants from Kim Son, a
famous mat weaving village in the northern province of Ninh Binh. However, the
technique of weaving sedge mats in Long Dinh, as compared with other places in the
South, is somewhat different. Long Dinh branded mats are thicker and have more
attractive colours and patterns.
Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice. Long Dinh mat production mainly
occurs during the dry season, from January to April. Weavers have to work their hardest
in May and June, otherwise, when the rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off
finishing their products till the next dry season. No matter how much work it requires,
Long Dinh mat producers stick with this occupation, as it brings a higher income than
growing rice.
This trade provides employment for thousands of local labourers. At present, nearly
1,000 households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats. To better meet market
demands, Long Dinh mat weavers have created more products in addition to the
23
traditional sedge mats. Particularly, they are producing a new type of mat made from
the dried stalks of water hyacinth, a common material in the Mekong Delta.
Thanks to the planning and further investment, the mat weaving occupation has
indeed brought in more income for local residents. Their living standards have
improved considerably, resulting in better conditions for the whole village.
1. In order to meet market demands, artisans in Long Dinh ______________.
A. try to produce various types of products
B. stop producing the traditional sedge mats
C. produce new Products from rare material
D. for thousands of local labourers
2. We can infer from the sentence “Weaving sedge mats is similar to growing rice” that
____________.
A. both bring similar income
B. both occur at the same time
C. both depend on weather conditions
D. both occur on the same land
3. Despite difficulties, people in Long Dinh try to follow the craft because ____________.
A. they can make the techniques of weaving different
B. they can earn more money than growing rice
C. they can have jobs in the rainy months
D. they can go to Korea, Japan and America
4. We can infer from the passage that ______________.
A. the craft contributes much to the village economy
B. most of the households in Long Dinh village live on weaving mats
24
C. the new technique makes labourers work in the dry season

D. Long Dinh mat production is only well-known in foreign markets
5. All of the following are true about the craft in Long Dinh EXCEPT that _____________.
A. the techniques are a little bit different from those in other regions
B. the mats have more attractive colours and designs
C. it has the origin from Kim Son, Ninh Binh
D. it has had the reputation for more than 50 years

I. Introduction
Hello, my name is Huong and I am currently a student in class 9B at ABC Secondary

School. As you all know, Vietnam is very famous for its landscapes, cuisines, especially
local traditional crafts. And today, I am extremely happy to talk to you about the local
traditional crafts in Vietnam, its benefits and challenges.
II. Body
- On one hand, traditional crafts have many benefits, such as providing

employment, preserving cultural heritage, and helping develop tourism.
+ Firstly, traditional crafts provide many people, especially young ones in rural areas
with job opportunities. Now, besides farming, they can live on handicraft making or
other follow-up services.
+ Secondly, traditional crafts help preserve cultural heritage which is shown through
sophisticated handicrafts by skillful artisans.
+ In addition, more and more tourists like visiting craft villages and buying handicrafts
as souvenirs. Therefore, local tourism will develop quickly.
- On the other hand, Vietnamese craftsmen have faced some challenges.

+ As tourism develops, handicrafts are at risk of losing authenticity. They may be made
for the commercial demands of tourists rather than for the real purpose of art.
+ Waste treatment and pollution are other issues in craft villages because waste is often
directly released into the local environment without proper treatment.
+ And there’s a lot of competition from other countries like China or India, which can
limit the attraction to both domestic and foreign tourists.
III. Conclusion
34
Local traditional crafts are becoming essential part in Vietnam’s culture. Thanks to
them, more and more tourists come to Vietnam. In spite of having many benefits, local
traditional crafts are facing a lot of challenges which need solutions from government,
local authorities and the residents.

