If you do very little reading, or if you read only material that offers no challenge to your comprehension, your reading will be of very little use. Once we reach a certain age, or once our formal schooling is completed, many of us become so restricted in our choice of reading that we rarely read any new type of reading experience. We tend to read only books in our professional or business field, or only inspirational books, or only our favorite newspapers every morning, or only one magazine for which we have developed a preference. And the trouble starts here. You should neither read only for entertainment nor only for information but you should also read for intellectual growth, for mental stimulation, for enriching your background of knowledge, for wisdom, and for broader outlook and mature understanding. What kind of books should you read to continue your intellectual growth, to gain a background for opinion and for judgment? The answer is simple one: Read books in fields you have little or no acquaintance with, books that will open for you new horizons of learning, books that will help you explore new areas of knowledge and experience, books that will make the world and people more understandable to you. Sadly, more and more people today are giving up the printed word in favor of being entertained and informed by watching TV, a popular entertainment, device present at almost homes. More and more children are being subjected to TV programming, perhaps as a babysitter. More than two hours of TV time per day are now a part of children development, generating physiological and mental problems that are of growing concern among experts. Câu 36: Reading ________. A. completely stops when we finish our schooling B. is of little use C. is an endless process D. should be done a little Câu 37: According to the text, ________. A. we should only read for entertainment B. reading for intellectual growth is necessary C. new type of reading experience often interests most of us. D. we should not read for mental stimulation Câu 38: What kind of books is recommended? A. Books that will help you explore new areas of knowledge and experience B. Books that will open for you new horizons of learning C. Books in fields you have little or no acquaintance with D. All are correct Câu 39: We can learn from the text that today ________. A. people spend more time watching TV than reading books B. most babysitters prefer watching TV C. more and more people enjoy reading D. most children spend less than 2 hours a day watching TV Câu 40: The writer ________. A. advises us to read as little as possible. B. does not approve of reading process. C. appreciates reading. D. prefers watching TV to reading. -----------the end---------- ĐỀ KIỂM TRA LẦN 1 HỌC KỲ 2 – NH: 2008-2009 Mã đề: 209 Môn: TIẾNG ANH 12 Thời gian: 45 phút Học sinh dùng bút chì tô vào phiếu trả lời!

If you do very little reading, or if you read only material that offers no challenge to your comprehension, your reading will be of very little use. Once we reach a certain age, or once our formal schooling is completed, many of us become so restricted in our choice of .reading that we rarely read any new type of reading experience. We tend to read only books in our professional or business field, or only inspirational books, or only our favorite newspapers every morning, or only one magazine for which we have developed a preference. And the trouble starts here. You should neither read only for entertainment nor only for information but you should also read for intellectual growth, for mental stimulation, for enriching your background of knowledge, for wisdom, and for broader outlook and mature understanding. What kind of books should you read to continue your intellectual growth, to gain a background for opinion and for judgment? The answer is simple one: Read books in fields you have little or no acquaintance with, books that will open for you new horizons of learning, books that will help you explore new areas of knowledge and experience, books that will make the world and people more understandable to you. Sadly, more and more people today are giving up the printed word in favor of being entertained and informed by watching TV, a popular entertainment, device present at almost homes. More and more children are being subjected to TV programming, perhaps as a babysitter.

Read the passage and answer the questions.(2p) National Parks National park systems were started in the U.S. and Canada to protect places of great beauty, of scientific interest, or with unusual plants or animals. In 1872, the United States government passed a law naming Yell National Park, in Wyoming, as the first park to belong to all the people in the country. It is an area with geysers, hot springs, waterfalls and lakes. A few years later, Canada named Banff, in Alberta, its first national park. This park protects magnificent lakes, mountains, and forests. Both countries continued to add parks to their national park systems Lat some areas were named as national parks because they contained remains of Indian societies. Other parks protect areas that were important in the exploration and history of the two countries. Even though the North of Canada did not develop as fast as the South, more and more people realised it was important to save the large populations of wildlife before it was too late. Today national parks protect scenic and historical areas from Hawaii to Newfoundland. The parks cover millions of hectares in the mountains, the deserts, the forests, and along the coasts. Other countries have developed national park systems, too. People everywhere in the world can enjoy the natural beauty of their countries and know it is protected. And they know the parks will be there for the enjoyment of their children`s children.

He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to check that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before they see a dentist. Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpast at least twice a day – once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between out teeth after a meal. Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolate, sweets, biscuits, and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay 46.
