Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question.
Although bear-like, koalas are not bears. They are mammals, so feed their young milk and are marsupials, which means
that their babies are born immature and they develop further in the safety of a pouch. They are tree-dwelling,
herbivorous marsupials, which average about 9kg in weight and live on gum leaves. Their fur is thick and usually ash
grey with a tinge of brown in places. Koalas in the southern parts of Australia are considerably larger and have thicker
fur than those in the north. This is thought to be an adaptation to keep them warm in the colder southern winters.
Younger breeding females usually give birth to one joey each year, depending on a range of factors. The joey stays in
its mother’s pouch for about 6 or 7 months, drinking only milk. After venturing out of the pouch, the joey rides on its
mother’s abdomen or back, although it continues to return to her pouch for milk until it is too big to fit inside. The joey
leaves its mother’s home range between 1 and 3 years old, depending on when the mother has her next joey.
Koalas are mostly nocturnal. They sleep for part of the night and also sometimes move about in the daytime. They
often sleep for up to 18-20 hours each day. There is a myth that koalas sleep a lot because they ‘get drunk’ on gum
leaves. However, most of their time is spent sleeping because it requires a lot of energy to digest their toxic, fibrous,
low-nutrition diet and sleeping is the best way to conserve energy.
The koala gets its name from an ancient Aboriginal word meaning “no drink” because it receives over 90% of its
hydration from the eucalyptus leaves (also known as gum leaves) it eats, and only drinks when ill or times when there is
not enough moisture in the leaves i.e. during droughts, etc.
Câu 39. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Koalas’ Breeding.
B. The Real Story About Koalas.
C. The Origin Of The Koala’s Name And Its Eating Habits.
D. Koalas Are Mammals, Not Bears.

A. They don’t give birth until the females reach 6 or 7 months.
B. They give birth to one offspring annually.
C. They give birth to one joey biannually.
D. They don’t breed during the day.
Câu 41. The word it in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. a mother B. a pouch C. back D. a joey
Câu 42. The word nocturnal in paragraph 3 is ______.
A. active at night B. awake at daytime
C. sleepy at night D. sleepy all day and night

A. Koalas spend up to twenty hours sleeping each day.
B. Koalas do not drink water normally.
C. Koalas are herbivorous and tree-dwelling.
D. Koalas drink a lot of water during the meals in order to digest gum leaves.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and related technologies are increasingly prevalent in business and society; besides, they
have been applied to education. These technologies have the potential to transform many aspects of the teaching -
learning process.
Mã đề 101 Trang 3/4
- Basic activities in education like grading can be automated with the help of AI. At educational institutes, marking a
large number of tests and assignments is tedious work. Teachers often find that grading takes up a considerable amount
of time which can be used to interact with students and prepare for class. AI, at present, may not be able to actually
replace human grading; however, it's getting pretty close. Nearly all kinds of multiple choice and fill-in-the blank
testing can now be performed by Al-driven machines, and automated grading of student writing may not be far behind.
Essay-grading softwares are still in their infancy, yet they will be fully developed over the coming years, allowing
teachers to focus more on classroom activities and professional development.
Learners can also get additional support from AI. For instance, tutoring programs based on artificial intelligence
already exist to help students with basic courses of mathematics, writing, foreign language, etc. With the rapid pace of
technological advancement in recent years, sophisticated tutoring systems which can help students learn high order
thinking and stimulate their creativity will not be a pipe dream. Moreover, Al programs can give learners useful
feedback and assistance. Some schools, especially those with online courses, are using AI systems to monitor students'
progress. These systems not only offer students advice on individual courses but also help students choose majors in
accordance with areas where they succeed or struggle.
For better or worse, AI systems have taken place in certain types of classroom activities. In the next decades, their
influences will extend significantly, which offers both teacher and students a much wider range of services.
Câu 44. What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. be fully developed by teachers
B. mark student writing automatically
C. find out all the mistakes in students' papers
D. grade almost all types of fill-in-the-blank questions
Câu 47. The word "a pipe dream" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to___________
A. an expression B. a denotation C. a phenomenon D. an illusion
Câu 48. The word “they” in paragraph 2 refers to___________