I. Introduction
Hello, my name is Huong and I am currently a student in class 9B at ABC

Secondary School. Have anyone of you ever visited Da Nang? Well, there are many
interesting features about this city that I want to share with you today.
II. Body
- Da Nang is a lovely city in Central Viet Nam.
68
- Founded in 1889, the city has a population of more than 1.3 million people. Its
population is a lot smaller than Ha Noi or Ho Chi Minh City, but it’s by far the
most popular tourist destination in Viet Nam.
- Da Nang has a lot of tranquil beaches and scenic mountains, so the weather here
is usually cool and fresh. That’s the reason why many people choose this city as
the destination for their summer vacation. Moreover, Da Nang cuisine is different
from other regions in Viet Nam and each dish has the special and unique taste.
The city’s specialties such as Quang noodle, sliced pork rolled with rice paper,
fish cake noodle soup, and sizzling cake really impress tourists.
- Besides, the city is famous for a variety of fabulous attractions, such as Linh Ung
Pagoda, Ba Na Hills, Fantasy Park, Dragon Bridge, Marble Mountains, Da Nang
Cathedral and Cham Museum. Especially, tourists visiting the city between April
and June may have a chance to watch fascinating fireworks in the annual Da
Nang International Fireworks Festival.
- But the best thing about Da Nang is that unlike other big cities, the city is very
clean and peaceful – it is considered one of the cleanest cities in the world.
III. Conclusion
Personally, I find Da Nang very interesting and attractive. Therefore, explore

the city if possible, it’s worth your time.

You can do a few things to make homework less (1)_____________.

First, be sure you understand the assignment. Write it (2) in your
notebook or day planner if you need to, and don’t be afraid to ask questions about
what is expected. It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after

help. The first place to turn for help is your teacher. But what if you don't feel
comfortable with your teacher? If you are in a big enough school, there may be other
teachers who teach the same subject. Speak to other teachers directly and you may
be in luck. Sometimes it just helps to have someone (9) something

- Yesterday, one of my classmates forced me to do his homework for him. I said no

as I thought it wasn't fair. But he said if I didn't do it, he would make my life
difficult. I’m a bit worried and confused at that time.
- After that, I met my teacher to ask her for help. She then talked to that friend and
demanded him to do his homework by himself. She also punished him for not
being fair and serious in study. Thanks to my teacher, I could solve this situation
more easily.
- Actually, I think the most important factor a person need to get along well with
others is being sociable, honest and kind to them. If so, they will treat us in the
same way as we behave.
III. Conclusion
Everyone has problems in life. Therefore, we need to keep calm to find the

Bài 5: Đọc đoạn văn sau và trả lời câu hỏi.
Last month, we went to Doi Tam, a village famous for its drum making
techniques, in Ha Nam Province. The craft was first introduced to the village in the
8th or 9th century. Today there are more than six hundred drum makers living in
Doi Tam village.
I was amazed to see big drums in front of every house in the village. People say
that it takes four workers three days to make a drum with a diameter of 1.5 metres.
To make a drum, the craftsmen have to follow an eight stage process. Stretching the
drumhead is the most challenging stage since they have to carefully assess the
sound it makes. The other steps do not require such high skills .Nowadays, Doi Tam
drums are not only famous in Viet Nam but are also sold to other countries such as
Laos, Cambodia, Japan, and the USA.
1. When was the craft first introducedto the village?

2. How many stages do the craftsmen have to followto make a drum?

I live in a small village called Henfield. There are about 500 people here. The
village is quiet and life here is slow and easy. You never have to queue in shops or
banks. People never throw their rubbish in the streets, so the village is always clean.
The air is also very clean because there’s not much heavy traffic. It’s much more
friendly here than in a city. Everyone knows everyone and if someone has a
problem, there are always people who can help. However, there are some things I
114
don’t like about Henfield. One thing is that there’s not much to do in the evening. We
haven’t got any cinemas or theatres. Another problem is that people always talk
about each other and everyone knows what everyone is doing. But I still prefer
village life to life in a big city.

Although no one knows for certain who the original Saint Valentine was, once a
year, on February 14, there is a day in his honor. Some historians believe that the
original Saint Valentine was a priest who lived in the city of Rome about 300 years
after the birth of Christ. The emperor of Rome was not a Christian and refused to
allow people to be married in a Christian ceremony. Saint Valentine didn’t obey the
emperor and performed many Christian marriages, in spite of the emperor’s order.
When the Romans found out, they sent Saint Valentine to prison and later killed him.
While his romantic efforts to help many Christians in love cost him his life, he was
honored in his own days. But his story has been mostly forgotten after people have
come to celebrate Valentine’s Day as a special time for sweethearts. On Valentine’s

D. KỸ NĂNG NÓI
TOPIC: Talk about children's pastimes in the past
(Nó i về cá c hoạ t độ ng giả i trí củ a trẻ em trong quá khứ )
Outline:
I. Introduction
- How is life of children in the past? Do they have much free time?
- The traditional games children in the past often played.
- Your comments on children’s pastime in the past
III. Conclusion
Detailed outline
I. Introduction

