PASSAGE 1 – Questions 1-10


Basic to any understanding of Canada in 20 years after the Second World War is the
country's impressive population growth. For every three Canadians in 1945, there
were over five in 1996. In September 1966 Canada's population passed the 20 million
mark. Most of this surging growth came from natural increase. The depression of the
1930's and the war had held back marriages and the catching – up process began after
1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the 1950's, producing a
population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956. This
rate of increase had been exceeded only once before in Canada's history, in the decade
before 1911, when the prairies were being settled. Undoubtedly, the good economic
conditions of the 1950's supported a growth in the population, but the expansion also
derived from a trend toward earlier marriages and an increase in the average size of
families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood at 28 per thousand, one of the highest
in the world.

After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued
falling until in 1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline
reflected the low level of births during the depression and the war, but it was also
caused by changes in Canadian society. Young people were staying at school longer,
more women were working, young married couples were buying automobiles or
houses before starting families, rising living standards were cutting down the size of
families. It appeared that Canada was once
more falling in step with the trend toward

25
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng

smaller families that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the
Industrial Revolution.

Although the growth in Canada's population has slowed down by 1966(the increase in
the first half of the 1960's was only nine percent). Another large population wave was
coming over the horizon. It would be composed of the children of the children who
were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to 1957.

1. What does the passage mainly discuss?


A. Educational changes in Canadian society
B. Canada during the Second World War
C. Population trends in postwar Canada
D. Standards of living in Canada
2. According to the passage, when did Canada's baby boom begin?
A. In the decade after 1911
B. After 1945
C. During the depression of the 1930's
D. In 1966

PASSAGE 2 – Questions 11-20


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 in
adequate 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
and buy only expensive organic foods
instead.

PASSAGE 3 – Questions 21-30


There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one
most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that drama evolved from
ritual. The argument for this view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings
viewed the natural forces of the world, even the seasonal changes, as unpredictable,
and they sought through various means, to control these unknown and feared powers.
Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then retained and
repeated until they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose which
explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some rituals were
abandoned, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art
and drama.

Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites
contained the seed of theater because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost
always used. Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances, and
when the entire community did not participate, a clear division was usually made
between the "acting area" and the "auditorium." In addition, there were performers,
and since considerable importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in the
enactment of rites, religious leaders usually assumed that task. Wearing masks and
costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and
mimed the desired effect - success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the
Sun - as an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representations were separated from
religious activities.

Another theory traces the theater's origin from the human interest in storytelling.
According to this view, tales (about the hunt, war, or other feats) are gradually
elaborated, at first through the use of
impersonation, action, and dialogue by a

31

narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A
closely related theory traces theater to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and
gymnastic or that are imitations of animal movements and sounds.

PASSAGE 4 – Questions 31-40


Staggering tasks confronted the people of the United States, North and South,
when the Civil war ended. About a million and a half soldiers from both sides had to
be demobilized, readjusted to civilian life, and reabsorbed by the devastated
economy. Civil government also had to be put back on a peacetime basis and
interference from the military had to be stopped.

The desperate plight of the South has eclipsed the fact that reconstruction had to
be undertaken also in the North, though less spectacularly. Industries had to adjust to
peacetime conditions, factories had to be retooled for civilian needs.

Financial problems loomed large in both the North and the South. The national
debt had shot up from a modest $65 million in 1861, the year the ear started to nearly
$3 billion in 1865, the year the war ended. This was a colossal sum for those days but
one that a prudent government could pay. At the same time, war taxes had to be
reduced to less burdensome levels.

Physical devastation caused by invading armies, chiefly in the South and border
states, had to be repaired. This herculean task was ultimately completed, but with
discouraging slowness. Other important questions needed answering. What would be
the future of the four million black people who were freed from slavery? On what
basis were the Southern states to be brought back into the Union?

