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.
The biological community changes again as one moves from the city to the suburbs. Around all
cities is a biome called the “suburban forest” the tree of this forest are species that are favored
by man, and most of them have been deliberately planted. Mammals such as rabbits, skunks and
opossums have moves in from the surrounding countryside. Raccoons have become experts at
opening garbage cans, and in some places even deer wander suburban thoroughfares. Several
species of squirrel get along nicely in suburbia, but usually only one species is predominant in
any given suburb-fox squirrels in one place, red squirrels in another, grey squirrels in a third- for
reasons that are little understood. The diversity of birds in the suburbs is great, and in the south,
lizards thrive in gardens and even houses. Of course, insects are always present.
There is an odd biological sameness in these suburban communities. True, the palms of
Los Angeles are missing from the suburbs of Boston, and there are species of insects in Miami
not found in Seattle. But over wide stretches of the United States, ecological conditions in
suburban biomes vary much less than do those of natural biomes. And unlike the natural biomes,
the urban and suburban communities exist in spite of, not because of, the climate.
Câu 36: The author implies that the mammals of the “suburban forest” differ from most species
of trees there in which of the following ways”?
A. They are considered undesirable by humans?
B. They are represented by a greater number of species.
C. They were not deliberately introduced.
D. They have not fully adapted to suburban conditions.
Câu 37: the word “ thoroughfares” is closest in meaning to
A. Open spaces B. Streets C. Neighborhoods D. Lawns

D. Fox squirrels are more common than gray or red squirrels.
Câu 39: the word “ thrive” is closest in meaning to……..
A. reproduce B. survive C. Remain D. flourish
Câu 40: the word “odd” is closest in meaning to……

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.
Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effects of global warming.
Scientists have already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as
flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in the spring. Many species have begun
shifting where they live or their annual migration patterns due to warmer temperatures.
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate towards the poles and up mountainsides
towards higher elevations. Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges, seeking new areas as old
habitats grew too warm. In many places, however, human development will prevent these shifts.
Species that find cities or farmland blocking their way north or south may become extinct.
Species living in unique ecosystems, such as those found in polar and mountain top regions are
especially at risk because migration to new habitats is not possible.
For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the Arctic are already threatened by
dwindling sea ice but have nowhere farther north to go.
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult. Some scientists
have estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2
to 3 Celsius degrees of further warming. The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is
extremely important for plants and animals. Some species and even entire ecosystems, such as
certain types of forest, may not be able to adjust quickly enough and may disappear.
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global
warming. Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach", a state which if prolonged will
lead to the death of the coral. Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming
could lead to widespread bleaching and death of coral reefs around the world. Also, increasing
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere enters the ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters. This