Secondary School. Nowadays, thanks to the development of society, children have
numerous kinds of entertainment, which is really different from they were in the
past. Therefore, today I would like to tell you children’s pastime in the past.
II. Body
- As you know, life in the past wasn’t easy at all. Children used to lack everything,
from clothes to food. They also had no money to play a wide variety of modern
151
games like today. Therefore, what they played in their free time was some
traditional games.
- Well, kids in my days did a lot of outdoor physical activities like flying kites,
playing football or swimming in the river. We used nature as our playground,
and often went bare-footed. We also met and talked face to face, not on a screen
like today.
- Life has changed so much, therefore, I don’t have any chances to have a try on
these activities. They are all interesting, and I think children at that time seems
to have a more healthy lifestyle than today.
III. Conclusion
Children must have had a really interesting pastime in the past. Hence, I wish I
could go back to the previous days to enjoy that wonderful time.

The Complex of Hue Monuments is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is located
in the city of Hue in central Vietnam. Hue was founded as the Viet Nam capital city
by Gia Long, the first king of the Nguyen Dynasty in 1802. It held this position for
thirteen Nguyen kings until 1945.
The massive complex features hundreds of monuments and mins, such as the
Forbidden Purple City, once the residence of the royal family and badly damaged
during the Vietnam War. the Imperial City, royal tombs, the flag tower, pagodas,
temples, a library and museum.
Hue, located on the banks of the Huong River, (also known as the Perfume River)
is about a hundred kilometres north of Da Nang. Among the most impressive
monuments in this former grand imperial capital are the Ngo Mon Gate of the
Imperial City which once was exclusively used by the royal family and their servants
and soldiers, the tomb of Emperor Minh Mang as well as the tomb of Emperor Tu
DuC. In fact, many of the monuments surrounding the royal buildings were
constructed in the early 19th century and were modeled after Beijing’s Forbidden
City. The wall that surroundings the citadel is six metres high and two and a half
kilometres long.
The historical complex is known not only for its rich architecture but also for its
beautiful landscape setting. Overall, the site is quite spectacular. Avoid Hue between
174
October and December as it gets most of its rain from the northeast monsoon during

Perfume Pagoda is a religious site as well as being a great sight-seeing spot in
Viet Nam. It is situated in Huong Son Commune, My Duc District, Ha Noi. It is a vast
complex of Buddhist temples and shrines, including Den Trinh (Presentation Shrine)
and Thien Tru (Heaven Kitchen) Pagoda, in the limestone Huong Tich mountains.
The centre of this complex is the Perfume Temple, also called Chua Trong (Inner
Temple), located in Huong Tich Cavern. It is thought that the first temple was built
on the current site of Thien Tru in the 15th century during the reign of Le Thanh
175
Tong. Over the years some of its structures which were in ruins have been restored
or replaced.
Many Vietnamese works of literature, both old and modern, have made Perfume
Pagoda their focus. It has also provided backdrops for many famous paintings. Its
beauty has been used as a theme of many famous songs and a topic of lyric poetry.
Nowadays during its festival (from the middle of January to the middle of March on
the lunar calendar), Perfume Pagoda attracts large numbers of pilgrims from all
over Viet Nam.

D. KỸ NĂNG NÓI
TOPIC: Talk about man-made wonders of Viet Nam and the ways to
protect them
(Nó i về cá c kỳ quan nhâ n tạ o củ a Việt Nam và cá ch bả o vệ chú ng)
Outline:
I. Introduction
- Man-made wonders of Viet Nam
- The things that have caused damage to the man-made wonders.
- The ways to protect man-made wonder of Vietnam
III. Conclusion
Detailed outline
I. Introduction

Secondary School. Vietnam is famous for its magnificent landscapes, especially the
man-made wonders which attract numerous tourists both inside and outside the
border. However, the man-made wonders are being damaged by several factors,
which requires urgent conservation.
185
186
II. Body
- You know, Viet Nam has a great variety of man-made wonders ranging from
prehistoric monuments, historical cities and towns, fortifications, Buddhist
shrines, Hindu temples, to tunnels and tombs.
- Among them, I am especially impressed by the Complex of Hue Monuments, Hoi
An Ancient Town, Thang Long Imperial Citadel, and My Son Sanctuary.
- However, it’s reported that many of our man-made wonders have been
damaged. Many roads, hotels, factories, ect., have been built around our
man-made wonders. This leads to negative changes in local landscapes.
Hordes of tourists visit these wonders every day, causing overcrowding,
ecological disaster and environmental issues. Many valuable things have
been stolen from the wonders. Local governments don’t have long-term
measures to protect them from severe weather conditions.
- I suggest that the government should limit the number of tourists visiting them
every day. I’d like to suggest raising money to restore and preserve them.
Moreover, I think it would be a good idea to put valuable things in high-security
places.
III. Conclusion
Due to getting more and more well-known and attracting numerous tourists, it is
essential that we have possible conservation of man-made wonders to preserve and
promote the beauty of our country.