What of the Southern leaders, all of whom were liable to charges of treason? One
of these leaders, Jefferson Davis, President of the Southern Confederacy, was the
subject of an insulting popular Northern
song, "Hang Jeff Davis from a Sour Apple

34

Tree." And even children sang it. Davis was temporarily chained in his prison cell
during the early days of his two-year imprisonment. But he and the other Southern
leaders were finally released, partly because it was unlikely that a jury from
Virginia, a Southern Confederate state, would convict them. All the leaders were
finally pardoned by President Johnson in 1868 in an effort to help reconstruction
efforts proceed with as little bitterness as possible.

31. What does the passage mainly discuss?


A. Wartime expenditures

C. Methods of repairing the damage caused by the war
D. The results of government efforts to revive the economy
32. The word "Staggering" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to

PASSAGE 1 – Questions 1-10


The Glen Nevis River Race
Glen Nevis is known as the. ‘outdoor capital’ of Scotland. Britain’s highest mountain,
Ben Nevis, rises above the area, while the waters of the River Nevis flow through the
rocky valley below. The spectacular scenery attracts walkers and climbers all through
the seasons, despite the cold weather in winter.

During the summer months, one of the most exciting activities is the annual Glen
Nevis River Race, in which competitors uses a lilo, a plastic bed filled with air
normally used for camping or floating in the sea, or another kind of beach toy to race
along the river. There are rocks, waterfalls and sections with scary names like Dead
Dog Pool and the Leg Breaker for them to get through though there are areas of
calmer waters too.

Competitors set off at 30 second intervals by jumping with their lilos from a tiny shelf
in a rock into the fast-flowing water 12 metres below. It can take anything from 20
minutes to over two hours to complete the course, depending on the level of the river
and the abilities of the competitor.

There is much discussion amongst people who take part regularly about which type of
lilo works best for the race. Some prefer short wide ones, while others say that a long
narrow one is better. But since you can use

37
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng
Quét ngay!!!
anything that floats, all kinds of beach toys such as bananas, sharks and crocodiles can
be floating down the river.

The only rules are that competitors must be at least 16 years old, and should provide
their own crash helmet, a rubber wet suit and a life jacket. Gloves and old trainers are
recommended to protect against knocks and bumps. The most important qualification,
however, is a sense of fun.

The race is full of exciting moments, and the greatest of these is at the Lower Falls
Leap, where terrified competitors have to jump over a ten-metre waterfall not far from
the finish. More than 3,000 athletes have taken part in the race during its 30-year
history. Their £30 entry fee helps to raise money for the mountain rescue team, whose
members provide an essential service in the region for free. The race is a popular
afternoon out for visitors and it costs nothing to watch, although any money given is
gratefully accepted.

The prizes may not be fantastic, but everyone receives a certificate of completion and
the winner gets the tittle River Race Champion and all agree that it has been worth it
for the satisfying feeling of reaching the end safely.

PASSAGE 2 – Questions 11-20


Robert Capa
Robert Capa is a name that has for many years been synonymous with war
photography. Born in Hungary in 1913 as Friedmann Endre Ernő, Capa was forced to
leave his native country after his involvement in anti-government protests. Capa had
originally wanted to become a writer, but after his arrival in Berlin had first found
work as a photographer. He later left Germany and moved to France due to the rise in
Nazism. He tried to find work as a freelance journalist and it was here that he changed
his name to Robert Capa, mainly because he thought it would sound more American.

In 1936, after the breakout of the Spanish Civil war, Capa went to Spain and it was
here over the next three years that he built his reputation as a war photographer. It was
here too in 1936 that he took one of his most famous pictures, The Death of a Loyalist
Soldier. One of Capa’s most famous quotes was 'If your pictures aren't good enough,
you're not close enough.' And he took his
attitude of getting close to the action to an

40
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng
Quét ngay!!!
extreme. His photograph, The Death of a Loyalist Soldier is a prime example of this
as Capa captures the very moment the soldier falls. However, many have questioned
the authenticity of this photograph, claiming that it was staged.

