Đọc kỹ đoạn văn sau và chọn phương án đúng (A hoặc B, C, D) cho mỗi câu từ 31 đến 40 Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since man's inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely understand that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop. Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating effects. No moist-skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the world. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees. 2 31. The title for this passage could be______. A. "Desert Plants" B. "Life Underground" C. "Animal Life in a Desert Environment" D. "Man's Life in a Desert Environment" 32. The word "tissues" in the passage mostly means______. A. "the smallest units of living matter that can exist on their own" B. "collections of cells that form the different parts of humans, animals and plants" C. "very small living things that cause infectious disease in people, animals and plants" D. "the simplest forms of life that exist in air, water, living and dead creatures and plants" 33. Man can hardly understand why many animals live their whole life in the desert, as______. A. sources of flowing water are rare in a desert B. water is an essential part of his existence C. water composes the greater part of the tissues of living things D. very few large animals are found in the desert 34.

In 1969, the Apollo 11 astronauts made their historic landing on the surface of the Moon. This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study; from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon, scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition. 3 The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon. The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil. Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil. In addition to the Moon soil, astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon: basalt and breccia. Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the Earth. Since basalt is formed under extremely high temperatures, the presence of this type of rock is an indication that the temperature of the Moon was once extremely hot. Breccia, the other kind of rock brought back by the astronauts, was formed during the impact of falling objects on the surface of the Moon. This second type of rock consists of small pieces of rock compressed together by the force of impact. Gases, such as hydrogen and helium, were found in some of the rocks, and scientists believe that these gases were carried to the Moon by the solar wind, the streams of gases that are constantly emitted by the Sun. 41. Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for this passage? A. The Apollo Astronauts B. Soil on the Moon C. What the Moon Is Made Of D. Basalt and Breccia 42. An "abundance" is A. a disorderly pile B. a wealthy bunch C. an insignificant proportion D. a large amount 43. According to the passage, what does Moon soil consist of? A. Hydrogen and helium B. Large chunks of volcanic lava C. Tiny pieces of stones and glass D. Streams of gases 44. The word "spherical" is closest in meaning to A. earthen B. circular C. angular D. amorphous 45. Which of the following was NOT brought back to the Earth by the astronauts? A. Basalt B. Soil C. Breccias D. Plant life 46. An "indication" is A. an exhibition B. a clue C. a denial D. a dictate 47. According to the passage, breccia was formed A. when objects struck the Moon B. from volcanic lava C. when streams of gases hit the surface of the Moon D. from the interaction of helium and hydrogen 48. It is implied in the passage that scientists believe that the gases found in the Moon rocks A. were not originally from the Moon B. were created inside the rocks C. traveled from the Moon to the Sun D. caused the Moon's temperature to rise 49. The word "emitted" is closest in meaning to A. set off B. vaporized C. sent out D. separated 50. It can be inferred from the passage that A. the only items of importance that astronauts brought back from the Moon were rock and soil samples B. scientists learned relatively little from the Moon rock and soil samples C. scientists do not believe that it is necessary to return to the Moon D. rock and soil samples were only some of a myriad of significant items from the Moon. 4 Đọc kỹ đoạn văn sau và chọn phương án đúng (A hoặc B, C, D) cho mỗi chỗ trống từ 51 đến 60.
