E – READING
I. Read the passage and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Saving the Environment: One Home at a Time
Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes. It comes from
household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw away.
What can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment by
doing simple things.
First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again. Recycling can also
reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products. It takes very little effort. It is not hard to
place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin. Anyone can do it.
Second, we need to watch the amount of water used in the home. It can be conserved by taking short
showers instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine only
when fully loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.
Third, we need to reduce waste. We need to recycle whenever possible, but should also try to use
this waste effectively. For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for
plants. The average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount
by recycling and reusing.

II. Read the passage carefully, and then answer the questions below:
Easy English?
English is an important global language, but that doesn't mean it is easy to learn. Many experts have
tried to make English easier to learn, but they weren't always successful.
In 1930, Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850
words (and just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The
problem was that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple also messages, but
they couldn't understand the answers in ‘real’ English! It was impossible to explain a word if it
wasn't in the Basic English word list.
RE Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of
English was spelling, so he invented a language called Anglic. Anglic was similar to English, but
with much simpler spelling. 'Father' became ‘faadher’, ‘new’ became ‘nue' and ‘years' became
‘yeerz’. Unfortunately, for some students of English, Anglic never became popular.
Even easier is the language which ships' captains use: it is called Seaspeak Seaspeak uses a few
simple phrases for every possible situation. In Scaspeak, for example, you don't say, "I didn't
understand, can you repeat that?" it is just "Say again." No more grammar!
In the age of international communication through the Internet, a new form of English might appear.
A large number of the world's c-mails are in English and include examples of ‘NetLingo' like OIC
(Oh, I see) and TTYL (Talk to you later).
1. What is the role of English?
.................................................................................................................
2. When did Professor Ogden invent Basic English? How many words did it have?
………………………………………………………………………….
3. Why did Professor Re Zarchrisson invent Anglic? What happened to it?
………………………………………………………………………….
4. What is the feature of Seaspeak?
………………………………………………………………………….
5. What has appeared in the age of international communication through the Internet?
………………………………………………………………………….
III. Choose the word or phrase among A, B, C or D

The people of Kiribati arc afraid that one day their country in the not-too-distant future will
disappear from the surface of the earth. Several times this year, the Pacific island nation has been
flooded by a sudden high tide. These tides, which swept across the island and destroyed houses,
came when there was neither wind nor rain. This never happened before.
What is causing these mysterious high tides? The answer may be global warming. When fuels like
oil and coal are being burned, pollutants are released: these pollutants hold heat in the earth's
atmosphere. Warmer temperatures cause water to expand and also create more water by melting
glaciers and polar ice caps.
If the situation continues, scientists say that many countries will suffer, Bangladesh, for example,
might lose one-fifth of its land. The coral island nations of the Pacific like Kiribati and the Marshall
Islands, however, would face an even worse fate - they would be swallowed by the sea. The loss of
these coral islands would be everyone's loss. Coral formations are home to more species than any
other place on the earth.
T F
1. In Kiribati there were sudden high tides coming when there
was no wind or rain
2. High tides without wind or rain often happen in Kiribati.
3. Global warming is definitely the cause of those mysterious
high tides.
4. The loss of coral islands doesn’t affect prople on the earth.
5. Coral reefs play an essential role in marine life.
IV. Read the following passage and answer the questions
Telephones help people speak to one another when they are apart. For more than a hundred years,
nearly every telephone was a landline. A landline telephone is one that needs to be connected by a
wire to a network of other telephones. Because of the wires, people could not take those telephones
with them when they left their homes or offices.
What if you had to make a call while you were away from home? You had to find a pay phone. Pay
phones are landlines found in public places. Many pay phones are on the street. You can make a call
from inside a glass or metal space called a phone booth. Once you are inside the booth, you put coins
into a slot in the phone to make a call.
Telephones have seen a lot of progress. Today, many people carry cell phones. Cell phones do not
need to be connected with wires. They can be used almost anywhere and can fit in an adult's hand.
Many cell phones sold today are smart phones. A smart phone is a cell phone that has lots of
computer-style features. For example, people use smart phones to check e-mail and go on the
Internet. And all that can be done using something small enough to carry in a pocket!
1. What is a landline phone?
A. A telephone that can be carried around in your pocket and used anywhere.
B. A telephone that can be used in a public place.
C. A telephone that needs to be connected by a wire to a network of other telephone.
D. A telephone that can be used to check e-mail and go on the Internet.
2. The article describes an example of a landline. What is an example of a landline?
A. A pay phone C. a smart phone
B. A cell phone D. a mobile phone
3. Pay phones are probably not used as much today as they were in the past. What piece of
evidence supports this conclusion?
A. Many people today carry cell phones, which can be used almost anywhere.
B. Payphones are landlines that can be found in public places.
C. People couldn’t take landlines with them when they left their homes.
D. People put coins into a slot in the pay phone to make a call.
