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 46 to 50.

Transportation accounts for up to one–third of greenhouse gas emissions from the world’s biggest cities and traffic is the largest source of toxic air pollution. To create sustainable, healthy and liveable cities, we need to increase the number of cyclists on our streets, and that means getting more women on their bikes. In San Francisco, only 29% of cyclists are women; in Barcelona, there are three male cyclists for every female cyclist; in London, 37% of cyclists are female.

Surveys reveal that potential cyclists of all genders are deterred by similar concerns, including aggressive and speeding drivers, the threat posed by large vehicles such as lorries and buses, and bike theft. However, women disproportionately view protected cycle lanes as a more urgent priority. According to research about women and cycling in San Francisco, cities should invest in protected cycle lanes with consistent and clear signage that function as a joined–up network to encourage female riders. Together with more secure cycle parking, these infrastructure investments would make cycling safer, supporting those who already cycle and encouraging those who do not yet ride.

People do what they perceive to be possible. Research in San Francisco found that women, especially women of colour, felt that “people like me” do not cycle. Similarly, 49% of people in London say they do not feel cycling is for “people like them”. More diverse and inclusive imagery of cyclists (in policy documents, in the media and on city streets) could help challenge these perceptions and make more people feel that cycling is for everyone. Social events that enable women to try cycling in a relaxed environment, perhaps as part of a buddy or mentor system that pairs experienced cyclists with those newer to cycling, can help make cycling more accessible and inclusive, along with approaches such as female–led maintenance classes.

The different decisions men and women make about cycling are not only based on issues of convenience or comfort. People’s perceptions of safety influence how, when, where and why they travel. Women and girls learn early on to worry about their personal safety when out and about, and to change their behaviour, dress, speech and travel patterns to avoid sexual harassment or violence. Cities must take women’s and girls’ safety considerations seriously through initiatives such as safety audits.

What is the passage mainly about?

A. Ways to enable women to cycle in a relaxed environment.

B. Women learn to avoid sexual harassment or violence.

C. How to make cycling safer for women.

D. How to get more women cycling in cities.

Bài đọc chủ yếu nói về điều gì?

  A. Cách cho phép phụ nữ đạp xe trong một môi trường thoải mái.

  B. Phụ nữ học cách tránh quấy rối tình dục hoặc bạo lực.

  C. Cách đi xe đạp an toàn hơn cho phụ nữ.

  D. Làm thế nào để có được nhiều phụ nữ đi xe đạp trong thành phố.

Chọn D

Dịch bài đọc:

Giao thông vận tải chiếm tới một phần ba lượng khí thải nhà kính từ các thành phố lớn nhất thế giới và giao thông là nguồn ô nhiễm không khí độc hại lớn nhất. Để tạo ra các thành phố bền vững, lành mạnh và đáng sống, chúng ta cần tăng số lượng người đi xe đạp trên đường phố của chúng ta, và điều đó có nghĩa là có thêm phụ nữ trên xe đạp của họ. Ở San Francisco, chỉ có 29% người đi xe đạp là phụ nữ; ở Barcelona, có ba người đi xe đạp nam cho mỗi người đi xe đạp nữ; ở London, 37% người đi xe đạp là nữ.

Các cuộc khảo sát cho thấy những người đi xe đạp tiềm năng của tất cả các giới đều bị ngăn cản bởi những mối quan tâm tương tự, bao gồm cả những người lái xe hung hăng và chạy quá tốc độ, mối đe dọa từ các phương tiện lớn như xe tải và xe buýt và trộm cắp xe đạp. Tuy nhiên, phụ nữ không cân xứng xem các làn đường được bảo vệ là ưu tiên cấp bách hơn. Theo nghiên cứu về phụ nữ và đi xe đạp ở San Francisco, các thành phố nên đầu tư vào các làn đường được bảo vệ với các biển báo phù hợp và rõ ràng có chức năng như một mạng lưới liên kết để khuyến khích các tay đua nữ. Cùng với việc đỗ xe theo chu kỳ an toàn hơn, các khoản đầu tư cơ sở hạ tầng này sẽ giúp việc đạp xe an toàn hơn, hỗ trợ những người đã đạp xe và khuyến khích những người chưa đi xe.