Seventy percent of people in Viet Nam live in rural areas. Most of these people (1)

and fishing. For many of these farmers and fishermen, animal and plant waste is still a
problem.

system, a farmer must move animal waste into a pipe with water. These pipes bring the
waste to a tank (7) in the ground. This tank is called a bio-digester. Air cannot enter

Ha Noi had its first tramways in 1990. The tram system was a major means of
transport in the city for nine decades and thus the image of the tram and its clanging
sounds have gone deep into the hearts and minds of Hanoians. Since it was convenient and
cheap to get around the city and to the suburban areas by tram, the system was very
popular. However, due to the population boom and the need for a wider road system, the
last rail track was removed.
Now, after more than 20 years, the population of Ha Noi has risen from about two
million people to more than six million people; therefore, the number of vehicles on the
roads has increased dramatically. To meet the increasing travel demands, Ha Noi is
launching its first skytrain system, connecting Cat Linh and Ha Dong. The system is
expected to begin operations by 2016, with initial four -compartment skytrains.
208
Furthermore, a new rail system project including around eight kilometres of skytrain rail
and four kilometres of subway rail, connecting Ha Noi Central Station and Nhon, has also
been under construction and is expected to be completed in a few years.

TOPIC: Talk about changes in transport and opinions about these changes
(Nói về những thay đổi trong giao thông và quan điểm về sự thay đổi đó)
Outline:
I. Introduction
- The transport in the past
- The transport now
- Opinions about the changes in transport
III. Conclusion
Detailed outline
I. Introduction
Hello, my name is Huong and I am currently a student in class 9B at ABC Secondary

School. As you know, people’s standard of living is becoming higher and higher, therefore,
there are so many changes compared to the past, especially in transport.
II. Body
- In the past, the road system was simple back then. Most people rode bicycles and there
were few motorbikes on the road. In addition, the tram system was a very popular
means of transport in the city at that time.
219
- Now, the city has changed dramatically. Fly-overs, elevated walkways, and high-rise
buildings are mushrooming. In addition, there has been a sharp increase in the number
of vehicles there. Most of them are motorbikes and cars. The tram system has
completely disappeared, and I can only see a few bikes in the street. Unsurprisingly, the
roads are much busier than in the past and traffic jams often occur, particularly at rush
hour. To solve this problem, two skytrain systems have been built in the city.
- Honestly, I am totally approval and proud of the changes in transport. Thanks to those
changes, our city and country is much more modern and developing.
III. Conclusion
Transport is dramatically changing in a positive way. In spite of having some

drawbacks, I believe that it still brings numerous advantages to the citizens.

Street Food Shoulder Poles on Saigon streets

Street food shoulder pole is familiar with Saigon people throughout many years.
Nowadays it has become a special thing that makes travelers curious. In small areas of
District 1 and District 3, we could count more than 100 vendors who earned money using
shoulder poles. A shoulder pole, also called a carrying pole, is a yoke of wood or bamboo,
used by people to carry a load. The vendors put their goods in two baskets from each end of
the yoke.
In the downtown, we can meet young women with their shoulder poles. The baskets are
covered with plastic wrap carefully to protect the foods from the street dust. In a tight
space of one basket, she could mix the ingredients and bake the cake on a small charcoal
which was defended by carton. The ready cakes were put in other basket.
In the morning or evening, on rainy or sunny day, Saigon streets are marked by
shoulder poles of people from different regions of the country, which has become a
unique part of Saigon. It has been said that it isn’t hard to live in Saigon if you work hard.
With the carrying pole on shoulders, the vendor has turned it into a “store”. The reason is

continue their journey through Saigon streets under the sun and the rain, selling cheap
things or street foods to earn money and feed their children.

