Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
The concept of being environmentally conscious, or “green”, has become more prevalent in twenty
first-century U.S culture. It has begun to affect the manufacturing of everything from non- toxic household
cleaning products to motor vehicles powered by alternative sources of energy. However, one way of being
“green” that is perhaps not as apparent to the viewer but of equal importance in being environmentally
conscious, is the construction of buildings that are considered “sustainable”. Sustainable buildings are
those that do not impose on the environment or rely on the over-utilization of energy or natural resources.
There are four main principles of sustainability, which includes consideration of the health and stability of
all living things and their environmental diversity, as well as the economic opportunities of humanity.
Sustainable architecture consists of environmentally conscious design techniques. In the past, the
demolition of an old building meant that all or most of the debris of the building would end up in a landfill
or a waste disposal site. Today, architects can plan and design a building that uses recycled materials, such
as wood, concrete, stone, or metal. These materials are salvaged from the demolition of an older building
and can be appropriately incorporated into a new construction. Architects and construction supervisors
may also choose to recycle more organic parts of demolished buildings, such as wooden doors, windows
and other glass, ceramics, paper, and textiles.
A problem that has often arisen has been with how a site crew-whether it is demolition or
construction crew determines and sorts what is “waste” and what is recyclable. Architects and
environmental scientists have to decide whether or not a material is appropriate for use in new
construction and how it will impact the environment. They must evaluate the materials from the
demolition and determine what those materials contain, and if they meet the standards set by the U.S,
government’s Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA). If the debris from the demolition contains
hazardous materials that are harmful to the environment or to the consumer, such as asbestos, then the
material is not salvageable. Use of the asbestos for insulation and as a form of fire retardation in buildings
- and fabrics was common in the nineteenth century. Asbestos was once used in shingles on the sides of
buildings, as well as in the insulation in the interior walls of homes or other construction. In new “green”
construction, insulation that once asbestos- based can be replaced with recycled denim or constructed with
cellulose-a fibrous material found in paper products. The same-assessment applies to wood or wallboard
painted with toxic lead-based paints. In addition, gas-flow regulators and meters on both water and gas
heating systems constructed prior to 1961 must be carefully evaluated to determine that they do not
contain dangerous substances such as mercury. Mercury can be harmful to humans and the environment if
it is spilled during the removal of these devices.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
Women often complain that the men in their lives are not romantic enough. But men sometimes have
trouble expressing their feelings, often resorting to cheesy Hallmark cards or pricey bejeweled baubles to
do the job for them. But there is a far better way to be romantic and it doesn’t involve spending a fortune
or even opening your mouth.
In the days before courting consisted of hanging out and getting drinks, courting was a formal and
dignified endeavor. Symbols were used to express feelings and thoughts deemed too special for mere
words. During the Victorian Era, a whole romantic language developed around the giving and receiving of
flowers. Everything from the type and size of the flower to the way it was held or presented conveyed
layers of meaning and communicated a gentleman’s feelings and intentions. Each bouquet contained a
secret message for a lady to eagerly interpret and endlessly dissect.
Mã đề 923- Trang 3
- These days giving flowers has become a somewhat ho-hum cliché. Resurrecting this Victorian tradition
will infuse the gesture with new life and romance and bring back some of the subtly, mystery, and fun of
courtship. Your lady will swoon that you put far more thought into your selection of flowers than grabbing
a bouquet out of the case at Wal-Mart. You’ll come off as a real gentleman and a hopeless romantic. It can
become an amazing tradition you’ll both enjoy. Seriously, women eat this stuff up.
Of course, even women nowadays have forgotten the meanings of flowers. So buy your lady a flower
dictionary. And keep a copy for yourself (it’s important that you both use the same reference, as the
meanings were never set in stone and can sometimes vary from book to book). Then, each time you
present her with a bouquet, she can search the volume to find what secret messages you have embedded in
the flowers.
