PANDEMIC DISEASES

Diseases are a natural part of life on earth . If there were no diseases , the population would grow too quickly , and there would not be enough food or other resources , so in a way , diseases are natural ways of keeping the Earth in balance . But sometimes they spread very quickly and kill large numbers of people . For example , in 1918 , an outbreak of the flu spread across the world , killing over 25 million people in only six months . Such terrible outbreaks of a diseases are called pandemics

Pandemics happen when a disease changes in a way that our bodies are not prepared to fight . In 1918 , a new type of flu virus appeared . Our bodies had no way to fight this new flu virus , and so it spread very quickly and killed large numbers of people . While there have been many different pandemic diseases throughout history , all of them have a new thing in common . First , all pandemic diseases spread from one person to another very easily .

Second , while they may kill many people , they generally do not kill people very quickly . A good example of this would be the Marburg virus . The Marburg virus is an extremely infectious disease . In addition , it is deadly . About 70 - 80 % of all people who get the Marburg virus died from the disease . However , the Marburg virus has not become a pandemic because most people die within three days of getting the disease . This means that the virus does not have enough time to spread a large number of people . The flu virus of 1918 , on the other hand , generally took about a week to ten days to kill its victims , so it had more time to spread .

While we may never be able to completely stop pandemics , we can make them less common . Doctors carefully monitor new diseases that they fear could become pandemics . For example , in 2002 , and 2003 , doctors carefully watched SARS . Their health warnings may have prevented SARS from becoming a pandemic .

Question 1 : According to paragraph 1 , how are diseases a natural part of life on Earth ?

A. They prevent pandemics B. They help control the population

C. They led the world grow quickly D. They kill too many people

Question 2 : Based on the information in the passage the term " pandemics " can be explained as .............................................

A. diseases with no cure

B. a deadly kind of flu

C. diseases that spread quickly and kill large numbers of people

D. new disease like SARS or the Marburg virus

Question 3 : According to the passage , all of the following are true of the 1918 flu pandemic EXCEPT that ...............................................

A. it involved a new kind of flu virus B. it killed over 25 million people

C. it was the last pandemic in history D. it took a little over a week to kill ít victims

Question 4 : The word " it " in the passage refers to .......................

A. disease B. flu virus C. pandemics D. bodies

Question 5 : Which of the following is mentioned as a common feature of all pandemic diseases ?

A. They spread from people to people very quickly

B. It kill many people very quickly

C. They do not kill people very quickly

D. They kill all the victims

Question 6 : The word " monitor " in the passage is closest is meaning to ........................

A. fight B. prevent C. watch D. avoid

Question 7 : The author mentions SARS in order to .............................

A. give an example of a highly dangerous disease

B. suggest that SARS will never become a pandemic

C. give an example of the successful prevention of a pandemic

D. suggest that there may be a new pandemic soon .

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 43.

The difference between the nuclear family and the extended family is that a nuclear family refers to a single basic family unit of parents and their children, whereas the extended family refers to their relatives such as grandparents, in-laws, aunts and uncles, etc. In many cultures, and particularly indigenous societies, the latter is the most common basic form of social organization.

A nuclear family is limited, according to Kristy Jackson of Colorado State University, to one or two parents (e.g. a father and mother) and their own child, or children, living together in a single house or other dwellings. In anthropology, they only must be related in this fashion; there is no upper or lower limit on the number of children in a nuclear family.

The extended family is a much more nebulous term, but in essence refers to kin or relations not covered by the above definition. In historical Europe and Asia as well as in Middle Eastern, African, and South American Aboriginal cultures, extended family groups were typically the most basic unit of social organization, The term can differ in specific cultural settings, but generally includes people related in age or by lineage.

Anthropologically, the term "extended family" refers to such a group living together in a household, often with three generations living together (grandparents, parents, and children) and headed in patriarchal societies by the eldest man or by some other chosen leadership figure. However, in common parlance, the term "extended family" is often used by people simply to refer to their cousins, aunts, uncles, and so on, even though they are not living together in a single group.

What is the passage mainly about?

A. The dominance of nuclear families over extended ones

B. The dominance of extended families over nuclear ones

C. A distinction between nuclear families and extended ones

D. The changes of family types over times

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 history of clinic nutrition, or the study of the relationship between health and how the body takes in and utilizers food substances, can be divided into four distinct eras: the first began in the nineteenth century and extended into the early twentieth century when it was recognized for the first time that food contained constituents that were essential agents. Near the end of this era, research studies demonstrated that rapid weight loss was associated with nitrogen imbalance and could only be rectified by providing adequate protein associate with certain foods.

The second era was initiated in the early decades of the twentieth century and might be called "the vitamin period". Vitamins came to be recognized in foods, en deficiency syndromes were described. As vitamins became recognized as essential food constituents necessary for health, it became tempting to suggest that every disease and condition for which there had been no previous effective treatment might be responsive to vitamin therapy. At the point in time, medical schools started to become more interested in having their curricula integrate nutritional therapies in medicine. Reckless claims were made for effects of vitamins that went far beyond what could actually be achieved from the use of them.

In the third era of nutritional history in the early 1950's to mid-1960's, vitamin therapy began to fall into disrepute. Concomitant with this, nutrition education in medical schools also became less popular. It was just a decade before this that many drug companies had found their vitamins sales skyrocketing and were quick to supply practicing physicians with generous samples of vitamins and literature extolling the virtue of supplementation for a variety health-related conditions. Expectations as to the success of vitamins in disease control were exaggerated. As is known in retrospect, vitamin and mineral therapies are much less effective when applied to health-crisis conditions that when applied to long-term problems of nutrition that lead chronic health problem.

The word "them" refers to ________.