Bài 10: Đọc bài sau và trả lời câu hỏi.
HANOI, A CAPITAL OF TRADITIONAL CRAFTS
Hanoi has long been home to hundreds of craft villages. Over the years, many of the
crafts have developed, while some have disappeared altogether.
The heart and soul of Hanoi‟s vibran told crafts are its crafts men and women. One
such couple are Nguyen Van Hoa and his wife Dang Huong Lan of Ba Dinh District‟s
Hang Than Street. They are among the few artisans still making elaborate cardboard
masks in order to preserve the traditionalculture.
Although the work itself requires many steps, the materials required are simple:
newspapers, glue, paint and paintbrushes. The first step entails tearing the newspapers
to pieces and thenusing glue to combine them into a mold. The masks are painted one
color at a time and then laid out to dry. Cardboard mask making is therefore dependent
on dry weather and the couple can only make about 2,000 masks per festival. These are
priced from VND25.000 to VND35,000 a piece, bringing in VND50-60 million - a sum is
not commensurate with the efforts that go into making these elaborate crafts.
Making swans out of cotton is also a traditional craft. Only artisan Vu Thi Thanh
Tam of 79 Hang Luoc Street in the capital makes these swans. The swan frames are
made of notebook paper and are stuffed with cotton, then a skillful artisan puts each
layer of cotton on the swanframes and uses rice water to smooth them. Theswanneck is
made of steelwire and is covered by cotton.The finished product is placed in a rattan
basket with cotton around and glass-beads and silk flowers are added for color.
The continuity of traditional crafts adds to the capital‟s attractiveness in the eyes of
citizens and international visitors.
257
1. Who plays role as the heart and soul of Hanoi‟scrafts?
2. Which traditional craft do Mr. Hoa and his wifepreserve?
3. How many materials are there to make that craft? What arethey?
4. Which kind of weather does the craft making process dependon?
5. What are the swan frames madeof?
6. What does the artisan use to smooth theframes?
7. What is added to color the finishedproduct?

Toronto is one of the world’s most multicultural cities. Almost half of its population
are immigrants. You’ll hear more than 140 languages and dialects spoken on the streets
in this “City of Neighborhoods”. It’s the most populous city in Canada (more than 5
million in the Greater Toronto Area) and the province of Ontario’s economic engine.
Toronto’s motto is“DiversityOur Strength”. Toronto prides itself on its wide range of
cultures, languages, food andarts.
Visit Toronto, and one of the first things you’ll notice is that the city’s appeal lies in
its citizens’ friendliness: ask for directions, and you’ll be helped. Along with its highly
artistic culture and fascinating museums that proudly display the country’s history, it’s
clear that a Toronto trip has something foreveryone.
Although Toronto’s climate is partially moderated by its Great Lakes location, it is
268
more extreme than Bordeaux’s and Christchurch’s, with somewhat hotter summers
and considerably colder winters. Summertime in Toronto is festival time. Just about
every weekend, and some weekdays, you’ll find one happening. If crowds aren’t your

LIFE IN THE PAST VS LIFE IN THE PRESENT
Overthelastcentury,therehavebeenmanysignificantchangesinthewaywelive.Obvious
ly, it is difficult to compare the life of ancient people and the life of the people living in
the twenty-first century because so many changes have occurred. Even the changes that
have occurred over the last ten years areamazing.
To start with, in the past people had to work harder as they did not have tools and
machines to make their work easier. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is
done by computers and other powerful machines. In the past living conditions were not
as comfortable as they are now. Besides, many people could not afford household
appliances like a fridge or a vacuum cleaner because those used to be luxurious goods.
Another difference between living now and in the past is the fact that nowadays
education is accessible to everyone. In the past men were mainly the only ones educated
and women were not allowed into public or private schools. Besides, nowadays it is
much easier to find the educational materials and the information you need–thanks to
the Internet. We are able to speak to a friend who is on the other corner of the world
because we are connected 24/7. Nevertheless, people had better relationships with the
neighbors in years goneby.
All things considered, it is an obvious conclusion that life has changed significantly
duringthe course of history. In some ways, it is definitely easier to live in the present. On
the other hand, however, life now is much faster and stressful than it used to be in the
past. The standard of living has definitely improved but it can be discussed whether the
quality of our lives is also better.
A. Xác định những câu sau là đúng (T) hay sai (F).
1. Life nowadays is the same as life of ourancestors.
2. Technology has made our liveseasier.
3. In the past, household appliances were veryexpensive.
4. Public schools allowed females and males to be educated in the sameschools.
5. We can use the internet to communicate with people around theworld.
B. Trả lời các câu hỏi sau.

