I. Read the passage and choose the best answer from A, B, C or D. LIFE OF A MAN Thomas is now in his sixties, and is one of the many homeless people who live on the streets he buys a newspaper most days. Today, with his fellow tramps, he reads about yesterday’ s student demonstration. Like many of the tramps that live under the bridge in New York, Thomas was not always so poor. A long time ago he was in the Navy, and like many who have been to sea for a long time, he has stayed slim and fit. Despite the strict organization on board ship, he loved the life, and had the opportunity to see many countries. He visited Poland and Russia; in South Africa he realized what he valued in each country was the people he met. He was always astonished and delighted by the ways in which the people he met differed from one country to another. Some day, he hopes, everyone will see the world as he does. After many happy years in Navy, he had to retire. The good things in life always come to an end. His mother and father had long since died and he’d lost touch with his other relatives. He came to New York and became an industrial designer. He was happy, although it wasn’t the same as the sea. He never wanted to get married and have children. And then there was the period of darkness. He smiles sadly. He shrugs his shoulders and looks at his hands. There are tears in the corners of his eyes. This is something that he cannot bring himself to talk about. “It all went wrong”, he whispers. He was silent for a minute; then recovered. He began to talk more loudly. “Look at me now­ it makes me angry. And what about the President? He’s been in power for years, and look what he’s done for us. Nothing! I’m still out on the streets and live the life of a tramp.” 39. It would appear that Thomas _________ A. has organized a protest recently. B. takes an interest in important events. C. has no contact with other homeless people. D. is not as poor as he used to be. 40. When Thomas was in the Navy, he _________ A. only visited three countries. B. enjoyed the strict life on board ship. C. was very well paid for the job he did. D. liked meeting people from different countries. 41. Thomas changed his job because he _________ A. was too old to stay in the Navy. B. wanted to start a family. C. wanted to be near his relatives in New York. D. did not enjoy the work any more. 42. Thomas lost his job and became a tramp because _________ A. he did not have any family. B. he was tired of doing normal job. C. of reasons he does not want to discuss D. of the death of his parents. 43. The text states that Thomas thinks the President _________ A. should not allow home people to stay on the streets. B.should increase pensions for oldpeople. C. has not had enough time to change things. D.should have done more to help people like him

Giup minh vs nha!!

One day in 1963, a dolphin named Elvar and a famous astronomer, Carl Sagan, were playing a little game. The astronomer was visiting an institute which was looking into the way dolphins communicate with each other. He was standing at the edge of one of tanks where several of these highly intelligent, friendly creatures were kept. Elvar had just swum up alongside him and had turned on his back. He wanted Sagan to scratch his stomach again, as the astronomer had done twice before. But this time Elvar was too deep in the water for Sagan to reach him. Elvar looked up at Sagan, waiting. Then, after a minute or so, the dolphin leapt up through the water into the air and made a sound just like the words "More!"

The astonished astronomer went to the director of the institute and told him about the incident.

"Oh, yes. That´s one of the words he knows," the director said, showing no surprise at all.

Dolphins have bigger brains in proportion to their body size than humans have, and it has been known for a long time that they can make a number of sounds.

D The new republic faced enemies on all sides in the form of the forces of Britain, Austria, Holland, Prussia and Spain.

E In August 1794, it carried its first message, the news of Napoleon's victory at Le Quenoy.

F A system was built between London and the south coast, and other countries followed.

War has been called 'the mother of invention', and this was certainly true in the French Revolutionary wars in 1792. 1 | D | What the Revolutionary Government urgently needed was a reliable system of communication.

Claude Chappe, who was a priest and an engineer, had developed a telegraph system, but had not been able to test it fully. However, his brother Ignace was a member of the government, and arranged for Claude's system to be tested. It turned out to be a great success and started a new form of high-speed communication.

The two brothers had a series of towers built 5 to 10 km apart. At the top of each tower was a tall wooden mast, and they attached one horizontal and two vertical wooden beams to this mast. Claude called this system 'semaphore', which comes from the Greek meaning 'bearing a sign'. 2 ( )

Operators in each tower watched neighbouring towers through a telescope and then passed the message on to the next one in the line. The first line stretched from Paris to Lille, a distance of 2.40 km. 3 ( ). At an average speed of three signals a minute, it was carried in 20 minutes, more than 90 times faster than messengers on horseback.

