MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. If you _______ in arriving late, you'll be fired
A. persevere
B. insist
C. prevail
D. persist
-> Từ "insist" đọc qua là biết không đúng với câu rồi. Từ "prevail" mình chỉ biết nó có nghĩa là "thắng thế" chứ còn nghĩa khác thì mình không rõ =)) Vậy là còn 2 từ "persevere" & "persist".
- persevere : kiên trì, nhẫn nại (hướng tích cực)
- persist : kiên trì, cố chấp (hướng tiêu cực)
Vì ý nghĩa của câu nghiêng về hướng tiêu cực vì người nói muốn cảnh báo đối phương (you'll be fired) => Chọn D. persist
Khi dịch câu đại loại sẽ là : Nếu bạn còn cố chấp đến muộn, bạn sẽ bị sa thải (nghe rất hợp lí :))

Read the passage and choose the correct choice. (3 points)
Up to about 1915, movies were shot and programs were made up of several works. Then, D.W.Griffith and others began to make longer films that provided the same powerful emotional appeal as did melodrama and presented spectacles far beyond what the theater could offer. Consequently, after World War I increasing numbers of spectators deserted the theater for the movies. This trend was accelerated in the late 1920s as a result of two new elements. In 1927 sound was added to the previously silent film, and thus one of the theater's principal claims to superiority vanished. In 1929 a serious economic depression began. Since audiences could go to the movies for a fraction of what it cost to see a play, theater going became a luxury that few could afford, especially as the depression deepened. By the end of World War II, the American theater had been reduced to about thirty theaters in New York City and a small number of touring companies originating there.

B/ READING COMPREHENSION
There are thousands of different kinds of microbes. Microbes called bacteria are the smallest
living things. Bacteria live almost everywhere: on land, in water, and even inside you.
Some microscopic life forms are like plants. Tiny diatoms are microbes that live in lakes and the
ocean. Diatoms soak up sunlight and use its energy to make food, just like plants.
Some microscopic life forms are more like animals. Protozoa such as the amoeba and paramecium
are animal-like microorganisms. An amoeba can move by changing the shape of its body. It sticks out
a seudopod, or false foot. A paramecium is covered with tiny hairs. It waves its hairs rapidly to swim.
Viruses are another kind of microbe. Viruses sometimes act like living things and other times act
like nonliving things. Viruses sometimes live in the cells of plants and animals. Inside a cell, a virus
reproduces like a living thing. The virus uses the cell to make many copies of itself. Viruses are too
small to see with an ordinary microscope. You need a powerful electron microscope to see a virus.
Outside of a plant or animal cell, a virus is like a nonliving thing.
