Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C , or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

These days it is easy for most of us to get a hold of the latest books or magazines. We can go to bookstores, order them through the Internet, or borrow them from the local libraries. Now imagine having to walk miles and miles through a hot sandy desert just to borrow a book. This is the reality for people living in the villages of the Carissa region of Kenya in East Africa.

In 1996, librarian Wycliffe Oluoch used to spend each day waiting for people to come to borrow some of the 24,000 books in his library in Carissa. The library had no shortage of books, but people weren’t coming to read them. It was too much effort to walk through the desert just to borrow books. Oluoch racked his brain for ways to entice people into the library. After a lot of thought, he hit upon a great idea. If people wouldn’t come to the library, then he would have to take the library to them. Oluoch strapped boxes of books onto the backs of camels, and created the Mobile Camel Library.

Starting with three camels in 1996, but more recently expanding the service to six camels, the Mobile Camel Library serves over one million people. Twice a month, the camel library can be seen carrying books all around the Carissa region. These hard-working animals need little water and can carry up to 500 pounds of books across the sands. A librarian, a library assistant, a herdsman, and a lookout all travel with the camels. The lookout helps protect the books from thieves.

The children of Carissa love the camel library and appreciate Oluoch’s effort. Eleven-year-old Mohamud Mohamed reads his library books carefully and always returns them on time. He knows the Carissa library punishes people for losing books, just like any other library. However, the punishment is very stiff compared to that of other libraries. If a village loses a book, the camel library stops visiting.

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 from 36 to 42.

The Internet is very much like television, in which it takes time away from other pursuits, provides entertainment and information, but in no way can compare with the warm, personal experience of reading a good book. This is not the only reason why the Internet will never replace books, for books provide the in-depth knowledge of a subject that sitting in front of a computer monitor cannot provide. We can download text from an Internet source, but the aesthetic quality of sheets of downloaded text leave much to be desired. A well-designed book enhances the reading experience.

The book is still the most compact and inexpensive means of conveying a dense amount of knowledge in a convenient package. The easy portability of the book is what makes it the most user-friendly format for knowledge ever invented. The idea that one can carry in one's pocket a play by Shakespeare, a novel by Charles Dickens or Tom Clancy, Plato's Dialogues, or the Bible in a small paperback edition is mind-boggling. We take such uncommon convenience for granted, not realizing that the book itself has undergone quite an evolution since the production of the Gutenberg Bible in 1455 and Shakespeare's First Folio in 1623, just three years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth to colonize the New World.

Not only has the art and craft of printing and book manufacturing been greatly improved over the centuries, but the great variety of subject matter now available in books is astounding, to say the least. In fact, the Internet requires the constant input of authors and their books to provide it with the information that makes it a useful tool for exploration and learning.

Another important reason why the Internet will never replace books is because those who wish to become writers want to see their works permanently published as books - something you can hold, see, feel, skim through, and read at one's leisure without the need for an electric current apart from a lamp. The writer may use a word processor instead of a typewriter or a pen and pad, but the finished product must eventually end up as a book if it is to have value to the reading public. The writer may use the Internet in the course of researching a subject just as he may use a library for that purpose, but the end product will still be a book.

Which of the following is mentioned as the advantage of books in paragraph 2?

A. expensive, moderate and portable

B. Một cuốn sách được thiết kế tốt thì sẽ giúp việc đọc sách có hiệu quả hơn là văn bản tải xuống từ Internet.

C. Không có một cuộc tiến hoá sách nào bởi vì sự thuận tiện không phổ biến của nó.

D. Qua nhiều thế kỉ, bề ngoài của sách đã được nâng cấp.

Căn cứ vào các thông tin sau trong bài đọc:

This is not the only reason why the Internet will never replace books, for books provide the in-depth knowledge of a subject that sitting in front of a computer monitor cannot provide. (Đây không phải là lí do duy nhất tại sao Internet sẽ không bao giờ thay thế được sách, vì sách cung cấp kiến thức chuyên sâu về một chủ đề mà việc ngồi trước màn hình máy tính không thể cung cấp được.)

A well-designed book enhances the reading experience. (Một cuốn sách được thiết kế tốt sẽ nâng cao trải nghiệm đọc sách.)

We take such uncommon convenience for granted, not realizing that the book itself has undergone quite an evolution since the production of the Gutenberg Bible in 1455 and Shakespeare's First Folio in 1623, just three years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth to colonize the New World. (Chúng ta đã coi sự thuận tiện không phổ biến đó là đương nhiên, không nhận ra rằng bản thân cuốn sách đã trải qua một

quá trình tiến hóa kể từ khi sản xuất Kinh Thánh Gutenberg năm 1455 Vd Folio đầu tiên của Shakespeare năm 1623, chỉ ba năm sau khi những người hành hương đến Plymouth để chiếm đóng thế giới mới.)

Not only has the art and craft of printing and book manufacturing been greatly improved over the centuries, but the great variety of subject matter now available in books is astounding, to say the least. (Không chỉ có nghệ thuật và thủ công in ấn và sản xuất sách được cải thiện đáng kể qua nhiều thế kỷ, mà sự đa dạng lớn của chủ đề bấy giờ có sẵn trong sách cũng là đáng kinh ngạc, ít nhất là như vậy.)