A. therapies

B. claims

C. effects

D. vitamins

Read the text and answer the questions given by choosing one numbered options.

A number of factors related to the voice reveal the personality of the speaker.

The first is the broad area of communication, which includes imparting information by use of language, communicating with a group or an individual and specialized communication through performance. A person conveys thoughts and ideas through choice of words, by a tone of voice that is pleasant or unpleasant, gentle or harsh, by the rhythm that is inherent within the language itself, and by speech rhythms that are flowing and regular or uneven and hesitant, and finally, by the pitch and melody of the utterance. When speaking before a group, a person’s tone may indicate uncertainty or fright, confidence or calm. At interpersonal levels, the tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and above the words chosen, or may believe them. Here, the participant’s tone can consciously or unconsciously reflect intuitive sympathy or antipathy, lack of concern or interest, fatigue, anxiety, enthusiasm or excitement, all of which are usually discernible by the acute listener. Public performance is a manner of communication that is highly specialized with its own techniques for obtaining effects by voice and /or gesture. The motivation derived from the text, and in the case of singing, the music, in combination with the performer’s skills, personality, and ability to create empathy will determine the success of artistic, political, or pedagogic communication.

Second, the voice gives psychological clues to a person’s self-image, perception of others, and emotional health. Self-image can be indicated by a tone of voice that is confident, pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing, or exuberant, to name only a few personality traits. Also the sound may give a clue to the facade or mask of that person, for example, a shy person hiding behind an overconfident front.

How a speaker perceives the listener’s receptiveness, interest, or sympathy in any given conversation can drastically alter the tone of presentation, by encouraging or discouraging the speaker. Emotional health is evidenced in the voice by free and melodic sounds of the happy, by constricted and harsh sound of the angry, and by dull and lethargic qualities of the depressed

The word "Here" in line 9 refers to ___________.

A. interpersonal interaction

B. the tone

C. ideas and feelings

D. words chosen

Dịch bài

Sự khác biệt giữa gia đình hạt nhân và gia đình mở rộng là gia đình hạt nhân chỉ một đơn vị gia đình cơ bản gồm cha mẹ và con cái của họ, trong khi gia đình mở rộng bao gồm cả nguwoif thân của họ như ông bà, bố mẹ, cô dì chú bác…Trong nhiều nền văn hóa, và đặc biệt là các xã hội bản địa, loại hình thứ hai là hình thức phổ biến nhất của tổ chức xã hội.

Theo Kristy Jackson thuộc Đại học Bang Colorado, gia đình hạt nhân có giới hạn, cho một hoặc cả hai cha mẹ (ví dụ như cha và mẹ) và một đứa con của họ, hoặc nhiều đứa, sống chung trong một ngôi nhà hoặc nhiều ngôi nhà khác. Trong nhân chủng học, họ chỉ có liên quan theo cách này; không có giới hạn trên hoặc dưới đối với số con trong một gia đình hạt nhân.

Gia đình mở rộng là một thuật ngữ mơ hồ hơn nhiều, nhưng về bản chất đề cập đến thân nhân hoặc quan hệ không được định nghĩa ở trên. Trong lịch sử châu Âu và châu Á cũng như ở các nền văn minh thổ dân ở Trung Đông, châu Phi và Nam Mỹ, các nhóm gia đình mở rộng thường là đơn vị cơ bản nhất của tổ chức xã hội. Thuật ngữ có thể khác nhau trong các bối cảnh văn hóa cụ thể, nhưng nói chung bao gồm những người liên quan đến tuổi tác hoặc huyết thống.

Về mặt nhân chủng học, thuật ngữ “gia đình mở rộng” dùng để chỉ một nhóm người sống chung trong một hộ gia đình, thường có ba thế hệ cùng sống chung với nhau (ông bà, cha mẹ và con cái) và đứng đầu trong các xã hội gia trưởng bởi người đàn ông nhiều tuổi nhất hoặc bởi người lãnh đạo được lựa chọn. Tuy nhiên, theo cách hiểu chung, thuật ngữ “gia đình mở rộng” thường được mọi người sử dụng để chỉ họ hàng, cô dì, chú bác,…mặc dù họ không sống cùng nhau trong một nhóm.

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 following questions.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law in 1990. This law extends civil rights protection to persons with disabilities in private sector employment, all public services, and in public accommodations, transportation and telecommunications. A person with a disability is defined as someone with a mental or physical impairment that substantially limits him or her in a major life activity, such as walking, talking, working, or self-care. A person with a disability may also be someone with a past record of such impairment, for example, someone who no longer has heart disease but is discriminated against because of that history.

The ADA states that employers with fifteen or more employees may not refuse to hire or promote a person because of a disability if that person is qualified to perform the job. Also, the employer must make reasonable accommodations that will allow a person with a disability to perform essential functions of the job.

All new vehicles purchased by public transit authorities must be accessible to people with disabilities. All rail stations must be made accessible, and at least one car per train in existing rail systems must be made accessible.

It is illegal for public accommodations to exclude or refuse persons with disabilities. Public accommodations are businesses and services such as restaurants, hotels, grocery stores and parks. All new buildings must be made accessible, and existing facilities must remove barriers if the removal can be accomplished without much difficulty or expense.

The ADA also stipulates that companies offering telephone service to the general public must offer relay services to individuals who use telecommunications devices for the deaf, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week

The word “facilities” in paragraph 4 refers to __________.

A. barriers

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.

Are organically grown foods the best food choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic foods – a term whose meaning varies greatly – frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious than others.

The growing interest of consumers in the safety and more nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance of written material advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for folklore.

Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for “no-aging” diets, new vitamins, and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains and the like.

One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food and buy only expensive organic foods instead.

The word “others” refers to _______.