Once the value of Chappe's system was understood, it soon became the standard method of communication in Europe. 4 ( ). By the time the electric telegraph was developed, France had more than 550 semaphore towers stretching 4,800km.

Unfortunately, Chappe's system had some disadvantages. 5 ( ) The towers were also expensive to maintain and the cost of staff was high. In the end, Chappe was depressed by these criticisms of his inventions and by claims from other engineers that they had invented semaphore, and he committed suicide in 1805.

One day in 1963, a dolphin named Elvar and a famous astronomer, Carl Sagan, were playing a little game. The astronomer was visiting an institute which was looking into the way dolphins communicate with each other. He was standing at the edge of one of tanks where several of these highly intelligent, friendly creatures were kept. Elvar had just swum up alongside him and had turned on his back. He wanted Sagan to scratch his stomach again, as the astronomer had done twice before. But this time Elvar was too deep in the water for Sagan to reach him. Elvar looked up at Sagan, waiting. Then, after a minute or so, the dolphin leapt up through the water into the air and made a sound just like the words "More!"

The astonished astronomer went to the director of the institute and told him about the incident.

"Oh, yes. That´s one of the words he knows," the director said, showing no surprise at all.

Dolphins have bigger brains in proportion to their body size than humans have, and it has been known for a long time that they can make a number of sounds. What is more, these sounds seem to have different functions, such as warning each other of danger. Sound travels much faster and further in water than it does in air. That is why the parts of the brain that deal with sound are much better developed in dolphins than in humans. But can it be said that dolphins have a "language", in the real sense of the word?

"The dummies do not have the talent, to see how long it takes, and soon be eliminated."

In Vpop, this statement does not seem strange to people who have known the name Son Tung M-TP. As a matter of fact, for a long time, the products of the Thai Binh singer have been attributed to the two words "borrowed", and none of the products have been put on the analysis table. . Many people said that the fun to find the "copy" in the products of Son Tung M-TP seems to have become a "specialty" in him.

However, it can not be denied the hot music of Tung M-TP between the music market today, the listening and the view. It can be seen, despite the negative is always towards him, but the rising popularity is undeniable. Not to say, in the three most recent music of Son Tung is "We do not belong together", "Lac Loi" and "This place has English", can see the huge growth in the number of people The view during the launch of this MV is very impressive. If "We do not belong together" reached 3 million views of the day, "Lost" a day more than 4 million, the latest MV "This place has him" reached 7 million. With this data, Son Tung M-TP even leads the world according to an international statistical website, and this is almost impossible for a country with a small music background like in Vietnam.

If you just look at the market around Son Tung, people can say he is the catch-lucky. But look more closely, everyone knows if it is only live by the dash, this young singer will never be able to touch the "terrible" achievements. Is luck, talent, or good strategy? The key to opening the door explains "the bomb is hot" - Son Tung M-TP is still the answer many people love - haters curious male singer.

"This is not the time to decipher the Son Tung M-TP phenomenon, he has been recognized already!"
If 3 or 4 years ago, Vpop was still saturated with the music in the safe frame, or often the opposite reaction when a product is affected by the color Kpop is popular, then Son Tung's "carefree" made music out of the invisible boundaries. This "Kpop purity" led him to be severely criticized but scored "strongly" for young audiences who were waiting for something new that they never experienced.

"This is not the time to decipher the Son Tung M-TP phenomenon, he has been recognized already!"
Not only catch up with the trend of music world, Son Tung's works have very own attraction that rare Vietnamese artists do. This is reflected in the tone of the ear and the lyrics are very attractive, attractive. The key phrases that are easy to remember are repeated like "Not the right kind", "Please be the younger of yesterday", "We do not belong together" ... are heard by the mouth quickly. Making the song more pervasive, encouraging people to listen. Assuming concur with the question of music imitation, at least can not deny the catch phrase, pure Vietnamese is still the stamp of Son Tung M-TP.

