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.
Stones that Move
The American southwest is full of deserts. If you ever go there, you might get to see a very
strange event. We are talking something called the sailing stones.
Sometimes, stones in the southwestern desert move by themselves. Wind doesn’t seem to
push them. People and animals don’t touch them. However, these stones still move. Sometimes
they travel more than a hundred meters. They always leave a trail in the sand behind them. This
is useful because we can look at the trail and figure out how far a stone has moved.
How is this possible? How can stones move all by themselves? Scientists have been
studying this for years. People have offered all kinds of theories. One of the earliest theories
was that wind pushes the stones. That theory isn’t correct, because some of the stones weigh
more than 300 kilograms. When it seemed like there was no logical explanation for the sailing
stones, people started coming up with crazier ideas. Some people said that aliens were moving
the stones, and others said that clever people were playing a joke.
Finally, in 2013, a scientist came up with an explanation for the sailing stones. This scientist
normally studies weather on other planets, and when he heard about the sailing stones, he
became interested in them. He found out that ice forms on the bottom of the stones. When that
happens, even a very light wind can push the stone for long distances.
làm thí nghiệm
To prove his theory, the scientist did an experiment. He put a rock in his freezer and let
some ice form on it. Then, he put sand and a little water in a tray. Finally, he put his frozen rock
on top of the sand. When he blew on the rock, it moved. Even when he blew very gently, he had
no problems moving the rock.
Here is something interesting about the sailing stones. Curious people visit the desert in the
southwest to see them. A lot of those people don’t like to hear the scientific explanation for the
sailing stones. Many people prefer to feel that the stones are still a mystery.
36. What was the first theory about the sailing stones?
A. People were playing a joke.
B. Wind pushed them.
C. Ice formed on the bottoms of the stones.
D. Aliens were pushing the stones.

37. What kind of work did the scientist do before he studied the sailing stones?

A. We can know how fast the stones traveled.
B. We can know who is moving them.
C. We can know how heavy the stones are.
D. We can know how far they traveled.

B. Many people don’t believe the scientist’s theory about ice.
C. Fewer people are interested in the sailing stones because they are not a mystery
anymore.
D. Many scientists have different explanations about the sailing stones.

The Film and the Novel: Twilight
When a popular book gets made into a movie, there will always be a debate about whether
the novel or film is better. The filmmakers always have to consider certain things: do they want
to follow the book closely to please dedicated readers, or do they want to change parts of the
book if they don’t translate well on-screen? No matter what they do, there will always be people
who feel the movie will never be as good as the book, people who will love the movie without
ever reading the book, and people who enjoy both.
The vampire series Twilight, by Stephenie Meyer, became so popular that movie companies
wanted to produce it for the big screen. Most Twilight fans were excited about seeing characters
such as Edward and Bella “come to life,” but there were other fans who did not trust the movie
script. They assumed the scriptwriters would change parts of the story to make it seem more
interesting as a movie.
By the time the first Twilight movie was released, millions of people had read the series.
Many of these people went on to watch the film, which made $35.7 million just on its opening
Trang 5
day. While many fans and critics liked it and said the movie more or less followed the book’s
storyline, some fans were not impressed. One change that angered them was that certain sound
effects were added to the movie, such as a “whooshing” sound when the vampires jumped. This
was not mentioned in the book, and many fans felt that it was too distracting.
Those who liked the movie said that they enjoyed the light mood and excitement. This was
very different from the book. The writing in Twilight is dark and gloomy, like many vampire
novels. The movie, however, added more energy to the story and more personality to the
characters. For example, many characters in the book are portrayed as being quiet, and they
spend most of their time at school. But in the movie, the characters are cooler and funnier - one
scene even shows them going surfing together. The director of the first movie, Catherine
Hardwicke, thought it was important for the characters to be believable. She wanted them to
have a wide variety of emotions, since the series is for, and about, teenagers.
In the end, the films were considered a success, even if there were both happy and unhappy
fans. It’s a great accomplishment to make films that are watched by millions of people, and you
can’t expect to be able to please everyone all of the time.

