JOIN THE LAUGHTER CLUB!<br />
A lot of research had been done suggesting that laughter is good for us and there are many<br />
benefits to the mind and body. In 1995, Dr Madan Kataria decided to follow up on the research<br />
findings. He went to a public garden in the city of Mumbai, in India and spoke to people there about<br />
Trang 3/6 - Mã đề thi 132<br />
<br />
starting a laughter club. At first, not everyone was enthusiastic but as he explained the health benefits<br />
of laughter, a number of people showed interest and the first laughter club was born. It had just four<br />
members, who would stand-and tell jokes in a quiet corner of the garden to get each other to laugh.<br />
Although everyone enjoyed the fun, they soon ran out of good jokes. So Dr Kataria decided the club<br />
members would laugh without jokes at their future meetings.<br />
From then on, they started their meetings by laughing out loud without any real reason. This false<br />
laughter soon turned into the real thing, and they realised they really could do without the jokes. The<br />
doctor had them try different kinds of laughter, stopping every now and then to practise deep<br />
breathing. Doctor Kataria also came up with some stretch exercises for the neck and shoulder<br />
muscles they could do as well as deep breathing.<br />
Today there are about 6,000 laughter clubs in 60 countries around the world. The members of<br />
these clubs get together daily or weekly to laugh together for about 20 minutes. They gather in parks<br />
and on beaches. Any outdoor public place will do as long as it is far away from peoples’ houses. That<br />
way the sound of 20 or so people all laughing together won’t disturb people in their homes.<br />
Meetings are usually held early in the morning when there is less air pollution.<br />
These clubs appeal to people for a number of reasons. Firstly, there are the health benefits: club<br />
members say that it helps them with their asthma and it can help with headaches too. According to<br />
Dr Kataria, laughter clubs also help young people. Our teenage years can be difficult ones, he says,<br />
and laughing can help us get rid of feelings like anger or jealousy. It can also help with the stress<br />
young people often experience at school or college.<br />
In addition, people form friendships at laughter clubs, and will usually lend a hand to any club<br />
member who is in trouble. For example, when the shop of one laughter club member burnt down, the<br />
other members raised some of the money he needed to rebuild his shop. People who have few friends<br />
or relatives find that loneliness is less of a problem after they join a laughter club because they get to<br />
know the other people.<br />
So, if you feel that laughter has been missing from your life recently, why not find out if there is a<br />
laughter club in your area? It might be just what the doctor ordered.<br />
Câu 32: According to the passage, doctor Kataria wanted to start a laughter club because______.<br />

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the<br />
correct answer to each of the questions from 42 to 48.<br />
Even before the turn of the century, movies began to develop in two major directions: the realistic<br />
and the formalistic. Realism and formalism are merely general, rather than absolute terms. When<br />
used to suggest a tendency toward either polarity, such labels can be helpful, but in the end they are<br />
still just labels. Few films are exclusively formalist in style, and fewer yet are completely realist.<br />
There is also an important difference between realism and reality, although this distinction is often<br />
forgotten. Realism is a particular style, whereas physical reality is the source of all the raw materials<br />
of film, both realistic and formalistic. Virtually all movie directors go to the photographable world<br />
for their subject matter, but what they do with this material - how they shape and manipulate it determines their stylistic emphasis.<br />
Generally speaking, realistic films attempt to reproduce the surface of concrete reality with a<br />
minimum of distortion. In photographing objects and events, the filmmaker tries to suggest the<br />
copiousness of life itself. Both realist and formalist film directors must select (and hence emphasize)<br />
certain details from the chaotic sprawl of reality. But the element of selectivity in realistic films is<br />
less obvious. Realists, in short, try to preserve the illusion that their film world is unmanipulated, an<br />
objective mirror of the actual world. Formalists, on the other hand, make no such pretense. They<br />
deliberately stylize and distort their raw materials so that only the very naive would mistake a<br />
manipulated image of an object or event for the real thing.<br />
We rarely notice the style in a realistic movie; the artist tends to be self-effacing. Some<br />
filmmakers are more concerned with what is being shown than how it is manipulated. The camera is<br />
used conservatively. It is essentially a recording mechanism that reproduces the surface of tangible<br />
objects with as little commentary as possible. A high premium is placed on simplicity, spontaneity,<br />
and directness. This is not to suggest that these movies lack artistry, however, for at its best the<br />
realistic cinema specializes in art that conceals art.<br />
Câu 42: What does the passage mainly discuss?<br />
A. Styles of filmmaking<br />
B. Filmmaking 100 years ago<br />
C. Film plots<br />
D. Acting styles<br />
Câu 43: With which of the following statements would the author be most likely to agree?<br />
A. Most films are neither exclusively realistic nor formalistic.<br />
B. Formalistic films are less artistic than realistic ones.<br />
C. Realism and formalism are outdated terms.<br />
D. Realistic films are more popular than formalistic ones.<br />
Câu 44: Who does the author say is primarily responsible for the style of a film?<br />
A. The director<br />
B. The actors<br />
C. The producer<br />
D. The camera operator<br />