When World war II broke out, Capa was in New York, but he was soon back in
Europe covering the war for Life magazine. Some of his most famous work was
created on 6th June 1944 when he swam ashore with the first assault on Omaha Beach
in the D-Day invasion of Normandy. Capa, armed only with two cameras, took more
than one hundred photographs in the first hour of the landing, but a mistake in the
darkroom during the drying of the film destroyed all but eight frames. It was the
images from these frames however that inspired the visual style of Steven Spielberg's
Oscar winning movie ‘Saving Private Ryan’. When Life magazine published the
photographs, they claimed that they were slightly out of focus, and Capa later used
this as the title of his autobiographical account of the war.

Capa’s private life was no less dramatic. He was friend to many of Hollywood’s
directors, actors and actresses. In 1943 he fell in love with the wife of actor John
Austin. His affair with her lasted until the end of the war and became the subject of his
war memoirs. He was at one time lover to actress Ingrid Bergman. Their relationship
finally ended in 1946 when he refused to settle in Hollywood and went off to Turkey.

In 1947 Capa was among a group of photojournalists who founded Magnum Photos.
This was a co-operative organisation set up to support photographers and help them to
retain ownership of the copyright to their work.

Capa went on to document many other wars. He never attempted to glamorise war
though, but to record the horror. He once said, "The desire of any war photographer is
to be put out of business."

Capa died as he had lived. After promising not to photograph any more wars, he
accepted an assignment to go to Indochina to cover the first Indochina war. On May
25th 1954 Capa was accompanying a French regiment when he left his jeep to take
some photographs of the advance and
stepped on a land mine. He was taken to a

41
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng
Quét ngay!!!
nearby hospital, still clutching his camera, but was pronounced dead on arrival. He left
behind him a testament to the horrors of war and a standard for photojournalism that
few others have been able to reach.

Capa’s legacy has lived on though and in 1966 his brother Cornell founded the
International Fund for Concerned Photography in his honor. There is also a Robert
Capa Gold Medal, which is given to the photographer who publishes the best
photographic reporting from abroad with evidence of exceptional courage. But
perhaps his greatest legacy of all are the haunting images of the human struggles that
he captured.

PASSAGE 3 – Questions 21-30


The perfume story

The craft of perfumery has an ancient and global heritage. The art flourished in
Ancient Rome, where the emperors were said to bathe in scent. After the fall of Rome,
much of the knowledge was lost, but survived in Islamic civilizations in the Middle
Ages. Arab and Persian pharmacists developed essential oils from the aromatic plants
of the Indian peninsula. They developed the
processes of distillation and suspension in

44
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng
Quét ngay!!!
alcohol, which allowed for smaller amounts of raw materials to be used than in the
ancient process, by which flower petals were soaked in warm oil. This knowledge was
carried back to European monasteries during the Crusades.

At first, the use of fragrances was primarily associated with healing. Aromatic
alcoholic waters were ingested as well as used externally. Fragrances were used to
purify the air, both for spiritual and health purposes. During the Black Death, the
bubonic plague was thought to have resulted from a bad odour which could be averted
by inhaling pleasant fragrances such as cinnamon. The Black Death led to an aversion
to using water for washing, and so perfume was commonly used as a cleaning agent.

Later on, the craft of perfume re-entered Europe, and was centred in Venice, chiefly
because it was an important trade route and a centre for glass-making. Having such
materials at hand was essential for the distillation process. In the late seventeenth
century, trade soared in France, when Louis XIV brought in policies of protectionism
and patronage which stimulated the purchase of luxury goods. Here, perfumery was
the preserve of glove-makers. The link arose since the tanning of leather required
putrid substances. Consequently, the gloves were scented before they were sold and
worn. A glove and perfume makers’ guild had existed here since 1190. Entering it
required 7 years of formal training under a master perfumer.

The trade in perfume flourished during the reign of Louis XV, as the master glove-
and-perfume makers, particularly those trading in Paris, received patronage from the
royal court, where it is said that a different perfume was used each week. The
perfumers diversified into other cosmetics including soaps, powders, white face paints
and hair dyes. They were not the sole sellers of beauty products. Mercers, spicers,
vinegar-makers and wig-makers were all cashing in on the popularity of perfumed
products. Even simple shopkeepers were coming up with their own concoctions to
sell.