For those who underestimate the tone of Son Tung, do not forget Thai Binh singers who have graduated from Ho Chi Minh City Conservatory of Music 2012, show that his voice is highly valued in an abandoned environment. Through all the elements of appearance, entertainment. Although not possessing the vocal "terror", the pronunciation is bold "region", but male singers are smart to turn that into their own characteristics. His improvisation, improvisation and individuality help him not get confused whether to sing lyrical or exciting music.

Can be compared, Son Tung's voice mixed with rice cake or chili salt toast. No nutrition expert can carry out the assessment, weigh the same with other sorceries, and enjoy the people do not need to bother what they like, they "eat" only.

In addition, the effective handshake with the leading music producers such as Slim V, Triple D, Long Halo, Khac Hung ... show that Son Tung also have a lot of expertise and sensitive ears. of a manufacturer to be able to communicate all that he needs. Little is known, most of Son Tung's songs are released by the market himself and built at home, in order to keep full of emotions and personal colors without being controlled by anyone. Vietnamese artists who are capable of doing this should only count on their fingers.

"This is not the time to decipher the Son Tung M-TP phenomenon, he has been recognized already!"
As can be seen, Son Tung's great success lies in separating his "color" from the market in the midst of the time full of young artists with a personality almost a color. With good looks, stylish Korean style, the male singer first hit the needs of the view and the curiosity of the young audience. This is considered a very successful direction of Son Tung. Because in the age of development of the media and technology today, any artist has a head

"Những cái đầu không có tài năng, để xem nó cần bao lâu, và sớm được loại bỏ."

Trong Vpop, tuyên bố này không có vẻ lạ đối với những người đã biết tên Son Tung M-TP. Trên thực tế, trong một thời gian dài, các sản phẩm của ca sĩ Thái Bình đã được cho là do hai từ "mượn", và không có sản phẩm nào được đưa vào bảng phân tích. . Nhiều người cho rằng việc tìm kiếm "bản sao" trong sản phẩm của Sơn Tùng M-TP dường như đã trở thành một "đặc sản" trong anh ta.

Tuy nhiên, không thể phủ nhận âm nhạc nóng bỏng của Tung M-TP giữa thị trường âm nhạc hiện nay, nghe và nhìn. Nó có thể được nhìn thấy, mặc dù tiêu cực là luôn luôn đối với anh ta, nhưng sự phổ biến ngày càng tăng là không thể phủ nhận. Không phải để nói, trong ba âm nhạc gần đây nhất của Sơn Tùng là "Chúng tôi không thuộc về nhau", "Lạc Lợi" và "Nơi này có tiếng Anh", có thể thấy sự tăng trưởng rất lớn trong số người Quan điểm trong việc ra mắt MV này rất ấn tượng. Nếu "Chúng tôi không thuộc về nhau" đã đạt tới 3 triệu lượt xem trong ngày, "Lost" một ngày hơn 4 triệu, MV mới nhất "This place has him" đã lên tới 7 triệu. Với dữ liệu này, Son Tung M-TP thậm chí dẫn đầu thế giới theo một trang web thống kê quốc tế, và hầu như không thể cho một quốc gia có nền âm nhạc nhỏ như ở Việt Nam.

Nếu bạn chỉ nhìn vào thị trường xung quanh Sơn Tùng, mọi người có thể nói anh ấy là người may mắn. Nhưng hãy nhìn kỹ hơn, mọi người đều biết nếu nó chỉ sống động bằng gạch ngang, ca sĩ trẻ này sẽ không bao giờ có thể chạm vào những thành tựu "khủng khiếp". Có may mắn, tài năng, hoặc chiến lược tốt? Chìa khóa để mở cánh cửa giải thích "quả bom đang nóng" - Sơn Tùng M-TP vẫn là câu trả lời nhiều người yêu thích - ghét các ca sĩ nam tò mò.