Mọi người làm những gì họ cảm nhận được là có thể. Nghiên cứu tại San Francisco đã phát hiện ra rằng phụ nữ, đặc biệt là phụ nữ da màu, cảm thấy rằng những người người Hồi giáo như tôi không đi xe đạp. Tương tự như vậy, 49% người dân ở London nói rằng họ không cảm thấy việc đi xe đạp là dành cho những người như họ. Hình ảnh đa dạng và toàn diện hơn về người đi xe đạp (trong các tài liệu chính sách, trên phương tiện truyền thông và trên đường phố thành phố) có thể giúp thách thức những nhận thức này và khiến nhiều người cảm thấy rằng đạp xe là dành cho tất cả mọi người. Các sự kiện xã hội cho phép phụ nữ thử đạp xe trong một môi trường thoải mái, có thể là một phần của hệ thống bạn bè hoặc người cố vấn kết hợp người đi xe đạp có kinh nghiệm với người mới đi xe đạp, có thể giúp đi xe đạp dễ tiếp cận và toàn diện hơn, cùng với các phương pháp như bảo trì do phụ nữ các lớp học.

Những quyết định khác nhau mà đàn ông và phụ nữ đưa ra về việc đi xe đạp không chỉ dựa trên các vấn đề về sự thuận tiện hay thoải mái. Mọi người nhận thức về sự an toàn ảnh hưởng như thế nào, khi nào, ở đâu và tại sao họ đi du lịch. Phụ nữ và trẻ em gái học sớm để lo lắng về sự an toàn cá nhân của họ khi ra ngoài và thay đổi hành vi, cách ăn mặc, lời nói và cách đi lại để tránh quấy rối tình dục hoặc bạo lực. Các thành phố phải coi trọng phụ nữ và các cô gái nghiêm túc về vấn đề an toàn thông qua các sáng kiến như kiểm toán an toàn.

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   22  to  26

A.   Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.

The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the mast impressive Seven Wonders of the World. Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake TonIe Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia, Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century. The ruins of Angkor are documented as same .of the mast impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only beginning to ponder. The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water.

One possible explanation far the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to do with the inhabitants' irrigation system. The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River. Once filled, they were used to irrigate the surrounding rice patties and farmland during the course of the year. Farmers were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop. Without consistent irrigation, the farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production.

Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs and canals broke down. The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces required an enormous amount of physical labor. In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor. In order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently. After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity. Soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply. With less food available, the people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle. Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure.

22. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Modern day agricultural procedures in Cambodia.

B. A possible explanation for the, decline of a civilization.

C. The essential role water plays in farming.

D. Religious temples of the ancient Khmer Empire.

23. The passage preceding the passage most likely discusses ______.

A. architecture of ancient Asian civilization

B. religious practices of the people of Angkor

C. the form of government practiced by the Khmer Empire

D. the other six wonders of the world

24. According to the passage, Lake Tonle Sap in Cambodia ______.

A. is an enormous fresh body of water in Asia

B. was unable to supply enough fish for the people of Angkor

C. became polluted due to a population explosion

D. is one of the Seven Wonders of the World

25. Why does the author mention the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs?

A. They supplied irrigation from the Indian Ocean.

B. They became non-functional due to overuse.

C. They were destroyed by nearby warrior tribes.

D. They helped transport the sandstones for constructing temples.

26. It can be inferred from the passage that the inhabitants of the Khmer Empire ______.

A. were intentionally starved by the farmers

B. lost their food source due to excess rainfall

C. supplemented their diets with 'meat hunted in the nearby jungles

D. depended upon rice as their main source of food

27. All the following are mentioned as events that can affect food supply EXCEPT.

A. erosion of soil                                       B. contamination of soil

C. reduction of nutrients                            D. loss of water supply