During the eighteenth century, more modern, capitalist perfume industry began to
emerge, particularly in Britain where there
was a flourishing consumer society. In
France, the revolution initially disrupted the
45
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng
Quét ngay!!!
perfume trade due to its association with aristocracy, however, it regained momentum
later as a wider range of markets were sought both in the domestic and overseas
markets. The guild system was abolished in 1791, allowing new high-end perfumery
shops to open in Paris.

Perfume became less associated with health in 1810 with a Napoleonic ordinance
which required perfumers to declare the ingredients of all products for internal
consumption. Unwilling to divulge their secrets, traders concentrated on products for
external use. Napoleon affected the industry in other ways too. With French ports
blockaded by the British during the Napoleonic wars, the London perfumers were able
to dominate the markets for some time.

One of the significant changes in the nineteenth century was the idea of branding.
Until then, trademarks had had little significance in the perfumery where goods were
consumed locally, although they had a long history in other industries. One of the
pioneers in this field was Rimmel who was nationalized as a British citizen in 1857.
He took advantage of the spread of railroads to reach customers in wider markets. To
do this, he built a brand which conveyed prestige and quality, and were worth paying
a premium for. He recognised the role of design in enhancing the value of his
products, hiring a French lithographer to create the labels for his perfume bottles.

PASSAGE 4 – Questions 31-40
Armenian Culture

The Armenians became active in literature and many art forms at a very early point in
their civilization. Metalworking and architecture have been traced back to about 1000
B.C. The beginning of truly national art is usually fixed at the onset of the Christian
era. The three great artistic periods coincided with times of independence or semi-
independence: from the fifth to the seventh century; the Bagratid golden age of the
ninth and tenth centuries; and the era of the kingdom of Lesser Armenia in the twelfth
to fourteenth centuries.

Of especially high quality in the earlier periods were works in gold and bronze, as
well as temples, military fortifications, and aqueducts. In the early Christian era,
classical church architecture was adapted in a series of cathedrals. The circular domes
typical of Armenian churches were copied in Western Europe and in Ottoman Turkey.
The best example of the distinctive architectural sculpture used to adorn such churches
is the early tenth-century Church of the Holy Cross on an island in Lake Van. The
architecture of contemporary Erevan is distinguished by the use of pinkish tufa stone
and a combination of traditional Armenian and Russian styles.

Armenian painting is generally considered to have originated with the illumination of


religious manuscripts that thrived from the ninth to the seventeenth century. Armenian
painters in Cilicia and elsewhere enriched Byzantine and Western formulas with their
unique use of color and their inclusion of Oriental themes acquired from the Mongols.
Many unique Armenian illuminated manuscripts remain in museums in the West.

The nineteenth century saw a blooming of Armenian painting. Artists from that
period, such as the portrait painter Hacop Hovnatanian and the seascape artist Ivan
Aivazovsky, continue to enjoy international reputations. Notable figures of the
twentieth century include the unorthodox Alexander Bazhbeuk-Melikian, who lived a
persecuted existence in Tbilisi, and the émigré surrealist Arshile Gorky (pseudonym
of Vosdanik Adoian), who greatly
influenced a generation of young American

50
Săn đầu người nhận ngay quà khủng
Quét ngay!!!
artists in New York. Other émigré painters in various countries have continued the
tradition as well.

The Armenian literary tradition began early in the fifth century A.D. with religious
tracts and histories of the Armenians. The most important of these were written by
Agathangelos, Egishe, Movses Khorenatsi, and Pavstos Buzand. A secular literature
developed in the early modern period, and in the eighteenth century Armenian
Catholic monks of the Mekhitarist order began publishing ancient texts, modern
histories, grammars, and literature. In the nineteenth century, Armenians developed
their own journalism and public theater. Khachatur Abovian wrote the first Armenian
novel, Verk Haiastani (The Wounds of Armenia), in the early 1840s. Armenian
literature and drama often depict struggles against religious and ethnic oppression and
the aspirations of Armenians for security and self-expression.
