Read the following passage and choose A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct word or phrase that
best fits each of the following blanks.
Parents whose children show a special interest in a particular sport have a difficult decision to
(31)
about their children’s career. Should they allow their children to train to become top sportsmen
and
women? For many children it (32) starting very young and school work, going out with
friends and other interests have to take second place. It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why
he or she has to train for five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are
playing.
Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is (33) from the
government for the very best young sportsmen and women. If this help cannot be given, it means that
it is the parents that have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development- and
sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment etc. can all be very expensive.
Many parents are understandably concerned that it is dangerous to start serious training in a
sport (34) an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before
they are properly developed. Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by starting young
that you can reach the top as a successful sports person. What is clear is that very (35) people
reach the top and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of
training.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Paul Watson is an environmental activist. He is a man who believes that he must do
something, not just talk about doing something. Paul believes in protecting endangered animals, and
he protects them in controversial ways. Some people think that Watson is a hero and admire him
very much. Other people think that he is a criminal.
On July 16th, 1979, Paul Watson and his crew were on his ship, which is called the Sea
Shepherd. Watson and the people who work on the Sea Shepherd were hunting on the Atlantic Ocean
near Portugal. However, they had a strange prey; instead of hunting for animals, their prey was a ship,
the Sierra. The Sea Shepherd found the Sierra, ran into it and sank it. As a result, the Sierra never
returned to the sea. The Sea Shepherd,on the other hand, returned to its home in Canada. Paul Watson
and his workers thought that they had been successful.
The Sierra had been a whaling ship, which had operated illegally. The captain and crew of the
Sierra did not obey any of the international laws that restrict whaling. Instead, they killed as many
whales as they could, quickly cut off the meat, and froze it. Later, they sold the whale meat in
countries where it is eaten. Paul Watson tried to persuade the international whaling commission to
stop the Sierra. However, the commission did very little, and Paul became impatient. He decided to
stop the Sierra and other whaling ships in any way that he could. He offered to pay $25,000 to anyone

who sank any illegal whaling ship, and he sank the Sierra. He acted because he believes that the
whales must be protected. Still, he acted without the approval of the government; therefore, his actions
were controversial.
Paul Watson is not the only environmental activist. Other men and women are also fighting to
protect the Earth. Like Watson, they do not always have the approval of their governments, and like
Watson, they have become impatient. Yet, because of their concern for the environment, they will act
to protect it. (Adapted from “Eco fighters” by Eric Schwartz, OMNI)

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to choose the
best answer for each of the question from 43- 50
The ocean bottom - a region nearly 2.5 times greater than the total land area of Earth - is a vast
frontier that even today is largely unexplored and uncharted. Until about a century ago, the deep-
ocean floor was completely inaccessible, hidden beneath waters averaging over 3,600 meters deep.
Totally without light and subjected to intense pressures hundreds of times greater than at the Earth’s
surface, the deep-ocean bottom is a hostile environment to humans, in some ways as forbidding and
remote as the void of outer space.
Although researchers have taken samples of deep-ocean rocks and sediments for over a
century, the first detailed global investigation of the ocean bottom did not actually start until 1968,
with the beginning of the National Science Foundation’s Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP). Using
techniques first developed for the offshore oil and gas industry, the DSDP’s drill ship, the Glomar
Challenger, was able to maintain a steady position on the ocean’s surface and drill in very deep waters,
extracting samples of sediments and rock from the ocean floor. The Glomar Challenger completed
96 voyages in a 15-year research program that ended in November 1983. During this time, the vessel
logged 600,000 kilometers and took almost 20,000 core samples of seabed sediments and rocks at 624
drilling sites around the world. The Glomar Challenger’s core samples have allowed geologists to

Ms Hoa THPT- Luyện thi tiếng anh 10,11,12 Page 4

 reconstruct what the planet looked like hundreds of millions of years ago and to calculate what it will
probably look like millions of years in the future. Today, largely on the strength of evidence gathered
during the Glomar Challenger’s voyages, nearly all earth scientists agree on the theories of plate
tectonics and continental drift that explain many of the geological processes that shape the Earth.
The cores of sediment drilled by the Glomar Challenger have also yielded information critical
to understanding the world’s past climates. Deep-ocean sediments provide a climatic record stretching
back hundreds of millions of years, because they are largely isolated from the mechanical erosion and
the intense chemical and biological activity that rapidly destroy much land-based evidence of past
climates. This record has already provided insights into the patterns and causes of past climatic
change - information that may be used to predict future climates.
Question 43. The author refers to the ocean bottom as a “frontier” because it
A. is not a popular area for scientific research B. contains a wide variety of life
forms
C. attracts courageous explorers D. is an unknown territory
Question 44. The word “inaccessible” is closest in meaning to .
A. unrecognizable B. unreachable C. unusable D. unsafe
Question 45. The author mentions “outer space” because .
A. the Earth’s climate millions of years ago was similar to conditions in outer space.
B. it is similar to the ocean floor in being alien to the human environment.
C. rock formations in outer space are similar to those found on the ocean floor.
D. techniques used by scientists to explore outer space were similar to those used in ocean
exploration.
Question 46. Which of the following is true of the Glomar Challenger?
A. It is a type of submarine. B. It is an ongoing project.
C. It has gone on over 100 voyages. D. It made its first DSDP voyage in 1968.
Question 47. The Deep Sea Drilling Project was significant because it was .
A. an attempt to find new sources of oil and gas
B. the first extensive exploration of the ocean bottom
C. composed of geologists from all over the world
D. funded entirely by the gas and oil industry
Question 48. The word “they” refers .
A. years B. climates C. sediments D. cores
Question 49. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as being a result of the
Deep Sea Drilling Project?
A. Geologists were able to determine the Earth’s appearance hundreds of millions of years ago.
B. Two geological theories became more widely accepted by scientists.
C. Information was revealed about the Earth’s past climatic changes.
D. Geologists observed forms of marine life never before seen.
Question 50. How long did the Glomar Challenger conduct its research?
A. 3 years B. 5 years C. 15 years D. 16 years