"Đây không phải là thời điểm để giải mã hiện tượng Sơn Tùng M-TP, anh đã được công nhận!"
Nếu 3 hoặc 4 năm trước đây, Vpop vẫn còn bão hoà với âm nhạc trong khung cảnh an toàn, hoặc thường là phản ứng ngược lại khi một sản phẩm bị ảnh hưởng bởi màu sắc Kpop rất phổ biến, sau đó Sơn Tùng "vô tư" làm nhạc ra khỏi ranh giới vô hình. "Sự tinh khiết của Kpop" đã khiến anh bị chỉ trích nặng nề nhưng đã ghi được "mạnh mẽ" cho những khán giả trẻ đang chờ đợi một cái gì đó mới mẻ mà họ chưa bao giờ trải qua.

"Đây không phải là thời điểm để giải mã hiện tượng Sơn Tùng M-TP, anh đã được công nhận!"
Không chỉ bắt kịp với xu hướng âm nhạc thế giới, tác phẩm của Sơn Tùng đã thu hút rất nhiều sự chú ý của các nghệ sỹ Việt Nam hiếm hoi. Điều này được phản ánh trong giọng điệu của tai và lời bài hát rất hấp dẫn, hấp dẫn. Những cụm từ quan trọng dễ nhớ được lặp lại như "Không phải dạng vừa đâu", "Hãy em của ngày hôm qua", "Chúng ta không thuộc về nhau" ... được nghe và truyền miệng một cách nhanh chóng. Làm cho bài hát trở nên phổ biến, khuyến khích mọi người lắng nghe. Giả sử đồng ý với câu hỏi về bắt chước âm nhạc, ít nhất cũng không thể phủ nhận cụm từ bắt chước, người Việt Nam thuần túy vẫn là con dấu của Sơn Tùng M-TP.

Đối với những người đánh giá thấp giọng điệu của Sơn Tùng, đừng quên các ca sĩ Thái Bình đã tốt nghiệp Nhạc viện Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh năm 2012, cho thấy giọng của anh được đánh giá cao trong một môi trường bị bỏ rơi. Thông qua tất cả các yếu tố xuất hiện, giải trí. Mặc dù không có tiếng "khủng bố" nhưng cách phát âm là đậm nét "khu vực", nhưng các ca sĩ nam thông minh lại biến nó thành đặc điểm riêng của họ. Sự ứng tác, ứng biến và cá tính của anh ấy giúp anh ta không bị lẫn lộn khi hát nhạc trữ tình hay nhạc sôi động

Có thể so sánh, giọng của Sơn Tùng trộn với bánh gạo hoặc bánh mì muối muối. Không một chuyên gia dinh dưỡng nào có thể thực hiện việc đánh giá, cân bằng với những thứ phù thuỷ khác và tận hưởng mọi người không cần phải lo lắng về những gì họ thích, họ "ăn".

Ngoài ra, việc bắt tay một cách hiệu quả với các nhà sản xuất âm nhạc hàng đầu như Slim V, Triple D, Long Halo, Khắc Hưng ... cho thấy Sơn Tùng cũng có nhiều chuyên môn và tai nhạy cảm. của một nhà sản xuất để có thể giao tiếp tất cả những gì anh ta cần. Ít được biết đến, hầu hết các bài hát của Sơn Tùng đều được phát hành bởi chính thị trường và được xây dựng ở nhà, để giữ đầy cảm xúc và màu sắc cá nhân mà không bị ai kiểm soát. Các nghệ sỹ Việt Nam có khả năng làm việc này chỉ nên dựa vào ngón tay của họ.

"Đây không phải là thời điểm để giải mã hiện tượng Sơn Tùng M-TP, anh đã được công nhận!"
Như thể thấy, thành công lớn của Sơn Tùng là tách "màu sắc" của mình ra khỏi thị trường giữa thời đại đầy đủ của các nghệ sỹ trẻ với một nhân cách gần như một màu sắc. Với ngoại hình đẹp, phong cách Hàn Quốc phong cách, nam ca sĩ lần đầu tiên đạt yêu cầu của quan điểm và sự tò mò của khán giả trẻ tuổi. Đây được coi là hướng đi rất thành công của Sơn Tùng. Bởi vì trong thời đại phát triển của phương tiện truyền thông và công nghệ ngày nay, bất kỳ nghệ sĩ nào cũng có đầu