1. Is life today faster or slower than life in thepast?
294
2. What has happened to the standard ofliving?
3. What makes it easy to accessinformation?
4. Who or what does some difficult jobs forus?

Located in Duy Xuyen district, Quang Nam province, about 69km from Da Nang City
and 20km from Tra Kieu ancient capital, My Son Sanctuary is the complex of numerous
Champa tower-temples in a valley roughly two kilometerswide, surrounded by two
mountain ranges. This used to be a site of religious ceremony for kings of the ruling
303
dynasties of Champa, as well as a burial place for Cham royalty and nationalheroes.
My Son Sanctuary is regarded as one of the main religious centers of Hinduism in

Southeast Asia and is the foremost heritage site of this nature in Vietnam. Notably,
among 225 Cham vestiges that are founded in Vietnam, My Son possesses 71
monuments and 32 epitaphs, the content of which is still being studied. My Son
Sanctuary is often compared with other historical temple complexes in Southeast Asia,
such as Borobudur of Java in Indonesia, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, Bagan of Myanmar or
Ayutthaya in Thailand.
My Son Sanctuary was honored as one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites at the
23rd session of the World Heritage Committee in 1999. Based on architectural remains,
My Son perhaps began construction in 4th century. It is perhaps the longest inhabited
archaeological site in Indochina. Although time and wars have turned numerous tower-
temples into ruins, sculptural artifacts and architectural remains still reflected golden
age of Cham fine arts history. These masterpieces have marked flourishing periods of
Champa culture and architecture as well as in SoutheastAsia.
1. My Son Sanctuary dates from the 4thcentury.
2. My Son Sanctuary is located in a valley surrounded by mountains.
3. It can beseenthat MySonSanctuaryisacentreofcultureandpoliticsofChampa Kingdom

From the 20th to the 21st century, there have been significant changes all over the
world. Substantial differences are evident between the way we live today, and the way
we lived a century ago. Vietnam is no exception although there are some facets of life
that still resemble the way of life of the twentiethcentury.
Living in Vietnam today differs greatly from the lifestyle of 100 years ago. People in
the past mainly worked in agriculture whereas today there are significantly less people
working in this sector of the economy. These days, by comparison, people are more
likely to be employed in manufacturing and tourism than in the rice fields. Moreover,
Vietnam, which was traditionally agrarian, is transforming into an entirely different
country. While agriculture is still an important component of the Vietnamese economy,
other enterprises area ccounting for an increasing amount of economic activity.
313
However, along with the differences, similarities also exist. The people of Vietnam
have retained many of the characteristics of their forefathers. The Vietnamese people are
as friendly today as they were in the past. This is bestexemplified in the way they
welcome foreigners totheir unique country. Moreover, the resilience and determination
of the people of Vietnam has not changed. The Vietnamese work collectively and happily
towards the development of their country.

British teenagers sit up to 70 exams and tests before they reach their GCSEs
(The General Certificate of Secondary Education). But there are ways to ease the
stress at exam time.
What a student eats and drinks in the run-up to exams can influence how
clearly they think and how happy they feel. A balanced diet with lots of fruit and
vegetables, fish and complex carbohydrates will help them concentrate and think
clearly. Too much high-fat, high-sugar and high-caffeine food and drink can make
studying harder.
Sleeping well and for long enough to feel rested, around six to eight hours for
most people, will help thinking and concentration. Students should allow half an
hour or so to wind down between studying, watching TV or using a computer and
going to bed to help them get a good night’s sleep. Regular exercise also helps them
sleep better. Cramming all night before an exam is usually a bad idea.
Parents should be flexible around exam time. When a child is revising all day,
don’t worry about household jobs that are left undone or untidy bedrooms. If they’re
a bit moody they should stay calm. They can help a child to revise by making sure
they have somewhere comfortable to study.
329
Students should remind themselves that feeling nervous is normal.