The Most Powerful Force in Space
A black hole is a spot in space that has incredibly powerful gravity. A black hole’s gravity is
so strong that it pulls everything nearby into it. It can pull stars, planets, and other things.
Nothing can escape a black hole. In fact, they are so powerful that even light cannot escape
them.
Scientists first started talking about black holes in the year 1783. That year, one scientist
said that in the universe, there might be places with gravity strong enough to trap light.
However, that scientist didn’t use the term “black hole”. The term “black hole” was invented in
1967.
Black holes are formed when a star dies. When a star dies, it collapses. When that happens,
a huge amount of matter crowds into a very small space. The matter becomes very, very dense.
How much matter are we talking about? Imagine a star that is the size of ten suns. Imagine
fitting that amount of matter into New York City. That is what a black hole is like. Its gravity is
so powerful because it has so much matter.
However, not all black holes are huge. Scientists believe that some black holes are the size
of atoms. Although these black holes are tiny, they might have the same amount of matter that a
mountain has.
We can’t see black holes because they don’t have any light. They are completely invisible.
Scientists can guess where black holes are by studying nearby stars and planets. If gravity
seems to be pulling the stars and planets to one spot, then scientists believe that the spot is a
black hole.
Some people wonder if a black hole could ever destroy the Earth. We do not need to worry
about that. There is no black hole that is close enough to destroy the Earth. The closest black
hole is about 7,800 light years away. In addition, the sun is not big enough to create a black
hole.
36. When are black holes formed?
A. When a new star is formed B. When a planet collapses
Trang 4
C. When two suns crash into each other D. When a star dies
37. How do scientists study black holes?
A. They look at nearby stars. B. They look at the black holes
C. They look at the sun. D. They visit the black holes.
38. Which statement is NOT true?
A. Black holes have very little matter. B. Black holes can be big or small.
C. We can’t see black holes. D. Nothing can escape a black hole
39. Which of the following CAN’T be inferred from the passage?
A. Scientists started studying a black hole in 1967.
B. A black hole is invisible because it traps light.
C. The movement of stars and planets are affected by a nearby black hole
D. A black hole gets its name because it does not have any light.
40. The word “them” in paragraph 1 refers to________.
A. planets B. gravitation C. empty spaces D. black holes
41. The word “collapses” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to
A. fails B. falls inwards
C. breaks down D. becomes unconscious
42. What would be another good title for the passage?
A. Places without Gravity
B. Strong Enough to Pull a Planet
C. Will a Black Hole Destroy the Earth?
D. The Brightest Things in the Universe
Organic Farming: The New Vacation
In 1971, Sue Coppard worked as a secretary in London. While she enjoyed city life, Sue
also missed the countryside where she spent most of her time as a child. So she offered to help
out on a farm, or more specifically, an organic farming programme organized by a nearby
college. She got a few people to volunteer as well, and they spent the weekend doing
“housework,” which involved clearing bushes and cleaning drains. Afterwards, the farm
managers said they could come back anytime to help out.
Sue put a small ad in a magazine, offering people the chance to volunteer at the organic
farm. The volunteer programme grew quickly, and soon other organic farmers joined in, asking
for people to help out. With so many people and farms involved, someone needed to organize
the different groups. A few of the original volunteers started WWOOF (World Wide
Opportunities on Organic Farms) to help volunteers and farmers find one another. Today, at
least 50 different countries have WWOOF organizations, and many other countries have
individual farms that participate in the movement.
While WWOOF is still a weekend activity for some, it now welcomes travellers and people
who visit to live and work on farms for longer periods of time. WWOOF volunteers can stay on
a farm for weeks or even months at a time in exchange for hands-on farming and gardening
Trang 5
experience. The work can be exhausting, but volunteers think it’s worth it. By working on
farms, the volunteers interact with farmers and develop a love for the outdoors and organic
farming. Many travellers now use WWOOFing as a way to visit new countries and experience
new cultures.
As travellers will discover, every WWOOF opportunity is a bit different. In Serbia, you can
find Misa and Olja, a couple whose farm is known for its hard cheeses and for its bread made
from homegrown grains. Finca Amiruca, a farm in Ecuador, teaches volunteers how to grow
peanuts, plantains, and yucca. When volunteering in Japan, you may get to learn about growing
rice.
WWOOF is only one of the many unique volunteer opportunities available. Volunteering is
something that anyone can do, and a wide variety of organizations accept or even welcome
volunteers. So the next time you get the itch to be active on the weekend or on vacation, why
not look for a good cause to spend your energy on?

The World's Smallest Science
Have you ever noticed that our machines are getting smaller? Cell phones, cameras,
computers and everything else look smaller every year. One kind of new science involves
machines that are smaller than we can imagine. The name of this science is nanotechnology.
Nanotechnology means doing science, engineering, and technology at a very, very small
level. In other words, nanotechnology is the science of tiny things. But how tiny is the science
of nanotechnology? In nanotechnology, scientists work with things that are the size of a
nanometer. One meter has one billion nanometers. Here is another way to describe
nanotechnology: it is the science of observing and controlling individual atoms and molecules.
Nanotechnology is a new word, but the idea of studying atoms and molecules has existed
for a long time. In 1959, an American scientist Richard Phillips Feynman gave a speech in
which he claimed that we can see and control molecules and atoms. About ten years later, a
Japanese professor came up with the term “nanotechnology”.
Because nanotechnology is so new, we are only starting to understand how we can use it.
Nanotechnology could be very useful in medicine. In the future, doctors may use
nanotechnology to help with organ transplants. An organ transplant is the act of putting an
organ into another person's body. Scientists think that with nanotechnology, they might be able
to make a person's body accept a foreign organ. Nanotechnology might also help doctors fight
infections, find diseases in patients, and deliver medicine to the right spot in patients’ bodies.
Nanotechnology might also be useful in protecting the environment. It might be able to help
us save energy, reduce waste, and keep water clean. For example, nanotechnology might be
able to make some materials such as steel stronger. If we have stronger steel, we will be able to
use it longer. That way, we can produce less steel and save our resources.
Nanotechnology might be useful in so many ways. This science of studying tiny things
could change the world.
36. Around what year did people start using the word “nanotechnology”?
A. 1959 B. 1969 C. 1979 D. 1089
37. The word “which” in paragraph 3 refers to________.
A. nanotechnology B. the speech C. atom study D. the article
38. What does the word “foreign” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Fake B. From another country
C. From another person’s body D. Real
39. What does the first sentence of the fourth paragraph mean?
A. Nanotechnology is new, so we are still learning about its uses.
B. Nanotechnology is not new, so we already know its uses.
C. We have no idea how we are going to use nanotechnology.
