PART 3. READING. (2ps)

I. Read the passage,and then decide whether the statements that follow are True (T) or False (F).

        In my opinion, using the computer as your hobby can be harmful to both your health and your social life. Firstly, sitting all day in front of the computer can cause health problems such as eye-tiredness and obesity. Secondly, you may get irritated easily. Besides, if you use the computer too much, you will not have time for our family and friends. In short, computers should only be used for a limited time.

II. Read the passage carefully. (1point)

MY VILLAGE

I live in a village by Mekong River. Every day, like most of my friends, I walk to school. After class, I often help my mother to collect water from the river and feed the chickens. At the weekend, the villagers often gather at the community hall where there is a TV. The adults watch TV, but more often they talk about their farm work and exchange news. The children run around, playing games and shouting merrily.

   My father sometimes takes me to the market town nearby where he sells our home products like vegetables, fruits, eggs… He then buys me an ice cream and lets me take a ride on the electric train in the town square. I love those trips.

    On starry nights, Children lie on the grass, looking at the sky and daring each other to find the Milky Way. We dream of faraway places.