Nervousness is a typical reaction to exams. All students will feel it. The key is to put
these nerves to positive use. Being reminded of what they do know and the time they
have put into study can help them feel confident that they can reach their potential.
1. The underlined word “Cramming” in the passage probably means ____ .
A. Sleeping for a long time
B. Having a nightmare
C. Reading things aloud
D. Memorising a lot of things
330
2. A comfortable place is good for students to ______.
A. Have a sound sleep B. Revise more effectively
C. Feel positive about learning D. Stop worrying about exams
3. Before exams, it is not unusual to______.
A. Eat well B. Stay calm C. Feel nervous D. Reacttypically
4. Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A. It is impossible for teenagers to ease their stress before exams.
B. Eating and drinking properly can help students study better.
C. Regular exercise and relaxation are necessary for a good sleep.
D. Parents play an important role in raising their children’s exam results.
5. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to be well-prepared for exams
B. A balanced diet for examinees
C. What teenagers should do to feel rested
D. Nervousness: good reaction to exams

There is growing evidence that urbanization has a sharp impact on climate,

causing changes that can wreak havoc on precipitation patterns that supply the
precious resource of water. The heavy amounts of heat and pollution rising from
cities both delay and stimulate the fall of precipitation, depriving some areas of rain
while drenching others.
Cities are on average one to ten degrees warmer than the surrounding
undeveloped areas. Cities also produce large amounts of pollutants called aerosols,
gaseous suspensions of dust particles or byproducts from the burning of fossil fuels.
Both heat and pollutants change the dynamics of clouds. When hoisted up in the sky,
the microscopic particles act as multiple surfaces on which the moisture in clouds
337
can condense as tiny droplets. This can prevent or delay the formation of larger
raindrops that fall more easily from the sky, or it can cause the rain to fall in another
location.
In California, pollution blows eastward and causes a precipitation shortage of

around one trillion gallons a year across the Sierra Nevada mountain range. By
contrast, in very humid cities, such as Houston, heat and pollutants seem to
invigorate summer storm activity by allowing clouds to build higher and fuller
before releasing torrential rains.
1. The fact that urbanization plays a part in climate change can be ____.
A. Ignored B. proved C. omitted D. imagined
2. One of the changes in climate by urbanisation is _____
A. More pollutants B. Undeveloped areas
C. A decrease in pollution D. Different precipitation patterns
3. In cities, the rain patterns have been altered because of _____.
A. Heat and pollutants B. Microscopic particles
C. Moisture in clouds D. Larger raindrops
4. What does the phrase “wreak havoc on” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Do something useful for B. Have a positive impact on
C. Cause damage to D. Make use of
5. Why is Houston mentioned in the passage?
A. To give an example of an area affected by heavy rain
B. To make a contrast with California in pollution
C. Because of Houston’s shortage of precipitation
D. Because Houston allows clouds to build higher and fuller

Example: making up 🡪 making it up
You’ll never guess what happened to me today. And I promise I’m not making
up! I was in a shop at lunchtime. There was a tall woman in the shop. She was trying
on hats. She picked up a blue one and put on. I remember thinking it looked good on
her. I had tried on some gloves and was just taking off. The woman came over,
340
picked up some gloves and put on too. Then she started looking at some bags. She
dropped one on the floor by my feet. I bent down to pick up and when I turned
round she was just going out. And she was still wearing the clothes! I ran out to stop
her taking away, but then I felt someone’s hand on my shoulder. It was the shop
owner. I was still holding the bag! And he started telling me off while the woman got
away!

Today, walking around Ha Noi or Ho Chi Minh City, you can easily see the image
of a Vietnamese kid eating KFC-styled chicken, drinking Coca Cola and watching
Disney Channel. On Vietnamese channels premiere a lot of Korean, Chinese,
American films. English songs appear in iPods or MP3 players of many teenagers. All
shows the tremendous effects of globalization on Vietnamese life, especially
Vietnamese culture.
Globalization does bring convenience and comfort to Vietnamese people. Now

we can enjoy goods and services with high quality and competitive prices as many
foreign companies join our market. Advances in communication help eradicate
geographic borders among countries and therefore connect our world. Especially,
globalization shortens the long-standing distance among different cultures. For
342
example, right here in Viet Nam, we can watch latest movies made in Hollywood; we
can read famous books written by authors from US, UK, EU, Japan, China… We can
see the appearance of restaurants serving Thai, Italian, Japanese, American, Latin
American food in big cities. Moreover, globalization is fast and useful ways to
present Vietnamese culture to the whole world.
However, that does not mean globalization does no harm to the culture of our
country. One of the most concerning problems caused by globalization is the
dominance of foreign culture on Vietnamese life. Simply put, people lose their
traditional values and begin to identify with the culture of dominant nations.
Perhaps, the most apparent and serious effect is language. Our Vietnamese language
is facing “severe competition” from other languages, especially English.
