Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct<br />
answer to each of the question from 1 to 7.<br />
These days, most people in Britain and the US do not wear very formal clothes. But sometimes it is<br />
important to wear the right thing.<br />
Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they<br />
go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on<br />
what you like from elegant suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean<br />
and tidy.<br />
But in Britain, as well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses<br />
or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels<br />
and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear smart dresses.<br />
In many years, Americans are more relaxed than British people, but they are more careful with their<br />
clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes. But when they go out in the<br />
evening, they like to look elegant. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and<br />
women wear pretty clothes and smart hairstyles.<br />
It is difficult to say exactly what people wear informal or formal in Britain and the US, because<br />
everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same.<br />
You'll feel more relaxed if you don't look too different from everyone else.<br />

answer to each of the questions from 41 to 48.<br />
After 1785, the production of children's books in the Untied States increased but remained largely<br />
reprints of British books, often those published by John Newbery, the first publisher to produce books aimed<br />
primarily at diverting a child audience. Ultimately, however, it was not the cheerful, commercial-minded<br />
Newbery, but Anglo-Irish author Maria Edge worth who had the strongest influence on this period of<br />
American children's literature. The eighteenth century had seen a gradual shift away from the spiritual<br />
intensity of earlier American religious writings for children, toward a more generalized moralist. Newbery<br />
notwithstanding, Americans still looked on children's books as vehicles for instruction, not amusement,<br />
though they would accept a moderate amount of fictional entertainment for the sake of more successful<br />
instruction. As the children's book market expanded, then, what both public and publishers wanted was the<br />
kind of fiction Maria Edge worth wrote: stories interesting enough to attract children and morally instructive<br />
Trang 3/ 4 Mã đề 108<br />
<br />
enough to allay adult distrust of fiction.<br />
American reaction against imported books for children set in after the War of 1812 with the British. A<br />
wave of nationalism permeated everything, and the self-conscious new nation found foreign writings<br />
(particularly those from the British monarchy) unsuitable for the children of a democratic republic, a slate of<br />
self-governing, equal citizens. Publishers of children's books began to encourage American writers to write for<br />
American children. When they responded, the pattern established by Maria Edge worth was at hand, attractive<br />
to most of them for both its rationalism and its high moral tone. Early in the 1820's, stories of willful children<br />
learning to obey, of careless children learning to take care, of selfish children learning to "tire for others,"<br />
started to flow from American presses, successfully achieving Edge worth’s tone, though rarely her lively<br />
style. Imitative as they were, these early American stories wee quite distinguishable from their British<br />
counterparts. Few servants appeared in them, and if class distinctions had by no means disappeared, there was<br />
much democratic insistence on the worthiness of every level of birth and work. The characters of children in<br />
this fiction were serious, conscientious, self-reflective, and independent-testimony to the continuing influence<br />
of the earlier American moralistic tradition in children's books.<br />

A. Basic differences between British and American literature for children<br />
B. Successful publishers of children's books in Britain and North America<br />

A. He had more influence on children American children's literature than any other publisher<br />
B. He published books aimed at amusing children rather than instructing them.<br />
C. He was commercially minded and cheerful.<br />
D. He produced and sold books written by Maria Edge worth.<br />