Tạm dịch

Internet giống như truyền hình, cái mà chiếm mất nhiều thời gian dùng để theo đuổi các mục đích khác, cung cấp giải trí và thông tin, nhưng thế nào có thể so sánh với trải nghiệm cá nhân ấm áp của việc đọc một cuốn sách hay. Đây không phải là lý do duy nhất tại sao Internet sẽ không bao giờ thay thế được

sách, vì sách cung cấp kiến thức chuyên sâu về một chủ đề mà việc ngồi trước màn hình máy tính không thể cung cấp được. Chúng ta có thể tải một văn bản từ một nguồn Internet, nhưng chất lượng thẩm mỹ của các tờ văn bản tải xuống không như mong muốn. Một cuốn sách được thiết kế tốt sẽ nâng cao trải

nghiệm đọc sách.

Sách vẫn là phương tiện nhỏ gọn và rẻ tiền nhất để truyền tải một lượng kiến thức dày đặc trong một kích thước thuận tiện. Tính di động dễ dàng của cuốn sách là điều làm cho nó trở thành định dạng thân thiện với người dùng nhất cho kiến thức từng được phát minh. Ý tưởng rằng người ta có thể mang trong túi của mình một vở kịch của Shakespeare, một cuốn tiểu thuyết của Charles Dickens hoặc Tom Clancy, Đối Thoại của Plato, hay Kinh Thánh trong một ấn bản bìa mềm nhỏ làm tâm trí lưỡng lự. Chúng ta đã coi sự thuận tiện không phố biển đó là đương nhiên, không nhận ra rằng bản thân cuốn sách đã trải qua một quá trình tiến hóa kể từ khi sản xuất Kinh Thánh Gutenberg năm 1455 và F olio đầu tiên của Shakespeare năm 1623, chỉ ba năm sau khi những người hành hương đến Plymouth để chiếm đóng thế giới mới.

Không chỉ có nghệ thuật và thủ công in ấn và sản xuất sách được cải thiện đáng kể qua nhiều thế kỷ, mà sự đa dạng lớn của chủ đề bây giờ có sẵn trong sách cũng là đáng kinh ngạc, ít nhất là như vậy. Trên thực tế, Internet đòi hỏi đầu vào liên tục của tác giả và sách của họ để cung cấp cho nó thông tin làm cho nó trở thành một công cụ hữu ích để khám phá và học tập.

Một lý do quan trọng khác tại sao Internet sẽ không bao giờ thay thế được sách là bởi vì những người muốn trở thành nhà văn muốn xem tác phẩm của họ được xuất bản vĩnh viễn dưới dạng sách - một thứ bạn có thể nắm giữ, xem, cảm nhận, đọc lướt qua và đọc giải trí mà không cần dòng điện ngoài một chiếc đèn.

Người viết có thể sử dụng bộ xử lý văn bản thay vì máy đánh chữ hoặc bút và giấy, những sản phẩm hoàn chỉnh cuối cùng phải kết thúc dưới dạng sách nếu nó có giá trị cho cộng đồng đọc sách. Nhà văn có thể sử dụng Internet trong quá trình nghiên cứu một chủ đề giống như ông có thể sử dụng một thư viện cho mục đích đó, nhưng sản phẩm cuối cùng vẫn sẽ là một cuốn sách.

We take such uncommon convenience for granted, not realizing that the book itself has undergone quite an evolution since the production of the Gutenberg Bible in 1455 and Shakespeare's First Folio in 1623, just three years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth to colonize the New World.

Not only has the art and craft of printing and book manufacturing been greatly improved over the centuries, but the great variety of subject matter now available in books is astounding, to say the least. In fact, the Internet requires the constant input of authors and their books to provide it with the information that makes it a useful tool for exploration and learning.

Another important reason why the Internet will never replace books is because those who wish to become writers want to see their works permanently published as books - something you can hold, see, feel, skim through, and read at one's leisure without the need for an electric current apart from a lamp. The writer may use a word processor instead of a typewriter or a pen and pad, but the finished product must eventually end up as a book if it is to have value to the reading public. The writer may use the Internet in the course of researching a subject just as he may use a library for that purpose, but the end product will still be a book.

What is the author's main idea in the passage?

A. The Internet distracts people from other pursuits.

B. Books have been improved in both appearance and content.

C. The Internet and books will replace each other.

D. Books will not be replaced by the Internet.

CHỦ ĐỀ BOOKS

Ý chính của tác giả trong đoạn văn là gì?

A. Internet làm mọi người xao nhãng khỏi những đam mê khác.

B. Sách đã được cải thiện cả về hình thức lẫn nội dung.

C. Internet và sách sẽ thay thể lẫn nhau.

D. Sách sẽ không bị thay thế bởi Internet.

Căn cứ vào thông tin đoạn đầu và cả bài:

Tác giả khẳng định, internet sẽ không thể nào thay thế được sách và đưa ra các lý do để chứng minh điều đó.

The Internet is very much like television in which it takes time away from other pursuits, provides entertainment and information, but in no way can compare with the warm, personal experience‘of reading a good book. This is not the only reason why the Internet will never replace books, for books provide the in-depth knowledge of a subject that sitting in front of a computer monitor cannot provide. (Internet giống như truyền hình, cái mà chiếm mất nhiều thời gian dùng để theo đuổi các mục đích khác, cung cấp giải trí và thông tin, nhưng không cách nào có thể so sánh với kinh nghiệm cá nhân ấm áp của việc đọc một cuốn sách hay. Đây không phải là lý do duy nhất tại sao Internet sẽ không bao giờ thay thế được sách, vì sách cung cấp kiến thức chuyên sâu về một chủ đề mà việc ngồi trước màn hình máy tính không thể cung cấp được)
