Read the passage and choose the best answer. Right now, the biggest source of energy in the world is fossil fuel. Fossil fuels are oil, gas, and coal. More than 80 percent of the world's energy comes from fossil fuel. There are many problems with fossil fuel. One problem is that when fossil fuel is burned, it pollutes the air. Also, when we take fossil fuel from the Earth, we often cause a lot of damage. Another problem is that we are running out of it. That is why we need new sources of energy. A big source of energy for many countries is nuclear power. Thirty-one countries use nuclear power. Many ships also use it. Nuclear power has some advantages. First of all, we can't run out of nuclear power. Nuclear power does not make the air dirty. Also, if a country has nuclear power, it doesn't need to buy as much as oil from other countries. However, there are also a lot of problems that come with nuclear power. For example, nuclear accidents are very serious. In 1986, there was a nuclear accident in Ukraine. In the next 20 years, about 4,000 people got sick and died. In 2011, there was another very serious nuclear accident in Japan. Japan is still trying to clean up the nuclear waste from the accident. Many people don't want nuclear power in their countries. They say that it is not safe. A lot of people want their countries to use safer and cleaner ways to get electricity. There have been protests against nuclear energy in the United States, Russia, France, Taiwan, Japan, India, and many other countries. Although many people hate nuclear energy, more and more countries are using it. One reason for this is that the world is using more and more energy. We just don't have enough fossil fuel. However, if we use nuclear power, then we may have more serious problems in the future. 10. Which of the following is NOT true about fossil fuel? A. It can pollute the air. B. We don't use much of it. C. Its sources are limited. D. Mining fossil fuel can bring harm to the environment. 11. All of the following are true about nuclear accidents EXCEPT that ______. A. they have been very serious B. their effects can last many years C. it doesn't take us much time to clean up the nuclear waste from the accident D. there were serious nuclear accidents in Ukraine in 1986 and in Japan in 2011 12. The phrase "clean up" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______ A. block B. evacuate C. disappear D. remove 13. What does the word "They" in paragraph 4 refer to? A. countries B. protesters C. officials D. supporters 14. Which of the following statements would the author of the passage support most? A. Some governments are wrong when they are using nuclear energy. B. We should consider seriously nuclear power because it has both advantages and disadvantages. C. We can continue using nuclear energy until there is an accident. Trang 2/6 – Mã đề 158
D. Many people don't want nuclear power in their countries and governments should follow their people. Read the passage and choose the best answer. In our connected globalized world, the languages which dominate communications and business, Mandarin, Hindi, English, Spanish and Russian amongst others, are placing small languages spoken in remote places under increasing pressure. Fewer and fewer people speak languages such as Liki, Taushiro and Dumi as their children shift away from the language of their ancestors towards languages which promise education, success and the chance of a better life. While to many parents, this may appear a reasonable choice, giving their offspring the opportunity to achieve the sort of prosperity they see on television, the children themselves often lose touch with their roots. However, in many places the more reasonable option of bilingualism, where children learn to speak both a local and a national language, is being promoted. This gives hope that many endangered languages will survive, allowing people to combine their links to local tradition with access to wider world culture. While individuals are free to choose if they wish to speak a minority language, national governments should be under no obligation to provide education in an economically unproductive language, especially in times of budget constraints. It is generally accepted that national languages unite and help to create wealth while minority regional languages divide. Furthermore, governments have a duty to ensure that young people can fulfil their full potential, meaning that state education must provide them with the ability to speak and work in their national language and so equip them to participate responsibly in national affairs. People whose language competence does not extend beyond the use of a regional tongue have limited prospects. This means that while many people may feel a sentimental attachment to their local language, their government’s position should be one of benign neglect, allowing people to speak the language, but not acting to prevent its eventual disappearance. Many PhD students studying minority languages lack the resources to develop their language skills, with the result that they have to rely on interpreters and translators to communicate with speakers of the language they are studying. This has a detrimental effect on the quality of their research. At the same time, they have to struggle against the frequently expressed opinion that minority languages serve no useful purpose and should be allowed to die a natural death. Such a view fails to take into account the fact that a unique body of knowledge and culture, built up over thousands of years, is contained in a language and that language extinction and species extinction are different facets of the same process. They are part of an impending global catastrophe which is beginning to look unavoidable. (Adapted from Complete Advanced by Guy Brook – Hart and Simon Haines) 15. Which of the following could best serve as the main topic of the passage? A. The threat to minority languages in different parts of the world. B. The domination of business languages all over the world. C. The shift from regional to national languages in many countries. D. The benefits of national languages in modern world. Trang 3/6 – Mã đề 158
16. According to the first paragraph, why do many parents consider the change towards national languages a reasonable choice? A.

Because their children may have a chance to achieve education, success and better living condition. D. Because their children may help to combine their links to local tradition with access to wider world culture. 17. What does the word “this” in the first paragraph refer to? A. the more reasonable option B. the place where children can use bilingualism C. the opportunity to achieve prosperity D. the promotion of bilingualism 18. The word “constraints” in the second language is closest in meaning to ___________. A. investments B. restrictions C. crises D. depressions 19. What is the influence of the shortage of minority language resources on many PhD students mentioned in paragraph 3? A. These students are unable to persuade people to use the language they are learning. B. Their qualified research is unlikely to complete. C.
